Li Xiao was called out for afternoon tea by Ewen, and the first thing she said was business.
"Your cousins have returned to the country."
Li Xiao looked indifferent. She didn't have any memories of the past, so she didn't have any impression of her cousins! They should be relatives of the Xu family? After the Xu family went bankrupt, they scattered. According to her previous investigation, they had all gone abroad to avoid the Li Clan's suppression.
Ewen obviously knew as well. He said, "You might not remember, but you were very close to Ah Rou at that time. Ah Rou has a soft personality and can get along with everyone."
Xu Rou was Li Xiao's cousin. She was ranked third in the Xu family, but the Xu family didn't differentiate between men and women.
Li Xiao thought for a moment. "I remember that Sister Rou is already married." She lowered her head and did a search. The internet was so advanced nowadays that even the oldest dark history could be dug up. Not to mention, when Xu Rou got married, the Xu family was flourishing. In addition, the man was not from a small family and could be said to be of equal social status. Therefore, the wedding was not small. She could find a bunch of photos just by doing a search.
Xu Rou in the photos looked somewhat similar to Xu Manqin, but her facial features were gentler and she had a smile on her lips. She looked like a gentle beauty. After looking at her appearance, Li Xiao had a good impression of her. As the saying goes, one's appearance is born from one's heart. She was a righteous person, worthy of being her cousin who was close to her. Her husband, Wei Ting, was handsome. His peach blossom eyes were full of affection, and he had an elegant temperament. The photo of the two of them was very compatible. They looked like a perfect match.
Li Xiao's gaze landed on Wei Ting. She tsked. With his appearance, it was obvious that he had a lot of suitors.
Ewen nodded. "Previously, your uncle was worried that something would happen in the country, so the whole family hurriedly moved abroad. Now that the Li Clan can't even take care of themselves, your cousins came back first to check out the situation."
Li Xiao was actually not worried about the Xu family. After the Feng Shui of the Xu family was improved, they would more or less protect them. But since they were back, she had to find time to meet them.
As soon as she mentioned it to Ewen, Ewen immediately called them.
In less than an hour, Li Xiao saw his cousin, Xu Xufeng, and his cousin, Xu Rou. Xu Xufeng was only a few months younger than Li Xiao. Perhaps it was because he had gone through a family tragedy, the arrogant and domineering young man in the photo had a calm temperament. Her cousin, Xu Rou, had a bit of melancholy on her face, but when she saw Li Xiao, she still gave her a gentle and quiet smile.
"Xiao Xiao."
"Sister Rou." Li Xiao called her by her habits. She felt that if she really was the original owner, then some of her habits should be the same. Xu Rou clearly did not show any surprise at this name, which meant that she called her correctly.
Ewen directly found an excuse to leave first, leaving the three of them alone.
Xu Xufeng said to Li Xiao as soon as he saw her, "Xiao Xiao, you've suffered!"
Li Xiao: "???"
She ate well, wore well, and often went to anger the Li Clan. How had she suffered? She looked so good, she didn't look like someone who had suffered! Was there something wrong with this cousin's eyes?
Xu Xufeng said angrily, "I know you didn't want us to worry, so you never told us. I saw the news. The Li Clan bullied you too much, they've been bullying you! Li Qianfei even framed you! "
Li Xiao's face was wooden. She understood! Xu Xufeng must have checked Weibo a lot when he was abroad to pay attention to the news in China. On the Internet, Chan Ka-yin and the others had a bad reputation. In contrast, Li Xiao was fiercely doted on by the majority of netizens.
In the hearts of the netizens, Li Xiao was originally a pampered girl, but Chan Ka-yin, the mistress, came into her happy family. With a mistress, a stepmother would have a stepfather. At home, she was framed and mistreated. She was like a little cabbage, yellow in the fields.
Xu Xufeng interpreted her expression as tacit agreement, and promised her seriously, "Don't worry, I've opened a company now. Although it's far from our family's previous company, it's enough to support you. You don't have to stay in the Li Clan and continue to suffer. "
"I've bought a few houses in China this time. When the time comes, I'll transfer one under your name."
Xu Xufeng and Li Xiao were about the same age. In addition, his mother had passed away early, and his aunt, Xu Manqin, was worried that he would be wronged, so she often protected him. Therefore, he had a good relationship with Li Xiao. Now that his aunt was missing, the only thing he could do was to take good care of Li Xiao, his cousin, who was not much older than him.
Xu Rou added, "I have some spare money, so I asked Feng to buy a few houses for me. When the time comes, you can choose one too."
Li Xiao was both amused and touched. How should she put it? Although this cousin of hers was a little naive, he had a good character. He had just made some money, but he was already thinking about Li Xiao.
Xu Xufeng continued, "Li Clan's stock has fallen quite badly recently, so I'm planning to buy some at a low price now."
What he wanted most was to revive the Xu family, but Xu family's company had already gone bankrupt, so he had to settle for the next best thing, which was to buy Li Clan. At that time, the Xu family had put in a lot of effort into Li Clan's company. If all of it fell into the hands of Chan Ka-yin's son and daughter, he would vomit blood.
Li Xiao raised her voice. "You bought the shares?"
Xu Xufeng was stunned. "Not yet."
Li Xiao said seriously, "You're not allowed to buy them! Li Clan's stock will only fall more and more. "
Xu Xufeng thought that she had obtained some insider information, so he braced himself. However, the next second, he heard Li Xiao say, "I've observed the stars at night, and the Li Clan will go bankrupt by next year at the latest." Li Qianfei didn't know how to do good deeds and accumulate good karma. The more bad things she did, the faster her luck dissipated.
Xu Xufeng and Xu Rou both showed an indescribable expression.
Xu Xufeng wanted to say something, but he stopped himself. Was Cousin cheated by some scammer?
Li Xiao was a little helpless. "Okay, actually Chan Ka-yin is about to cry. When the news comes out, the stock will definitely fall again, so you'd better not buy it."
Xu Xufeng heard this and dismissed the idea of buying the shares.
Li Xiao said, "You should develop your company well. Your company still has a bright future."
Xu Xufeng was surprised. "Do you know what company I started?"
Li Xiao just smiled. Of course she didn't know. But she knew how to read people's faces. Xu Xufeng's face showed that he would face a tribulation when he came of age (this tribulation was the bankruptcy of the Xu family). After overcoming it, he would be like a great bird spreading its wings and roaming the nine heavens.
She changed the topic. "As for the house, you don't have to give it to me. You can keep it." She saw that the siblings didn't agree with her, so she quickly said, "Do you know Zijun District?"
Xu Xufeng nodded. Of course he knew. This district was famous for being expensive. In the past, the Xu family also bought some houses here, but unfortunately, they were all sold.
Li Xiao said calmly, "There's an entire building in this district that belongs to me!"
So she really wasn't poor.
Xu Xufeng was embarrassed at this time. He thought that his cousin was living a miserable life, but in fact, she was a rich person who had many apartments in her hands. Lê Nam Giệu was actually willing to give her a share of the money? He thought that Lê Nam Giệu only cared about the child Chan Ka-yin gave birth to for him.
Li Xiao said, "I have some spare money on hand. I originally wanted to invest, but I don't know much about it, so I might as well invest in your company."
Xu Xufeng was very touched. Xiao Xiao trusted him so much that she was willing to invest in him without asking anything. He had to admit that this was actually a beautiful misunderstanding.
"How much spare money do you have on hand?"
Li Xiao said, "I have a few billion in cash. I'll take out a billion to invest." She knew that all eggs shouldn't be put in the same basket.
Xu Xufeng, whose company's total assets didn't exceed 200 million, "…"
His mood was very complicated, very complicated.
In the end, Li Xiao and Xu Xufeng reached an agreement to invest 100 million first. When the company developed and expanded, they would increase the investment.
Xu Rou looked at the two of them discussing. The gloominess on his face disappeared, and there was a smile in his eyes.
Just as they were talking, Li Xiao's phone rang. She looked down and saw that the caller ID was Ren Shaotang.
Haha, this idiot!
She directly hung up. But why did Ren Shaotang call her? She didn't hesitate to use the worst possible way to judge Ren Shaotang.
Li Xiao gave her address to Xu Xufeng and his brother and went back first. She also asked Zhang Yan to find a ghost to keep an eye on Ren Shaotang and see what he was up to. Unknowingly, Zhang Yan had already gathered nine wandering ghosts.
*****
Ren Shaotang's face darkened. He called her again and again, but he was rejected every time. He didn't expect that his plan would be stuck at the first step. Li Xiao didn't give him any face at all. She didn't even answer the phone.
Li Qianfei was also a little anxious. How could their plan succeed if they couldn't even meet her face to face? Of course, she didn't dare to use her phone to call her. She was afraid that Li Xiao would hate her and take revenge on her. It was obvious that Li Qianfei's feelings for Ren Shaotang were just plastic.
Ren Shaotang took a deep breath, swallowed his anger, and sent a long text message. The content was nothing more than saying that he felt guilty that he, an elder, had dealt with Li Xiao before, so he wanted to apologize to her in person. He hoped that Li Xiao would let bygones be bygones and give him a chance. Otherwise, he would toss and turn in bed because of guilt.
As he typed, he comforted Li Qianfei, who had an ugly expression, "Don't worry, there won't be a problem this time. I've already accepted the invitation of Douhu Live Streaming Website. When the time comes, I'll reveal her true face to the public. "
The website also personally sent him a live streaming tool. It was very secretive, so Li Xiao definitely wouldn't find out.
Li Qianfei nodded her head. She was fed up with the life of a street rat. How she wished that Li Xiao could experience what she had gone through.
While the two of them were waiting for Li Xiao's reply, Li Xiao also received first-hand information.
Standing in front of Li Xiao was a girl who unfortunately died at the age of 14. She repeated Ren Shaotang's words.
Li Xiao lowered her eyelids. Go, of course she had to go! It was rare for Ren Shaotang to send himself to her door.
Of course, she couldn't go so easily. Wouldn't that be letting them take advantage of her? Ren Shaotang's so-called apology was worthless, not to mention that it was a fake apology without any sincerity. She would use the money she got from him to invest in her cousin's company. She was really a peerless elder sister. She gave herself a thumbs up first ~
Thus, she replied.
[Your apology is worthless. I'm a little tight on money recently. Give me 100 million and I'll consider it.]
After sending it, she began to flip through the Taoist books she brought from Yunxiao Guan.
How did she draw the Talisman of Truth? She had never drawn it before, so her memory wasn't deep. For example, she could draw the Fireball Curse and Thunder Curse with her eyes closed. But the Talisman of Truth … If others knew that she knew this, they would be wary.
So this time, even if she wanted to use it to trick Ren Shaotang, she had to do it secretly.
Li Xiao rubbed her hands silently.
