Awakened Multi-talented Goddess Is Doted Novel - Chapter 94

Chapter 94: The Cunning Mr. Li

Li Ting frowned as he thought about Li Hanchen. “How is Li Hanchen doing? Is he making trouble?”

The moment Li Ting brought up Li Hanchen, Li Ming recalled how he got beaten up in the villa. Li Ming’s face became a little awkward. “Things are good. Shall I find him a job in the company? Otherwise, people might say we are ill-treating him. What do you think?”

Li Ming did not mention the kind of work he had in mind for Li Hanchen. However, Li Ting could not be bothered with the details. He simply waved his hand and said, “Sure thing. I heard he has a bad constitution. Find him a doctor and don’t let him die on our watch. It will only be bad luck.”

“Okay, Dad.”

After leaving the company building, Li Ming called his assistant, “Prepare an office for Li Hanchen and give him the job title, GM’s assistant.”

The moment the assistant heard this, he was stunned. Li Ming was not a generous man. Would Li Ming ever allow Li Hanchen to become the GM’s assistant?

Sure enough, Li Ming continued, “As for his actual job, just let him work as a janitor.”

“Yes.” The assistant’s lips twitched. Sure enough, the narrow-minded Li Ming was pure evil. After all, Li Hanchen was from the Li family. It was a blatant insult to have him clean bathrooms.

After hanging up the phone, a smug look emerged on Li Ming’s face.

He could still remember the first time he saw Li Hanchen ten years ago.

Back in the day, he was still an illegitimate son.

It happened to be Li Hanchen’s ten-year-old birthday party when his mother and he hid in a corner and secretly watched as the party went on.

He reached his head out from under the tablecloth and looked at the stage in the distance. Li Hanchen was dressed in a white suit with a tie hanging from his neck and a crown on his head.

Everyone encircled him like he was a prince. The crown on his head seemed absolutely dazzling.

All the guests kept chatting with Li Hanchen. They said Li Hanchen was good at school, an excellent pianist, and a great horseback rider. He had even started to show his talent in business at such a young age. He was bound to be an excellent heir in the future.

Back in the day, Li Hanchen had everything Li Ming could only dream of. From that moment on, the seeds of hate were sown in Li Ming’s heart.

Since they were afraid Mrs. Li would catch them there, his mother quickly pulled him away after dinner. However, Li Ming’s brief glimpse of Li Hanchen was forever emblazoned in Li Ming’s heart.

Now, he finally became the true victor.

Back in the day, everyone treated Li Hanchen like a little prince. Now, Li Hanchen was not even good enough to clean his shoes. Li Hanchen could only live off Li Ming’s charity and just the thought of it gave Li Ming an adrenaline rush.

Even though he was an illegitimate son, everyone treated him like the true heir. Li Hanchen was now only good enough for cleaning the bathroom.

“Li Hanchen, everything you have is mine.” Anger swept across Li Ming’s eyes as he thought about Mu Sheng.

In the past, he was not interested in Mu Sheng. However, things had changed. The more Mu Sheng disliked him, the more he wanted her.

Just the thought of making Li Hanchen’s wife become his mistress made him excited. There was no better way of humiliating Li Hanchen than making his wife betray him.

After breakfast the next day, Mu Sheng had to head to the film location. Li Hanchen offered to give her a ride. “Give me a minute. Let me get changed.”

“Okay.” Mu Sheng sat on the couch and picked up the paper when her phone suddenly rang.

It was an unknown number. Mu Sheng tapped to answer it only to hear a familiar and annoying voice. Mu Sheng promptly reached her hand to hang up.

“I have something to tell you about Li Hanchen. See you at Li Group in an hour,” said Li Ming quickly as though he already knew Mu Sheng wanted to hang up.

Li Hanchen? Mu Sheng frowned slightly. What could he have to say about Li Hanchen?

Despite knowing Li Ming was up to no good, Mu Sheng decided to head to Li Group.

Mu Sheng was nowhere to be seen when Li Hanchen got dressed and came downstairs. Auntie Lin came over and said, “Young Madam said she had to go and would pass on the ride.”

“Got it.” Li Hanchen narrowed his eyes. He looked at the time before heading out.

Mu Sheng was sent straight to the office when she arrived at Li Group. She walked in and asked coldly, “What do you want?”

Li Ming raised his head and could not help feeling surprised. Why did Mu Sheng become even better looking than before? Her cold proud aura triggered his sense of competition and made him want to make her his. “Sheng…”

“If you want history to repeat itself, feel free to call me by my first name.” Mu Sheng crossed her arms as she looked down slightly with an imposing aura.

Li Ming swallowed his words mid-sentence. “Mu Sheng, do we have to be so formal? I invited you here to catch up with you.”

Mu Sheng turned to leave when she heard what Li Ming said.

“Hang on,” said Li Ming. However, Mu Sheng refused to halt. “I invited you over to let you see what your husband does for a living.”

Mu Sheng finally stopped and turned back.

“The moment I talk about Li Hanchen, you finally stopped.” A cold look swept across Li Ming’s eyes. “He is just a pauper. Can he give you anything? If you agree to be my woman, I promise to give you everything you want.”

Li Ming’s assistant happened to come in and whispered something to Li Ming. Li Ming looked at Mu Sheng as he smiled. “Follow me.”

Mu Sheng followed behind Li Ming and went downstairs. The moment they went past a corner, she spotted Li Hanchen standing there with his back facing them in front of a window with a bunch of cleaning tools by his feet.

“Hanchen, since you are new here, you need to acclimate first. This is where Mr. Li works. You will start by cleaning up the staircase and toilet on this floor today. I will check on your work before you knock off.”

The manager saw Li Ming from a distance and instantly had the confidence to speak even more cockily, “The toilet has to be so clean that you can drink from the toilet bowl. I want to see you drinking from the toilet bowl later. Otherwise, it isn’t clean enough.”

Li Hanchen glanced at the manager coldly, sending chills down his back suddenly. The manager wanted to do well since Li Ming was looking, but he did not dare utter a word.

Li Ming looked at Li Hanchen from behind mockingly before glancing at Mu Sheng. “We grew up together. How could I bring myself to let you stay married to this guy? He isn’t good enough for you.”

Li Hanchen’s imposing aura intensified gradually as his eyes became threatening. However, the moment he saw a silhouette in the glass windows, the atmosphere eased up.

Li Hanchen lowered his head and bent over to pick up the mop and broom by his feet as he looked at the silhouette in the reflection.

Before his hand could touch the broom, someone came from behind and kicked it aside.
