Chapter 72: Three Parties Gather
Li Qingxi took a glance at the time. The moonlight tonight was very alluring, and the air was especially fresh.
As she alighted from the car, the cool night breeze made her feel refreshed.
She leaned against her car and waited quietly for something.
Looking up at the sky, Li Qingxi’s eyes twinkled, reflecting the night sky.
When Lin Feng wasn’t around, she had thought about many things.
They were all plans for the future.
Just then, a familiar car slowly drove over from afar.
Li Qingxi turned around and allowed the light from afar to shine on her face.
“Miss, the Yuwen family’s car is entering.”
At this moment, her subordinate’s voice came through the walkie-talkie.
Upon hearing that, Li Qingxi pointed the walkie-talkie at herself and said, “No need to stop it. They’re here on my invitation.”
“Roger that.”
After receiving Li Qingxi’s orders, the Li family members who were secretly watching did not appear to stop them.
This operation was no small matter. Everyone who participated in the operation felt this.
And at this critical moment, the appearance of a third party undoubtedly caused the nerves of everyone on the Li family’s side to tense up.
Even though they had some doubts, they heaved a sigh of relief after receiving Li Qingxi’s approval.
Li Qingxi turned around and continued staring at the sky.
She quietly admired the night sky as she waited for the Yuwen family’s car to arrive.
“What an impressive lineup.”
Yuwen Yunyan got out of the car and pushed away her secretary. She slowly came to Li Qingxi’s side in a wheelchair alone.
Yuwen Yunyan surveyed her surroundings. Although she couldn’t see the hidden personnel of the Li family, she was still able to spot many problems in the details.
She looked in the direction of the Gao residence thoughtfully and then looked at Li Qingxi with interest.
Presently, Li Qingxi did not have any expression on her face.
Yuwen Yunyan did not express any dissatisfaction towards Li Qingxi.
She looked at her profile and smiled like a good friend.
“Is your Li family trying to overturn the heavens?”
Upon hearing Yuwen Yunyan’s words, Li Qingxi’s eyes sparkled as she looked at the starry sky. A myriad of thoughts crowded her mind.
She did not respond immediately. Yuwen Yunyan was not anxious either. She continued to smile.
She did not feel any dissatisfaction because she had a feeling that this matter was no small matter.
It was worth the wait.
The evening breeze was very cool and comfortable for a normal person like Li Qingxi. However, it was rather awful for Yuwen Yunyan.
Her body was too weak. If she did not take good care, she would easily catch a cold.
Yuwen Yunyan adjusted the blanket on her legs and maintained her smile.
She was waiting, because the initiative was not in her hands.
Even her life and death right now were not in her hands.
But she didn’t mind, because while she waited, she’d pretty much anticipated what was coming.
She was even mentally prepared for many things.
At most, she would die.
But if it was really as she had expected, then things would be much more interesting.
Right then, Li Qingxi finally spoke.
“I originally wanted to exclude you, but after thinking about it, a triangle is sturdier.”
When she heard this, Yuwen Yunyan immediately thought of many things and understood what the Li family wanted to do.
She looked at Li Qingxi and asked in puzzlement, “Can you explain it better?”
This question seemed to be asking what was going on, but in reality, she was asking her why she was called here.
“The cake is too big. I’ll be too sick if I eat it alone.”
Obviously, Li Qingxi had figured out what Yuwen Yunyan was asking.
This could be considered a test of tacit understanding between the two of them. Li Qingxi’s silence was a test for Yuwen Yunyan.
And just now, it was Yuwen Yunyan’s test for Li Qingxi.
“I got it.”
After both parties passed their tests, Yuwen Yunyan nodded and expressed her acknowledgment for Li Qingxi.
She then skipped this topic and did not continue the discussion.
After all, the initiative was not in her hands.
“I’m very curious. Who will you invite from the Yuan family?”
“Someone who’s the complete opposite of you.”
Yuwen Yunyan’s smile disappeared when she heard that.
She immediately knew who Li Qingxi was referring to. Without thinking, she called out her name.
“Yuan Qingmeng.”
“What is it?”
As Yuwen Yunyan said this name, a white-haired girl holding a spear walked out from the shadows.
Her cold gaze landed on Yuwen Yunyan. Yuan Qingmeng waited for her response.
Yuwen Yunyan was a little envious of Yuan Qingmeng, who had come alone. However, she did not express these emotions. Instead, she said warmly,
“What a wonderful encounter. Miss Yuan, it seems that the head of the Li family wants to treat you to some cake.”
“I’m not interested.” Yuan Qingmeng answered directly without even thinking.
“No, you will be interested.”
Yuan Qingmeng looked at the confident Li Qingxi and felt a little confused.
She did not know where her confidence came from.
The two of them stared at each other for a while. Just as Yuan Qingmeng was about to leave,
Li Qingxi’s walkie-talkie suddenly sounded, followed by a slightly distorted voice.
“It’s over. I’ll leave the rest to you.”
When this voice was heard, the three of them reacted differently.
Yuwen Yunyan was curious.?Who exactly is this person who dares to speak like this to Li Qingxi?
Yuan Qingmeng, on the other hand, was surprised. Even though the voice was a little distorted through the walkie-talkie, she could still recognize the person.
Apart from the voice, the tone and Li Qingxi’s attitude made Yuan Qingmeng feel very familiar.
There is no mistake. It is him.
But why is he here?
Yuan Qingmeng shifted her gaze to Li Qingxi. Thinking about the rumors between Lin Feng and Li Qingxi, she gave up on the idea of leaving.
She stood still with her head bowed and waited for the further developments.
Although she had many questions, Yuan Qingmeng knew that Li Qingxi would answer them all.
Yuwen Yunyan noticed Yuan Qingmeng’s change in attitude. She was deep in thought.
Yuan Qingmeng was originally about to leave. Both she and Li Qingxi could tell that.
Because of this, Yuwen Yunyan had planned to make fun of Li Qingxi and repay her for gloating over her misfortune at the sports field.
However, it seemed that things weren’t as she had imagined.
After connecting the dots, Yuwen Yunyan immediately thought of the crux of the matter.
The owner of the voice from the walkie-talkie.
It sounded like a man.
This was an interesting development. A man could actually speak to Li Qingxi in that tone and even make Yuan Qingmeng change her mind.
Isn’t the answer obvious?
At this thought, Yuwen Yunyan’s eyes were filled with anticipation. The smile on her face grew even brighter.
