Chapter 1585: Chapter 1586: Let go with you.
The woman walking quickly in front suddenly stopped and looked at him sharply, “You said he lives nearby?”
The butler was startled by her abrupt gesture, “…Mr. Li?”
Chu Xi tried to maintain a composed deanor, striving to control herself, “Yes.”
“It seems like it. I’ve only heard of it, not really sure if Mr. Li truly lives around here. It’s not surprising if he does, though. This area is Capital City’s affluent district, with a pri location and superior environnt. Many high-end communities and city-center villa districts are in this stretch. I rember Mr. Li has several properties here, but I don’t know exactly which one he lives in. I just heard soone say they saw him in this area.”
Chu Xi rubbed her chin, lost in thought, and suddenly said to him, “Can you help look into it?”
“Uh.”
Chu Xi didn’t want to be like this either, but she had no choice! That man refused to see her; even going to the company to corner him was futile. She wanted to et him and had to find another way. If she could find out where he lived, he couldn’t possibly avoid her anymore!
“Please, help find out.”
The butler hesitated for a mont, then nodded, “I’ll look into it. The place he stays shouldn’t be hard to find, but the exact apartnt number might be difficult. Mr. Li surely has spoken to the property managent; those people won’t leak any information. Unless we go to the neighborhood and search ourselves, it would be very hard to find.”
“It’s okay. I just want to know if he lives near . I might have a chance to bump into him.”
Influenced by Jiang Chenyue, the butler also believed she was truly Miss Chu and, linking her with the unbroken marriage pact with Li Shengxiao, didn’t pay much attention to her words, “Alright, Miss. Let’s go back.”
Learning that Li Shengxiao also lived nearby, she finally didn’t reject the place as much. She nodded in a fairly good mood.
…
After Qin Jun left the coffee shop, he didn’t imdiately return to Chu Garden; he went sowhere else first.
In the south of Capital City, there is an undeveloped residential area filled with Tube Buildings, with a mottled exterior that looks grimy under the glow of the sunset. Every household in the Tube Buildings has a vermilion wooden door. The surrounding electric poles are tangled with wires, with a few dark birds perched on them, just like this outdated area, the cawing of the birds adding a desolate feel.
A black luxury car slowly stopped by the roadside. The driver looked at the elderly people coming in and out of the Tube Building across the street and uncertainly turned back to ask, “Mr. Qin, do you really want to co here to find soone?”
This place, apart from the remaining elderly and out-of-town workers in Capital City who can’t afford to rent a good place, scarcely has anyone else.
What kind of person could Mr. Qin, with his status, be looking for here?
Qin Jun opened the car door, gaze firm, and stepped out with his long legs first, “Wait here for !”
“Let go with you.”
The driver followed him out. The height and deanor of the two attracted the attention of many elderly people at the entrance. However, they only glanced at them. This group of elderly people, already entering their twilight years, had long lost interest in strangers. Coming or going, identity and status ant nothing to them. Half their bodies already in the grave, their only concerns were physical health, perhaps occasionally playing a long card ga with old neighbors at the door. A stranger ant less to them than winning or losing a half-yuan bet.
Qin Jun glanced at him, hands in his coat pockets, and coldly ordered, “Stay in the car. I’ll be out soon.”
