Chapter 5086: Holding Back
Editor: Henyee Translations
It was that brat from the Xia family!
The serious-looking Old Master Fu immediately smiled. There was no anger in him anymore. "Hurry up and answer it first. I’ll talk to him after the two of you are done."
Xia Jinyuan didn’t call home directly. Instead, he contacted his grandson first. Old Master Fu thought that there must be something serious, so he waved his hand and asked Li Jinnian to take the call first.
Li Jinnian answered the call and walked away.
He and Xia Jinyuan had known each other for many years. Even though their relationship deepened because of Ye Jian, they rarely contacted each other on their personal phones. No, it should be said that they rarely even had work calls.
Different soldiers had their own things to do. It was hard for them to meet for work and personal matters.
Today, Li Jinnian felt that Xia Jinyuan probably had something serious to say.
Xia Jinyuan, who came out of the military building, was walking toward the cafeteria. It was almost noon. He had been hungry since noon yesterday and urgently needed to fill his hungry stomach.
His stomach needed to be filled, and he needed to ask about serious matters.
The other party picked up the call. When he heard the usual cold voice, Xia Jinyuan wanted to greet his future cousin-in-law first. However, his future cousin-in-law said coldly, "Cut the crap."
"I heard that Old Master Li is already able to get out of bed. It’s said that he hired a top professional rehabilitation medical team from overseas. Is that true?"
Xia Jinyuan didn’t waste any time and asked directly.
A few minutes ago, he learned this information from his father that when he came out of the building. He immediately contacted the duty room of Storm Commando Brigade. When he found out that his future cousin-in-law was on leave, he hurriedly called his private number.
"Yes, the information is correct. Li Ronghuan came back from overseas a year and a half ago," Li Jinnian replied calmly. "Three months ago, the old man could already get out of bed and walk. Now, I heard that he can walk more than a hundred meters."
More than two years ago, Old Master Li suffered a stroke and was bedridden. He didn’t give up on treatment because of this. With his connections, his eldest son, Li Jinnian’s father, got the top medical team in the country to help Old Master Li recover.
A year and a half ago, Old Master Li’s second son, Li Ronghuan, secretly hired a top rehabilitation team from overseas to treat him. It was not difficult to tell that the Li family was also guarding against the outside world. They did not want the outside world to know that Old Master Li, who had already fallen, could stand up again.
Not only did they hide it from outsiders, but they also hid it from Li Jinnian.
After confirming the news, Xia Jinyuan’s handsome face turned cold. "It looks like the Li family has been creating a facade for the past two years. They’re hiding and waiting to make a big move."
Outsiders might think that the Li family had given up, but in fact, they were just no longer as high-profile as before. Even Du Jiayi’s mother, Madam Li, and Old Master Li’s second wife, Second Old Madam Li, had unknowingly kept a low profile for the past two years. Now, there was very little news about the Li family in the capital city.
Everyone would just say similar things, like, ’Alas, the Li family has already gone downhill. The hero has taken a bow and left,’ or ’Old Master Li suffered a stroke and became paralyzed. It’s like a building has collapsed. There’s no way he can rise again’.
Everyone thought that the Li family had collapsed and could not be compared to the past. Who knew that even though Old Master Li had a stroke, he had survived it?
Even Li Jinnian’s second uncle, Li Ronghuan, who only cared about painting in the past and was quite famous, stayed in the country to serve the Old Master Li for more than a year.
The person Li Jinnian had arranged in the Li family told him that the top rehabilitation medical team that came from overseas was invited by his elusive second uncle.
