Chapter 1251: 1251 Killing Three Birds With One Stone

1251 Killing Three Birds With One Stone

Qiao Xi was silent for a moment before raising her eyes to look at Gu Zheng. “The He family is different from the Meng family. Back then, the He family did their best to help you, but they weren’t as greedy as the Meng family. Other than betraying you back then, it seems that they haven’t done anything else.”

“That’s right.” Gu Zheng’s lips curled into a cold smile.

Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. “Then what do you plan to do? At that time, He Weinian was your master. He appeared when you were at your most helpless and difficult time. Perhaps he had already started planning something more than ten years ago. He didn’t get to finish the plan, so he returned to Li City again. Is that right?”

Gu Zheng’s eyes were bright like stars. “Xi Xi, you’re right.”

Qiao Xi could not help but fall into deep thought. He Weinian was not asking for money or power. Did he want world peace, or did he want to live forever?

These words were truly far-fetched. After thinking for a long time, Qiao Xi was unable to come up with a reasonable excuse.

After the two of them finished eating in the cafe, they had just walked out of the door when Qiao Xi saw Xia Yunlou and Xia Mengyan walking out of Xia Corporation’s building together. Their faces were full of smiles. Xia Mengyan held Xia Yunlou’s arm intimately, while Xia Yunlou’s face was filled with affection. Her eyes were filled with affection, making her look like a gentle mother.

Gu Zheng had a smile on his face as he looked at Qiao Xi. “Looks like Miss Xia is in a good mood!”

“Xia Mengyan is just shameless.” Qiao Xi blinked and sneered.

Gu Zheng lowered his eyes to look at Qiao Xi, who was beside him. Her eyes were filled with confidence as if Xia Mengyan’s actions were within her expectations. Moreover, her target had never been Xia Mengyan but Xia Yunlou.

Xia Yunlou and Xia Mengyan did not notice Qiao Xi opposite them. They got into the car and left together.

Qiao Xi sighed lightly. “The two of them are so intimate. Those who don’t know might even think that Xia Mengyan is Xia Yunlou’s biological daughter! Their relationship is that like of a mother and daughter!”

Gu Zheng smiled. “Xi Xi, are you planning to kill two birds with one stone this time?”

Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with innocence. “What do you mean kill two birds with one stone? I don’t understand what you’re talking about!”

Her plan was clearly to kill three birds with one stone!

After the two of them returned to Longwan Residential, Gu Zheng went to the study to work while Qiao Xi went to the studio to draw designs.

A hidden weapon passed through the gap in the window and landed on the floor. Qiao Xi widened her eyes and picked up the hidden weapon. She hurriedly pushed the window open and scanned the area. After confirming that there was no one around, she walked out of the studio and saw a black figure standing in the corner.

Seeing her walk over, the man bent down and said respectfully, “Eldest Miss.”

“Yes, what is it?” Qiao Xi frowned.

“Young Master sent me to protect you. Please forgive me for disturbing you.”

Qiao Xi’s eyes narrowed slightly. “What does Second Brother know?”

The man replied, “I don’t dare to casually guess Young Master’s thoughts. I only obey his orders.”

Qiao Xi was slightly puzzled. Even though her strength was far inferior to Second Brother’s, it was more than enough to deal with ordinary people. Moreover, she had hidden weapons that could save her life. However, Second Brother actually sent the fifth-ranked assassin from Xuan Island to protect her. Moreover, he even appeared in Longwan Residential.

She raised an eyebrow. “Since you’re here to protect me, why can’t you do it openly? Why did you have to send me a message so late at night? Can’t we let Gu Zheng know about this?”

The man’s voice was calm as he replied respectfully, “I don’t dare to casually guess Young Master’s thoughts. I only obey his orders.”

Qiao Xi was instantly speechless: “…”

She waved her hand helplessly. “Alright, if you want to stay, then stay. I’ll ask Second Brother myself! By the way, did Second Brother agree to the invitation from the cultural relics professor?”

Before the man could speak, Qiao Xi spoke first, “If you don’t know, then shut up. There’s no need to repeat what you just said.”

“I do know. Young Master said that if he can go to the capital with you, he’ll meet that cultural relics professor.”

Qiao Xi’s eyes were filled with pleasant surprise. “Second Brother has agreed!”

“But you must go with him.”

Qiao Xi blinked. A batch of ancient books needed to be repaired. There were many experts in this area in the country, but the Luo family was definitely top-notch in this aspect.

“Young Master said that you can handle such a small matter yourself and he doesn’t have to do anything at all.” The man added, “Young Master also said that you have many talents when it comes to repairing ancient books…”

“Shut up!” Qiao Xi nervously interrupted the man and lowered her voice. “Stop talking. It’s fine as long as you know it in your heart. You don’t have to say it out loud.”

Previously, she learned how to restore ancient books and paintings from Luo Qing. She originally wanted to casually pick a book to practice on, but in the end, she accidentally restored a scroll. At that time, the seniors in the cultural relics world spent a year but were unable to restore the scroll. She only used a month to do it. After that, she became famous in the industry. She was known as the Thousand Faces Immortal Doctor.
