Chapter 1025: Chapter 1119: The Li Family Has a Daughter Who Overwhelms the Nation and the City (Part 2)

For an average family, like the Tang or Mo Families, reaching Half-step into Void Energy by their fifties or sixties is already quite an accomplishment, quite impressive indeed.

For example, Tang Ying of the Tang Family, who was also a direct heir and even controlled the family’s intelligence system, undeniably had plenty of resources at his disposal. Yet, at the age of forty-eight, he had only achieved Half-step into Void Energy, which could hardly be compared to someone like Li Ming from the peripheral branches of the family, let alone the genius direct heirs of these families.

The girl, reminded by Li Ming, quickly stuck out her tongue playfully and then dived into the car.

Although she was the direct daughter of the family, her physique had prevented her from ever practicing martial arts.

If the girl had been a boy, she would certainly have been scorned by the younger generation of her family or by the children of the other families among the Eight Great Families, who would have all looked down upon her.

But since she was a girl, her physical condition had made her the treasured jewel of the family from a young age, held in the palms of their hands for fear of falling, cherished in their mouths for fear of dissolving, tenderly cared for with the utmost caution.

Once the girl got into the car, Li Ming closed the door for her and then slid into the passenger seat, subsequently instructing the driver to set off.

In the car, the girl would occasionally strike up a conversation with Li Ming, who didn’t seem bothered at all and responded to each remark.Suddenly, the girl mentioned her favorite show, Xuanyuan’s Great Voices. She could be described as a die-hard fan of the program; she had not missed a single episode in the nine years it had been on air.

Now, in the tenth year of Xuanyuan’s Great Voices, her heart was filled with an inexplicable anticipation.

Due to studies, the girl had been restraining herself from watching the show in her dormitory these past days, and now that the weekend had finally come and she was back home, she naturally wanted to indulge herself in a proper binge-watching session.

Li Ming knew that Miss Li was a music enthusiast, and he also knew that due to her family’s standing, she actually didn’t have many friends.

Apart from schoolmates, Li Xiaoya could hardly find anyone else to talk to because the Li Family would not allow their miss to lower her standards by mingling with those of a lower status.

Yet, the young ladies from other families among the Eight Great Families might not necessarily be inclined to associate with Li Xiaoya, as it was well known that she was delicate and lacked any cultivation.

As descendants of an Ancient Martial Family, especially a direct heir, not to have even reached the Mingjin level of cultivation was naturally considered contemptible.

The reason Li Xiaoya couldn’t practice martial arts was her physical condition, but which of those pampered young ladies would listen to such an excuse?

The young masters, on the other hand, were all too willing to mingle with Li Xiaoya, but the intentions behind their advances were clear—not just to the Li Family but also to Li Xiaoya herself.

Therefore, fitting into that group was extremely difficult for Li Xiaoya. She was destined to be someone others isolated.

However, Li Xiaoya didn’t really care about this. She had things she enjoyed, particularly since something unexpected happened in the Li Family. Since then, Li Xiaoya had completely isolated herself from other families, for she was very sensitive at heart; she felt that after that incident at home, the other families looked at the Li Family with covetous eyes, harboring ill intentions.

There were many things that Li Xiaoya kept deep within her heart, enduring silently on her own.

She knew she was of no use, unable to contribute to the family, but as a family of high society, the Li Family didn’t need her to put in any effort at all.

Maybe one day, Li Changlin would face difficulties, and by then, perhaps she could play a certain role.

In fact, Li Xiaoya was also aware that the fate of many Family daughters was already sealed on the day they were born, which was to enter into political marriages.

The Li Family was still powerful, so they did not need to bend to the will of others. However, ever since the accident that befell the Li Family three years ago, the foundation of the Family had begun to shake.

Li Xiaoya did not know whether the Li Family would remain as powerful as it was today in the years to come, or whether another Family might replace them.

Just days before, there had been rumors outside that the Lin Family was arranging a marriage with the Zhou Family. What were they trying to do, replace the Li Family?

These thoughts had never been spoken to others by Li Xiaoya, who kept them deeply hidden in her mind.

In fact, Li Xiaoya knew that these things that she had thought of, her father, grandfather, and ancestors had naturally thought of as well.

Only now, the Li Family Head House was left without an heir!

Thinking of her brother, Li Xiaoya couldn’t help but want to cry, she quickly turned her head to the window, her eyes already misting up with fog.

An hour later, the car entered the Li Family estate, a manor that spanned at least one hundred thousand square meters.

The car slowly came to a stop in front of a building, and without waiting for Li Ming to come to open the door, Li Xiaoya eagerly pushed the door open, having already seen a noble woman looking out from the entrance.

That was her mother, who must have been waiting outside for a long time.

"Mother!" As Li Xiaoya got out of the car, she sprinted towards the noblewoman.

"Ah, slow down, slow down, be careful not to fall," the woman called Fu Mandie said, seeing her daughter run over so quickly, she hurriedly warned in a fluster and also moved forward to meet her.

Li Xiaoya threw herself into her mother’s arms with a giggle, and Fu Mandie lovingly hugged her daughter, then brought her into the house, while Li Ming and the driver quickly drove away.

Once in the hall, Li Xiaoya asked if her father was there, but she was told that he had gone to Ji Province and might not return any time soon, as the Li Family’s business in Ji Province was facing some troubles. Li Chengde, following his father’s arrangement, had to stay in Ji Province for a while.

Li Xiaoya guessed at once that this must be the other Families meddling behind the scenes, intending to weaken the Li Family’s power. But since they usually operated from the shadows, although the Li Family had their suspicions, without evidence, there was nothing they could do.

"Xiaoya, you go and rest for a while, and later mother will personally cook and make a few of your favorite dishes," they chatted for a while, and then Fu Mandie stood up with a smile.

The woman came home once a week to stay the night, and she would always cook her daughter’s favorite foods. However, seeing her daughter grow up day by day, Fu Mandie knew that the opportunities to cook for her would become fewer and fewer.

Just thinking of that, her heart ached.

In fact, Fu Mandie had three children. Her eldest son had joined the military to develop his career, but an accident three years ago had caused the death of her eldest son while on duty, which shook the entire Li Family, and the other Seven Great Families also began to harbor ill intentions towards the Li Family.
