Lawrence Manor in Jingfu Port.
In the owner's exclusive study, Governor Nanke was discussing the next course of action with Bai Zhe.
The more he chatted with Bai Zhe, the more Nan Ke admired him. Bai Zhe's unique vision and advanced understanding made Governor Nan Ke feel incredible. Such young people are really rare! We must find a way to tie it to the Lawrence family.
Governor Nanke had accidentally heard some news from Youla before. Bai Zhe's private life seemed to be quite chaotic, and he was a guy who preferred beauty.
Could it be that this guy helped the Lawrence family because of Yura? If they can get married, this will undoubtedly be a great thing for the Lawrence family.
Youla had explained Bai Zhe's identity to him before and mentioned that Bai Zhe was the leader of the World Snake Organization. Moreover, this mysterious World Snake organization has only become active in Mondstadt recently. Although it has only been here for a very short time, their power has spread all over Mondstadt, and even Bai Zhe can influence the Knights of the West Wind to a certain extent if he wants. Domestic policy decisions. ..
Boom, boom, boom.
There was a sudden knock on the heavy red wooden door, and a voice from outside reminded Bai Zhe and Governor Nanke inside.
"To inform the Governor, the head of the Yura family has returned to the manor. However, my subordinates judge that the head of the family's situation does not look good..."
After hearing the news, Bai Zhe slowly stood up and walked to the window. He stretched out his hand to open the curtains and looked through the glass into the front yard of the manor. He saw Yula, bathed in blood, returning with the cavalry. When Bai Zhe noticed the gloomy expression on Youla's face, it was not difficult to see that something was obviously wrong with Youla at this moment.
Bai Zhe looked at Youla's thoughtful look, then tugged on his collar, turned around and walked towards the door, leaving a message to Governor Nanke beside him.
"I'm going to check the information."
Governor Nanke pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose expressionlessly, but he didn't know that a strange shrewd look flashed through his cloudy eyes hidden under the reflection of the glasses.
…
Yora pursed her lips, her face looked a little solemn, and she looked obviously worried. She looked at the manor and saw that all traces of looting had been wiped away. It seemed that the restoration work of the manor had been completely completed.
Bai Zhe was seen walking straight towards Youla, and the knight squire on the side left first with a very understanding look in Bai Zhe's eyes.
Yora looked at Bai Zhe who was getting closer and had no reaction. She turned around and found that the girl Mebius who was always next to him seemed not to be there. This made her feel a little surprised. She was sent out by Bai Zhe to do something. Yet?
Bai Zhe folded his hands on his chest and looked at Youra with a calm look and asked slowly: "Is it not going well? Or did something happen?"
Youla, with dark eyes, shook her head. A sense of powerlessness emanated from her body. Bai Zhe seemed to see something when he looked at Youla. His eyes moved to her hands that were stained black and red with blood, and stretched out his hands. He moved his hands to lift his hair, which was also stained black with blood, and put his palm on Youla's cheek and said softly: "Go take a bath first to soothe your mood. I know you are enduring a lot now, but don't worry, I am here. "
After hearing Bai Zhe's words, Youla looked obviously moved. Her lips trembled slightly, and she nodded after being silent for a while.
Then Youra walked towards the manor. Bai Zhe turned around and looked at the back of the man who was walking faster and faster, with a meaningful smile on his face. Bai Zhe, who has countless wives, knows very well what the current status of women means. This is the best opportunity for him to take advantage of the situation. Perhaps if he captures her in one fell swoop, he can use her hand to control the Lawrence family behind the scenes.
I'm such a bad man, Bai Zhe sighed to himself. After all, he always does things from the perspective of profit first, Rosevia and Barbara. Bai Zhe had an attitude of using these two people at the beginning. Of course, he was not the kind of person who would throw them away after using them. He would still keep them by his side. After all, they both relied on and trusted him.
Bai Zhe came to the kitchen slowly as if taking a walk. He saw the busy kitchen and found the chef who was preparing a dinner for the returning Youla and others.
"Chef, I'll be late
The host of the banquet will not be present because he is feeling unwell, and the dinner will be hosted by Governor Nanke. After I finish my share with the owner of the house, send it directly to the owner's room. By the way, help me chill a few bottles of wine and send it there too. "
The chef didn't speak but nodded to show that he knew and was still busy with the work at hand.
When Bai Zhe walked out of the kitchen, he saw Mebius, who was still waiting. Mebius stared at Bai Zhe with his gray-green eyes and said, "What you asked me to do has been completed. I really look forward to what will happen." What will it become?”
After hearing what Mebius said, Bai Zhe was in a good mood at the moment, and now everything was going according to his plan. He saw the Honkai Energy Star Stone condensed between his fingers out of thin air, and then placed in Mebius's hand.
Mebius blinked his eyes and was obviously stunned. How could this guy suddenly give him a star stone? Normally, no matter how hard he tried to trick him, he would not give him one more. Today, he just did it for him. It's just a small thing...
Bai Zhe touched Mebius's head and explained: "Oh, by the way, you can go to the dinner by yourself. There is something I need to do tonight."
Looking at the star stone lying in his hand, Mebius couldn't think of eating dinner at this moment. He couldn't wait to return to his room, ready to absorb all the Honkai energy in the star stone.
And this is what Bai Zhe wanted to see. Bai Zhe looked at Mebius's leaving back with his hands on his hips. No one could tell what he was thinking in his indifferent expression.
…
After bathing, Youla calmed down a little. She held a towel with both hands and wiped her wet hair. She casually pushed open the wooden door of her room. In the next second, there was some faint movement from her room.
Looking around, I saw Bai Zhe sitting at the table holding a goblet with only one hand. He shook the wine glass seemingly casually to let the wine inside sway and release the fragrance. Then he leaned over and took a sniff with his nose and sighed: "Okay Wine, this wine is not much worse than the fine wine from Chenxi Winery."
Bai Zhe naturally also noticed the returning Youla, as if he was the master, he stretched out his other hand and pointed at the food on the table and said: "I know you are not in the mood to attend the dinner now, but now you are the head of the family after all. You should still notify us in advance.”
After reacting, Yura apologized and said, "I'm sorry..."
Bai Zhe took a sip of the purple wine with his lips on the edge of the wine glass and said slowly, "I have informed Governor Nanke to give you a speech and reward the knights who acted today, but today's raid is also a thank you for your hard work."
