Chapter 7: The Fate of the Rice Bug

loud, yet the moment any sound came out of her mouth, a big hand firmly covered her lips, turning all sounds into inarticulate moans.The pain made her struggle fiercely, but at this point, everything...Chapter 7: The Fate of the Parasite

Liyi assumed that Yan Luoxi would, as before, compromise and not dare to resist upon hearing his words. He didn't know that at this moment, Yan Luoxi had been pushed by Li An to a point where she felt utterly hopeless and disheartened.

Upon hearing of his brother's outrageous act, his face burned with embarrassment. All he could do was feign disbelief as he asked, "Did Li An really do this"

Yan Luoxi, touched on her most sensitive spot, couldn't help but well up tears again: "Yes, he... He forced me to do it in such a way. Senior Brother Liyi, I can't possibly be with him anymore... Every time I see him, I am scared..."

Liyi was furious: "This Li An is truly beyond the pale! As his girlfriend, isn't there anything you could have talked about for intimacy How could he do something like this..."

Yan Luoxi had red-rimmed eyes and looked at him with wide eyes: "I am not... I am not his girlfriend."

Liyi inwardly cursed; even in her current confused state, she didn't waver from wanting to avoid marrying Li An. Moreover, things had reached a point where he felt there was nothing more to say.

He wasn't usually talkative, but the words he spoke today were more than what he usually said in an entire week. Even during negotiations worth hundreds of billions, he hadn't exerted himself like this!

Liyip usually talks about what is possible or not, but today he keeps pleading with others to ask if something is possible. If it weren't for his beloved younger brother, he wouldn’t be enduring this humiliation here

The little girl has already spoken up about such an embarrassing matter; he can no longer brazenly scheme against her. Liyip estimates that they don’t have much time left, so he decides to speak frankly with Yan Luoxi.

"Luoxi, I know you’ve suffered a lot at Li An’s place. He is just being capricious and isn’t the kind of person you think he is. He’s my brother, and I know his character well. Perhaps... let's not talk about him...

Luoxi, don’t say that I’m vulgar or selfish. But we are all people in this world and can’t avoid being practical. Since the situation has already occurred, one must be realistic when living life. The ultimate way to solve problems is to seek the greatest benefit!"

Yan Luoxi clearly knows that Liyip’s statement leaves room for more, but what he said makes sense, so she couldn’t help nodding.

"In terms of how Li An handled your situation, his methods may be too extreme and his actions overly brutal. But when considering him from appearance to assets, overall strength, he remains a golden share...

Li An leaned against the door frame, finding it both funny and sad as his elder brother described him this way. Has Liyip become obsessed with business, equating everything to stocks

Yan Luoxi gradually realized that since talking to her, Liyip has been diverting topics all along, fundamentally refusing to listen to her opinions or engage in any meaningful dialogue.

She now understands that Liyip’s visit today isn’t about rescuing her from hardship; he is trying his best to persuade her to marry Li An. Her white teeth left a circle of marks as she bit down on her lips.

"Luoxi, Li An can be considered to have both wealth and looks. He may not be the best among all men, but he's certainly one in a thousand."

Luoxi, what do women seek when they marry Firstly, it’s stability! Only with a stable home can one find joy in their work. When choosing a spouse, material conditions are crucial; secondly, the husband’s appearance is also important. With Li An's looks, you won't feel embarrassed anywhere...

What does Brother Li Yi want me to do Be Li An's wife or be a parasite, someone who exists solely through physical transactions and trades freedom for peace. Yan Luoxi tightly gripped the chair’s armrest; her hands were so clenched that her veins bulged.

This perfect arrangement leaves me uncertain whether I should thank Brother Li Yi or resent him...

"...Luoxi, think carefully. If you marry Li An, besides wealth, there might be many unexpected things waiting for you. Things that some people struggle their entire lives to achieve—or even several lifetimes—without success..."

A soft yet commanding female voice suddenly interrupted from the living room entrance.

Recognizable and furious voices echoed at the door, causing even seasoned Li Yi to be momentarily stunned. Hiding inside his room, Li An's complexion turned pale, his body involuntarily leaning against the nearby door frame for support.

Panicked, Yan Luoxi turned around to see a beautiful young woman standing under the golden sunlight, dressed in simple casual clothes with her hair neatly tied up. The light framed her face like delicate embroidery, accentuating her ethereal and otherworldly appearance. However, an unsettling aura of anger still radiated from her.

"Xiao Bei... Aunt Xiao Bei..." Yan Luoxi murmured in disbelief, staring fixedly at the person walking in from the door. She felt a sense of unreality, with her face filled with sorrow and incomprehension.

At the beginning when she secretly left the Li family, Yan Luoxi had dreamed about Gu Xiaobei countless times. She had thought that she might be found by the Li family, or that she might see Gu Xiaobei again, but after living alone for many years without seeing anyone from the Li family, she gave up on the hope of meeting Gu Xiaobei.

Gu Xiaobei hadn't changed much in appearance over the years; she still looked like a young girl, with sparkling eyes and radiant beauty. She seemed ageless, divine yet youthful and captivating. Stepping out of the shadows, she walked steadily towards the room, her black, bright eyes clearly visible, as if water was flowing through them.

She extended her hand to Yan Luoxi, calling out warmly: "Luoxi!"

The sorrow on Yan Luoxi's face was instantly filled with joy. The look of disbelief immediately turned into one of wild excitement. She smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling as she rushed into Gu Xiaobei's embrace.

Over the years, Gu Xiaobei's position in Yan Luoxi’s heart had never changed; she would always be her benefactor and the person she admired most.

"Aunt Xiao Bei!" As Yan Luoxi threw herself into Gu Xiaobei's arms, she felt a surge of emotion that made tears well up uncontrollably. Aunt Xiao Bei, do you know how much I miss you How much I need you How many times have I dreamt about you

Yan Luoxi had so much to say to Gu Xiaobei, but in this chaotic moment, all she could do was let her tears flow.

Sensing Yan Luoxi's feelings, Gu Xiaobei held her tightly and said softly: "Foolish child, you missed Aunt Xiao Bei, didn't you I also miss you. Many times I wanted to visit you with your Uncle Li, but feared disturbing your peace."e were enduring great pain. Yan Luoxi could almost hear the grinding of his teeth. She couldn't comprehend why he was so upset just because she had warned him.After a while, Li An suddenly sneered and...
