Chapter 292 Your Dirty Mind
Jiang Yao currently has no idea that someone is plotting against her and coveting her behind her back.
She slept well and continued to visit the exhibition with Li Beiting the next morning. After returning in the afternoon and sorting out the materials, she received a call from "Ji Wanqing".
"Yaoyao, are you done? I just went out and heard someone say there's a really nice attraction here. Do you want to go out with me and take a look and buy some souvenirs?"
Ji Wanqing's tone was cheerful, as if she wanted to share her joy.
Jiang Yao originally planned to buy some gifts for her elders and friends. Since the other party took the initiative to invite her, she had no reason to refuse.
"Okay, come down when I'm done packing."
After hanging up the phone, she suddenly thought of something and sent Li Beiting another message: [Are you free this afternoon? Do you want to go out and play together?]
After sending it, she changed into casual clothes, tied up her long hair, wore a necklace on her wrist, and only put a layer of sunscreen on her face, looking clean and refreshed.
When everything was ready, she picked up her phone again and found that the message she sent twenty minutes ago had not been replied.
She remembered that Li Beiting received a phone call during lunch, and his face became a little serious, as if there was a problem to be dealt with at the company.
Now that we are abroad, it may take more time to process.
She simply didn't bother him, picked up her bag and took the elevator downstairs.
In the lobby, Ji Wanqing didn't know how long she had been waiting. When she saw her coming, a hint of worry flashed across her eyes.
But soon, she stood up and waved to her excitedly.
"Yaoyao, here."
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Jiang Yao walked over and left the hotel with her.
Along the way, the two of them walked and chatted.
"I gained a lot from this exhibition. Not only did I get to know someone as amazing as you, but thanks to you, I also had the opportunity to communicate with representatives from various countries and gain a lot of experience. I can report this to my boss when I get back."
There was sincere gratitude in Ji Wanqing's tone.
This surprised Jiang Yao a little, "Wanqing, you are too modest. If you don't have enough strength yourself, those proud foreigners will not be willing to communicate with you.
I also saw your wonderful performance at the exhibition. Don't underestimate yourself, you are very capable."
Ji Wanqing was startled when she heard this.
She never seemed to have thought that someone would encourage and praise her so sincerely.
For a moment, her expression was complicated and moving, and she blurted out: "Thank you Yaoyao, I'm sorry..."
"I'll accept it as a thank you, but you haven't done anything wrong to me, so why should you apologize?" Jiang Yao seemed puzzled.
Ji Wanqing's heart tightened, and she stumbled a little, "I, I actually..."
Before she could finish her words, Jiang Yao suddenly grabbed her hand.
When Ji Wanqing looked up in confusion, Jiang Yao came closer and whispered, "Someone is following us quietly. Be careful."
"What?" Ji Wanqing looked panicked. When she subconsciously turned around, Jiang Yao held her shoulder and stopped her. "Don't look back. Don't show any strangeness. Let's keep going forward."
She calmly held her in his arms and walked forward, like a pair of close friends, continuing to chat about some ordinary topics.
Ji Wanqing's heart was beating faster and faster, and the indescribable tension made her body shiver uncontrollably.
But in the end, she still cooperated and walked forward with Jiang Yao, while replying sporadically.
Until we reached an alley.
Before Ji Wanqing could react, those who had been following them secretly surrounded them from the front and back, blocking their way.
She was so scared that her face turned pale.
Jiang Yao, however, looked calm.
When the other party attacked without saying a word, he attacked like lightning and knocked these people down in a few breaths.
Jiang Yao saw the logos of the previous biker gangs on their clothes.
"This group of people really won't give up." She sneered with a look of disdain.
"Ah——" At this moment, a scream came from behind.
When Jiang Yao turned around, he saw Ji Wanqing lying on the ground holding her abdomen in pain.
Her pupils shrank and she quickly glanced around, but did not see the attacker.
But she couldn't care less at the moment, and quickly ran to Ji Wanqing's side, helping her up. "What's wrong with you, Wanqing? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ji Wanqing coughed twice and opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
"What did you say?"
Jiang Yao tilted his head and put his ear closer.
Just as she looked away, a hand quickly reached out from the side and covered her mouth and nose with a piece of cloth.
Jiang Yao's pupils shrank, and it was too late for her to realize that something was wrong. She inhaled a strong smell of medicine, her head felt dizzy, her vision went black, and she passed out on the spot.
Looking at Jiang Yao lying on the ground, Ji Wanqing slowly stood up.
There was still tension and fear in her eyes, and her tone was filled with guilt.
"I'm sorry... I don't want to hurt you, but I can't help it..."
But now that things have come to this, she has no way out.
She could only quickly contact the mysterious man, take Jiang Yao away, avoid the surveillance cameras, and quickly disappear in the crowd.
…
On the other side, the hotel.
Li Beiting finished a long-distance meeting in the room, finally dealt with urgent company affairs, and hung up the video call.
Only then did I have time to take out my cell phone and saw the message Jiang Yao sent, which was already an hour ago.
He suddenly felt a little apologetic and dialed the contact number.
As a result, after the ringing ended, no one answered.
He thought about it, then sent a message to Jiang Yao on WeChat: [Where are you? Do you want me to come over and accompany you?]
Since he didn't get a reply yet, he didn't think much about it.
After all, there are a lot of people visiting this place, and it’s crowded and noisy. She might not have heard the ringtone and didn’t have time to check her phone.
However, Li Beiting still planned to go out to find Jiang Yao. As a result, as soon as he got up, another call came in.
It was a video call from his mother. After hesitating for a moment, he finally answered the call.
"You still remember to answer my calls. Where have you been these past few days? You're not at the company, and you're not at home either. Are you planning to completely cut off contact with your family?"
He Yunlan's eyebrows were sharp, and there was a lot of temper pent up in her heart.
Li Beiting replied calmly: "I'm on a business trip."
"You're with that shameful woman again! Are you on a business trip or doing something else? Do you still want to hide it from me?" He Yunlan's tone was sarcastic.
Li Beiting's brows also turned cold. He didn't like to hear anyone belittle Jiang Yao, let alone that this person was his mother.
"If that's all you want to tell me, I'm hanging up now."
"Wait—" He Yunlan slammed the table. "Li Beiting, don't you even want to take care of the family business now? Do you know about the recent project problems at the Li Group?"
