Xu Er held Bai Shasha close and laughed, "Of course it’s a little secret!"
Long Wu clicked his tongue, "ng ng, let’s not listen, lest it corrupts our ears!"
He was worried that the topic of not being pregnant might co up and make Xu Er feel uncomfortable.
Su ng shot him a glare, her expression seemingly saying, "You just have to insert yourself everywhere, don’t you?"
Long Wu touched his nose feeling awkward, sighing, "Ah, the road ahead is long and tough."
Xu Er exchanged a knowing glance with Long Wu and then turned to Bai Shasha, "By the way, why are you still hanging out with Leng Er?"
Long Wu was also puzzled, "Yeah, what’s the deal with you two being together?"
Logically speaking, Bai Shasha going to the hospital for a check-up wouldn’t involve Leng Er’s company—it was simply against his nature. If it had been his Sisi’s pregnancy, it would make more sense.
Li Si sighed, "It’s such a complicated story! You all better comfort Shasha and well—we nearly got sulfuric acid thrown at us to ruin our faces!"
Su ng gasped loudly, "What happened? Spill it, quick!"
Xu Er anxiously looked at Bai Shasha, "Honey! Are you okay?"
How could things escalate to sulfuric acid and disfigurent?
Bai Shasha waved her hand dismissively, "I’m fine!" Thinking back, she still felt deeply guilty. "Actually, it was my fault; if I hadn’t dragged Li Si to that café, maybe none of this would have happened."
"Shasha! Don’t think like that; Tian Yaru was clearly targeting . If anyone should feel guilty, it’s .
Had you not been with , you probably wouldn’t have encountered such a thing!"
Su ng grew impatient, "You two, stop blaming yourselves! You’re driving us nuts—what exactly happened?"
How did Tian Yaru get involved in this?
She knew about the tangled relationship between Tian Yaru and Li Si.
Li Si concisely explained the events, with Bai Shasha interjecting occasionally. By the ti everyone heard the whole story, they were furious.
Long Wu slamd the table, "What kind of person does this? Trying to pull soone down with them even when dying?"
Soone like that deserves to suffer from a terminal illness!
Su ng patted his hand, signaling him to tone it down.
She felt, no matter the circumstance, they were still people related to Li Si by blood.
As friends, it wouldn’t be appropriate to overcriticize.
Xu Er rarely showed a gloomy expression, "Committing such acts and still daring to plead for leniency? How shaless!"
He then squeezed Bai Shasha’s hand tightly, "Don’t worry, dear, your husband is back now!"
Li Si glanced at the group’s outrage and the deep grimness in Leng Mochen’s eyes. She gently rubbed his hand to console him and smiled, "Alright now! Nothing happened in the end, right? Let’s talk about sothing else. As for the judgnt, whatever the law decides is fine—I will not compromise!"
No matter how the story spreads in the future or what people might say about her.
To Tian Yaru, she would never be lenient nor let her off easily.
Although Jiang Tong had already called earlier to inform her that the two injured bodyguards were now out of danger,
Li Si still didn’t want to let this go!
"Exactly! Why should we compromise? This ti it didn’t result in harm, but if sothing had happened, Shasha and I would’ve been disfigured! We must expose this properly."
Bai Shasha was fuming. When she finished her statent at the police station, all she saw was Tian Yaruo, Ye Duowei, and Mrs. Tian Sr. sitting there.
She truly didn’t know what kind of events unfolded during her absence.
That Ye Duowei was disgusting enough, claiming Tian Yaru rely intended to scare Li Si.
How could she say that? Absolutely ridiculous!
Suddenly, Long Wu’s phone on the dining table rang.
The call interrupted their conversation.
Long Wu glanced at the caller ID with an annoyed look and directly hung up.
"Who is it?" Su ng, now paying close attention to Long Wu’s phone calls, asked. After certain events, she no longer bottled up her curiosity like before.
"Yin Rui, that jerk!"
Just ntioning this person infuriated Long Wu.
At Uncle Xu’s birthday banquet, his girlfriend had created a scene, and afterward, Yin Rui still ca to apologize.
Does apologizing an everything goes back to normal? Impossible! Yin Rui had beco soone he refused to associate with.
Moreover, he planned to crush him hard one day, to vent his anger and ng ng’s grievances.
Su ng felt Long Wu’s gaze but calmly glanced at him without saying a word.
The scene from that day, although Long Wu made many efforts to make up for it later, still remained a thorn in her heart.
No matter how much they might argue or have conflicts as a couple, when outsiders insulted her like that, he acted as an onlooker.
That incident was a real betrayal of trust and left her disheartened.
Warming a heart might take a long ti, but chilling it could happen in a single mont—with just one event, one sentence.
When they heard it was Yin Rui, everyone present showed expressions of disdain.
Li Si whispered to Leng Mochen, "How does he still have the nerve to contact Brother Wu?"
She had heard about how Long Wu had made Yin Rui feel humiliated.
Leng Mochen snorted, "It’s obvious he wants sothing!"
Yin Rui’s girlfriend, He Zixi, ca from a family that dealt in jewelry, and Long Wu’s father was a highly respected figure in the antique circle. He Zixi had clearly misunderstood the situation that day.
But now, thinking of He Zixi’s connection to He Yinyin, Leng Mochen’s gaze darkened.
And through recent investigations, he discovered that Lu Qilin was curiously acquainted with Wang Ruotong’s uncle, Liu Yuanqing.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have arranged for Jin Jiachao to et him at that club.
The thought of Lu Qilin’s upcoming eting with him stirred suspicions. Had soone leaked certain information?
Maybe that’s why He Zixi had been prying so extensively about Li Si?
If that’s truly the case, things could get very troubleso!
Nonetheless, he already had an action plan in mind!
Li Si let out a knowing laugh, "No wonder!"
Who would willingly lower themselves to anyone? It’s always about interests!
Xu Er and Bai Shasha were talking about Yin Rui too.
"Are you really going to his wedding?" Bai Shasha asked casually, but Xu Er could sense her displeasure.
"We’ll see. If I’m busy, I won’t go!" Xu Er replied tentatively, knowing that Yin Rui had attended his father’s birthday banquet.
If Xu Er boycotted Yin Rui’s wedding, it might make him seem petty and incapable of tolerance.
At that mont, a gentle knock sounded at the private room’s door.
Long Wu responded, "Co in!"
Li Si saw it was the waitstaff, who began bringing in dishes on food carts.
The aroma of the food filled the room, making her realize how hungry she was.
After breakfast that morning, she had gone out to pick up Bai Shasha.
When they left the hospital feeling frustrated, it wasn’t yet noon, so she hadn’t ordered food at the café—just a cup of coffee.
Later, not only did she run into Yin Xian and Leng Mo but also dealt with the Tian Yaruo incident and got caught up at the police station. It was only now that actual food was before her.
Leng Mochen noticed her staring at the steak, practically drooling, and couldn’t help but laugh, patting her back gently, "Starving, huh? Eat up!"
Li Si glanced at everyone and said with a smile, "Shasha and I are starving, so we’re digging in now!"
As she spoke, she grabbed a knife and fork and began eating.
Everyone smiled and joined her, starting their al.
