Chereads / The Return of the Rich Family's Daughter / Chapter 225 - Chapter 225: Brother's Crush

Chapter 225 - Chapter 225: Brother's Crush

At the entrance of Bianhu Lake Villa, Qing Yan had just gotten out of the car when his phone suddenly rang.

"Boss, we've got some leads on the old fire case. We caught two suspects, but they're not talking. I'm afraid if we keep pressing them, they might not make it. How about you come over?"

"Alright." After hanging up the phone, Qing Yan saw that the taxi driver was still there and got back into the car. "Could you please take me to Nanshan Lin Villa?"

The driver was surprised and asked, "You mean the mansion on the mountaintop in the suburbs?"

It was said to be a wealthy person's private residence, and ordinary people couldn't enter! Some even said that the wealthy person had a bad temper. Once your car entered the boundaries of the mountain, pillars would rise from the road to stop you from proceeding...

If someone in the car was curious and got out to explore, a large group of bodyguards would appear menacingly.

In short, nobody dared to go to that place!

The driver glanced at the rearview mirror, wondering if the young girl knew someone inside Lin Villa?

Both Bianhu Lake Villa and Nanshan Lin Villa – this girl's identity seemed not simple.

However, if she was so extraordinary, why didn't she have her own driver and car and had to take a taxi instead??

The driver couldn't figure it out.

"You don't need to go to the mountaintop, just drop me off at the foot of the mountain."

"Okay, please fasten your seatbelt." The driver stepped on the gas pedal and quickly left.

Not far away, Li Canxi in a luxurious business car watched everything, his eyes twinkling with a hint of interest...

What a beautiful girl, who is she?

Why does she look so charming?

He had never seen such a good-looking girl before – her delicate face, flowing long hair, and a chilly aura all over her.

Her appearance and temperament perfectly matched his aesthetics!

"She must have just left your house and took a taxi back home? It seems she's a thrifty and frugal girl." The agent, Old K, noticed his thoughts and didn't hesitate to praise her. "Could she be a blind date arranged by your mother? She's quite exceptional!"

Such a beautiful blind date... When did his mother have such discerning eyes?

"Knowing that you're going home to accompany your sister, I'll give you a couple of days off."

"Thanks." Li Canxi patted Old K's shoulder and didn't forget to take the gift he had prepared for his sister. "I'm leaving."

In the living room, Song Qiaoying was sitting on the sofa, sipping her flower tea. When she saw Li Canxi coming in, she couldn't help but put down her teacup and gave him a beating.

"You brat, you finally decided to come back? Your sister has been back for a few days already! Always busy, busy, busy..."

Li Canxi grinned, "Mom, why does your beating feel heavier? Have you been eating too much lately?"

"You brat, are you saying I've gained weight?" Song Qiaoying playfully hit him a couple of times before someone brought a weighing scale. "I really gained one pound! Oh my, quickly tell the kitchen not to prepare my portion for tonight's supper!"

"What about my sister?" Li Canxi smiled, looking around but couldn't find her anywhere. He scratched his head, wondering if she had fallen asleep.

"Now you care about your sister? It's too late!" Song Qiaoying snorted, turning her face away. Li Canxi was a bit confused. What does she mean by "too late"?

"Is she gone??" "You, brat! Can't you speak properly?" Song Qiaoying couldn't help but hit him again. "Your sister is doing just fine. She went out and won't be back so soon."

"Oh... Then I'll go upstairs to take a shower first."

"Wait, I haven't finished speaking yet..."

As Li Canxi's long legs took him up the stairs in just a few steps, Song Qiaoying became a little angry. This brat surely knows what she was going to say and deliberately avoided her!

After forty minutes, Li Canxi came downstairs again, found a spot to sit, and picked up some fruits from the table to eat.

"Still no sign of my sister?"

Song Qiaoying caught him and immediately said, "You're always busy with something every day! You're already an adult, why don't you consider settling down?!"

Suddenly, she thought of something and couldn't help asking, "I heard your social circle is quite chaotic... Do men prefer other men? You're not one of them, are you?"

"Pfft..." Li Canxi almost choked on a grape, "Mom, why are you saying such nonsense!"

Seeing his exaggerated reaction, Song Qiaoying felt a little suspicious, "Lao Wu, tell your mother the truth, do you have a boyfriend? Is that why you don't want to come home for blind dates? If you do, it's okay, your mother is not conservative..."

"Mom, you're talking nonsense!"

"Even if you like the same gender, I can accept it. At least it's better than being single!"

"..." Li Canxi was truly exasperated, "Mom, I'm not some unsellable goods at a clearance sale! Your son is in his prime, full of energy and strength!"

"Then why don't you have a girlfriend? Even though you're not handsome, not tall, and getting a bit older..."

"Mom, I'm only 22! How can I be old?" Li Canxi couldn't help but retort.

"Your former classmate, that Lin Jun guy, who's the same age as you, got engaged recently. Your mother even attended their wedding!" Song Qiaoying sighed with a bit of worry. "When will it be your turn?"

Li Canxi popped a couple of grapes into his mouth and casually replied, "Soon, soon."

"Really? When?" Song Qiaoying exclaimed with delight, "So, you've taken a liking to someone? Who is she? Does Mom know her?"

"I did find a girl quite special..." replied Li Canxi.

"Really? The daughter of which family?" Song Qiaoying hurriedly asked, "What's her name? How old is she? Where is she from?"

To hear such words from the mouth of her unruly son, she felt like thanking her ancestors!

"It was tonight, the girl who was at our doorstep... she seemed quite special."

"At our doorstep? Are you talking about the Sang family's daughter?"

"Is she Sang Qi?" Now it was Li Canxi's turn to be surprised. Although they used to play together as children, Sang Qi went abroad with her parents as she grew up and only returned in the last couple of years. But has she really transformed that drastically? He could hardly recognize her.

"Yes, she came tonight with gifts to visit us. Look how well-behaved other people's children are compared to you!" Song Qiaoying couldn't help but scold him, "You came all the way back, and you didn't even show any filial respect to your parents!"

"Didn't you say we don't need to bring anything, just coming back would be enough?"

"I also asked you to get married this year, did you hear me?" Song Qiaoying nagged a bit more before asking, "How many days off do you have? Sang Qi will come tomorrow, and I'll arrange for you two to meet. I must say, I quite like this girl with short hair and big eyes..."

"Short hair??" Now it was Li Canxi's turn to be surprised, "The girl I was talking about had long hair!"

"Long hair???" Song Qiaoying recalled, "Tonight, Mrs. Li came over with her daughter, and she has long hair. Let me check if it's her."

She took out her phone and showed Li Canxi some pictures.
