In a luxurious private room.
Ye Xiaoyue sat opposite Bai Hongyi. The table between them was filled with countless delicacies, ranging from those running on the ground to those flying in the sky.
The two of them ate the food on the table casually and chatted freely, enjoying themselves.
"Haha, Xiao Yue, we haven't seen each other for three months. I remember the last time we met was at your home." Bai Hongyi said with a smile, "How are you doing, Uncle Ye recently?"
"My father is very good. Thank you for your concern, brother. I'll toast you." Ye Xiaoyue picked up the red wine on the table and toasted Bai Hongyi.
"By the way, what's going on with your friend named Mo Lin?" Bai Hongyi suddenly asked: "He doesn't seem to be from our circle."
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just a friend I met by chance who helped our family a lot." Ye Xiaoyue explained.
Bai Hongyi nodded lightly and continued to chat with Ye Xiaoyue on other topics. He didn't ask more about Mo Lin. After all, Mo Lin had nothing to do with their circle.
In the evening, Mo Lin slowly walked down the mountain, with a little tiredness on his face. Ye Xiaoyue was waiting for him at the entrance of the resort. When he saw Mo Lin's figure, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Brother Lin, where have you been? Why are you here now?" Ye Xiaoyue complained a little. He had been waiting here for almost an hour, and he couldn't get through when he called him during this period.
Mo Lin smiled bitterly and responded: "I went for a walk in the mountains. The scenery of the mountains nearby is quite good."
Hearing what Mo Lin said, Ye Xiaoyue didn't think much and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to the hotel in the town. It's not safe to walk on the mountain road so late."
Later, Mo Lin took Ye Xiaoyue's car and walked about a kilometer to a five-star hotel. Ye Xiaoyue originally wanted to open a five-star suite for Mo Lin to live in, but Mo Lin refused, saying Just stay in an ordinary standard room.
It's not that Mo Lin doesn't know how to enjoy it, but that he has a layer of worry in his heart, which is the five disadvantages and three shortcomings that Li Ao mentioned to him!
Now Mo Lin only knows that one of his five disadvantages is that he is a widower. He is doomed to have no woman like him in his life, and even if she does, she will be killed by his fate.
I don’t know which one of the three shortcomings is guilty, but looking through the Taoist records, most people are guilty of money and power, so Mo Lin cannot amass money or squander it, otherwise he will be punished by heaven.
Mo Lin received her room card, went to her room, opened the door, put her things away, and went to the restaurant downstairs to order some food and a bowl of rice.
While Mo Lin was eating, Ye Xiaoyue hurried into the restaurant and saw Mo Lin eating leisurely. Mo Lin happened to see Ye Xiaoyue who was in a hurry. Just when he was about to ask him what was wrong, Ye Xiaoyue couldn't stop talking. He didn't even give him a chance, so he hurriedly walked over and pulled him out.
"Hey, where are you taking me?"
"Something happened. Several construction workers died just now. They died in strange ways. Go and have a look." Ye Xiaoyue said anxiously after walking out of the hotel.
When Mo Lin heard about the death, his face darkened. He really didn't expect that the Bai family's karma would come so quickly, and it didn't even last a day.
The two of them hurriedly got into Ye Xiaoyue's Land Rover and ran a kilometer to the construction workers' dormitory.
At this time, the place was already brightly lit. From a distance in the car, Mo Lin saw a group of people gathered in front of him. He and Ye Xiaoyue hurriedly got out of the car and rushed over.
Pushing aside the crowd, Mo Lin clearly saw several construction workers lying on the ground. They were the same ones who killed snakes at the construction site during the day, and all of them died suddenly.
Their faces were purple and blue, and there were several tiny teeth marks on their necks, arms, and legs.
After careful inspection, it is not difficult to find that these wounds were all caused by snake bites. Not only that, but later forensic identification showed that there were dozens of venomous snake venoms in the bodies of these dead workers, including some unknown snake venom. It destroys the human nervous system extremely quickly.
When Mo Lin saw the tragic death of these people, he thought of the piece of snake skin he picked up on the mountain during the day, and the uneasiness in his heart once again enveloped his heart.
"Everyone, make a move, the police are here."
At this time, Bai Hongyi's voice sounded from behind. Everyone looked back and saw Bai Hongyi and several policemen walking over. The police quickly sealed off the scene and then dispersed the onlookers.
Maureen
Taking the opportunity, he pulled Ye Xiaoyue aside, with a stern look on his face, and whispered: "Xiaoyue, please stop interfering in things here. Terminate the contract with the Bai family immediately. No matter what the price, your family can no longer interfere. "
Ye Xiaoyue was confused and looked at Mo Lin in confusion. Mo Lin said: "The Bai family may be in trouble, and the trouble will not be small. I'm afraid it will affect you!"
"Xiao Yue, what are you talking about?"
Just when Mo Lin was about to continue speaking, Bai Hongyi's voice sounded from behind them.
Hearing Bai Hongyi's voice, Mo Lin immediately closed his mouth.
Bai Hongyi walked up to them and saw that both of them looked very bad. One was worried, and the other had a little fear and worry on his face.
"Mr. Bai, what's the matter with you?" Mo Lin pretended to be calm and said calmly.
"It's nothing, I'm just curious about what you are talking about, so I came here to ask." Bai Hongyi said.
"We didn't say anything, just some personal matters." Maureen replied.
Judging from the faces of the two of them, Bai Hongyi naturally didn't believe what Mo Lin said, but they didn't say it outright, so they obviously didn't want him to know and couldn't ask more questions.
After the police carried away the bodies, Bai Hongyi said a few more words and left with Ye Xiaoyue and Mo Lin.
Back at the hotel, Ye Xiaoyue took Mo Lin to his five-star suite. The two sat on the sofa and continued the conversation they had just interrupted.
"Brother Lin, tell me the truth, what happened to Bai Hongyi?" Ye Xiaoyue frowned and looked at Mo Lin and said, "Even if we want to terminate the cooperation, I have to get my dad's consent. Someone has to convince my dad. Reason!"
"Don't worry, I will take care of my uncle's side. In short, you must not interfere with this matter anymore."
"But...but why? What happened to the Bai family? Can't even you save them?"
Mo Lin didn't speak. In fact, he couldn't really explain what happened to the Bai family. He just experienced so many bizarre supernatural events. He had an indescribable intuition about supernatural events. This intuition started from the morning when Bai Hongyi started killing people. I felt it vaguely when I saw a snake.
He believed in the accuracy of his intuition, and he could also conclude that the Bai family's trouble this time was not simple.
"Tell me something, what's going on?" Ye Xiaoyue urged anxiously when he saw that Mo Lin didn't speak for a long time.
Mo Lin sighed. He didn't want to lie to Ye Xiaoyue, so he told Ye Xiaoyue his intuition.
If someone else said this, Ye Xiaoyue would definitely not believe it, but since Mo Lin had helped the Ye family and saved his sister Ye Shuang, Ye Xiaoyue was still inclined to believe his guess.
"Brother Lin, I believe what you say, but I have to tell you the truth." Ye Xiaoyue frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "If it's just for this reason, my dad will never listen to you, don't you Understand that businessmen like us are the masters of falsehoods and lies."
"Besides, putting everything aside, the Bai family is really good to our Ye family. Bai Hongyi and I have been playing together since we were little. I really can't bear to ignore them when they are in trouble."
Ye Xiaoyue looked at Mo Lin with pleading eyes. After saying what he wanted to say, he still hoped that Mo Lin could help Bai Hongyi no matter what, but he also understood that this was unrealistic. No one would do anything to be different from him. The people involved take any risks.
Mo Lin nodded slightly. He naturally understood Ye Xiaoyue's thoughts and said, "Indeed, one cannot be ungrateful, not to mention that I have played with you since childhood. I understand you."
"However, you have to think clearly. If you take a step back, the sky will be vast. If you take a step back, you may be in an abyss. By then, you will have no choice."
"Of course, am I the kind of person who will regret it..." After saying this, Ye Xiaoyue suddenly raised his head and looked at Mo Lin, and asked in disbelief: "You...you mean you don't Will you ignore this matter?"
"When did I say I don't care?" Mo Lin scratched his head and said calmly: "I was afraid of injuring you, so I asked you not to get involved, and I didn't say I didn't care about the lives of everyone in the Bai family."
"Really! I knew Brother Lin that you wouldn't do anything to save him." Ye Xiaoyue took a deep breath and said with a smile.
"But don't be too happy too early. Even if I am willing to help Bai Hongyi, I won't be able to help Bai Hongyi."
I am absolutely certain, and it also depends on whether the Bai family and I have such a fate. "Morin said.
After saying what needed to be said, the two chatted about the background of the Bai family. Ye Xiaoyue also knew everything about it and told Mo Lin all about it.
After finishing speaking, it was already late at night. Molin returned to his room and lay on the bed unable to fall asleep for a long time. The scene of hundreds of venomous snakes entrenched at the construction site in the morning was still lingering in Molin's mind.
Although it was wrong for Bai Hongyi to order the killing of snakes, snakes are not social animals. How could they gather in such groups at the construction site?
Four hours ago, those workers died tragically. Was this a warning? Also, what Ye Xiaoyue said before was that dozens of children's skeletons were dug up under the construction site. It seemed that it was not as simple as a mass grave.
Mo Lin closed her eyes, thinking about this series of things, and fell asleep unconsciously.
The next day, Mo Lin got up early. He washed briefly and walked to the door of the hotel.
Today, Bai Hongyi asked Ye Xiaoyue to see some of his businesses, and Mo Lin also went with them.
As soon as I walked to the door of the hotel, I saw Ye Xiaoyue already sitting on the steps waiting.
Mo Lin walked up and said with a smile: "Xiao Yue, why do you get up so early?"
Ye Xiaoyue looked back at Mo Lin, and said with a wry smile: "I couldn't sleep all night last night, and I barely slept at all. Who can be as light-hearted as you?"
