Chapter 1168 It’s better to take action sooner
"I'm already angry!" Nie Yao twisted her neck away, afraid of being tickled, and muttered softly, "If it weren't for your injuries not healing yet, I really would have sued you for invading my privacy. After all, you not only investigated me, but you also secretly climbed through the window..."
"That was probably the most daring thing I have ever done in my life, but one I do not regret!" Li Jinxing sighed softly.
"If others knew that the great Master Li Jiu could do such a thing..." Nie Yao glared at him, but couldn't hold back her smile. She tapped his forehead and said with a smile, "Let's see if you're afraid of being embarrassed!"
"What's shameful about chasing your wife?" Li Jinxing held her fingers, lowered his head and kissed her again.
"Now I'm just your fiancée..." A string of mumbling came out from the corner of Nie Yao's lips.
"As long as you agree, we can go through the marriage registration procedures tomorrow and then hold the wedding..." Li Jinxing laughed softly.
"It's not the right time yet. Grandpa's illness hasn't healed, and the murderer hasn't been sent to prison. Let's wait until all this is over..."
Nie Yao sighed softly and put her arms around his neck.
"Okay!" Li Jinxing nodded slightly, his voice gentle and doting.
The bedroom, which had been empty for a while, was now filled with spring.
The next morning, Nie Yao was sleeping soundly. Li Jinxing didn't have the heart to wake her up, so he called his assistant Li Qin to come to the villa. He gave him Nie Yao's jewelry and asked him to take it to a jewelry appraiser to see if it was a replica.
Li Qin had also heard about Nie Jinxi stealing the jewels from Nie Yao and returning them. He took the jewels from Li Jinxing, glanced at them, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Nie Jinxi is quite bold! These jewels are worth a fortune. This set of pigeon-blood rubies must be worth at least tens of millions..."
"Otherwise she wouldn't have been tempted to steal!" Li Jinxing replied with a sneer.
"Is this a gift from Mr. Nie to Madam?" Li Qin asked curiously.
"I heard that some of them were given by Mr. Nie, and some were given by Yaoyao's father!"
"It seems that the Nie family is quite good to Madam, and they know how to compensate her!" After Li Qin finished speaking, Li Jinxing sneered and said in a light tone: "This compensation is not enough. After all, Yaoyao suffered so much outside. The Nie family waited for almost twenty years to find her. What were they doing before that?"
"Master Jiu means..." Li Qin looked at Li Jinxing's expression and guessed something. He asked cautiously, "Could it be that the entire Nie family..."
Li Jinxing smiled noncommittally, picked up his coffee and took a sip. "The entire Nie family isn't anything to worry about, but their second son likes to cause trouble. I'm afraid that before I even take action, he'll ruin the Nie family fortune. I might as well take action sooner rather than later!"
Li Qin nodded in agreement and whispered, "Yes, that Nie Guanglin is completely unreliable. He's already squandered a ton of the family fortune, and now the Nie family wants to hand over that important project to him. I don't think it's going to work out..."
"Even if the Nie family can take over that development project, they will still have to shoulder a lot of burdens. If they are not careful, they may even lose all their capital!"
Li Jinxing said to Li Qin, "You should also let our subsidiary bid!"
"Yes!" Li Qin nodded quickly and prepared to leave with the jewels. Li Jinxing said, "By the way, don't tell Yaoyao about this for now, lest she get suspicious..."
