Chapter 367: Lemony night-suit
Chapter 367: Lemony night-suit
The next day, Tang Li was discharged from the hospital and she moved back to her new villa. The cause behind her injury was concluded as the bloodhound losing control momentarily.
But Tang Li was not convinced by that. All that time, Ye Lan was standing in front of her so one thing she noticed was that although the dog was vicious because of its breed, but it was pretty obedient to Ye Lan.
Considering the deadly glares that she received from the woman, Tang Li would not be surprised if Ye Lan let the dog loose on purpose to injure her. But then again, she did not have any proof. She retrieved the CCTV footage of that store but there was nothing strange in it. The dog just started struggling all of a sudden before pouncing on her.
So, Tang Li did not mention it to Mo Yuhan when he called her. First of all, she had no evidence but she did not doubt that he would trust her blindly regardless of anything. Secondly, Ye Lan is Ye Jie's sister and Ye Jie is Mo Yuhan's friend and that made the matter all more complicated.
She stayed inside the villa for the next two days under the pretense of recuperating. To Mo Yuhan, she was making it look like she was taking more rest so that her leg injury could heal.
But in reality, something else was transpiring behind the closed gates of the mansion.
Inside Tang Li's bedroom.
Tang Li was sitting on a modernized black throne with one of her legs crossed above her another. Her waist-length hair was styled in a beautiful thick braid and she was wearing a cute white night suit that had small lemons printed all over it.
Her getup was certainly not something she would prefer and her dark face was attesting to the fact she did not like it a bit.
Li Yu and Si Xiu looked at each other speechlessly before averting their gazes towards the culprit.
Mark was sleeping on Tang Li's luxurious king-sized bed with one of his elbow propped up in a pillow as he supported on his fist. In his other hand, he was holding a bunch of ruby roman grapes dangling it near his mouth.
His tongue peeked out as he frivolously licked a group before plucking it from the bunch, "Rich people and their deep pockets. How wonderful," he murmured as he looked at his friend who was sulking.
Feeling two pressing stares on his handsomeness, he tilted his head to the two people who were standing beside Tang Li, "TskLovebirds.." He clicked his tongue. It was just recently that he found his soul sister but she was busy chasing after her man and it made him feel more alone. Maybe, he should go for some one-night-stands.
Noticing their curious stares, he said, "What? You are curious of the reason your boss is wearing this lemon night suit?"
Despite his curiosity, Li Yu maintained a long face but Si Xiu eagerly nodded her head.
Mark smiled mysteriously. It was the third day since Tang Li was discharged from hospital and he had this cute lemon night suit designed especially for her. This made it to the headlines that the chief designer of W.M Fashions launched his latest design and surprisingly it was something he never did before; a comfy lemony night suit.
"Your boss is fond of eating lemons since she was a kid. She even stole"
"Mark Wilson!!" Tang Li's cold voice.
Mark coughed, "What I mean is that she can even steal lemons from others," The lady is so fond of sour that she can even steal someone's love letter, he added in his mind.
'Knock Knock.'
"Enter."
Soon, two bodyguards stepped inside her bedroom. One of them was the leader of the group who she had commanded to lay low in the shopping mall that day.
"You've investigated the thing I've asked you to?" Tang Li looked at them.
Li Yu and both her bodyguards nodded.
Tang Li leaned back on her seat, "Start the report," She said.
But there was no response from them. She tilted her head upwards only to find all of them staring at Mark with a doubtful gaze.
"Speak," she said again.
Both the bodyguards hesitated, "Young Miss, all of this shouldn't be discussed in front of outsiders. Even though the person is your trusted one, we can't say when things will end up being against your favor."
Li Yu nodded agreeing with them, "These are confidential matters."
Mark sighed, "Well then, I'll go out."
"Stay there," Tang Li said just as the man was about to sit upon the bed.
Mark looked at her, feeling touched. Look at her level of trust in him.
But her next words poured cold water all over his heightened emotions, "Treat him like a wallflower. Even if you hand over a bomb to him, he will end up blasting himself first," She nonchalantly said.
"_" Mark clicked his tongue at her insulting words before eating grapes once again.
The rest of the people in the room realized that Tang Li would not change her mind.
Li Yu spoke up first, "I have investigated the Huangfus thoroughly but they are still a mystery. Two decades ago, they were on a decline until the enigmatic Master of Huangfu Family came back with his daughter, Huangfu Lin who is their current head. And the Master Huangfu soon disappeared. The elders are supportive of their current head. No inner struggles in the family. Regarding their royaltynot many people know that they are the fourth royal family."
Tang Li sighed. As expected, there was nothing new except for the information that she got to know from Mo Yuhan.
Then, it would be better for her to contact Huangfu Lin at this moment.
Just as she was about to say something, Li Yu's phone rang twice indicating a message notification.
As soon as he checked the text, he stiffened.
"What is it?" Tang Li asked.
