Chapter 797: Li Xiao, You Are Cunning to the Core
Li Xiao nodded in satisfaction, then followed his subordinate upstairs at a leisurely pace.
Just as they reached the top of the stairs, they saw Cai Xiaotang standing dumbfounded outside her room, looking as if her soul had left her body.
"What's wrong?"
Li Xiao's gaze flickered for a moment as he walked over.
He then saw the scene inside the room and couldn't help but be stunned as well.
The room, which had originally been bright and spacious, was now in a state of utter ruin.
It looked as if it had been blown up by something; the entire room was charred black and filled with smoke and dust, and the bed and carpet were practically beyond recognition.
Even the cabinet to the side had not been spared, covered in unsightly smoke stains.
"Laoqi, what is the meaning of this?"
Li Xiao shot a sharp glare at him, his tone tinged with helplessness.
Although he had instructed someone to "make a mess" of Cai Xiaotang's room, he hadn't said to turn it into this!
Laoqi was startled, and seeing both Li Xiao and Cai Xiaotang staring straight at him, he hurriedly explained.
"Uh... it's like this, we got some new... Micro-bomb a couple of days ago, and while I was studying it upstairs, it accidentally fell onto the balcony of the Madam's room, and then..."
He couldn't continue his fabrication and looked at Li Xiao with a troubled expression.
Cai Xiaotang was even more shocked, finally coming to her senses, and asked incredulously: "So my room... was blown up like this?"
"Uh... yes... Madam, I'm sorry..."
Since the words were already out, Laoqi could only nod along with her explanation.
Cai Xiaotang: "..."
Is this villa really this dangerous?
It's a good thing she hasn't been living at home lately!
Otherwise, if she had happened to be in the room, wouldn't her life have been lost!
Li Xiao was also somewhat speechless, but given the current state of the room... it was indeed, as he had intended, no longer fit for living.
He gave Laoqi a subtle look.
Laoqi immediately caught the hint and said: "Madam, rest assured, such a thing will absolutely not happen a second time! Dangerous items are not usually kept in the villa; this time... it was only because you and Li Xiao were away that the brothers brought them here temporarily. It won't happen again..."
Li Xiao also chimed in to persuade her: "Xiao Tang, don't be angry. I will have someone clean up the room for you, though I'm afraid it will take some time..."
"..."
"I'm not angry..."
Cai Xiaotang shook her head blankly.
She just felt that having her room blown up was... a bit too surreal.
Then, she suddenly realized something and hurriedly asked: "Then where am I staying tonight? Another room?"
Li Xiao's eyes lit up at these words, and the corners of his lips curled up involuntarily.
She finally asked the important question...
"Ahem!"
He coughed deliberately.
Laoqi immediately replied: "Madam, Li Xiao's room is right next door; you can move in there directly now..."
"Him and I..."
Cai Xiaotang's gaze flickered for a moment, and a subtle feeling suddenly rose in her heart.
Although everyone here had always known that the two of them slept in separate rooms after getting married.
Yet, no one would ever take the initiative to pry into Li Xiao's affairs.
Now, they assumed it was only natural for the two of them to live in the same room.
But why did she feel like something about this was strange?
Could this guy Li Xiao be doing this on purpose?
Cai Xiaotang thought to herself, her eyes unable to help but scan Li Xiao with suspicion.
But then she felt it was unlikely.
Who would blow up their own house!
And the furniture inside was so expensive...
Thinking of the prices Li Xiao had mentioned when she first moved in, Cai Xiaotang felt a pang of heartache.
She sighed and said helplessly: "First... arrange another room for me..."
"Madam, we don't have any other rooms here."
Laoqi replied immediately.
Cai Xiaotang was taken aback.
Then she heard the other party continue: "Besides these two, the other rooms upstairs are filled with things... As for the other floors, each brother has a room, and further up is Li Xiao's study and the place where the brothers usually train. Anyway, you and Li Xiao are husband and wife, isn't it quite normal to live together?"
Cai Xiaotang: "..."
That sounded like it had some merit...
But she had finally managed to move out of the Old Residence!
Was she going to have to sleep with that guy Li Xiao every day again?
Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath, completely at a loss for what to say.
Seeing her silence, Laoqi immediately gave Li Xiao a look expecting credit.
See!
He told him that when he handles things, Li Xiao can rest easy!
Although she did not understand why they still had to sleep in separate rooms after getting married, for now, they could only sleep in the same room!
"Alright, you may go down first."
Li Xiao had long been holding back laughter until he was internally injured, and he hurriedly waved his hand to let Laoqi leave.
Laoqi hurriedly turned around and left, slipping away at lightning speed.
Li Xiao then took the opportunity to take Cai Xiaotang's hand and lead her into his room.
Cai Xiaotang had not yet recovered her senses when she was pulled in by him just like that.
She then reacted abruptly, her gaze immediately looking straight at the large bed in the center of the room.
This... this is a bit too big, isn't it?
But it just so happens that one person can sleep on each side...
Cai Xiaotang thought to herself, not realizing at all that she had already tacitly accepted the fact that she would be living with him.
"What are you thinking about? Is my bed very good-looking?"
Li Xiao suddenly asked with "ill intent."
Cai Xiaotang was greatly startled and hurriedly came back to her senses.
"It is indeed... quite good-looking..."
She answered offhandedly, and after finishing, she wore a look of helplessness, wishing she could lock her own mouth.
What was she saying!
Why did it feel like she was implying something!
Thirty!
"Um... I'll go see if the clothes in the walk-in closet are still usable!"
Cai Xiaotang threw down this sentence and turned to run.
Li Xiao watched her "flee" with amusement, his mood so wonderful he felt like he was going to fly.
Although... the method of achieving his goal was somewhat unexpected.
But the result was the same as what he had thought anyway.
That little pufferfish would not be able to escape!
On the other side—Jiang Baobao had spent the whole morning accompanying Li Laoyezi with the three little ones, and in the afternoon, she finally returned to her room with Li Beijue.
The three little ones had originally wanted to stay behind to accompany Li Laoyezi.
But for some reason, they insisted on following the two of them back to the room.
On the way, they kept whispering to each other, mysteriously plotting something or other.
Then, as soon as they entered the door, Mobai quickly closed it and pulled Jiang Baobao's hand into the bedroom inside.
Yanbao and Tiantian also pulled Li Beijue in.
Jiang Baobao looked at the three little treasures before her with amusement and hurriedly asked: "Speak, you three have been whispering and plotting all the way here, what exactly do you want to do?"
As soon as her voice fell, she heard Mobai suddenly lower his voice and ask in a small, curious voice: "Mommy, you still haven't told us how children get into Mommy's tummy. Isn't this a secret? So we have to be quiet..."
