Chapter 1046 (1/2)

Li Qing left Qianshan Road apartment building. He wanted to call Lin Qiuqiu, but he looked at the time. It was already midnight.

”Qiuqiu should be asleep.” Li Qing murmured in a low voice. She habitually took out her mobile phone and looked. There was an unread text message sent by Lin Qiuqiu.

”I'll go to bed first. Pay attention to your safety.”

Such a simple sentence made Li Qing's heart filled with warmth.

Li Qing opened the door of the taxi and sat in the driver's seat. He sat there quietly, staring at the empty street in front of him for a moment.

What happened tonight is a nightmare for Yang Xixi, as well as for Li Qinglai. He was almost certain that the attack on Yang Xixi must have come from the Qi family. He also needs to re-examine whether his previous attitude towards his family is too tolerant?

Li Qing gradually realized that in the face of a poisonous snake that always endangers others' lives, it would be useless to just warn. He needs to take more drastic measures and take a more active position. For example, pull out the snake's fangs so that it has no ability to cause harm.

”But...” Li Qing frowned slightly and hesitated again. He had to admit that he had to pay a great price if he wanted to knock down the whole family with his own ability. Zhou Wenhao of the port inspection office is by no means an ideal partner.

Where's Xie Yuyan? Li Qing shook his head and directly denied this possibility. Regardless of whether the woman will help herself or not, Li Qing doesn't have the heart to pull her into the vortex of this struggle, just because she is waiting for birth recently.

Before Zhou Wenhao realized that there was a good situation, Li Qing vaguely saw the crisis. He had a premonition that the whole family would have a more fierce counterattack, and would cause substantial harm to his side.

A familiar mobile phone ring interrupted Li Qing's thoughts. He picked up the mobile phone in the co pilot's seat and glanced at it. He found that it was Yang Xixi's call.

Li Qing subconsciously leaned forward, looked at the roadside apartment building through the front window, and then picked up his mobile phone: ”what's the matter?”

Yang Xi's low sobs came from his ears, with extremely depressed fear and grievances in his voice.

”Are you okay?” Li Qing asked again.

”Sorry, I don't know who else to call...” Yang Xixi finally sobbed. ”When this happens, i... I...”

”It doesn't matter.” Li Qing tried to soften his tone. ”Are you okay?”

”Very good, I'm fine.” Yang Xixi was silent for a while. ”Have you gone home?”

Li Qing said, ”no, it's downstairs. I haven't left yet.”

”I... I'm a little scared...”

Li Qing reached out and rubbed his forehead: ”do you need me to go up with you?”

Yang Xi hesitated for a long time before he gave a low ”um”.

”Please.”

”It's all right. I'll be there in a minute.” Li Qing hung up the call, leaned slowly against the driver's seat and sighed gently.

He then opened the door, got off the car, went upstairs for the second time and came to Yang Xixi's house.

Li Qing raised a hand and gently knocked on the door.

Standing outside the door and waiting for a long time, the door finally opened. Yang Xixi lay on the floor at the door and looked up at Li Qing: ”I'm sorry it's so late...”

Li Qing caught a glimpse of Yang Xi's disheveled hair and lying at the door in a strange posture. He was immediately startled and his forehead was green and jumping: ”what are you doing?”

Yang Xixi blushed: ”I sprained my ankle, so... I had to climb over to open the door.”

”Oh, I was almost scared by you.” Li Qingchang was relieved. He leaned down and put his hands through Yang Xi's soft waist, picked her up, and then stepped on the door.

Put Yang Xixi on the sofa. Li Qing changed a pair of lovely slippers for girls in the shoe cabinet in front of the door. Taking advantage of this opportunity, his eyes looked carefully in the room.

This room has one room and one living room. The area is not large, but the decoration is exquisite. The house was clean, with plain wallpaper on the wall and solid wood floors on the ground. There was a faint fragrance unique to girls everywhere.

Yang Xixi sat on the sofa, stretched out his jade hand and combed his messy hair. He was embarrassed and said, ”is it too simple here?”

”Very good.” Li Qing turned her head and looked at Yang Xi Xi in surprise. ”How can you think so?”

Yang Xi Xi slightly pursed his small mouth: ”you are the owner of the Li family. You are used to living in luxury villas. You should have never seen such a small house.”

Li Qing put on his cartoon slippers and stretched out his hand in front of him. ”The house I used to live in was only so big, not as big as half of your living room.”

”How?” Yang Xi Xi blinked her beautiful eyes. ”Don't tease me.”

”It's true.” Li Qing said seriously. ”My residence in Yanjing a few years ago was five steps long and three steps wide. In such a narrow place, there should be a wardrobe and a bed. Can you imagine?”

Yang Xixi shook his head in disbelief: ”I believe many people live in such a place, but if it's you, I don't believe it at all.”

”You can't just see the bright surface,” Li Qing said with a grin. ”Most people in the world are much harder than you see.”
