Li Zhiwei glanced at the caller ID on the phone and immediately hung up.
“Juan, I have to go now; I’m in a bit of a hurry. Let’s keep in touch by phone.”
Du Juan did not keep her around when she saw that. “OK, go ahead. Let me know if you need anything.”
After hanging up the phone, Li Zhiwei changed back into her clothes and went out of the dress shop with Li Bai.
She called back, and listened quietly to the voice on the other end of the phone, then said, “What’s the matter? Didn’t I tell you not to provoke him?”
The person said something on the other end of the phone, but Li Zhiwei hung up the phone impatiently.
“Li Bai, go to the airport now.”
“Now?”
Li Zhiwei rubbed her temples to soothe her headache as she said, “Yes, now.”
...
...
The dress that didn’t fit Li Zhiwei was particularly beautiful and moving for Du Juan.
“I had an operation not long ago. Had it not been for that, I would be more beautiful now.”
After the operation, Du Juan always wanted to return to how she previously looked.
However, she had undergone an operation. She was a little slow to recover from her injuries.
“You are very beautiful now.”
Ye Linlang praised Du Juan, and Du Juan said with emotion, “I said I was going to be your bridesmaid back then, but I didn’t expect us to...”
“Well, let’s forget about the past.”
Ye Linlang thought that people really couldn’t just look at the past, but also had to look at the future.
She was still young and had a bright future ahead of her.
“Linlang, let’s go to see Xie Xuning in a while.”
Ye Linlang wanted to reject her, but when she thought of what Ye Tianxin said in the cemetery, she wanted to ask Xie Xining what it was all about.
...
...
“Uncle, Li Zhiwei has gone abroad.”
Upon hearing what Li Qingcang said, Xie Xuning couldn’t help but ask, “Is it today?”
“Yes, the flight’s at 2:45.”
Xie Xuning leaned on the soft pillow and frowned.
Did Li Zhiwei go abroad by plane?
Haha.
What a perfect plan.
Li Zhiwei was out of the country. If anything happened in the country, she could detach herself completely from it.
“Wait a minute, Uncle. I don’t get it; what does Li Zhiwei want if she is really X?”
Li Qingcang couldn’t figure out what would happen if Li Zhiwei was the real X. She seemed to be rather lazy, after all.
“There are many ways to do it if she only wants you.”
The worst she could do is find someone to kidnap Xie Xuning.
If that would be enough for her, would she go to all this trouble?
“I have heard that there was a treasure beyond compare...”
Xie Xuning thought about a rumor that he heard from the old men when he was a child.
“When I was a kid, I heard that someone had hidden a treasure years ago. What if X wants this?”
Xie Xuning’s words made Li Qingcang’s eyebrows jump.
What treasure?
“Li Zhiwei is a woman!” Li Qingcang asked in confusion, “What if Li Zhixing is not dead at all?”
Xie Xuning closed his eyes and thought about the treasure which he heard from the elders when he was very young.
Maybe at that time, the elders thought he was young and indifferent.
That might’ve been why the elders never avoided him when they talked about it.
If there was a treasure, did it mean that X and the young master wanted it?
This “treasure beyond compare” tempted many people.
“Li Zhixing must be dead.. His funeral had been held that year, and Qie Wang handled the aftermath of his death.”
