Chapter 669: Wen Li stands in front of Lu Xixiao’s gun
Upon hearing that Wen Li was coming, Qi Yu, who was originally half-dead, immediately got up from the bed with his injuries and took care of himself, but his face was still haggard, which made him frown in annoyance.
He stared at the mirror depressedly for a long time before going downstairs.
Leo, lying quietly on the carpet, stared at the stairs leading to the second floor. The moment Qi Yu appeared, his whole world lit up. He could clearly feel that Qi Yu's mood had improved, so he trotted towards him with anticipation, humming with joy. After Qi Yu touched his head, he wagged his tail with joy.
Leo was sent here by Ming two days ago.
Ah Ming was angry that Qi Yu had crossed Wen Li's red line, but he was also worried about Qi Yu's condition. He was afraid that Qi Yu would be devastated and suffer physical and mental damage, so he sent Leo over to keep him company. However, Leo meant too much to Qi Yu. When Qi Yu saw it, he thought of Wen Li, which made him even more painful.
So after Leo was sent here, he was ignored by him.
Qi Yu: "Ali will be here soon."
He had just shared the good news with Leo when he caught a glimpse of a figure appearing at the door. He looked over and saw Lu Xixiao, who came with ill intentions. The smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and a flash of coldness and disappointment crossed his eyes - Lu Xixiao was still alive.
Wen Li, who appeared next, lit up his eyes again, but they were still dim and he could hardly force a smile.
It turned out that Ali was not here to see him.
It doesn't matter, as long as I can see her.
Qi Yu looked at Wen Li with eyes full of greed and longing.
He completely ignored Lu Xixiao who was striding towards him, until Lu Xixiao grabbed his collar and angrily questioned him, "Did you instigate Dick?!"
Leo, who was protecting his master, growled and opened his mouth wide to do something to Lu Xixiao, but was stopped by Wen Li: "Leo."
Although Wen Li temporarily stopped Leo's attack, he did not let Leo retract his claws. It was Qi Yu who comforted Leo.
Qi Yu then met Lu Xixiao's fierce eyes and said with some amusement: "If you are sick, go to the hospital and get treated. Don't go crazy with me."
"I'm not in the mood to waste my fucking time with you. Did you do it or not?!" Lu Xixiao let go of Qi Yu, pulled out the gun from his waist, loaded the bullet, and pointed the gun directly at Qi Yu's forehead.
"Lu Xixiao." Fearing that Lu Xixiao would shoot in a rage, Wen Li quickly stepped forward, grabbed the gun in Lu Xixiao's hand and stood between the two of them.
Lu Xixiao's finger on the trigger trembled slightly in rage. He tried his best to restrain his murderous intent: "If you want to kill me, just come at me. Or are you just hiding in the gutter and attacking a child?"
Qi Yu steadied himself and sneered, "I understand. The child is in trouble, and you failed in your duty, yet you insist on throwing mud on me. But shouldn't you use your brain or perjure yourself? I instructed Dick? Director Lu really thinks highly of me."
"It doesn't matter whether you admit it or not, you deserve to die anyway!" Lu Xixiao, who didn't intend to kill anyone by mistake, was about to pull the trigger, but Wen Li pressed the muzzle of the gun with her thumb, and Lu Xixiao's gaze turned to her.
Without evidence, Wen Li certainly couldn't sit idly by.
But Lu Xixiao still felt hurt by Wen Li's actions.
His eyes, etched with murderous intent, now had a hint of heartache. Wen Li sensed this and felt even worse. She said, "Calm down. We haven't figured everything out yet." She then turned her head to Qi Yu behind her and said, "Dick said it was you who ordered him to do it."
Qi Yu's eyes fell on Wen Li's profile. Facing Wen Li, he couldn't be as stress-free as he was when dealing with Lu Xixiao. His lips moved, and after two or three seconds of silence, he spoke: "Ali, do you believe him?"
Wen Li: "Dick has been to Manling."
Qi Yu: "Maybe he passed by here while fleeing for his life." He also reminded Lu Xixiao: "Chief Lu, don't let anyone take advantage of you."
Qi Yu's refusal to admit his mistake made Lu Xixiao furious. He gritted his teeth until it hurt to keep his wits about him. He squeezed out a few words and ordered Lu Qi: "Pass on my order. Have Badman lead the troops to attack Gary and capture Abel's substitute!"
He then said to Wen Li, "I told you, you underestimated his abilities. The person who truly controls Gary might be standing behind you. It might have been him from the beginning, or it might have been him who turned to you because he was afraid of being exposed after he backstabbed you more than three months ago. If it's him, do you still think he's incapable of controlling Dick?"
Qi Yu lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Li, and the expression in his eyes changed slightly.
Lu Xixiao's words caused Wen Li's expression to shift several times. She recalled Abel's incompetent behavior when Gary was in dire straits, Abel's sudden proposal for peace talks, and everything that happened during the talks. Her heart began to relax a little, and her grip on the gun unconsciously tightened. She collected her thoughts, slowly loosened her grip on the gun, turned to face Qi Yu, stared into his eyes, and asked, "Is this true?"
