Madam Li's Identity Is Exposed Again!

Chapter 1059: Chapter 1059: Old Master Li Surprisingly Isn’t Angry

Scarlett needed to see the doctor, and as the ’culprit,’ Chi Enen naturally had to accompany her.

The Li family already had a personal doctor on hand, and since the injury was just a small scrape on the knee, the doctor quickly finished the medical checkup and treated the wound.

The doctor then said to Old Master Li, ”Her Royal Highness has only scraped her knee. There’s no injury to the muscles or bones. However, there is some blood stasis around the knee area, so she needs to rest for two days and minimize walking.”

Old Master Li glanced at Chi Enen but didn’t seem angry or inclined to lash out, and he calmly instructed the doctor to prescribe medication.

He then turned to Scarlett, who was sitting on the sofa, and said apologetically, ”Your Highness, you won’t be able to move around much for the next two days. If you don’t mind, please stay here. Once the wound on your knee improves, you can return.”

These words perfectly aligned with Scarlett’s intentions. After exchanging a few polite remarks, she agreed to stay.

Old Master Li arranged for the Old Butler to lead her to the guest room. After she departed, he expressionlessly turned around, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and with sharp eyes directed his gaze at Chi Enen. ”I asked you to accompany Her Royal Highness for a stroll, and this is how you take someone for a stroll?”

”You deliberately tripped her, didn’t you?”

”... Yes.” Chi Enen didn’t explain that the reason she tripped Scarlett was because Scarlett had crossed a line first and she couldn’t hold back anymore.

She initially thought Old Master Li would explode with rage. Unexpectedly, after her admission, he didn’t react much—as if he wasn’t surprised at all. ”There better not be a next time. Leave!”

He didn’t get mad, didn’t issue warnings, didn’t unleash fury—this was entirely outside Chi Enen’s expectations. She thought he would use this incident as an excuse to expel her, but instead, he let it go so easily. This was completely unlike the Old Master’s usual style.

Chi Enen’s bright eyes clouded with guilt, and she felt a trace of regret for acting so impulsively earlier. She whispered softly, ”I’m sorry, Grandfather. There won’t be a next time.”

Then, she left quietly on tiptoe.

As Old Master Li watched her retreating figure, his gaze grew complex. The hand gripping his dragon head crutch tightened slightly.

He wasn’t some naive twenty-year-old. He clearly understood what had happened with Scarlett’s fall and injury today.

Given Chi Enen’s personality, she would never make the first move. It must have been Scarlett who did something excessive, which provoked Chi Enen to retaliate in turn.

His lack of anger wasn’t only because he discerned the truth of the situation. There was also a crucial reason—if Chi Enen had been so weak as to let herself be bullied to the point of utter passivity and hadn’t known how to fight back, she wouldn’t deserve to be the mother of his grandson and granddaughter! He wouldn’t be at ease letting his grandson continue to stay by her side!

Thankfully, Chi Enen hadn’t let him down.

At the very least, she hadn’t played the victim!

However, what surprised him was Chi Enen’s final apology.

He could tell that she was sincerely apologetic.

And the reason for her apology must have been because she felt that her actions had put him in a difficult position.

Old Master Li narrowed his eyes and suppressed the complexity in his gaze.

...

Elsewhere, Chi Enen walked toward Li Beijue’s room, full of regret.

Before she stepped out of the staircase landing, her wrist was suddenly grabbed. A familiar, domineering voice sounded right next to her ear, ”Chi Enen, where did you run off to? I’ve been looking for you everywhere! Didn’t I tell you, after I return, wherever you want to go, I’ll go with you?”

It was Li Beijue!

She looked up, and sure enough, the sight that greeted her was an impeccably handsome but arrogant face, radiating fiery anger!
