In the hall waiting for Lou Xi, was none other than Xi Siwei.

This man who followed her all the way from Nancheng, was really persistent like a haunting spirit.

Perhaps he thought that Qin Mobai had woken up; although he hadn’t fully recovered yet, one day Qin Mobai would return to his former self, and then Xi Siwei wouldn’t have many days left to act arrogantly.

Thinking of this, Lou Xi felt a bit more confident, and even her gaze at Xi Siwei carried a touch of nonchalance.

However, Lou Xi still had to remain calm; if Xi Siwei sensed anything and found out Qin Mobai was still alive, would he once again make an attempt on his life?

Until there was no chance of error, Lou Xi couldn’t let anyone threaten Qin Mobai’s safety.

She slightly lifted her chin and walked out, pretending not to see Xi Siwei there.

But that didn’t stop Xi Siwei from coming over to meet Lou Xi.

"Lou Xi, regarding the matter of that plot of land, I need to talk to you," Xi Siwei got straight to the point, knowing that if it were a private matter, Lou Xi would definitely not be willing to talk to him. Xi Siwei felt quite desperate about this - what could he do?

From the very beginning, his approach was wrong, and after that, no matter what he did, he couldn’t change Lou Xi’s view of him.

He thought about someday cunningly seizing the opportunity to confine Lou Xi, keeping her in a gilded cage, and eventually Lou Xi would get used to the lifestyle in the cage and become completely obedient to him.

Thinking of that scene filled Xi Siwei with motivation.

"If I remember correctly, you cannot meddle in the Qin Family’s affairs. At the last board meeting, you already overstepped your bounds. If you insist on interfering, you can only follow the contract you signed back then..." which was the agreement Qin Mobai forced Xi Siwei to sign, waiving his inheritance rights to the Qin Family.

"That contract is already void," Xi Siwei said.

Lou Xi didn’t believe it. How could that contract be void?

"If you don’t believe me, call back and ask the board members. Now that my cousin has passed away, the Qin Family can’t go a day without a leader. I initially refused, but I can’t just watch the Qin Family fall."

How did that saying go?

Hypocritical.

Looking at Xi Siwei, Lou Xi thought of those words.

Claiming it was for the good of the Qin Family, what Xi Siwei really wanted was nothing less than the entire Qin Family and the Qin Family business, wasn’t it?

"I hope you won’t regret what you’re doing now," Lou Xi touched on it lightly. If Xi Siwei could turn back, the final outcome might not be too tragic.

But if he insisted on going his own way, Lou Xi and Qin Mobai would definitely not spare him.

"My biggest regret is letting you marry Qin Mobai."

"Mr. Xi, please be mindful of your status," Ji Nanming suddenly spoke up. He could see clearly now that this man who kept calling Qin Mobai "cousin" was in love with his cousin’s woman.

So, perhaps all of this was an act of revenge in the name of love because Xi Siwei didn’t get the woman he wanted?

Matters of the heart can be quite scary sometimes.

"Then let me remind you as well, Mr. Ji, to keep your distance from Lou Xi."

The two men locked eyes, tension filling the air.

Seeing this scene, Lou Xi couldn’t help but feel a headache.

What kind of situation was this again?

"If you all want to talk, keep talking, I’m leaving first." Lou Xi didn’t want to see Xi Siwei anymore. After saying this, she walked out of the hotel and saw Ed’s car outside.

Xi Siwei saw Lou Xi was leaving and wanted to follow her.

But Ji Nanming blocked his way.
