Chapter 242: The Black-Bellied Li Beijue

"Zheng Bo? What's wrong?"

Jiang Baobao asked subconsciously.

Immediately, she heard Zheng Bo say with a troubled expression, "Miss Jiang, your car..."

Zheng Bo said halfway, the expression on his face gradually becoming more and more awkward, but he still bit the bullet and continued, "Just now, workers came to maintain the roof of the second floor of the villa, and as a result, they accidentally dropped a tool bag, which happened to hit the roof of your car, leaving a dent. I'm afraid... it will have to be sent for repairs again..."

"A tool bag?"

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao was stunned for a moment, subconsciously walking with large strides toward the door, hurrying to her car.

Immediately after, she saw at a glance that the roof of her car had indeed been smashed into an ugly, large dent!

Beside it were tools scattered on the ground, all of them heavy hammers, mallets, and the like!

"This..."

Jiang Baobao stood in place, speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Could she be any more unlucky lately?

Should she go find a fortune teller to calculate her luck?

It hasn't even been a month, and her car has been accidentally damaged twice!

"Miss Jiang... I am truly sorry. I have already told the young master about this matter. The cost of repairing the car will be covered by Li Mansion..."

Zheng Bo walked over from behind Jiang Baobao at some point, his tone full of apology.

Hearing this, Jiang Baobao snapped back to reality and hurriedly waved her hand: "It's okay, after all, it wasn't intentional. Then let's send it for repairs first. Next time I..."

Jiang Baobao paused for two seconds, then continued helplessly: "I'll park in a different place next time..."

As she spoke, she sighed in her heart and took out her phone to check the time.

It's a good thing Xiao Tang is coming to pick her up today!

Otherwise, she definitely wouldn't have made it to the banquet!

Just as Jiang Baobao was thinking this, the next second, she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

"I'll have someone take your car for repairs in a while. Just take my car today."

Li Beijue's cold voice rang out, making Jiang Baobao slightly stunned.

She turned around subconsciously and saw the person behind her in a suit and leather shoes, and only then did she suddenly realize.

That's right!

How could she have forgotten that Li Beijue was also going to attend the Mu Family's banquet today!

Jiang Baobao's eyes flickered for a moment, but she refused without thinking: "No need, today..."

Before she could finish her sentence, a "beep-beep-beep" car horn suddenly sounded in the distance.

Jiang Baobao turned her head to look subconsciously, and seeing that familiar car, she immediately smiled.

"Xiao Tang is here to pick me up, I'm leaving first."

She dropped this sentence and then, without looking back, walked toward the gate of Li Mansion.

Li Beijue was rarely stunned for a moment, standing in place watching Jiang Baobao walk away, a hint of helplessness showing in his eyes.

"Young Master..."

Zheng Bo was also somewhat unable to laugh or cry. Thinking of how Li Beijue had specifically instructed him to "accidentally" break Jiang Baobao's car, he helplessly advised: "Young Master, next time, let's use a different method. Even an old man like me knows that even without a car, one can still go out..."

Hearing this, Li Beijue felt somewhat depressed.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard Zheng Bo ask cautiously: "Young Master, if I may be so bold, regarding Miss Jiang..."

The old man's eyes held some confusion; thinking of the last incident and this one, he really couldn't fathom what exactly Li Beijue was trying to do.

Li Beijue pondered for two seconds after hearing this, then replied: "Don't worry, I have a sense of propriety in what I do. For now, don't tell Grandfather about these things."

"Alright, I understand."

Zheng Bo nodded and did not ask any further.

On the other side, Cai Xiaotang had already sped onto the road.

Jiang Baobao was complaining to her about her recent string of bad luck.

"Do I really have a jinx with everything related to Li Beijue? You tell me, my car was parked perfectly fine there; once it was splashed with paint, and once it was smashed into a big dent. Should I really go find a master to calculate my luck and get rid of this bad fortune?"

Jiang Baobao muttered in a low voice, and as she spoke, she had already opened her phone and was quickly searching for nearby temples.

Hearing this, Cai Xiaotang couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing, and replied casually: "Then you have indeed been very unlucky lately..."

As she said this, she suddenly thought of something, immediately changing the subject, her tone hesitant: "You say... could it be that that dog of a man finds you an eyesore and deliberately found someone to do it?"

Cai Xiaotang had inadvertently hit upon the truth, but she had guessed the reason for Li Beijue's actions wrong.

Jiang Baobao waved her hand, speechless, and replied without thinking: "How is that possible? He's not a primary school student; is it worth it for him to do such a thing to disgust me? That would be too childish!"

Jiang Baobao did not suspect this possibility at all, and as she spoke, she sighed helplessly.

Cai Xiaotang immediately changed the subject tactfully, turning to ask about some matters related to the Team's work.

The two chatted leisurely, and an hour later, the car finally stopped near a villa that was on par with Li Mansion.

There were already many luxury cars parked here, and the two couldn't find a place to park their car further up for a while.

Jiang Baobao pushed the car door open and got out, seeing many people walking toward the entrance of the villa.

"This is it. Doesn't it look like it's filled with an air of debauchery?"

Cai Xiaotang said coolly, her tone full of disdain.

Jiang Baobao knew she was reluctant to come here, so she could only smile and shake her head, linking her arm with hers.

"Since we're here, we agreed yesterday that we'd stay quiet and do nothing. You must not cause trouble! But if anyone bullies you, we will never swallow our pride!"

Jiang Baobao smiled and pinched Cai Xiaotang's cheek, wanting to comfort her.

Only then did Cai Xiaotang perk up a bit, gave the villa not far away a disdainful look, and pulled Jiang Baobao forward.

But having only walked forward a few steps, she saw several people standing at the entrance of the villa, talking.

Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang stopped in their tracks at the same time, and instantly frowned together.

"Lu Qing'er's family? Why would they be here?"

Cai Xiaotang asked, somewhat puzzled, a trace of hostility instantly staining the depths of her eyes.

Jiang Baobao pondered for two seconds, then also spoke up, puzzled: "Logically speaking... given the status of the Lu Family, how could they possibly have any connection to the Mu Family? Does your family have any cooperation with the Lu Family?"

"How would I know? I don't care about these things." Cai Xiaotang shrugged indifferently, and the next second, she regained her composure, pulling Jiang Baobao along to continue walking forward without changing her expression.

She said unhurriedly, "Why bother with her? Just look at what place this is; if she dares to provoke me here, I'll make her regret it!"
