After seven long days of suffering, Shi Qi finally met Li Shaoyu.
At the gate of the Li family villa, Li Shaoyu got out of the car exhausted.
He walked into the house with a slightly hesitant step, a suit draped over his hand.
Ever since the bad news about Li Yuanliang and him came out, Ruan Qingwan could no longer hide it.
Shi Qi simply did not hide it from her. After explaining everything to her in detail, he did not go to the store and stayed at home to take care of Ruan Qingwan, for fear that she could not bear the blow.
A few days ago, Li Yuanliang and Li Shaoyu were both under investigation and could not return home.
Ruan Qingwan and Shi Qi were waiting at home, their hearts tense.
Finally seeing Li Shaoyu coming back, Ruan Qingwan, supported by Shi Qi, immediately rushed up and grabbed him tightly.
"Shaoyu, where's your dad? Is he okay?"
In front of the Li family's servants and the driver behind him, Li Shaoyu remained silent, just supporting Ruan Qingwan and slowly walking home.
Shi Qi couldn't guess whether Li Shaoyu was pretending or really doing it, and followed the two into the house nervously.
Walking into the house, Li Shaoyu sighed, his face gloomy:
"Mom, Dad's situation is very bad. I brought some information. You and Ningchu can come to my study to take a look."
Ruan Qingwan's body swayed, but Shi Qi quickly supported her.
Looking at Li Shaoyu's back as he went upstairs, Shi Qi comforted Ruan Qingwan:
"Mom, don't be anxious, let's listen to what my brother has to say first."
Ruan Qingwan's eyes were filled with tears. She held her daughter's hand tightly and nodded vigorously.
Yes, let’s listen to what Shaoyu says first.
Maybe she was taking things too seriously.
The three of them went into the study on the second floor together.
Shi Qi was the last to enter and closed the door behind him.
After letting Ruan Qingwan sit down first, Shi Qi looked at Li Shaoyu behind the desk with inquiring eyes.
Now that there were no outsiders around, Li Shaoyu's face suddenly became serious.
The dejection and loneliness he had just shown disappeared, and he looked at the mother and daughter opposite him with an apologetic look.
“I’m sorry, Mom.
I scared you and your sister just now.
Don't worry, Dad and Grandpa are fine.
The Li family is fine too.
Everything that happened these days was arranged by grandpa and the others.
The purpose is to find out who is behind the framing of the Li family.
And...that Li family member who betrayed the country."
Ruan Qingwan's heart, which had just been relieved, became tense again, and she stared at Li Shaoyu closely.
"You won't be in danger, will you?"
Li Shaoyu's eyes, filled with murderous intent, were filled with a soft light as he looked at the two women that he and his father cherished most.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be okay.
To be on the safe side, our family of three should not go out recently.
Waiting for news from Grandpa and Dad at home."
He has finished his part, and the rest is left to his grandfather and the others.
After half a month of intensive planning, now is the time to slowly cast the net.
He breathed a sigh of relief, a bright smile appeared on Shi Qi's face, and he squatted down to look into Ruan Qingwan's red eyes.
"Look, Mom, I didn't lie.
I told you that dad and brother can handle this matter, but you still don't believe me.
Now that I've said this, don't worry."
Thinking of the scene when Li Shaoyu just came back, Shi Qi turned to look at him and guessed:
"Brother, does our Li family have any spies from other families?"
Li Shaoyu showed approval and praised Shi Qi:
“Ning Chu is really smart.
Don't worry, they won't dare to act rashly here.
We are safe and sound.
The only thing is, we're going to do a play together in the next few days."
Shi Qi held Ruan Qingwan's hand and gave her encouragement and support.
Nodding in agreement:
"We should act sad and depressed these few days so that people in the dark won't notice anything."
Over the next two or three days, Li Shaoyu and Shi Qi began acting.
When there are outsiders around, he becomes silent, goes downstairs to eat, eats a few bites casually, and then goes back upstairs to stay, not going anywhere.
Ruan Qingwan was a soft-hearted person, and Shi Qi was afraid that she would reveal her true identity, so he let her sleep in the room and not go downstairs.
The food and drinks were brought to her personally.
In the eyes of the Li family's servants, the lady was so sad that she couldn't eat or drink, and even refused to come downstairs.
After acting with a bitter face for a few days, Shi Qi went to Li Shaoyu's study every night to ask him about the situation on Li Yuanliang's side.
Li Shaoyu knew that his sister was extremely intelligent, and that the Li family was able to avoid this crisis thanks to her reminder.
Therefore, whenever Li Yuanliang sent back some news, he would share it with Shi Qi.
Knowing that Li Yuanliang was making good progress, Shi Qi felt relieved.
I stay in the villa every day, and apart from delivering meals upstairs, I draw design drafts.
Then in the evening I discussed the current situation with Li Shaoyu.
That night, the brother and sister were at the desk, one reading documents and the other drawing a design. They were both busy but at peace with each other.
Li Shaoyu finished reading a document and raised his hand to sign it.
When I turned around and saw Shi Qi's flushed face under the light, my heart was moved.
His sister is really outstanding in every way.
That brat Gu Chijin got a free ride.
Thinking of Gu Chijin, Li Shaoyu hesitated.
This time, grandpa and the others set up a trap and included Gu Chijin in it.
In order to reassure the Qu family, he had not yet had the time to tell Ning Chu about this matter.
I don’t know if Ning Chu will be angry when he finds out.
After hesitating for a while, for the first time in his life, Li Shaoyu was undecided about something.
Noticing Li Shaoyu's gaze, Shi Qi looked up after finishing the design draft.
Just happened to meet Li Shaoyu's hesitant gaze.
Tilting his head, Shi Qi spoke softly:
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Li Shaoyu retracted his gaze and continued to read the document:
"It's okay. It's just that Dad called me today and asked me to take good care of you and Mom, so I was overthinking it for a moment."
So that's how it is. Shi Qi nodded, put the design draft aside, took out another piece of white paper and continued to outline the lines, comforting Li Shaoyu.
