Chapter 120: Chapter 120 What are you going to do?

Outside Mei Garden, Bai Long hung up the phone and swiftly relayed Li Zishen’s orders.

An hour later, the bodyguards returned to their respective posts.

One of them, who was closest to Bai Long’s off-road vehicle and had been accompanying him most frequently during this period, was nicknamed Fei Maotui.

While handing in his phone, he intentionally lingered a bit longer.

Seeing that no one was around, he whispered, "Brother Long, we were doing well tailing them, why did Brother Shen ask us to pull back? Hey, really don’t get it, those two cars definitely had issues, especially the one from Huang City, the car windows were so tightly shut, who comes to tour here and..."

"Brother Shen has his reasons, now scram."

Fei Maotui scratched his head hastily and just chuckled foolishly, "Right, right, my mistake, Brother Long, so tomorrow... we really won’t go..."

Before he could finish.

Immediately, a sharp glance from Bai Long swept over, and Fei Maotui quickly grabbed the signal device and left at a fast pace, as if a slower step would get him beaten.

The plan to go to Huang City to investigate Wang Junchen was something even Chen Xin wasn’t aware of, so naturally, it had to be kept secret.

But the bodyguards weren’t fools either. He merely probed to a certain point and hadn’t expected Bai Long to get angry so quickly, so he understood something in his heart, knowing the matter was definitely not simple, something that couldn’t even be mentioned.

Not long after, a dozen paparazzi photos were sent to Li Zishen’s phone.

By this time, it was the dinner hour.

"Zishen, it looks like you have a message," Tang Xiaowan, holding a big pork hock, said with a smile.

"Eat first, we’ll look at it later."

"Oh, hahaha."

The hearty laughter suddenly filled the room.

Normally, as long as Li Zishen was eating with Tang Xiaowan, work was completely set aside, no calls were taken if possible, and messages would be even more ignored.

However, now was not then.

Ever since she met Leng Lingxiao in the afternoon, Tang Xiaowan’s suspicion of Li Zishen had deepened a bit.

Despite her relish in gnawing on the pork hock, her big eyes didn’t rest for a moment, either stealing glances at the phone screen or observing if the man’s demeanor was off.

Regarding the Ruby bracelet issue, she decided not to ask for the time being, opting to wait and see how things unfolded.

"Eat some greens, don’t just gnaw on the pork hock."

With that, two broccoli spears were placed atop Tang Xiaowan’s rice by Li Zishen.

A plaintive look shot forth immediately.

"I’ve already eaten several, need to eat more? Seriously, I’m not a little rabbit."

"There are only five in total, not many."

"Alright, alright, I get it, so annoying."

Granny Yu knew Tang Xiaowan loved pork hocks and braised eight in one go. Because Li Zishen was preoccupied with other matters, they didn’t use much for dinner, especially meat.

Tang Xiaowan, although preoccupied herself, still ate with relish; this was already her second pork hock.

Che, quite the busybody!

Please, this is Mei Garden, my territory, not your Li Garden.

I am picky and just eat vegetables, and yet you criticize me!

"Xiao Wan... aren’t we supposed to deliver the root carving to Bie Yuan tonight? By the time we get there, it will already be past midnight, so maybe tonight..."

"Stay at Bie Yuan?"

Tang Xiaowan cut to the chase, which actually put Li Zishen on the defensive.

In fact, he received a call from Madam Lai at noon, but fearing Tang Xiaowan’s refusal, he had been hesitating until now to muster the courage to ask, only to be preempted.

Commanding in the business world, his word was law, but in love, he was cautious and circumspect.

This phrase couldn’t be more fitting to describe Li Zishen.

"Yes, if it’s inconvenient, then let’s return to Li Garden, it’s fine, my mother just... you must have noticed, she’s quite fond of you."

Tang Xiaowan touched her nose and asked with a smile, "How’s your mom’s heart health?"

Li Zishen frowned, "What are you planning to do?"
