Chapter 28.1

“How is Mom?”

Li Xiao sat inside a private room, made herself a cup of fruit tea, and asked Ai Wen who was sitting across her. In order to not leave any traces, Li Xiao wouldn’t usually mention Xu Manqin’s name over the phone. After all, Li Qianfei wasn’t the only hacker in this world. It wouldn’t be good if someone was listening to Li Xiao’s conversations.

She also asked about Xu Manqin’s wellbeing. She already gave her card to Ai Wen, who gave it to Xu Manqin. Currently, Li Xiao wasn’t short of money.

Over time, Ai Wen’s cropped hair had grown slightly longer, and she seemed to have no intention of cutting it short. Instead, she used a clip to keep the hair out of her face. Ai Wen gave off a cold and respectable aura. She slightly smiled as she said, “Your mom is recovering well. The charms you sent work nicely. They get rid of her nightmares, so she can sleep at night now.”

When Xu Manqin just arrived home, nightmares haunted her. When Li Xiao heard of this, she sent her a talisman to soothe her nerves.

Li Xiao nodded. “If there’s anything else, be sure to tell me.”

Ai Wen couldn’t help but be moved by her thoughtfulness. Before this conversation, Ai Wen had written down a list of topics she wanted to talk about. She knitted her eyebrows and said, “Why did you sell the company shares? And to Ren Shaotang of all people. Isn’t that convenient for him?” Although Ai Wen disliked Li Qianfei, she had to admit that Qianfei seemed to be sheltered by the heavens, and her luck was frightening. Even Ai Wen followed Li Qianfei and bought several of the company shares, which made her lots of money.

Li Xiao unenthusiastically said, “The stocks are going to plummet soon.”

“Did you receive news of this from someone?” Ai Wen whispered.

Li Xiao couldn’t say that Li Qianfei no longer had her luck anymore. Li Xiao thought for a while and used Li Qianxing as an excuse. “Ah, it’s because Li Qianxing was arrested! He’ll be locked up for a few years. You should sell the stocks you bought, too.”

Although everyone in the Li family believed Li Qianxing would come out sooner or later, Li Xiao believed in what Jiang Chao had said. Li Qianxing wouldn’t be able to get out—at least not within a few years. And he wouldn’t be able to see anyone else.

Li Xiao succinctly told Ai Wen about what Li Qianxing did. Ai Wen was flabbergasted. “God has eyes. They’re getting retribution, at last!”

Ai Wen connected Li Qianxing’s identity as a hacker with previous incidents. She gritted her teeth and said, “Before, a deal I had with a few celebrities sunk for no reason. It was because of him. And then there was your grandfather’s company. Confidential documents were leaked, and the bid’s reserve price was spread all over the place in an hour.”

At that time, although the Xu family wasn’t as powerful as it was previously, a scrawny camel was still bigger than a horse. It fell so quickly because of the Li family, Ren family, and multiple other rich families who cooperated with each other.

Li Xiao believed Li Qianxing should at least be locked up for a few years. His method of stealing business secrets at every turn was despicable. Let China teach him a proper lesson.

Ai Wen bought Li Xiao’s excuse and quickly prepared to help sell Li Xiao’s shares. Of course, Li Xiao couldn’t meet Ren Shaotang in person, so she needed someone that Ren Shaotang recognized to do the heavy lifting.

After talking with Li Xiao for a while, Ai Wen brought up Zhang Hanbi. “Right, Hanbi wanted to say her thanks to you. Thanks to your reminder, she didn’t lose too much.”

When Li Xiao purchased Zhang Hanbi’s villa, she reminded Hnabi of the inappropriate behavior of her secret husband, Xu Renda. From then on, Zhang Hanbi kept her eyes peeled. She pretended to lose all of her investments and didn’t pay back her bridegroom’s sky-high debts. After pretending for a while, Xu Renda thought Zhang Hanbi was about to go bankrupt and soon divorced her. Waiting for him after the divorce was a beautiful female fan. Since Zhang Hanbi’s notarized her assets before the marriage, she did not lose much. Therefore, Zhang Hanbi was very grateful to Li Xiao.

“She wanted to say her thanks in person, but she’s on a nationwide tour right now.” Ai Wen grabbed a few concert tickets and handed them to Li Xiao. They were all VIP seats.

Well, if she was free, she’d go listen. Li Xiao looked at the date for the concert: September, which was a month from now. Li Xiao would have already started school.

Before Li Xiao left, a topic came to mind, and she brought it up with Ai Wen. “Your company’s Feng Sui- No, our company’s Feng Shui… You should find someone to look at it. There’s a problem with the momentum of gathering wealth”

If it were before, Ai Wen would’ve thought Li Xiao was pretending to be an expert and wouldn’t have taken her words to heart. But after Zhang Hanbi, Ai Wen had to pay more attention to Li Xiao.

Additionally, Huayuan Entertainment was struggling these last two years. Ai Wen’s expression became grim as she said, “I know.”

Feng Shui was something that was better to be trusted. Not to mention, since she was a senior figure at the company, she knew that ten years ago, the company’s owner hired a high-ranking person to set up a Feng Shui formation.
