The atmosphere suddenly froze for a moment.
Li Xiao exposed the matter of escaping in this way, which made Cai Xiaotang's face suddenly become hot.
She was stunned for a moment, and then hesitantly said: "I...I was just too bored, so I wanted to go back to my house. Then you...you all knew that I had sneaked out, so why did you come here to scare me? Me! Tell me! Did you do the power outage too!"
Li Xiaowen's eyes flashed with a dark light, and then he deliberately pretended to be surprised and asked.
"Is there a power outage here? I thought you were taking a rest, so I didn't turn on the light, so I didn't dare to make a sound. But... someone wanted to murder my husband..."
Li Xiao said the last four words with a hint of playfulness in his tone.
Cai Xiaotang glared at him speechlessly, and suddenly realized that the two of them fell on the bed in a very ambiguous manner.
"Tsk...get up quickly! You're dead!"
Cai Xiaotang pushed his shoulder and sat up from the bed angrily, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes.
Even after hearing this, Li Xiao still asked with a smiling tone: "Since I was scared to tears, so... after I go back this time, I guess you won't run around again, eh?"
"Who is crying!" Cai Xiaotang wiped away her tears in embarrassment, pursed her lips stubbornly, feeling a little unhappy for no reason.
Is the power outage really just a coincidence?
Why did she think that someone deliberately set a trap for her, trying to scare her so much that she would never dare to run away again?
Cai Xiaotang stared at Li Xiao thoughtfully, feeling that her idea must be right.
But something suddenly occurred to him, and he asked loudly: "By the way! How did you get in?"
"Me?" Li Xiao raised his eyebrows, and then calmly took out a shiny key from his pocket.
"Key? Where did it come from?" Cai Xiaotang stood up suddenly, and then suddenly realized: "Oh! You secretly assigned the key to my house! Tell me! What's your intention!"
Li Xiao was amused by her words. He suddenly looked at her deeply and took a step forward.
The distance between the two people was instantly shortened.
"Do you still remember that we are now a legal couple, so I have the key to your home, is it weird?"
Li Xiao said, deliberately shaking the key in his hand in front of Cai Xiaotang.
Cai Xiaotang subconsciously reached out to grab it, but before she could touch it, the other person put the key back into his pocket very awkwardly.
"Don't you have a key yourself? This one is mine."
Li Xiao blinked at Cai Xiaotang, then grabbed her wrist and turned around to walk out.
"Where are you taking me?" Cai Xiaotang asked subconsciously.
Li Xiao didn't look back: "Of course I'm going home, where else can I go? Do you think your room is comparable to the villa I prepared for you?"
"Tch...is it great to be rich? Don't show off your wealth in front of me in the future!" Cai Xiaotang glared at his back through gritted teeth and replied angrily.
The two of them went downstairs together.
Li Xiao's car was already waiting downstairs, and standing on both sides were the two bodyguards who were responsible for taking care of Cai Xiaotang in the villa.
"Third Young Master, Young Madam."
When the two people saw Li Xiao and Cai Xiaotang, they immediately greeted them respectfully.
Cai Xiaotang thought about her escape this morning and nodded with a guilty conscience.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Li Xiao on the side suddenly say: "Fortunately, Madam, there is nothing to do today, but today is indeed the two of you's dereliction of duty. I will fine you three months' salary. Next time this happens again... …”
Li Xiao deliberately didn't finish his sentence.
The two bodyguards glanced at each other subconsciously, with a trace of confusion flashing in their eyes.
What is Shura doing?
What kind of salary do they get?
Isn’t there a fixed dividend every month?
The two of them were thinking about it when they suddenly heard Cai Xiaotang's angry voice.
"Why are you punishing others' wages? Escape is my own business, what does it have to do with the two of them! And it's three months at a time? How can you be less human than the capitalists of those big companies!"
Cai Xiaotang was heartbroken when she heard about three months' salary.
When Li Xiao heard this, he immediately turned to look at her with a funny look on his face: "So... you mean no punishment?"
"Of course there will be no punishment!" Cai Xiaotang answered without hesitation. After speaking, he hesitated and promised: "The big deal... I... I... won't run away in the future..."
"What did you say?"
Li Xiao suppressed a smile and deliberately pretended not to hear clearly.
"I said I won't run away anymore! Did you hear me?"
Cai Xiaotang became furious instantly and shouted angrily into his ear. Then she quickly turned around and got into the car, slamming the car door with a loud bang.
"cough……"
At this time, even Li Xiao's two subordinates couldn't help but want to laugh.
Li Xiao glanced at the closed car window in a funny manner, but his expression quickly turned serious.
He turned around and took two steps toward the distance, and the two subordinates behind him immediately followed.
"Shura, we have checked outside. Someone tampered with the situation, which caused the power outage at Miss Cai's house."
"Have you been caught?" Li Xiao asked in a deep voice.
"Caught." One of them nodded, but his expression was not relaxed.
"It's just that... he's not one of their people, he's just an electrician who was paid to do things. This time, it may be just a test by them, but being able to immediately grasp the whereabouts of Miss Cai home is enough to show that they have been secretly monitoring her. .”
Hearing this, Li Xiao nodded: "Well, keep her under guard for the time being..."
Halfway through the words, one of them suddenly interrupted: "You won't let Miss Cai come back again? Wasn't the previous plan to let her come back a few more times as appropriate?"
Li Xiao's eyes flickered for a moment and he said nothing.
He had indeed planned this before.
But……
In Li Xiao's mind, the image of her stubbornly wiping her tears flashed through his mind, and his mood suddenly became a little subtle.
"The plan has changed. Just let her stay at my place for the time being. I will notify you of the rest."
Li Xiao said a word, turned around and got into the car, with a complicated look in his eyes that he didn't even notice.
After all, it was a thought on his part that got this woman involved.
Even if it is used as bait... I will still be by my side from now on...
The car door closed and Li Xiao sat directly next to Cai Xiaotang.
Cai Xiaotang showed no reaction and just stared out the window.
"Are you scared?" Li Xiao suddenly asked with a teasing smile.
Cai Xiaotang was stunned when he heard this, and immediately rolled his eyes at him angrily: "You are just stupid! I suddenly felt...did you deliberately say that you wanted to punish them in front of me just now?"
"Cough..." Li Xiao coughed lightly, his expression a little subtle for a moment.
She is indeed not stupid...
Cai Xiaotang snorted coldly in her heart, and was just about to continue the "interrogation" when she smelled a strange smell keenly on the tip of her nose.
She couldn't help but take a second look at Li Xiao beside her.
Why does this smell, like a faint rusty smell, seem to come from him?
