Chapter 798: Chapter 801: Anonymous
Quickly, Acheng found Li Fugui and brought him over, "Sister, brother-in-law, what’s the matter? Why the urgency to have me come here?"
Sitting there, Xiangxiang and Chu Lian both had very solemn expressions. This was a serious matter. Chu Lian handed over the item in his hand to Li Fugui and said, "Take a look."
Li Fugui took the item Chu Lian handed to him and pulled it out. Once he saw it, just like Chu Lian, he was shocked and his eyes widened in surprise. In addition to being shocked, he was excited. He looked at Chu Lian, "This..."
"Someone brought it to me today," Chu Lian said.
The item was none other than the house deeds of the Li Mansion and those of eight Dongfeng Restaurants, together with a letter.
The letter read: Li Fugui, the property of the Li Family has been delivered to you in full. The signature was Anonymous.
This situation baffled everyone. They estimated that the other party was targeting the Li Family, but they didn’t expect it to be someone helping Li Fugui. Who exactly was the other party, and why did they want to help Li Fugui win over the Li Family?
"Li Fugui, what do you plan to do about this?" Chu Lian asked.
"I can’t accept it," Li Fugui replied without hesitation.
He had no idea if the other party was friend or foe, and even if they were a friend, he couldn’t accept such a large property that someone else had given him.
Getting the Li Family’s property this time was an opportunity from heaven, which is why he had asked Chu Lian for help. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even want to ask Chu Lian.
Seeing how firm Li Fugui was, Chu Lian suggested, "Then let’s keep these things here for the time being. Don’t do anything with the Li Mansion and the Dongfeng Restaurant. We’ll wait until we find this Anonymous."
"Alright," Li Fugui nodded.
"Li Fugui, do you have any clue who this Anonymous might be? Who do you think might help you?" Xiangxiang asked.
Li Fugui shook his head. He couldn’t figure out who else would help him. If there had been someone, he wouldn’t have fallen into such a state in the first place.
"Li Fugui, could it be possible that you have some incredibly significant relative?"
Li Fugui shook his head, "No."
His family had been sparsely populated. They had always passed on from one generation to a single descendent until his father’s generation, which produced him and Li Fuyou. He was very certain that it was not possible for a relative to be involved.
"We can only leave the matter at this for now. We’ll look for this Anonymous first. Li Fugui, I need to talk to you about Li Fuyou. Because of the fire at Zhayuelai Restaurant these past few days, I also checked up on Li Fuyou’s situation."
"Okay, tell me, was the fire set by him?"
"We can’t determine that yet, but Li Fuyou left Shanshi County that very night."
"He left?" Li Fugui was somewhat surprised.
Chu Lian nodded, "Yes, he left. After Dongfeng Restaurant was sealed, he went to the County Magistrate, but for some reason, after coming out from there, he hurriedly sold off all the restaurants. He probably wanted to take the money and leave Shanshi County. And that Li Mansion was secretly sold by his mother."
"She sold it?" Over the past few days, there actually had been much talk regarding Li Fuyou’s mother, saying that she took a lot of the Li Family’s money for other men, only to be abandoned by them, and so on.
Now it seemed, after all the struggles Li Fuyou went through, that he ended up being treated that way by his own mother could truly be seen as karma.
"Yes."
Upon learning this news, Li Fugui decided to keep the Li Family’s property as is for the time being, resolving to find Anonymous first. He also decided to set out for Lin County the next day.
