C55 Widow (1/2)
I would turn off that mysterious Phone Number several times; however, I had no choice but to save my number and go to the side of the Xi Ming Lake to find Li Xinai's villa. The mysterious person on the phone gave me an address that could be found at the house number. Xi Ming Lake is the biggest scenic lake in our city, it would take at least three to four hours to walk around the lake.
The surrounding area was shaded by trees and trees. The road was filled with old people and couples walking on foot. Birds flew over the lake and boats paid for the tour, creating a dynamic yet quieter scene. To be able to purchase a villa beside such a precious Feng Shui place, the people from Ximing City were the richest.
Needless to say, the chairman of Li Group was different. Wasn't most people staying in hotels on business? Li Xinai's sportscar and the villa she lived in were truly treated differently.
I found the entrance of Li Xinai's villa according to the address. It was at the upper-right corner of the Western Ming Lake and on the left side was a stretch of green mountains. It was simply the most suitable place for the Ximing City to stay. The villas here were all very far away from each other, around thirty or so in total. The villas here were luxurious three-storey duplex buildings with over seventy percent of the floor glazing, maintaining a high level of sunshine and a view of the lake. It made the villas seem even more modern and full of design.
”Is anyone home?” I stood outside the iron gate and looked inside the walls of the house. The grass, the garage, the front door of the house. I clearly saw Li Xinai's car parked in the courtyard, but no matter how many times I shouted, no one paid attention to me.
Don't want to see me? I have to see Li Xinai today, she is my only hope and Small Bottle Cover Company's only hope right now. Thinking, I look around and see that no one is around, so I directly jumped in with my hands against the wall of the courtyard. I walked straight towards the main door of the villa. I saw a bell on the door and was about to reach for it when I heard a noise in my head.
”This matter can't be delayed any longer!” An uncle's voice came from the second floor of Li Xinai's villa, carrying a bit of anger.
”Uncle, I just feel that this isn't the time.” Li Xinai's voice followed closely behind the uncle's firm but somewhat helpless voice.
I was startled, Li Xinai seemed to have met with some trouble, I have to see what's going on. Li Xinai is not a easy woman to deal with, I have to know myself and my enemies, only then will I be able to win a hundred battles.
As I thought about it, I took a few steps back into the courtyard and looked up at the second floor of the villa. The sound seemed to be coming from the living room on the second floor, and there was a staircase under the air-conditioning. I climbed directly to the balcony on the second floor. Looking through the window on the balcony, he saw:
In the luxurious living room, Li Xinai sat on the sofa, frowning. Both of her hands were wrapped around her chest, and her gaze was fixated on the Surface TV that was not turned on, her face full of familiarity.
Sitting on the couch beside her left was an old man and a young man. Both of them were dressed in suits and looked like a father and son.
”Xin Ai, look, Ze Cheng has returned from America. Since the two of you have an engagement, you can marry him as soon as possible. As for this matter, I have already told you before Ze Cheng came back, the time is set to be at the end of this month. ” The old man looked at Li Xinai with a stern face, and pointed at the young man who was sitting beside him: ”Ze Cheng is the eldest son of your generation when we left home, and I am also your eldest uncle. Since the two of you are getting married, let alone this is your parents' last wish before death.”
Damn, forced marriage, this is a family ethics play that I coincidentally stumbled upon, but this is too much, isn't this old man Li Xinai's uncle? She is also Li Xinai's father's elder brother, and both of them have the same surname, how can she let Li Xinai marry her own cousin? Wasn't this incest?
”Uncle Liang Hu, I didn't say that I won't marry, but can we push this matter a little further? The wedding at the end of the month is too hasty and you should know the current situation of the company. Li Xinai shook her head, she did not say no and just wanted to push the time forward.
”Li Xinai, what exactly do you mean? You keep pushing and pushing about this matter, don't think that we don't know what you're thinking. ” At this time, Li Zecheng who was sitting on the sofa suddenly stood up, raised his hand and pointed at Li Xinai: ”At the beginning of next month, you will be the company's Shareholder's Congress, think carefully about it!”
Shareholder's Congress? I was stunned for a moment. My gaze landed on Li Xinai's face, and I could clearly see the trace of helplessness that was reflected in Li Xinai's eyes. Although I didn't know what they were talking about, I could feel the threat within Li Zecheng's words.
What was this? Li Xinai's eldest uncle forced Li Xinai to marry her own cousin?
”Hey, Ze Cheng, what are you talking about with your sister?” Li Lianghu raised his head and stared at his son, then turned to Li Xinai and said: ”Xin Ai, I'm sorry, Ze Cheng just likes you too much, so I'm worried, don't take it to heart.”
When I heard this, I couldn't help but laugh out loud. This old man really knows how to cover his weakness. He can even say such a reason? Would a smart girl like Li Xinai believe her?
Just when I thought that Li Xinai would mock me, Li Xinai actually went out of my expectations and only faintly smiled. She stood up and said: ”I'm going to the washroom.” He turned around and left the living room.
That shouldn't be right? With Li Xinai's IQ and aura, it shouldn't be like this, I also don't understand the situation, I can't figure it out even if she messes around, and maybe there's something wrong with it, I might as well go down and knock on the main door to discuss business with her.
