After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies
Chapter 992: Fear of Danger
But when she looked at the Swiss bank account, the numbers on it made Lilith's eyes red. At the same time, she also realized that Xuan'er was an inexhaustible gold mine. She could use him to threaten Zhang Kaifeng and make him work for her.
As for the young man arranged by Zhang Kaifeng, Lilith had already made full preparations. On the surface, the two of them seemed to be in a cooperative relationship, but in fact, she had secretly made arrangements. As long as the situation was not right, she would kill him immediately to silence him!
But how can I convince my grandfather to let me arrange for someone to come in?
With her brows slightly furrowed, Lilith didn't notice when Xiao Jincheng stopped and turned around to look at her.
"What are you thinking about?"
Lilith suddenly came back to her senses and said with a smile, "Oh, I was thinking about what to prepare to entertain the Philip family tonight. They are our old friends, and we can't lose etiquette."
Xiao Jincheng seemed very satisfied with this answer and said, "Indeed, whether from a business or friendship perspective, the Philip family and our Xiao family have a close relationship. The world is not as good as it used to be. It is much easier to hold on to old customers than to cultivate new ones."
Seeing that Xiao Jincheng hadn't noticed her absence, Lilith was secretly pleased. She said, "Don't worry, Grandpa. I'll have the kitchen ready. After dinner, a singer will sing Mr. Philip's favorite opera, and then we'll rest in the castle's garden attic. I heard that Mrs. Philip loves flowers very much. She would be very happy if she lived there."
Xiao Jincheng nodded continuously as he listened, and said with a smile, "Well, that's a good arrangement. Let's proceed with it."
Seeing that Xiao Jincheng recognized her attention, Lilith was very happy and said, "Grandpa, don't worry. Lilith will definitely track all the details and will not let the Philip family or you down!"
Xiao Jincheng nodded, then turned around and looked at the fish tank in front of him. He threw the fish food in his hand into it. Koi fish of various colors swam over happily, scrambling to open their mouths to grab the food.
Seeing Xiao Jincheng's expression, Lilith knew that he needed some quiet time alone, so she quietly stepped back and left.
Standing in the middle hall, Lilith was in a good mood. She felt that Xiao Jincheng was relying on her more and more, even entrusting her with matters like arranging the Philip family. It seemed that it would not be long before she would regain power.
Lilith raised her chin proudly with a bright smile on her face, as noble as a queen.
But in the shadows, a man stood there, arms folded across his chest, a treacherous smile on his face, saying, "Women in power are different. Even their walk exudes a sense of valor."
Glancing at Join, Lilith straightened her back and said, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Join shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm just smoking a cigarette here, do you want one?"
Of course Lilith could smell what Join was holding. After taking a deep look at it, she felt an infinite desire.
Seeing Lilith's reaction, Join laughed triumphantly in his heart.
Humph, no matter how proud she is, isn't she still a puppet living under the influence of drugs? A delicate flower on the surface, but in reality, it is already corrupt!
After hesitating for a moment, Lilith reached out to take the cigarette, then lit it with Join's lighter and took a deep breath.
With just this one bite, Lilith felt like every part of her body was burning. It felt so good!
Lilith gently exhaled the smoke from her mouth, leaned against the column, squinted at Join, and said, "You're doing great. Just keep helping me collect this brand of cigarettes, and I'll reward you!"
From Lilith's commanding tone, it seemed as if the relationship between the two of them was no longer a cooperative one. If it had been the previous Join, he would have been furious and would have confronted Lilith to clarify things. But now, he no longer cared about it, a playful smile playing on his lips.
Bent down and saluted Lilith, Join said like a gentleman with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Lilith."
Lilith put out the cigarette reluctantly and no longer looked at Join. She walked away with her head held high as if nothing had happened.
Looking at Lilith's enchanting back, Join snorted, "It seems that the brat was right. This woman is indeed not on the same page with me. If I still stubbornly wait for her, I'm afraid I'll die a very ugly death."
He looked away and walked straight to his room.
But before he entered the door, Join saw an old man standing there with an anxious look on his face.
"Who are you looking for?"
Hearing the voice, Lao Fang turned around and saw that it was Join, so he said anxiously: "Join, Xuan'er is sick, please go and see him!"
Is this guy okay? He comes here in such a high profile, isn't he afraid of being discovered?
Join frowned and said distantly, "Without the master's permission, I am not qualified to treat that child."
"Don't worry, the master has agreed," Lao Fang said, "Xuan'er has been running a fever for three consecutive days, his whole body is burning hot!"
Hearing this, Join frowned slightly and asked, "You just let him stay sick like that without taking any medicine?"
"I have taken it, but it has no effect at all. I have asked the master to let you see him, and the master has agreed. Please come with me quickly, I am afraid it will be dangerous if it is any later!"
Join walked into the room and packed his medicine box. As he walked, he asked, "Of all the doctors out there, why did you come to me?"
"Because Xuan'er kept calling your name when he had a high fever."
Damn it, this brat is just asking for trouble!
Join frowned, thinking that if Xiao Jincheng knew about his private contact with Xuan'er, he would definitely become suspicious. That old fox would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go. If he suspected someone, there would be no good days in the future!
Thinking this in his heart, Join resented Qi Xuan'er even more. Unfortunately, he couldn't kill him at this moment, otherwise he could hide away in peace.
However, just because she couldn't do anything doesn't mean Lilith couldn't do anything either. As long as she whispered in that woman's ear, she would definitely want the child to disappear.
Join walked like this, thinking secretly, and unknowingly he was already in front of Xuan'er's room door.
Raising his hand to open the door, Lao Fang quickly walked to the bedside, bent over, and called softly: "Xuan'er, the doctor is here and will be able to see you soon."
Xuan'er's face flushed red, and her beautiful eyes slowly opened, lifeless. She turned her gaze slowly and saw Join behind Lao Fang. She opened her mouth to say something, but her voice was too hoarse to make a sound.
Join was afraid that others would know the secret between the two of them, so he quickly said, "I don't like people disturbing me when I'm treating patients!"
Lao Fang withdrew his hand awkwardly and said, "Then I'll go wait outside. Join, please keep a close eye on him. Xuan'er is still young, so make sure he doesn't suffer any side effects."
