Chapter 834: I Will Help You Get Rid of Li Xiao
Half an hour later—the car stopped outside the villa gate.
When Cai Xiaotang got out of the car, she was still pouting, muttering under her breath, "I'm so mad!"
Li Xiao put his arm around her as they entered, finding her like this incredibly cute, and hurriedly soothed her: "There's no need to be angry because of that kind of person. Why not think about something happy, like... I'll accompany you to that restaurant you've been wanting to go to for a big meal tomorrow?"
"That's something you already promised me you'd do!"
Cai Xiaotang felt a bit better after hearing his words.
Immediately after, she saw a figure walk in from the entrance of the backyard.
"Li Xiao, Xiao Tang, you've returned together."
Luo Wanwan watched their intimate movements, her fingernails digging sharply into her palms.
"Mm."
Li Xiao gave a response.
Cai Xiaotang did not speak; she simply smiled at Luo Wanwan and then went up the stairs with Li Xiao.
Luo Wanwan stood where she was, motionless, listening to the sound of their voices fading into the distance, her expression turning gloomy bit by bit.
Just now, she had actually been standing at the entrance the whole time.
She had also heard how Li Xiao was coaxing Cai Xiaotang.
Why?
Hadn't Li Xiao already seen Cai Xiaotang meeting with Li Beichen?
Could it be that he didn't have even the slightest suspicion toward her?
Even if it were just to put on a show for others to see!
Luo Wanwan's eyes were filled with unwillingness, her thoughts gradually drifting away.
In the past...
It wasn't as if such things hadn't happened before.
She had been inexplicably splashed with dirty water.
Although Li Xiao believed her, in order to give others an explanation, he had still suspended all her duties and even forbidden her from going out.
Not until everything was investigated clearly later on.
Why was it that when it came to Cai Xiaotang, she possessed "special privileges"?
Not only did Li Xiao not blame her, but he was also going to take her out tomorrow and coax her into being happy?
Just because she married Li Xiao?
But they had only been married for half a year!
If it weren't for that incident back then, the position of Li Xiao's wife should have been hers!
These treatments should also have been hers!
Luo Wanwan took a deep breath, lifted her eyes to look in the direction of the stairs, and gritted her teeth.
It doesn't matter...
It's almost time.
She would soon be able to be with Li Xiao.
Upstairs—Li Xiao sent Cai Xiaotang back to her room and soothed her for a while longer before going to the study alone.
Today's events were truly somewhat suspicious; he still needed to think about them carefully.
Every part of the plan had been arranged too perfectly.
He had discovered that Li Beichen was in contact with someone of unknown identity, which was why he wanted to dig deeper.
As a result, he had successfully dug up that he might meet with the other party.
And the person who appeared today just happened to be Cai Xiaotang.
All of this was clearly meticulously planned by someone!
If it were Linke...
Li Xiao rubbed his brow with some exhaustion, pondered for two seconds, picked up his phone, and sent a message.
Not long after, Laoqi knocked open the study door.
"Xiuluo, you summoned me."
"Mm."
Li Xiao nodded.
"What do you think about tonight's events?"
He asked.
Laoqi paused slightly, not speaking.
After a two-second pause, he then said: "Tonight's events are suspicious; someone wanted to frame the Madam, but..."
He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence.
Tonight's events would definitely be known by others.
According to the rules, regardless of the reason, Cai Xiaotang should now be "under supervision."
Until they investigated the matter clearly.
Yet she was not a member of the "Dark Gate."
Li Xiao saw his hesitation and simply took the words over himself.
"Xiao Tang does not need to have her movements restricted. Tell the others that it is my decision. If anything happens, I will take full responsibility. Also, you are usually the one who stays behind to protect her the most; during this period, pay more attention to whether anyone is approaching her or contacting her. Also, keep an eye on the villa to see if there are any abnormal signal fluctuations or the possibility of someone having installed eavesdropping devices."
"Yes."
Laoqi immediately agreed.
"Mm, go get busy."
Li Xiao didn't say anything more and waved his hand.
It was just that he still felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.
Li Beichen shouldn't be contacting Xiao Tang again...
But, no one could say for sure.
If all of this was truly premeditated, then he must have some leverage that had fallen into the other party's hands, which was why he was cooperating like this.
What could it be...
Downstairs—Luo Wanwan stood in the pitch-black room, with only her brand-new mobile phone emitting a faint white light.
"Your movements are too slow."
A man's voice came from the receiver, sounding somewhat distorted, as if he were using a voice changer.
"I'm sorry, I will be as fast as possible."
Luo Wanwan apologized, her tone full of respect.
"Mm."
The man on the other end of the phone responded, then spoke again: "These two people are indeed not easy to deal with, but we believe you have the ability to eliminate them; hurry up."
After saying this, he hung up the phone directly.
The moment she heard the busy signal, Luo Wanwan suddenly let out a long breath!
As if she had only just remembered to breathe, she gasped for air, a sharp light flashing in the depths of her eyes.
There wasn't much time left...
She had to resolve this as quickly as possible!
If she couldn't complete it, then they would have someone else do it!
Thinking this, Luo Wanwan suddenly grabbed her phone again and quickly dialed a number.
Very quickly—the call was answered.
"What is it?"
The person who answered the phone this time was a young man.
Luo Wanwan was in no mood to exchange pleasantries with him and went straight to the point: "I don't want to drag this out anymore. I can cooperate with you to eliminate Li Xiao, but you must also do me a favor: make Cai Xiaotang disappear from this world forever!"
"Oh?"
The man seemed to have heard something interesting, his tone rising for a moment.
Then he jokingly teased: "Eliminate Li Xiao? Can you bear to? Don't you like him very much? Or... are you plotting something else?"
The other party's tone was full of probing, clearly not believing her.
Luo Wanwan's eyes flashed, and she gritted her teeth and said directly.
"Linke, don't think you understand women. Li Xiao doesn't love me anymore; do you think I would be kind enough to watch him fly off and live happily with another woman? Stop joking. Remember, it is you who need my cooperation now, not me who needs yours. Other than doing as I say, you have no choice."
"OK, anything else?"
Linke agreed without a second thought.
Luo Wanwan did not answer and hung up the phone directly.
She tossed the phone aside and lowered her eyes to glance at her leg.
The gauze had long since been removed, exposing the hideous wound.
The wound had already scabbed over.
As long as she recuperated carefully for a while longer, it should be able to recover.
Luo Wanwan blinked, suddenly stood up, and took two steps toward her suitcase.
Her pace was fast, as if the wound on her leg had not caused any impact at all.
She fished a thin short blade out from the lining of the suitcase.
The next second—she expressionlessly sliced open her own wound.
Red liquid dripped onto the floor.
Luo Wanwan, however, had no reaction; only the corners of her lips slowly curled upward.
This way, she could continue to stay here...
