All Chapters of Mysterious Girl meets Loverboy Book 1 (English Version): Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

The next day, Lixue took a day off from work. She wanted to relax for a while and think about what was happening in the world. She was with Shuji, and they were on a mountain along with other residents who lived there. “What are you thinking about?” Shuji asked beside her, holding a tumbler filled with water. Lixue sat on a large rock, gazing at the mountain view. With them were tourist guides and local residents. Their trip wasn’t planned. Shuji and Lixue just wanted to go somewhere they hadn’t been to as a couple. “I hope the Father doesn’t send down the rain yet. The workers are still fixing the road, but I can’t blame Him if He decides to pour it now. There are days when He really lets the rain fall,” Lixue said. The sky was overcast, and from where they sat, they could see workers repairing the damaged road below. “A landslide might happen down there. The soil looks soft,” Shuji said, pointing at a mountain he wasn’t sure about. Lixue looked at what Shuji was pointin

Lixue stayed for a while on their island, where her father and Uncle Lei had brought her after fetching her from the mansion. “You and Shuji need to make something happen next week,” Jiang told his daughter. They were all having breakfast together at the long table; the whole family and Jiang’s new family were present. Lixue was no longer surprised to see her father’s new family. The only difference was that they had no idea about the true nature of their lineage. The children of her stepmother weren’t her real siblings; her father had merely adopted them. They carried the Chen family name, which they didn’t deserve, since they shared no Chen blood. The adopted children kept glancing back and forth at Lixue and her father, clueless. The only one who truly knew their family’s secrets was Lixue’s stepmother. That was why she couldn’t fully claim her husband; she’d end up clashing with Lixue. Her stepmother and Lixue’s late mother had once been close friends in their youth, which

Shuji, Lixue, and Drick finally understood what Shakira was telling them. “You met him, Lixue. He’s a really big name. I met him back when I was hiding from my enemies in Japan. I ended up here. I once owed a huge debt to a Yakuza leader. The money I used to build my three businesses came from the Yakuza because they didn’t grow quickly. I struggled to pay him back. Do you remember when you asked me for a favor? I told you to go back to your island first. Even if it was painful for you to return there, I didn’t want you or my children to get caught up in my mess,” Raiden explained to his companions inside the penthouse. “You didn’t ask for help from Dad, from Ninong, at that time,” Lixue replied to her godfather. Bernard had already left. “Your father was grieving back then. It was the height of your family’s tragedy. Even though he was strong when facing problems, I knew him well. He couldn’t help but be weakened by what happened. He lost two of his loved ones, aside from you

Shakira and Drick first went to their destination, where they would look for evidence before installing the mini CCTV in the place where the grand party would be held. Raiden, on the other hand, went with Bernard to discuss reinvesting money and their partnership in a new business venture. Meanwhile, Shuji and Lixue went to a clothing boutique to buy what they would wear. Drick and Shakira were to follow them later, while Raiden's outfit would come from Bernard's luxury clothing brand. Bernard offered to include them in his brand's line, but they refused. "We can't find anything we like, hon," Shuji said as they browsed through the racks, accompanied by Bernard's three bodyguards. "We don't have any choice; we'll just have our clothes custom-made," Lixue replied. They had already visited several well-known boutiques, but nothing appealed to them. Shuji called his father to tell him what happened, so they needed to go back to the hotel, where he was already trying on clothes.

Bernard Arnault was gravely ill, and before his passing, he wanted to make sure there would be no misunderstandings within his family. He also revealed that he would not be giving his entire fortune to his family, but instead to a private charity he deeply trusted, the same one he credited for saving his life. “That’s why I organized this gathering,” Bernard said to everyone. “I don’t want to die without telling you about my illness.” His wife and children were by his side. “Dad, don’t say that. You’re not going to die; we brought you to the hospital so you can get better,” his eldest child said emotionally. Bernard, however, had already accepted that his time with his family was limited. “I’m just preparing myself, son. I’m entrusting my family to the people who once saved my life during that ambush,” Bernard said in front of everyone. Lixue knew that Mr. Arnault was referring to her godfather, Raiden. Shuji, on the other hand, suspected that Bernard was talking about
