"What's wrong?"
Jiang Baobao noticed Cai Xiaotang's movements and looked back.
But saw nothing.
"It's nothing. I thought I saw someone I knew. I must have been wrong."
Cai Xiaotang said casually, but couldn't help but feel a little wary.
It seems that Li Xiao's "rival" hasn't caused trouble for him for a while...
There are bodyguards following me all the time, except today.
So it shouldn't be that bad, right?
Cai Xiaotang withdrew her gaze and couldn't help but murmur in her heart.
Jiang Baobao didn't think much and continued to visit the manor with her.
But not long after, the man wearing a hat appeared behind several people.
There were originally more than just the two of them here.
In addition to being used for weddings, it is also open to visitors.
Therefore, there are other servants who are busy, and other guests who come here to visit.
Jiang Baobao pulled Cai Xiaotang to a pavilion where they could have afternoon tea. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw a man wearing a hat following the two of them not too far away.
Jiang Baobao couldn't help but stare at the other person for a few seconds, always feeling something was strange.
That person looked... like he wasn't a tourist here.
But the bodyguard Li Xiao sent to Xiaotang seemed to be taller and stronger...
Could it be that someone has been replaced?
Jiang Baobao calmly sat down with Cai Xiaotang in the pavilion.
Then as expected, he saw the other party stopping not far away.
She suddenly understood and didn't think about it any more.
Sure enough, he was the bodyguard following Xiaotang...
Then you don't have to worry about it.
Jiang Baobao looked away and planned to chat with Cai Xiaotang.
Unexpectedly, Cai Xiaotang stared blankly at the air again.
"Xiaotang? What are you thinking about?"
Jiang Baobao stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
Cai Xiaotang suddenly came back to her senses, an unnatural look suddenly flashed across her face, and she laughed twice: "It's nothing, maybe I didn't rest yesterday, so I was always distracted..."
"Then you still want to go out with me? Why don't you rest at home?"
Jiang Baobao complained about her, Cai Xiaotang made a face, but couldn't help but think of Li Xiao in his mind.
So is this what it feels like to fall in love with someone?
I can't help but think about him...
I don’t know if that guy has finished the meeting?
Have you ever found yourself out?
…
the other side--
Li Xiao was listening to his subordinates' report in the study.
"The Vipers have been very honest recently, but we don't rule out the possibility that they are planning some actions. We should try to be more careful here, or maybe..."
A man was sitting on the sofa. Halfway through his words, he suddenly paused.
"Can what?"
Li Xiao continued to ask.
The group of people present looked at each other subconsciously.
After another pause for a few seconds, the person who just spoke continued: "Or we can take the initiative to set up a plan... We just need Miss Cai..."
Li Xiao's expression suddenly became stern.
The man immediately understood and stopped talking.
After a long time, someone asked again tentatively: "Shura, we didn't plan it from the beginning. If necessary, we can leave Miss Cai to the other side..."
"I have other plans for this matter, so there is no need to let her take risks for the time being."
Li Xiao directly interrupted the other party's words, and his face became gloomier than before.
"yes."
The man immediately stopped talking.
The study was quiet for a moment, and after a while, someone brought up other topics.
The meeting didn't really end until two hours later.
The group of people all left, and only Li Xiao remained in the study.
Thinking of his subordinate's suggestion just now, he couldn't help but frown.
Use her as bait?
I did plan to do this from the beginning...
But now...
Li Xiao thought of the previous times when Cai Xiaotang was in danger, and suddenly couldn't help but feel a little tight.
We can't let her take any more risks.
Even if he is absolutely sure that he can guarantee her safety, there is no way to prevent her from getting injured...
Just thinking about this matter, Li Xiao felt a little restless, but he was unwilling to delve into why he felt this way.
As he was thinking, he suddenly heard someone walking in.
"Shura, Miss Cai came here three hours ago."
Someone was standing at the door reporting the news.
"What's wrong with her?"
Li Xiao asked casually.
Then I heard someone outside reply: "Ms. Cai didn't say anything happened. She heard there was a meeting here and left, as if she had gone out."
"She went out?"
Li Xiao suddenly stood up from the chair, frowning instantly.
Everyone was having a meeting here just now, and she went out alone with no one to protect her!
If something unexpected happens at this time...
"Does anyone know where she went?"
Li Xiao said, already stood up and walked towards the door.
The subordinates hurriedly replied: "No one knows. Everyone was in the study just now. I only know that Miss Cai has been driving out for several hours..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Xiao's figure had disappeared up the stairs.
the other side……
Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang were sitting in the pavilion drinking afternoon tea.
The two chatted a lot about the wedding arrangements. As they were getting into the conversation, Jiang Baobao suddenly heard his cell phone ringing.
She glanced at it and found that it was an unfamiliar number, so she picked up the call out of curiosity.
As soon as the call was connected, I heard a familiar voice coming from the other end of the phone.
"Is Cai Xiaotang with you?"
Li Xiao came up and got straight to the point.
Jiang Baobao was stunned by his question. He subconsciously looked at Cai Xiaotang, who was sitting opposite him, and replied, "We are together. What's wrong? Do you want her to answer the phone?"
Jiang Baobao handed over the phone.
"who is it……?"
Cai Xiaotang asked with her mouth.
Jiang Baobao didn't know what was wrong with her, so he hurriedly replied: "It's Li Xiao."
She heard it right from the moment Li Xiao made a sound.
"oh……"
Cai Xiaotang nodded, feeling a little excited for a moment.
But thinking about his straight behavior this morning, I was still a little unhappy, so I deliberately replied: "Then there's no need to answer the question. Just tell him that I'm with you and I'll go home later."
"ah?"
Jiang Baobao put the phone back to his ear hesitantly, and was about to speak——
"Send me the address and I'll go there now. You two will wait for me there."
After Li Xiao finished speaking, he hung up the phone, leaving only Jiang Baobao who looked at a loss.
"What happened? What did he say?"
Cai Xiaotang asked curiously when she saw Jiang Baobao was stunned.
Then he saw Jiang Baobao looking at him with some worry.
"Xiaotang...did you and Li Xiao have a fight?"
Jiang Baobao asked worriedly. Thinking of Li Xiao's anxious tone on the phone just now, and Cai Xiaotang's always distracted today, he couldn't help but have speculations in his heart.
