After everyone left, Lian Xi looked at Lu's mother.

"Mom, what I just said should be fine. It won't cause you any trouble, right?" Lian Xi said worriedly.

He was so busy arguing with others that he completely forgot about Lu's mother standing beside him.

With a nervous heart, Lian Xi waited for Lu's mother's answer.

Unexpectedly, Mother Lu suddenly changed her usual dignified demeanor and said, "Xixi, you did a great job. I hated this relative in the first place, but I didn't expect you to do what I have always wanted to do today."

Hearing this, Lian Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

I thought Mother Lu was going to blame me.

After all, this kind of behavior is very shameful among wealthy families, especially for a family like Lu's mother's.

Mother Lu continued, "I have long known that woman and her niece have been eyeing you covetously, but due to my status and position, and the fact that they haven't made any mistakes, I have never had a reason to do anything. If you can help me teach them a lesson and make them back off, I will be very grateful."

Although Mother Lu's tone was very happy, Lian Xi always felt that something was strange, as if...

It seems that Lu's mother's attitude is rather strange, very different from usual.

Mother Lu did not notice Lian Xi's strange look. Instead, she took Lu Sili's hand and said, "After this matter is resolved, I can go abroad to recuperate with peace of mind."

Speaking of which, what Lian Xi did this time was simply a god-like assist!

"Yes, luckily I held back today, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with if someone caught me." Lian Xi was also glad that he did not act impulsively today.

The two chatted for a while, and then Mother Lu went to rest, leaving Lian Xi sitting alone in the living room in a daze.

What did Lu's mother mean just now?

Is she going abroad?

Lian Xi thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Lu Sili came to Lian Xi and called him softly, "Lian Xi?"

Lian Xi suddenly came back to her senses and looked at Lu Sili with a smile on her face, "What's wrong? Husband."

Lu Sili shook his head, "It's okay."

Seeing this, Lian Xi pinched Lu Sili's cheek, then stood up and said, "Let's go back to the room and take a nap."

Lian Xi and Lu Sili came to their room on the second floor together. Because Lian Xi liked the blue series, the whole bedroom was basically filled with light blue and light green elements.

Lian Xi was lying on the bed, leaning sideways and hugging the pillow, with a smile on his lips.

Lu Sili took out his laptop to handle some matters.

Suddenly, the cell phone on the table rang.

After looking at the name displayed on the screen, Lu Sili hesitated for a moment and finally answered the call.

"Hey?"

A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the receiver.

"Ali, I haven't contacted you for a long time, are you okay?"

The man's voice was deep and magnetic, as if it had some kind of magic that made people fall into it and unable to extricate themselves.

Lian Xi, who had originally been pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at Lu Sili with a curious look.

Hearing the man's voice, Lu Sili frowned.

man?

who is it?

Lu Sili subconsciously looked towards Lian Xi, only to see that Lian Xi was also looking at him with the same puzzled expression, with strong exploration and curiosity in his eyes.

A hint of panic flashed through Lu Sili's mind.

"Ali?" the man on the other end of the phone shouted again.

"I'm busy." Lu Sili hung up the phone.

When Lian Xi saw what Lu Sili did, she immediately crawled in front of Lu Sili, clamped her legs around his waist, held his handsome face with both hands, and forced him to look at her.

"Husband, do you know that man?" Lian Xi's expression was very serious, as if he was interrogating a criminal.

Lu Sili put his hands on Lian Xi's shoulders and tried to push Lian Xi away.

But Lian Xi was unyielding and kept pestering Lu Sili, making it impossible for him to get away.

"I don't know him." Lu Sili denied.

Hearing this, Lian Xi asked even more excitedly, "You are lying, why did you hang up the phone if you didn't know him?"

Lu Sili’s brows furrowed even deeper.

Seeing this, Lian Xi poked Lu Sili's chest with his finger and continued, "Tell me, who is that man? What does he want you to do?"

At this moment, Lian Xi was like an interrogator.

Looking at the aggressive Lian Xi in front of him, Lu Sili sighed and said, "Xixi, get off me first."

"I won't." Lian Xi said stubbornly.

Lu Sili had no choice but to pick Lian Xi up horizontally, and then changed the subject, "Xixi, are you hungry?"

Lian Xi shook his head.

Hearing this, Lu Sili gently placed Lian Xi on the bed and said, "Then go take a shower first."

Lian Xi nodded.

Seeing Lian Xi walking into the bathroom obediently, Lu Sili breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he quickly dialed a number.

The assistant was quite surprised when he received the call from Lu Sili.

"Mr. Lu, what's wrong?" The assistant's tone was respectful and cautious.

"Check my cell phone call records to see if there are any other numbers or people saved besides the number just called." Lu Sili ordered.

"Yes."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Sili sat quietly in front of the desk waiting.

I don't know why, but I always feel a little uneasy.

Lu Sili couldn't help but frown. He didn't understand his situation. Logically, nothing special should happen.

But why was his heart beating so fast?

Just as Lu Sili was thinking, there was a knock on the door.

Lu Sili looked up and saw Lian Xi, who was wearing loose home clothes, walking in from outside. While wiping her wet hair, she looked at Lu Sili with a smile, "Husband."

Seeing Lian Xi's coquettish expression, Lu Sili's heart softened, "Why haven't you blow-dried your hair yet?"

Lian Xi curled his lips and said, "I forgot."

Lu Sili touched Lian Xi's head lovingly, then handed her the hair dryer.

Lian Xi took the hair dryer and then slowly combed her hair in front of the mirror.

"Xixi, I want to discuss something with you."

Lian Xi stopped what he was doing, turned his head to look at Lu Sili, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I'm going to be away for a while. Before I leave, I will give you the position of president of the Hai City branch. As for me, I'm going abroad. Something unexpected happened at the headquarters, and I need to go there to take charge." When Lu Sili said this, his eyes were focused and solemn.

Lian Xi was stunned for a moment. She stared at Lu Sili in a daze, opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

Lu Sili's eyes were gentle, but his words surprised Lian Xi.

They have been married for more than half a year, and Lu Sili has never hidden anything about his work from Lian Xi.

On weekdays, Lu Sili is very strict in his work, even more demanding than Lian Xi.
