"Now that you've made the decision, don't overthink it. As you said, those two young people are innocent. They didn't know each other's backgrounds when they were dating and married. But once the child's illness was revealed, they would definitely investigate, and sooner or later they would discover their relationship. Whether you expose it or not, the rift between them and the damage caused are irreparable. If you expose it online, as long as you keep their identities secret and have your hacker friend write a code to hide the family's information further, netizens won't be able to find them, and no amount of discussion will ever get to the real person."
Because of what Li Xi was doing, Luo Jingxuan would occasionally go online to check out gossip and public opinion, and unknowingly learned some online jargon. How should I put it? This statement, coupled with his icy face, had a unique flavor.
But Li Xi wasn't in the mood to admire the beauty at the moment. She was focused solely on Luo Jingxuan's words. Right, wouldn't it be better to prevent netizens from digging them out? Heaven and earth know, and the people involved know. Even if it were exposed online, no one would think anything of it. Exposing this matter wouldn't cause them much harm.
"That makes sense!" Li Xi, who had figured it out, looked at Luo Jingxuan with bright eyes. He became lively again, a stark difference from the zombie-like appearance he had last night.
Seeing Li Xi return to "normal", Luo Jingxuan also breathed a sigh of relief, unconsciously revealing a slight smile, with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
Although his smile was not so obvious, Li Xi still caught it. Then Li Xi was struck by the beauty and stared at Luo Jingxuan.
"What's wrong?" Li Xi stared at the person too intently, which of course alarmed the person involved.
"You laughed." Li Xi said foolishly.
"Can't I laugh?" Luo Jingxuan found it amusing. It wasn't that he couldn't laugh, nor was he one of those bitter, vengeful people who disliked laughing; it was simply a habit. After his parents' unexpected death, he was devastated and couldn't laugh for a long time. Later, he studied hard. From the moment he opened his eyes to the moment he closed them, his mind was filled with knowledge, cases, techniques, and so on. He had no energy left to feel happy, so naturally, he didn't laugh often.
When he took over the family business, he was young and didn't trust anyone. In order to create a more dignified image, he rarely smiled, not even micro-expressions. Over time, he got used to it. But he thought he had been quite relaxed with Li Xi these past few months, and her expressions were more varied than at the company. He wouldn't be so surprised by a smile, right?
"No, it's just that I rarely see you smile, and you look so pretty." Li Xi didn't know what was wrong with her. She had never seen Luo Jingxuan smile before, although it was always a light chuckle, but she didn't feel much before. At most, she would sigh and say, "Beautiful girl!" But today, he stared at her for a long time, like a pervert.
"Don't you look good when you don't smile?" Luo Jingxuan smiled even more broadly when he heard that. His eyes curved up and he even had the intention of teasing people.
Dazzled by Luo Jingxuan's beautiful smile, Li Xi's face flushed instantly, and she didn't dare to stare at him anymore. "It's beautiful."
Luo Jingxuan has seen Li Xi in many ways: timid, giggling, high-spirited, wanton, thoughtful, silly... This is the first time he sees her blushing. It's quite interesting. Is she embarrassed or shy?
In the past, Luo Jingxuan didn't care who blushed or why, but at this moment, he really wanted to understand why Li Xi blushed, "You..."
“It’s time to eat!”
But just as Luo Jingxuan opened his mouth and hadn't said a few words, Aunt Lin called him to eat.
Li Xi, acting like an ostrich, looked up at Luo Jingxuan's expression, quickly got up, and hurried towards the restaurant. "I'm coming, I've been hungry for a long time."
Luo Jingxuan, who was left on the sofa, smiled and shook his head. It seemed that it didn't matter whether he figured it out or not. After all, he was at home and there would be plenty of opportunities to find out in the future.
Thinking of this, Luo Jingxuan also walked towards the restaurant, but unlike Li Xi who shouted as he walked, he just walked there with his head down. After washing his hands and sitting down at the dining table, he returned to his usual cold look, as if the smile just now was a mirage.
Seeing this, Li Xi kept giving thumbs up in her heart. This expression management is perfect!
It was not appropriate to talk about serious matters while eating, so the two chatted about some random things. Of course, it was mainly Li Xi who was talking and Luo Jingxuan who was listening.
Li Xi was riding on the back of a motorcycle for the first time today. She was very excited and found it novel, so she shared this experience with Luo Jingxuan. Luo Jingxuan was a good listener, and although his expression didn't change much, he responded with words and gestures. This was a great encouragement for the narrator.
So Li Xi talked nonstop throughout the meal. In between words, he would not forget to take a mouthful of rice. Just like this, a mouthful of rice would give him a long speech. After the meal, Li Xi finished two bowls of rice and did not eat much of the vegetables.
After chatting and finishing their meal, Li Xi had long forgotten the excitement she'd felt at first glance, and Luo Jingxuan didn't bother to ask why Li Xi blushed. As usual, they each finished their meal, one going to the study to work while the other watched TV or played with their phone.
It was a new day, and Li Xi was still a lazy fish. Su Yu came to see her after school. After chatting about daily life for a while, the two of them got down to business.
That afternoon, Mian Lao Si sent over the latest findings. They had begun to shed light on the couple, but the details would take another day to compile. Mian Lao Si first sent over a list of women who had relationships with Hua family men over the years. Mian Lao Si emphasized that this list wasn't necessarily complete, but it was the best they could find.
Mr. Hua, Mr. Hua II, Mr. Hua III, and even Mr. Hua Lao were all on the list. Li Xi and Su Yu became increasingly alarmed the more they looked. It wasn't like Zhao Haoran, who often used tricks to gain access to people, but the sheer number of them was simply too great.
