Chapter 1263: Chapter 1263: I Saw It on the News
20 minutes later, the Lincoln stopped at an ultra-private luxury cafe not far from the city center.
The man in the car got out, his long legs more dazzling than the models on the T stage; even though he was only wearing simple black clothes and black pants, from the moment he got out, he captured the eyes of passersby, as if wherever he appeared, the light was there!
Huo Yi got out of the car and diligently stayed by his side.
When he saw Li Qiyun sitting in the coffee shop, Huo Yi’s expression turned a bit strange, the corner of his mouth moved, wanting to speak but hesitating, yet before he could say anything, Li Qiyun was already standing up, striding towards the proud and noble man, and slapped him hard on his solid shoulder, her red lips forcefully, squinting her eyes in anger, “You brat, who asked you to take such a risk alone? Do you think you’re immortal? All those people had guns, and you charged in with only half the bodyguards? What if you got shot? Do you want to scare our grandfather to death?”
Li Beijue allowed her to slap his shoulder, letting out a dull hum.
Li Qiyun immediately noticed his slightly pale lips, couldn’t bother to scold him anymore, and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong? Are you really hurt?”
She made a gesture to check.
Li Beijue evaded her, saying nonchalantly, “The bullet has been removed, I’m fine.”
“Why did you call me here?”
Li Qiyun rolled her eyes at him, strong and decisive as she sat back down in her position, without insisting on checking his wound, “Can’t I just call you for no reason? You’re my younger brother, I call you however I want.”
As she said this, she quickly continued, “Never mind, I’m not joking with you. I heard you returned to the country and was worried about you, so I called you to come so I could see if you were still alive. Also, what’s going on in Country S? Didn’t grandfather say it was just a business conflict? How did it turn into gangsters kidnapping our company’s employees?”
Li Beijue stretched his long legs and sat down opposite her, ordered a cup of coffee, and after his pale lips regained some color, he began to leisurely explain what happened in Country S.
He spoke calmly, as if it was no big deal, but Li Qiyun listened with a racing heart.
Outside the coffee shop, journalists who had followed the car were snapping photos of the cafe.
…
Chi Enen had been dazed at the airport for more than ten minutes before coming back to her senses from the shock of brushing shoulders with Li Beijue.
The car just returned to the villa.
Quan Dongting seemed surprised that she came back so soon, “You’re back?”
“Yes.” Chi Enen was in no mood to explain what had happened to him, because she still couldn’t figure out what had happened herself. She said heavily, “Little Uncle, I’m going upstairs first.”
Quan Dongting furrowed his eyebrows slightly, sensing that something had happened, but seeing her not looking well, he didn’t force her to stay and explain, just nodded, “Go on up, I’ll ask Aunt Wang to make you a cup of honey water.”
“Thank you, Little Uncle.”
Chi Enen said this and went upstairs.
She had just gone up when Lin Anxin’s phone call came through.
Chi Enen opened the study room door and answered it.
“Hello, Enen, what’s going on? Didn’t you meet Young Master Li? Why isn’t Young Master Li with you?”
“How did you know?” How did Anxin know she hadn’t met him?
Lin Anxin answered without a thought, “I saw it on the news.”
