Chapter 2227: 2236: She Sent a Text Message Threatening Me to Come

"What Chi Enen, what design?" Lu Yaqi maintained herself well, completely disguising her true age, looking at most in her early thirties, with smooth and elastic skin, dressed tastefully with an air of elegance. However, now her eyes were shifting uncertainly, disrupting her innate grace, otherwise, she would appear even more beautiful. And it’s true, if Lu Yaqi wasn’t beautiful, there’s no way Li Beijue’s father would have been interested in her. Nor would she have given birth to a son who consistently ranks first in the global Diamond King rankings.

Lu Yaqi steadied herself slightly, as if she had convinced herself, and faced Li Beijue’s questioning with more confidence, "I don’t know who you’re looking for, but I really just came here for a meal!"

"Give me the mobile phone." Li Beijue extended his hand, stepping closer. "Let me see the mobile phone, and I’ll believe you just ’happened’ to come here for a meal."

Lu Yaqi immediately stepped back, her eyes unconsciously glancing at the branded handbag set aside, "What’s so interesting about my mobile phone, don’t you believe what mom says?"

Li Beijue had already noticed her subtle movement, expressionlessly stretched out his hand, snatched the handbag that was on the table, and without a word, found the mobile phone inside the handbag.

He had not yet cracked the mobile phone password.

Lu Yaqi couldn’t hold it any longer, "Enough! I’ll speak."

She pressed her red lips together, her well-made-up face showing a hint of helplessness, "It was Qiyun who sent me the news, asking me to come over. I also don’t know what she wanted me to do here."

"..." Li Beijue paused in turning on the phone, his eyebrows knitted together, not expecting this answer. His eyes seemed like a volcano was about to erupt, "Li Qiyun?"

Lu Yaqi had already spoken, so she might as well say it all at once, "It was her."

Her face darkened, showing a few signs of displeasure, "She sent me a text message threatening me to come over."

"...She threatened you?"

Lu Yaqi hesitated but eventually said, "She caught me misusing the funds of the company under your name. I also don’t know how she found out I was in Mauritius. Three hours ago, she suddenly texted me, asking me to wait for her at this restaurant. Otherwise, she’d hand over the evidence she has on me to your grandfather. You know your grandfather’s temperament, he despises people touching the company’s public funds, I was afraid that once your grandfather found out, he wouldn’t let me see you anymore. So, I hurried over."

She didn’t know why Beijue came instead of Li Qiyun.

When Beijue kicked the door open, it really startled her.

She thought Li Qiyun was threatening her to come over and simultaneously handing over the financial report to the Old Master, which is why Beijue appeared suddenly, so she panicked for a moment.

But the more she listened, the more it felt wrong, like things weren’t as simple as she imagined.

"What happened to Enen?"

She hadn’t liked Chi Enen before, but now that Chi Enen had married her son, as a member of the Li family, she wasn’t malicious enough to hope for misfortune upon her daughter-in-law.

Li Beijue’s temple throbbed intensely with the thought of his previous call with Li Qiyun, her vehement denial back then, and now...

His thin lips pressed tightly into a straight line.

Li Qiyun!

It turns out this matter still can’t be separated from her!

But finding someone to take the fall for something like this doesn’t seem like Li Qiyun’s usual style.

Elsewhere.

In the VIP ward at the Military District Hospital far in Country W.

Li Qiyun leaned against the sickbed, during this period, she actively cooperated with the doctor’s treatment, and her overall complexion appeared much better.
