Chapter 199: Luring the Wolf into the House
After An Xiabai suggested that they talk with an open mind, Ruqing found an opportunity after dinner and asked Shen Ya to go to the garden to spread together.
Shen Ya agreed.
The relationship between the two of them is equivalent to openness in the Lu family, and people know that they are a couple who have had some conflicts recently, so when they meet on the road, they deliberately walk around, which just gives Ruqing the opportunity to confess her thoughts.
"I thought, I want to tell you something." Because she was too nervous, Ruqing trembled a little when she spoke.
Shen Ya smiled soothingly: "I'm not a flood beast, what are you so afraid of me for?" ā
The familiar Shen Ya is back!
This realization made Ruqing squint and smile, and her heart warmed slightly: "I'm just a little nervous." ā
She remembered the trick that Qin Shuang'er had told her before, that a woman should play a weak role in a timely manner, especially in front of her sweetheart, when she was alone with her sweetheart, she should be more gentle and well-behaved, so she was now thinking about how to tell Shen Ya what she was thinking.
It is precisely because of this consideration that she will not even be able to speak.
Shen Ya was rarely enlightened, and when he saw her twisting appearance, he couldn't help but think of what An Xiabai had said earlier.
Ruqing is to change her mind, so she pretends to be weak?
The emotion in my heart is real, and the funny is also real.
"Actually, you don't have to." Shen Ya took Ruqing's hand, and Wen Sheng expressed his heart to her, "I am attracted to you, mainly because of your character, although sometimes this kind of temperament does bring trouble, but the feelings are real, you don't have to deliberately pretend to be another in order to please me, or to repair the relationship between us." ā
He paused, and then said softly to Ruqing: "You just need to be yourself." ā
Ruqing raised her eyes and looked surprised.
There was a trace of messy broken hair on her sideburns, and Shen Ya saw it and helped to put it behind her head.
Ruqing's cheeks turned red, and she couldn't help but be shy: "If you really like the character, why did you alienate me before?" ā
"The main reason is that you did something wrong, but now it seems that you know what you were wrong and are willing to change-"
Before Shen Ya could finish speaking, Ruqing hurriedly proved herself: "Something similar will never happen in the future, I know what I did wrong at the beginning!" ā
She always counts when she speaks, so Shen Ya doesn't doubt the truth of her words at all.
"I believe in you."
Shen Ya said that, and smiled slightly at Ruqing, Ruqing's heart was happy.
His previous efforts were not in vain, Shen Ya finally forgiven, and the relationship between the two improved.
There is no better news in the world than this!
Ruqing smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth, and when she spread out in the garden, the smile on the corner of her lips was gone.
Just when the two of them released their suspicions, in the gazebo in the garden, An Xiabai and Lu Li were drinking wine to the moon.
The recent troubles are always one after another, and it can be said that there are waves of unevenness, and even if they are fine, the two of them have to take care of the children, and it is rare to have a free drink like tonight.
The atmosphere in the gazebo was quiet, and they snuggled up together, and a word was worth a thousand words.
"Husband, I suddenly want to tell you something."
Lu Li raised his eyebrows, looked down at An Xiabai's face, saw that her face was slightly red, and realized that she might be drunk, so he answered with a smile: "Madam, what are you telling me?" ā
"That's, it'sā" Anxia suddenly fell silent as she spoke, as if she wanted to say something unspeakable, and even the tips of her ears were stained crimson.
"I'm here." Lu Li increased the strength of the hug, and said softly, "Madame can speak slowly." ā
An Xiabai groaned, leaned closer with a red face, and then said a few words in Lu Li's ear.
Lu Li's eyes lit up as if they had fallen into a star.
"Madam, is what you say true?"
An Xia gave him a blank look, and said with a sneer: "If you hadn't heard what you said just now, I wouldn't have repeated it a second time." ā
She is thin-skinned, even if she is drunk, she will be embarrassed, and the love words that she said in Lu Li's ear just now were all said through the strength of wine.
"I hear you." Lu Li directly picked up the person and turned around happily twice.
It made An Xiabai dizzy, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly hugged Lu Li's neck: "Husband, let me down!" I'm feeling a little uncomfortable! ā
Lu Li did as he said: "I was so happy just now, I was a little impulsive!" ā
Anxiabai is drunk and should not do strenuous exercise.
The latter was amused by his decisive apology: "I can see that you are really happy, husband, is it worth it, I am just confessing." ā
For her, it is a matter of three or two sentences, but for Lu Li, it is like a sweet candy.
Lu Li smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth: "Of course it's worth it, this is what Madame told me." ā
Before meeting An Xiabai, Lu Li's life was only career and helping his family wash away grievances, and he never put the love of children in his eyes, until he knew and loved her, and he realized that there was such pure feelings in the world.
An Xiabai's smile can tug at his heartstrings.
Lu Li hugged the person in his arms tightly, and confessed with a solemn expression: "Madam, Lu Li will never fail you in this life." ā
Just when the two of them were sweet and tired together, somewhere in the capital, Feng Bailin was drinking sullen wine in front of the moon.
The guard walked quickly to him.
"The news has been released, what does Bai Xiaosheng say?" Feng Bailin raised his eyes and glanced at the guard.
During the day today, in order to achieve the purpose of protecting Lu Li and An Xiabai, he deliberately released the news, saying that he would hire a murderer, and the amount of money was not necessarily taken by some nobles in the capital.
There are indeed warriors under the heavy money, and Bai Xiaosheng, who is quite famous in the capital, took the initiative to take over the work and said that he would get things done.
Feng Bailin just sent him the task.
originally thought that the matter could be completed on the same day, but later Bai Xiaosheng delayed on the grounds that Lu Li's status was relatively high and he was proficient in martial arts, so he couldn't get angry, so he asked the guards to urge.
The guard said respectfully, "He said it would be as soon as possible." ā
Feng Bailin's face was cold, and he raised his hand and smashed the cup directly: "Buying a murderer with a lot of money is not buying him to delay time, you go and urge him again!" ā
Feng Bailin was so anxious, the main reason was that he had anger in his heart.
He is the prince of the dynasty, although he is not the crown prince, but he is also the emperor's biological son, and he has not suffered this kind of grievance after living for so many years, he really can't bear this tone.
On the other hand, he wanted Lu Li to die.
If Bai Xiaosheng's killer is useful and can successfully kill Lu Li, An Xiabai will be equivalent to a duckweed in the capital in the future, and then he will have a way to make her Qufu!
Feng Bailin's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his lips hooked a sneer: "I can't wait to collect my loot." ā
The guard didn't know what was going on in his mind, but judging by the expression on his face, it was clearly not a good thing.
He subconsciously shuddered, said yes and left in a hurry.
Because Feng Bailin was in a bad mood today, the maids and guards who were originally serving with him were dismissed by him, and now as soon as the guards left, he was the only one left in the entire pavilion.
The surroundings were quiet, occasionally there was some movement, and the half-drunk people did not notice it.
This is an opportunity for the ambushers to take advantage of.
After they glanced at each other in the shadows, the soldiers slowly approached Feng Bailin from behind in two steps.
Before the person who was calculated could react, the man in black covered his mouth with a cloth.
This feeling of danger made Feng Bailin's eyes widen subconsciously and he began to struggle, but it was a pity that he was a person who was not very proficient in martial arts, and he was not as good as the people who had obviously practiced countless times in them, and he was quickly pressed to the ground and subdued, and he could no longer make any sound.
Feng Bailin's heart was desperate.
Seeing the fear in his eyes, the man in black at the head sneered and pulled out a short knife.
The cold light flickered under the moon, and Feng Bailin's body couldn't help trembling in fright.
"If you dare to struggle, I'll kill you, understand?"
The shadow of death hung over his heart, and after thinking that the guards and maids had been dismissed to the front yard by himself, and now even after shouting loudly, it was impossible for them to rush over in time to save his life, Feng Bailin chose to compromise.
He gave up struggling.
This makes the work of the man in black much easier.
This group of people had obviously prepared in advance, and when they entered the courtyard where Feng Bailin lived, they could find the study without even asking, and they could accurately rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find what they wanted.
It was the silver tael that Feng Bailin used to buy the murderer.
"That's a lot of money." The leader of the men in black put the silver ticket in his pocket, smiled and whistled at Feng Bailin.
Feng Bailin was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
While he was angry and annoyed, he was also a little happy.
Fortunately, these men in black did not come for their own lives, if they came here to take his life, it is estimated that he is already cold now.
"Boss, are we going to kill him?" A man in black asked the leader, "If this matter is spread by him, won't we have a hard time in the future?" ā
The leader glared at his subordinates, and was very disgusted with the other party's IQ: "The person who can come up with such a huge amount of money must have a noble status, and no matter how bad it is, he is also a nobleman in the capital, and we will only cause more trouble for ourselves if we kill him." ā
"And we're going to leave people like that?" The subordinate said in a worried tone, "What if he calls someone?" ā
The leader smiled coldly: "Won't it be okay if you are stunned?" ā
"Hmm...."Feng Bailin's eyes widened, and his frightened gaze looked at the leader's raised arm.
Before he could think of a way to escape, the leader's knife fell on him.
Feng Bailin fell into a coma.
By the time he was conscious again, a full time had passed, and the rope tied to his body was still untied by Su Ruyue, who came to deliver breakfast the next day.
Su Ruyue had tears in her eyes, and she untied the rope while crying.
Feng Bailin, who was sore all over, had a very bad face and was in a bad mood: "I'm not dead yet, why are you crying?" ā
"I just don't feel good about it." Su Ruyue said while crying, "Cousin, you were tied up all night like this, and I was almost scared to death when I came over just now!" ā
Her appearance didn't look like she was pretending, which made Feng Bailin's face soften slightly.
The great luck of the misfortune is that the man in black came for money, and only stole the previous things in his room, and did not harm his life.
Among them, there was another thing that caused Feng Bailin a headache.
He seems to owe Su Ruyue a favor again.
