"Really, if you don’t believe , go and ask around. It’s all over the place, and just when I was coming here, I happened to run into ng Jiayi. She said she was going to look for Zishen, smiling so happily, and even called ’Uncle’."
"It’s impossible, I’m going to find Zishen."
However, Li Jingshan had just walked a few steps when he quickly turned back.
Going now seed a bit inappropriate.
"What’s wrong? Not going anymore?" Li Wanshan raised an eyebrow, slowly twisting open a bottle of mineral water.
"I’ve t Old Mrs. ng a few tis, a very strong-willed person, how could she because of... And ng Jiayi... hasn’t she always been averse to doing business? She even publicly stated that she would rather starve in the streets than go back."
"Love , love my dog, right?"
"But you previously said..."
"Old Mrs. ng wants to collaborate with Leng Lingxiao, but she definitely can’t withstand her daughter’s persistent nagging. After all, she only had such a precious daughter at the age of 45. If it were you, getting a precious child at an old age, think about it, wouldn’t you give her anything she wanted?"
Li Jingshan was stunned by these words.
Did Second Brother already know?
No, it’s not possible, not possible.
The speaker might not intend it, but Li Jingshan, who indeed was of an age, only then found out that he had a son, and a very outstanding one at that.
His affair with Yuan Min and the fact that they had a son could only be hidden for now.
Once exposed, the consequences were unimaginable.
"You just wait to attend the wedding feast," Li Wanshan said, thinking his brother agreed to the marriage alliance, his mood very buoyant.
"It won’t happen, no chance, Zishen must have other plans," Li Jingshan said thoughtfully.
He understood his nephew and knew he wouldn’t.
"Tis change!" Li Wanshan took a sip of water and sat straight down at the table. "Tang Xiaowan already registered with Leng Lingxiao last month, and their wedding is in a few days. Zishen knows waiting is pointless, so he might as well settle for second best."
What a ’settle for second best’!
In the past, Li Jingshan had also desperately waited for Yuan Min. When his older brother Li Zhenshan passed away, he thought Yuan Min would choose him to spend the rest of their lives together, as they had once been intimate. Unfortunately, Yuan Min was fully focused on competing with Li Wanshan for the family property.
He beca deeply lancholic for a while and eventually had to settle for second best by marrying and having a daughter.
"Has the sister-in-law also already..."
"Even if Zishen doesn’t say, given ng Jiayi’s impulsive nature, she probably has already made the call, and she might even visit in person."
Li Jingshan gave a faint smile, thinking that if it really was over, it would be fine, as a true man is never without a wife.
...
Two hours later, at Huang City Leng Family.
"Master, ng Jiayi has already left Nanjiang Villa, and the gifts were accepted," Zhao Renjie opened the images on his phone to show Leng Lingxiao.
In the images, not only was there a mont of her peeking her head out as she left the villa, but also of her knocking on the door personally and carrying the gifts herself.
Clearly, this lady ca prepared.
Leng Lingxiao had people stationed around Nanjiang Villa, not to monitor ng Jiayi, though.
He was worried that Tang Xiaowan might sneak off to seek revenge on Yuan Min, having his people there could also provide backup if needed, and even cover for her if necessary.
"Li Zishen didn’t go?"
"No."
Hearing this, Leng Lingxiao seed to think of sothing and slowly stood up from the sofa.
"Strange, I wonder who let out the news? The Leng Family wouldn’t really be planning a marriage alliance with the ng Family, would they?" Zhao Renjie said aningfully.
Leng Lingxiao’s thin lips curved slightly: "You may go."
"Yes."
Who else could it be?
Definitely his dear father-in-law Wang Junchen.
But upon further reflection, he felt sothing was amiss.
Right now, Anzhi ng was in the midst of competing with 8028 for the market share and Wang Junchen would not possibly sabotage his own position to serve the interests of others at this critical juncture.
The ng Family held significant resources!
Could it be... Tangtang?
To confirm his suspicion, shortly after, he made a call to Tang Xiaowan.
"What’s up? Didn’t we just talk this noon?"
Tang Xiaowan’s delicate voice ca through the phone, making Leng Lingxiao’s heart itch.
Three calls a day aren’t enough!
"Tangtang, how are your bridesmaids? Have you t them all?" Leng Lingxiao fiddled with the brass lighter, his expression one of knowing contentnt.
"Ah, so you’re trying to steal so intelligence?"
"I’m not thinking about... That way, during the fetching of the bride, I can... see you sooner! Just in case there is another formidable woman, then..."
Leng Lingxiao’s randomly fabricated reason was cut off as Tang Xiaowan laughed.
"Don’t worry, they are all gentle girls. I’ve got so things to take care of, so I’ll hang up now. We’ll talk more tonight. Love you, love you, muah!"
Leng Lingxiao: "?"
Just as he had put down the phone and hadn’t recovered from the conversation, Shen Yiming called him.
"Hey, I’m saying, Lingxiao, are you coming back? Hai Sheng is pretty much on track now, do you think I should continue following up as a consultant?"
"Decide for yourself." Leng Lingxiao furrowed his brow, his response terse.
At this mont, his mind wasn’t really on these matters.
His little wife must be hiding sothing from him, most likely related to Yuan Min.
Shen Yiming: "..."
"Please, I’m doing this for your wife, can you be a bit more serious? Don’t bla later for saying I..."
"The decision is yours, handle it yourself."
Though Shen Yiming seed to be frivolous and always joking, he was actually very clear-headed and knew what should and shouldn’t be done.
"Oh, you should have said so earlier!" Shen Yiming laughed heartily, raising an eyebrow, "So, are you coming back or not?"
"I’m busy preparing for the wedding."
He was really telling a white lie at the mont, as there were only a few days left until the wedding and everything that needed to be prepared had been taken care of by professionals.
Shen Yiming felt embarrassed to point out his true purpose, "Are you kidding? Do you even need to prepare that yourself?"
"Seriously, you’re a grown man, can you show a bit more resolve? It’s just six days apart, and soon you’ll see that girl..."
While he was teasing Leng Lingxiao for being bewitched by his wife, the black SUV carrying Tang Xiaowan had been followed by a black sedan all the way.
The distance between the two cars was close and the pursuit had started as soon as Tang Xiaowan left Nanfeng Mansion.
Inside the SUV, Cheng Shi was dead serious.
"They’re quick!" Tang Xiaowan glanced at the rear mirror, then pulled out a completely black bottle from her purse, "Heading to Hey K, I heard their equipnt isn’t bad, let’s give it a try later."
Hey K was a live ammunition shooting club operating on a mbership basis.
Cheng Shi frowned, "Yes."
As a bodyguard, he always stuck to his own role, never asking questions that he shouldn’t.
"Also, don’t sneakily tell Old Zhao, lest Huahua... just don’t tell anyone." Tang Xiaowan put the black bottle back into a compartnt of her purse, instructing him earnestly, "I don’t want Huahua to worry, he’s already done enough for ."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shi’s heart tightened.
Mr. Leng doesn’t know?
Was the plan all Miss’s own idea?
