Provoking a ghost: This ghost husband is a bit spoiled
Chapter 117 Seeds of Doubt
Hearing such unkind words from the bad friend, Tang Shaojie gasped heavily, with a sad and indignant expression on his face.
"You're too impolite," he said dissatisfied with a look of grievance on his face, "I was just joking, and I didn't scare your little beauty, you are too harsh."
Naturally, however, neither of them paid him any attention.Gu Le shook his head and turned to leave, but was stopped by Tang Shaojie.
"Hey, where are you going?"
Gu Le stopped walking outside, showing a puzzled expression: "Of course I went home, what's wrong?"
Tang Shaojie glanced speechlessly at Bai Xiuhan who was paralyzed on the sofa, and then at Gu Le who was puzzled, and said helplessly: "What's the matter, what are you talking about, we know that you are under house arrest in Bai's house, and we have been worried for a long time. That place is very dangerous now, you should not go back."
Gu Le shook his head: "That can't be done. If I don't go back, I will definitely have doubts. Now they are temporarily caught up in more important things, and I have to go back before they come back."
Tang Shaojie was a little impatient, like Bai Xiuhan behind him winking frequently.
Bai Xiuhan finally stood up slowly, and nodded towards this side: "I'll take you back."
Tang Shaojie was startled, looked at the friend in front of him in disbelief, and exclaimed: "Hey, hey, aren't you, you were the one who was so scared back then, and now you're acting like you're planning to send her to that hell Wouldn't your wolf heart ache if you went to face the pile of wolves, tigers and leopards in the devil's lair?"
Seeing him clutching his chest with a heartbroken look, Gu Le shook his head, opened the door and left with a gesture of "go out first".Bai Xiuhan is a smart person, how could he not know how to treat himself is the safest and most appropriate way.
After getting in the car, I don't know why the atmosphere between the two of them seems to be extremely silent today, and no one has the intention to speak actively.Gu Le glanced at Bai Xiuhan, who was driving seriously, from the corner of his eye. The resolute outline seemed to be soft in the warm yellow light.
The phone in his hand vibrated a few times, and Gu Le quickly looked down, missing the faint smile on the corner of Bai Xiuhan's mouth.
"Hello."
Because of the hasty cover-up just now, Gu Le didn't see the name displayed on the phone clearly. As soon as he connected, he heard a cold voice over there: "Miss Gu, it's not safe for you to be outside alone, or Go home early."
Gu Le frowned, held the phone to his ear and looked at it, and saw that it was indeed the call from the housekeeper of the Bai family.
"I see, I just went out for a turn and now I'm going back."
There seemed to be a rustling sound over there, and then the phone was transferred to another person.
"Lele, it's okay to go out to relax, but you have to bring bodyguards. It's so chaotic outside now. A few days ago, I saw news that a little girl like you was stabbed to death in the street. You are ours. The daughter-in-law of the Bai family, of course, should pay attention to safety."
It was a gentle female voice who spoke. Gu Le had heard this person's voice from the Bai family. She was the daughter of Mr. Bai's old man, and she was very favored.
Due to the small age gap, Gu Le was embarrassed to call her seniority, so she had to say in a heavy tone: "Understood sister, I used to be wild, and I won't let my family worry about it next time."
The man let out a "hey" and asked casually, "Did a friend send you home?"
Gu Le's heart skipped a beat, he glanced at Bai Xiuhan at the side, and said Nuo Nuo: "Yes, a friend of mine sent his housekeeper to deliver it, you don't have to worry about it."
"Ah, that's it." The tone over there was obviously a little more relaxed, "Then be careful on the road."
Gu Le nodded repeatedly, and after saying a few words over there, hung up the phone.
A certain housekeeper turned his head and stared at Gu Le meaningfully, making him a little hairy.Gu Le swallowed subconsciously, and showed an embarrassing smile: "Isn't there... There is no other reason."
Bai Xiuhan sighed: "That's right, anyway, they don't consider me a family member anymore."
Hearing that most of his tone was lonely, Gu Le was nervous, so he comforted him first: "Don't say that, everyone is trying their best to help you find a way to bring your soul back to life, and they must be thinking about you in their hearts." of."
However, these words of consolation did not have any real effect, Bai Xiuhan said lightly: "It's just something they want from me, if the huge benefits I can bring are less than the price they ask for when they resurrect me, you Do you think I'm still valuable?"
Gu Le has seen many disputes among wealthy families, so he naturally understands the meaning of Bai Xiuhan's words.Thinking of what the lady from the Bai family said just now, Gu Le felt a little worried.
"I'm being watched by them now, once they find you, is it okay?"
She subconsciously felt that Xiuhan Bai was avoiding the Bai family and had no intention of returning to the Bai family.
Bai Xiuhan shook his head: "Aren't they the most important ones, now I just need to keep my brother in name from it."
"Bai Jinshi?" Gu Le blurted out in surprise, with doubts in his eyes, "He is just an illegitimate child who is not valued, there is nothing to worry about."
Bai Xiuhan didn't answer him, but just smiled lightly and shook his head slowly.
Gu Le didn't know why, but suddenly seemed to think of something, and opened his eyes wide with enlightenment.
It turns out that an outsider like her subconsciously feels that Bai Jinshi's status is embarrassing, and he will definitely be grateful for the arrangement of the Bai family and obediently obey their arrangement, but a person as rigorous and considerate as Bai Jinshi, to put it bluntly, is meticulous , even without omission, how can you willingly obey the mercy of others?
That's right, how could such a scheming person be willing to be someone else's puppet?
Thinking of the part of his heart that was captured by him, Gu Le couldn't help but his heart beat for a moment, and he said to himself that although Qu Yan's head is a little hard to use, but fortunately, she didn't fancy this nominal fiancé, otherwise he might be killed. There is not even a bone left.
Gu Le was thinking deeply, but she didn't realize that she had reached the intersection of Bai's house, so she hurriedly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Bai Xiuhan heard the car on the side of the road, and looked at her puzzled.
Gu Le bit the bullet and said: "Just stop here, and then I will go back by myself."
"You were brought back by your friend's butler," Bai Xiuhan said in a cool tone, "How can a butler disobey the master's order, leaving the honored guest alone on the way."
Gu Le: "..."
However, Bai Xiuhan still couldn't appear in front of the Bai family. He didn't know what method he used to stick a talisman on his face, and his appearance and temperament changed dramatically in an instant.
Gu Le has seen Bai Xiuhan's face-changing technique before, and he is not particularly surprised when he sees it now. Instead, he carefully compared it with the original body, and his appearance has dropped by at least 50%. If you throw it into the crowd, you won't be able to find it. However, Bai Xiuhan was not dissatisfied, and parked the car at the gate of the main house of the Bai family.
After getting out of the car, someone hurried over to meet him. Gu Le took a look, but it wasn't the housekeeper.She wondered if something happened in the old house, or it might have something to do with the unseal of Bai Xiuhan's coffin.
Gu Le asked softly: "What monsters and ghosts are sealed in your coffin?"
Bai Xiuhan looked at him in surprise, and shook his head: "You think I want to go back and have a look after I escaped."
Gu Le wanted to think about seeing himself in the coffin one day, with the same face as that one, and couldn't help showing a strange expression.
"Don't move." Just as Gu Le was about to open the car door and go out, he heard a soft sound beside him.
Bai Xiuhan got up and slumped out of the car door, and helped Gu Le open the co-pilot's door. His respectful appearance really reminded him of a private car driver.
Gu Le nodded to him reservedly, and said softly "goodbye" when he missed his body, but did not ignore Bai Xiuhan's soft sentence "Hold on for two more days."
Gu Le's body stiffened suddenly, the corners of his mouth hooked unconsciously, he straightened his body and strode into the room.
……
There were very few people in the room, and it seemed that even Aunt Zhou, the busy cook, was gone, but the center was filled with all kinds of dishes.
Gu Le happened to be a little hungry, so he picked up chopsticks and ate with the servant's service.
Seeing her calm appearance, the people standing beside her couldn't help showing some doubts in their eyes.
Shouldn't this person be very nervous and scared? How come he still sits down to eat as motionless as a mountain? Is this the weak Miss Gu family that the butler said he could easily bully?
He looked at it for so long that his eyes started to sore, and he saw that Gu Le was full and put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand.
Gu Le wiped his mouth with a tissue, with a calm expression on his face: "Today's dishes are a bit salty... Where's Aunt Zhou?"
The man quickly restrained his scrutiny, and replied respectfully: "Aunt Zhou's family had some accidents, and she went back to take care of her son."
Gu Le's heart skipped a beat. Aunt Zhou's son has now entered a university, which is also a prestigious university in City A. These are the clichés that Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhou used to talk about. There should be no mistakes. right.
So they sent Aunt Zhou away, or separated Aunt Zhou and themselves, did they have any deep meaning?
Although his heart was already turbulent, Gu Le did not show any worry on his face.She just raised her brows tightly, and played the role of a willful and unruly young lady perfectly.
"When will she come back? I'm not used to the cook in this family."
The man obviously didn't expect such difficulties, wiped his sweat secretly, and said slowly: "It's only a few days, I will probably come back after finishing the matter."
Gu Le had the bottom line in his mind, and guessed that it might be the eyeliner at home who heard the conversation between himself and Aunt Zhou, coupled with the strange things that happened in the past few days, they associated the two aspects together, and then isolated her go out.
If her guess is correct, Aunt Zhou should be in the old house now, accepting various interrogations.But Gu Le's shell is not a good character to be suspected, no matter in terms of biographical information or personality, so even if he interrogates him carefully, he can't find any sense of disobedience or suspicion, so Gu Le is not worried at all.
"You're too impolite," he said dissatisfied with a look of grievance on his face, "I was just joking, and I didn't scare your little beauty, you are too harsh."
Naturally, however, neither of them paid him any attention.Gu Le shook his head and turned to leave, but was stopped by Tang Shaojie.
"Hey, where are you going?"
