"Big brother, aren't you going to persuade me?"
"Persuade you about what?" Li Yuanhua forced a bitter smile. "Persuade you to sacrifice your whole life for money?"
But that's exactly what Li Xiangping tried to persuade her to do.
As soon as this thought popped up, Li Qiyu couldn't help but smile helplessly. How could she compare Li Yuanhua with Li Xiangping? It was disrespectful to Li Yuanhua.
Li Qiyu took out the household register she got from Jiang Yongfeng.
"Big brother, we're free."
Li Yuanhua looked at the household register. This tough - as - nails man couldn't even hold back his tears.
"How did you get this?"
When he left the Li family back then, he had asked Li Xiangping for it, but Li Xiangping remained unmoved. Although he had actually broken away from the Li family, he was still a member of the Li family in the eyes of the law.
"Big brother, don't ask about this. But we really need to act quickly."
Li Yuanhua nodded. At this time, Ming Yuezhu, who had managed to calm Li Tong down, came back. Seeing the brother and sister looking at each other with tear - filled eyes, she joked, "Come on, after such a long separation, are you going to cry in each other's arms?"
Ming Yuezhu wasn't stupid. When she caught a glimpse of the household register on the coffee table, she understood everything. Now she was just trying to lighten the mood and bring the siblings back to their senses.
After putting Li Tong to sleep, the three of them sat down to chat, talking about everything under the sun. But no one mentioned the household register, name - changing, or Li Xiangping.
Without any worries, laughing and watching Li Tong make a fuss, Li Qiyu hadn't been this happy for a long time.
It was the kind of happiness that came from throwing off the shackles.
Not only because of this Li family, but also because of the Li family in her memory.
It was time to let it all go.
Li Xiangping woke up soon. After all, he wasn't really seriously ill. His "fainting" before was mostly just a way to keep Li Qiyu by his side.
Jiang Yongfeng was quite attentive, taking care of him in the hospital ward. On the one hand, it was out of the affection of so many years; on the other hand, she wanted to use her performance to gain some points for Li Xichi in Li Xiangping's eyes, hoping that Li Xiangping would give up his obsession with pairing Song Yian with Li Xiyu and accept the possibility that Li Xiyu might become Song Yian's wife.
Sometimes, when Jiang Yongfeng talked so much that Li Xiangping got annoyed, he would rudely wake her up.
"I beg you, wake up. Let's not even talk about Xichi's status. Even Xiyu is actually not good enough for the heir of the Song family. If he doesn't even want Xiyu, do you think he'll take a fancy to your daughter?"
Jiang Yongfeng was, of course, unwilling. In her eyes, her daughter was the most outstanding in the world.
"But he used to take a fancy to her."
"What did you say?"
Jiang Yongfeng came to her senses and said, "It's nothing. I was just mumbling to myself."
Just then, the manager who had been representing Li Xiangping's company came to see him in a hurry.
"Sir, the Qiu family has sent us a notice that they're withdrawing their shares."
"Withdrawing their shares? So suddenly." The Qiu family was the largest shareholder of Li's Department Store. If they withdrew their shares according to the market value, Li's would either go bankrupt or be severely damaged. "Why are the Qiu family withdrawing their shares all of a sudden?"
"It seems to be an order from the heir of the Qiu family."
"Bullshit heir."
Wasn't the heir of the Qiu family just his own son and daughter?
After scolding, Li Xiangping realized the seriousness of the situation. It was obvious, wasn't it? The Qiu family wanted to withdraw their capital soon after Li Qiyu came back. Who else could be behind this?
Li Xiangping took out his phone and was about to call Li Qiyu when there was a knock on the door.
Two policemen, accompanied by a nurse, came to the door of the ward.
The sudden appearance of the policemen left everyone stunned. This was a hospital. What were the policemen doing here?
The next words made everyone think it was even more absurd. "Mr. Li, you've been sued for intentional injury. We need you to come back to the police station with us for an investigation."
Hearing such an absurd accusation, Jiang Yongfeng couldn't believe it. "What are you talking about? My Xiangping is lying in the hospital ward. How could he have committed intentional injury? And coming to the hospital to harass an old man like this, is this the quality of you law - enforcement officers?"
The policemen had, of course, expected that Li Xiangping would use his illness as an excuse. They smiled and said, "Madam, we've already consulted Mr. Li Xiangping's attending doctor. His current physical condition allows him to cooperate with our investigation. Please cooperate with our work, Mr. Li. You're a public figure. I'm sure you don't want things to get ugly."
Li Xiangping frowned. He knew he was in big trouble this time. He asked, "Can I know who reported me?"
"Miss Qiu."
Another person with the surname Qiu!
Li Xiyu!
At this time, Li Qiyu, who had now become Qiu Xiyu, returned to Li's Film Industry. Since she had broken away from the Li family, Li's Film Industry also needed to change its name. This was no small matter. A group of senior executives were sitting in the office arguing for a long time about what name to choose. They were almost on the verge of fighting.
Some of the bolder ones even asked Li Qiyu, "Boss lady, you're not going to change your name again, are you?"
Li Qiyu thought seriously for a while. It was really hard to say. She changed her name this time, on the one hand, to completely cut ties with the Li family, and on the other hand, to fulfill Li Xiyu's wish.
Who knew? Maybe she would get tired of this name in the future and want to change back to her original name.
"Then we shouldn't name it after a surname."
So, everyone started to come up with more suggestions in a flurry.
Someone mentioned, "Chunyu."
This was their company's top - level project this year. And since Song Yian had taken over the Song family's enterprise, this movie, which was promoted by Song Yian, had become popular even before it was released. Its popularity had already exceeded many of the movies that Li's Film Industry had made before.
Li Qiyu was also tempted.
This name was given to her by Zhou Donglin. It was also a symbol of their relationship.
It was as if it was destined to come to her.
But "Chunyu" sounded a bit awkward. In the end, Li Qiyu made the decision. "Chunyu" (Spring Rain).
Li's Film Industry was officially renamed Chunyu Film Industry. The rest of the matters would be left to the legal department and the publicity department. The first thing Li Qiyu did after the meeting was to call Song Yian. Before she could even say what the new name was, Song Yian suggested, "How about Chunyu?"
Li Qiyu was extremely shocked.
"Did Li Juan report to you again?"
Only then did Song Yian realize that his casual suggestion was actually the name that Li Qiyu had decided on. Since he had regained the memories of Zhou Donglin, it seemed that there was no longer any gap between him and Li Qiyu. They had perfect chemistry.
"No. I just thought that the name Chunyu has a good meaning."
It wasn't just the literal meaning of the name, but also the special significance it held for the two of them.
Li Qiyu nodded. Yes.
When the spring rain falls, Donglin thrives, and it's also the bloom time of the虞美人.
Everything was unbelievably beautiful.
