Chapter 76: Chapter 76 His Guess Was Correct
"Xiao Wan, Xiao Wan."
Chen Yu whispered as she shook her phone.
She had just taken a screenshot of the message and sent it to Tang Xiaowan, adding another message to comfort her.
"Try not to get angry after you read this, okay? She’s always been like this, she even talked about me before, saying the birthmark I have is hereditary, a result of too much bad karma from a previous life. So, you mustn’t get angry, love you, muah!"
Chen Yu expected Tang Xiaowan to explode with fury.
For a girl, the label of being "kept" was too ugly to bear, and most couldn’t handle it.
However, the response she received made her see Tang Xiaowan in a new light.
"Why should I be angry? The pure remain pure, the filthy remain filthy; she’s just envious of me, jealous of me. Ah, the poor kid, no one to love her, hahaha!"
Chen Yu: "Are you okay? Have you lost your mind to anger?"
"This afternoon I have something on so I won’t attend the elective class. Make sure you take good notes, I’ll borrow them to copy later."
Chen Yu: "..."
Could she really have become muddled by rage?
Ah, she must want to hide and have a good cry.
She used to bully me, and now she’s bullying Xiao Wan!
Chen Yu felt indignant and quietly picked up her phone to begin her own plan.
...
At noon, Tang Xiaowan still went to Li Zihan’s little apartment. Everyone had a good chat before the meal, discussing many things unrelated to their studies.
This time, Cheng Shi still took his plate to the small courtyard alone, not joining Tang Xiaowan and the others, but on leaving, he brought up the idea of sparring in taekwondo with Li Zihan.
Li Zihan was immensely excited and gave him a big hug.
In the afternoon elective class, Tang Xiaowan indeed did not attend.
She ignored the rumors completely because she had more important things to do, like handling the property transfer with the agency.
On the way to the trading center, Cheng Shi was preoccupied with many thoughts.
He tried to say something several times but swallowed his words.
"Hey, why do you keep looking around? Just say it, you’re making it seem like there’s writing on my face."
"Lady, are you sure you don’t want to think it over?"
"About the house?"
"I’m just afraid you’ll regret it. After all, we only saw it yesterday, isn’t this a bit hasty?"
"This is a school district house, what is there to consider? If someone insists on giving me a bargain, why should I refuse? If one day I get tired of living there, I can sell it and make a profit of three million. Don’t you think that’s great?"
Tang Xiaowan smiled mischievously, making Cheng Shi feel uncomfortable, as if her words had a double meaning but she didn’t want to say it outright.
"Lady, I..."
He gripped the steering wheel tightly, but the car slowed.
"Okay, okay, I was just joking. Let’s go, don’t keep them waiting too long, hahaha."
"Yes, Lady Tang."
Meanwhile, at the fourth floor of Li Garden, in the study.
William returned from Qingcheng and was frowning as he accepted the chrysanthemum tea Nanny Chen brought to him.
He picked up the Purple Sand Cup and then put it back down without taking a sip.
It wasn’t until Nanny Chen left that William casually placed it on the coffee table and slowly walked toward Li Zishen.
"How did it go, did you meet the person?"
"Yes, I met him this morning. Professor Song has been diagnosed with depression and is preparing to go abroad for treatment. That’s why he hasn’t wanted to meet anyone recently. I’ve seen the medical report, and it’s basically in line with my assessment. His memory indeed far exceeds that of an ordinary person, and so is his sense of smell."
"No wonder when he first arrived at Li Garden, he didn’t want to take his pills, saying they smelled disgusting and made him want to vomit. He even secretly flushed them down the toilet; turns out I wronged him."
"The scenes in his dreams are remnants of his past memories. As for why his other memories were destroyed, there’s no conclusion yet, but Professor Song said it might be due to psychological trauma."
Li Zishen frowned, "A scare!"
Those two words had also been mentioned by Fang Yun before.
But after the test results came out, that theory was immediately overturned; Tang Xiaowan was completely normal.
"Should we continue with the acupuncture in secret from now on?"
"I’ll talk to Xiao Wan about it first, thanks for coming all this way."
"Hey, don’t be like that, we’re practically brothers! Alright then, I won’t come over for the time being, I’ll take the opportunity to go home and spend some time with the old folks. Let me know once you’ve decided, and I assure you I’ll be there at a moment’s notice, hahaha."
"Give my regards to your uncle and aunt."
Li Weilian left with a flirty blink, feeling a huge weight lifted off his shoulders, as he had arrived with a heavy heart.
In order to discuss Tang Xiaowan’s condition with Professor Song in person, he had waited in Qingcheng for three days. Although the outcome was almost exactly as he had speculated and there weren’t any significant breakthroughs, it was still the best possible outcome.
At least it proved that his judgment was correct.
He and Li Zishen were close friends; he only hoped to find the cause of the illness as soon as possible, round off everything nicely, and have the chance to celebrate the wedding soon.
Meanwhile, Su Luoyi waited expectantly downstairs.
As soon as she saw Li Weilian coming down, she approached him immediately, "How did it go? What did Mr. Li say, does he accept the theory that Lady Tang was agitated?"
"Um, but we need to halt the acupuncture for now."
"Why? Weren’t the last two sessions very effective? Mr. Li saw it himself, how intense Lady Tang’s reactions were. Although she didn’t speak much, and it was a bit hard to understand, it was obvious that she really..."
Li Weilian: "?"
"Let’s just leave it at that."
Su Luoyi’s words were cut off as she stared at the elevator, where the number 4 was flashing.
Someone was coming down the elevator.
"Isn’t Mr. Li concerned that stopping halfway might lead to other complications for Lady Tang?"
"Start packing, I’ll wait for you in the car."
Li Weilian had a smile on his face but his tone was quite cold. After speaking, he swiftly walked away, leaving Su Luoyi standing alone in the living room, dazed.
She still had some things to sort out.
Back in her room, the more Su Luoyi thought about it, the angrier she became. She dumped everything out of her suitcase all over the floor.
"Not a single reliable man!"
"They talk as if they love so much, but in reality, it’s nothing—they only care about themselves, each one putting money first."
"Teacher, you were right; I was wrong."
Su Luoyi had vented for 10 minutes by the time she was done.
She repacked her belongings, then touched up her makeup and changed into the prettiest clothes she had, wearing a smile as she walked out the door.
She had a great figure, curvy in all the right places.
She was naturally beautiful, but due to work demands, she couldn’t be too ostentatious, mostly wearing loose, casual clothes.
Her hair was usually not left loose either but simply tied back in a ponytail with a black band.
At the moment, in the small sedan, Li Weilian was on the phone with Li Zishen, "You were right, I concede."
"Just realized it now?"
"Ah, don’t mention it, it’s frustrating."
Li Zishen’s lips curved into a slight smile, "Still going home?"
"Going, definitely. Mom’s got all the food ready, I’m the filial son of the Li Family, can’t run away from the battle now, can I? I must go."
"Alright, then. Drive slowly, I need to take another call."
"Sure, we’ll talk later, bye."
Not even a few seconds after hanging up, someone knocked on the car window. Li Weilian quickly stashed his black phone in the glove compartment and then opened the passenger door.
