Chapter 1141: Chapter 1141: The person you like is Chi Enen?
She agreed too quickly and with certainty, which made Xi Zelie’s guilt heavier. After a pause, he said, "Listen to what I need your help with first, then decide whether you want to help. It’s okay if you don’t."
"No matter what, I will help you!" Because she liked him not for a day or two, but for many years.
Xi Zelie’s rosy thin lips pressed together, his peach blossom eyes were both passionate and indifferent, "Listen to me first, then decide."
"Go ahead." Kim Zhiyuan felt vaguely that something was wrong, and furrowed her eyebrows slightly.
Xi Zelie, with slightly cold eyes, spoke, "I want you to help me investigate the two people who crashed the KM charity gala, and find out whose power is behind them chasing them."
The Xize family’s influence is mostly in Country Y. They have some people in Country W, but not many. Unlike the Kim family, which has greater influence in Country W.
Besides legitimate industries, the Kim family also has quite a few grey industries. These grey industries make them more likely to be in contact with people in the underworld.
If Kim Zhiyuan agrees to help investigate, it would definitely be twice as effective.
If she doesn’t want to, he can understand.
"The two people who crashed the KM charity gala? Why do you want to investigate them?" Kim Zhiyuan was puzzled.
She didn’t attend the charity gala because of something, but she heard about what happened there.
She remembered that the news said the two people who crashed in seemed to be Chi Enen’s biological father and titular mother. They were extremely embarrassed, crying and causing trouble at the banquet, demanding money from Chi Enen, and accusing her of being unfilial, extremely disgraceful.
Why would Xi Zelie be concerned about this matter?
And even specifically seek her out for help?
Kim Zhiyuan was a bit confused, "Do you want to take this opportunity to hurt the Li family?"
But that doesn’t make sense; although this incident caused the Li family to lose face, it wasn’t serious enough to harm them deeply. At most, the related stocks would be affected by gossip and entertainment, dropping slightly, but it wouldn’t hurt the Li family’s core.
Moreover, she believes that with Old Duke Li’s methods, he would definitely retaliate.
If Xi Zelie intervenes now, it is not because of the Li family, then who could it be because of?
Her heart skipped a beat, could it be because...
"No."
"Then why do you want to investigate this matter? It should have nothing to do with you, right? What is your reason for insisting on getting involved in this muddy water?" Kim Zhiyuan’s vague suspicion became increasingly clear, her emotions uncontrollably fluctuating, "Don’t tell me there’s no reason; you don’t even believe that yourself."
"Zhiyuan..." Xi Zelie furrowed his eyebrows.
Kim Zhiyuan stared at his eyes, shocked, baffled, her heart wrenching like a knife, "Is it because of Chi Enen?"
"The person you like is Chi Enen?"
She had imagined countless women Xi Zelie might be interested in, but never considered Chi Enen.
After all, since she knew Chi Enen, Chi Enen had always been with Li Beijue, completely unrelated to Xi Zelie.
Yet, the person Xi Zelie likes turns out to be the entirely unrelated Chi Enen.
She couldn’t believe it, couldn’t understand it, nor did she know why.
How could he fall for Chi Enen? The two of them obviously have no interaction!
If there must be any interaction... Kim Zhiyuan suddenly remembered, Chi Enen seemed to have stayed in Capital City too!
Could it be that during his time in Capital City, he met Chi Enen and had some unknown affairs with her?
