The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

The following dishes were more vegetarian and lighter, but they still took a lot of effort to prepare.

Family meals don't need to be fancy; instead, they should be a balanced meal with a good mix of meat and vegetables, so everyone can enjoy a comfortable meal.

Li Tian had already eaten a few bites of cake, and then she only tasted almost every dish before she was full.

Li Yuanchao, who rarely gets to enjoy a good meal, ate with great relish.

It can stimulate people's appetite even more than those food vloggers.

Unfortunately, Li Tian's eyes were bigger than her belly, so being envious was useless.

After the meal, Li Shengli asked Ye Zhao to take the younger children out to digest their food.

Ye Zhao guessed that the father and son had something to say, so she didn't ask any further questions.

After the father and son entered the study, Li Shengli first explained the ins and outs of the Ye Zhengqing incident to Li Yuanchao.

"Chunsheng called back this morning."

"Your uncle did adopt a daughter, who is over twenty years old, but she got married last year and ran off with a small business owner. Her whereabouts are currently unknown."

Li Yuanchao listened quietly.

"The Ye Zhengqing you see now is actually the child of your uncle's neighbor. She must have stolen the letters when your uncle was bedridden."

"As for letters of introduction and such, they're not difficult to obtain."

"What about my uncle?"

Lee Seung-ri sighed, "He's really gone. It happened at the beginning of this year."

"Since it's fake, just get rid of it, Dad. Why are you making things difficult for yourself?"

Li Shengli looked at Li Yuanchao.

Chunsheng said that this person has been away from home for more than a month.

More than a month?

Even if they walked, they would have arrived in the capital long ago.

These days, who's foolish enough to walk on two legs?

"Where did she go and what did she do during those past month or so?"

"Is she still that country girl next door?"

Li Yuanchao could not answer.

"After thinking it over, I think it's best to hand this hot potato over to the people in the National Security Bureau."

Li Yuanchao had no objection.

Since she is suspicious, we cannot let her leave easily.

"Then let's do it your way, I have no objection."

Li Shengli wrote a note to Li Yuanchao, wrote down his contact information, and then burned it with a match.

"Go pick them up by car. Chen Hao has been watching over her at the guesthouse for the past two days."

"Yes."

"Is she that well-behaved? She didn't make a fuss about wanting to go out?"

Lee Seungri snorted.

"How could a grown woman with ulterior motives possibly behave? But once she's on our turf, is it really that hard to make her behave?"

Li Yuanchao smiled and didn't say anything more.

"Dad, is there any progress on the matter of the vandalized vehicle?"

Li Shengli shook his head.

"When I contacted them this morning, I asked them if they had any leads yet. Liu Mingzhao didn't see the person's face clearly at all, only remembered the general shape. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack, very difficult."

"No evidence was left at the scene."

Li Yuanchao thought for a moment and asked.

"To be able to accurately predict your whereabouts and make thorough preparations, you've probably been being watched for a long time!"

Lee Seungri shared the same sentiment.

"They also believe they were being watched in this compound, and they have already arranged for people to investigate."

Li Yuanchao fell silent.

There are those who steal for a thousand days, but there are no those who can guard against thieves for a thousand days.

"It's alright, don't be nervous. I'm just a retired old man, it won't affect me that much. Do you think leaders would stop working or stay home all the time?"

Li Yuanchao kept his head down and didn't speak, but he couldn't come up with a better idea for the time being.

"What did you do last night?"

"Uncle Wang did launch a series of operations, but everything has its procedures. Only a few members of the joint defense team and that group of thugs were immediately detained."

Li Yuanchao pursed his lips.

"These people, at most they'll be locked up or fired."

"This punishment is too lenient on them, barely scratching the surface."

"We found out that the head of the joint defense team was a relative of the director of the local branch bureau, so we followed the trail to his home."

"To catch nature, you have to catch the big fish."

Li Yuanchao gave a cold laugh.

"He must have felt the situation was not good, so he was busy transferring money overnight, and we caught him red-handed."

"That large bag of valuables, along with a secret ledger, is something most people wouldn't dare to take on."

"We could only tie the person up in the trunk for now, and we handed them over to Uncle Wang this morning."

"That guy probably has enough to eat a peanut."

Li Shengli nodded in satisfaction.

"Have you looked at the ledger?"

"I looked at it; it's a record of bribes received, but I didn't see Uncle Wang's name."

Li Shengli didn't ask any further questions; it was better to avoid trouble.

It's enough that I've vented my anger and rid the people of a scourge.

"This matter is over. Don't interfere anymore. Don't worry, none of them on that line will escape."

Li Yuanchao nodded and stood up.

"Dad, I'll go see them off right away."

"Yes, go early and come back early. Since you rarely come back, spend more time with the children."

"understood."

In the afternoon, Li Tian invited Zhu Nan and Yuan Jun to her home.

Birthday cakes are something that no one eats often, so when you have something good, you should naturally share it with your good friends.

After eating the cake, the children happily went outside to play football for a while.

I don't know how the Zhu family comforted Zhu Nan.

After two days off, Li Tian felt that Zhu Nan was in much better condition.

Because we were having a great time, we didn't ask any more questions.

However, Li Yuanchao was nowhere to be seen when it was time for dinner.

That place is right in the city; there's no way they wouldn't be able to get back by now.

Lee Seungri wanted to ask, but ultimately held back.

But I always felt a little flustered, something I couldn't quite explain.

The family was watching TV when suddenly the telephone in the living room rang.

Ye Zhao picked up the microphone first.

"Hello, who is this?"

"What happened? What's wrong with Yuan Chao?"

Upon hearing that Li Yuanchao was being rescued, Ye Zhao panicked and couldn't even hold the microphone.

Li Siwen helped Ye Zhao sit down and quickly grabbed the microphone to ask for more details.

"My brother is at the military hospital. I'll be there right now."

After Li Siwen finished speaking, she dialed the driver's team's number and asked Liu He to take her there.

"Wait, I'll go too."

Ye Zhao couldn't stay at home and wait; she simply couldn't sit still.

Lee Seungri had already stood up.

Ye Zhao looked at the two children and pulled Li Shengli aside.

"Old Li, just wait for news at home. I'm taking Xiao Zhang away."

Li Shengli did not insist any further.

"Siwen, get your mother her medicine."

Li Siwen ran to her parents' bedroom.

"Grandpa, what happened to my dad?"

Li Shengli held Li Tian's hand, overwhelmed with emotion, unsure of what to say to the child.

But it couldn't be hidden.

"Tian Tian, ​​your dad is injured and is being treated at the hospital!"

"Is it serious? I want to go see him."

"Let's go tomorrow, we can't find anyone here now."

Ye Zhao couldn't bear to look at Li Tian and didn't know what to say. After Li Siwen came out, they helped each other out.

Aunt Zhang quickly followed.
