Master Lin asked the servants to tidy up a room for Li Weixi. An hour later, Aunt Lin also moved all the equipment Li Weixi needed over. At Old Master Lin's request, she also stayed to take care of Li Weixi.
During dinner that night, Old Master Lin told her, "I've already suppressed the news about Xu Shaohua, but that woman is restless, so I can only suppress it for the time being. If Lin Yi contacts you, tell him to hurry up."
"Okay, thank you, Master Lin." Li Weixi nodded and ate silently.
In front of Old Master Lin, she was particularly nervous and reserved. She just lowered her head and ate her food.
After dinner, she went back to her room and felt relieved.
Lin Jiu knocked on her door and walked in. He said with a smile, "You look uneasy, so I came to take a look."
"Thank you," Li Weixi said softly. She was a little nervous. "Did Old Master Lin ask you to come?"
"No, Grandpa doesn't care about these things." Lin Jiu said and sat down. "You don't have to be so afraid of Grandpa. I think he actually likes you very much. If you have time, talk to him more and coax him, then everything will be fine."
Li Weixi smiled briefly. "I feel that his attitude today is even colder than before. I keep thinking that I did something wrong."
"Maybe it's because of this." Lin Jiu said, "This trouble is because of you. Grandpa values my brother, so of course he's unhappy."
So that's why …
Li Weixi said quietly. She didn't feel afraid anymore.
Aunt Lin pushed the door open and walked in. She smiled at Lin Jiu and handed the medicine and water to Li Weixi. "Miss, it's time to take your medicine."
Li Weixi took the medicine and complained to Lin Jiu, "I'm taking medicine every day. I'm about to throw up."
Lin Jiu smiled and said, "You're doing this for the sake of the child in your belly. I'm afraid that you'll be willing to eat."
Li Weixi did not reply for a moment. She stroked her bulging belly and chuckled softly.
After saying a few words of comfort to Li Weixi, Lin Jiu went back to his room.
It was late now, and Lin Yi was still on the plane. Although Li Weixi was thinking about him, there was nothing he could do. So he habitually checked the website to see if he had won the bid before going to bed.
The next morning, before her mind was clear, she remembered that Lin Yi should have arrived at this time. She struggled to get up and looked at her phone. Sure enough, there was a message from Lin Yi.
Li Weixi wanted to call him immediately, but he thought that he might be resting, so he sent a text message to test him. Seeing that he did not reply, he knew that he was still asleep.
After putting down the phone, Li Weixi was no longer sleepy. She changed her clothes and went downstairs.
It was not like when she was at home. She was afraid that Old Master Li would be dissatisfied with her, so she could not stay in the room for too long.
When she walked downstairs to the courtyard, Li Weixi saw Old Master Li sitting in the corridor, so she went over to greet him. "Good morning, Old Master. Aren't you going to rest for a while?"
Old Master Li was holding a rope in his hands and weaving something. When he heard this, he said, "I'm old, but I'm not like you young people who can't stay up late. But you're pregnant. Shouldn't you sleep more?"
"I was thinking about Lin Yi, so I woke up at this time." Li Weixi answered and sat down beside him. She watched Old Master Li weave something. After a while, she recognized it. "Are you making a fish?"
"Yes." Old Master Li nodded. "I've only made a fish head. Luckily, you could tell."
Li Weixi smiled and did not say anything.
Old Master Li said again, "You don't have to be restrained here. Just treat this as your own home. Don't be afraid. You just have to take care of your body and give birth to the child."
Li Weixi understood what he meant and nodded gently.
After sitting with Old Master Li for a while, the butler hurried over. "Old Master, there are rumors outside …"
He stopped talking the moment he saw Li Weixi and glanced at Old Master Li silently.
Old Master Li glanced at Li Weixi and said calmly, "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hide it."
The butler glanced at Li Weixi again and said slowly, "Old Master, Young Master's villa … has been set on fire. More than half of the bedroom has been burned …"
Li Weixi was shocked when she heard this. She was glad that she had listened to Lin Jiu and moved in yesterday. Fortunately, Aunt Lin had also moved in. Otherwise, she did not know what would have happened.
After hearing this news, Old Master Li did not care about the fish in his hands and asked coldly, "Who did it? Did you see the surveillance cameras?"
"Yes." The butler said, "It's a hooligan. We've already caught him, but he refused to say who ordered him to do it."
A hooligan like him would definitely not dare to do such a thing.
Li Weixi could not help but blurt out, "It must be Xu Shaohua."
Old Master Li glanced at her calmly and Li Weixi's heart tightened. Fortunately, Old Master Li did not say much and only ordered, "Investigate according to Sissi's instructions. Find out what Xu Shaohua did yesterday."
"Okay, I'll get someone to investigate." The butler nodded and said hesitantly, "Old Master, if she didn't do it, then …"
"We'll talk about it when the time comes. When we investigate Xu Shaohua, there will be other clues."
"Understood."
After the butler left, Old Master Li said to Li Weixi, "This Xu Shaohua has to be dealt with as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'm afraid that something bigger will happen in the future. It's not convenient for me to be here. Contact the boy from the Bai family and ask him for help. Tell him that Xu Shaohua burned down the villa."
"Okay." Li Weixi nodded and agreed. She also knew that at this time, there was no one else but The Thirteenth Master. In fact, she knew that The Thirteenth Master was looking for evidence about Xu Shaohua. However, after the incident with Bai Sha and Xu Shaohua's silence for a long time, The Thirteenth Master temporarily put the matter aside to gossip.
After breakfast, Lin Jiu accompanied Old Master Li to play basketball. Li Weixi watched from the side and sent a message to The Thirteenth Master to inform him of this matter.
The Thirteenth Master attached great importance to this matter. He promised that he would speed up the search for evidence and investigate this matter with the butler.
While Lin Jiu and Old Master Li were resting, Li Weixi told Old Master Li about this matter.
Old Master Li wiped his sweat and said, "With him around, you don't have to worry about it. Although he doesn't care about the family business, he is still better in this aspect. You just stay here and take care of the baby. Xu Shaohua wouldn't dare to come here."
"Okay." Li Weixi nodded obediently.
Even if she was asked to go back now, she would definitely find a way to stay. The baby in her stomach was almost six months old. She didn't want anything to happen at this time.
Lin Jiu winked at Li Weixi and the two of them smiled tacitly.
After resting enough, the two of them continued to play basketball. At this time, Li Weixi received a call from the hospital.
