But as Xie Shiyou drove into a street, Xie Li suddenly disappeared from sight.
He paused, slowed down, and hesitated, wondering whether he should just turn around and go back.
Suddenly, a clear, cool voice asked, "Why are you following me?"
Xie Shiyou turned his head and saw Xie Li standing by the car, looking confused. When he saw it was him, he suddenly realized and said, "It's you."
Xie Shiyou looked like he'd seen a ghost. He had been driving very fast, but he felt like he couldn't catch up with Xie Li no matter what he did; now that Xie Li had appeared, he hadn't even noticed.
It was as if she had appeared out of thin air next to his car window.
He shook his head, wondering if he was overthinking things, but still stopped the car, looking displeased.
"Miss Xie Li, Madam is not at home, so it would be best if you did not go out and cause trouble."
He didn't want to get involved in Xie Li's affairs, but what could he do? Madam Xie felt that Steward Wu was incompetent, so she sent him to keep an eye on Xie Li.
Recently, the Xie family has been interested in forming a marriage alliance with the Pei family. The Pei family will definitely send people to investigate Xie Li. At this sensitive time, we can't let Xie Li embarrass himself in front of the Pei family.
The best way is to restrict Xie Li and prevent her from going out casually.
Xie Li looked confused. "I went out on business, how did that cause trouble?"
She just wanted to get a haircut.
"If something happens, the Xie family will provide you with good food and drink. What could possibly happen to you?" Xie Shiyou scoffed, thinking that Xie Li was just making excuses.
Xie Li ignored him and walked straight to a high-end beauty salon next door.
Xie Shiyou's eyelids twitched, and his nerves immediately tensed up.
This commercial area is a favorite haunt of the wealthy heiresses and socialites living in the villa district of Mid-Levels Bay, and this beauty salon has an even wider customer base.
I hope there isn't some rich lady inside, and Xie Li doesn't accidentally bump into her!
He didn't dare to hesitate, quickly parked his car and followed. Seeing Xie Li still talking to the waiter at the door, he couldn't help but sneer, "Do you want a facial or a haircut?"
"Do you even deserve to patronize such a high-end place? Don't embarrass yourself!"
He had inquired and found out that during Xie Li's stay at the Xie family's house, Ding Huizhu had never mentioned giving her living expenses.
If Xie Li had stayed obediently in the Xie family, he would have had no shortage of food and clothing. But if he wanted to upgrade his lifestyle, that was just a pipe dream.
Thinking this, he naturally said to the waiter, "I'm sorry, she doesn't have a membership card and doesn't meet the minimum spending requirement of 100,000 yuan."
"So it's better not to let her in, lest your boss blame you for dereliction of duty."
Xie Li was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but be amazed. So city dwellers really do spend this much money?
"Then I really can't afford it, I'm sorry." Xie Li quickly apologized to the waiter.
The waiter glanced at Xie Shiyou with a strange look in his eyes. "Sir, you're joking. We don't have such a rule in our restaurant."
Xie Shiyou: "???"
He was stunned, and several times he couldn't help but look up at the sign to make sure he hadn't gone to the wrong place.
But that's right, with its high-end, luxurious yet understated interior design and grand signboard, who else could it be but Venus Beauty Salon?
Xie Shiyou had come with Ding Huizhu several times, so how could he possibly be mistaken?
Upon hearing this, Xie Li hesitated for a moment: "Then does what you just said about the 998 yuan hairstylist personally designing the hair still count?"
The waiter smiled and said, "Of course it counts, please come in." As he spoke, he opened the door and ushered Xie Ligong inside.
