Chapter 2247: You Have Already Done Very Well

Being able to receive praise from Su Kexuan shows that the image of Jiang Mobai in her heart is quietly changing.

It is said that water drops can pierce stone.

Isn't affection the same way?

Moreover, Su Kexuan is not at all hard-hearted toward Jiang Mobai.

The task now is actually how to make Su Kexuan stay here a little longer...

Jiang Baobao lowered her eyes.

Suddenly, a flash of brightness crossed the bottom of her eyes.

Got it!

Later that day—

Su Kexuan finished tidying up and prepared to sleep.

But just as her head touched the pillow, her phone rang.

Thinking there might be some emergency at work, she sat up immediately.

But seeing the name on the phone screen, Su Kexuan's gaze softened again.

After answering, she said with a smile, "It's this late already, why is the pregnant woman still not asleep?"

The one who made this call was Wei Yangyang.

She said, "I heard from Mom that your place was flooded, and it's quite serious. I've handled design cases like this before; why don't I help you come up with a design plan?"

"Sure, how long will the construction take?"

"Not too long, just two months. But you can't move into a newly renovated house immediately; it needs to air out for at least three months."

The smile on Su Kexuan's face froze.

She confirmed again, "So, I still have to live at Jiang Mobai's place for nearly half a year?"

"Yes."

"That's too long..."

"There's no other way; to ensure safety, we have to sacrifice some time."

After Wei Yangyang finished speaking, there was no response from the other end of the line.

This made Wei Yangyang feel a bit uncertain.

Hesitating for a moment, she decided to give the other party some space to think: "Do you want to consider it a bit more?"

"No need, just help me design the plan first."

The unexpected answer made Wei Yangyang feel relieved.

However, an abrupt voice suddenly appeared beside her: "This isn't being designed for free!"

Wei Yangyang was startled.

Then, she hurriedly made a shushing gesture to Li Xingyan.

Afterward, she emphasized to Su Kexuan, "Don't listen to Xingyan's nonsense; this is just a small matter, no need to talk about money."

"He isn't talking nonsense; I should pay you for your services. When Xie Wanyi helped me before, I also gave him a fee. Business is business, after all."

"But..."

"The design fee must be accepted, otherwise I won't trouble you."

"Sigh, I really can't win against you. Alright then, tell me your preferences, or if you have any special requirements."

"I'll need to think about that a bit more."

"Don't rush, you can also refer to some renderings online."

"Okay."

As Su Kexuan said this, she yawned.

Hearing this, Wei Yangyang said considerately, "You should rest now; you've been exhausted today."

"Mm, let's talk another day."

Su Kexuan hung up the phone and burrowed into her quilt.

She was truly sleepy, and before long, she drifted off into a hazy slumber.

On the other side, however, Wei Yangyang let out a long breath.

Afterward, she looked at Li Xingyan beside her and complained, "You, why did you have to interrupt just now?"

"That's what makes it feel real. Su Kexuan is very guarded; a natural, vivid conversation makes her believe that we really want to help her."

"I did want to help, too!"

After saying this, Wei Yangyang muttered to herself, "Though, with a little bit of an agenda."

After Jiang Baobao returned home, she found Wei Yangyang.

She wanted Wei Yangyang to become the designer for Su Kexuan's house.

In this way, the handover time could be extended.

It was also equivalent to secretly helping Jiang Mobai out.

Wei Yangyang took on this responsibility without hesitation.

But thinking about her performance just now...

She sighed, "Actually, I could have done even better."

"You've already done very well; it's that guy Mobai who has to make such a big fuss just to pursue the woman he likes."

Speaking of making a big fuss...

Wei Yangyang tilted her head to look at Li Xingyan and retorted, "Then back then, didn't someone also make a big fuss?"

That someone pulled Wei Yangyang into his arms, pecked her forehead, and laughed, "But I suffered through it and came out on top, so I can evaluate him from the position of a victor."

"Perhaps, Mobai will also have a day of success."

"Let's hope so."

Li Xingyan said, pulling a book from the bookshelf.

Looking at the cover, it was a collection of fairy tales.

This sort of thing should not have appeared in Li Xingyan's room.

Yet he not only took it out, but also solemnly opened the cover and said in a low voice, "It's time for a story."

In order to provide prenatal education for the child, as long as he wasn't working overtime, Li Xingyan would read fairy tales beside Wei Yangyang every night.

Who could have imagined that the decisive and swift Li Xingyan at the company would be so gentle while reading fairy tales at home?

Moreover, his stories had a particularly hypnotic effect.

After listening for a while, Wei Yangyang fell asleep.

Feeling the breathing of the person beside him gradually become light and even, Li Xingyan smiled.

He placed the fairy tale book on the table, then gently carried Wei Yangyang to the bed.

Carefully tucking in the corners of the quilt for Wei Yangyang, Li Xingyan kissed her lightly on the forehead.

Then he whispered, "Have a good dream!"

On the second floor of the teahouse, Xie Wanyi sat by the window.

He sipped tea alone, his every gesture revealing an air of nobility.

Before long, someone walked gracefully up the stairs.

Su Kexuan spotted Xie Wanyi at a glance; she walked straight over and sat down, leaning forward.

Taking the cup of tea Xie Wanyi handed over with her fair hand, Su Kexuan asked, "Calling me here suddenly, have you made a new discovery?"

"That's right. By monitoring the mobile phone of that technology company boss, I truly discovered that a mysterious person is contacting him."

As he spoke, Xie Wanyi handed over a file.

Having waited for so many days, Su Kexuan had been waiting for this very moment!

She couldn't wait to pick up the file and look at it.

But the moment she saw the photo, she revealed a look of sudden realization.

"What, you know him?"

While continuing to look at the file, Su Kexuan said, "Yes, a former business partner who parted ways due to differing philosophies. Of course, that is only what I believe."

"Then what does he think?"

"He feels that I betrayed everyone's ideals and that I am a traitor. Back then, one could say we parted on very bad terms."

After finishing the entire file, Su Kexuan placed the document on the table.

Then she sighed, "I just didn't expect that after not seeing him for so many years, his methods have become increasingly unsightly."

The information Xie Wanyi found was very detailed.

Although Su Kexuan had not seen that "friend" for many years, she could roughly understand his life just by relying on the information Xie Wanyi provided.

She also knew that the wealth he had accumulated over these years was obtained through unscrupulous means.

His actions had also become increasingly paranoid.

Su Kexuan felt a little wistful.

Xie Wanyi, however, was a bit puzzled: "If you had collaborated with him, I should have found it."

"You did find it; I previously collaborated with him anonymously. This 'Su Tian' here is me."

As she spoke, Su Kexuan tapped on a page of the file.

On it, the two characters "Su Tian" were indeed printed.

Xie Wanyi had seen them too.

But he had never connected this name with Su Kexuan.

Li Beijue's expression sank in an instant, and within those deep eyes, a storm seemed to be brewing, making one's blood run cold.
