"Huahua, I miss you so much!" Tang Xiaowan took a deep breath and stared intently at the screen.
Her slightly upturned red lips and star-bright eyes imdiately captivated Leng Lingxiao, and he suddenly forgot what he had wanted to say.
He missed her too, so much that he was almost going crazy, and he hadn’t even eaten dinner.
If it wasn’t for tradition, at this mont, he should be holding her, eating fruit, watching a movie, and thoroughly enjoying their world together.
"I’ll co to pick you up now, wait for ."
"Forget it, let’s not et. We can’t break the rules. Six days...no, just five days left."
He was such a temptation!
She almost agreed.
Leng Lingxiao was indeed handso, so much so that after 15 years, Tang Xiaowan still felt she couldn’t get enough of him, and after they got their certificate, she beca even more infatuated.
Leng Lingxiao: "..."
You just said you missed , right?
Little rascal!
"Tangtang, do whatever you want to do. I’m here to take care of everything. Getting rid of Bai Long is easy, leave that matter to ."
"Huahua, I want to handle it myself."
"I know, don’t worry. I won’t get too involved, at most I’ll just help you out."
Leng Lingxiao understood his little wife; Tang Xiaowan had always been like this since she was a child. If soone bullied her, she had to hit back personally before she would relent.
Why should I accept and forgive you just because you apologize and give a candy?
His Little Tangtang always sought revenge.
"Huahua, do you think we could have been father and daughter, or siblings, in our past life? I always feel like no matter what, I can’t stay away from you."
"We must have been husband and wife, anything else is unacceptable!" Leng Lingxiao replied seriously.
"Stop it, you know that’s not what I ant."
"I know, I know, haha."
At that mont, at the bedroom door, Wang ijuan saw through the half-open solid wood door that Tang Xiaowan was still video chatting with Leng Lingxiao and tiptoed away.
Fruit is not as sweet as Mr. Leng!
With his participation, the plan is sure to succeed.
Who knew, just after Wang ijuan turned around and hadn’t walked far, she ran into Cheng Shi in the hallway.
"Where’s the young lady?"
"She’s video chatting with Mr. Leng."
"Oh, I see! Do you think Bai Long will go? What if Mr. Li has already realized he’s been tricked and heads straight back to Jin City?"
He was sowhat worried, feeling uneasy inside.
"Stop fretting!" Wang ijuan grinned and leaned in close, "Let’s make a bet, ten thousand."
Cheng Shi: "?"
Is she implying she wants my salary card?
"Okay, I’m in."
"Just wait and see, Li Zishen won’t leave Huang City until the wedding is over."
"Why?"
"Ever heard of being too clever for your own good? Humph, love...it’s a magical thing. The more impossible it seems, the more you want it, especially for those with bewildering confidence...the narcissists!"
Wang ijuan aningfully patted Cheng Shi on the shoulder, then quickly walked away.
Cheng Shi: Narcissist?
Well, a bit, always pestering the young lady.
But how is that sounding so...
The more Cheng Shi thought about it, the more sothing felt off, suspecting Wang ijuan was implying sothing about him, so he hurriedly chased after her and tried to explain.
...
Eight o’clock at night, dermatology departnt at the hospital.
"Brother Shen, I think this matter..." Chen Xin suddenly stopped speaking midway, seemingly uneasy about continuing.
Li Zishen’s gaze darkened.
"You think it’s sabotage?"
Indeed, that was his suspicion, although he was not entirely certain yet.
"Oh, right, Brother Shen, when Dr. Li arrives, should we have Bai Long co over as well?" Chen Xin cleared his throat and quickly changed the subject.
"Will that make it easier for your treatnt?"
"No, it’s mainly because of my condition..."
Li Zishen gave him a glance; indeed, it would be inconvenient, and going out like this might even cause a panic.
His symptoms were too similar to those of an infectious disease!
Xiao Wan, was it you?
Chen Xin privately asking Chen Yu for information was definitely wrong, but Xiao Wan was not the kind of girl to be petty!
At that mont, his phone rang; it was Bai Long.
Li Zishen frowned and quickly walked to the balcony, sliding the door shut behind him.
"Got any news?"
"Yes, we’ve cleared it up; the rumor started at the front desk and was ntioned to the upstairs, the front desk clerk said a girl who ca for an interview this morning talked about her brother being ng Jiayi’s assistant..."
Listening to Bai Long’s report, Li Zishen’s bright phoenix eyes inadvertently grew colder.
Self-directed and self-acted, worthy of soone studying to be a playwright.
Thinking this will make marry you?
Dream on, so presumptuous.
"There’s another issue, Brother Shen, there’s a minor situation at Chi Sea," Bai Long paused before continuing, "I need to go there; the structure is fine, but there’s a problem with the cent and gravel..."
This period, the construction progress had been smooth. If nothing went wrong, by this ti next year, the five-star business hotel owned by Li Zishen in Chicheng should be completed.
Originally, he wanted to build a seven-star resort hotel, but considering Tang Xiaowan’s Chi Sea, he ultimately settled on a five-star business hotel.
"It must be Leng Lingxiao," Bai Long reported angrily, "No one else but him!"
"We’ll block the warriors with generals, and stem the water with earth."
"Okay, I’ll prepare right away."
After hanging up, Li Zishen stood on the balcony for a long ti, his mind full of what Tang Xiaowan had said to him at the HeiK Club.
So, just by not going to Huang City, everything would be fine?
Right, on such joyful days, no one wants to see their enemy at the wedding.
Li Zishen imdiately took out his phone, intending to have a serious talk with his mother, but before he could make the call, another call ca in.
It was none other than his mother, Yuan Min.
"Where are you now? In Huang City?"
Li Zishen glanced at Chen Xin on the hospital bed, who averted his gaze, and imdiately understood why his mother would suddenly call.
"Here to visit Jiang Yongheng."
"The Jiang Family is already collaborating with Wang Junchen; what’s there left to visit?"
"The collaboration involves Jiang Yongxing and Jiang Yongli, it has nothing to do with Jiang Yongheng." Li Zishen slid the door open and sat directly on the bed.
His movents were so rough that they startled Chen Xin.
Brother Shen, I didn’t say anything, only that I was on a business trip in Huang City.
"Do you really expect Jiang Yongheng to persuade his siblings to give up the partnership and continue following him, blowing in the northwest wind? Stop dreaming, that’s impossible."
"Business is business, sentints are sentints."
"You’re going for Xiao Wan, aren’t you?" Yuan Min scoffed, her tone tinged with reproach, "Still haven’t thought it through? ng Jiayi likes you, her family deals in dicinal materials as well, and it’s a suitable match; why can’t you see that?"
"I’m not interested in her!" Li Zishen’s response was resolute, without a hint of hesitation.
"But it’s already being talked about everywhere; how do you expect that girl to face people? You can’t just act based on personal preferences; Xiao Wan is a fine girl, I genuinely like her too, but she’s already registered her marriage with Leng Lingxiao, it’s not possible to keep hoping on a single tree..."
Before she could finish, the phone was hung up.
This infuriated Yuan Min; she imdiately stood up from the recliner, ready to dial again.
