She is indeed a very scheming woman.

Just as Li Hanting finished this thought, he saw the woman in front of him suddenly laugh. Her gorgeous face was radiant with brilliance because of this smile, like a flash of a flower.

Li Hanting was distracted for a moment when he saw her pick up the check and tear it into pieces in front of him.

As Xia Yunxi watched the man's calm face gradually turn cold, a sense of pleasure flashed through her heart.

Without even blinking, she tore up the check and threw it directly at the man.

This was something she had wanted to do from a long time ago. Did he really think that everyone was like them, putting profit first in everything they did?

She would tell him that some people and things really cannot be bought off with money!

Li Hanting's face was as gloomy as water. He looked at the woman in front of him and squeezed out a sentence with almost gritted teeth: "What do you mean?"

"Since you've given it to me, I can do whatever I want with it. Mr. Li won't even interfere with this, right?" Xia Yunxi sneered and stabbed back.

Li Hanting pursed his thin lips into a line, his hard face exuding a chill, looking extremely indifferent.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot I have a gift for you too." Xia Yunxi took out a card from her bag and handed it to Li Hanting.

Li Hanting looked at this ordinary card and laughed angrily: "Why, are you trying to bribe me?"

"You also know this is 'buy'?" Xia Yunxi said in pretended surprise. She stood up and had no intention of chatting with him anymore.

She hadn't eaten a single grain of rice since her morning meal, and was already starving.

Because she was standing up, she had a certain advantage in sight, which made Xia Yunxi look superior. "Mr. Li, it would be better for you to take this card seriously. After all, it concerns Mr. Qi Jun's fate. By the way, I have put in a lot of effort for this gift! You don't have to thank me, just treat my child well."

After saying this with deep meaning, Xia Yunxi turned around and left without looking back.

Li Hanting, who was sitting in his original seat, had a frost-like look in his dark eyes. No one had ever dared to insult him like this.

This woman... is so brave!

Li Hanting was extremely angry. It was because of his anger that he didn't take this card seriously at all.

However, when he stood up to leave, Li Hanting's face was covered with frost, and his dark and calm eyes did not let him lose his mind and leave completely.

He turned back and looked at the card on the table.

Li Hanting felt a strange feeling in his heart. A bank card, what's in it? There is no need for words, and the reason why he had such a feeling was...

This is because this is the first time that he has been given money by a woman.

This dealt an unprecedented blow to Li Hanting's male self-esteem, but in the end, he still picked it up.

Li Hanting was thinking that his life had been turned upside down since he met that woman!

——

Xia Yunxi returned home and made herself something to eat.

Then he washed up and went to bed.

Just as I was about to fall asleep, the phone rang.

I had just bought it and hadn't set it up yet, so when the news came, it immediately broke Xia Yunxi's sleepiness that had been hard-earned.

She opened her eyes, took the phone and looked at it.

Unexpectedly, it was a transnational message.

Xia Yunxi clicked on it and saw a small message: "I will return to China on the 8th of next month. Love you, Jun."

As soon as Xia Yunxi saw the last word, she suddenly came to her senses, and then she felt overwhelmed.

What's that guy Ye Chengjun up to? What's going back to China?

Didn't he say his home was in Australia? When did he start saying he was returning home?

Perhaps guessing what she was thinking, the guy immediately sent another message: "Oh, going back to your hometown!"

Even though they had never met, Xia Yunxi could imagine the bad side of that guy.

She simply didn't know what to say. She pressed her finger in the input box, wanting to say something, but she couldn't type it out.

Forget it, let’s talk about it when we meet!

Xia Yunxi simply ignored the fact that she didn't want to get entangled with that person at all.

Have a good night.

For several days in a row, Xia Yunxi got up early and went to bed late every day.

Although life is busy, it is also unexpectedly fulfilling, which alleviates a lot of spiritual loneliness.

However, because of being busy, it has faded, but it does not mean it has been forgotten.

Xia Yunxi was already thinking about how to get in touch with Xia Yuan, or hack into the Imperial Mansion villa system to check on those two little guys?

It has been a long time since Xia Yuan contacted her unexpectedly, but Xia Yuan has never sent any message since then, which makes Xia Yunxi very worried.

She knew that it was the man who prevented the two children from contacting her...

Whenever Xia Yunxi thought about it, she felt extremely regretful.

Why did he, just to save face, not only did he not take the check from the other party, but he also returned all the money he had worked so hard to get.

Hundreds of millions of funds...

It is enough for Xia Yunxi and her two children to have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

Whenever she thought of this, her heart bleeds.

It was just that what had happened, no matter how much you thought about it, could not be reversed. Xia Yunxi could only lament and accept her fate of going to get off work from nine to five.

Imperial Palace.

Li Hanting was on a business trip. When they heard the news, the two little guys, who were huddled in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, either drawing or doing homework, raised their heads at the same time.

On those two identical little faces, the same message flashed in their clear eyes.

Their chance has come.

Ever since being locked up in the small dark room, Xia Yuan has wanted to leave here and find his mommy more than once.

However, due to the great prestige his stepfather had bestowed on him, Xia Yu'an didn't dare to act too recklessly when Li Hanting was around. Now that Li Hanting was gone, Xia Yu'an's thoughts became active almost immediately.

He was already demonstrating in his mind how to escape from here and what route to take to find Mommy.

More importantly, he had to get his electronic watch back so that he could contact his mother.

Xia Yuan’s idea was good, but no matter whether he went upstairs or to the bathroom, there was always a little tail following him with the same pace, never leaving his side.

Finally, when he could no longer bear it, Xia Yu'an turned around and looked at Li Jinchen, "Why are you following me?"

He hadn't considered taking his brother with him. After all, his not-so-bright mind knew all too well that he hadn't been raised by his adopted father since childhood. His adopted father might look for him if he left, but he wouldn't be that angry. But if he took his brother with him, the situation would be different.

He might be caught before he even walks out of the villa gate.
