Chapter 464: Get rid of it quickly
"Got it. Next time you come, let me know in advance and I'll pick you up at the door the night before. How about that? That's sincere enough, isn't it?"
"That's better. How did you get injured? Do you know who did it?" Zhou Lingfei's face became serious. She looked at the two bandaged areas on Li Xiaoxiao's arm and asked with concern.
"Probably he knows. Si Yi has already gone to investigate, and I think there will be results soon." Li Xiaoxiao pulled her to sit at the table, and soon a maid served them tea.
"Who do you suspect?" Gu Feiyan sat down next to Zhou Lingfei.
Looking at their actions, Li Xiaoxiao felt amused but did not show it on her face: "Maybe Cheng Yun'er did it."
"Why? You don't have any contact with her, so why would she hire someone to assassinate you?" Zhou Lingfei and Gu Feiyan looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other's eyes.
"A long time ago, she regarded me as an imaginary enemy, so she wanted to get rid of me."
"It's because, Si..." Zhou Lingfei thought for a long time and finally thought of a possibility. She said halfway when she seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Yes, that's the reason, and it's not her first time." Although Zhou Lingfei didn't finish her words, Li Xiaoxiao knew what she meant.
"You are talking about Si Chengxu, right?" Gu Feiyan interrupted suddenly.
Zhou Lingfei looked at him in confusion. She didn't expect that Gu Feiyan also knew about it.
In fact, Zhou Lingfei was also guessing, because Si Chengxu's different attitude towards Li Xiaoxiao made her suspicious for a while, but Li Xiaoxiao never told her about this, so she didn't mention it.
I didn't expect that there is something going on here.
"It was because of him that Cheng Yun'er mistook me for her imaginary enemy, so she wanted to get rid of me as soon as possible." Li Xiaoxiao admitted it openly. It was nothing. What was there to hide?
Gu Feiyan didn't say anything else. His understanding of Li Xiaoxiao was refreshed. Li Xiaoxiao was excellent in all aspects and very smart, but emotionally, she was extremely slow.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see Si Chengxu's attitude towards her, but how come she didn't notice it at all?
Also, I had given Li Xiaoxiao some small gifts before, but she refused to accept any of them. Maybe she really didn't know what he meant.
Looking back now, it doesn’t matter whether he knows or not, because he now has Zhou Lingfei and she understands his feelings.
"I have been at odds with Cheng Yun'er since I was a child. I think she is hypocritical and always wears a mask. I didn't expect that she is not only hypocritical, but also so cruel. She can fight for the person she likes, but why does she have to be so cruel to others? Isn't she afraid of retribution?"
Upon learning that the person was Cheng Yuner, Zhou Lingfei sneered and looked down on her even more.
"She thinks she is the most beautiful woman in the world, and she must get whatever she likes, so I became her target."
"She's really going too far. We can't just let this matter go." Zhou Lingfei was so angry that she almost slammed the table and stood up.
"Look how angry you are. Of course you can't just let it go. Harming others will eventually harm yourself. She will get her comeuppance sooner or later." Li Xiaoxiao spoke implicitly, and it was obvious that she had already thought of a way to deal with Cheng Yuner.
"Okay, I support you. I've disliked her for a long time. Her arrogant look is disgusting." Zhou Lingfei raised both hands in agreement. If possible, she would also like to join in dealing with Cheng Yuner.
Just thinking about how Cheng Yuner was humiliated makes me feel happy.
Just then, Si Yi came back from getting information and glanced at Gu Feiyan and Zhou Lingfei.
"Just say whatever you want to say." Li Xiaoxiao naturally understood his concerns. Zhou Lingfei and Gu Feiyan were not outsiders, so there was nothing to hide.
"Yes, those people last night were indeed sent by Cheng Yuner." After getting Li Xiaoxiao's affirmative response, Si Yi told Li Xiaoxiao the news he had obtained.
"Is there any evidence to prove that Cheng Yuner did it?" Li Xiaoxiao quickly grasped the key point of the matter.
"Here is a handwritten letter from Cheng Yuner." Si Yi took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Li Xiaoxiao.
He unfolded the letter, read ten lines at a glance, quickly finished reading the content, and then handed the letter to Zhou Lingfei.
"It was really her who did it. With this letter, we can report her to the government and let the prefect punish her." After reading the letter, Zhou Lingfei said angrily.
"No, that would be too easy for her. Her identity is there. Even if the prefect knew about it, since my injuries were minor, the final result would be just a matter of picking up the high and putting down the low." Li Xiaoxiao quickly analyzed the pros and cons of the matter in his mind.
"Then what do you want to do?" Zhou Lingfei asked puzzledly.
"Of course, it is to destroy the thing she cares about most." A dark light flashed in Li Xiaoxiao's black eyes, and an evil smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Li Xiaoxiao didn't go out for three days in a row. Upon hearing the news, Cheng Yun'er felt much better. She knew that Li Xiaoxiao must have been poisoned and was being nursed at home.
Even if the poison doesn't kill her this time, it will definitely make her suffer.
"Xiangling, prepare the sedan and go out for a walk." I was in a good mood and wanted to go out. I haven't been out for several days. I wonder if the Jade Building has any new models of jewelry?
Soon, an exquisite sedan chair swayed out of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The sedan bearers were two young and strong men, walking steadily. Xiangling followed beside them, and two maids followed behind.
Several people walked towards the most prosperous street in the capital.
Qilin Street is a wide road with a smooth surface. The houses on both sides are three stories high and are very magnificently built.
People were coming and going on the street, most of them were rich young men and women dressed gorgeously, all of them dressed in bright and beautiful clothes.
There are many shops and various business projects, including restaurants, inns, silver shops, pawn shops, and cloth shops.
It is located in a prosperous area, and the goods sold are naturally excellent, so this place has become the favorite place for the young ladies in Beijing.
Although the prices here are not cheap and the same things are much more expensive than outside, there is still a constant stream of people coming to buy.
It’s like the modern brand effect, the same thing feels different when purchased from different places.
A daughter of a big family like Cheng Yun'er is naturally a frequent customer. She is generous and always returns with a lot of goods, so many shop owners here recognize her.
Cheng Yuner really enjoyed the feeling of being looked up to by others, as it was the only feeling that matched her status and position.
Soon they arrived at Qilin Street. Cheng Yun'er asked the sedan chair bearer to stop the sedan chair and go out to buy things. She decided to visit a few more stores and asked the sedan chair bearer to find a place to wait.
So Cheng Yun'er took Xiang Ling and two maids and started strolling on Qilin Street.
What she didn't know was that Li Xiaoxiao had already received the news and had been waiting for a long time.
