Chapter 1245: Chapter 1245: The Next Part is Up to You
Uncle Simiao had to leave urgently for a two-day business trip the day before yesterday, and he just got back today, still thinking about a certain soone intensely.
Just when the two were in a deeply affectionate mont, an untily ring of a phone call interrupted…
Xi Rui was about to reach for her phone, but was stopped by Shang Simiao, “You still have ti to answer the phone in this situation?” continuing his action.
But the phone, being insensitive, kept ringing non-stop.
“Simiao, let just answer it! It might be sothing really urgent!”
Shang Simiao could only get up unwillingly, sitting aside with a huff.
Xi Rui glanced at Shang Simiao before answering the phone.
“Xi Rui, there’s sothing I can only ask you to handle.”
“What is it?” Xi Rui could hear the worry in Zi Yan’s voice.
“I and Lu Ting need to leave for a few days, and I’m a bit worried about what Jiang Xue’er might do during these days, so…”
“So you want to help you keep an eye on her!” Xi Rui instantly understood.
“Jian Dan is completely unguarded against Jiang Xue’er, so I’m really afraid sothing might happen.”
“Understood, don’t worry! Leave it to !”
“Great! I’m leaving this part up to you for the next few days.”
“Consider it done!”
“But the annoying part is, Jiang Xue’er is now living in Li Garden, so…”
“Understood, you an like a 24-hour surveillance, right? Got it! I’ll head over tomorrow.”
“My flight is tonight, so…”
“Got it, I’m heading over now.”
“Great! Contact anyti if there’s any situation.”
After hanging up, Xi Rui realized Shang Simiao was frowning at her, “Don’t tell you’re leaving now?”
“Hehe! What if I say yes, what would you do?”
“What would I do? Would you believe I could die right in front of you?”
“Why would you talk so scary? I know my Simiao isn’t that frail, I really need to go back to Li Garden.”
“It’s so late, what could be so urgent, and what could be more important than what we’re doing right now!”
“It really is important, you wouldn’t want anything happening to Jian Dan, right?”
“What happened to Jian Dan?”
“If I don’t go now, sothing might happen to her! So I’m heading there first.
I’ll be staying in Li Garden for the next few days, I’ll let you know before I co back!” As she spoke, she had already packed her clothes and left the room.
A frustrated Shang Simiao watched the closed door and collapsed onto the bed, rolling around.
Xi Rui, having packed, sat in the car and realized… “Why am I so nervous about Jian Dan? Are we that close?” she mused to herself.
“What was that, madam?” The driver asked upon hearing Xi Rui’s words.
“Oh! Nothing, let’s go.”
On the way, Xi Rui couldn’t help thinking~ she had to admit, she was truly taken by Jian Dan, and finally understood how formidable Shang Simiao had said Jian Dan was.
Because of Xi Rui’s help, Zi Yan could leave with a peace of mind.
Not long after Jian Dan and the others finished eating, they saw Xi Rui coming in with her luggage.
“Xi Rui, why are you here?”
“What? Not welcoming ?”
“It’s not that, I’m just surprised how Uncle Simiao let you co back?”
“It’s because…” Xi Rui almost blurted out the task Zi Yan entrusted to her, inadvertently glanced at Jiang Xue’er standing nearby and swallowed the words back “because Simiao and I had a fight, so I just left the Li house!”
“Ah? You’ve only been married for a few days, how could you have a fight?”
“This… isn’t it because we got married too hastily? We didn’t think many things through, so now you see the problem has appeared!” Xi Rui could only think of this excuse in a mont of urgency.
As she spoke, her mind kept muttering: Hubby, I had no choice but to say this, please don’t bla !
(An unwitting Shang Simiao being collateral damage.
Not only was his wife snatched away, but even his own reputation was being questioned.)
