Becoming Audacious After Marriage: Madam, Please Keep A Low Profile Chapter 9
Advertisement
Seeing that Li Beichen had hung up, Xing Ye casually asked, "She's at Milan Hotel, are you going or not?"
"You think I'd go?"
Li Beichen's gaze was deep and obscure. The entire living room seemed to have hit the tip of the iceberg. It was so cold it was bone-chilling.
Er…
It was just a casual remark, how did it end up infuriating Li Beichen?
If anything, he looked exceptionally frustrated tonight. Was it because of the woman lying beside him?
Heh, wasn't that kind of interesting.
Xing Ye raised his eyebrows and leaned back on the sofa helplessly. Putting away his insufferably arrogant expression, he said in a serious tone, "Who do you think is the person who had plastic surgery done to look exactly like her?"
"Li Beiming will be released from prison in one month."
Li Beichen took a puff of his cigarette. The smoke slowly wafted out of his thin lips, a lingering trail on his handsome face, making him look even more unfathomable.
"Do you think he's behind this?"
"Other than him, who else would dare?"
"Have you forgotten about the other woman called Qiao Wenqian?"
Hearing Qiao Wenqian's name, Li Beichen's deep eyes instantly narrowed. Although Li Beichen had retracted his emotions after just a few seconds, Xing Ye had seen it, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Li Beichen, didn't you announce to the media that your wedding would be held in a month to lure Qiao Wenqian out?"
"Four years ago, she despised you. She hated you for treating her as an obstacle. She hated you for sending her abroad. That's why she disappeared so resolutely.
"You've secured your position as the CEO of Yuzun Group, and you didn't spare your manpower and financial resources to turn the world upside down to bring her back. Why did you want to lure her out with a wedding message now? Sigh, I don't understand you."

Qiao Wenqian, Qiao Wenqian…
Xing Ye's words reminded Li Beichen of something.
The past events raged in his mind. It was like a tidal wave that covered the heavens and the earth.
Four years ago, in order to snatch Yuzun from Li Beiming, Li Beichen had to get rid of an obstacle like Qiao Wenqian. He did not consider her feelings at all and cruelly sent Qiao Wenqian out of the country.
It had been four years since he had been the CEO of the Yuzun Group.
But she didn't come back.
Not only that, she despised him because of it. It was as if she had deliberately hidden at the ends of the world to prevent him from finding her.
Li Beichen exhaled a puff of smoke and collected his thoughts. He said calmly, "Are you so sure that the woman who was auctioned was arranged by Wenqian?"
"Qiao Wenqian has never been a simple woman." As he said this, Xing Ye glanced at Yuxuan, who was sleeping soundly on the sofa.
For no reason, he felt a little frustrated and frowned slightly.
"If that woman was really arranged by Qiao Wenqian, then she has been attracted back to the country by the news of your marriage. How are you going to deal with the arranged marriage with the chief executive of Sophia?"
"In one month, I will give Shi Yuxuan the wedding of the century." Li Beichen said calmly. His decisiveness surprised Xing Ye.
"Since Qiao Wenqian has already been lured out by the news of your marriage, why do you still want to go ahead with it?"
Xing Ye did not continue speaking. He looked straight at Li Beichen, wanting to search for information from his indifferent and cold body. However, Li Beichen's eyes were like the depths of the dark pool, a forbidden zone. No one could see any ripples.

"Do you think my marriage to the daughter of the chief executive of Sophia was to lure Qiao Wenqian out? Ridiculous. Why do I have to find her?"
"Why else would you marry Shi Yuxuan?"
It was increasingly hard for Xing Ye to see through him. Was the arranged marriage held so they could make use of Sophia's power to help Yuzun rise to power?
If these words were to be leaked out, people would definitely laugh their heads off.
The Yuzun Group was famous in the country. Was there a need for it to cling to Sophia for help?
