After listening to Wang Qing's account, Liu Xiaoyuan roughly understood what had happened.
Liu Xiaoyuan had suspected that Wang Qing was not simple, but he never expected that Wang Qing was actually the daughter of the head of the Wang family in the capital. This was indeed beyond Liu Xiaoyuan's expectations.
In the past, Liu Xiaoyuan might have felt that the so-called four great families of Beijing were something unattainable for him. But now, with this god-level invincible system, the so-called four great families of Beijing are nothing special to him!
"General Manager, please be extra careful!" Wang Qing said. "Don't worry, this matter started because of me, and I won't ignore it!"
To be honest, the reason Li Yihao offended Wang Qing wasn't because of Wang Qing, but because Li Yihao held a grudge after being taught a lesson by Liu Xiaoyuan at the massage parlor last time.
So, strictly speaking, this whole thing is because of Lu Siyao!
However, since the Li family members were operating in the shadows, Liu Xiaoyuan would avoid a lot of trouble if Wang Qing helped him, so he naturally didn't mind.
After Wang Qing left the office, Liu Xiaoyuan sat in his office chair and fell into deep thought. Just as Wang Qing said, they must guard against the Li family's retaliation.
If the Li family only targets him and doesn't involve his family, Liu Xiaoyuan isn't worried at all. What he fears most is that the Li family will use his family to threaten him. This is what gives Liu Xiaoyuan the biggest headache.
However, there's no good solution right now; we can only deal with whatever comes our way!
Not long after, Lin Xin called and asked Liu Xiaoyuan how his trip was in the provincial capital and whether he was satisfied with the service at the Jincheng Hotel.
After chatting with Lin Xin for a while, Liu Xiaoyuan asked about Lin Xin's safety. Logically speaking, the other party would not give up on assassinating Lin Xin because of one failure.
Moreover, the last assassination attempt caused the Long family to lose several members, so they certainly won't let it go easily.
Lin Xin naturally understood all this, which is why the Tang brothers, Wen and Wu, had not yet returned to the capital and were still protecting Lin Xin's safety.
At 5:30 p.m., Liu Xiaoyuan's phone rang again. This time it was Lu Siyao calling. On the other end of the line, Lu Siyao sounded very unhappy and questioned Liu Xiaoyuan about when he would be back.
Liu Xiaoyuan joked, "Your Highness, when do you want me to come back? I have things to do right now!"
Lu Siyao, acting like a child, said, "Hmph! Liu Xiaoyuan, you liar! You promised to come back a couple of days ago, but you still haven't returned. You liar, you liar! I want you to appear in front of me right now!"
"Your Highness, aren't you asking me a difficult question? I'm still in the provincial capital, how can I possibly appear before you?" Liu Xiaoyuan teased Lu Siyao.
Lu Siyao said, "I don't care, you liar, you have to show up in front of me today!"
"I don't have wings, and I don't know Sun Wukong's 72 Transformations. I can't make it in time, Your Highness!"
"Hmph! I'll get there even if I can't make it!" Lu Siyao said.
Liu Xiaoyuan asked, "Then may I ask, Your Highness, what reward will I receive if I arrive in time?"
All that Liu Xiaoyuan said before was to dig this pit, waiting for Lu Siyao to jump in!
Lu Siyao, on the other end of the phone, had no idea about Liu Xiaoyuan's little scheme and naturally jumped into the trap he had set without any warning.
"As long as you can appear in front of me today, I will grant you any reward you desire!" Lu Siyao believed that Liu Xiaoyuan was still in the provincial capital, which is why she dared to say such a thing.
When Liu Xiaoyuan saw that Lu Siyao had fallen for his trick, he was so happy he almost burst out laughing. Luckily, he quickly covered his mouth with his hand, suppressed his joy, and said, "You'd better keep your word!"
"Hmph! I am a woman of my word. Do you think I'm a big liar like you?" Lu Siyao said smugly.
"Then you wait here. I'll appear in front of you right now and wait for me for five minutes!" Liu Xiaoyuan said.
At this moment, Lu Siyao finally realized something was wrong and guessed that Liu Xiaoyuan had probably returned and had deliberately led her to say that sentence.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, you liar, you big liar!" Lu Siyao said angrily after realizing she had been tricked.
"Hehe..." Liu Xiaoyuan chuckled mischievously, then hung up the phone.
When she arrived at the police station in her pickup truck, Lu Siyao was dressed in a police uniform and exuded a heroic and spirited air.
"Hi! Your Highness!" After getting out of the car, Liu Xiaoyuan waved to Lu Siyao with a grin and walked over.
Lu Siyao looked very angry, glancing sideways at Liu Xiaoyuan. After Liu Xiaoyuan walked in, she said, "Liar, you big liar!"
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "Your Highness, I have arrived before you just in time. I hope Your Highness will keep your word!"
"Hmph! There's no need to be honest with a liar like you!" Although Lu Siyao was very angry, she wasn't angry at all.
If she were truly angry, she wouldn't be standing here obediently waiting for Liu Xiaoyuan to arrive.
Liu Xiaoyuan naturally understood this as well, knowing that Lu Siyao, like most women, was hypocritical!
“If Your Highness goes back on your word, then you’re a liar just like me. That’s for the best; a liar with a liar, a match made in heaven!” Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile.
Hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's inappropriate remarks, Lu Siyao's pretty face flushed red, her snow-white neck contrasting with her rosy cheeks, making her even more charming.
"Hurry up and teach me kung fu!" When Lu Siyao saw Liu Xiaoyuan staring at her, she was so embarrassed that she quickly walked forward and changed the subject.
"Don't go, Your Highness! We haven't finished talking about the reward yet. There's no rush to practice martial arts!" Liu Xiaoyuan didn't want to let Lu Siyao off so easily, and he smiled as he blocked her way.
Lu Siyao, her face flushed, asked, "Big liar, what reward do you want?"
Liu Xiaoyuan pretended to be deep in thought and said, "After thinking it over, I think it's better to keep the reward simple. How about this, all I want is a sweet kiss from Your Highness!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Siyao glanced shyly at Liu Xiaoyuan, and taking advantage of Liu Xiaoyuan's inattention, stepped on his foot.
However, Lu Siyao knew how to control her strength when she kicked, and didn't use too much force.
Even so, stepping on his toes still caused Liu Xiaoyuan pain.
"Hmph! You big liar, dream on. You're not only a big liar, you're a big bad guy!" Lu Siyao said.
"Women are the most vicious! Ouch!" Liu Xiaoyuan raised his right foot that had been stepped on and pretended to let out a painful wail.
However, Lu Siyao had already seen through Liu Xiaoyuan's trick and didn't fall for it. Instead, she said, "Serves him right!"
Sigh! It seems like I lost out big time today. I didn't get the reward, and instead got kicked. It wasn't worth it at all!
