Chapter 46: The Femme Fatale
At the critical moment, Ying Xi, who put down the wine glass after drinking, looked at Bai Lian, who hurriedly hid the porcelain piece in her sleeve and stroked her hair in a pretended gesture.
Bai Lian turned to observe Lu Hehuan, she quietly took off a hairpin from her head, and prepared to stab Lu Hehuan's neck. Suddenly, Lu Hehuan turned his head, Bai Lian was startled, and dropped the hairpin on the ground by mistake.
"Miss White Lotus, why don't you sit?" Lu Hehuan looked at Bai Lian suspiciously.
"My hairpin fell to the ground." White Lotus pretended to be calm.
Ying Xi suddenly handed the hairpin to Bai Lian, "Is it this?" ”
"Yes." Bai Lian nodded in a panic.
"Come, I'll put it on for you." Ying Xi said as she helped Bailian put on a hairpin.
"Thank you." Bai Lian pretended to smile gratefully.
Ying Xi didn't notice Bai Lian's abnormality, and took advantage of the wine to talk generously, "Miss Bailian, if anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will help you out!" ”
Bai Lian pretended to be moved and picked up the flask to pour wine for Ying Xi, and at the same time secretly twisted the ring, and a drop of poison dripped out of the ring, right on Ying Xi's wine glass. Unexpectedly, Ying Xi suddenly picked up the wine glass, and the poison dripped on the table.
Ying Xi took the flask from Bai Lian's hand, "Sister Bai Lian, I'll come by myself, since we are brothers and sisters, you don't have to serve me anymore, just let me take care of you." Ying Xi said and poured wine for Bai Lian, and Bai Lian couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
"Come, drink!" Ying Xi drank it all, and Bai Lian had no choice but to drink the wine.
Seeing that Ying Xi was not easy to deal with, Bai Lian picked up the wine jug and walked to Lu Hehuan's side, "Since my brother won't let me serve, then I will always serve this uncle." Bai Lian said that she was going to pour wine for Lu Hehuan, and at the same time secretly twisted the ring, and a drop of poison dripped out of the ring and dripped onto Lu Hehuan's wine glass.
Lu Hehuan directly blocked his hand on the mouth of the wine glass, Bai Lian quickly withdrew the hand with the ring, and the poison dripped to the ground.
"Miss White Lotus doesn't have to take care of me, I'll just pour myself a drink." Lu Hehuan smiled awkwardly.
Bai Lian was secretly annoyed, and barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
After a while, Ying Xi picked up the wine jug again and filled the wine glasses of the three of them, "Come on, let's continue drinking." ”
Bai Lian perfunctorily picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
"Come, let's have a drink." Ying Xi raised a glass to invite Lu Hehuan.
Bai Lian saw the opportunity, took advantage of Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi's inattention, quickly grabbed the chopsticks on the table, walked around behind the two, and wanted to stab again.
At the critical moment, Ying Xi grabbed Bai Lian's chopsticks and snatched them over, "I said, let me take care of you, what you eat, I'll clip it for you." Ying Xi said and took a piece of meat, and stuffed it directly into Bailian's mouth regardless of it, "Eat a piece of meat, it's nutritious." ”
Bai Lian was forced into a piece of meat in her mouth, secretly annoyed, she finally swallowed the meat, Ying Xi took another piece of meat and stuffed it into her mouth, "Eat more, look at you so thin!" ”
Bai Lian was angry and smiled perfunctorily, she turned around secretly, her eyes were fierce, and she took out a small box from her arms. Bai Lian shook slightly, and the small box opened in an instant, and after some transformation, it turned into a three-foot big knife.
Bai Lian held the big knife and looked at the backs of Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi fiercely.
Ying Xi poured wine for himself and Lu Hehuan, and raised his glass, "Come, drink!" ”
Lu Hehuan took the wine glass and raised a glass with Ying Xi to drink.
Bai Lian held the big knife in her hand and stood behind Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi, she stared at the two of them with a cruel look in her eyes. In a trance, Bai Lian remembered the unbearable past.
The lights flickered in the private room of the Qinglou, and a teenage girl with messy hair curled up on the bed, her eyes frightened.
"Come, drink!" Two prostitutes sit at the table and drink each other.
After drinking, the two approached the little girl with a lewd smile on their faces.
"I heard that the bustard just bought it, let's try it today!" The two of them pounced on the little girl like hungry wolves.
Bai Lian's body trembled, and she gritted her teeth and stared at Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi who were drinking, as if the two people in front of her were the prostitutes who had once ** her, and they were hideous.
Ying Xi and Lu Hehuan didn't know it, and continued to drink heavily.
Bai Lian's face was cold, and he raised the big knife and swept it over at Ying Xi's waist, Ying Xi stood up and took the wine jug, and inadvertently dodged the big knife. Ying Xi took the flask and poured the wine, and found that the flask was empty.
Bai Lian went to cut Lu Hehuan with his backhand, and Lu Hehuan saw that the wine jug in Ying Xi's hand was out of wine, so he got up to get another pot of wine, and inadvertently dodged a knife.
Bai Lian missed one after another, and couldn't help but be annoyed, she gritted her teeth, raised the big knife, and swept it over again according to the waists of the two.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Bai Lian hurriedly folded the big knife and put it in her arms.
Outside the private room of the bosom friend building, the old bustard stood at the door, clutching a handkerchief in horror. Behind her stood several sturdy men, majestically blocking the corridor.
The strong man in the lead was dressed in a black and red suit, with big ears, a high nose, and a hint of murder at the corner of his mouth, staring intently at the old bustard.
"White Lotus, White Lotus......" The old bustard knocked on the door tremblingly.
Seeing the white lotus open the door, the old bustard looked at the strong man with a resentful face, and the strong men glanced at each other and were about to rush in, but unexpectedly, the door suddenly opened.
As soon as Bai Lian went out, the strong men came up to restrain Bai Lian without saying a word.
"What are you doing?" Bai Lian was stunned for a moment.
"You know it in your heart, take it!" The leading strong man snorted coldly and replied in an unkind tone.
The strong men wanted to take Bai Lian away, Bai Lian wanted to resist, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi who were sitting in the house drinking.
"Help, two brothers save me!" Bai Lian shouted bitterly towards the private room.
Ying Xi looked at the door when he heard the sound, and saw two strong men holding the thin Bai Lian, and the white lotus was looking at him pitifully, and he was immediately furious.
"Where did the client of the prostitute come from to bully a weak woman!" Ying Xi said that he slapped the table and got up, and rushed out directly, and it was too late for Lu Hehuan on the side to stop him.
"Take your hand away!" Ying Xi walked up to him and pushed away the strong man holding the white lotus.
The leader of the strong man was annoyed and motioned to his subordinates, "Take him away with you." ”
"Yes."
The strong men began to besiege Ying Xi, and Ying Xi picked up Wang Ba and fought with everyone. The old bustard on the side was so frightened that he hugged his head and ran away screaming.
The two strong men besieged Ying Xi one after the other, and the two punched together, Ying Xi quickly squatted down, and the two ate each other's punches. Ying Xi took the opportunity to sweep the hall and kicked the two strong men down.
Another strong man saw that his companion had missed, and immediately rushed up, Ying Xi, who was familiar with the bosom friend building, quickly opened the window of a private room, and the strong man slammed into the window, and suddenly became dizzy.
Seeing that Ying Xi had succeeded repeatedly, the leading strong man couldn't help but be furious, he gritted his teeth and pointed to the two subordinates beside him, "Catch him for me!" ”
The two strong men who were originally holding the white lotus immediately rushed forward, and Ying Xi's two fists were invincible to the four hands, and his color changed in shock.
"I'm fighting with you—" Ying Xi closed his eyes and shouted at the top of his voice as he picked up Wang Ba's fist.
After Wang Baquan finished punching, Ying Xi opened his eyes and found two strong men with their arms folded in front of their chests, staring at him.
Ying Xi blinked, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, took a few steps back in fright, and turned to run. Unexpectedly, one of the strong men chased after him and grabbed Ying Xi's collar, while the other clenched his fist and gurgled it.
Lu Hehuan, who was standing on the side, saw Ying Xi getting into trouble, and shook his head helplessly, "Be nosy." ”
"I have only one request, don't slap your face!" Ying Xi thought that he couldn't hide, and begged for mercy from the two strong men.
"Then I can't help you!" The strong men smirked.
The brawny men raised their fists and closed their eyes in despair. At the moment when several fists were about to smash into Ying Xi's cheeks, Lu Hehuan rushed forward and knocked the strong man besieging Ying Xi to the ground with three punches and two kicks.
"Don't forget what we're here for, let's go!" Lu Hehuan lowered his voice to remind Ying Xi while pulling Ying Xi away.
Ying Xi came back to his senses, and pulled up Bai Lian, who was trembling and standing on the side, "Sister Bai Lian, follow me!" ”
Bai Lian nodded gratefully, followed Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi and stumbled towards the back door of the bosom friend building.
The strong men who were knocked to the ground got up one after another, and when they saw that Bai Lian and his party had fled, they all looked at the strong men in the lead with blue noses and swollen faces.
"Chief, what now?" One of the brawny men asked.
The leading strong man frowned slightly, "Follow me!" ”
Several strong men left.
The night was clouded, and Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi, who were still wearing lip prints on their faces, pulled Bai Lian and ran wildly in the back alley of the Bosom Friend Building. Seeing that the strong men couldn't catch up for a while, Bai Lian tried to get rid of Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi.
"Oops, it hurts." White Lotus pretended to twist her feet.
Lu Hehuan and Ying Xi stopped, Ying Xi leaned down and looked concerned, "What's wrong?" ”
"I accidentally twisted my foot just now...... Brother, thank you so much, you guys leave me alone, let's go, in case the bad guys catch up, it'll be troublesome. With tears in her eyes, Bai Lian pretended to be pitiful and said.
"I'll help you find a safe place first." Ying Xi said and picked up the white lotus regardless of it.
Lu Hehuan saw that Ying Xi was determined to save Bailian, and shook his head, "Don't forget to get down to business......"
"Save people to the end, let's go." Ying Xi interrupted Lu Hehuan and said firmly.
"Where are you going?" Lu Hehuan sighed and stopped dissuading.
Ying Xi looked up and looked ahead, but saw that the plaque that read "Ruyi Inn" not far away was shining, he thought about it and motioned to Lu He Huan, "Those people just now don't know where they came from, so go to that inn to hide first." ”
Bai Lian was secretly anxious, and dissuaded: "I don't need you to send it, I will find a safe place myself." ”
"No, how can you do it alone?" Ying Xi's attitude was resolute, he mistakenly thought that Bai Lian didn't want to trouble others, and comforted him gently, "Sister Bai Lian, you're welcome. ”
"I'm fine alone, let's go." Bai Lian was really anxious.
"Listen to me, and to be safe, we'll send you there."
"Not really!" Bai Lian was slightly angry.
"Don't be polite to me." Ying Xi said, and forcibly ran towards the inn with the white lotus on his back.
Lu Hehuan reluctantly followed Ying Xi.
The plaque of the Ruyi Inn emits a few rays of light. Ying Xi carried the white lotus on his back and walked into the Ruyi Inn with Lu Hehuan.
Not far away, a street vendor selling fried chestnuts with sugar took advantage of the light to see Ying Xi hurriedly running into the inn with the white lotus on his back, he frowned, didn't care about the stall, turned around and ran.
The lights of the Shuangxi Detective Agency were bright, and Liu Rushuang slammed the table angrily, making Bai Yulou standing next to her and the vendor standing opposite her tremble.
Liu Rushuang rolled her eyes coldly and stared at the vendor angrily, "Are you sure you saw the wrong person?" ”
The peddler was too timid to answer.
Liu Rushuang was anxious and stomped her foot, "You are talking, have you seen clearly, it is really Brother Xi who carried a woman to Ruyi Inn?" ”
"Yes, you should be right, although that person is wearing a pair of glasses, it looks like Inspector Ying." The peddler replied boldly.
"How can this be reasonable, to take a woman to the inn to fool around!" Liu Rushuang gritted her teeth.
Bai Yulou on the side was secretly refreshed in his heart, and took the opportunity to splash dirty water on Ying Xi, "I think this is Ying Xi's nature, Sister Shuang, I think this kind of person who doesn't know what to do, he should draw a line with him as soon as possible and stay away from him." ”
"Stop talking nonsense, follow me to the Ruyi Inn!" Liu Rushuang's teeth clenched and said sharply.
When Bai Yulou heard this, he immediately came to his senses, and approached Liu Rushuang with a smile, "Sister Shuang is going to break off with Ying Xi?" ”
"I'm going to cut that who seduced Brother Xi in two!" Liu Rushuang had tears in her eyes and waved her hand.
Bai Yulou was shocked, but he didn't expect Liu Rushuang to respond to joy and infatuation, but instead spread her anger on other women.
Ying Xi was overzealous and settled the white lotus in the room of the Ruyi Inn.
"You're not ordinary guests, are you?" Bai Lian asked as she sat on the edge of the bed, pretending to rub her ankles.
Ying Xi nodded, "We are ......" He just popped out three words, and Lu Hehuan, who was standing on the side, secretly poked Ying Xi and lowered his voice, "Don't forget that we came out in civilian clothes to carry out the mission." ”
Ying Xi understood, and hurriedly changed his words to Bai Lian, "Oh, we are in business, now the world is not peaceful, business is not good, if you are in a bad mood, go to the bosom friend building to relax." ”
"Doing business?" Bai Lian stared at Ying Xi suspiciously.
"Yes." Ying Xi nodded.
"What kind of business?" Bai Lian pretended to ask nonchalantly.
"Hmm......" Ying Xi was speechless for a while.
Lu Hehuan relieved Ying Xi from the side, "Miss Bai, it's not convenient for us to disclose the business we do, please forgive me." ”
Bai Lian didn't want to ask any more, so she pretended to be understanding and nodded.
Ying Xi saw that Bai Lian's thin body was thin, and stepped forward with a concerned face, "Are your feet okay?" ”
"It's okay...... Thank you for saving me, if it wasn't for you, I don't know what would have happened. Bai Lian shook her head and said pitifully.
"Miss White Lotus, who are those just now? Why should I have trouble with you? Lu Hehuan couldn't figure out why a weak woman in Bailian could offend so many people, so she couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, I offended the guests before, and those people are the ones the guests came to take revenge on me...... Alas, in our line of work, it is common for us to be bullied and scolded by guests. Bai Lian was slightly stunned and explained.
"Miss Bailian, you can rest assured that you can rest here......" Ying Xi looked sympathetic, but before he finished speaking, the door behind him was kicked open.
A cold wind hit, and Liu Rushuang and Bai Yulou stood at the door. One of the two was angry, the other was happy, and the frightened Ying Xi was like falling into the clouds, and they didn't know how Liu Rushuang and her little followers followed here.
Liu Rushuang stared at Bai Lian, her chest rose and fell, and she didn't know how much anger was held in it.
"I want to have a good rest, no way!" Liu Rushuang took Ying Xi's words and said.
Ying Xi looked at Liu Rushuang, "Why are you here?" ”
"I didn't expect you to run here to fool around with a!" Liu Rushuang cried and rushed to Bai Lian, "You vixen, I want you to look good today!" In vain, call me! ”
Bai Yulou rushed over and was about to hit Ying Xi, but was pushed away by Liu Rushuang, "I'll let you beat this vixen!" ”
Bai Yulou nodded, rushed over and tore the white lotus with Liu Rushuang, Ying Xi and Lu Hehuan hurriedly stopped it.
"Have you made enough trouble?" Ying Xi grabbed Liu Rushuang.
Lu Hehuan grabbed Bai Yulou.
"You let go of me, I'm going to disfigure her!" Liu Rushuang did not give up.
"Get the two of them out!" Ying Heineken was unable to do so and asked Lu Hehuan for help.
Liu Rushuang and Bai Yulou were dragged out by Ying Xi and Lu Hehuan, the two kept struggling, Ying Xi and Lu Hehuan had no choice but to forcibly carry the two out of the door.
Outside the guest room, Ying Xi put down Liu Rushuang and was furious, "Liu Rushuang, you are too much!" ”
"Look at your face! In vain, wipe the lip prints off Brother Xi's face! Liu Rushuang pointed to Ying Xi's face and continued to cry.
Bai Yulou took out a silk handkerchief and handed it to Ying Xi, while mocking: "Running all over the street with the lip prints of the Qinglou woman, don't you know that you are ashamed?" ”
"Lip prints on the face indicate that the girls like it, what is there to be ashamed of being liked? I don't think you can eat grapes and say grapes are sour. Ying Xi took the silk handkerchief, wiped the lip prints on his face, and shot back disappreciatively.
Bai Yulou pursed his lips, disdainful and angry with Ying Xi, he glanced at Lu Hehuan next to him with disdain, handed over another silk handkerchief, and snorted coldly, "It's really close to Zhu and red and black to ink, I didn't expect you to be taken into the pit by Ying Xi so soon." ”
"It's all a misunderstanding!" Lu Hehuan embarrassedly snatched the silk handkerchief and explained while wiping his face hard.
Ying Xi wiped his lip prints three times and twice, and coldly returned the silk handkerchief to Bai Yulou.
Liu Rushuang angrily grabbed the glasses off Ying Xi's face, "Brother Xi, what about your bohemianism?" What about the suave? How can you pretend to be Sven with glasses for that kind of woman! ”
"Liu Rushuang, what are you making trouble!" Ying Xi is impatient.
"Miss Liu, you misunderstood!" Lu Hehuan was afraid that the two would quarrel again, so he persuaded and explained.
Liu Rushuang took the opportunity to make Lu Hehuan angry, and ripped off Lu Hehuan's fake beard, "I actually stuck a fake beard to help Brother Xi do bad things, shameless!" ”
"What the hell do you want to do!" should be happy to see Liu Rushuang like a mad dog, catching and biting whom, and couldn't help but be angry.
Liu Rushuang was in tears, looking at Ying Xi affectionately, word by word, "I want to catch the traitor!" ”
"Liu Rushuang, first, I'm nothing to you, who are you going to catch? Second, Lu Hehuan and I are saving people, how can there be any adultery to catch? Ying Xi suppressed his anger.
"Saving people?" Liu Rushuang had tears in her eyes and was suspicious.
Lu Hehuan hurriedly interjected and explained: "It seems that Miss Liu has misunderstood, Inspector Ying and I originally went to the Bosom Friend Building to investigate the case in disguise, and it happened that Miss Bailian was in trouble, so Inspector Ying pulled out a knife to help and save Miss Bailian, but I was worried that those bad people would continue to be unfavorable to Miss Bai, so I temporarily placed Miss Bai here." ”
"Is it really that simple?" Liu Rushuang stared at Ying Xi suspiciously.
Ying Xi avoided Liu Rushuang's inquiring gaze and looked at Lu Hehuan impatiently, "Why are you explaining this to her?" ”
"It's better to make it clear than a misunderstanding." Lu Hehuan is colorful.
Liu Rushuang knew that Lu Hehuan had a tendon and would not lie at all, so she immediately lowered her head in disappointment, "You were originally on a mission?" That woman came to the rescue when she was in trouble? ”
"What do you think?" Ying Xi asked angrily.
Suddenly, Liu Rushuang remembered something and raised her head, "Why did Brother Xi carry that woman on his back?" ”
Ying Xi coldly turned his head away and didn't say a word.
Lu Hehuan looked at Ying Xi, and then turned to look at Liu Rushuang, "When she ran away, the white girl sprained her foot, and Inspector Ying carried the white girl all the way to the inn." ”
"Really?" Liu Rushuang wanted to verify it one last time.
Lu Hehuan nodded seriously.
Ying Xi saw Liu Rushuang asking east and west, and couldn't help but be irritable, and spread her anger to Lu Hehuan, "What do you explain?" I should be happy to carry whichever girl I want, what does it matter to her? ”
Liu Rushuang was secretly happy, and immediately put on a sensible and well-behaved appearance, "Brother Xi, you go back to the police station to report to your official duties first, and I will help take care of Miss Bailian." ”
Ying Xi was so shocked that his jaw was about to fall, but he didn't expect Liu Rushuang to tear the white lotus just now, and now he vowed to take care of the white lotus, he looked at Liu Rushuang suspiciously, "You? ”
Liu Rushuang patted her chest with a sincere face, "Don't worry, Brother Xi, wrap it up on me." ”
Ying Xi was still not at ease, but now he had to go back to the police station to report the situation, he frowned, and looked at Lu Hehuan, "Let's go back to the police station first." ”
Lu Hehuan nodded and left with Ying Xi.
Seeing the two of them walking away, Liu Rushuang's face changed, and she looked at Bai Yulou, "Bai Bai, you are guarding at the door." ”
"Got it, Sister Frost." Bai Yulou nodded obediently.
Liu Rushuang tidied up her clothes and walked into the room in a big way.
Bai Yulou stood at the door frustratedly, thinking of Ying Xi and Liu Rushuang releasing his previous suspicions, he stomped his feet unwillingly.
The electric light in the inn room glowed dimly, and Bai Lian sat on the edge of the bed, thoughtful. Suddenly, Liu Rushuang broke in, she closed the door with her hand, and shook it in front of Bai Lian, just now she patronized and quarreled with Ying Xi, and she didn't have time to see Bai Lian's appearance.
Liu Rushuang's critical gaze wandered around Bai Lian, but seeing that the other party did have a bit of a posture, she pouted jealously, "It's not good." ”
Bai Lian stroked her hair and lowered her head silently.
Liu Rushuang approached Bai Lian, frowned, pinched her nose, and looked disdainful, "A smell of vulgar powder, it's disgusting!" ”
Bai Lian's hand brushing her hair secretly forced, and she hurriedly glanced at Liu Rushuang.
"Seduce someone else's crush, shameless!" Liu Rushuang looked away and continued to insinuate.
Bai Lian gritted her teeth, and her eyes revealed a bit of fierceness.
