Li Qing put the torn pocket towel into his pocket, then took off his coat and handed it to Su Xiaomei: "put it on and we'll go back to Lushui villa."

As the voice fell, Li Qing turned and hurried along the street.

Su Xiaomei covered her back with a wool coat and followed up a few steps. She saw that Li Qing was taking out her mobile phone to make a phone call.

"Call Lao Qian?" Su Xiaomei couldn't help asking.

"Shh." Li Qing made a silent gesture and stopped again.

The phone was quickly connected. Su Xiaomei tilted her head and listened carefully. It was vaguely a woman's voice. It was obviously not Qian Liming.

"Why are you so fast?"

Li Qing gently tugged at the corner of his mouth: "pay attention to your words."

"What's the matter?"

"It's impolite to say that a man is fast."

There was silence in the mobile phone for a while before the woman's pleasant voice, which was obviously different from the previous meaning, sounded again: "Li Qing, be serious."

"I'm serious." Li Qing smiled. "Something has changed today."

Before the other party asked questions, Li Qing continued: "I met Qi Jiacheng tonight. He made trouble at the birthday party and was put out in advance by the bodyguards."

"And then?"

"I also left ahead of time. I stayed outside to seize the opportunity, taught the whole family a lesson, and broke one of his forearms." Li Qing paused slightly, "but don't worry, he doesn't know it's me."

"Do you think... He will think it's the Jiang family? Won't he doubt you?"

Li Qingdao: "I don't think so. Tonight, the Jiang family's attitude towards Qi Jiacheng is very cold, and the two sides are obviously going to fall out. I ask you to do me a favor. If Qi Jiacheng is attacked outside the Jiang family, the police may participate in the investigation. If they transfer the surveillance video on the street, I may still be exposed."

"You are too self assertive. It may not be in our favor to involve the whole family."

Li Qing's lips slightly lifted: "I know, but it must be good for me."

"Hum, selfish guy..." the other party snorted unhappily and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, I'll arrange it. That street seems very remote. I guess the surveillance video should have been broken for a long time."

"Thank you." Li Qing smiled and nodded. "Although we didn't make a deal tonight, the Jiang family seems to be in a hurry. If my expectation is not bad, Jiang Junming will ask me out again tomorrow."

"Well, don't screw it up again."

"Don't worry, that's it. I'll contact you when there's news." Li Qing said, hung up the call and reached out to stop a taxi coming from a distance.

Su Xiaomei asked, "who are you talking to?"

"Inspector General Zhong Ruoxi." Li Qing answered Su Xiaomei's question without hesitation, and then stretched out his hand to open the door of the taxi parked in front of him, "let's go back."

The two got on the taxi and returned to Lushui villa all the way.

"Tonight... Thank you. Have a rest early." after returning to Lushui villa, Li Qing stood under the street lamp and said to Su Xiaomei.

"Well, you'd better have a rest earlier." Su Xiaomei gently clicked her snow-white chin and turned back.

"Hello!" Li Qing shouted behind her, "you are so beautiful tonight. That dress suits you very well."

Su Xiaomei twisted her head, gave Li Qing a white look, and then went back without saying a word.

Li Qing turned around with a smile, stepped up the steps, opened the door and walked into the living room.

Qian Liming is sitting on the sofa drinking himself, but he is obviously not in his usual leisurely state.

Li Qing glanced at him: "I didn't see a bodyguard outside the door."

"Let them go down and have a rest." Qian Liming leaned lazily on the sofa. "You live here, big brother. You don't need those wastes. Just let me be quiet."

Li Qing took off her coat and put it on the sofa. Then she poured a glass of water and sat down opposite Qian Liming: "what are you doing?"

"HMM." Qian Liming nodded and leaned forward slightly. "Brother, Miss Lisa called tonight."

Li Qing was quite surprised, with a slight pick on the tip of her eyebrow: "Oh? She didn't call me. What's the situation?"

"She asked for your latest news and mentioned that you asked her to check the two pharmaceutical factories run by Lord Wales last time."

Li Qing drank water: "well, this is what I asked her to check when I left Mingtai last time. Do you have eyebrows?"

"I don't know. She didn't tell me."

Li Qing looked at Qian Liming with a pair of eyes: "since she didn't tell you, why is this expression?"

Qian Liming tilted his big head and frowned: "Miss Lisa tonight is very strange. When she asks you for news, she always has a feeling of prying into the truth. It's very different from usual."

Li Qing couldn't help wondering, "what does this mean?"

"Miss Lisa often calls me to ask about you. For example, what she has done recently and what trouble she has encountered." Qian Liming smiled awkwardly. "I can feel that she always cares about you. But tonight is different. She seems to have something on her mind."

Li Qing temporarily ignored the fact that Qian Liming had been providing his own information to Lisa, and looked dignified: "do you mean..."

"She doubts you."

"Doubt me what?"

"It's hard to say."

Li Qing's face changed slightly. After being silent for a while, he nodded gently: "I see. I'll call her later."

"Well, brother, you should have a rest early." Qian Liming got up with a bottle of wine and slowly went upstairs.

Li Qing stared at Qian Liming's back and disappeared at the entrance of the stairs. The color of doubt in his eyes became more intense.

He sat quietly on the sofa alone for a while. Near ten o'clock, Li Qing went to take a hot bath.

He went back to his room, picked up his cell phone and dialed the overseas call.

The time difference between Italy and Lingang is about six hours, that is, 10 p.m. is equivalent to 4 p.m. in Italy.

Waiting for a long time, no one answered. Li Qing hung up and fell into deep thought. He thought it unlikely that Lisa didn't hear the bell. The most likely situation was that the woman didn't plan to answer her phone for the time being.

This is probably the first time that Li Qing has known Lisa for several years.

What the hell is going on? What does this woman suspect?

With full of questions, Li Qing dialed Wenyang's number again. After the last separation, Wen Yang went to Italy with Qin Wu Dynasty and became Lisa's personal bodyguard.

The call was quickly connected, and Wen Yang's excited voice came from it: "brother, this is your first call after I went abroad."

When he said this, Li Qing was a little embarrassed: "Oh, how are you and Qin Wu Dynasty?"

"It's OK. It's just a little boring. That bastard is dishonest with a broken hand and doesn't work all day. You know I don't like to stay with him." Wen Yang said endlessly, "by the way, your son is about to turn old? I've made a total with Qin Wu Dynasty. If I can spare time, I'll go back and meet my little nephew."

"OK, but he was born in August last year. It's only February now and there's only half a year left." Li Qing nodded with a smile. "The little guy has begun to talk now. When you come back, you should also call uncle."

"Oh, there's still so long..." Wen Yang shouted, "brother, I really miss you. It's better when we were in Yanjing. In August this year... I don't know if Lisa will have additional arrangements..."

Li Qing finally found a breakthrough and hurriedly asked, "what's Lisa doing recently? It's hard for you to follow her?"

"Ah, it's good these two days," Wen Yang said with a smile. "Lisa has gone to England without me and Qin Wu Dynasty."

"Didn't take you?" Li Qing frowned. "How could she not take you?"

"I don't know why that woman is crazy this time, but Qin WuChao and I are very happy. Lisa has too many problems, and most people can't afford to serve her." Wen Yang said, "but she's going to England this time because of what you told me last time."

Li Qingming asked, "what's the matter?"

"Just... Didn't you ask her to investigate the Lord of Wales last time," Wenyang reminded. "The latest news is that the Lord of Wales died of a cerebral hemorrhage last week."

"Ah?" Li Qing sat up from the bed. "Dead? Are you sure it's a normal death?"

Wenyang replied, "it should be that with your previous explanation, and the Lord of Wales has some friendship with Lisa's mother, so she has to make a special trip to attend the old man's funeral this time. She has been away for about four or five days and should be back soon."

Li Qing asked again, "have you found out anything about the two pharmaceutical factories controlled by the Lord of Wales?"

"Ah, Lisa is looking into it herself, and she's making it mysterious." Wenyang said in an old-fashioned way. "In addition, she's also very interested in Demeter you asked to investigate last time. I guess she's going to make some progress and show off in front of you. Women, that's all."

"Well, I see." Li Qing nodded and chatted with Wen Yang for a while before hanging up.

"How could this happen..." Li Qing put down his cell phone, looked up at the ceiling and narrowed his eyes slightly.

He thought for a long time before he suddenly realized the secret connection in the series of events.

The conflict with Demeter, a mysterious organization, is because the other party suddenly spread its power into the port. The line of Lord of Wales in London came from Xue Yuexin's help from the north of Hong Kong to Mingtai.

These two aspects had nothing to do with each other, but as Li Qing handed them over to lisa'er for investigation at the same time, it seemed that Li Qing kneaded them together very stiffly.

But before that? Is there really no relationship between them?

Li Qing suddenly realized that he might have ignored an extremely important clue all the time. The two things that seem to be completely irrelevant have already been implicated by one person in a very secret way. Lisa saw the secret by chance.
