589 Reclusive Family

Xia Ling looked at Li Lei eagerly.

She really hoped that Li Lei was able to guess the truth. In the case, he would not need to help her get the 30 billion back.

Sure enough, Li Lei lived up to her expectations. After pondering for a moment, he looked up and said, "Although The Preceptor is powerful, it's rumored that he doesn't like to interfere in things. His whereabouts are fleeting, and he is also cold. Since he's willing to give you 30 billion, this proves that your business is important to him. Am I right?"

Xia Ling stared at him sparkly-eyed. "That's right. You're getting close. Continue guessing."

Li Lei chuckled. "You're special or useful to him in some way or maybe he's just willingly taking care of you. Let's talk about whether you're useful to him first. Do you have anything that can benefit him? Your singing? Your fame? I don't think that an astute man like Preceptor Xia would care about these things.

"I'm afraid that your skills won't be able to explain your special treatment.

"If he's using you, he must see something special about your life. I'm not talking about your curse of loneliness. There are too many people cursed with loneliness in this world, so why would he choose you? That's because you're special in the way you reincarnated and this is your second life. Although I don't understand metaphysics, Preceptor Xia probably already realized that you lived in two lifetimes. Xiao Ling, is this true?"

He was really smart.

Xia Ling continued being starry-eyed. "That's true. The Preceptor knew that I lived two lives a long time ago. He found out my identity the first time I met him." Besides, her brother only warned her not to tell Li Lei that they were siblings, so telling him about her reincarnation was not a big deal.

If The Preceptor knew that his sister sold him out completely, he might really strangle her.

At this time, Xia Ling happily awaited for her sweetheart to continue his reasoning. "Quickly think about it."

Li Lei indulgently scratched his head. "So he treats you special because you lived two lives. In that case, how can he use your fate of two lifetimes? If he's trying to do something with your birth chart… That can't be because he already knew about your birth chart a long time ago. In fact, the last time when he engraved the amulet, you said that your birth chart is not Ye Xingling's. Later, I did an investigation and realized that it's also not Xia Ling's birth chart which was publicly announced. You said that it was your real birth chart.

"Did The Preceptor give you that birth chart?

"If you knew your birth chart in your past life, given your IQ…"

Xia Ling glared at him, causing Li Lei to choke on his words. He softly said, "Anyway, if you already knew your true birth chart, you would've made it public a long time ago. An artiste's information would not have a fake birth chart. The only possibility would be that when The Preceptor looked for you, he gave you your true birth chart."

"Well, yes." Xia Ling thought about whether she should teach him a lesson after he dared to look down on her IQ and carelessly acknowledged him.

Li Lei said, "Since he knows your birth chart, he didn't give you 30 billion because he wanted to know your birth chart. It could be that he's planning on using you for something, but this possibility is not very great because, from the surveillance camera footage, you two looked really close. He also looked indulgent and caring, so I don't think that you two have a transactional relationship."

Xia Ling continued to nod readily.

Li Lei said, "So he became close to you and gave you 30 billion not because he wants to use you. I just said that there's also another possibility that he's voluntarily taking care of you.

"What sort of person would make The Preceptor willingly take care of her?

"I think that the person is either his lover, friend or… relative."

He paused for a moment and looked at Xia Ling.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Xia Ling almost stopped breathing and whispered, "What do you think is the relationship between me and The Preceptor?"

"I think…" Li Lei's expression relaxed. "In your past life, your surname was 'Xia,' and you were an orphan. Coincidentally, The Preceptor's surname is also 'Xia.'"

Xia Ling wanted to give him a standing ovation. What an impressive logical deduction!

"Quickly tell me what that relationship is. Hurry!" She looked at Li Lei excitedly. "The Preceptor did not allow me to say it, but it's fine if you guess it yourself. Quickly guess."

"Ok. He's your relative." Li Lei also smiled and was as happy as her. "Judging by his age, he can't be your father. He's probably… your older or younger brother. Looking at the way he acts around you, I think that it's more likely that he's your older brother."

"Wow, you're so amazing! I love you so much!" Xia Ling kissed his face. "Yes, you're right. I just know that you're the best!"

After being praised by his beloved girl, Li Lei's heart also fluttered. He hugged her and laughed. "Of course, don't you know who I am." After that, he paused for a moment. "Congratulations, Xiao Ling. You finally found your own family."

If he saw it with his own eyes, he wouldn't dare to believe that her identity was so shocking.

Preceptor Xia's younger sister?

Xiao Ling probably didn't know that her brother and her entire family had a heavenly status in this world. Even the rich and powerful families like the Li Family, Pei Family, and many presidents were only honorable and celebrated. The ones who truly had control over this world were not these recognized families but… the reclusive families.

The world's so-called invisible top.

There are a few giants whose tips of the iceberg were never even revealed.

For example, the Xia Family.

He would rather offend ten Pei Zihengs than offend one Preceptor Xia. In fact, Pei Ziheng would also rather offend ten Li Leis than offend one Preceptor Xia.

Some time ago, Preceptor Xia only lent some of his help and the Pei Family almost went bankrupt overnight. Such power was bone-chilling. Li Lei was very clear that if he were in Pei Ziheng's position, he had also no chance of fighting back and could only beg Preceptor Xia to stop.

Now, such a frightening man was his brother-in-law.

Li Lei's feelings were complicated.

Unknowingly, Xia Ling smiled cheerfully. "You don't have to get that 30 billion back anymore since you already know that The Preceptor is my brother. Haha."

Li Lei was very melancholic. "I still have to get the 30 billion back for you."

"Why?" Xia Ling was startled. "I don't care about the money." She already had 10 billion and Li Lei's allowance. Including her salary as a celebrity, she could sustain an extravagant lifestyle without any need for extra money.

To be honest, if there were too much money, she really didn't know what to do with it.

Li Lei patted her head. "You don't have to care about that. Just patiently wait to collect your money and also the compensation for mental trauma." His pride as a man did not allow him to not demand the payment of 30 billion. How could he let his woman always rely on her family? Besides, his future brother-in-law also gave him this task…

His future brother-in-law was not ordinary. If he dared to disobey him, he would be anticipating his death.
