Chapter 47 (1/2)

“I shouldn’t have called Tao!”

After her phone conversation with Tao, she had been worried. She kept calling her but Qian Tao’s phone had been switched off. Now that her phone had been switched on again, she could not get through to her.

Su Ye was worried that her son’s words had hurt Qian Tao.

“Mother!” Xiao Yuanhang was just passing by when he saw them. He stopped to inform them, “Mother, Father, why are you here? Did you know that Churui fell down?”

“Churui fell?” Both of them were shocked.

“Yes, let’s go and have a look.”

Both of them were troubled. Churui was pregnant. What would happen if she fell?

Qian Chenhai turned around and saw Li Hengzhi’s frown. He quickly said, “Mr. Li, I’m…”

Li Hengzhi put down his wine glass and stood up. He interrupted, “I’m sorry Mr. Mayor, I’m afraid I’m unable to stay at your daughter’s wedding any longer. I have something to do, I’ll take my leave first.”

His presence had shown his respect so Qian Chenhai, who was unable to attend to him, apologized instead. “I should be the one apologizing. I’m sorry, Mr. Li, I’ll treat you next time as a gesture of apology.”

At that moment, Xiao Yuanhang’s eyes met Li Hengzhi’s.

The cheque which he had given Qian Tao appeared in Xiao Yuanhang’s mind. It was because of his willingness to lend them money that the Xiao family could overcome their crisis. Hence, Xiao Yuanhang softened his gaze and started talking, “Mr. Li…”

He suddenly stopped talking as Li Hengzhi’s eyes shifted just seconds after meeting his, as if his existence wasn’t important. He started to emit a cold aura, making it more difficult to approach than just now.

Xiao Yuanhang’s expression froze, but Li Hengzhi did not care, or should it be said that he did not notice, and was not concerned about his expression and reactions. With one hand in his trouser pocket, he turned coldly and left the noisy place.

Xiao Yuanhang narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Hengzhi as he walked away.

What did this mean?

Not worth spending time here?
