Chapter Twenty-Four: Hidden Arrows Hurt

Li Shuoxi looked up at the outside but it was only six o'clock, it was already twilight outside, and suddenly there was a knock on the door, Li Shuoxi walked to the door and opened the door, and saw Lou Yue standing outside the door with a smile, he was wearing a very formal and close-fitting suit and even a tie that revealed meticulousness.

Li Shuoxi asked obediently: "Is there anything wrong with Dad?" Lou Yue said: "Xiaoxi, there is a dinner party tonight, but you also know what happened to your mother recently, so I want you to accompany me, and I also hope that Xiaoxi will make more friends." After Li Shuoxi heard what he said, he immediately nodded and said, "Of course you can!" But I'm afraid that I don't know etiquette and lose my father's face." He lowered his head embarrassedly.

Lou Yue was originally testing Li Shuoxi, and after Lou Yinglian's accident, he had doubts about his gentle and harmless daughter on the surface, if she was really not as simple as she seemed on the surface, but had a deep mind, then she was a scourge and must be eliminated. But now that I see Li Shuoxi like this, I feel that I have thought too much, and I think that when Lou Yinglian had just made this request, she resisted for a long time. Lou Yue raised his hand and touched her head and said, "Well, how could Xiao Xi be so well-behaved and lose her father's people? ”

After Lou Yue left, Li Shuoxi closed the door and the well-behaved shyness on his face disappeared without a trace, replaced by complete indifference and sneer. At this time, there was a knock outside the door again, different from Lou Yue's urgency and force, this knock was short and light, as if he was afraid of disturbing the people inside, Li Shuoxi opened the door and saw Yan's mother standing with a worried face, and when she saw Li Shuoxi, she asked, "Little Miss, can I go in?" Li Shuoxi turned sideways and said, "Yes! Yan's mother, do you have anything to do with me at this time?"

Mother Yan sat in front of Li Shuoxi, struggled for a long time and said, "Little Miss, I know that there are some things that I say that are inappropriate, and I may also make Miss angry, but I hope Miss can think about what I said." ”

Li Shuoxi stretched out his hand and held Yan's mother's hand, wanting to give the old woman in front of her who was trembling slightly because of excessive nervousness, in her own eyes, Yan's mother has always been a cautious and simple person, but now she sees another strange light in her eyes, like nervousness and excitement, but it arouses her curiosity.

Mother Yan held her hand as if she wanted to add some credibility to her words and said, "Little Miss, I know that what Lou Yue told your wife is unbearable, but Mother Yan can guarantee that Mrs. is definitely not that kind of person." Moreover, and I suspect that the death of the original lady was also related to Lou Yue. ”

Seeing that Li Shuoxi didn't react too drastically to her words, Yan's mother was a little relieved, and she knew that her little lady was not as sluggish as she seemed to be. Li Shuoxi wanted to pull out the hand that Yan's mother was holding, but she couldn't pull it out because she had too much strength.

Li Shuoxi could only give up and ask: "How do you know these things, do you have any evidence?" As soon as Li Shuoxi's words came out, the blood on Yan's mother's face disappeared at once, and an old man who had gone through all the vicissitudes of life was now like a child who had done something wrong, just sitting there, his hand was withdrawn and put in his arms, and his head was lowered and the whole person shrunk into a ball.

Li Shuoxi looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly felt that what he had just said was too heavy.

He said softly, "I don't mean anything else, I just want to make sure." Mother Yan raised her head and said, "Little Miss, I just feel that I am too useless, it has been so long, if it wasn't for Miss Xiao's return, I wouldn't even be able to enter this house." I almost forgot the purpose of this visit, little miss, I know that Lou Yue is going to take you out, you must not go! Lou Yue just uses you as a link to contact those powerful people, and besides, it is not difficult for Xiao Xiao to be so beautiful that she will not be coveted by those bad people. ”

Lou Yue's actions had already known that the person who came was not good, so Li Shuoxi didn't have much reaction, but some of Yan's mother's words made Li Shuoxi feel shocked, according to Yan's mother's meaning, she has been trying to find the truth of the year, so why didn't she see her at all in the previous life, and now it can be confirmed that in this life, Yan's mother came to expose her true purpose to herself because she realized that there was harm, if Yan's mother is her father's person, it is absolutely impossible to spit out the things of the year, although she has no evidence, and Su Baoqin herself tested it at the beginning, then she is credible, if you say so, there will be only one end for Yan's mother in the previous life。

Yan Ma is one of the few people who have doubts about the things of the year, and has been trying to find the truth of the year, Lou Yue's things back then were extremely clean and neat, even if he is now, he can't find the slightest loophole, just relying on Yan Ma alone will definitely not be able to find the truth of the facts, then Yan Ma is likely to be the same as this life because she found that she was in danger, but because the situation in the previous life was different, she was completely under the supervision of Lou Yue and Su Baoqin in the previous life, which caused Yan Ma to be solved by Lou Yue and them before she came into contact with herself.

Looking at the living person in front of her, Li Shuoxi felt as if the water and blood in her whole body had been drained, her throat was so dry that she couldn't even say a complete sentence, she turned her head dryly, as if she was looking for the water she urgently needed now, but in fact, she was avoiding Yan Ma's gaze, obviously her emotions had not fluctuated so obviously when she saw Su Baoqin and Qin Lie, but she was even more afraid when she saw this person who died in the previous life because of her ignorance and stupidity.

Mother Yan saw that Li Shuoxi's mood had become very weird, she thought that her words made her feel uncomfortable, and nervously explained: "Little Miss, are you okay?"

Li Shuoxi said in a hoarse voice: "It's okay to say Mom, I already know, but this matter is not for me to refuse now, but don't worry, I will be more careful." ”

Mother Yan didn't know why she felt that the current little lady was very afraid of her, but she believed in her little miss, and since she said that it was okay, then she was relieved. "Okay, little miss, you must be extra careful! I'll go first, Mother Yan is waiting for you to return safely. Li Shuoxi looked at Yan's mother and said, "You go back first!"

Yan's mother got up and was about to leave, but she heard Li Shuoxi suddenly stop herself, she turned her head to look at Li Shuoxi, and saw Li Shuoxi with her mouth tightly closed, her hands tightly held until her fingertips were pinched white, and then she spit out a sentence: "Yan's mother, are you cruel to me?" As soon as the words came out, Li Shuoxi felt that he was now like a piece of duckweed, fluttering and helpless.

Mother Yan was stunned for a moment when she heard Li Shuoxi's words, and suddenly laughed, Li Shuoxi looked at her kind and gentle smile, and her tense body relaxed a little. Mother Yan looked at Li Shuoxi and said, "Little Miss, I won't be cruel to you, whether it is now or in the future." ”

"Then what if you might lose something very important because of me in the future?" Li Shuoxi asked anxiously.

"I won't hurt you, not all the time. Li Shuoxi knew that Yan's mother knew what she was talking about, so she still asked: "Is it worth it?" Yan's mother said neatly: "It's worth it." ”

At this moment, Li Shuoxi knew that there was an unswerving choice in this world, just because you were that person.

Qin Mufeng sat in the study, looking at the plan handed over, and somehow thought of Li Shuoxi's plain white little face, at this time, there was a knock on the door, Qin Mufeng said, "Come in." Then he saw Jashua push open the door and walk in.

Qin Mufeng asked, "Is there something wrong?" "Mr. Qin, I'm here to tell you about the Lin family's dinner." He had already put this matter away, he knew that Li Shuoxi was also going tonight, but he and Li Shuoxi had an agreement not to show their relationship in front of outsiders, and Yaxiu also knew about this matter, so he shouldn't mention it again.

Yaxiu looked at him and said with a heavy face: "Mr. Qin, as far as the latest news I got, Mr. Ling is also going." ”

After Yaxiu finished speaking, Qin Mufeng's eyes widened, and he confirmed, "Are you sure." "Well, and according to reliable sources, Mr. Ling should have suddenly come over with Mr. Su. "Su Baoqin's father. "Hmm. ”

Qin Mufeng immediately called Li Shuoxi, but he didn't expect that Su Baoqin could do things so far now, Lingde Lingtongxun's father, and now the head of the Ling family is vigorous and decisive, and manages the current Ling family in an orderly manner. But this person has a hobby that is very lustful, if it is ordinary people like their status, there are many people who flock to it, but this spiritual virtue has its own special habits, likes young people, and often likes to torture people in that kind of thing, and there are not a few people who have been planted in his hands over the years. If he saw Li Shuoxi, he didn't know what would happen? Thinking of this and because Li Shuoxi didn't answer the phone, Qin Mufeng's heart became even more anxious.

He hung up the phone and said to Yaxiu, "Hurry up and help me prepare the car, I'm going to find Li Shuoxi." After hearing that Yaxiu didn't move, he stood there and said, "It's too late for Mr. Qin, and now Mr. Ling should have seen Li Shuoxi at this time." ”

Qin Mufeng suddenly understood, and when he walked to him, his eyes were full of red, and he said angrily: "You already knew, why did you say it now." ”

Yaxiu lowered his head, put his hands on the sides of his pants and said, "Mr. Ling's guilt is not a good thing for Li Shuoxi. And Miss Li is so smart, she will definitely save her interests to the greatest extent. Qin Mufeng naturally understood that if Lingde really did something to Li Shuoxi, then Li Shuoxi would be equivalent to an extra layer of special protection, and it would be a good thing for himself, maybe this would not be a bad thing for Li Shuoxi! Thinking of this, Qin Mufeng's expression suddenly dimmed, and he sat down in his place, waved at Yaxiu, and motioned for him to go down.

In fact, in addition to Qin Mufeng, there is another person who also thinks so, Lou Yue looked at Li Shuoxi who was resting against the car window after the dinner, Li Shuoxi really inherited all the advantages of his and Li Zi's appearance, the people in the car slept very soundly, their faces were calm, their long eyelashes like crows cast a shallow shadow on their faces, the bridge of their noses was high, their complexions were fair, and he was also fiercely amazed when he saw Li Shuoxi for the first time, and after being amazed, he made up his mind to give full play to Li Shuoxi's maximum utilization limit, so he didn't think about letting Li Shuoxi out early at first, he had been waiting for an opportunity, and he thought of Lingde's rewards and promises to himself today, I secretly rejoiced in my own wisdom, but people's hearts are always insufficient, he always felt that Lingde had not given him the limit, so Lingde's request was fooled by him, and he wanted to see how much benefit his daughter could bring to himself.

After Li Shuoxi returned to the room, he saw Yan's mother guarding outside his room, saw that he was back, rushed to himself and looked himself up and down, and was relieved to see that he had nothing to do and said, "Little Miss, someone has been waiting for you all night!" Li Shuoxi looked at her and signaled to him that there was someone in the room, and he also knew who it was, so he smiled and said, "Then you can take me to meet the guests quickly! Don't let people wait in a hurry." ”

Yan's mother followed Li Shuoxi in, and as soon as Li Shuoxi entered, she saw Yu Miao's brows tightly locked, and when she walked in, she even saw a trace of cold sweat on her forehead. The moment he heard the sound of the door opening, he immediately looked out of the door, and when he saw Li Shuoxi coming back, his eyes lit up and said, "Miss Li, are you okay?"

Li Shuoxi walked up to her and sat down and said, "Cousin Yu's words are a bit funny, what can happen if I go to the banquet, but why hasn't Cousin Yu rested so late." ”

Yu Miao saw that Li Shuoxi still didn't care like this, and she couldn't tell if she was really stupid or if she already had a countermeasure, as if she had kicked a little rabbit in her heart, she still wanted to ask. I heard Li Shuoxi say neither hot nor cold: "Cousin Yu, don't be too hasty in everything, if you guess, it's better to take a good look." ”

When Yu Miao heard Li Shuoxi's words, her eyes hit the bottom of Li Shuoxi's eyes, this look was something she had never seen before, cold and empty, not like what a living person should be, which made people subconsciously shudder. What I wanted to say just now, I swallowed it again, got up and left.

When the others left, Li Shuoxi's expression returned to the same as usual, and Mother Yan said: "This person is not a good thing, I just want to use the ability of the little lady." ”

After listening to Yan's mother's words, Li Shuoxi raised a mocking smile on his lips and said, "Aren't these people like this? Okay, Yan's mother, I'm tired and want to sleep today, so you should go to bed early! From tomorrow, we will have something to do." ”
