Everyone turned to look at Sheng Yize in unison .
Panting, the assistant handed his phone to Sheng Yize . A paused video was on the screen .
Sheng Yize took it, his fingers trembling slightly . He then tapped the play button and saw An Xiaxia and Li Fanxing .
Everything had been recorded, from their conversation to when Li Fanxing cut An Xiaxia’s face with the knife .
Sheng Yize bolted to his feet and asked in a grave tone, “Where did this video come from?”
“There was a delivery for you at the company, and in it was a flash drive with this video…” explained the assistant . He then suggested, “Could it be Miss Li who took Mrs . Sheng away?”
Sheng Yize’s face turned grim . “It’s time to pay the Li family a visit!”
The Li family .
They entered the house, and the air reeked of alcohol . Li Jiang was a drunken heap on the floor as he mumbled, “Drink… I need a drink…”
Sheng Yize gave him a kick and asked coldly, “Where’s Li Fanxing?”
“Tch…” Li Jiang chuckled hysterically . “She’s gone! That slut… left me…”
The fire had only happened last night . Where could Li Fanxing have gone?
Sheng Yize made his instructions very clear: find Li Fanxing, even if the entire city had to be turned upside down!
The long-distance bus station .
Li Fanxing held her hand to her chest . She had only gotten surgery last night to treat the gunshot wound, and was in no shape to fly . Moreover, she didn’t want to be traced, so she had chosen to travel by bus, which didn’t require ID .
When her bus finally arrived, she hurried toward it .
A group of men wearing black suits blocked her way .
Seeing this, Li Fanxing immediately turned to run . However, she was pregnant and injured . The nimble bodyguards caught up with her almost immediately and brought her to a black Cayenne .
There was only one passenger in the vehicle .
It was Sheng Yize .
Li Fanxing’s stomach churned at his cold glance, but she managed to keep her composure . “Mr . Sheng, how may I help you?”
“Heh . ” Sheng Yize smirked . “Miss Li, I see you’re doing well . ”
“Thank you for your concern . I am pretty well . ” Li Fanxing lowered her head and pulled the face mask she was wearing up a little higher .
That move only drew more attention to her face and the look in Sheng Yize’s eyes turned colder .

“Miss Li, may I invite you to join me for lunch?”
That caught Li Fanxing by surprise . She didn’t know what Sheng Yize was getting at .
Could it be that he didn’t know what had really happened?
At that thought, Li Fanxing felt utterly relieved . She then climbed into the car, smiling awkwardly . “If Mr . Sheng wants to dine with me, you only need to give me a phone call . You didn’t have to go through all this trouble…”
Sheng Yize smiled and moved closer, making Li Fanxing break into a cold sweat . However, Sheng Yize only chuckled and said, “Miss Li, you haven’t buckled up yet . ”
“Th- thank you…” Li Fanxing sighed with relief and stole a glance at Sheng Yize .
He was as handsome as ever, and everything he did had an irresistible charm to it .
However, this remarkable man had never been hers .
Li Fanxing clenched her fists involuntarily .
The car stopped outside a Western-style restaurant and Li Fanxing saw that it was one of the most expensive restaurants in Yu City .
Why would Sheng Yize bring her here?
She was still wondering when Sheng Yize’s deep, mellow voice rang out . “I think this is where we met for the first time . ”
That jogged Li Fanxing’s memory .
Back then, she had still been with Qi Yanxi, who had been nothing but affectionate toward her . He hadn’t cared how expensive the restaurant was, and had brought her here just to try the foie gras .
Li Fanxing paused . Instinct was telling her that there was definitely something behind Sheng Yize’s gentle facade!
