Chapter 20: No Choice

At the end of the Lu house, Lu Jingnian had already returned home with Bai Cen.

As before, the two didn't know each other much.

So even under one roof, they are more like roommates, generally silent and don't talk much.

Lu Jingnian doesn't talk much, but Bai Cen doesn't want to talk much, she knows that if you say a word, you will lose it.

So the house was filled with an eerie silence.

But the arrival of someone broke the silence.

I only heard the sound of an idle sigh, and before the door could be opened, the sound came in from outside the bungalow.

There was another sound of fingerprint locking the door open.

This Bai Cen is still doing this thing in his own hands, and is planning to fill his stomach with some noodles.

So he looked out.

Rocco walked in slowly, and then someone came in with her.

When this man appeared from behind Rocco, he blocked a piece of light, and compared to Rocco, he became very tall.

Bai Cen glanced at the man behind Rocco, this person had a fair face, delicate knives and axes, a plump and handsome appearance, tall and thin, and eye-catching.

Who is this person, though? Why did Rocco bring him in?

Forget it, she told herself, don't worry about these things.

So Bai Cen lowered his eyebrows, and was about to turn around when he was startled by the person parked next to him.

When did Lu Jingnian stand beside him, it was very scary to be so quiet.

His gaze was on her face, which was colder than usual, and seemed to contain a sneering meaning.

Bai Cen was stared at a little inexplicably.

What did she do wrong again?

Anyway, whether she did it wrong or not, she didn't really want to care.

By this time, Rocco had already begun to speak.

"After many years, Shaodong came to see you today." She changed her shoes and handed the other pair from the shoe closet to the man known as Shaodong.

I saw him take off his shoes and sit on the steps of the entrance to change his shoes.

The movements are somewhat well-behaved, like a student.

Bai Cen changed his initial impression of him, thinking that this Shaodong should be a clumsy and honest person.

"Hmm." Lu Jingnian's calm voice sounded.

"You're there too." Luo can see that Lu Jingnian is so unwilling to see Li Shaodong, and her excitement is half cool, and she just called Bai Cen like she didn't even bother to say her name when she saw Bai Cen.

"This, it's my nephew Li Shaodong, who is a talent cultivated by a key university, and he is also a talent, and now his legs and feet are a little inconvenient over the years, and he needs someone to assist in his career and take care of things in life, he is doing everything, you compare with him, just like a duck stuck in the soil."

She talked about Li Shaodong's coming and gushing.

But none of the remaining three people present made any statement.

And Li Shaodong was actually behind Luo Ke, and was praised by her like this, scratching the back of his head and laughing.

It wasn't until Rocco realized that no one was going along with her that she stabbed her nephew backwards.

And Li Shaodong only reacted at this time, and said with a stiff smile: "Yes...... Yes, cousin, long time no see, don't come unharmed. ”

"No, I don't." Lu Jingnian stayed where he was and spoke.

Li Shaodong scratched his head again in confusion, what did Lu Jingnian mean by saying don't, don't say it's been a long time, don't come to such polite words?

After he understood, he said to Lu Jingnian with a smile: "My cousin is too polite to me, since you don't like me to be polite, then I will come in directly." ”

"I don't need Li Shaodong's waste." Lu Jingnian still said in a cool voice.

Luo Ke and Li Shaodong were both shocked, their eyes widened in an instant, and they looked at what Lu Jingnian said at this end in disbelief.

Leaving such a sentence, Lu Jingnian lightly turned around and was about to leave, and then he seemed to remember something, and explained to Luo Ke again: "These things, just let Bai Cen come, in terms of people, she does it better than anyone else." ”

His uninteresting eyes glanced at Bai Cen, and finally went upstairs directly.

Li Shaodong looked at Luo Ke with a puzzled expression: "Auntie, was my cousin scolding me just now?" ”

Rocco was like eating a fly, but he still patted Li Shaodong, "What do you know!" What he just meant was that he didn't want to bend to be a subordinate, did he know? ”

"Is that so?" Li Shaodong was a little confused for a while.

"That's right!" Luo Ke glanced at Bai Cen who was standing on the side, and a light of jealousy and disdain flashed in his eyes, "That's it, yes, she is also worthy of being his personal maid, she can't be on the stage in this life, this assistant's position is dirty and tired, just like a maid, if we don't do it, we will one day ascend to the elegant hall." ”

After speaking, she glared at Bai Cen, and then took Li Shaodong away arrogantly.

Bai Cen stiffened, pursed his lips and smiled faintly, and then continued with what he was doing.

In the evening, she reluctantly entered the room.

At that time, Lu Jingnian was sitting on the bed with his back to her.

At the other end, there is an open lockbox with neatly placed banknotes.

The red pile brightened her eyes.

But she stood outside the door in trepidation, wondering why the man had put it on the bed.

"You're here."

was suddenly called by Lu Jingnian, and Bai Cen could only come in hard.

She asked, "What is this?" ”

At this time, Lu Jingnian finally turned his body around, his eyes were deep, he looked directly at Bai Cen's face, and said calmly and slowly: "I know, you have always wanted to deal with the Bai family. ”

Bai Cen's body shook, took a small step back quickly, and looked at Lu Jingnian vigilantly.

Lu Jingnian smiled indifferently and said, "You don't need to guard against me like this." ”

He leaned over, and through his mask, she saw his smile deepen, "At least we're in the same boat now, aren't you tied to me?" ”

There is uninhibited and contempt in his laughter, and more of a scheming.

What he meant, she understood, in front of this pen in front of him, was an olive branch he posed, and it was also a bait, seducing her, and at the same time making her have to choose the olive branch he threw out, with him, and at the same time help him eradicate dissidents.

Because she doesn't have a choice!

"I always thought you said you were going to let me take care of you to get rid of them."

"My words have always been true. Here is a million, Bai Cen, Bai family's daughter, how high you once stood, how much you want to stand by my side now, because I will help you get what you want, and you will not refuse me. His voice was soft, as light as a needle falling to the ground, and it tickled and intoxicated.
