Chapter 91 How are you going to keep that promise?
Earlier Li Youbin was a little surprised when Xiaolu called and informed him about this family dinner. He was a little skeptical when he agreed for it.
For some reason, he felt something was amiss about Li Xiaolu's behavior. He could see the difference between the past and the current Li Xiaolu. It was like she has changed completely. She was no longer the puppet he raised.
Her behavior was just out of his thinking. He was the one who brought her up, he had moulded her behavior in such a way that she was doing everything he needed her too. Everything was going great till the last month.
For some reason, she suddenly changed. She went against his words and did all the things he restricted her to. And now he feels like he can no longer control her.
He knew that nothing would happen without a reason and when he saw the changes in Li Xiaolu's behavior, he was worried and a little cautious.
For many days, he thought of the various reason's that could create such a drastic change in her. He panicked when he thought about, what if she got to know the truth?
He secretly investigated her but he got nothing in return. Later, when Li Xiaolu questioned Chen Yufan about his relationship with Li Roulan he realised that this was the problem. This was the reason for the change in Li Xiaolu's behavior.
He knew Chen Yufan was the one person, for whom Li Xiaolu would do anything and would listen to his every words. And that's why he had instructed Roulan many times to stay alert.
He had told her many times to maintain secrecy but she just wouldn't listen to him. He could see the relationship between Roulan and Xiaolu worsen and that was not good for his plans.
Today also he argued with her over this dinner. When Xiaolu said that she wanted to reconcile with Roulan, he was happy. He talked with Roulan over it and got into an argument with her.
His precious daughter was getting spoiled day by day and acted like a brat. He told her that if was a great opportunity to recrete the bond between her and Li Xiaolu but she had some stupid charity event to attend.
He ordered her to cancel it but she didn't listen to his words and left angrily. Sometimes, he felt it was his fault for spoiling Li Roulan so much but then she was his only child. If he didn't pamper and spoil her then who would?
"If only Roulan was here.... " Li Yifeng commented breaking Li Youbin from his thoughts.
"Don't worry son, that charity event was very important for sister. If she could she would have canceled it... " Yu Rushi smiled.
"Yes Yifeng, what your mother is saying is right. What Roulan is doing is for a good cause, we can have another family dinner next time... " Li Youbin said playing along with his wife.
"Yes Father, but it's been a long time since we had a family dinner with everybody present. If only Roulan could come...." Li Xiaolu sighed in disappointment but then she smiled, "But I understand, Roulan went for a charity work and we should all be supportive for her"
"So Xiaolu how is your shooting going?" Li Youbin asked diverting their minds from talking about Li Roulan's absence.
"It's going good... " she smiled shortly. Soon their food were brought it and served. Li Yifeng excitedly looked at his food.
"Xiaolu how are things going on between you and Chen Yufan? He told me you are still suspicious of him and hence you wanted to breakup with him?" Li Youbin asked carefully. He wanted to know what was going on inside Li Xiaolu's head.
"Yes I want go breakup with him, but he doesn't want too... "
"But dear why are you doing this? "Yu Rushi asked thinking about her daughterm If this girl doesn't want to be with Chen Yufan, then it would be great. My daughter would finally have a peace of mind!
"I don't love him anymore, Mother. He is a cheater and I don't want to be with him anymore...." Li Xiaolu replied grimly.
"How can you not love him anymore?" Li Youbin almost yelled but then he realised his words and immediately put on a calm expression, " I mean Xiaolu... you have been in a relationship with him for over one year. Just because of some doubts you just cannot break up with him. I know that child size he was a kid, he is the most honest and hardworking man you would find Xiaolu.... "
"I don't have any feelings for that cheater anymore, Father.... "
"Xiaolu in every relationship you will face problems, there will be fights, there will be doubts. But that doesn't mean that you can just abandon your relationship. You say Chen Yufan cheated on you but do you have any proof? Have you seen him with someone?"
"No Father..." she denied.
"So just on the basis of some doubts, don't do this to him. Give him a chance and talk with him. He is a good guy Xiaolu and you are very lucky that he loves you. So -"
Yu Rushi was very displeased by her husband's words. When this girl is saying that she doesn't want to be with Chen Yufan then why is he forcing her? Can't he see Roulan's plight?
"Youbin you can't force people to love each other. If Xiaolu dear, doesn't have any feeling for Yufan anymore... I think it's good if they breakup... " Yu Rushi said interupping Li Youbin.
Angered, Li Youbin glarred at his wife. What the hell is she doing? Can't she see how he is trying hard to stop Li Xiaolu from breaking up with Chen Yufan. He is an important key to make Li Xiaolu under his control again...
If Li Xiaolu breaks up with Chen Yufan then he won't have any strong leverage on her again. Grabbing his wife's hand under the table he held it tightly while having a smile on his face, "Dear, I know you are her mother and you worry about Xiaolu but it's just a misunderstanding between the kids. Once they solve it, everything will be good between them.... "
Then looking at Li Xiaolu he advised, "Xiaolu talk with Chen Yufan. And as your father I promise you that if Chen Yufan is cheating on you then I will be the one to talk to him...."
"Okay Father.... " Li Xiaolu smirked. Her eyes fell on the window and her lips curled up into a mocking smile. Let's see my so called father, how are you going to keep that promise?
