Chapter 168 Trap



The day after the Jinghai University sports meeting, in the evening at Yi Mansion.

"Sister Yi, seriously, I admire you more than anyone else. You are so talented." Su Xun exaggeratedly expressed his admiration for her while eating the delicious food made by Zhou Yi.

It’s really not Su Xun’s fault. Meiyi clothing, Meiyi sneakers, and this delicious food are all things that his cousin’s brain and hands can’t handle.

Zhou Yi smiled slightly and raised his hand to rub Su Xun's head.

"Xiaoyi, I am really excited that the Meiyi sports shoes were successfully produced and became a hit this time. Thank you very much for helping me realize my dream. Come, I toast you." Old Xiao on the side had red eyes. He stood up with a glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp from Zhou Yi.

He was so grateful to Zhou Yi that he couldn't express it in words. Apart from toasting him, he couldn't think of any other way to thank Zhou Yi.

He had been unable to accomplish something for so many years, but now he finally succeeded. How could he not be excited?

"Xiaoyi, I'll toast you too. I will follow you for the rest of my life." Yunfeng also stood up and raised his glass.

"Brother, what are you talking about? You already have a wife." Su Xun looked at Yunfeng angrily.

Yunfeng looked embarrassed and quickly explained, "I meant that I would hit Xiaoyi wherever he pointed. I didn't mean anything else. Please don't misunderstand me."

"And me, Xiaoyi." Xu Xiaoxiu also stood up with a faint smile.

Zhou Yi felt a little embarrassed by everyone's comments. He smiled mischievously and said, "We're all partners. This result is the result of everyone's joint efforts. Don't just praise me, or I'll become arrogant."

Everyone laughed out loud when they heard this.

Meiyi sports shoes have been very popular in the past few days since their opening. In addition to orders from school athletes, there are also many orders from professional athletes. The acceptance among young people is also very good, and the store's sales are no worse than those of clothing.

This is something worth being happy about, but Zhou Yi always feels a little uncomfortable.

Holding a glass of red wine, he walked to the corridor on the second floor and sat down. He looked up at the stars in the sky and wondered what was happening to Shen Ning.

Before this, Li Zhao and Gao Yunfei had not been able to obtain any substantial evidence against Xian Dong. This wave of sports shoes on the market will definitely have a great impact on Xian Dong's shoe factory. He will definitely fight back. Zhou Yi is in Jinghai, and he can't do anything, but Yun Gaofei and Li Zhao are in Shenning, so he will definitely take action. As long as he takes action, there is no need to worry about not being able to obtain evidence.

Edmund Rocca, the father of forensic science, once said: Whatever you do leaves a trace.

"What's the matter? Are you worried about your Lao Yun?" Xu Xiaoxiu also sat down with a glass of red wine.

Zhou Yi looked up at Xu Xiaoxiu, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and said with a forced smile: "Why are you here?"

"Put away that smiling face of yours. It's unbearable to look at. It's uglier than crying." Xu Xiaoxiu glanced at her and covered her face with her hands.

"Tsk~" This time Zhou Yi was really amused by her.

Xu Xiaoxiu raised his red wine glass and touched it to Zhou Yi's. He took a sip, looked at her and said, "Xiaoyi, tell me the truth, are you worried about Yun Gaofei and the others?"

Zhou Yi paused, took a sip of red wine, pursed his lips, and replied, "It's impossible to say I'm not worried. The launch of these sneakers will definitely trigger Xian Dong to take action. Although this is within the plan, the risk factor is still quite high."

"Just that?" Xu Xiaoxiu looked at Zhou Yi with a wicked smile.

Zhou Yi pretended not to see anything and said calmly, "What else?"

"Don't you feel the slightest bit of concern?" Xu Xiaoxiu glanced at Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi frowned slightly when he heard this. Are you worried?

I’m used to the coffee Yun Gaofei makes every morning. Now I wake up and drink it directly from an empty coffee cup. Does that count?

I'm used to the breakfast Yun Gaofei prepares every morning. These days, I suddenly remember that he's a good cook. Does that count?

I'm used to Yun Gaofei following me around like a little puppy every day. These days, I unconsciously look left and right from time to time. Does that count?

... ...

"What does it feel like to be worried about someone?" Zhou Yi did not answer, but looked at Xu Xiaoxiu and asked back.

This question stumped Xu Xiaoxiu, she didn't know either.

"Maybe, perhaps, nothing tastes good to me?" Xu Xiaoxiu said uncertainly.

"Then I may feel more guilty. After all, it was me who provoked Xian Dong. Yun Gaofei should not be made to bear his anger and means of revenge." Zhou Yi took a deep breath and spoke lightly, as if she was talking to Xu Xiaoxiu, but more like she was talking to herself.

"Just talk nonsense~" Xu Xiaoxiu smiled, "But, love is a very troublesome and complicated thing. It's hard to explain. You just need to follow your heart."

Zhou Yi smiled without saying anything. After a while, she looked at Xu Xiaoxiu and said, "Xiaoxiu, what about you? Have you ever met someone who made your heart beat?"

Zhou Yi was actually quite curious. Xu Xiaoxiu had always been chaste and had no shortage of male friends around her, many of whom admired her. She had also studied abroad in such a romantic country as France, but he had never heard her talk about love.

"Someone you're attracted to? I've had that before." Xu Xiaoxiu took a big sip of red wine. Her cheeks were flushed at this moment, but her eyes were obviously a little dimmer than before.

Zhou Jian saw this and didn't ask any more questions. Everyone has their own stories and secrets.

The two were speechless for a moment, just quietly feeling the autumn night breeze that was a little chilly.

That night, Chen Ning, a farmers' market.

Li Zhao, Qin Bei and two of his men were hiding in a pile of fruits and vegetables.

"Li Zhao, are you sure Xian Dong will meet with the leaders of various forces here tonight?" Qin Bei asked Li Zhao beside him softly.

Li Zhao looked around cautiously, then turned to Qin Bei and said in a low voice, "That's what the information we received said, but looking at the situation on the scene now, I'm afraid it's a scam."

"Is this a trick?" Qin Bei became alert instantly.

Li Zhao nodded, looked around cautiously, and lowered his voice again, "It's past the time stated in the information, and the entire market feels very strange."

After listening to this, Qin Bei carefully observed his surroundings. It was indeed too quiet, as if he was surrounded by enemies.

"What should we do now?" Qin Bei lowered his voice to a level that only they could hear.

Li Zhao frowned, having a very bad feeling that he might have fallen into a trap set by Xian Dong.

"Calm down and observe first." Li Zhao said softly.

"Li Zhao, don't hide, come out, I know you are here." Suddenly Xian Dong's voice came from another direction.

"Not good!" Li Zhao looked solemn and exclaimed softly.

The others held their breath. At this moment, they all knew in their hearts that they had indeed fallen into Xian Dong's trap.
