Chapter 471 Wife, Don't Eavesdrop
There seemed to be someone on the phone in the room.
The closer Cai Xiaotang got, the more she could hear faint voices coming from inside.
Is it Li Xiao?
She paused for a moment, only heard a few words, and then confirmed the identity of the person in the room.
Li Xiao didn't know what he was saying to the person on the other end of the phone, and his tone sounded a bit serious.
Cai Xiaotang couldn't hear clearly, but couldn't help being curious. She quickly held her breath and subconsciously moved closer to the door.
There was only a small crack left in the door.
She slightly moved her ear towards the crack of the door, and then heard Li Xiao say in a deep voice: "That batch of goods..."
His voice was not loud. Cai Xiaotang only heard the first four words, but the rest were somewhat unclear.
goods?
What cargo?
Cai Xiaotang looked a little confused and continued to listen.
But there was no sound of conversation in the room.
After a few more seconds, Li Xiao's voice sounded again: "Well, it's that time at the latest. Warn the other party that if it drags on..."
He seemed to be moving around the room, and his voice was vague.
Cai Xiaotang keenly captured some key words, and her expression was more subtle.
What on earth was he talking about?
It’s both goods and time…
Why do you think it sounds weird?
Cai Xiaotang stood by the door, unable to help but fall into deep thought, staring at a certain point in the air in a daze.
She had long suspected that Li Xiao was not just a black man who only knew how to fight and kill...
But just from the information I just heard, it seems like I can’t deduce anything...
What does this guy do?
Cai Xiaotang was so lost in thought that she didn't notice that the room where someone was talking just now had already quieted down.
The next second——
The study door was suddenly opened from inside!
Cai Xiaotang was startled by the sound of wind in her ears. Just as she was about to speak, her mouth was covered!
Immediately afterwards, someone grabbed his wrist and was forcefully dragged into the study!
There was a soft sound of "brush".
The study door was closed firmly without making any harsh noise.
"Uh-huh!"
Cai Xiaotang struggled hard, and then she realized that the lights in the study had been turned off at some point.
The familiar figure is covering his mouth, reflecting a faint moonlight.
Cai Xiaotang was a little angry, and just about to open her mouth and bite the hand covering her, she suddenly felt a piece of ice on her neck!
That is one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body.
Cai Xiaotang instantly broke into a cold sweat on her back.
Depend on!
Isn't it?
I didn’t hear anything just now!
Is this guy still planning to kill someone and silence him?
An unbelievable idea suddenly came into Cai Xiaotang's mind, but she didn't feel much fear, only a look of shock on her face.
"Ah……"
Seeing her dull look, Li Xiao couldn't help but let out a chuckle and finally let go of his hand.
With a click, the lights came back on.
"Li Xiao, you..."
Cai Xiaotang immediately felt unhappy and wanted to curse, but when she thought that Li Beijue and Jiang Baobao had already fallen asleep, she hurriedly lowered her voice and said angrily: "What are you doing! I came out to find the bathroom, it happened to be
I just saw the lights on here! I’m not here specifically to eavesdrop on your phone calls!”
"Did I say you were here to eavesdrop?" Li Xiao looked at the person in front of him who was "not asking for help" in a funny way, and moved his wrist.
Cai Xiaotang choked suddenly, and then she saw that what was pressed against her throat just now was just the wristband of his watch.
She touched her throat subconsciously, and her skin was still cold, feeling a little uneasy for no reason.
It turned out to be just a watch...
I thought he was carrying a weapon with him...
Cai Xiaotang cursed secretly, and then explained: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I just happened to come over. I didn't hear a word you said..."
Li Xiao raised his eyebrows immediately when he heard this: "It doesn't matter if you heard it, you don't understand it anyway."
"Tch...even if you want to say it, I'm still too lazy to listen." Cai Xiaotang replied unhappily. Thinking of what just happened, she still felt a little unhappy and said: "I just leaned over here. If I really heard
What, you didn’t just kill me..."
"How could I be willing to take your life?" Li Xiao was stunned for a moment, and replied half jokingly, half seriously. Then his expression suddenly turned serious: "I just did that just to tell you that curiosity can sometimes lead to
If you are in a strange environment and the person in the room is not me, you may actually be dead."
Cai Xiaotang curled her lips and said nothing.
Then he felt a hand gently rubbing his hair.
"Okay, let's go back to bed. If you're still up so late, could it be..."
As Li Xiao said this, he suddenly leaned into Cai Xiaotang's ear and said deliberately ambiguously: "You can't sleep without me around?"
"You think so beautifully! I can't sleep without you by my side! I'm going back to sleep! Goodbye!"
Cai Xiaotang was instantly furious and turned around to leave.
However, his peripheral vision suddenly and inadvertently swept across the table not far away.
Cai Xiaotang paused and her eyes suddenly focused on something on the table.
It seemed to be a small iron piece wearing a thin chain. From the edge, it seemed to have some carved pattern shape, which looked very delicate.
"What's wrong?"
Li Xiao saw her in a daze and asked casually.
"Nothing, I'm leaving."
Cai Xiaotang quickly withdrew her gaze and turned to leave.
She closed the door, but hesitantly glanced in the direction of the room again.
That little piece of iron...
Why does she feel like she has seen it somewhere?
Cai Xiaotang frowned, thought for a long time but didn't recall it, and simply turned around and went to the bathroom.
No matter what... it's probably just a necklace with a rather strange shape...
…
The next evening——
Several people left the manor together.
Cai Xiaotang said goodbye to Jiang Baobao and got into Li Xiao's car.
Jiang Baobao took Li Beijue's car and went directly back to the villa at the base.
After getting off the car, Li Beijue received a call from Assistant Chen and returned to the villa to handle the work.
Jiang Baobao turned around and returned to his side.
As soon as I walked into the entrance hall, I saw Shen Lingfeng standing in the living room with a computer.
Their eyes met, and there was a sudden silence in the air.
Jiang Baobao had not thought about how to face Shen Lingfeng in the past two days, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Shen Lingfeng did not expect that she would come back suddenly, and his footsteps stopped suddenly.
"Brother Shen, let's eat tonight..."
Xiao Ding led several team members out of the training room and stood still before he finished speaking.
Several people's eyes passed between Jiang Baobao and Shen Lingfeng, and they immediately turned around at the same time.
"Let's go back and order takeout!"
Several people said, slamming the door of the training room shut, pretending that they had never been there.
Jiang Baobao's head was suddenly covered with black lines.
These brats!
He was running too fast!
