Reborn and fleeing for his life, he unexpectedly knocks on the door of the prince of Beijing's

When Wen Shengsheng got home, it was already 12:30 pm.

Gong Xiaochen gave them all a half-day off today, so she doesn't need to go to the company anymore.

The house is very clean, and the refrigerator is stocked with fresh vegetables and some ready-to-eat foods that can be heated in the microwave.

Someone must have delivered it specifically for this purpose.

Currently, only she and Xi Yu have the keys to the Jiuru Mansion.

To verify her suspicions, Wen Shengsheng went to the storage room, which was filled with bags, shoes, and clothes that Xi Yu had given her, all of which she had categorized and packed up.

She has recently sold some of them.

But now, they've all disappeared.

Seeing this, she had no choice but to go to the bedroom and walk-in closet, where she saw that the items had been taken out and neatly hung in the walk-in closet, as if waiting for their owner to enjoy them at any time.

She opened the bedside table, which was filled with candies and chocolates, all of which she often ate...

Xi Yu has been here...

She was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant by doing this.

Should we slap someone and then give them a treat?

After quickly cooking a bowl of noodles, she sat down in the dining room to eat.

Gong Xiaochen went to the Su family early this morning, and they should have finished their talks by now.

Although she knew it would be best if she didn't get involved, she still sent a WeChat message on her own.

"Is everything going well?"

Even after they finished eating the noodles, Gong Xiaochen still hadn't replied to her message.

She couldn't help but feel a little worried.

After cleaning up the dishes, she opened the French windows in the living room to let in some fresh air and sat on the balcony to enjoy the breeze.

The wind was light, gently sweeping by, bringing a refreshing coolness.

About an hour later, Gong Xiaochen suddenly called.

Upon seeing the caller ID, Wen Shengsheng immediately picked it up to answer.

"Young Master Gong, how did it go?"

"It went smoothly." He sounded quite relaxed. "He was hospitalized. I went to the Su family's house and had a fight with them, then went to the hospital and slapped him twice more. I also treated his wife to tea while I was there."

Wen Shengsheng: "...Can you be serious for once?"

"Which eye of yours saw me being indecent?"

"Both eyes saw it."

Just then, a gentle female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Xiao Chen, you forgot your coat."

Gong Xiaochen moved the phone away slightly and replied, "Thank you."

The woman's voice continued, "Why are you being so polite with me? Remember to send me a message to let me know you've arrived safely in Beijing this afternoon."

"it is good."

"Beijing is much colder than Haicheng, so remember not to forget anything and wear warm clothes."

"Oh, I see."

Then came a very soft laugh.

Wen Shengsheng's hand gripping the phone suddenly tightened.

She wasn't voice-sensitive, but this voice made her think that the woman on the other end of the phone must be very gentle and beautiful.

A moment later, Gong Xiaochen finally remembered that they were still on the phone and picked it up again.

"You're so young, and your eyesight is already failing. I'll have Chen Ze get you a pair of glasses."

"Hehe." Wen Shengsheng twitched her lips. "There's no need for that. My eyesight is perfectly fine. If Young Master Gong doesn't want to talk about it, I won't ask anymore. Bye."

Gong Xiaochen seemed somewhat surprised and said in a deep voice, "It's not a matter of whether it went smoothly or not. You've met Su Rui yourself. He's a madman who dares to do anything and is lawless. Ordinary tricks are useless against him."

"The Su family can't do anything about him either. If I want to subdue him, I can only use my own methods to beat him into submission and make him never dare to resist again."

They dare to do anything, they're lawless...

Aren't you the same way...?

However, Wen Shengsheng was no longer interested in these things.

Her tone softened. "Okay, I understand. You can get back to work now, Young Master Gong."

Before Gong Xiaochen could say goodbye, she hung up the phone.

They even said they went to the hospital, beat up Su Rui, and invited Su Rui's wife for tea.

Oh, how ridiculous.

He's clearly gone out on a date with a girl!

It was almost 1:30. Wen Shengsheng put aside these unpleasant things, closed the window, and turned on her computer to check the stock market.

During the conversation, he also talked with Li Chuan about the dinner party that evening.

Then I understood what was going on.

The Xi and Li families recently had a real estate project to collaborate on. He Fang and her husband had privately communicated with Xi Maokun, hoping that the two of them could confirm their romantic relationship. This would be more beneficial to the development and profitability of the two families' project, both internally and externally.

We need to finalize this matter tonight.

This news brought Wen Shengsheng mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.

The internal power struggles within the Xi family are fierce, especially since Xi Ruifeng is now on his deathbed and always thinks about having one last fight before he passes away, which makes his relationship with Xi Yu particularly strained.

Getting closer to Li Chuan at this time could greatly help her escape this circle.

Conversely, once they go public with their relationship, the next step might be pressure from both families to get married.

As she was hesitating about what to do that night, Li Chuan told her some news that brought her mixed feelings.

"My relationship with Ruth has progressed, but she can't be with me right now."

Wen Shengsheng asked, puzzled, "Why?"

“She is in trouble now. If this trouble is not resolved, she will not want to be with me, for fear of being a burden to me.”

Halfway through his sentence, Li Chuan suddenly lowered his voice, "You can help with this matter. Let's talk about it in detail when we meet tonight."

Can she help?

Wen Shengsheng always felt that things weren't that simple.
