Chapter 577: Chapter 577: A Method to Notify the Lai Family People of Her Return
Lai Family, Tang Li was stopped at the door.
Because of Old Madam Lai’s instructions, Tang Li had become the top person on the visitor blacklist, and the servants did not open the door for her as before.
Tang Li took out her cellphone and called Lai Wenyan directly.
The call went through, Tang Li didn’t exchange pleasantries but got straight to the point, saying that she was passing by the Lai Family on her way to Lishan and wanted to go home to pick up some things, but the servants wouldn’t let her in.
Then, she handed the cellphone to the servant.
Even though Lai Wenyan’s attitude towards Tang Li was not exactly warm, he still allowed her into the Lai Family home.
As Tang Li stepped into the villa, Old Madam Lai, who was watching TV in the living room, saw her and immediately turned her face away: "Who let you in?!"
Saying so, she called out the servant’s name, trying to drive Tang Li out.
Tang Li ignored her and went straight to the staircase.
Hearing Old Madam Lai’s shout, the servant hurriedly came over, with a somewhat troubled expression, whispering: "It was the Councilman who let Miss in."
Old Madam Lai looked towards Tang Li on the stairs: "Get out! In this house, there is no place for you!"
Tang Li turned around, facing Old Madam Lai’s unfriendly gaze with a slight smile: "The master of this house seems to be my father, you should just focus on your retirement and it’d be wise not to meddle in matters that don’t concern you."
Old Madam Lai was furious to the point of fuming: "What are you? How dare you talk to me like this, are you all dead? Drive her out now!"
A few servants stood by the side, none dared to make a move.
After all, the Councilman had indeed instructed them on the phone not to make things difficult for Tang Li.
Old Madam Lai, realizing she could not command her servants, felt a surge of pain in her chest, and her nanny quickly helped her sit down on the sofa.
Looking up again, Tang Li had already gone upstairs.
"Call Xiaxia immediately!" Old Madam Lai instructed the nanny.
Tang Li’s visit to the Lai Family was to bring her things over since she planned to return to the Lai Family, it was also appropriate to notify the Lai Family People in advance.
By the time Lai Sheng Xia received Old Madam Lai’s call and hurried back, Tang Li had already left, only Old Madam Lai was sitting in the living room, fuming.
"She even dares to come to our house!" Old Madam Lai mentioned Tang Li, as disgusted as if she had swallowed a fly: "Your father is also confused, with such a calamity gone, he actually still let her in!"
Lai Sheng Xia put down her bag and sat next to Old Madam Lai: "Regardless, Ah Li is still dad’s child, it’s not unprecedented for dad to dote on her."
This remark successfully ignited Old Madam Lai’s fury.
"He dotes on such a calamity, but who will pity my daughter-in-law and the other two granddaughters!"
"Calm down first."
Lai Sheng Xia gently patted Old Madam Lai’s back.
Old Madam Lai still cursed under her breath: "That shameless mother of hers, forcing your father to be with her, secretly gave birth to this little bastard. If it weren’t for her dying from that filthy disease, who knows what else she would have schemed!"
Because of Tang Li’s return home, Old Madam Lai had no appetite for lunch.
In the afternoon, Old Madam Lai went upstairs for a nap.
After the nanny left, not long after Old Madam Lai lay down, the back of her head felt chillingly cold, reaching out to touch it, her hand was covered in crimson blood. Turning her head to look, the white pillowcase was stained with spots of blood, which frightened her into screaming.
Old Madam Lai touched her graying hair, her palm full of coagulated blood plasma. Ignoring her walking cane, shouting as she got out of bed barefooted, not knowing that under the lifted bedsheet, there were two dried small snakes, almost as thick as fingers, made Old Madam Lai’s eyes roll back, nearly fainting.
Lai Sheng Xia and the servants heard the panicked shrieks and rushed in, removing the blood-soaked pillow from the bed, in addition to a bag of blood plasma, there was also a black and white photo.
—It was Old Madam Lai’s obituary photo.
