Chapter 30

As Li Luxi drew near, the scent of her mixed perfume made Jian Xi frown.

Jian Xi quickly got up and headed out of the store, where he sneezed several times in a row outside. His eyes even welled up with tears.

Seeing this, He Qingrou paid no attention to Li Luxi either. She got up from the sofa and went to check on Jian Xi's condition. "Little Seven, are you okay?"

Li Luxi would never miss a chance to talk to He Qingrou, so she followed them outside.

After observing Jian Xi, she noticed his clothes were just ordinary brands. His entire outfit wouldn't be worth more than 50,000 yuan. She wondered where this no name from a no name family had the good fortune to get close to He Qingrou.

But Li Luxi wasn't stupid either. Seeing He Qingrou's unpleasant expression, she realized she shouldn't show disdain anymore!

"Miss, it seems you're allergic to perfume. Why don't you wait outside for now? I can keep He miss company," said Li Luxi with an insincere smile, thinking to herself that Jian Xi should know his place. How could someone like him expect to enter high society?

From Li Luxi's up and down glance, Jian Xi already understood her thoughts. He didn't say anything but took a few more steps back, really not wanting his nose to suffer anymore.

Seeing Jian Xi's discomfort, He Qingrou was incensed. He was perfectly fine until Li Luxi came in and started sneezing nonstop. She wouldn't indulge Li Luxi's behavior, no matter if she was the daughter of Wang Youquan or Li Youquan!

She turned around and looked at Li Luxi impatiently. "Miss Wang, are we that close? Can't you see my sister is allergic to your perfume? Why do you keep leaning in?"

Miss Wang? A trace of dissatisfaction appeared on Li Luxi's face, but she endured it.

He Qingrou was raised with pampering in the He family. Don't let her gentle demeanor fool you. At heart, she was a little spitfire. As long as you didn't provoke her, everything was fine. But if you did, she would explode!

Preoccupied by He Qingrou calling her Miss Wang, Li Luxi didn't notice her referring to Jian Xi as her sister.

Seeing He Qingrou angry, Li Luxi quickly apologized. "Miss He is right. I'm sorry, little sister. I didn't know you were allergic to my perfume. I won't go near you now. You two go ahead. I won't disturb you."

As she turned to leave, the smile on Li Luxi's face gradually faded. She clenched her bag, deforming it. She remembered that girl's face. She had embarrassed her in front of Miss He today. If they met again, she would make sure to embarrass her until she wished she could hide her face in the Pacific Ocean!

This little episode didn't affect their mood for shopping. After the store manager packed up the perfume, He Qingrou took Jian Xi on a shopping spree.

With grandfather seriously ill recently, she hadn't relaxed like this for a long time.

Once the two were tired from shopping, He Qingrou took Jian Xi to get a spa treatment.

Jian Xi's little face turned bright red throughout the full body massage, as it was her first time being rubbed down naked, even if by female staff. She was still very shy.

Seeing Jian Xi's adorable shy expression, He Qingrou found it so cute!

By the time they finished enjoying themselves, the sun was nearly setting. He Qingrou checked the time. "Little Seven, let's go eat first. A new commercial area opened recently in the north of the city. It has many specialty restaurants. Let's go check it out. If the food is good, we can unlock a new map for the future. We're tired of the few places in the downtown area. It's boring."

At the mention of good food, Jian Xi's eyes lit up even more. Compared to shopping, food was much more motivating to her!

So she completely forgot about going to find He Qingchen. She just followed He Qingrou to the new commercial area.

He Group

Xu Yan reminded He Qingchen that it was time to get off work. Glancing at the time, He Qingchen saw it was already 9 pm.

He picked up his phone and called Jian Xi. "Where are you?"

As soon as the call connected, He Qingchen heard Jian Xi's voice in the background. "Oh! I forgot about my brother."

Then, after a few seconds, the noisy sounds quieted down. Next came Jian Xi's coquettish voice, "Bro~ I'm sorry. I got carried away and forgot about you!"

"Hmm, you're truly sincere~" He didn't fuss over it with her. "When will you finish up? I'll come get you," he asked.

"No need, bro. I'll finish up soon. Sister Qingrou said she'd take me home. Have you eaten yet? What do you want to eat? I can bring something back for you. The food here is pretty good." Jian Xi tried to curry favor by asking if he had eaten.

"Oh? Our Xi Xi actually cares if her brother has eaten!" He teased her a bit, then got up, grabbed his coat, and left the office. "Send me your location. I'll come get you. It's not on He Qingrou's way."

After hanging up, Jian Xi sent over her location. Xu Yan asked He Qingchen if he needed a driver, but he declined, telling them to clock out.

The executive elevator went straight down to the basement garage. He Qingchen drove off in his Rolls-Royce Phantom toward the new commercial area in the north of the city.

It really wasn't easy for this new area in the north of the city to open up!

The elevated bridge from the east to the north of the city was supposed to have been completed last year. But for some reason, construction on the last section of the bridge pier just couldn't be finished, no matter what methods were tried.

"So how did it finally get built?" Jian Xi curiously asked while sipping on lemon water.

He Qingrou shook her head. "I heard they had a master come take a look. After he performed some rituals, it was fine!"

Jian Xi frowned, feeling something was off but couldn't pinpoint what. But upon further thought, there was nothing strange about it. Perhaps some roadblock ghosts had interfered, and the master's rituals drove them away, allowing construction to proceed smoothly.

With this rationale, Jian Xi felt resolved. But He Qingrou's tone shifted. "Though it is a bit odd. Since the elevated bridge opened for traffic last month, it seems there have been a lot of accidents. Just half a month ago, my friend got into a minor car accident there. Luckily no one was hurt, just some scrapes."

Hearing this, Jian Xi's brows furrowed even deeper.

She had an uneasy feeling. Her daoist sixth sense told her something was wrong with that bridge!

Her thoughts were interrupted by a phone call. It was He Qingchen.

Before she could say anything after picking up, his voice came through.

"Xi Xi, you'll have to wait a bit for me. There's been a major accident under the overpass, traffic is backed up."
