Chapter 415: Chapter 422

Just as she felt herself becoming unsteady and about to fall, accompanied by a cry of alarm, she fell directly into someone’s arms.

“Sorry, I’m so sorry.”

Her back was pressed against a firm body, and after regaining her balance, she hurried to move away.

But he grasped her small hand from behind.

She froze.

Suddenly, the aura behind her felt incredibly familiar.

Indeed, as she slowly turned around, she met those familiar, clear eyes.

Therein still lingered his unresolved worry.

Lu Xiao tightened his grip on her small hand, holding it in his palm.

When she was swept away by the crowd, disappearing in an instant, his heart suddenly tightened.

Although he knew he would definitely find her, he definitely would, deep down there was still an inevitable, deep tugging.

Fearing.

Fearing she would disappear.

When Wen Xian saw it was him, she immediately went up to hug him tightly, burying herself in his embrace.

And Lu Xiao, looking down at her, firmly said,

“Wen Xian, promise me one thing.”

“What, what thing?” She was still somewhat disoriented.

Lu Xiao:

“You must remember, no matter when in the future, wherever you are, if you get lost, if you wander off, promise me that you won’t just run around. I will come to find you at the last place we met.”

Wen Xian’s heart trembled slightly.

“Okay, I promise you.”

…

Atop a high-rise in the downtown CBD.

A man with both hands in his suit pockets was staring out a floor-to-ceiling window, his handsome and upright figure faintly reflected on the glass.

And the person behind him was saying something with a somewhat frightened tone:

“President Li, the celebrity surnamed Wen, her boyfriend, I have found out that he is a shareholder in several companies.”

Li Tingze, upon hearing this, didn’t turn around, but his gaze swept slightly backward, saying coldly,

“Just a shareholder of a few companies? What’s there to fear?”

It’s just about having some money.

The assistant, hearing this, felt somewhat shattered inside.

Because what shocked him was not these identities, but another identity! This was something nobody could have expected!

He hesitated, then said,

“It’s just, President Li, that’s only his sideline; his main job isn’t in Beijing, but in, in…”

“Where!?”

Li Tingze gradually lost his patience, his brow slightly furrowed.

“In Qinghai.”

The assistant steeled himself and added, after a pause, “Specifically, it’s the Kekexili territory.”

Do the following words even need to be more specific…?

He thought, having said this, it was already clear enough.

Last time they left Qinghai, President Li had already told that Wu guy to kill the captain of the Kekexili territory.

Whoever blocks their path, just kill them.

Indeed.

As these words fell, Li Tingze’s lean body slightly stiffened.

The assistant only felt the air suddenly become dead silent.

Even the sound of breathing seemed to disappear.

Making him even more afraid to breathe.

He had no idea what President Li was thinking at this very moment.

This man was named Lu Xiao.

He had verified that he was indeed the captain of that territory, their archenemy in that area, the person they wanted dead.

But now it appeared that they had failed because he had already come to Beijing.

But why would he come to Beijing?

With such an identity, why would he go to such a desolate place to be the captain of a rescue team?

Too many doubts.

And the worst part was him coming to Beijing — it was following the trail to find the manipulators behind everything in Qinghai — them.

And now—
