âWhen did I say I was lame?!â
Li Xiaoâs voice was cold. He quickly buttoned up Jing Xiâs shirt and went back to his wheelchair.
Jing Xiâs tears were still falling.ââWhy are you sitting in a wheelchair if youâre not crippled? I thought your legs were broken!â
âDoes my broken legs have anything to do with you? This is family li, not a place you should be. Go back to family Jingâs territory, this is my world!â
âWhat does it have to do with you whether I wear my clothes or not? Why are you in such a hurry to button me up?â
Li Xiaoâs gloved hands clenched into fists, but then he loosened them. Ignoring Jing Xi, he pushed the wheelchair button and slowly walked away.
Jing Xi felt terrible as she watched him disappear into the fog.
She put on her coat again and walked out in the direction that Li Xiao had left in.
She was no longer in the mood to look for Li Jing. All she wanted to do now was to get out of this dark forest.
However, after walking for a long time, she still couldnât get out. She seemed to be walking in circles.
When she was exhausted, the old Butler of the Li family appeared in front of Jing Xi. He bowed slightly and said respectfully,ââMiss Jing, please come with me. Itâll be difficult to get out of this forest if you barge in by mistake.â
Jing Xi followed the old Butler in silence. After a while, she asked,ââWho asked you to come and take me out?â
âItâs my familyâs young master,â
âWhen did your young master come back?â
The old Butler smiled.âItâs been three years. I even carried him when he was young. Now, heâs getting more and more majestic!â
Three years?
Thatâs not right!
The timing didnât match!
Didnât Luo Feiyang say that Li Xiao had only appeared in the Li family in the last six months to fight for the familyâs assets with Li Jing?
Or was the old Butler lying?
Jing Xiâs mind was in a mess, and her eyes were full of doubt.âIs your young master crippled?â
âMiss Jing, did you see young master walking? Sigh, his leg is sometimes good and sometimes bad, but he can stand up and walk occasionally. The doctor comes to perform acupuncture on the young master every day, and heâs getting better. â
Really lame?
No, no, no, he wouldn ât!
Lou Zilingâs leg was definitely fine. This Li Xiao was not Lou Ziling!
âMiss Jing, please donât ask about young master. He doesnât like it when people ask him about these things. He gets angry every time our eldest miss mentions it.â
âHeâs so fierce, and I can see that youâre quite afraid of him. Why do I feel like youâre still very good to him?â
The old Butlerâs smile deepened the wrinkles on his face.âAlthough young master is fierce, as long as he doesnât do anything wrong, his life isnât in danger. My son and daughterâs jobs were arranged by young master, and now theyâre running the restaurant for young master. My grandchildren have also entered a good school. Even if I die, I can rest in peace. Naturally, I have to do my best for young master!â
So good at buying peopleâs hearts?
This was not Lou Zilingâs style!
Could she have guessed wrong?
Back at the hotel, Jing Xi took a shower and sat on the bed in a daze.
Was it?
Li Xiao had wrapped himself up and refused to even show his hands. There must be a problem.
If he had not worn gloves, Jing Xi would have been able to tell if it was him by just looking at his hands.
The joints of his hands were distinct, and his fingers were slender and good-looking. They could almost be used as hand models.
No, she had to confirm it one more time!
At night, Jing Xi changed into black sportswear and light sneakers and sneaked into the Li familyâs Manor again.
It was easy to get lost at night, but Jing Xi couldnât care less. It was easy to be discovered during the day, and it was better to hide at night.
Moreover, she had walked once during the day and already knew the general direction.
The Li familyâs Manor was pitch black. There wasnât even a lamp at the entrance. It was gloomy and looked like a Cemetery.
Jing Xi did not believe in ghosts at first, but her teeth were chattering when she saw this. This Manor was like a monster that could devour human flesh. She could die if she was not careful.
But today, unexpectedly, Jing Xi walked out of the large pine and cypress forest smoothly and arrived at the banquet hall where the birthday party was held yesterday.
Perhaps it was because it was already late at night, but the banquet hall was not lit up, and no one was guarding it.
Li Xiaoâs residence was located in the courtyard behind the banquet hall. Jing Xi sneaked in without a sound.
The yard didnât look big, but the interior was extremely spacious. There were countless rooms, and Jing Xi had to search through more than a dozen before she found Li Xiaoâs bedroom.
There was a faint medicinal fragrance in the bedroom. It was clean and tidy.
There was a person lying on the bed, seemingly sleeping soundly.
Jing Xi looked around at the decoration of the room. It was simple and elegant, and all the furniture was made of wood. It did not look modern at all.
She frowned slightly. Lou Ziling was both a minimalist and a modernized person. His room was decorated in a simple and modern way because it would make life more convenient.
This Li Xiao â¦
She walked to the bed, wanting to see how Li Xiao slept. She wanted to see if he was wearing a mask when he slept.
However, as soon as she looked over, a gun was pointed at the back of her head.
âMiss Jing, itâs late at night, and youâre here to visit me. Is there something you need?â
Li Xiao entered the bedroom in the wheelchair. The lights in the room were turned on, and Jing Xi could see clearly that it was not Li Xiao lying on the bed. It was a fake person made according to his body proportion!
Behind her, a Man in Black had appeared out of nowhere and was pointing a gun at her. His eyes were dead silent.
Jing Xi shivered. This man was a top killer!
âDid you think that I wouldnât kill you?â
Li Xiao was still wearing the dark gold mask and a hat. He was dressed in black and looked even colder than the killer with the gun.
âDonât block my way. This is my last warning to you! I donât care what agreement you made with Li Jing, you better give up now!â
âTell me who you are and Iâll leave you alone. Otherwise, donât even think about getting a single cent from the Li family!â
âHa â¦â
Li Xiao let out a breath and said indifferently,ââIâm Li Xiao, the only heir of the Li family in the future. I donât care if I donât take the Li familyâs money, but if I have nothing, you and your family will have nothing too! My patience is limited. Since you keep looking for death, Iâll send you on your way first!â
Jing Xi was sure that he would not dare to touch her, which was why he had run to the Li family so unscrupulously.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou wonât kill me. If you kill me, you wonât be able to live!â He said.
âNo, miss Jing, youâve misunderstood. Iâm such a smart person, how could I kill you with my own hands? Li Jing alone was enough! When you are dead, I can use the power of family Jing to get rid of my third sister. â
Li Xiao suddenly laughed and said,âha, if she dies, everything in the Li family will be mine!â If you die, family Jing will avenge me with a huge sum of money. I am the biggest winner!â
