Emotionally stable, but continuing to go crazy

Chapter 171 Uninvited Guest

The special assistant that Yuan Ziqian had mentioned came to his mind.

If it was her doing, it would not be impossible. After all, the old man gave her great power and it is very likely that he gave her the management of his work email.

So, what was her intention in sending him an email in the tone of an old man? Was she trying to use this method to make herself completely disappointed in the Li family and resist returning to the Li family?

But if you have a little understanding of what happened back then, you will know how much Li Jinhe himself resists the Li family. Would it be unnecessary to do this?

Facing Wei Zhe'an's question, Li Jinhe did not answer, but just said softly: "Okay, sit back."

Wei Zhe'an cautiously leaned his head out from behind the driver's seat and peered through the windshield in front of him. He saw that the vehicle had already driven quite a distance away from the base and was now driving on the main road back to the city.

Wei Zhe'an climbed back to the passenger seat skillfully, fastened his seat belt, and asked impatiently, "What did you mean by that just now, brother?"

Li Jinhe nodded slightly, then said, "Do you remember the special assistant that Brother Qian mentioned that day?"

Wei Zhe'an nodded repeatedly, and Li Jinhe then slowly expressed his speculation and described in detail what had happened in the past two days.

Wei Zhe'an held Seventeen in his arms, thinking thoughtfully. According to Brother Qian's description, this girl seemed to be quite scheming and deep-minded.

If it was really her who sent the email, wouldn't it be a bit...stupid? Putting aside the question of whether she would be discovered, what was her purpose in doing this? If she was really worried that Li Jinhe would return to the Li family, shouldn't she have checked Li Jinhe's background information first?

"Why don't we let Seventeen investigate it? This matter is indeed a bit weird." Wei Zhe'an raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Jinhe.

Li Jinhe still seemed a little hesitant. He once again told Wei Zhe'an the concerns he had mentioned to Shiqi before.

"Brother, you don't have to think too much. Seventeen also said that the help it can give me now is quite limited. The little goldfish is not of much practical use to me."

Wei Zhe'an stroked Seventeen gently, and Seventeen nodded obediently in response.

However, Li Jinhe still had a trace of hesitation deep in his heart, and only he knew it. In fact, it was nothing more than his chauvinism that was causing trouble.

He did not reject their kindness directly, but chose to delay answering for the time being: "Let's talk about it after we get home."

Wei Zhe'an didn't think it was so complicated and nodded in agreement readily.

On the way back, the two chatted casually, and Li Jinhe was secretly thinking about how to cleverly lead the topic to Wei Zhe'an's family situation in this world.

The phone in Wei Zhe'an's hand vibrated.

He lowered his head reflexively to check, and saw the word "Butler" flashing on the screen.

A row of question marks popped up in his mind, and it took him a while to realize that this was not his phone.

So he handed the phone to Li Jinhe beside him and asked him to take a look.

Li Jinhe turned his head and glanced at the screen, then said casually, "Just answer the phone. It should be the apartment's housekeeper calling."

After getting the reply, Wei Zhe'an felt a little relieved. When he heard the word "housekeeper", his first reaction was that someone from the Li family.

After his brother said that, he remembered that Li Jinhe lived in a high-end apartment with an apartment manager. Wei Zhe'an answered the phone: "Hello?"

However, there was silence on the other end of the phone, as if he was surprised by Wei Zhe'an's voice. After a moment, the other party hesitantly asked, "Hello, is this Mr. Li?"

After hearing this, Wei Zhe'an slowly moved the phone away from his ear, pressed the hands-free button, and at the same time cast an inquiring look at Li Jinhe.

Then he answered into the phone: "Yes, but he is driving and it is not convenient for him to answer the phone. If you have anything to say, you can speak directly and he can hear it."

The housekeeper put aside his doubts, and his tone was both cordial and professional: "Hello, Mr. Li. I am very sorry to bother you. The thing is, there are currently five visitors to your residence, and they all refuse to reveal their identities."

"We have not received any notification regarding any visitors arriving today. Therefore, I would like to check with you whether it is convenient for you to receive these guests?"

Li Jinhe frowned and thought to himself. He had not received any notice from his friends that they were coming to visit him. Could it be that they were "uninvited guests" again?

Ever since his mother's sudden uninvited visit last time, Li Jinhe had specifically instructed the housekeeper that if anyone came without prior notice, they must not be allowed upstairs.

At this moment, Li Jinhe was thinking about who would come to visit him at this time, while responding to the housekeeper's question: "Where are they now?"

The butler replied respectfully: "They have been temporarily placed in the reception hall. Four of them appear to be guards." There seemed to be something else in his words.

Li Jinhe understood immediately, but still asked: "How old is the leader?"

The butler replied carefully, "It's hard to tell the age of the gentleman in charge. He has a dignified demeanor and is dressed elegantly."

Hearing this, Li Jinhe's heart sank, and he had already guessed who the visitor was.

He asked again, "What is their attitude?"

The butler's reply was still flawless: "The gentleman in the lead had a strong aura and was very serious, but he was well-educated and did not behave in a rude manner."

At this point, the two of them were not far from the apartment and would reach the parking lot in a few minutes.

Li Jinhe instructed the housekeeper: "Let them wait there for a while. I will be at the apartment soon."

The butler responded respectfully: "Okay, if you have any needs or need help, please let me know at any time. I wish you all the best and a happy life!"

Wei Zhe'an turned around and looked at him inquiringly, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Who is here?"

At this moment, Li Jinhe pursed his lips tightly, his face looked extremely cold and a little nervous.

Wei Zhe'an was keenly aware of the strong sense of anxiety spreading around him.

This kind of expression was very rare for Li Jinhe, and Wei Zhe'an couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart.

He cautiously whispered, "Could it be... that annoying old man came to visit in person?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jinhe nodded slightly, indicating his agreement. Not far ahead was the bend leading to the underground parking lot of the apartment.

After the vehicle slowly stopped, the two men were not in a hurry to get out.

The car was completely silent, as if time had stood still. Li Jinhe stared silently at the darkness outside the car window, thinking to himself.
