Mr. Li, my wife kneels down and begs to be kicked out.

Chapter 225: 1 move behind

"Sister-in-law, why are you here?"

Behind him, Li Nuanyang's words suddenly frightened Su Xiaoxiao, who was concentrating on something, and trembled.

When she turned around and saw Li Nuanyang, her heart suddenly jumped and she relaxed.

Turning to look at the courtyard beside her, she pointed without hesitation, "Senior, where is this place? It looks like it should be a relaxing place, why..."

Li Nuanyang was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that Su Xiaoxiao would come here after running.

Since what happened seven years ago, this place has been locked up. The place that was once full of laughter and laughter has now become deserted.

A hint of loneliness flashed through his eyes, and he looked away with some aversion, speaking in a flash, "It's just an abandoned yard, nothing."

The understatement aroused Su Xiaoxiao's curiosity even more.

After all, Qian Duoduo told her that many of the trees in this yard are rare species.

Since it is a rare species, how could it be ignored?

With the Li family's financial situation, even hiring a gardener to take care of it would be just a piece of cake.

Unless, they don't want to care about it!

Her intuition told her that this place must have some connection with Li Hanchuan's past.

She looked at Li Nuanyang seriously, "Senior, is this really just an abandoned courtyard?"

"Of course." Li Nuanyang's mouth twitched slightly, "Otherwise, what did you think it would be?"

Su Xiaoxiao looked into Li Nuanyang's eyes. Under those bright eyes, there was obviously some unnoticeable panic.

If this place is really as simple as he thought, then why should he be worried? The more panicked he became, the more it showed that he was not telling the truth.

"Is this courtyard related to Li Hanchuan's past?"

Su Xiaoxiao's unwarranted guess made the unprepared Li Nuanyang suddenly break out in a cold sweat.

Her words seemed to be unintentional, but they touched his soft heart.

"Grandpa is a person who loves and cherishes flowers. There are so many rare and rare plants here. It is impossible for grandpa not to take care of them. Even if he doesn't take care of them himself, he will never leave them alone. Unless there is something else in this place. There’s something hidden.”

Su Xiaoxiao's sonorous and powerful words were like sharp swords, shooting directly into Li Nuanyang's heart.

He just pretended to smile and said, "You are worrying too much. Grandpa is too old and he is unable to manage such a big courtyard. Moreover, there are no outsiders in Maple Forest Garden, so naturally he will not hire anyone to take care of it. Besides, Our Li family has so many manors, what exotic flowers and plants do we want?"

His answer was obviously perfunctory.

Su Xiaoxiao always felt that she was just one step away from knowing Li Hanchuan's past.

She was a little unwilling, "Senior, you told me last time that I would know everything when Director Li comes back. Since I will know sooner or later, why do you always keep silent and only let me do it alone?" What about speculation? You don’t believe me??”

Facing Su Xiaoxiao's reasonable question, Li Nuanyang didn't think of how to answer it for a moment.

The past has long been a topic that everyone avoids talking about.

But he knew that there must be someone who would tell this matter to his mouth, but how should he confess to Su Xiaoxiao the pain of their Li family?

He was full of apologies, "Susu, you are right. But I'm sorry, it's related to the reputation of our Li family, so I can't tell you yet."

"When will Director Li come back?" Su Xiaoxiao asked again.

Li Nuanyang was silent for a moment. He only heard his mother say that she had recently found out some information about "that person", but she did it secretly because she was afraid that Li Hanchuan would find out.

But he didn't hide it from Su Xiaoxiao, he just said truthfully: "When she finds the person she wants to find, she will come back naturally."

"The person that Director Li is looking for is... your father?"

"How do you know..." Li Nuanyang looked at Su Xiaoxiao in disbelief, but without mentioning those two words, he asked in a deep voice: "What did you hear?"

Su Xiaoxiao did not hide anything, "When I checked Li Hanchuan's personal information, his family members were the only one missing the role of father. At that time, I started to feel a little strange."

"Later, I came to Maple Grove Villa, but I had never seen your father, not even a family photo, and I felt even more problematic."

"Senior, actually what I just asked you was just a guess. Since I have already guessed so much, can't you tell me what happened in the past?"

"Perhaps... I can help you if you can't help me?"

Su Xiaoxiao's last words deeply touched Li Nuanyang's heart.

Their family had worked so hard just to untie the knot that had been tied to Li Hanchuan for seven years.

But to untie this knot, Li Hanchuan's scars must be uncovered and he must face his own pain. But how easy is this?

These four words, starting over, are simple to say. But for those who are bruised and bruised, how can they say that they can let go of their heart-wrenching past?

He raised his eyes to look at the woman with firm eyes in front of him. He originally thought that she was the one who could help.

But for some reason, as the time came closer to tearing open these scars, he became less brave.

"I remember that you also said that Li Hanchuan once had a fiancée. Did she and your father..."

"no!"

Before Su Xiao could finish telling her what she was thinking, Li Nuanyang directly denied her speculation.

But, can he hide it?

As Su Xiaoxiao said, she would know sooner or later.

After slowing down, he said: "I once told you that there is always a thorn in my brother's heart that cannot be removed, causing his head to bleed. But what is this thorn? You don't know."

Thinking of the thorn in Li Hanchuan's heart, his whole body instantly became depressed.

He gave a fake smile, "My brother always likes to lick his wounds silently, and he never tells us the pain and sadness in his heart. In fact, all of us know that he just doesn't want us to worry."

"I once heard Secretary Hua say that after that incident, he couldn't sleep every night. Later, he still relied on sleeping pills to get some sleep. Even now, he has never had a peaceful sleep."

"So, what is that thing...?"

Su Xiaoxiao was even more eager to know what it was that could completely change a person.
