Chapter 674: Anger
When he heard that it was his son who made a mistake, Butler Lei panicked a little. He didn't even dare to ask more questions. He agreed to Li Jinxing's request and quickly packed his luggage and rushed back to Li Garden.
It wasn't until Li Jinxing hung up the phone that Li Yaofeng couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Jinxing, if you arrange for Butler Lei to come back, what will you do? The place where you and Nie Yao live will eventually need a butler..."
"Not for the time being..." Li Jinxing shook his head and smiled faintly. He lowered his head to glance at Nie Yao and explained to his eldest brother, "We are leaving for Egypt tomorrow. Yaoyao will also stay in Egypt to carry out archaeological work. I will fly over to see her from time to time. We rarely stay in my villa, so why do we need a housekeeper?"
Nie Yao also nodded quickly and agreed with a smile: "Yes, big brother, you don't have to worry about us. Li Garden still needs a housekeeper!"
"Okay..." Li Yaofeng nodded slightly, without saying anything else, and waved his hand, saying: "You guys go to the hospital, I want to go out for some fresh air..."
Li Jinxing nodded, holding Nie Yao's hand and preparing to leave, but Li Yaofeng called him back and said hesitantly, "Jinxing, our Li family is not ungrateful. When you see Lin Xiaoxiao, remember to express your gratitude..."
"Don't worry, big brother. I've made preparations!" Li Jinxing smiled and nodded in response. He said goodbye to his big brother, then left the living room with Nie Yao, got into the Li family's car and left Li Garden.
On the way to the hospital, Li Jinxing saw Nie Yao was silent, and he couldn't help but stroke the back of her hand and whispered, "Yaoyao, do you think that my punishment on Owen was too harsh?"
"I don't know either..." Nie Yao shook her head honestly, met Li Jinxing's eyes, and answered hesitantly: "But I think you have your reasons for doing this!"
"Do you think that I punished Owen like this because I was angry with him about Lin Xiaoxiao?" Li Jinxing raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
Nie Yao didn't answer, but her silent expression told him the answer.
Li Jinxing sighed softly and explained in a quiet tone, "It seems that it's not just Big Brother who thinks this way, but you as well... Even though he really shouldn't have kept the matter of Lin Xiaoxiao a secret for so long, I punished Owen not only because he made sachets for me without telling Lin Xiaoxiao! This matter may seem small, but it also shows that he is dishonest. He grew up with us, but he wanted to interfere with my feelings, whether it was Lin Xiaoxiao or later you..."
"I can't comment on Lin Xiaoxiao's affairs, but I really don't care that he arranged that room for me..." Nie Yao smiled faintly and said nonchalantly, "He's just a housekeeper. It was my eldest brother who was dissatisfied with me in the beginning. I know your eldest brother wanted to intimidate me, and he, as a housekeeper, wouldn't just be following your eldest brother's orders!"
"Do you really think so?" Li Jinxing frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Yaoyao, do you think Owen's problem is not serious and that my punishment on him is too harsh?"
"I think his loyalty to you two brothers is unquestionable. As for whether he has any selfish motives, I can't be sure..." Nie Yao replied in a low voice.
"Yaoyao, sometimes you shouldn't think people are too kind..." Li Jinxing didn't say much, just sighed softly: "I just want to take this opportunity to warn him, let him understand his own status, and don't take advantage of Big Brother's trust in him just because I haven't been back for years..."
