Chapter 444 Can’t Wait to See My Laugh
Ye Wanxi was a little dumbfounded when she saw that there were at least several pounds of snacks in the bag.
"This must weigh several pounds, right?"
“My mom was worried you’d get tired of eating the same thing all the time, so she made a little of everything so you could eat a different one.” Feng Tianyu looked at Ye Wanxi’s wide-eyed, bewildered expression and smiled slightly. “My mom also said that you can tell her what you want to eat after you’ve finished eating. She’s been obsessed with cooking lately, so if you want, she might just cook it for you overnight.”
"..." No way, no way!
"Wouldn't this be...too much trouble for her?"
"If it were you, she would probably be happy to be bothered."
Ye Wanxi lowered her head slightly embarrassed, but the smile on her lips never faded.
Ye Wanxi's attention was successfully drawn to the snacks in her hand, and she had long forgotten her discussion with Feng Tianyu.
Of course, she didn't dare mention buying snacks for the crew anymore.
She already felt embarrassed enough eating it herself; to ask her to eat it and take some with her was something Ye Wanxi knew she didn't have the nerve to do.
Ning Anquan and the others did not personally go to pick up Ye Wanxi today, but instead waited outside the Li family for her arrival.
When the group saw Ye Wanxi come down, there was someone else with her, and this person seemed to be someone of considerable importance.
They were extremely curious about this person, but at least they still had business to attend to and wisely refrained from digging deeper to find out Feng Tianyu's identity.
"Is he inside?"
Ning Anquan glanced at Feng Tianyu, walked to Ye Wanxi's side and replied, "This morning, a series of scandals involving the private lives and finances of the Li family's company suddenly broke out, and now the company is in complete chaos."
Ye Wanxi raised an eyebrow, looking at the group as if she sensed something: "You guys did this?"
"It's just revealing the truth."
"Logically speaking, he should be overwhelmed with problems at the company right now."
Ning Anquan's smile faded slightly: "This is something we also can't figure out."
As they had originally planned, even if Li Suizhi didn't panic after the company's troubles, he would definitely try to suppress the problems and take remedial measures, instead of abandoning the company's mess and running home like he has now.
To prevent him from escaping, Ning Anquan even arranged for people to guard the entrance of Li Suizhi's company in advance, so that they could report any suspicious activity and have someone arrest him in time.
Unexpectedly, the person did move, but instead of running away, chose to go home.
Feng Tianyu stood behind Ye Wanxi, glanced at the building in front of him, and frowned slightly: "Be careful."
Feng Tianyu said this to Ye Wanxi, but Ning Anquan and the others were taken aback.
Looking at Feng Tianyu's serious face, the group had a feeling that he wouldn't speak without reason. So, was there something in this building that they were wary of?
The three ordinary rookies felt a chill run down their spines at the same time, and almost couldn't help but huddle together and tremble.
Hearing his words, Ye Wanxi's expression also darkened. Her senior brother's warning was not without reason. There was a faint black aura lingering above the house, which was cold, sticky, and made people very uncomfortable.
"It seems the person who helped Li Suizhi arrange all this is in this house. Are you... sure you want to come in with me? It might really be dangerous."
Ning Anquan pursed his lips and spoke first: "I...I want to go in. I have some questions I want to ask him in person."
Ye Wanxi nodded, then turned to the other two and asked, "And you two?"
“We’ll go in too. Those who came together should go in together. How can we desert and let him go in alone?”
"That's right, that's right. We still have the amulets Miss Ye gave us, so we're not afraid."
Ye Wanxi was not surprised by the result, but she turned her head to look at Fengtianyu.
Feng Tianyu knew what she wanted to say the moment he met her eyes, and said helplessly and indulgently, "I know."
Ye Wanxi then smiled and turned to the group, saying, "You can go in, but you have to follow the rules. You must stay close to us and not stray too far. Especially, you can't stray too far from him, otherwise if we encounter any unexpected accidents and can't save you in time, you might really be dead."
The three were startled and quickly said, "Don't worry, we promise to stay right behind you and we won't wander off."
Before the incident, the Li family and the Ning family had always had a good relationship. Ning Anquan's father had even brought him to the Li family several times.
Therefore, when Aunt Li heard someone knocking on the door and came out to greet them, she immediately recognized Ning Anquan.
"Young Master Ning, what brings you here?"
Ning Anquan did not show any emotion, and said with a faint smile, "Is Uncle Li here? I heard that his company had some problems, and I was worried that Uncle Li, who is already old, might not be able to handle such a thing, so I came to check on him."
Ning Anquan's words sounded reasonable, but Aunt Li felt that something was off, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it, so she didn't investigate further.
"So you've come to see the gentleman. Please come in and have a seat. He just went upstairs to the second floor. I'll go and call him right away."
"Thank you for your trouble." Ning Anquan led the group into the house, but his gaze swept around the Li family's residence, his expression grave.
Seeing this, Zou Hanming asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Is there something amiss here?"
"It's too quiet."
"Jing?" All eyes in the room were on him.
“When I came here before, they had a housekeeper, a housekeeper, servants, a private nanny and a chef, plus his wife and two children, it was very lively. But now... there is only a housekeeper.”
"His wife, son, and daughter aren't here?"
Ning Anquan was also a little puzzled when he mentioned this: "His daughter used to study abroad, and his son was admitted to a high school abroad this year. In order to take care of the two children, his wife also went abroad to settle down."
“His whole family has gone abroad, leaving him all alone in the country.”
None of them were fools. The whole family of three was abroad, leaving only Li Suizhi, the head of the family, in the country. This didn't seem like a coincidence at all.
As the group was talking, the person in charge of the conversation came down from upstairs.
Having just weathered a company crisis, Li Suizhi was dressed in a well-fitting suit. Apart from a hint of fatigue in his eyes, he showed no signs of distress.
"An Quan is here? And who are these people...?"
“They are all my friends.” Ning Anquan stood up immediately when he saw him approach, his gaze somewhat complicated, but he quickly suppressed it, turning it into concern. “Uncle Li, I heard that your company has recently run into some minor trouble. Do you need my help…”
Li Suizhi gave him a cryptic look and smiled, "Your information network is quite impressive. As soon as you received the news, you brought so many friends to my door, including a master. Are you so eager to see me make a fool of myself?"
