Chapter 267 Moving in with 1
Li Tao was sent to a mental hospital by the police.
The white hospital room, the monotonous walls, and those equally bewildered eyes made him feel more helpless than ever before.
He knew that his phone was being monitored by the police.
Any phone call or text message could become evidence that could drag him into the abyss.
Therefore, he dared not act rashly and could only silently endure this endless torment.
Every day, Li Tao pretended to cooperate with the doctor's treatment, taking his medicine on time and receiving psychological counseling.
However, his heart could never find peace.
He knew that Master Hei would not let him off easily.
If he fails to complete the mission, an even crueler fate awaits him.
Li Tao often tossed and turned at night, thinking about how to get out of his current predicament.
At the same time, Black Third Master did not stop his operations because of Li Tao's failure.
Instead, he quickly made adjustments and reinstated an assassin known as "Black Demon".
Black Fiend is a capable henchman of Black Third Master, ruthless and skilled in covert operations.
Master Hei believed that Hei Sha would be able to successfully complete the task that Li Tao had failed to accomplish.
Black Master San met with Black Demon in a secluded conference room.
"Li Tao has lost his usefulness,"
Third Master Hei said coldly,
“You must take his place and make sure that Qi Yuxuan and Qiu Ziyue will no longer interfere with our plans.”
Black Fiend nodded, a chill creeping into his eyes:
"Don't worry, I'll handle everything."
Upon receiving the mission, Black Fiend immediately began preparations.
He first studied Qi Yuxuan and Qiu Ziyue's living habits, travel routes, and daily activities.
To avoid arousing suspicion, Black Demon chose the most covert method to approach his target.
He thought to himself, "It's nothing more than Blackie taking a fancy to that little girl."
If we just get the little girl here and put her on long-term hallucinogenic drugs, she'll stay obediently by Blackie's side, and wouldn't that solve everything?
He rented an apartment near Qi Yuxuan's home, observing their movements every day, looking for the best opportunity to strike.
One evening, Hei Sha discovered that Qiu Ziyue had gone shopping alone.
He decided to seize this opportunity and start with her.
Hei Sha followed Qiu Ziyue quietly, keeping a proper distance to avoid being discovered.
Once he was sure there was no one else around, he suddenly quickened his pace, preparing to carry out his plan.
However, Qiu Ziyue seemed to sense something was amiss, and suddenly turned around, her gaze sharp as she looked at Hei Sha.
Hei Sha was wearing a low-brimmed hat and sunglasses, so Qiu Ziyue couldn't see his face clearly.
Black Demon was startled, realizing that his actions had been discovered.
But he did not back down. Instead, he quickly adjusted his strategy, continued to track Qiu Ziyue, and waited for the next opportunity.
Qiu Ziyue was already on guard.
Upon returning home, she immediately informed Qi Yuxuan and her friends about the situation.
The members of Yu Yue Qing Xuan Feng discussed countermeasures together and finally decided to have Qiu Ziyue's whole family move in and live with Qi Yuxuan.
Qiu Ziyue returned home and discussed it with her mother.
"Mom, I want to move to Qi Yuxuan's villa to take care of him."
Qiu Ziyue said softly, her voice filled with unwavering determination.
Upon hearing this, Li Jinfeng frowned slightly, her heart filled with worry.
"Twilight Sparkle, isn't this a bad idea? What will people say?"
She asked hesitantly, a hint of conflict in her eyes.
Qiu Ziyue knew her mother's concerns, but she was not swayed by them.
"Mom, if you're upright, you have nothing to fear. As long as we have a clear conscience, what do other people's gossip matter?"
She looked at her mother with unwavering eyes.
"Besides, Qi Yuxuan has been kind to me, and one should not be ungrateful."
After hearing this, Li Jinfeng fell into deep thought.
She understands her daughter's kindness and gratitude, but she is still worried that the opinions of others will affect their lives.
After all, rumors and gossip in society are always hard to avoid.
“Twilight Sparkle, I understand your good intentions, but what if someone misunderstands? That wouldn’t be good for your future reputation.”
Li Jinfeng sighed softly, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
Qiu Ziyue stepped forward, took her mother's hand, and said gently:
“Mom, I will handle these things well. Besides, I’ve already thought it through. You can move in with me and help me oversee everything, so there won’t be any problems.”
Li Jinfeng was stunned for a moment, but looking into her daughter's sincere eyes, her heart gradually softened.
She had always thought highly of Qi Yuxuan and believed him to be a trustworthy person.
Thinking of this, she nodded.
"Alright, since you insist, let's go together."
Qiu Ziyue was overjoyed when she saw her mother agree.
She immediately began arranging the relocation.
Besides taking her own belongings, she also decided to move Jingyun, the family's servants, and the parrot Caiyu to the new location.
Qiu Ziyue was busy organizing her clothes and personal belongings.
Li Jinfeng helped out from the side, occasionally offering a few words of advice:
"Ziyue, don't forget to bring some commonly used medicines, and also the little toys that Jingyun likes."
Qiu Ziyue responded with a smile:
"Okay, Mom, everything is arranged."
That afternoon, Qiu Ziyue and Li Jinfeng, along with Jingyun and several servants, moved into Qi Yuxuan's villa without incident.
The parrot Caiyu also moved into Qi Yuxuan's villa with Qiu Ziyue's family.
As soon as it entered the door, it flapped its wings happily and chirped a few times.
The bright feathers shimmered in the sunlight, as if cheering for their new environment.
Looking at Caiyu, Qiu Ziyue felt a sense of relief. She knew that Caiyu liked lively and novel things.
Li Jinfeng followed Qiu Ziyue into the living room, and was about to find a place to sit down and rest when she suddenly heard a childish laugh.
She turned her head and saw a little girl sitting on the carpet playing, looking innocent and naive.
This little girl is Minglan.
Li Jinfeng's gaze was instantly drawn to it, and she couldn't help but step forward to examine it closely.
Whose child is this?
Li Jinfeng asked softly, her voice tinged with doubt.
Seeing this, Qiu Ziyue smiled and explained:
"This is President Qi's daughter, named Minglan."
"Oh dear, Mr. Qi already has a daughter. Since he's already married, it wouldn't be appropriate for us to move here. Let's go back."
"No, Mom."
Qiu Ziyue wanted to explain, but didn't know how.
At this moment, Li Jinfeng's gaze remained fixed on Minglan, and suddenly a look of astonishment flashed in her eyes.
"How come this child looks exactly like Jingyun?"
Qiu Ziyue said with an awkward smile:
"Yes, they do look very similar. But it's probably just a coincidence."
A sense of unease welled up in Li Jinfeng's heart, and she couldn't help but turn to Qi Yuxuan to continue pressing for answers:
"Yuxuan, what's going on? How can these two children look so alike?"
Qi Yuxuan felt a pang of anxiety upon hearing Li Jinfeng's words, but he quickly regained his composure.
A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, feigning nonchalance:
"Oh, this is my daughter, Minglan. She was born to my ex-wife, and she does look somewhat like Jingyun."
Upon hearing this, Li Jinfeng was shocked. She hadn't expected Qi Yuxuan to have such a background, and she began to consider moving back.
"Auntie, don't worry, my ex-wife passed away unexpectedly from an illness, and I am still single, still single."
Qi Yuxuan explained.
Upon hearing this, Li Jinfeng sighed softly and said:
"Oh, I see. The two children look very alike; it's quite interesting. They can play together from now on."
But Qiu Ziyue was unhappy when she heard this. She thought to herself:
"You cunning fox, you liar! What nonsense about an ex-wife and death? You can make up such unlucky things."
She glanced at Qi Yuxuan, whose handsome face showed a hint of embarrassment.
Qi Yuxuan responded to Li Jinfeng's question with apparent ease, but his heart was far from calm.
He knew his words might arouse Li Jinfeng's suspicion, but he had no choice but to continue the lie.
Although Li Jinfeng outwardly accepted Qi Yuxuan's explanation, she was still filled with doubts.
Seeing Qiu Ziyue and Qi Yuxuan's strange expressions, she decided to observe them secretly to see what was going on.
Despite having their own thoughts, the day passed smoothly.
Minglan and Jingyun are siblings after all, and they quickly became friends, playing together with building blocks, their laughter echoing throughout the villa.
Seeing that the villa had temporarily returned to tranquility, Qi Yuxuan pulled Qiu Ziyue into the study.
