Chapter 252 - A Foolish Plan With A Foolish Start

Inside the room, Li Qiang made Li Rong sit on the bed who was still holding her head and pressing her temple softly.
"Rong'er, Is it that bad? Should I call for a physician?"
said Li Qiang with a frown on his forehead.
However, as soon as he started to get up from the bed, his arm was grabbed by Li Rong and he looked back at his wife questioningly.
"Qiang, don't go anywhere. Come here and sit with me."
Li Rong said in a choked voice as she looked at her husband.
Li Qiang sighed and sat back on the bed.
He smiled lightly when Li Rong's arms immediately surrounded his waist and he also hugged his wife back.
"Qiang, I missed you so much. I felt so alone when Li Caihong and Li Na…"
Li Rong whispered but could not complete her words. Li Qiang swallowed the emotions brewing inside his heart and mind. He could feel his wife's helplessness. He could also imagine her feeling so powerless when their daughters were suffering so much.
His arms around Li Rong tightened subconsciously and he whispered softly
"Do not worry now. I am here with you. You are not alone."
Li Qiang said and pushed Li Rong away from himself as he continued
"Come now. You should rest for some time."
He said as he unfolded the blanket and waited for Li Rong to lie on the bed. Li Rong, however, shook her head and looked at her husband with a frown as she said
"No, I don't want to sleep."
Li Qiang, perhaps had already expected it. He looked at Li Rong with firm eyes but Li Rong remained undeterred.
In the end, Li Qiang himself lied on the bed and opened his arms while looking at Li Rong.
"Come here."
Li Rong had found herself thirsty for this warmness for so long so she immediately made herself comfortable in her husband's arms.
She felt a hand caressing her hair and unconsciously closed her eyes. But as soon as she did, she could hear Li Caihong's screams of pain and Li Na's tearful face.
She opened her eyes abruptly and remembered Li Na's words said to her.
Since she was not facing Li Qiang, he never saw this change of emotions on her face.
"Qiang…"
Li Rong whispered and soon heard a hum.
"Qiang, what will we do? Li Na and Li Caihong…"
"Rong'er"
Li Qiang interrupted his wife before she could complete her words. He knew what she was going to say.
"Do not worry so much. Just trust me. I will not let my daughters become someone concubine or have her suffer after their marriage. Even if we didn't find a good man for them … I can always raise my daughters for their whole life."
Li Rong frowned when she heard her husband's words. She propped herself a bit and turned to look at Li Qiang.
"Qiang, you don't understand. Until when will we live? Do you think that it is so easy to live alone for your whole life?"
Li Rong looked a bit agitated and Li Qiang was rather surprised by her reaction but he only took it as her frustration because of not having a good sleep.
"I know, Rong'er."
He carresedd his wife's hair as he whispered gently and continued
"So what if we did not continue to be here for them? Li Chen is always there. I have not raised that boy for spending his life in waste. Even if our daughters get married, it is his duty to protect them until his last breathe. Also there are so many family members, why do you think that anyone will leave your daughters alone in the future?"
Li Rong's eyes went cold at Li Qiang's last words but Li Qiang didn't notice it.
He was feeling very tired and his eyes were now starting to get close as he was lying on the bed.
Li Rong also didn't bother him and let him have rest.
She just continued to sit there silently as she pondered over Li Na and her husband's words.
------
Li Na was pacing inside her room anxiously when a maid informed her that her mother was coming to her courtyard.
Li Na's eyes flashed and she immediately looked around her room and at herself in the mirror to make sure that she looked pitiful enough to make her mother feel distressed for herself.
Soon the door was knocked by someone and Li Na instantly dashed towards it.
When she opened the door she smiled softly.
The small smile on her pale face made Li Rong's heart filled with despair. She patted her daughter's hand when Li Na held her arm.
"Mother, when did you start to knock on my door? Just come whenever you want.
Li Na said as she made her mother sit on the bed.
Before Li Rong could say anything, she hurriedly asked her
"Mother, did you talk to Father?"
Li Rong's face fell instantly and she shook her head lightly and with that, the smile on Li Na's face also fell.
"You didn't?"
Li Na asked again with a forced smile. Her fists were however clenched inside her sleeves because of anger.
"No, I didn't. I think that your Father will never agree to your plans. In fact, if he even got to know about your thoughts he will be very furious."
Li Na's eyes flashed as she saw the reluctance on her mother's face.
This was not how it was supposed to be. She knew that only her mother could make her father agree. If her father didn't help her then she would not be able to do anything.
But her thoughts came to an end when Li Rong continued and said
"I think we can talk to your Father later. If we do something first that can make him realize that what we are doing can really solve everything then it will be easy to make him agree."
A frown marred Li Na's face as she looked unable to understand what her mother was saying.
Seeing this, Li Rong put her words more into detail.
"We should start to work on this without your father… you and me together."
