"Let's take a look at this before we decide." Simon suddenly stopped smiling, and with a stern face, he opened a video in his notebook and pushed it over to Emilia to see.
"What is this?" Emilia stood up in confusion and stretched her neck to stare at the computer screen, and when she saw Paulini with a scar, she suddenly cried and asked Simon, "What happened to Aunt Paulini?" What did you say happened to my Aunt Paulini? β
Aunt Paulini is like a mother to Emilia, so seeing such a miserable Paulini, Emilia's feelings are completely uncontrollable, and she bites her lip and cries.
"Not much, just a beating, about the same as the last time you did." Simon said leisurely, "But I don't guarantee that if you don't kill Bai Yiru, I won't take Paulini's life." β
"You ......" Emilia was almost so angry that she fainted, she held on to the table, and didn't dare to watch the scene of Aunt Paulini's beating in the video, but the sound of Aunt Paulini's screams in her ears pierced her heart deeply, like a thousand arrows piercing her heart.
"Kill Bai Yiru, or kill Paulini, you choose. Right now. Right away. Simon didn't care if his daughter was sad and desperate, he pushed away the notebook and forced her to make a decision ruthlessly.
"Woo." Emilia couldn't stop crying, she sat down on the ground, and the screams of Aunt Paulini in her head did not disappear with the video turned off, but became clearer, as if it had been engraved in her mind, and it had been repeated.
"I didn't call you to hear you cry, nor did I consult with you. You should know exactly what I want. Simon hated the crying Emilia and resisted the urge to kick her away, gritting his teeth and threatening her.
"I, I'll go! I'll go! I'll go! Emilia suddenly went crazy, and said three times in a row that she was going, "I'll kill someone, and I'll kill whoever you tell me to kill, but you must let Aunt Paulini go, and you can't move a finger against her." Otherwise......"
"How else?" Simon asked with a dangerous look in his eyes.
"Nothing. I've promised to kill Bai Yiru now, and you have someone send Aunt Paulini to my room, and I'm going to show her injuries. Emilia still didn't dare to threaten Simon by saying that she was going to kill herself or not kill Bai Yiru.
"Don't worry, from now on, no one will touch Paulini, but if you want me to send her back, you have to show some sincerity first."
Simon's tone didn't look like he was talking to his daughter at all, but like talking to a businessman. He tilted his head slightly, his eyes were gloomy, since Ben and Lilian were not good, he could only find another way, so that he could just cultivate his daughter's ruthless level, and it was really good to kill two birds with one stone.
"What sincerity? I'm going to kill now? "Emilia doesn't know why.
"Nope." Simon shook his index finger from side to side, "You can't do it yet, Lukas is impenetrable to Bai Yiru's protection, and rash action will put you in danger." He paused, "That's it, I'll find you a chance and create conditions for you, you not only have to kill Bai Yiru, but also find a way to kill her two children." β
"Kid?" Emilia raised her forehead, "What's wrong with Sister Yiru's children, you won't let it go?" β
"It's not that I don't let it go, it's that I want to see your sincerity. Three lives in exchange for one life of Paulini, isn't it just a good proof of her importance in your heart? And you know, I never do business that I don't earn, one for one, I don't make money, so ......"
"If I kill Sister Yiru, mother and son, you have to promise me in black and white that no matter what kind of situation you encounter in the future, you will not be able to kill Aunt Paulini. You can't, and can't command anyone, including me. Emilia felt a chill in her heart, afraid that one day Simon would aim a bullet at Aunt Paulini in order to train her abilities.
"Hmm. No problem. Simon readily agreed, anyway, Paulini was a dispensable person, and posed no threat to him, to Emilia, or to the Schultz family, not to the point of letting him take her life.
"Then you plan it and let me know." Emilia struggled to her feet and staggered out.
"In the past few days, you are not allowed to go out without my order, this is for your safety." Simon told Emilia that he would send someone to keep an eye on her.
Emilia nodded without looking back, indicating that she understood.
Killing Bai Yiru is a nightmare for her.
She never wanted to kill anyone, no matter who it was, she didn't want to, she just wanted to inherit the family business cleanly and do business cleanly.
But......
Emilia lay down, closed her swollen eyes, and comforted herself: That's it, sleep first, and then think about the rest when you wake up.

βbertaοΌ Don't run! Alas, you swallow my yarn carefully! She's not enough for you to stuff your teeth! β
Upstairs in the corridor, Berta ran happily with a yarn in her mouth in front of her, and Gu Qixi chased after her, worried that her dog would be accidentally swallowed and eaten by Berta.
"Alas! Alas! Berta, why are you so naughty? Gu Qixi couldn't catch up with berta, so he could only follow the family into Bai Yiru's bedroom.
Berta jumped on the couch and threw the yarn up onto the sheets, but she was squishing left and right in the soft couch she had squished.
"Emma!" Gu Qixi learned from the Northeast people on TV to speak, took a happy deep breath, threw himself on the sheet and picked up the wool, "It's really fortunate, my yarn, you were almost used as a dessert by berta!" β
"Wow! Barking! I didn't know Gu Qixi's wool, turned the cute little round eyes, and screamed happily in Gu Qixi's arms.
"Little fool. Wool is a little fool. "Gu Qixi hasn't played with berta and wool for a long time, and it was a coincidence just now, so after chasing her, she was so excited after holding her dog.
"Smack!"
The sound of things landing, Gu Qixi got up from the sheet and looked in the direction of berta, "berta, you...... God, you actually knocked down your mother's treasure chest! β
The box that Bai Yiru took back from Tong Xiaoxin's parents' house had fallen to the ground, and the contents were scattered all over the ground, and Berta was still hanging the box and shaking it.
"Berta, don't make a fuss, let go." Gu Qixi put down the yarn, ran to Berta, stroked her head with one hand, and took the box from her mouth with the other.
berta twisted around, playing with Gu Qixi, but refused to give the other party the box. She hasn't seen Gu Qixi for a long time, so she will be coquettish and cute with others.
"Bang dang."
Something landed again.
"Alas! What a disobedience! Gu Qixi had no choice but to look down on the ground to find something that fell out of the box, and finally found a seal from under the corner of the table, "Huh?" Isn't this grandma's seal, why did you run into your mother's treasure chest? β
She took the drying rack, climbed under the table, ticked the seal, took it in her hand and looked at it carefully, but the words on the back were different from the one on Ning Keyan, and she couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't it grandma's?" I'm going to ask my mom. β
Gu Qixi quickly went to Bai Yiru's current room.
Because of his injuries, Gu Dongning prepared another room for others to visit Bai Yiru.
"Mom, look, is this grandma's seal?" Gu Qixi held the seal in his hand, and asked excitedly pushing open the door.
"Tanabata, why did you take grandma's seal to play? Give it back to grandma! When Bai Yiru saw the seal, she immediately criticized Gu Qixi sternly, "That's grandma's baby, didn't I tell you not to move?" β
"It's not. Mom, this is not, this is in your treasure chest. Gu Qixi said and stuffed the seal into Bai Yiru's hand, "Look at it, the words on it are different from grandma's!" β
Bai Yiru took a closer look, and sure enough, it was different, the name written on it was an unfamiliar name - Hu Wanyun!
"Where did you find this?" She asked Gu Qixi in surprise, this seal looked exactly the same as Ning Kexi's appearance, the only difference was the name on it.
"Your treasure chest. Just now berta knocked you off the table.,This one fell out of it.,I thought it was grandma's at first.,Is this it? Gu Qixi finished speaking in one breath, but seeing that Bai Yiru's face was wrong, he immediately raised three fingers, "I swear, I didn't play with berta, I just happened to meet her running fast with the wool in her mouth, I was afraid that she would accidentally swallow the wool, so I followed." β
"Hmm. It's okay. Bai Yiru smiled at Gu Qixi, "Qixi, you go and help your mother call grandma, go quickly." β
"Okay." Gu Qixi nodded and left.
Bai Yiru held the seal in her hand, the box left by her mother, she couldn't remember the number of times she opened it since she was a child, but she didn't find this thing once. Who is this Hu Wanyun and what is the relationship with her mother?
Ning Ke came over and listened to Bai Yiru talk about the seal, and after reading the seal, he also shook his head, "I don't recognize this Hu Wanyun either." β
"Mom, I want to go see the box, I'm curious where it fell from." Bai Yiru frowned, there were too many doubts in her heart.
"You can't move, I'll get it for you. You call Dong Ning, this may be a big breakthrough. "I'd rather arrange it for Bai Yiru when I go out.
Bai Yiru didn't hurt one of her arms, so she could make a phone call.
Gu Dongning, who was building a customer, received a call from Bai Yiru, and when he received a call from Bai Yiru, he was able to say sorry to the customer and hurried home.
Ning Keyan found the box, and looked at it with Bai Yiru over and over again, only to find a small hole in a corner of the box.
Bai Yiru pressed hard, and the small piece of wood was buckled open, and like the door, there was a blank space behind the piece of wood.
"That's where it fell." Ning Keyan said, "You haven't found this dark grid before? β
"Nope." Bai Yiru shook his head, I just saw a badge in it, with some words written on it that I didn't recognize.
"I'll take a look." Ning Ke saw the badge when she was packing the box just now, but she didn't look carefully, and after listening to what Bai Yiru said, she went to look for it again.
Bai Yiru stared at the three words 'Hu Wanyun' on the seal, and her brows became more and more wrinkled.
"Yiru, what seal, I'll take a look." Gu Dongning almost drove back in a flying car, running all the way upstairs from the hall, working harder than he had participated in the sports meeting before, he pushed the door in excitedly, without a single extra word, and went straight to the point.
"Wow. That's it. Bai Yiru gave the seal to Gu Dongning, "Do you know Hu Wanyun?" Mom said she didn't know. β
"I don't know. But this must have something to do with Mom's. Gu Dongning suddenly understood that the one who stole the seal must be Simon's person.
"Yes. You see, in this dark compartment, there is nothing but seals. Could it be that my mother thought the seal was priceless, so she hid it in a secret grid? Bai Yiru speculated, "However, this doesn't make sense." Because of her mother's wooden box, she didn't care much about it before, she just kept it at home at random, saying that it was an empty box given by her grandmother when she got married, and she used it to hold a wooden comb or something. β
"When did your mother give you this box?" Gu Dongning looked at the empty wooden box, the box that was old and old, and the paint was mottled.
"Not long before my mom died, she seemed to have found out that there was someone outside my dad, so she gave me the box, said let me hold it, let the box accompany me in the future, and said that I could put my favorite gadgets in the box."
Bai Yiru carefully recalled the things when she was a child, and said that children's memories are easy to blur, but she remembers the memories of her mother very clearly.
"At that time, Zhao Yali had already given birth to Bai Yaoyao and Bai Yizhang, and my mother was about to commit suicide again, she couldn't figure it out and felt uncomfortable, but I interrupted her, so she hugged me and cried. Not long after that, she gave me the box. I really don't know if my grandmother put this seal in or my mother put it in. β
"Maybe she wants to leave some thoughts for you, she wants to kill herself, but she can't let you go." Gu Dongning touched Bai Yiru's cheek, "It's hard work." β
"I'm fine. Fortunately, my mother didn't commit suicide, otherwise I wouldn't have been so optimistic. But my mother still ......" Bai Yiru couldn't help but sigh when she thought of her mother's death, and her heart tightened uncomfortably, "She is unlucky, and her life is hard." When I met people like my dad and Zhao Yali, she was not alive and alive, and she couldn't live forever when she died. β
"Don't think about it, it won't happen again. I promise. Gu Dongning hugged Bai Yiru distressedly, he knew that she was talking about digging the grave.
Bai Yiru nodded.
After a while, Ning Keyan came over with a badge, with a little excited look on her face.
"I just went back to the house to look for reading glasses and magnifying glasses, and took a closer look at them." She took the badge and pointed to the words on it to show Bai Yiru and Gu Dongning, "It is a medal issued by the royal family to officers in the past, but it is actually a meritorious medal, but it has been a long time." This seal, I also checked it a little on the Internet, and there was only one batch issued by the royal family, which was issued in the same year, and that year coincided with the National Day ceremony, and medals were awarded to officers who had made special contributions to the country in the army, and there were only three in total. β
"Merit medals, only three?" Bai Yiru was excited.
"Then as long as you find out who these three seals are issued to, you should be able to find out your relationship with Zhong Jing." Gu Dongning also began to get excited, this seal is German, and it actually arrived in Bai Yiru's treasure chest, which means that her mother's side is connected to Germany.
"I don't know if it's good to check it." Bai Yiru also thought the same way just now, so she was excited, three pieces are much easier than three hundred, but after a long time, it is also difficult.
"This should be found to be teachable or documentary, and it will definitely record such a glorious and memorable moment, not only can you find written records, but you should also be able to find pictures." Ning Keyan also saw a little bit of information on the Internet just now, but it was not complete, so I don't know which three people the seal was sent to.
"I'll send someone to find it now." Gu Dongning stood up excitedly, and walked out while looking for Ah Qi.
After Ah Qi heard this, he immediately started to take action and find a badge, which was much simpler than others.
Bai Yiru suddenly remembered the seal in his hand, and said to Ning Keyan: "Mom, check the seal too." The one of yours belongs to my grandmother, and this one of mine may be someone my grandmother knows? I don't know if it has anything to do with my mother's background, but it's always good to check it. β
"Hmm. I'll go tell Dong Ning about this, don't think about it yet. Give me your box, I'll go and put all the gadgets back up for you, and this time it's fine. Ning Keyan took the box from Bai Yiru's hand, went out and closed the door and left.
Bai Yiru's mood couldn't be calm at all, she couldn't wait to investigate herself, but she was injured, she couldn't go anywhere, so she could only lie down anxiously.
The news of the seal and badge soon reached Master Gu, and when he came back from the chess club, he directly asked Gu Dongning to come and see.
"I don't know this seal, but I do know it." He pinched the badge and said, "Those who received this medal are people who almost sacrificed for the country, and they have contributed a lot, so they were awarded such a precious medal." Don't look at it, it's not made of gold and silver, but the meaning is immeasurable, so it's also priceless. β
"Grandpa, do you know who it is?" Bai Yiru didn't expect Master Gu to recognize this badge, so he would have shown it to him earlier.
"Hmm. One at David's house and one at ours. However, the one in our family, when my father was alive, was donated to the country and placed in the museum as a collection exhibition. "Master Gu knew very well where the three badges went, and he completely listened to what his father said.
This badge is the glory of the family, originally his father was going to pass it on to Master Gu, but he was still patriotic and donated it to the country when the country needed it.
"So, grandpa, where is the other one?" Gu Dongning asked breathlessly.
