Chapter 41: Protecting Her
Wu Mei looked straight at him. Her gaze seemed to say, “Are you sure?”
Li Nanchen actually avoided her gaze and his expression turned unusually cold.
He quickly said, “The divorce agreement is in the drawer in the hallway. Sign on it. From now on, the two of us will have nothing to do with each other.”
While he said this, he still used his body to shield Wu Mei from the Li family’s relatives.
Wu Mei did not notice his protective actions. She only felt an indescribable frustration rising in her heart. This was an unfamiliar feeling and she did not like it.
She wanted to leave this place quickly.
“Alright.”
Wu Mei gritted her teeth and sneered. Her expressions turned cold again and she turned to leave.
The divorce had originally been part of her plan as well. It had just been brought forward by a few months.
There’s no need to be angry, she told herself.
Wu Mei did not notice that after she left, Li Nanchen’s eyes were filled with agony as he stared at her back.
It’s not that he doesn’t trust her.
He knows that although Wu Mei had lied to him, her original intention was to save Grandpa. But Grandpa is in a bad condition now, and the police have already arrived.
If anything were to really happen, she would be charged with intentional harm regardless of whether she was doing it out of goodwill.
Right now, a divorce is the best way to protect her.
He would bear the rest of the responsibility.
Seeing Wu Mei leave, all the relatives who were beside Li Nanchen, were indignant and clamored louder than before.
“You’re letting her go just like that? She harmed someone! We should let the police arrest her. How can you let her off?!”
“Exactly! She has to be sentenced!”
With that, the relatives rushed towards the door.
“I dare you to try chasing after her.”
Li Nanchen’s voice was not loud, but his tone was chilly.
Everyone was rooted to the spot.
His emotional fluctuation just now seemed to have only lasted for a moment. Very quickly, Li Nanchen had already calmed down.
First, he instructed the hospital to do their best to monitor Grandpa’s health stats and to prepare for emergency treatment at any time. Then, he looked at Lin Liguo with a sharp gaze.
“I’ve already gotten a divorce, so you’ve achieved your goal. Give me the video now… Don’t think about keeping a backup.”
Lin Liguo’s eyes widened in shock!
He thought that Li Nanchen had divorced Wu Mei because he hated her!
Unexpectedly…
“President Li!”
Lin Liguo yelled, “How can you do this? Wu Mei is the murderer who hurt Old Master Li, yet you helped her cover up the evidence… Ah!”
Before he could finish speaking, Li Nanchen grabbed his collar and slammed him against the wall.
“I’m trying to solve the problem using an amicable solution.”
Li Nanchen’s voice was tense and he clearly didn’t have much patience. “But if you insist on going against me, then… Although it’s foolish to exchange my life for yours, it’s not something that I won’t consider.”
Lin Liguo trembled in fear.
Li Nanchen is threatening him. He’s going to kill him at the risk of committing a crime!
The scariest thing is that he could feel that Li Nanchen was serious!
Lin Liguo’s psychological defenses were crushed. With trembling hands, he took out the camera’s memory card from his pocket and handed it over together with his phone.
“It’s… It’s all here…”
Li Nanchen flung him aside and took the memory card. He broke it in half. Then, he raised his phone, and smashed it on the ground!
Crash!
The phone shattered into pieces and the video disappeared from this world.
Just then, the elevator sounded and the police finally arrived.
“The police received a call…”
After hearing their recount, Li Nanchen neatened his collar. His aura was still intimidating as he said, “Okay, I’ll go with you.”
The hospital was surrounded by reporters.
As soon as they saw Li Nanchen come out, they began pressing him for the details of Old Master Li’s illness.
The reporters’ questions were sharp.
Li Nanchen’s eyes darkened. Before he could speak, he was interrupted by the Li family’s relatives who had followed behind him.
“All of this was done by that b*tch Wu Mei! It was her…”
Before the relative could finish speaking, Li Nanchen stopped them sternly and roared, “Enough!”
His expression was as cold as ice and his sharp gaze swept across those people.
Shocked by his intimidating aura, the relatives shut up.
Li Nanchen’s expression was cold as he stood in front of the camera. His tone was calm and forceful as he said, “Wu Mei and I have already divorced peacefully. Everything that happened today has nothing to do with her.”
With that, he looked at the reporters coldly and said, “Everyone here is a professional. I believe that you will report what happened today truthfully and not spout nonsense, isn’t that right?”
His tone seemed calm, but it was filled with threat.
The reporters cowered. They wanted to ask more, but Li Nanchen had already gotten into the police car.
