Chapter 692 Waiting for the Truth
Seeing his elder brother's emotion, Li Jinxing couldn't help but ask curiously, "Brother, I asked you before, and you didn't answer, but I still have a question in my mind... Why is our Li family's heirloom an artifact from ancient Egypt? How did this heirloom come into our Li family's hands back then?"
Li Yaofeng raised his eyes and looked at Li Jinxing. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Jinxing, I can only say that this heirloom has been passed down from the ancestors of the Li family. It was neither stolen nor robbed..."
"But there are so many secrets hidden behind this heirloom. Did our ancestors know that there was a map hidden inside it?" Li Jinxing asked with a frown.
"Of course I know, otherwise I wouldn't have kept reminding my descendants not to let this heirloom be lost!" Li Yaofeng shrugged and sighed softly.
Seeing that Li Jinxing was still frowning, Li Yaofeng patted his arm and whispered, "Jinxing, I actually have a lot of doubts in my heart. My father didn't have time to explain too much to me back then. The secret behind this heirloom can only be discovered by you and Nie Yao together!"
Li Jinxing nodded in response and said to his eldest brother in a deep voice, "Don't worry, eldest brother. The Egyptian authorities have agreed to our request and are willing to let Yaoyao lead the archaeological expedition. She will definitely find out the secret behind the heirloom and help us unravel the mystery. This way, we can also find out who is eyeing our heirloom and the Li family, and who even went so far as to kill our parents!"
"Okay, I'll wait for the day when the truth comes out!" Li Yaofeng didn't stop him this time. He smiled faintly and said, "Jinxing, my elder brother is a useless person and can't help you..."
"Brother, you are not a useless person. If it weren't for you, the Li family would have collapsed long ago..." Li Jinxing hurriedly spoke to comfort him.
"Listen to me..." Li Yaofeng's lips curled slightly, and he waved his hand to interrupt his brother's comfort. He said seriously, "Last time, Nie Yao said that you were in danger in Egypt. It means that the people behind the scenes have been making moves. So, your trip to Egypt this time is extremely dangerous. No news can leak out!"
"Brother, don't worry. We have already communicated with Yaoyao's adoptive father and the Egyptian authorities about this matter. They will not leak the news!" Li Jinxing smiled and comforted his brother.
"I trust Nie Yao's adoptive father, but I can't trust anyone else..." Li Yaofeng shook his head and murmured, "I've thought about it. The news of your engagement to Nie Yao has already been released. Many people will think you're going on a honeymoon. You and Nie Yao should stay in Egypt for the time being and don't run around. As for the company's affairs, I will personally help you manage them!"
"Brother?" Li Jinxing stared at his elder brother with wide eyes, grabbed his arm, and looked more nervous than ever before: "Didn't you say that you didn't want to deal with these matters anymore and just wanted to live a leisurely life?"
"I did say that, so I'm relieved to leave everything in your hands. You alone are enough to support the entire Li family!"
Li Yaofeng nodded slightly and said with a smile: "But now you are being watched by a group of desperate criminals. As your eldest brother, I can't just sit back and watch!"
When he said this, he saw Li Jinxing frowning, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Don't worry, big brother is not trying to snatch the power from you. When the culprit behind the scenes surfaces, I will return everything to you and continue to be my rich and idle life!"
