Chapter 141
141 Chapter 140, Do Me A Favor
“Yuanyuan and Zixuan have to remember that although raw eggplants are sweet, you can’t eat too much. If you eat too much, you’ll get poisoned!” Zhang Kun looked at Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Zixuan and instructed.
The other two nodded their heads in succession.
This afternoon could be considered soul-stirring.
At night, they slept just like last night.
She didn’t sleep much last night, and she had been tense all day. Liu Guihua quickly fell asleep, even snoring.
Li Lei, on the other hand, was very clear-headed when he heard Liu Guihua’s snoring.
He had been busy during the day and had no time to think about Liang Yufang’s matters. Now that he had finally calmed down, he began to carefully think about what had happened in the morning.
He kept feeling that he had missed something, and his heart was always a little uneasy.
In the morning, he took some things to Liang Yufang’s house. When he knocked on the door, he met his neighbor, who seemed to have come out specifically to watch the show…
Thinking of the neighbor’s gaze, Li Lei’s heart stopped.
Later, Liang Yuqiang came out to open the door, and the first thing he said when he saw him was, ‘it’s you?’
It’s you?
Li Lei had been mulling over these words in his heart!
He suddenly felt uneasy!
He turned his body in frustration!
“What’s wrong? What are you thinking about?” Li Xu suddenly asked.
Li Lei was stunned for a moment and asked in a low voice, “You haven’t slept either?”
Before Li Xu could say anything, she heard a small voice say, “Eldest Uncle, I haven’t slept either!”
Li Lei laughed, “Why aren’t you sleeping?”
Ji Yuanyuan curled up in Li Xu’s embrace and sighed, “I’ve slept a lot during the day, I’m not sleepy yet!”
Li Xu reached out and patted her back gently, “Close your eyes even if you’re not sleepy!”
Ji Yuanyuan obediently closed her eyes.
“Are you thinking about Yufang?” Li Xu asked softly when she saw Ji Yuanyuan close her eyes.
Ji Yuanyuan’s ears p.r.i.c.ked up when she heard Liang Yufang’s name.
Li Lei was silent for a few seconds. When he saw that Liu Guihua’s breathing was even and there were no signs of her waking up, he replied, “Sis, my heart is in a mess.”
Li Xu raised her hand and gently covered Ji Yuanyuan’s ears, “Didn’t the meeting go well today? Didn’t you say it was fine?”
Ji Yuanyuan did not move. Although her ears were covered, she could still hear them!
“It’s been three years since we last met. I thought that when the two of us met, it would be special…” Li Lei thought for a moment but could not find a suitable adjective.
Li Xu understood what he meant, “When the two of you met, were you very calm?”
“Yes, my heart was very calm. She too… and…”
Li Xu did not speak. She waited for Li Lei to figure out how to speak.
After a long while, until Ji Yuanyuan was a little sleepy, Li Lei finally spoke.
“When I went to her house, one of her neighbors came out. The way she looked at me gave me gooseb.u.mps. Furthermore, her younger brother came out to open the door. When he saw that it was me, he said, ‘it’s you!"”
After pausing for a moment, li lei asked softly, “Sis, under what circ.u.mstances would you ask that?”
He had a nagging feeling that there was something wrong with this sentence, but he could not find anything wrong with it.
Li Xu Thought for a while and felt that Li Lei was thinking too much.
“It’s you? Isn’t this a very normal question?”
“No, his tone…” Li Lei was a little impatient.
Ji Yuanyuan felt a little uncomfortable listening to the conversation between the siblings. They chatted for a long time, but they did not get to the point.
She reached out and removed Li Xu’s hand from her ear. She said crisply, “He thought it was someone else, but it turned out to be you. That’s why he said with a sigh, ‘it’s you!"”
Ji Yuanyuan’s words enlightened Li Lei!
That’s right, Liang Yuqiang’s tone was exactly what he meant!
After thinking this through, he suddenly sat up excitedly from the heated brick bed.
Since that was the case, who did Liang Yuqiang think it was?
Combined with the neighbor’s gaze, Li Lei’s breathing gradually became rapid.
After saying that, Ji Yuanyuan grabbed Li Xu’s hand again and placed it on her ear. When Li Xu looked over, she even took the opportunity to smile at Li Xu in a flattering manner.
Just as Li Xu was about to speak to her, she heard Li Lei’s rapid breathing.
She quickly turned around and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Li Lei did not say anything. He only clenched his fists gradually.
After a long while, he slowly laid down. His voice was a little hoa.r.s.e, “Nothing!”
Li Xu wanted to ask again, but Ji Yuanyuan pulled her hand, indicating that she was sleepy and wanted to sleep.
Only then did Li Xu say nothing. She reached out her hand and patted Ji Yuanyuan’s back rhythmically.
Ji Yuanyuan knew that Li Lei needed to calm down now. There were some things that he needed to think about himself.
…
Ji Yuanyuan had a dream. In the dream, she was still thirty-one years old. She was still living in a luxurious villa, and she had to go to work every day.
That day, Shen Lingxue smiled and gave her a gla.s.s of wine.
She drank it without any preparation. When she woke up, she was already in the pig pen!
Her feet were tied up by iron chains that were as thick as fingers. Her breathing was filled with a disgusting stench…
Shen Lingxue, Zhao Tianhua, and that disgusting man were all smiling at her. That kind of smile sent chills down her spine.
Ji Yuanyuan suddenly woke up and sat up from the heated brick bed. She panted heavily in shock.
Outside the window, the moon hung high in the sky. Beside her was Li Xu!
Ji Yuanyuan’s heart suddenly calmed down.
She did not have to be afraid anymore. She was not alone anymore.
Shen Lingxue, Zhao Tianhua, and that man whose name she did not even know…
One day, she would definitely make them pay the price they deserved!
…
When Ji Yuanyuan woke up the next day, breakfast was already prepared.
The whole family was eating breakfast together. Li Lei’s under eyes were black. He looked at Zhang Kun and wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
Zhang Kun’s attention was on the children, so he did not see Li Lei.
After breakfast, Li Lei hesitated for a long time before he came in front of Zhang Kun, “Brother-in-law, I want you to do me a favor!”
Zhang Kun looked up in surprise, “What favor? Just say it.”
Li Lei said in a low voice, “I want you to go to Liang Yufang’s neighbor’s house on my behalf and ask her something.”
The other people who were working at first all looked over in surprise when they heard Li Lei’s words.
Zhang Kun subconsciously looked at Li Xu. Seeing that Li Xu’s expression was calm as if she already knew, he asked, “What is it?”
“Go and ask her about Liang Yufang and if there are people who often go to her house to look for her. Don’t mention me, they don’t even know you.” As he spoke, Li Lei took out 100 Yuan from his pocket and stuffed it into Zhang Kun’s hand, “Give them some money properly. They should tell the truth.”
100 Yuan was not a small amount. For the sake of money, they would tell the truth.
Liu Guihua heard that Li Lei was going to spend 100 Yuan to inquire about something and immediately became anxious, “So be it, it’s just asking, why are you giving money?”
