Lu Ming was moved and these were his heartfelt words. Since they were young, he had wanted to protect her for life.
Li An’an looked at the ambiguous marks on his neck and laughed mockingly. “Then where do you place Xinyi? If there are two of us and you can only choose one, who would it be?”
Lu Ming looked away. “You’re different from her. There’s no need to compare, but your place in my heart is equally important.”
Li An’an asked, “Did you marry her because you love her?”
“An’an, treating you well has nothing to do with whether I love her or not!”
Li An’an looked at the surface of the sea with even more ridicule. “I understand. Then can you answer a question for me? But first, you have to promise me that you won’t tell anyone what I’m going to tell you today!”
Lu Ming felt upset when he saw that she had regained her coldness. He nodded.
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone about our meeting tonight.” There was a hint of excitement in his heart. He had a feeling that the An’an he used to know was coming back.
“Did Li Xinyi ever mention anything about a jade pendant?”
Jade pendant!
Lu Ming recalled the day he went to the Li family. In the conversation between Li Xinyi and Auntie that he had overheard, there seemed to have been a mention of a jade pendant. “I heard Auntie and Li Xinyi talking about it, but I was outside the door and couldn’t hear clearly. They are looking for a jade pendant. It seemed very important! ”
Li An’an was taken aback. As expected, they placed great importance on the jade pendant. “Did you hear anything else?”
Lu Ming shook his head. “An’an, why are you asking about this? If you like it, I can buy one for you!”
With his current ability, he could afford top-grade jade.
“No, I don’t want one. If it’s possible, help me inquire about the origins of the jade pendant. Consider it as my request for your help.”
“Okay, I’ll help you.” Lu Ming felt that it was not a big deal, so he agreed immediately.
“It’s late. I should get back. Call me if you have news about it!” Li An’an left without looking back. Lu Ming stood alone by the beach for a long time, watching her back view.
In a spot nearby.
A black car started up after having parked there for a long time.
On the other side.
Li Xinyi and her assistant, Xiao Tian, emerged from hiding in a forested area after Lu Ming left. Li Xinyi stomped off in the opposite direction, trembling with anger.
Xiao Tian swore, “Li An’an is really something. She actually hooked up with CEO Lu. Xinyi, we must eliminate her tomorrow!”
Li Xinyi was deeply affected and almost fell down several times.
She didn’t expect Lu Ming and Li Anan would meet in secret, and to think Lu Ming had kept it from her. Did Li An’an want to replace her? No way.
Back in her hotel room, Li Xinyi called Liu Luhua. “Mom, come over and help me. Li An’an has hooked up with Lu Ming again! Think of a way to make her hand over the jade pendant and disappear forever! I don’t want to see her ever again!” Li Xinyi roared! Li An’an was the shadow between her and Lu Ming! She had never hated Li An’an more than now. They should never have brought her back from the orphanage!
Li An’an walked back to the hotel alone. She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but she felt an icy gaze on her. It made her feel as if there was a blade stabbed into her back.She shuddered, held her arms and ran towards the hotel lobby, heaving a sigh of relief only when she reached a crowded place.
Although this was a high-end resort, there were also perverts around. She might have been followed by one just then. She was about to return to her room when she happened to look into the distance ahead.
A group of people had surrounded the elevator. All of them were tall and standing upright. They looked like bodyguards.
It was not a strange sight seeing bodyguards in the hotel, but she was stunned when she saw the back of the person walking into the elevator.
The person was very tall with an upright posture, he was in a black bespoke suit. He had a cold and smooth-lined side profile. His jet black hair obscured the corners of his eye, leaving only the perfect contours visible..
