Bai Weiwei was extremely unwilling to accept that she was falling behind.
"President Yu, the Li family is indeed an outsider in the jewelry industry. If you want to cooperate with the Li family, you should consider the risks."
Bai Weiwei's words are indeed very reasonable, and this is also a drawback of the Li family.
Whether to stick to the conventional path or try something innovative depends on Yu Xin's own ideas.
"President Yu, I believe that the Li family can avoid the corresponding risks. I am very confident in this cooperation."
The two men talked about their own strengths at the tea table, each showing off their unique abilities.
After talking for so long, it's becoming increasingly clear that Yu Xin is leaning more towards Li Susu's side.
Even so, Yu Xin did not give an immediate reply.
"We've been chatting for so long, you must all be tired. I've asked the servants to prepare afternoon tea, so please go and rest for a while."
Yu Xin waved her hand, calling over a maid to escort the group to their guest rooms to rest.
"Thank you, Mr. Yu."
Li Susu spoke first, expressing great confidence in her plan and ideas.
Bai Weiwei, however, seemed less composed, her face turning somewhat gloomy.
After leaving the flower hall, Li Susu went to the restroom first, and Bai Weiwei followed her.
Li Susu placed her handbag on the table, Bai Weiwei's eyes flashed, and she put the lighter from her bag directly into it.
She then left first, pretending to go to her guest room to rest.
After the maid left, Bai Weiwei opened the door a crack, peeked outside, and sneaked out furtively.
At this time of year, there are many fallen leaves in Rose Manor, making it easy for them to catch fire.
Bai Weiwei dodged the surveillance cameras and reached a blind spot, where she lit the dry leaves with a lighter.
In an instant, flames surged up, and in the firelight, Bai Weiwei quickly slipped back to her guest room.
By the time the servants discovered the fire in the backyard, many of the rose bushes had already been burned, leaving only ashes and a mess.
Yu Xin was taking a short rest in the flower hall when she soon heard the servants' hurried voices.
"Oh no, Mr. Yu, the roses in the backyard... have all been burned."
Yu Xin opened her eyes instantly, a sharp glint flashing in them.
"What did you say?"
"President Yu, why don't you go and take a look yourself?"
Yu Xin picked up the blanket she was wearing and followed the maid out, her high heels creaking on the floor.
This incident also alarmed the three guests. When Li Susu came out of the guest room, she saw dust everywhere and frowned.
How could it be such a coincidence? The moment they arrived, the villa caught fire.
Could there be something fishy going on?
Bai Weiwei also came out of the guest room at this moment, covering her mouth and exclaiming in surprise.
"Oh dear, what happened? All the flowers have been burned. President Yu must be very angry."
Li Susu's gaze fell on Bai Weiwei, with a hint of wariness and scrutiny.
Could it have been this woman?
The group quickly arrived at the backyard, where Yu Xin was investigating the cause of the fire.
At this time, the servants in the manor were preparing afternoon tea. Guests were resting in the backyard, and the remaining servants did not dare to disturb them, so they stayed in the front yard.
No one saw the cause of the fire.
There aren't many security cameras in the backyard, since it's Yu Xin's living area and she doesn't like her privacy being exposed.
"Mr. Yu, the fallen leaves in the backyard haven't been swept up yet today, perhaps..."
"Can't you even do this little thing right? I've reminded you before, it's autumn now, and the weather is dry."
