As soon as Bai Ziyi asked these words, Bai He's action of drinking porridge stopped, she thought that he knew what happened yesterday, looked up at him and Fu Jinghuai, and pretended to smile easily: "I haven't been in touch, why did you suddenly ask this?" ”

"Oh, it's okay, it's just ......" Bai Ziyi didn't think about what to say for a while, he glanced at Fu Jinghuai.

Bai He stared at his expression and found that things were different from what he thought. Bai Ziyi didn't seem to deliberately ask himself this question for yesterday's incident, he seemed to have another purpose?

"You ...... Is there something you're hiding from me? Bai He's suspicious gaze swirled back and forth on Bai Ziyi and Fu Jinghuai.

Bai Ziyi immediately denied it: "What can we hide from you, I just asked casually." I'm afraid that you will have any connection with him again, and the road back is so difficult, I am afraid that you will be wronged. As he spoke, he took a small pickle and put it in a white lotus bowl.

Bai He glanced at him and simply looked at Fu Jinghuai.

Fu Jinghuai usually didn't interject when the two of them were talking, but after Bai He looked at him, he paused, he raised his eyes to look at Bai He, Bai He also looked at him, and he opened his mouth.

"It's really nothing." Bai Ziyi hurriedly spoke, "You just need to keep your distance from him in the future." ”

Bai He tilted his head and said that if you don't be verbose, I don't think it's strange, but now that you're so verbose, then I really think it's too strange.

She pounded the gruel with chopsticks, glanced at the two of them, and asked casually, "Zhu Dongfeng has committed an accident?" "Could it be that what he did to Xie Wenbin and Fang Rui was discovered? But it's not right, Fu Jinghuai knows the whole story of this matter, but he has never expressed his attitude, will it be that the matter has fermented to this extent and he chooses to stand up and explain everything? Impossible, since Fu Jinghuai chose to be silent from the beginning, he should not change his mind.

What is the reason why Bai Ziyi is spitting and spitting, and Fu Jinghuai is silent?

Facing Bai He's questioning eyes, Bai Ziyi looked at Fu Jinghuai, and after Fu Jinghuai nodded slightly, he said: "There is not enough evidence to show what Zhu Dongfeng has done, I just give you a reminder and keep your distance from him." In case he declines in the future, you will be implicated again. ”

Bai He nodded, faintly indicating that he understood.

"You're investigating him?"

"It's not us, it's the Special Search Department." Fu Jinghuai explained to her, "It's just a routine investigation." ”

"Routine investigations? What do you mean? ”

"When a business like Zhu Dongfeng reaches a certain level, the government will send people to regularly investigate him, whether it is his account or the factory under his name, to see if there are any suspected violations. Isn't there also this procedure for the fragrance of the country? ”

Bai He nodded, and said Since it's just a routine investigation, what are you going to remind me of?

Bai Ziyi said: "I just said it casually. ”

"Really?" Bai He smiled, and no longer asked the bottom line, if there were some things that Bai Ziyi would have told her directly, it was nothing more than some important secrets involved. He and Fu Jinghuai can do this, and they are also very concerned about her.

"Don't worry, I know what I have to do."

Bai Ziyi nodded, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

After breakfast, Bai Ziyi and Fu Jinghuai left, and the two of them came over just to tell her that she should keep her distance from Zhu Dongfeng.

After they left, Bai He sat on the chair for a while, and asked her if she wanted to go to the shop today, she shook her head and said no, she had nothing to do every day, and the eldest lady was more diligent than her, she just wanted to stay at home today.

Seeing this, he nodded, and packed some things that should be washed to wash.

Bai He's original intention was to relax by reading a book at home, but someone didn't want her to be so comfortable, she just took the book and sat down, the phone rang, it was the guy from the shop on Changning Street, who called and said that there was a big order, and the other party asked to talk to Bai He in person.

Bai He now reflexively feels that it is not good when she hears the words that she wants to talk to her in person, probably because she has suffered too much in this regard, and she is already a little psychologically shadowed.

So after listening to what the guy said, she first asked, "Who is the other party's surname?" ”

After asking, the guy told her, "She said her name is Zhu Jinxiu." ”

Wishing you splendid?

Bai He frowned, "Who else but her?" ”

"No, she's the only one."

Bai He asked the guy to take her to the café opposite to sit for a while, saying that he would come over immediately.

She wanted to wish Jinxiu to come to the door definitely not to talk about business with her, but to wish the old man the same words as a fart yesterday. However, Bai He's impression of Zhu Jinxiu is "the only person in the Zhu family who is most like a normal person", so since she wants to find her, then she will go. What if you can really negotiate something? Bai He can't get along with anyone, and he won't be able to get along with him.

Leaving a person at home, Bai He stopped a rickshaw and rushed to Changning Street, she saw Zhu Jinxiu sitting in the café through the glass, and Zhu Jinxiu also saw her, smiled at her and waved her hand.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Bai He sat down across from her and said politely.

Zhu Jinxiu pursed her lips and smiled lightly, saying that I should be embarrassed to say to you, I let you endure such humiliation yesterday.

Bai He asked the waiter for a glass of boiled water, and when she heard Zhu Jinxiu say this, she said indifferently: "Yesterday's incident is indeed the first time I have experienced it, but after a night of adjustment, my mind has calmed down a lot now." So please don't mention it again. ”

"I'm sorry." Zhu Jinxiu smiled awkwardly.

Bai He said: "Listen to my buddy, Miss Zhu wants to order a batch of spices from my shop?" That's why you asked me for an interview? ”

"Yes." Zhu Jinxiu nodded, and said Miss Bai, don't misunderstand that I want to see you under this pretext, I do need to order a batch of sachets for my mother, and it just so happens that I also want to have a good talk with you, and the matter is together.

Zhu Jinxiu's mother?

Bai He couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at her and asked, "What is the purpose of the sachet?" ”

Zhu Jinxiu smiled and said, "My mother's daughter is about to get married, and she is preparing some small gifts for the guests who come to the banquet, and the sachet is one of them. It's just that there is no good incense shop where she is, so she wants me to help, and I think of you at once. ”

Mother's daughter?

Bai He wants to Zhu The relationship between these people is really complicated, and she can't figure it out as an outsider.

"How many do you need?" Bai He took out a pen and paper.

Zhu Jinxiu probably said a number, seeing that Bai He frowned, she said that just in case, order more, it is better than less at that time.

Bai He asked her what kind of incense she wanted, what kind of sachet she wanted, but Zhu Jinxiu didn't know anything about it, so she only said that she would look at it and help choose, as long as it smelled and made people feel comfortable, and the appearance was very suitable for people as gifts.

Bai Lotus has taken a lot of this kind of list before, so she is familiar with it, and said that she will take her to the store to take a look at it later.

Then Bai He roughly said the price range of each sachet, so that Zhu Jinxiu would be mentally prepared later, and she would feel too expensive after calculating the total price.

However, rich people usually don't pay attention to the price, and Zhu Jinxiu only asked her to tell her how much advance she should pay first, and she didn't ask much about the rest.

Bai He really came to talk to her about business, and her meticulous appearance made Zhu Jinxiu have a new understanding of her.

When the matter of the order was almost discussed, Bai He put away the pen and paper, and said that now that the secondary matters have been discussed, let's talk about the main thing.

Zhu Jinxiu was drinking coffee when she heard the words and looked at her.

"Didn't Miss Zhu say it just now? And they didn't just come to me for it. "Bai He is not a ruthless person, since he is going to make a fortune, it is not impossible to chat with her.

Zhu Jinxiu put down the coffee cup and said with a smile: "Miss Bai's directness is still the same as always." I wanted to talk to Miss Bai about yesterday's ......"

"If Miss Zhu wants to talk about what your father said, then you don't need to say it again, because I have already said it, and it took me a night to reconcile my mentality, so I don't want to think about it again."

"Ah yes...... Zhu Jinxiu lowered his head and was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Miss Bai, then can I ask, what is going on between you and Dongfeng?" ”

Bai He looked at her, "Are you referring to our breakup?" ”

Zhu Jinxiu nodded.

"The breakup of couples in this world is nothing more than those common reasons, there is no emotion, one party has done wrong, the personality is incompatible, and the family has obstructed ......" Jiu0 took a look

"Then what is the reason for you and Dongfeng?"

"Which reason?" Bai He pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, and said lightly: "All." All the reasons came between us, so we broke up. ”

Zhu Jinxiu put her hands on her lap and squeezed them, she said indifferently: "But I can see that Dongfeng still cares about you." Yesterday he was very nervous about you. ”

Bai He didn't speak.

"Miss Bai, do you know? Dongfeng won't marry Ji Landuo. This thing is in the past. ”

"Because he can't have children?"

"Not only because of this, but also because Dongfeng doesn't have that will. He had been preparing for the marriage before, and I thought he wanted to open it, but then he told me that it was for you. Zhu Jinxiu said, "It's just that I don't know what kind of psychology he didn't put into action." But Miss Bai, I want to ask, in your opinion, is it impossible for you to do it again? ”

"Yes, no more." Bai He told her categorically. "When I'm with him, I'm always more surprised than uneventful, more frightened than surprised. And now I find that I am still alone, happier and freer. Even if I didn't have the reasons I said between him and me, we shouldn't be together again. ”

What Bai He said was not beyond Zhu Jinxiu's expectations, "Miss Bai, you won't be with him anymore, does it have something to do with his inability to have children?" ”

"Nothing to do." Bai He said that I didn't know about it when I made up my mind.

Zhu Jinxiu nodded, and said with a helpless smile: "But now the entire Jinzhou City knows about it." "Maybe in a little while, it will get out there.

"Miss Bai, you are a smart person, I think yesterday you also saw that our family is different from ordinary people. The reason why I haven't left the cabinet so far is because I can't go, and once I'm gone, they won't be there. I hope that each of them can find a woman they like to start a family, and I will not be in the mood to worry about my own affairs until their lifelong affairs are resolved. Of course, it doesn't matter if I marry someone or not, after all, I'm in my fifties. Zhu Jinxiu touched her face as she spoke, she was actually very well maintained, and she couldn't tell her actual age at all.

"Among them, the one I am most worried about is the east wind. He's not the least reassuring, but he's standing too tall now. Zhu Jinxiu sighed, "I want to find someone for Dongfeng who can contain him, someone who can make him willing to be watched and controlled." ”

Bai He said: "You can look for it, you will always find it." ”

Bai He didn't answer, and Zhu Jinxiu could only smile helplessly, "Dongfeng is actually a very stubborn person in his bones, and almost no one can change what he believes." Since he has fallen in love with you, he will no longer accept others. I'm still sure of that. ”

Bai He lowered her eyes, and after a moment of silence, she asked, "Miss Zhu, do you know what was the most fundamental reason that prompted me to break up with him?" ”

Zhu Jinxiu shook his head. She asked Zhu Dongfeng several times, but Zhu Dongfeng avoided talking about it.

"It was my mother's death." Bai He said calmly.

Zhu Jinxiu's pupils dilated instantly, and her brows furrowed tightly.

"He has my mother's blood on his hands, what would you do if you replaced me with Miss Zhu? Can you still be with him as if nothing happened? I don't think anyone can do it. "Bai He said that I was heartbroken and crazy because I lost my mother, and he hid it from me for three years, and I can't stand it just when I think of him watching me cry and not saying a word.

"But I can't kill him to avenge my mother. I can only cut it all off. ”

"This ......" Zhu Jinxiu didn't expect the truth of the matter to be this, she opened her mouth, "Dongfeng, Dongfeng, he killed your mother?" ”

Bai He even smiled: "This is the first time I have told others about this matter, and even my family I have never said it." If it weren't for Miss Zhu's illusions about me and him, I wouldn't have let you know. Now do you believe what I say? He and I really couldn't do it anymore. ”

Zhu Jinxiu had nothing to say, she thought that if what Bai He said was true, then she really couldn't force people to make it difficult.

After that, Bai He cleaned up her mood and took Zhu Jinxiu to the store to choose spices and sachet patterns, signed the list, and after a while, Zhu Jinxiu left, she walked quickly, as if she was in a hurry to meet someone.

Bai He thought that she was going to find Zhu Dongfeng nine times out of ten to ask what was going on.

She was right by her.

Zhu Jinxiu came to the Zhu Mansion, Zhu Dongfeng was still busy in the upstairs study, and she didn't let Anan and Zhu Xing report it, so she went upstairs with a straight face.

Anan and Zhu Xing didn't know what was going on, and looked at each other blankly.

When she arrived at the study, Zhu Jinxiu pushed the door directly in, and Zhu Dongfeng looked up and saw that it was her and said, "Who did I have the courage to break into my study at that time." ”

"Yes, you are the most daring, and no one else has the guts." Zhu Jinxiu closed the door with her backhand and said angrily, seeing that Zhu Dongfeng was still writing with her head down, she stepped forward and snatched his pen, "Don't write!" I have something to ask you! ”

Zhu Dongfeng said helplessly: "If you have anything to ask, I will answer you while writing, and both are correct." ”

"No! You have to take me seriously! Zhu Jinxiu put the pen aside and closed his papers.

Zhu Dongfeng sighed, and he didn't know which one she came from suddenly, so he had to lean back and listen to what she was going to ask.

"Okay, you ask."

Zhu Jinxiu was just about to speak, but Zhu Dongfeng suddenly frowned again: "Are you spraying too much perfume?" ”

"It's not that I wear too much perfume, I just came out of the perfume place."

Just got out of the perfume shop?

Zhu Dongfeng looked at her, and Zhu Jinxiu said, "Can you guess where I came from?" ”

“…… Are you looking for the white lotus? "I wish Dongfeng a slight movement of his eyebrows.

Zhu Jinxiu nodded and said, "Yes, I'm going to find her." Talked to her. ”

"What are you going to do with her?" Zhu Dongfeng had a lot of complaints about her actions, "With what happened yesterday, she must be annoyed when she sees the people of the Zhu family now." Why do you mess with her again? ”

"Did I mess with her?" Zhu Jinxiu thought it was funny, so she laughed twice as if she had heard a big joke, "It's not me who provokes her, it's you who provoke her!" ”

Zhu Dongfeng shook his head and asked what did you talk about with her?

"Talk about the reasons for your breakup and the possibility of getting back together." Zhu Jinxiu lowered her eyes and stared at him.

"The result?"

"It turned out that after she told me the root cause of your breakup, I also thought that you would no longer be possible!"

Zhu Dongfeng looked at her: "She said everything?" ”

Zhu Jinxiu hugged her arms, "You killed her mother." ”

"It was an accident."

"You can't try to end this matter with an accident, whether it's an accident or something else, you killed Bai He's mother." Zhu Jinxiu was very dissatisfied with his attitude, "I actually ran over to help you rebuild the old good, I'm really stupid." ”

Zhu Dongfeng said that I don't deny your judgment of yourself, you at least came to ask my opinion before you went.

Zhu Jinxiu glared at him: "I have asked you many times what was the reason for Bai He to break up with you, but you still refused to tell me!" ”

"Now you know why I won't tell you?"

"Because you have a weak heart!" Zhu Jinxiu reprimanded loudly.

Zhu Dongfeng nodded and admitted calmly: "Yes, it's because I have a weak heart." ”

"How could you do such a thing?" Zhu Jinxiu asked in disbelief.

Zhu Dongfeng held his forehead and didn't speak, and Zhu Jinxiu paced back and forth in the study to accuse him of what he did, which showed that she was really shocked.

"How can you hide her for three years? Don't you feel guilty when you look at her? ”

"I'm not hiding it, I just haven't found a suitable time to talk to her." And the more he faced Bai He later, the more difficult it was for him to speak, because he knew very well what the results would be after telling the truth.

Zhu Jinxiu looked at him and ruthlessly spit out two words: "Sophistry." ”
