While eating, Lin Sheng suddenly took out a bottle of white wine from the room and came to the dining table. Lin Xiaozhi was slightly taken aback, looked at Lin Sheng full of doubts and asked, "Dad, when did you buy the wine? Why don't you know?"

Lin Sheng raised his eyebrows, "What? Do I need to tell you when I buy something? It's not for you to drink, it's specially reserved for Lang Qi."

"Come on, Lang Qi, it's rare for us to get together today, how about having a drink with me?"

When Lin Xiaozhu heard this sentence, she blinked, "Dad, Lang Qi has never drank baijiu, I remember that he didn't drink baijiu before, when did he fall in love with it?"

Lin Sheng smiled slightly, "I went to a neighbor's house to drink some a few times ago, and it felt good, so I bought a bottle myself, just to have a drink with Lang Qi when he comes."

"Since you don't like to drink liquor, forget it, it's okay, I'll drink some myself."

The corners of Lang Qi's mouth rose slightly, and he pulled a gentle smile, "How come? Since my uncle likes it, it means that this wine must be delicious. It's okay to influence today, it's okay, in case I I like it too."

Then Lang Qi took the wine bottle, poured a glass for Lin Sheng, poured another glass for himself, and looked at Lin Xiaozhi, "Brother, why don't you have some too?"

Lin Xiaozhi shook his head again and again, "I'd better forget it, I can't enjoy it, you should drink it happily, I can't do anything after drinking it."

Lin Xiaozhu said maliciously: "Brother, it's rare for our family to get together. You don't want to spoil everyone's interest, do you? Lang Qi has never drank before, and he is willing to drink with Dad. What's wrong with you?"

"Don't worry, you don't need to do anything for a while, just drink with Dad, and I will do the rest."

Lin Xiaozhi looked at Lin Xiaozhu reproachfully, how could he not know what was going on in her mind, he finally shook his head helplessly, and poured himself a glass too.

The atmosphere during the meal was very good. Perhaps for Lin Sheng and Lin Xiaozhi, it was just happier than usual because of the arrival of Lin Xiaozhu and Lang Qi.

But for Lin Xiaozhu and Lang Qi, it was rare to relax their bodies and minds. Without the tension at home, they liked this place more and more.

After drinking and eating, Lin Sheng stood up from the dining table. At this time, his face was flushed, and it was obvious that he had already eaten, "Xiaozhu, I will leave the rest to you. I am going to sleep."

Lin Xiaozhu frowned slightly, and said worriedly: "Dad, are you okay? Is it okay? If not, shall I make you some tea? It's good to sober up."

Lin Sheng curled his lips, "I just drank a little more wine, there's no need, I'll be fine as soon as I wake up."

Lin Xiaozhu nodded, "Okay, you go to rest first, I'll clean it up."

Lang Qi said to Lin Sheng: "Uncle, please slow down, go in near me."

Then Lang Qi supported Lin Sheng and walked into the room. Only Lin Xiaozhu and Lin Xiaozhi were left on the dining table, "Xiaozhu, brother is also feeling a little uncomfortable, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Xiaozhu interrupted: "Okay, I see, you go to bed too, why do you need such a little work. Go quickly."

Then Lin Xiaozhi also walked into the room. Lin Xiaozhu took the things off the dining table, wiped the table, and washed the dishes before Lang Qi came out of Lin Sheng's room.

Lin Xiaozhu asked suspiciously, "Why did it take so long to come out? Did my dad say anything to you?"

With a smile on the corner of Lang Qi's mouth, he looked at Lin Xiaozhu mysteriously, "Don't worry about it, this is a conversation between men, you don't need to know."

Lin Xiaozhu gave Lang Qi a white look, "Cut, I don't need to guess to know what you and my dad are talking about. It's nothing more than what I handed over my daughter to you. You must not let her be wronged."

"And you must have made a promise, plus an oath, isn't that what it is? It has long been common."

Lang Qi was taken aback for a moment, but Lin Xiaozhu had guessed everything, "You are really smart, have you finished cleaning up? Do you want me to help?"

Lin Xiaozhu nodded, his expression suddenly became serious, and he said to Lang Qi: "Everything is packed, come with me, don't you want to know what happened today?"

After she finished speaking, she walked into the courtyard. Lang Qi followed Lin Xiaozhu with a serious face without saying anything.

Lin Xiaozhu looked up at the stars all over the sky, breathed the extremely fresh air, and really wanted to live here forever, but she knew very well that there would be absolutely no such opportunity until the matter was settled.

Even if she didn't take the initiative to find Zhao Yanjing and Jiang Yiyun, they would come to her sooner or later, no matter when it came, they were unavoidable.

"Lang Qi, look, the sky is full of stars. You can never see this kind of scene in the city." Lin Xiaozhu said happily pointing to the sky.

Lang Qi nodded, the corners of his lips slightly curved, outlining a look of yearning, "Yes, the pollution in the city is serious, it's hard to see such a sky anymore."

"It is only in this kind of place where there is no competition with the world and the economy is backward, can we see such a scene. It is really rare to see. Now I finally know why my uncle and elder brother like to live here."

"If it were me, I would definitely be unable to extricate myself."

Lin Xiaozhu smiled bitterly, "Hehe, yes, we really don't want to leave, but our identities won't allow us to do that. If we don't take the initiative to cause trouble, the other party will come to us."

"Today, Zhao Yanjing brought a group of people who appeared at your funeral that day, together with Jiang Yiyun's new love, to arrest me."

"Fortunately, there was a dispute between them. Otherwise, no matter which side caught me, I would not end well. I just went out to buy some necessities. I really don't know. Next we How can I do."

Lang Qi took Lin Xiaozhu's hand and came to the big rocks placed in the yard. At this time, they are used for enjoying the shade during the day. At night, sitting here and watching the stars all over the sky has a special flavor.

He held Lin Xiaozhu tightly in his arms, looked at the vast sky, and sighed softly, "Oh! I know these things are very unfair to you."

"If you hadn't been with me, you wouldn't have suffered these things for no reason. If I hadn't forced you to marry me, I wouldn't be in this situation today."

"In the end, I was the one who killed you, but it's too late to regret it now. In the eyes of outsiders, I am a dead person now, but they still refuse to let you go."

"So, there are some things in this world that cannot be solved by escaping, but I promise you that I will never let this kind of thing happen again. I will do my best to protect you."

"But sometimes I feel powerless, because I can't be by your side all the time. In the final analysis, I still need to solve the root cause of everything."

"If not, we don't want to have a peaceful day. Although it is very comfortable here, you should be very clear in your heart, right? This place does not belong to people like us."

"It is more suitable for people like uncle and elder brother to live here. It is a kind of protection for them, but it is just a constraint for us."

"I know your character best. Are you willing to live in this little-known mountain village for the rest of your life? Obviously you don't want to."

"So, it's not an option to hide all the time. What should be faced is still to be faced."

Lin Xiaozhu leaned against Lang Qi's shoulder and nodded silently, "Yes, I am really unwilling to be framed like this."

"We have lost so many people around us. I didn't expect that in the end, even my father and elder brother would not be able to protect me. Other people's today is my father's tomorrow."

"The more this is the case, the more we can't sit still and wait for death. There is only one dead end, and nothing lucky will happen."

Lang Qi frowned slightly, his eyes were full of annoyance, "Yeah, I'm still very guilty about my mother's death, if I could forgive her earlier, maybe she wouldn't do anything to help me. Go to provoke Zhao Yanjing."

"If I had told her the truth earlier, maybe she would still be able to live safely by Zhao Yanjing's side, at least her life would still be there. I really don't know what it's like in my heart now."

Lin Xiaozhu raised his head from Lang Qi's shoulder, looked straight into Lang Qi's eyes, and said, "Lang Qi, it's not your fault at all, only Zhao Yanjing is to blame."

"Don't take all the faults on yourself. Auntie is your mother after all. If it were me, maybe I would do the same."

"No matter how many things she did that were harmful to us in the past, you are her son after all, how could she have the heart to watch you live in hiding."

"You can hide from Zhao Yanjing and Jiang Yiyun about your fraudulent death, but you can never hide it from her. Do you remember what she said when she came to our house last?"

"Obviously she already knew it was you the day she was at Zhao Yanjing's villa."

"And you said that she can live peacefully by Zhao Yanjing's side. It's not realistic. She showed me the wounds on her body. Such a life will collapse sooner or later."

"Although it is not very sure whether it is because of helping us steal the evidence of the cause of uncle's death, but one thing I can confirm is that this will definitely not be an accident."

"If this kind of life was really done to help us, there must be some clues left behind. I don't believe that my aunt would escape from Zhao Yanjing's side when she found nothing."

Lang Qi nodded thoughtfully, "I know this very well, you and I think the same way, if that's the case, why don't we go back tomorrow, how about it?"
