One month later.
Li city.
Although Qiao Yanli would receive text messages from Xia Yanxi from time to time, no one answered every time he called her.
At first, she said she would study abroad for a while, and he had no doubts about it. But as time went by, she didn't answer the phone, which made him feel that things were not as simple as he thought.
Even if you are studying in a closed environment and it is inconvenient to answer the phone, there is always time to rest, right? Moreover, she was on a business trip and seemed to be in a hurry. As soon as he stepped forward, she left behind.
Combined with her unusual behavior a few days before their respective business trips, he really felt that she was hiding something from him.
On this day, after he had a morning meeting, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Back in the office, he called the old lady.
Without turning any corner, he said straight to the point, "Grandma, Yan Xi has been gone for a month."
The old lady was also counting the days every day. Xia Yanxi had not come back after a month of absence, and she had a vague premonition in her heart. Zhou Liu is not an ordinary woman. Even if she is her biological daughter, she will still ruthlessly get rid of her if she gets in her way.
Xia Yanxi ran to confront her. Will something happen
If Xia Yanxi really had some shortcomings and had to leave him... the old lady simply didn't dare to think about it.
When Qiao Yanli saw that the old lady was silent, his voice became a little lower, "Grandma, I didn't want to doubt you, but she has been gone for a month. Although she occasionally sends me text messages, I think it's too abnormal. You Do you know something? Or, did you use the same method two years ago to force her to leave me? "
When the old lady heard this question, she felt very uncomfortable, but she did not get angry at him. She sighed a few times and said, "Go home and I will tell you the whole story."
Qiao Yanli hung up the phone and rushed back to Shengyuan Villa as quickly as possible.
The old lady was sitting in the living room, holding a blue and white porcelain teacup in her hand, sipping tea.
Qiao Yanli sat next to the old lady and asked with a frown, "Where did Yan Xi go?"
The old lady didn't plan to hide it from Qiao Yanli anymore. She sighed and said, "Yan Xi already knows about the grudge between you and her mother. She went to Zuoguo to find her."
When Qiao Yanli heard this, the lines on his face tensed up instantly, and a cold light reflected in his deep black eyes, "Who told her?" He kept it secret because he didn't want her to get involved in such a storm. He was afraid She couldn't bear it.
The old lady put down the porcelain cup in her hand and glared at Qiao Yanli, "Speaking of which, I also want to ask you, why did you hide the fact that Xia Wenna is still alive from me?"
"Have you ever entered my study?"
The old lady shook her head, "I didn't enter your study. In short, I know that Xia Wenna is still alive, and she is Zhou Liu who changed her name!"
Qiao Yanli's frown deepened, and there was an extremely cold look on his handsome face, "Grandma, let me ask you, did you say that Xia Yanxi learned everything?"
"no."
Qiao Yanli nodded, "Okay." After saying that, he stood up and strode upstairs.
Opening the darkroom of the study, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the document bag placed on the table. If he remembered correctly, the document bag he placed at that time was facing the portrait of his mother, and the current position is between the portraits of his mother and sister.
This document has been tampered with.
