Perhaps unable to bear the attention of the crowd, Lu Wantang tugged at Shen Zhou's clothes, and the two of them whispered something. Afterward, Shen Zhou gave Li Xi a sinister look and left with Lu Wantang.

Li Xi raised the corner of her mouth and snorted, "What the hell."

Should we say it's the power of the plot, or is there something wrong with Lu Wantang and Shen Zhou's brains? In Li Xi's opinion, these two people's behavior is just immersed in the love script they have framed, with a deep and abusive relationship, and everyone is the villain who wants to break them up.

hehe.

Logically, given the power of the plot, Li Xi, as cannon fodder in the original story, should have been somewhat intimidated by them. But seeing their seemingly unintelligent scenes, Li Xi felt that the plot only preserved their "sadistic love" and "silly sweet" story, leaving out their intelligence. In other words, in the original story, these two were simply sweet and brainless, with no intelligence at all.

Therefore, Li Xi wasn't afraid at all. Besides, wasn't Luo Jingxuan still there? He was the ultimate villain in the original story. If it weren't for his useless wife, he would have killed Shen Zhou in a matter of seconds. She wasn't useless now, and there was no way she could hold him back. In the past few months, Luo Jingxuan had also swallowed up some of the assets of the Zhao and Hua families. His strength was even greater than in the original story. Wouldn't it be a matter of seconds to kill Shen Zhou?

hehe.

After Shen Zhou and Lu Wantang left, Li Xi and Jing Chu resumed their pleasant shopping time. Although Jing Chu was curious about what had happened after she left, Li Xi dismissed her curiosity with a few words. It's best not to argue in front of children; it sets a bad example.

Cough cough.

After buying new clothes, Li Xi had some free time. She was almost done with the New Year's shopping. Anything she hadn't already bought was Uncle Wu's responsibility, so she just had to take a look at the finished products. There weren't any new topics for the "rich family clichés" discussion, so there was no rush.

With nothing to do, Li Xi thought about making some preparations for New Year's Eve. Of course, it wasn't about preparing a New Year's Eve dinner or entertaining guests, but about getting to know the Luo family's recent situation. After all, everyone was going back to the old house to celebrate New Year's Eve and stay up all night.

Thinking of this, Li Xi called Mian Lao Si directly. Mian Lao Si was probably busy, and did not answer the phone until the "sorry" prompt tone came from the receiver. Li Xi did not get angry, and hung up the phone and sent him a message.

[Old Four, what are you doing? You're not even answering the phone. Time to get back to work! Help me check on the Luo family's eldest uncle and third uncle's families.]

[Don't worry about good or bad things. If it's a big deal, tell me about it. Don't bother with small things. As for what's big and what's small, you can decide for yourself.]

After sending the message, thinking it would take a while for a reply, Li Xi went out to the yard to bask in the sun. It was warm this year, and the sun was shining brightly for a few days before the New Year. It was so comfortable. Li Xi even asked Uncle Wu to find someone to build a hammock in the yard. It was so relaxing to just lie in the hammock and bask in the sun.

When she woke up from her nap in the sun, Mian Lao Si's reply came. He first expressed his apologies, perhaps because of the busy year-end business, he, the second-in-command, had to go out to do business, so he didn't answer the boss's call immediately.

After that, he began to report on the recent situation of the two families of the Luo family. After listening to several 60-second voice messages, Li Xi couldn't help but sigh that Mian Lao Si was really prepared for a rainy day. It was obvious that he had been monitoring the Luo family all the time, and he paid special attention to each person without bias.

This made it convenient for Li Xi to watch the show, or rather, to spy on the enemy.

But then again, the younger generation of the Luo family, with the exception of Luo Jingxuan, is truly awful. It's been a few months since we last met, and these guys are causing trouble again. Is it really true that the old ones must go before the new ones come?

hehe.
