Chapter 493: Chapter 490

He clicked on other files and what appeared were some companies they had cooperated with that had basic illegal operations.

At the same time, the most severe cases involved smuggling of priceless cultural relics and organs of protected wild animals, among others.

Lu Xiao had never imagined that this held an abundance of Li Tingze’s criminal evidence.

With this evidence, it was enough to land him in prison for over a decade.

No wonder, no wonder Li Tingze reached out to Wen Xian. Could it be just to retrieve this USB drive?

And after finding out about his relationship with Wen Xian, he tried to kill them both by running them over with a car, just to silence them.

It must be said, seeing everything in this USB drive shocked him deeply.

He hadn’t expected that so many pieces of criminal evidence would end up in Wen Xian’s hands, and now he had discovered it all.

Truly, with this evidence in hand, he could now mobilize the resources of the police.

Yes, without substantial criminal evidence, the police would not act rashly, even though Li Tingze was committing crimes.

Lu Xiao then contacted a person.

When Wen Xian woke up again, she comfortably stretched on the bed.

Subconsciously, she reached out her hand to the side, but touched nothing.

She opened her sleepy eyes, rubbed them, and gazed at the wooden ceiling of the attic, momentarily disoriented about her whereabouts.

Once she regained her senses, a warmth instantly filled her heart.

The attic curtains were double-layered, one white and one orange, overlapping; the sunlight filtered through, filling the room with a golden glow, full of warmth.

Wen Xian slowly drew back the curtains and the blanket slipped from her shoulders as she got up.

She looked out the window, staring into the distance where the lake shimmered under the sunlight.

The sun brought vitality to everything in the mountains, and even in winter, there was an immense and serene beauty.

She changed her clothes, made the bed and went downstairs where the fully opened curtains let the sunlight warm the tatami.

Because she had gone to bed early the previous night and had slept for a long time, it was only around seven or eight in the morning.

After going downstairs, she did not see Lu Xiao and slightly frowned, but at that moment, she found a small note next to the couch on the wooden coffee table.

On it was Lu Xiao’s bold and uninhibited handwriting:

[I’ve stepped out, but I made breakfast for you, remember to heat it up before eating.]

Upon seeing it, Wen Xian hurried into the small kitchen.

Although she was somewhat disappointed not to see him in the morning, she knew how busy he was, so she thoughtfully did not disturb him.

Besides, she had come this time planning to do her own thing.

Apart from reading books, basking in the sun, and recuperating, she also wanted to—write a screenplay.

Yes, she had shot so many TV dramas and had accumulated a lot of experience, and now she was here to rest, but that didn’t mean doing nothing at all.

It was quiet here and undisturbed, just the right environment for her to brainstorm a screenplay.

After freshening up, Wen Xian reheated the breakfast.

Because previously only Lu Xiao had lived here, the cooking pots and utensils were very simple, and many kitchen appliances were missing.

She saw porridge with goji berries in the pot and slices of toast, sausages, and fried eggs in a frying pan next to it, and two slices of tomato, making a simple sandwich.

It was simple, yet nutritious and extremely healthy.

After eating, she directly washed the dishes and pots, and then—
