A domineering CEO falls in love with me, an unmarried mother of seven!

Chapter 266 Grandpa, Welcome Home

Upon seeing this, Tan Xiangchen immediately stood up, pushed Li Yumei out of the room, and said coldly, "Enough! You are not qualified to mention these things!"

He closed the door, quickly walked back to the bedside, gently covered Li Yuzhu's ears, and softly comforted her, "Don't listen to her, Yuzhu. Your parents love you very much, they're just... just too concerned about saving face."

Li Yuzhu's tears finally fell. She leaned against Tan Xiangchen's chest, her voice so low it was almost inaudible: "Xiangchen, I've spent my whole life proving my love for you, but... why haven't you come to find me?"

Tan Xiangchen felt a sharp pain in his heart. He hugged her tightly, his voice filled with regret: "I was so foolish. I could only miss you, but I didn't have the courage to come to you. I'm sorry to you, and I'm sorry to Zhengchu and the children."

Li Yuzhu silently shed tears, leaning against Tan Xiangchen's chest, as if she had found her only support.

For her, Tan Xiangchen was her whole world.

No matter how much pain and regret she had in the past, as long as he was by her side, she had the courage to keep moving forward.

……

Hearing a series of urgent knocks on the door, Tan Zhengchu frowned slightly and stepped out of the room.

He pushed open the door and saw a tall woman, similar in stature to his mother, standing outside. She was pounding on the door with an agitated expression, her voice loud and urgent: "Tan Xiangchen, you come out here!"

Tan Zhengchu frowned, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable authority: "Li Yumei, don't make a scene here."

Li Yumei stared directly at Tan Zhengchu, her voice laced with provocation: "What's it to you? I'm here to see your father, Tan Xiangchen!"

Tan Zhengchu shook his head, his tone still calm: "My dad and mom are together, don't disturb them."

Li Yumei, however, remained unyielding and continued pounding on the door, shouting, "I don't care! I want to see him!"

Looking at the woman in front of him, who was so different from his mother, Tan Zhengchu couldn't help but feel a complex mix of emotions.

His mother had always been an elegant and beautiful figure in his mind, while Li Yumei in front of him, although she looked the same, had a bit of a shrewish and domineering air about her.

Just then, a noise came from another room.

The third brother and Lin Quan were woken up and came out rubbing their sleepy eyes.

The two were stunned when they saw Li Yumei kicking the door.

The third brother whispered to Lin Quan, "Who is this? Why are they making such a fuss so late?"

Lin Quan also looked surprised: "How come I've never heard you mention such a person?"

The two men exchanged a glance, both thinking to themselves how this woman looked so much like Tan Zhengchu's mother. They had a deep impression of her, believing her to be exceptionally beautiful and elegant, completely unlike the image of Li Yumei before them.

Seeing this, Tan Zhengchu explained softly, "This woman just looks like my mother."

The third brother and Lin Quan exchanged a glance and simultaneously guessed, "Could she be your mother's twin?"

Tan Zhengchu nodded: "That's right, she is my mother's younger sister, Li Yumei."

The third brother and Lin Quan suddenly realized, thinking to themselves: No wonder they look so alike.

Seeing that Li Yumei was still not giving up, Tan Zhengchu ordered his men to send her away so as not to disturb his parents' peace and quiet any further.

The men responded and came out. Li Yumei saw this and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes, but she was still carried out by several men.

Just then, Su Yingxue was also awakened by the noise and came out of the room. She saw Li Yumei fighting with Lao San and the others, and couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

Su Yingxue couldn't help but exclaim, "This woman's skills are truly astounding!"

She wondered curiously about Li Yumei's background, and couldn't help but think: If Tan Zhengchu's mother, Li Yuzhu, were as outstanding as her, how wonderful that would be.

Seeing this, Tan Zhengchu frowned slightly, pulled Su Yingxue into his arms, and said in a low voice, "Don't compare Li Yumei to my mother."

Su Yingxue was slightly taken aback, then nodded in understanding. Tan Zhengchu continued, "My mother has always been true to herself, while Li Yumei is just a two-faced person who only experiences unrequited love."

Despite Li Yumei's skill, she was ultimately no match for the combined strength of several men.

She was dragged towards the elevator, her eyes fixed fiercely on Tan Zhengchu and the others.

"Don't be so smug!" Li Yumei shouted defiantly, "Tan Xiangchen is mine! Your father is mine!"

The third brother walked up to Tan Zhengchu and Su Yingxue with a smile and said, "It seems that Tan Zhengchu's father was quite popular when he was young, otherwise the Li sisters would both be so fond of him." His words were slightly teasing, but his tone revealed his respect for Tan Zhengchu's father.

"Yes, Li Yumei is deeply in love with Tan Zhengchu's father," the third brother added, his eyes filled with curiosity. "I've never seen Tan Zhengchu's father. What does he look like? He must be very handsome, right?"

Upon hearing this, Tan Zhengchu smiled slightly, but with a hint of helplessness: "What you're saying is ridiculous. My father only loves my mother; nothing else matters." He put his arm around Su Yingxue's shoulder, and the two smiled at each other before turning and going back to their room.

The third brother watched their retreating figures with an innocent expression: "I was just saying it casually, don't take it to heart."

Lin Quan reminded him from the side, "Third brother, think before you speak, don't just blurt things out."

The calm after Li Yumei was sent away

After Li Yumei was sent away, the whole environment returned to calm.

At breakfast, Li Yuzhu and Tan Xiangchen walked into the restaurant hand in hand. Liu Bao and Da Bao saw this and gave the two of them approving looks.

There was no awkwardness between Li Yuzhu and Tan Xiangchen; their intimate moments in bed yesterday had quickly warmed their relationship.

After the two sat down, Tan Xiangchen pulled out a chair for Li Yuzhu, taking meticulous care of her.

Li Yuzhu's gaze remained fixed on Tan Xiangchen, as if to tell him, "This is the life I want." She whispered, "Xiangchen, thank you."

Tan Xiangchen smiled and replied, "Zhu'er, you are the most precious person in my life."

Li Yuzhu introduced everyone present to Tan Xiangchen, from Su Yingxue to Tan Zhengchu and Tan Zhengfan, and then to his two grandsons, Liubao and Dabao. He watched as his two sons grew up.

Upon hearing all this, Tan Xiangchen's eyes welled up with tears, and his heart was filled with guilt.

"Let's not dwell on the past. We'll never be separated again. We're family." Tan Zhengchu patted Tan Xiangchen on the shoulder.

Tan Zhengfan also chimed in, "Yes, from now on we're all family. Welcome home, Father."

Liu Bao and Da Bao shouted in unison, "Grandpa, we welcome you home!" Hearing these innocent voices, Tan Xiangchen felt a warmth in his heart.

The reactions of the crowd to the reunion of Li Yuzhu and Tan Xiangchen

Su Yingxue smiled broadly as she saw the two being affectionate.

She was genuinely happy for them, because this was the happy scene she had been hoping for.
