Evening Rose - C283
Ah Feng’s words made me feel even more sad than if he had said that he didn’t know. That was why I lost all color in my face and bit my lower lip to hide my feelings. I just looked at him indifferently and asked, “Why did you do this?”
Ah Feng didn’t reply. His eyes were staring straight at me, making my scalp tingle. At the same time, I lost the will to continue asking.
And now that things have progressed to this point, the things that Li Tianyi wanted us to confirm have been confirmed, so I no longer have any interest in staying here anymore. I dejectedly lowered my eyes and released the hand that was tightly grabbing onto Li Tianyi’s sleeve.
When Li Tianyi saw me like this, a flash of pain flitted past his eyes before he gently patted my hand to comfort me.
However, what he said afterwards surprised me: “You go out and wait for me for a while, I still have some private matters to discuss with Director Feng.”
I had always been obedient to Li Tianyi’s words. In addition, my current state of mind wasn’t too good, so after replying to him, I left the villa without any hesitation.
As for what Li Yingyi wanted to say to Feng from the inside, I had no way of knowing. I just calmly walked to the door and waited for him to come out. Such a tranquil moment caused my originally restless heart to gradually calm down.
But not long after, I heard the sound of high heels not too far away. I immediately became alert and turned around to look at them.
When they looked at each other, I was not surprised, because the person who had arrived was Xu Anya, who had just met up with him not long ago …
I don’t understand what she’s doing at Feng’s house right now. Then what are you thinking of doing to me? The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt. I subconsciously wanted to run away, but at this moment, if Xu Anya met me, how could she let me off so easily?
Thus, before I could even run, Xu Anya quickly took a step forward and grabbed my arm with one hand. “A Yun, I really didn’t expect to meet you here. It seems that even the heavens do not want me to let you off!”
“What do you mean? Let me go! ”
Xu Anya’s words made me feel especially uneasy, so I subconsciously wanted to run, but Xu Anya had already decided not to let me go, so I only saw her sneer. “What do you mean? Naturally, I’ll let you have a taste of the price for offending me! ”
A hint of anger appeared on Xu Anya’s face, and then she dragged me down the mountain without saying a word. It was as if she wanted to kidnap me, I immediately panicked, I didn’t care too much, I turned around and shouted towards the direction of the villa: “Boss Li! “Save me!”
“Pah!”
The moment I said those words, Xu Anya’s slap was sent flying towards me. It made me feel dizzy, but at the same time, due to my instinctual wariness, I grabbed her arm and ferociously bit down.
How could Xu Anya have thought that I would make such a move. Her face instantly became furious, and after forcefully shaking me off, she directly used her foot to kick towards my stomach.
Due to her high heels, she kicked me right in the stomach. My face paled at the same time and I couldn’t help but retreat, weakly falling to the ground.
Seeing this, Xu Anya didn’t have the slightest bit of sympathy for me. She just coldly smiled, walked over to me, squatted down, and looked down at me condescendingly. She raised her hand to teach me a lesson, “Do you really think that A’Yi has taken a liking to you? “Let me tell you, everything was just your imagination. The reason why Ah Yi treats you so well is because …”
“Xu Anya, what are you doing!”
Halfway through Xu Anya’s words, I was interrupted by Li Tianyi’s voice. Following which, I saw Li Tianyi’s figure hurriedly walking towards me. He flung Xu Anya away without saying a word, and hugged me in his embrace.
This protective posture caused my heart to feel warm, momentarily forgetting what Xu Anya had just said.
“What is it? Yi, I’d like to ask you what you want to do! Have you forgotten what I’ve done for you before? Could it be that the friendship between the Xu Family and the Li Family for more than a decade has been lost by you just like that!? ”
I frowned even more when I heard this. In fact, even though Li Tianyi told me that Xu Anya’s purpose in getting close to him was impure, I still haven’t figured out what happened between them.
“Our Li Family’s relationship with your Xu Family has long since ended five years ago.”
Perhaps it was because Xu Anya’s current emotions were too agitated, the usually calm and collected Li Tianyi couldn’t help but tightly furrow his brows at this moment. He also didn’t reprimand Xu Anya as indifferently as he did at the start, and calmly said these words.
Li Tianyi didn’t seem to have any intentions of pursuing Xu Anya. He picked me up and left without looking back.
After we got in the car, I recalled the scene from earlier. The burning pain on my face reminded me of what Xu Anya had done to me.
Furthermore, now that things have progressed to this point, I realized that I no longer had any way out. I simply looked at Li Yingyi and became serious, “Chief Li, I think you should give me an explanation now.”
At this moment, upon hearing my words, the hand gripping the steering wheel lightly paused for a moment. With a chuckle, Li Tianyi didn’t walk in circles with me. “What do you want to ask? Just directly ask.”
“Alright, then why did you say that Miss Xu’s motive for coming close to you from the very beginning was impure?” “Isn’t the relationship between your two families a family friendship?”
And from what I know, Li Tianyi and Xu Anya seem to be childhood sweethearts. How did their relationship come to this?
“Due to the fact that the Xu Family had caused the death of a person back then, I think I need to make the Xu Family pay a certain price. Therefore, I secretly gathered all the evidence of corruption that Mr Xu had committed behind his back.
Li Tianyi’s words made me sigh. However, after thinking carefully about Xu Anya’s daily actions towards him, I still couldn’t help but grumble, “But no matter how I look at it, Miss Xu likes you, right, Boss Li?”
The way I said this, I’m afraid I didn’t even realize how stuffy it was.
Because I was focused on driving, Li Tianyi didn’t pay much attention to the expression on my face. He coldly smiled and said, “So what?” If what I did was wrong and I continue to get away with it, then is there still any law in this world? ”
I didn’t know what kind of thing would cause someone like Li Tianyi to say such words. But I knew in my heart that if there were things that I didn’t dare to ask, then I wouldn’t ask. Thus, after being silent for a while, I became silent.
