Qian Tao didn’t even notice the time. Had it been ten minutes already?

No, should she say ten minutes were finally up?

It was torture being in the room with him alone. Luckily, Fang Hengqi arrived.

“Hey! Don’t do that, bro! I’ve heard about the incident when I was on my way here. It was all my fault!”

Immediately after Fang Hengqi’s words, in came a few people. Qian Tao could recognize the man whose face was bruised and who was staggering into the room. He was the burly man who had mistaken her for another person.

The person pushing him from the back looked like his superior.

Thud! The burly man was pushed to the ground and knelt down in front of Li Hengzhi and Qian Tao. He kept slapping himself and admitting his fault, “I’m sorry! I’m sorry, Mr. Li! I was blind and offended Mr. Li! If you wish to beat or scold, just do it!”

Fang Hengqi was not happy with the burly man and shot him a dirty look.

Li Hengzhi was like a man of noble character. He lifted the lid of his cup and blew on the hot tea, “I didn’t know that there are such people at your place now.”

What he just said was for Fang Hengqi.

“Bro, I’m innocent! Don’t you know me well? How would I allow those under me to do such mean things? I’ve beaten him up and he had obviously mistaken her for someone else.”

“Mistaken her for someone else? Do you know who she is?”

While the two men were talking, Qian Tao was sitting quietly by one side, not interrupting.

From his tone of voice, it was quite obvious that Li Hengzhi was not angry anymore but he was just faking it.

Fang Hengqi turned around, looked at Qian Tao and asked, “Who’s this pretty lady?”

Qian Tao answered with a laugh, “There’s only one identity which you are familiar with, my father is Qian Chenhai.”

Fang Hengqi was astonished. “Oh, the daughter of Sea City’s mayor!”

The man who stirred up trouble tried to widen his eyes but it was difficult as he was badly bruised. “Miss Qian! It’s my fault, Miss Qian, I was blind.”

She was neither hurt nor had she suffered loss but the burly man was badly beaten up and looked pitiful. She couldn’t bear the sight of him and so, she turned away.

Forgive him?

She couldn’t.

If Li Hengzhi had not been there just now, she couldn’t imagine where and how she would end up. Just the thought of it gave her goosebumps.

“There’s another identity.” Li Hengzhi added.

“Another identity?”

The question was thrown out by Fang Hengqi but Qian Tao was equally shocked.

Which other identity?

Li Hengzhi announced, “My wife.”

Qian Tao stared in disbelief.

Never had she expected that Li Hengzhi would so easily announce their relationship to the public.

If her identity as the mayor’s daughter did not surprise Fang Hengqi, then this would leave him stunned.

“So, this is sis-in-law!” His eyes widened. “No way, when did you get married bro? Why didn’t I receive the wedding invitation? Was it a secret marriage? Even if you were to get married secretly, you should have informed me!”

His vision shifted to Qian Tao but all she could do was to smile awkwardly.

Stop looking. She too didn’t know what Mr. Li was thinking.

After the interrogation, Fang Hengqi kicked the burly man aside and shouted, “Whoever gives him a job in Yinchuan will be my enemy!”

“Hey,” Qian Tao voiced out while looking at Li Hengzhi, “Forget about it, you don’t have to be so cruel, let’s give him a chance to learn from his mistake.”

She thought that forcing a person to a dead end might cause the person to act without a conscience. What if he were to harm other innocent people?
