With the lightness skills of Li Fenglan and those dead men of the Bai family, Lian Rong was naturally unable to detect it, but it was different with Bai Shuyu. The chase was very nervous all the way, for fear that Bai Shuyu would lose his chain.
Lian Rong thought that her disguise was very clever. She walked through the streets and alleys of Luoyang at night, and took a long circuit before arriving at the small house.
She stood at the door of the house and knocked lightly, but no one answered. I knocked several more times, but still no one answered. Lianrong couldn't help but become nervous. She pushed hard and the door was unlocked.
She walked into the courtyard. It was dark, without lights, and without any smell of strangers.
"Mr. Chen." She called out, and was met with dead silence.
"Stop shouting, he has already run away." A familiar female voice came from behind. Lianrong turned around suddenly and saw Li Fenglan and Bai Shuyu standing at the door with a few dead soldiers.
No, I just clearly killed her!
Li Fenglan stepped into the threshold with her hands behind her back and said with a smile: "You are hiding well. The Bai family has not discovered you for so many years."
Lian Rong understood that she had been exposed a long time ago. What Bai Shuyu said to her in the afternoon was just acting on her, just to see who she was.
Bai Shuyu also walked in: "I'm curious, how did you deceive Mr. Qin and me? I personally selected you. I didn't expect that we were both deceived at the same time."
At this point, there is no point in pretending.
Lianrong smiled coldly: "Bai Shuyu, you are not unjust. At that time, Xiaozhu didn't believe that your Bai family would be content with the status quo. Ever since you entered Baihualou, the eldest son has been eyeing you and specially arranged for us homeless people to The returning orphan approaches Baihua Tower."
"These?" Bai Shuyu frowned, "Are there many?"
"There are many...but you only picked two."
Bai Shuyu nodded: "The other one was killed by my elder brother."
Li Fenglan asked: "Is this young master you are talking about Chi Junyan?"
"That's right."
Li Fenglan was a little confused: "Have you seen the women I had people bring back in front of Tongguan last year?"
Lian Rong nodded: "I have seen it."
"Those women have become like that, but it is all the work of your eldest son. You are still willing to do things for such an inhumane thing? After the destruction of Xiaozhu, no one will know that you are a craftsman. As long as you stay in Baidu If you don't act like a monster, no one will notice your identity. Why do you do this?"
Lian Rong smiled sadly: "The eldest son gave me a life, and I have to repay him. As for what he did to those women, it has nothing to do with me."
Bai Shuyu sighed, turned to look at Li Fenglan, and asked, "Can you..."
Before he finished asking, Li Fenglan said: "Don't ask me, you can handle your family matters yourself."
After saying that, Li Fenglan turned around and left the yard.
She really hated Lian Rong to the very root of her teeth, and she was not a person who could rub sand out of her eyes. But after experiencing so many things, she felt a little exhausted. The Bai family has been organized for twenty years, and no one close to them can be trusted. She doesn't want to get involved in this matter, and lets Bai Shuyu make his own decision.
But Li Fenglan did not go back to the Bai family, but moved to a big house not far away.
The house is very grand, and it looks like it belongs to a wealthy family.
This family had just moved here not long ago, and they were very generous with their money. When they arrived in Luoyang, they hired a whole yard of servants. I heard that the owners of the house are a mother and a son, and they are very kind people.
Li Fenglan didn't call the door and walked directly over the wall.
In the yard, a young man was watering the flowers. He heard the sound of clothes flying and looked over.
When he saw the face of the visitor clearly, he let out a strange scream, dropped the kettle and ran behind the pillar of the bedroom next to him.
Li Fenglan was startled by his strange cry, frowned and asked, "What are you shouting?"
Ye Jing lay down behind the pillar, stuck his head out, and said tremblingly: "I've met Miss Li...Long time no see, haha, long time no see."
Li Fenglan crossed her arms and said, "Do you have something to say?"
Ye Jing swallowed: "Yes... what, it was Mr. Chen's wish to come to Luoyang. He said that my mother and I would only be safe if we hid here."
Li Fenglan shook her head: "That's not it."
Ye Jing was helpless, stamped his feet, and almost cried: "You really can't blame me! I can't think of anything else! That's the most reasonable part. If you didn't mention it at the beginning, I wouldn't have thought about it, right?" And everyone likes this part very much.”
Li Fenglan was confused and asked: "What are you talking about? What do you mean? Why can't I understand?"
Ye Jing was stunned: "You... haven't read the next volume yet?"
Li Fenglan suddenly realized: "Oh, you are talking about the second volume of "The Legend of Breaking Demons"... No, wait a minute, what do you mean? Are you really getting me involved with whose son?!"
"Yes... but everyone likes it very much! They all say that the design of this part is amazing! I really recommend you to read it! Everyone who has read it said it is good!"
Li Fenglan rolled up her arms and sleeves: "I...I won't kill you!"
"A gentleman talks with his words but never with his hands!" Ye Jing begged for mercy.
Li Fenglan took a deep breath, waved her hands and said, "Forget it, I'm not looking for you for this. We'll settle the score later. Are you really not aware or are you pretending not to know?"
"You're not here for this?" Ye Jing was also puzzled, "Then I really don't know what you mean by coming here."
Li Fenglan thought for a while: "It seems that you really don't know. Chen Zi is absolutely fine with you mother and son... Mr. Zhao..."
"What, my surname is Ye, my name is Ye Jing. My brother's name is Ye Si..."
Ye Si, Si Ye, oh, that’s what it meant.
Li Fenglan said: "You can call me whatever you want. Luoyang is safe for you. No one will come to you in the future. As for Chen Zijue, he probably won't come to you in the future. The deal between me and your father is It’s done…just write your book…remember! Don’t run away before you finish writing!”
Ye Jing hurriedly nodded and bowed: "I will follow the teachings of Miss!"
…
When Li Fenglan came out of Ye's house, she happened to meet Bai Shuyu walking back.
Bai Shuyu was wiping the blood on his hand with a white handkerchief. Li Fenglan glanced at it but said nothing. The two of them returned to Bai's house in silence.
The night banquet was still going on, and Li Fenglan naturally joined the banquet. No one asked her what she had just done.
Bai Shuyu's mood was a little complicated. Looking at the noisy crowd, he felt his head was a little swollen.
Chen Ling'er walked over and whispered: "Third Young Master, Mr. Qin invites you to come."
Bai Shuyu nodded and walked towards the backyard.
The Bai family siblings did not know Mr. Qin's real name. He was an old man of the Bai family and managed the intelligence network for three generations of the Bai family. He was very reliable.
Ever since something happened to the Bai family after the New Year, Mr. Qin has been ill and bedridden. Bai Shuyu searched all the good doctors in Luoyang but could not cure Mr. Qin. It happened that the Divine Doctor Hou came a few days ago, and Bai Shuyu begged the Divine Doctor Hou to help Mr. Qin see a doctor.
Doctor Hou said: Mr. Qin has worked hard all his life and has too many stubborn diseases. He will definitely not be able to cure them. We can only keep it, and if we are lucky, we can live for another two or three years.
After Bai Ruoyun's death, the Bai family siblings no longer had a reliable adult. Mr. Qin has always treated them as his own children, and is especially concerned about Bai Shuyu's education. To the Bai family siblings, Mr. Qin is like their father, generous and selfless.
At Mr. Qin's residence, Bai Boju was already in the house.
"Mr. Qin, Shu Yu is here."
The old man sat up with all his strength, and Bai Boju hurriedly stepped forward to help him.
Looking at the old man on the bed, Bai Shuyu had mixed feelings.
"Just lie down and don't get up."
Mr. Qin waved his hand: "It's okay, my bones can still last for a while, don't think I'm going to die."
Bai Shuyu smiled and said, "Don't you often say that you are immortal? How could you die so quickly?"
"Hehe," Mr. Qin couldn't help but laugh, "Xiaosan'er, among your siblings, you are the one I like the most, and you haven't embarrassed me."
Bai Shuyuyou
Some embarrassment: "Isn't it embarrassing? I can't compare to Chen Zijue or Li Fenglan."
"When you were in charge, the Bai family was already a broken ship. It's not easy to survive until now."
Bai Boju said, "Don't praise him like that. He can't help but praise him since he was a child."
"Hahaha," Mr. Qin smiled, "Your children are all good...Boju, you have been with me for a long time. It's busy outside today, so I'll go with you guys and let Xiao San'er accompany me." .”
"Okay... Shu Yu, stay with Mr. Qin well."
"Brother, I understand.".
Mr. Qin usually calls his siblings "lady" and "gongzi", but now that he doesn't have much time left, he doesn't want to talk about this rule anymore.
After Bai Boju left, Mr. Qin stretched out his hand: "Help me get out of bed."
"I said you just lie down, your arms and legs are old, don't throw them again."
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up."
In desperation, Bai Shuyu had to help him stand up. The old man walked all the way to the desk, sat down tremblingly, looked at the books on the table, and smiled happily.
"I worked for your grandfather back then, then for your father, and now I'm serving you brothers and sisters. My life has been quite fulfilling. I can only live for two years at most. While I can still speak, I'll let you know what's behind me. .”
Bai Shuyu moved a chair and sat aside: "Here you go again... Two years ago, you said there was nothing to live for, and now you say it's boring. Besides, you don't need to explain anything. Now the Bai family is easy to take care of, and there are no people left. .”
"There are still some..." Mr. Qin patted Bai Shuyu's shoulder gently, "Ling'er is not a bad girl, but it's a pity that you have fallen in love with Jade. Since you don't want her, give her a good home."
"I know, I have already arranged Ling'er's matter."
"Lian Rong is a pretty good girl. Your second brother is away, so she is quite suitable to be a housekeeper." Bai Shuyu and Chen Ling'er didn't tell him about Lian Rong, not wanting the old man to worry too much.
Bai Shuyu nodded and said vaguely: "It's up to you."
"As for Changfeng Tower, to be honest, the little girl from the Li family is very mean-spirited, but she is not evil-minded, so she can be dealt with."
"With Jade's relationship, it's no different."
"Come on..." The old man leaned back in his chair, "There's nothing more to say. After thinking about it, it's better to trust you, kid... Kid, can I ask you something?"
"Just tell me if you have anything to ask for."
"Get me a bottle of wine."
Bai Shuyu frowned: "Old man, you're a bit over the top. Can you still drink in this state?"
"I'll just take a few sips."
"Stop making trouble, my elder brother won't beat me to death if something happens to you."
"Just two words, I have never asked you for anything in my life."
"Don't say it so pitifully. Do I have to give you a whole roasted chicken?"
"That's best."
"Hey..." Bai Shuyu sighed, "Let's talk about that first. If something happens to you while drinking, you can't accuse me."
Mr. Qin smiled happily: "Don't worry, when did I betray you?"
"Hmph... The organ girl from Baihualou just said a few words to me. I don't know who tipped my sister off."
"You kid, just have fun. I'm sorry if I didn't tell Jade. Go get the wine."
