Chapter 147 The Hidden Secret
Li Mian closed her mouth tightly, her eyes flashed with the excitement of eating melon, and she listened attentively to what was going on outside.
Neither Jiang's mother nor the housekeeper knew that there was a third person in the unused greenhouse.
After the two of them finished messing around, they started talking about business.
Jiang Mu: "The old man called that little bastard back again. It seems that he has made up his mind to take the bastard back and cultivate it."
Housekeeper: "Are you sure? Did he tell you anything?"
Jiang's mother: "He didn't tell me, and I found that during this time, he rarely told me about the company. Do you think he has discovered something?"
Thinking of this, Jiang's mother panicked.
He said anxiously: "We can't stop fooling around like today. If he finds out, we will all die."
The housekeeper said with relief: "No, these more than twenty He hasn’t noticed it for years. And we have been very careful.”
Jiang's mother: "But I'm scared. I thought it would be fine if we kicked that little bitch Qi Yue out of the Jiang family, but now she comes out to act like a monster again. When she saw us having an affair, I wasn't sure about Jiang Sheng." Do you know?"
Butler: "Do you think Jiang Sheng knows it now? We designed him to misunderstand Qi Yue, but we still got divorced. It was our biggest mistake to keep her alive at that time."
Jiang's mother: "No, I'm panicking."
Butler: "Okay, I'm here. And this time..."
The words stopped midway. When Li Mian was still wondering why the people outside didn't continue, a slight vibration sounded.
The housekeeper looked at the phone and then said: "The old man and the little bastard came out of the study. Let's leave here first."
Jiang's mother: "Okay."
Then there was a rustling. There was a rustling sound, and then the footsteps of the two people leaving were heard.
However, Li Mian did not go out immediately because she was afraid that the people outside would not go far.
It wasn't until she waited in the corner for a few minutes to make sure there was no sound that she cautiously came out from behind the cabinet.
"Toffee, you really made a great contribution this time!" Li Mian thought about what he heard just now, and then hurried to the living room with the cat in his arms.
At this time, Jiang Yufeng had returned to the living room. The moment he found out that Li Mian was not there, his heart trembled.
"Where is Li Mian?!" He turned around and asked the housekeeper who had just returned with a cold voice.
The housekeeper was stunned. He was not here just now. How could he know where the child had gone?
But when he thought about the child not being in the living room, the housekeeper felt a little uneasy.
It passed so quickly that he had no time to catch it.
Jiang Yufeng didn't know what the housekeeper was thinking. In his impression, the Jiang family was not a safe place.
So he was very afraid that something would happen to Li Mian.
"Brother Xiaofeng." Li Mian ran back with the kitten in his arms, not having time to wipe off the dust on his clothes.
"Where have you gone?" Jiang Yufeng came over quickly and looked her up and down.
Even the housekeeper walked over thoughtfully.
The moment Li Mian saw the housekeeper, a feeling of guilt flashed through his heart. Then he lowered his head and touched the cat in his arms and said, "Toffee ran out, I'll catch it."
< br>Jiang Yufeng looked at the toffee with mud on his paws and felt relieved.
“Let’s go home.”
Jiang Yufeng didn’t ask any more questions. After picking up the kitten, he took Li Mian and walked out.
The butler behind him frowned slightly when his eyes fell on the dust on Li Mian's clothes. After leaving Jiang's house, Li Mian did not ask Jiang Yufeng what he had said to Jiang's father. Instead, she lowered her head quietly, thinking about what she overheard.
Although eavesdropping is an unethical thing, she didn't mean it.
It can be heard from the conversation between Jiang's mother and the housekeeper that Qi Yue accidentally broke up their affair and was designed to leave because of a conflict with Jiang Sheng.
So if they found themselves at that time, I don’t know if these two people would do anything crazy.
Should I say it or not? Thinking about it now, Li Mian felt a little palpitated.
If the cat in my arms made any movement at that time, I would be discovered.
Jiang Yufeng also noticed that Li Mian's clothes were dirty. He picked up the wet tissue on the side and wiped it for her.
As he wiped it, he asked: "Where did the toffee go to make you covered in dust?"
Li Mian's thoughts were a little distracted, and he answered absentmindedly: "Just...just ran into the haystack."
"Huh?" Jiang Yufeng seemed to have noticed her distraction, his eyes flashed slightly, and he continued: "There are still haystacks in the Jiang family?"
"That's it...that's it..." Li Mian was hesitant. .
Seeing this, Jiang Yufeng was finally sure that Li Mian must be hiding something from him, and it was related to the Jiang family.
He pursed his lips and said in a more serious tone: "Mianmian, were you bullied in the Jiang family?"
Jiang Yufeng knew it was unlikely, but he only asked this, That way Li Mian wouldn't be suspicious.
Hearing this, Li Mian finally regained his composure, bit his lip, and hesitated: "Brother Xiaofeng, do you believe me?"
Jiang Yufeng secretly said: Sure enough, he knew something was wrong.
"Absolutely, brother has always believed in Mianmian."
Li Mian glanced at the housekeeper and driver sitting in front, then leaned into Jiang Yufeng's ear and whispered: " Brother, I’m grabbing toffee today I accidentally overheard something when I was there, but it’s hard to say now.”
Jiang Yufeng understood, glanced at the housekeeper and the driver, nodded, and said in a low voice: “Then we can talk secretly when we get home.”
"Okay."
The two children were sneaking around, and the person sitting in front couldn't hear clearly, so they didn't take it to heart.
After returning to Li's house, Li Mian gave the cat to the housekeeper, and then took Jiang Yufeng and ran upstairs to his room.
Jiang Yufeng didn't expect that Li Mian would take him to the room. When he entered a girl's bedroom for the first time, he felt helpless and didn't know where to look.
"Brother Xiaofeng, sit over here quickly, I'll tell you." Li Mian pulled him to sit on the small sofa in his bedroom.
At that time, the Jiang family.
After sending Jiang Yufeng and Li Mian away, the housekeeper always felt uneasy.
He thought about the ashes on Li Mian's body several times, his pupils suddenly shrank, then he turned around and walked quickly towards the flower room.
After the housekeeper arrived at the greenhouse, he glanced around sharply before turning his attention to the ground.
Sure enough, a string of cat footprints in the corner caught his attention.
The housekeeper knelt down, bent over and looked in along the cat's footprints.
Then he stood up and walked around to stand upright on the cabinet, and sure enough he saw a gap where a child could squeeze in.
Moreover, the dust on the ground is full of messy footprints.
Seeing this, the butler's face suddenly darkened, and his eyes staring at the footprints were terrifyingly sinister, with a faint hint of murderous intent.
