Granting You a Second Life 75 Bottomless Pi

Li Na and her parents were pulling up outside the Li Mansion doors.

After the incidence at the hospital Li Na ran home in flood of tears. She cried out all her grievances to her parents. Her parents did their best to console Li Na.

When Li Na eventually calmed down. Li Na's parents couldn't contain their anger they decided to pay a visit to Li Wang. So he could resolve the situation.

Li Na and her parents walked up the steps to the front door. The maid was already stood at the door holding it open.

Li Na and her parents rushed through into the living room.

Li Mei Wu and Li Yu Na who were calmly drinking tea immediately looked up to see their irate family members.

Li Mei Wu: "What's going on? Na why are your eyes so red and puffy?"

Li Na broke down in tears once more as she told Li Mei Wu and Li Yu Yan about the ruthless injustice she had suffered at the hands of Li Xiuying.

Li Na: "I politely suggested to her that she should fulfill her filial duty to uncle and auntie. You were both so kind to her and have raised her all these years. But she disregarded everything I said. She said that uncle and auntie didn't do anything for her and were just trying to steal her inheritance."

Li Mei Wu voice was a mix of shock and indignation: "She said what?!"

Li Yu Yan held her mother's hand gently and spoke in a sickly sweet voice: "Mommy don't be angry it will only cause your health to suffer. I'm sure Little sister didn't mean what she said. She's probably just going through a rebellious phase. How could she possibly forget everything that you and daddy did for her? You took her in when no one else would, you ensured she had a steady inflow of work and helped her make contacts. You had even arranged a marriage for her."

On the surface Li Yu Yan's words seemed to be defending Li Xiuying but in actuality she was showing the extent of Li Xiuying's wrongdoings.

Li Mei Wu: "That rebellious ungrateful wretch! After everything we've done for her! If it wasn't for us she would have been living on the streets. So what if she has medical skills without our backing no one would have hired her."

Li Yu Yan spoke with sadness: "It's so sad that little sister can't see everything that mommy and daddy have done and the sacrifices you both made."

Li Wang walked through the doors of the living room at this moment.

Li Wang took in the scene before him. His wife was angered to the point the veins in her forehead were throbbing. His daughter's eyes shone with unshed tears and his niece had a red and puffy tear stained faced that looked like she had suffered severe injustice.

Li Wang addressed his sister and brother-in-law: "What's going on here?"

Sister: "Ge you have to get justice for my little Na. That stupid slut made a complete fool out of her."

Li Wang sat down next to his wife: "Who are you talking about?"

Brother-in-law Pan: "Who else could it be except that ungrateful Li Xiuying?!"

Li Wang scowled at the mention of Li Xiuying's name: "What's happened? Tell me everything from the beginning."

Li Na began to recount her tale of woe to her uncle. Her story became even more exaggerated each time she told it.

Li Wang felt like he was punched in the gut. He clenched his fist and slammed it down on the arm rest of the sofa. "How dare that little B**** remove us from the account!!!"

Sister: "Sister-in-law is right! She's completely forgotten her family."

Li Mei Wu also chimed in with righteous words: "That's why they say carnal cravings are never satisfied and are the main obstruction on the path to enlightenment. As soon as Li Xiuying got the scent of money she became a bottomless pit of insatiable greed completely forgetting her filial duty."

Li Na sobbed and hiccuped: "And then uncle... she had two large security guards grab me and drag me out even though I was already leaving on my own. I was completely humiliated. How could she tell those men to handle me so violently?" She then cried even louder.

Sister: "My poor baby girl has been completely humiliated! Has that Li Xiuying completely forgotten what family means?"

Li Wang scowled: "Quiet."

Li Na's sob immediately got caught in her throat.

Li Wang suddenly became anxious. He took out his phone and immediately called Chen Ma. After ringing countless times there was no answer.

He then called Han Liu.

Everyone in the living room watched Li Wang without making a sound.

Li Wang felt that something was wrong when he heard the automated voice. Usually platinum card members would go straight through to their selected adviser and bypass the automated menu. He repeatedly tried to enter the 8 digit security code but it was rejected.

Automated voice: "To speak to one of our advisers please hold."

Adviser:"Hello. How may I help you today?"

Li Wang spoke forcefully: "This is Li Wang. I want to speak to Han Liu."

Adviser: "Mr. Li. Could you please hold for a moment whilst I transfer you?"

Li Wang grunted his agreement.

2 minutes later.

A female voice: "Hello Mr. Li Wang this is..."

Li Wang: "I don't care who you are! I demand to speak to Han Liu now!"

The woman chuckled in a lady-like way.

Li Wang became furious: "How dare you laugh?! Who even are you? I demand to speak to your boss right now?! How dare you think you can treat a customer in such a way?! Do you know how much I'm worth to Nephrite credit agency?!"

The woman's voice remained upbeat and whimsical: "Mr. Li Wang I recommend that you listen to what I have to say without interrupting me."

Li Wang had an ominous feeling.

Female voice: "Now where was I. Oh yes I was about to introduce myself. I am Sima Hwei-ru the current acting CEO of Nephrite credit agency." She paused for effect.

Li Wang: "Miss CEO Sima I I I It's a pleasure to talk to you. Please forgive my words earlier I was unable to control my emotions. Unfortunately there's been a situation with my family that's caused some distress and resulted in my earlier improper behavior. I have heard that Miss Sima is very kind-hearted and magnanimous." Li Wang's voice changed from shock, to servile to charismatic so rapidly it could give someone whiplash.

Sima Hwei-ru had to applaud Li Wang's ability to adapt: "I asked our advisers to transfer all calls related to the previous employee Han Liu."

Li Wang grimaced at hearing Han Li was fired.

Sima Hwei-ru: "Mr. Li it has recently come to my attention that some members of my staff were engaged in illegal activity such as oh I don' know... adding additional card holders to an account without the primary account holders permission. Things of that nature. "

Li Wang was sweating in his seat. He took out his handkerchief from his pocket and dabbed at his forehead and the back of his neck.

Sima Hwei-ru: "Everyone who was engaged in any form of criminal activity has been fired and the majority have been arrested for fraud."

Li Wang cleared his throat: "I'm glad you have caught the miscreants. It is better not to have such people at your agency."

Sima Hwei-ru: "Indeed. But I don't think it's enough. After all, the employees weren't the only ones taking advantage of MY credit agency."

Li Wang: "If the employee's are removed then there should be no way of exploiting the system."

Sima Hwei-ru: "Well Mr. Li. My lawyers and the police have expressed interest in finding the culprits who bribed my former employees and thus had a part in the illegal activity."

Li Wang swallowed.

Sima Hwei-ru laughed gently: "I'm all for equality and being fair. I'm also a stronger believer in sharing. Hence, I felt it fair that the punishment and blame should be distributed equally among all parties involved."

Li Wang: "CEO Sima I ..."

Sima Hwei-ru: "But that's all I know for now. My lawyers and the police have yet to update me."

Li Wang: "Thank you for taking the time to notify me."

Sima Hwei-ru: "Where have my manners gone? Mr. Li you wanted to discuss something today, perhaps I can be of assistance to you?"

Li Wang politely refused: "No no, there's no need. It was only an insignificant inquiry. How could I ask Miss. Sima to do something so menial?"

Sima Hwei-ru: "Mr. Li what are you saying? All my customers are important. I would be happy to answer any questions you may have." Her voice may sound light and breezy but it exerted an unknown pressure on Li Wang.

Li Wang: "Well, well my niece just wanted me to inquire about her account on her behalf of course. But I'll tell her to call later this week."

SimHwei-ru: "Oh Dr. Li? Did she receive her customized card yet?"

Li Wang: "No. She hasn't received anything yet."

Sim Hwei-ru: "Oh no. How could this be? I'll definitely look into this."

Li Wang: "Thank you Miss. Sima I appreciate... I mean she'll definitely appreciate it."

Sima Hwei-ru: "Think nothing of it. Dr. Li is a very valuable client. If there's nothing else then I'll be ending the call."

Li Wang: "Bye Miss. Sima. Thank y.." He heard the line go dead.
