Chapter 37 City Express
Lin Xu is as beautiful as the autumn moon, and she often meets men outside to strike up a conversation. She stood in Xie's lobby for a while, and a man came over to express concern.
"Miss, I see you have been here for a few minutes. Did you encounter any difficulties?"
"No, I will stay here for a while and then leave." Lin Xu said .
"How about sitting at the coffee shop opposite? How about I buy you a cup of coffee?" the man said.
"Ah." Lin Xu was embarrassed, "I want to go too, but I have to go to school to pick up my children later."
When the man heard this, he immediately understood, "Since you have something to do, Then I won’t disturb you anymore.”
After that, he left with a look of regret.
This beauty looks quite young. I didn’t expect to get married and have children so early.
The sound here was not loud, but the handsome man at the door really heard it.
"Mr. Xie, is there a problem?" Seeing the man standing still, the assistant beside him asked nervously.
Xie Changyan withdrew his gaze and said, "It's okay."
He continued to walk inside, and one second before taking the elevator, he glanced at Lin Xu again from the corner of his eye.
The inexplicable strangeness in his chest disappeared, as if it was just his illusion, and then he entered the elevator with a calm expression.
——
When Lin Xu returned to the villa in the afternoon, the housekeeper excitedly greeted him and asked, "Miss Lin, have you found the person who leaked the information?"
Wen Li had no class today. If it had been a few days ago, she would have been there long ago. Went out to find Xiao Yu. But thinking about Lin Xu's purpose of going to Xie's today, he had been frightened all morning, and had no intention of going out for fun.
Hearing the housekeeper's question, she suddenly became nervous and clenched her hands.
"When I went there, my friend was busy and hadn't found it yet." Lin Xu sighed regretfully.
The housekeeper was also regretful, "That's it."
"But it's okay. My friend told me that he will send me the person's information after he is done with his work, which should be in an hour or two." Lin Xu said.
The boulder on Wen Li's chest fell slowly, and the next second it was lifted into the air again, as if a hanging dagger would fall down at any time and pierce her heart.
"At that time, he should courier the information to the villa in the same city. If you see someone delivering the courier later, remember to receive it." Lin Xu said to the housekeeper, "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back first. The housekeeper naturally agreed and said very professionally: "Miss Lin, don't worry, I will deliver it to you as soon as possible after receiving the express delivery."
Lin Xubian. Nodding, he yawned and walked upstairs.
Passing by Wen Li and seeing her pale face, Lin Xu's surprise was exaggerated and he asked with concern: "Your face looks so ugly. What happened?"
"I, I... I just didn't sleep well last night." Wen Li was so nervous that her heartbeat was racing and she tried to control her emotions to calm down.
"That's it, let's go upstairs to catch up on some sleep?"
"I...I'm not sleepy yet, so I won't go up to sleep." Wen Li smiled reluctantly and declined. accepted her proposal.
She wanted to wait for the courier to come over and see if there was any way to exchange the information.
Lin Xu didn't force her, he smiled at her and went upstairs.
I don’t know if it was because of a guilty conscience, but Wen Li always felt that the smile on her face had a special meaning, which made her feel uncomfortable.
For a while, only Wen Li and the housekeeper were left in the living room.
In the hot summer, the air conditioner in the villa is always turned on to control the temperature in the house within a comfortable and cool range.
But even so, Wenli still had thick sweat on her forehead.
Whenever there was a movement at the door, she sweated a little more, fearing that the courier was coming. "Ms. Wen, are you feeling unwell?" the housekeeper asked with concern when he saw her acting strangely.
"I...maybe." Wen Li was about to deny it when something suddenly occurred to her and her voice changed, "I didn't eat much today and my stomach hurts. Can you please go to the kitchen to make some food?" Would you like to order something to eat?”
Sister-in-law Zhang went out to buy groceries. Wen Li wanted to eat, so the housekeeper had to go into the kitchen.
"But...Ms. Lin said that the courier will come later, and I have to pick up the courier." The housekeeper looked hesitant.
"If the courier comes, I can just call you. My stomach hurts so much, please." Wen Li looked at him with wet eyes, and there was painful cold sweat on his forehead, which made people feel heartbroken.
The housekeeper softened his heart and agreed.
Wen Li was the only one left in the living room, and she wondered about the possibility of hiding the information first, and then said that the courier hadn't delivered it yet.
As time passed by, Wen Li became more and more impatient, fearing that the courier would be slower than the housekeeper in cooking.
Finally, the iron gate outside the villa rang.
The harsh and scratchy sound of rust sounded like the sound of nature to Wen Li's ears. She quickly stood up and walked to the entrance, hoping to get the information as soon as possible.
However, before she could open the door, the entrance door opened first.
After seeing the person coming in, she was startled for a moment.
A hint of surprise flashed across Ji Tingyang's face, and he hesitated: "Are you waiting for me?"
"Yes." Wen Li suppressed the panic on her face and raised a smile, " You have been very busy these days, so I asked the housekeeper to make chicken soup to help you recuperate.”
Unexpectedly, she would take the initiative to care about him. Ji Tingyang looked stunned, with a hint of happiness.
He raised his lips and wanted to say something more, when the phone in his pocket rang.
It’s those annoying phone calls from shareholders again.
Ji Tingyang frowned, told Wen Li to answer the phone first, and then walked to the backyard.
Wen Li did not expect that Ji Tingyang would suddenly come back early today, and was so frightened that he was at a loss.
But fortunately, he went to the backyard to answer the phone, and she was left alone in the living room again.
Maybe she was afraid that something would happen. Before she could relax, the housekeeper came out of the kitchen with the food.
"Miss Wen, the food is ready. Don't you have a stomachache? Come over and eat." The housekeeper shouted.
The housekeeper was so warm-hearted that after urging her several times, he almost came over to welcome her to the dining table.
"..." Wenli had no choice but to go over reluctantly.
Her mind was running so fast like never before, and she was constantly thinking of ways to get rid of the housekeeper again.
"Hello, citywide express delivery!" The doorbell rang.
Before Fa Zi could think of it, the express arrived like a reminder.
Looking at the butler's back walking toward the door, Wen Li's face turned horribly pale.
Within a moment, she saw the housekeeper coming back with an A4-sized document bag.
Instead of giving it to Lin Xu, he first went to the backyard and handed it to Ji Tingyang.
The housekeeper thought, if this matter is so important, wouldn't it be better to hand it over directly to Ji Tingyang? Why go to all the trouble and have to go through Lin Xu in the process.
After seeing Ji Tingyang take it, Wen Li stood up quickly, feeling panicked. When she came to her senses, she had already rushed towards the backyard.
