Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Key Is Not Here
Hearing Chen Tian's opening, Su Ningxue, who was about to go over, was stunned for a moment, and then showed surprise.
"What did you just say?
"Uncle Li's eyes!" Chen Tian reminded again, but Su Ningxue still felt strange, but even so, she still subconsciously looked at Uncle Li.
As a result, it didn't matter if she looked at it, when she saw that there was an indescribable indifference in Uncle Li's eyes, her face changed instantly.
"This ......"
Su Ningxue was surprised by this look, especially this strange feeling, which made her feel like she wanted to dodge.
This is Uncle Li she has never seen before, so cold that it is frightening.
But even so, she still didn't believe that Uncle Li would be like this, so she planned to watch it again.
However, just as she looked at it for the second time, Uncle Li suddenly returned to normal and walked slowly towards them.
Seeing this scene, Su Ningxue wanted to be surprised, but Chen Tian instantly held her right hand.
"Don't make a sound, act like nothing happened!"
Hearing the reminder, even if Su Ningxue was unexpected, she still forcibly held back her surprise and tried her best to return to normal.
Although she didn't know why Uncle Li became like this, she thought that Chen Tiancai was someone she trusted, so she adjusted her state and greeted Uncle Li who came over.
"Uncle Li. ”
Hearing the greeting, Uncle Li didn't have too much expression on his face, just nodded, shouted hello, and turned his gaze to Chen Tian.
When Chen Tian saw it, he was not polite, and immediately shouted Uncle Li.
I thought that this Uncle Li would nod like just now, but I didn't expect the other party to look at him carefully, and it took a long time to reply.
"You're a little different from what is rumored!"
"Rumors?"
Chen Tian was surprised by this evaluation, but then when he thought of the past eight years, he laughed with relief: "I've always been like this, maybe Uncle Li hasn't seen me before, so he feels different." ”
Hearing this, Uncle Li glanced at him and nodded.
"Go inside, the tea is ready. ”
After speaking, without waiting for them to respond, Uncle Li turned around and went back.
Seeing this, Chen Tian didn't say anything, but Su Ningxue, after seeing Uncle Li leave, he immediately whispered.
"Uncle Li looked at you with surprise just now, he didn't seem to expect you to follow. ”
"No, he must have known that I would come, and he was fully prepared!" Chen Tian denied Su Ningxue's speculation, but did not explain.
Although Su Ningxue was surprised, because she couldn't talk more here, she could only remind again.
"No matter what, as long as we can find something, we will make it worthwhile, don't talk much when you go in later, I will ask Uncle Li for something." ”
Hearing this, Chen Tian immediately nodded in agreement.
Although he didn't know what the purpose of this Uncle Li staying in the old mansion was, but thinking that what he had come would be safe, he didn't hesitate anymore and immediately followed Su Ningxue into the old mansion.
The inside of the Su family's old mansion is quite different from the outside.
Although the inside maintains the style of an old house, it has been carefully renovated, so after entering, it can make people feel a lot more comfortable.
"It looks like this is a good place, no wonder your grandfather doesn't want to leave!"
Entering the old mansion, Chen Tian couldn't help but sigh.
Although Su Ningxue was surprised, she didn't say anything, but pulled Chen Tian to sit opposite Uncle Li together.
Seeing this, Uncle Li poured them two cups of tea before asking.
"I heard that you came here this time to find something. ”
"Huh?" Su Ningxue was surprised by Uncle Li's opening, but after reacting, she immediately nodded: "Yes, we are indeed here to find something, but don't worry, we can accompany Uncle Li to drink tea first, and it will not be too late to find it tomorrow." ”
Hearing this, Uncle Li looked at Su Ningxue and shook his head.
"The key you're looking for isn't here!"
Su Ningxue was surprised again, not only this answer, but also Uncle Li's initiative to deny it.
After all, before coming to the old mansion, she didn't reveal the purpose of finding the key, so when she heard this, she couldn't help but look at Uncle Li suspiciously.
"How did Uncle Li know that I was looking for the key?"
"I've heard some news from you lately. Uncle Li didn't mind Su Ningxue's eyes, but replied calmly as always: "Your grandfather has a black box, I thought you would come to find it before, but I didn't expect it to drag on until now." ”
Hearing the answer, Su Ningxue was completely stunned.
Although she was surprised that Uncle Li would inquire about Jiang Hai's news, what she didn't expect was this key, which made her immediately surprised.
"Uncle Li, how sure I'm going to come looking for it? Did my grandfather tell you in advance?"
Uncle Li nodded, but did not answer.
Su Ningxue didn't know what it meant, so she could only wait for the other party to explain.
Although Chen Tian didn't expect things to be like this, he thought that this key would definitely not be lost for no reason, so he followed up with a guess.
"Su Demu took the key, right?"
Hearing this, Su Ningxue was surprised, but Uncle Li looked at him.
"That's right!"
Uncle Li answered affirmatively, but the answer was expected by Chen Tian.
Although he didn't expect the result to be like this, he didn't expect it to go well before he came, so he didn't hesitate anymore and directly said the decision.
"If you can't find it, you can't find it, anyway, the key is not our purpose this time. ”
Hearing this, Su Ningxue wanted to be surprised again, but Chen Tian secretly held her little hand.
Although Uncle Li was also surprised, because of his identity, he just nodded.
"It's good to come and see, after all, you haven't been here before, I'll take you around here tomorrow, and ask about the whereabouts of the key by the way. ”
"Then thank you Uncle Li. ”
Chen Tian opened his mouth to thank him, but then he refused: "But we didn't come to the old mansion this time to play, so we won't bother Uncle Li to lead the way tomorrow, let's just walk around here." ”
Uncle Li was surprised again, not only by this answer, but also by Su Ningxue's reaction.
According to common sense, Chen Tian, as the son-in-law of the Su family, generally has no right to speak, but now Chen Tian not only did not do this, but also made Su Ningxue obey, which surprised him at the same time, he couldn't help but look at Chen Tian twice.
"That's fine, tomorrow you go around, and I'll concentrate on helping you find out the news. ”
Uncle Li's answer was expected by Chen Tian, although there was nothing special about this, but in order to test it, he still opened his mouth to ask.
"By the way, Uncle Li, do you have any intention of going to Jianghai recently?"
"Because Ning Xue kept telling me that Uncle Li was old before she came, and it was not a long time to always guard the old mansion like this, so she wanted to take you to Jianghai for retirement, I don't know what Uncle Li wants?"
Hearing this, not only Su Ningxue was surprised, but Uncle Li on the other side was also stunned.
Obviously, he didn't expect Chen Tian to ask this, which surprised him and at the same time, he couldn't help but shake his head.
"I'm too old to go anywhere, so I appreciate your kindness. ”
