C431 He Was Safe and Sound
Early the next morning, there was a sudden cry from Cang Lizi's room. Xiao Chen immediately went up to check on her.
He saw Cang Lizi waving the phone in her hand and said in disbelief, "No more! There was no more news, and there was even news from the empire that refuted the rumors."
When Xiao Chen heard that, he immediately came to her and took her phone to check. As expected, all the news about Hwa Wenfeng did not exist, only the news that the empire refuted the rumors.
"Mr. Xiao, you are really amazing. You must know something, right? Could it be that there is someone behind you who is in the upper echelons of the empire?" Cang Lizi looked at Xiao Chen with joy and said.
Xiao Chen could only smile helplessly. Actually, he himself was not very clear about the exact position of his grandfather, but he should be in a higher position.
So he said, "It's hard to say clearly about this matter. Anyway, I did receive some reliable news last night. Also, you have to tell your friends that this matter cannot be mentioned to anyone anymore."
"Of course I know that. This is a secret. It belongs to Mr. Xiao." Cang Lizi smiled and said.
Xiao Chen smiled helplessly. This was not his secret. He just did not want anyone to be in danger because of this.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was the young mistress of Hwa family, Hwa Xuwan, who called him. Xiao Chen guessed that she was probably going to ask him about what happened last night.
After picking up the phone, a series of questions came from Hwa Xuwan.
"Where are you now? Why did you stop us from doing things last night? Why did all these news suddenly disappear? Can you give me an answer?"
" Miss Hua, don't worry. It's quite troublesome for me to explain this matter now. Actually, you can ask your father if he's more reliable. After all, he returned to the imperial palace last night. He should know more than I do. "
Xiao Chen replied with a slight smile.
Hwa Xuwan probably thought Xiao Chen's words made sense, so she immediately hung up the phone. She probably went to ask her father.
With the crisis resolved, Xiao Chen also felt much more relaxed from head to toe. However, he had forgotten something very important. He was now the son-in-law of Hwa family. Just now, he had called Hwa Xuwan Miss Hua.
Sure enough, Cang Lizi came to Xiao Chen with a face full of suspicion and asked, "Mr. Xiao, aren't you the son-in-law of Hwa family? Why did you call Hwa Xuwan Miss Hua? Could it be that there are some secrets that cannot be told?"
As Cang Lizi spoke, she revealed an expression as if she had seen through everything.
Xiao Chen was stunned. The matter was over, so he relaxed a little. He had forgotten his original plan to come to the capital. Just as he was thinking about how to make up for this lie, Cang Lizi said with a smile, "Mr. Xiao, you don't need to explain anything. I understand. This matter is now a secret between us."
"Huh?" Xiao Chen scratched his head in confusion, then nodded and said, "Then I can only ask Miss Cang Lizi to help me keep it a secret. This is indeed an important secret of mine."
"Of course. Actually, I knew very early on that Mr. Xiao did not come to the capital for ordinary things. In fact, Mr. Xiao does not need to worry about my matters. If you need my help, I will help you without hesitation."
Cang Lizi was still smiling.
Xiao Chen felt that it was a little strange when he saw her like this. Could it be that all of this was caused by him tapping her acupuncture points last night? The current Cang Lizi seemed very different from before. The biggest difference was that the gloomy expression on her face had disappeared.
However, the matter of Cang family had yet to be resolved, and her curse had yet to be lifted. Why did it become like this? Although Xiao Chen couldn't figure it out, he also felt that it wasn't the time to think about this matter. He just shook his head and said:
"I still have to help Miss Cang Lizi solve her problem. Not only do I have to help solve this problem, I also have to help Miss Cang Lizi bring back all the things you have lost!"
Cang Lizi was slightly shocked when she heard this. She did not expect Xiao Chen to make such a big decision to help her. Even though she knew that Xiao Chen had other plans, she still felt a warm feeling from the bottom of her heart.
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't know what my life would have been like." Cang Lizi held Xiao Chen's hand gratefully.
"Don't worry. Everything will be better." Xiao Chen smiled.
"Miss Cang Lizi, it's time to go to work!" An auntie's shout came from outside. This was the auntie who would come every morning. Xiao Chen was very familiar with her, but he had other plans today.
"Okay!" Cang Lizi answered loudly.
"I will go out for a while." Xiao Chen said and quickly went downstairs.
Cang Lizi did not know what Xiao Chen wanted to do, so she went to the bathroom to wash up.
Xiao Chen went downstairs and did not greet Aunt Chang. He just came up and pressed her acupuncture points to lock him in. Then he put his head on her hand and immediately heard Aunt Chang's inner thoughts.
As he expected, she came here every day to call Cang Lizi not because she liked Cang Lizi, but purely because she wanted to complete the curse.
After knowing all of this, Xiao Chen unlocked her acupuncture points.
"What happened to me? Why do I feel that there are some unusual bloodlines in my body?" After undoing her acupuncture points, Aunt Chang twisted her body and said. She seemed to have some feelings about Xiao Chen's acupuncture technique.
However, she was already quite old, so she did not see Xiao Chen's movements clearly. She only felt that something flashed in front of her eyes, so it was still a little strange. Although it was strange, she didn't think too much about it. Today's mission had been completed. She also left Cang Lizi's room and walked towards the outside.
