Chapter 223 Who Put Daisies on My Parents&##x27; Graves? (1)

"I ...... I just arrived this afternoon." Xiran Xiao was a little uneasy. She rarely lied and had never lied to
her friends.

"I'd like to ask you out for dinner tonight. I'm very sorry about last time, I ......" said Venus.

Xiran interrupted her, "Tonight I have a date. But this time I’ll stay longer in Sky City. I'll call you in a
couple of days."

Venus was happy. She was not as disappointed as before. "Fine, you must remember to call me."

"Sure." said Xiran. When the salesperson gave Venus a small gift box, she asked curiously. “What do
you buy?”

"Chestnut cake. How about you?"

Xiran looked at the various desserts in the glass case. They all looked delicious. She didn't know which
one to choose. "Can you give me some suggestions?"

Venus knew a thing or two about desserts. She pointed to the cake inside and said," This is a
chocolate truffle cake. It’s sweet and a little bitter. This is a cheesecake, it's very smooth. This one is a
fruit muffin. It’s layered with strawberries and mango cherries and cookies….."

Venus introduced five kinds of cakes. Xiran and even the shop owner were surprised.

"Well, which one do you want?" Venus asked.

"I want chocolate truffle cake and fruit muffins. I’ll take them away." Xiran said.

"Yes, please wait a few minutes." said the waiter.

Xiran looked at Venus, surprised. "You know so much about desserts."



"I just love desserts, so I know a little about them." Venus smiled and said.

"What have you been up to lately?" Xiran asked.

"I entered a national fashion designer's competition and then I made it to the finals. So I've been busy
thinking of design ideas lately."

"Congratulations," Xiran said sincerely.

The cake was soon ready. Xiran paid for the cake and walked out of the bakery with Venus.

"I'll leave now.”Xiran waved at her. “I'll call you later.”

Venus saw a black car parked on the side of the road and asked with a smile, "That friend of yours is
waiting for you in the car?"

Xiran nodded.

"Can I meet him? I'm dying to know what your boyfriend looks like." Venus took her arm and asked.

"I'm afraid that won't work. He doesn't like meeting strangers. He'll be angry if I let you appear in front
of him suddenly." Xiran said.

Venus looked at her in surprise, "Xiran, you will care if a man is mad at you. It's not like you."

Xiran smiled and then patted her on the shoulder, "Alright. When the time is right, you'll meet him."

Venus shrugged, "I'll wait for your call then. Bye."

Back in the car, Xiran placed two cakes in the back of the car. Tianye Mu started the car and asked her,
"Sky city is so small. I can't believe you can even meet her here."



Xiran laughed, "Yeah, I thought it was quite a coincidence. She wanted to come over and see you, but I
turned her down."

"Why did she want to see me?"

"Because you're handsome." Xiran reached up and picked at his chin, teasing, "After all, I save you
because of your good looking."

"Then I really have to thank my parents for giving me a good appearance that attracts you."

"So you need keep it well. If you are not looking good, maybe I'll find someone else." Xiran teased.

Tianye smiled faintly, "You just give up. I won't give you the chance to find someone else."

Not far away, Venus watched the car leave. She suddenly remembered the car she'd seen the day of
the heavy rain. Then she suddenly shook her head. "The streets are full of black cars like this one."
She thought.

Back at the Ye family villa, Kerry had returned from work. She had found nothing on her trip, which
Kerry had predicted. He had sent someone to look at every property in the house the night it rained.
The reason why he let her see it in person was that he didn’t want her to misunderstand him.

The strange thing for Kerry was that her expression was not as disappointed as he thought it would be.
After asking her about it, he knew that she had met Xiran.

Kerry didn't say anything.

"What is this annoying woman doing in Sky City again?" he thought.

After five months of construction, the city's largest amusement park was nearing completion. To ensure
a perfect finish, Kerry and Xuan Chu stayed at the construction site almost every day. However, Kerry's



fear happened.

A worker fell from a high shelf and died on the spot.

Kerry and Xuan was informed of this matter and then rushed to the scene. There was blood all over the
ground, which was horrible.

Kerry made a quick decision. He called the worker's construction team, and said to the leader of these
workers, "Contact the family of the worker immediately. Tell your men not to mention the matter to
anyone. If the media knew about this, we can't explain it clearly."

"Yes, Mr. Ye."

Then Kerry said to Kai Chen, the Engineering Manager, "Seal off the site and don't let anyone in. Also
notify the funeral home and take the dead worker away."

Xuan waited for him to make all the arrangements and asked, confused, "Shouldn't the police be
notified first?"

Kerry glanced at him, "The police are busy, and we’d better not give them any trouble."

"But, after all, it's a matter of human’s life."

Kerry said coldly, "Mr. Chu, you may not be familiar with the way things are done there. If we can solve
the problem privately, we'd better not inform the police. People didn't notify the police when a patient
dies in the hospital, right? The amusement park will be completed in three days, and I don't want any
bad news about it at this time."

Xusn was silent. It was true that he didn't understand these ways of dealing with problems. But he and
Kerry had the same goal of not having any negative news about the amusement park before it opened.



Kerry stood at the site for a while, and then he called his friend from the police station.

"Mr. Wei, a worker at my construction site died in an accident. If someone ever go to the police station
and ask about it, let me know it ahead of time."

"How did he die?" asked Mr. Wei.

Kerry looked at the ten-meter high shelf and said, "He fell off the high shelf and died instantly."

"Okay, I got it."

The dead worker was not a local. His family had rushed to Sky City from the rural areas after learning
the news. Kerry didn't show up, but sent Kai Chen to talk to his family. No matter what they offered,
Kerry demanded that Kai agree to all of them.

Kerry and Xuan sat at the construction site waiting for news. Three hours later, a call came from Kai.

"Mr. Ye, his family is demanding one million two hundred thousand in compensation and they're asking
for a job for his child."

Kerry frowned.

"Tell them I can compensate them for a million and a half. But I'm not responsible for his kid's job."

After a long time, Kai finally called and said the family agreed to the terms.

“Let them cremate him immediately, and then send his family back overnight. Ask them for an account,
and I'll have the money transferred to them today."

It only took ten hours from the accident to the matter being dealt with, and then the worker seemed to
have evaporated, leaving no trace of him.



Kerry thought the matter was settled like this. But the next morning, the news that a worker at the newly
built amusement park died due to a fall exploded on the internet, along with a photo

Kerry saw the news while eating breakfast, and lost his appetite because of anger.

"Henry," Kerry shouted. Henry rushed in.

"Go find out who leaked the news." Kerry yelled.

Venus didn't know much about the incident. All she knew was that there had been an accident at the
construction site and a worker died and Kerry had taken care of this matter.

“Could it be that someone deliberately hyped it up" Venus asked.
