Shenhao starts from system downtime

Chapter 1432 Little Things

In the middle of the night, Lin Qian quietly returned to the bungalow in Arnott's Manor in the car of Wang Hu and the others.

For tonight's matter, Lin Qian and Anatole made an agreement that no one would say anything.

At the same time, before parting, the two had agreed on the same caliber. If someone asked about what happened tonight, the answer of both of them would be: they encountered a gang fight by chance, and they were just passing by.

As for the bodyguards who were shot, they can attribute the reason to the fact that they clashed with each other while protecting them and retreating, and were shot and injured.

After the incident happened, Anatoly rushed to the airport overnight, and before the Paris police could react, he left Paris by plane, while Lin Qian returned directly to the Arnott estate.

Lin Qian had already asked Wang Hu and others to clean up the traces on the scene, and the traces on the Internet would naturally not leave any clues after Gaia took action, so as long as Lin Qian and Anatoli denied it, then even if it was The Paris police suspected them. Without enough evidence, the Paris police did not dare to act rashly based on Lin Qian's relationship with the Arnott family.

It was for this reason that Lin Qian returned to Arnott's manor in such a grand manner.

……

Pushing open the door of the bungalow villa, the living room is lit with warm lights.

Audrey was wearing a beige cashmere blanket, and she was sitting on the sofa watching TV at the moment. When she heard the door open, she immediately stood up from the sofa, and then greeted Lin Qian.

"came back?"

When Audrey saw Lin Qian coming back, a bright smile appeared on her face, but when she came to Lin Qian and saw Lin Qian's wet clothes, she froze for a moment, and then her eyes revealed A look of concern: "Why are you in such a mess? Did something happen?"

"Something happened on the way."

"Don't worry, it's all over."

After Lin Qian finished changing his slippers, he didn't go straight into the house. Instead, he stood at the door, took off all his clothes, and then threw them outside the house. In the end, only a pair of underwear was left on his body.

"Is it really just a small thing?"

"Do you need me to talk to Grandpa?"

Audrey looked at Lin Qian carefully twice. After seeing that there was no sign of injury on Lin Qian, she was slightly relieved, and then asked Lin Qian again.

"Need not."

"It's really a small thing."

"I'm going to the bathroom to take a shower, and if you're sleepy, go to bed first."

If Lin Qian told Audrey what happened tonight, Audrey would definitely be frightened by it, and she would not be able to sleep well tonight, so Lin Qian chose to hide this matter temporarily, let's see What will happen tomorrow, and then choose whether to tell Audrey.

"OK then."

"Go and wash, I'll wait for you in the bedroom."

Seeing that Lin Qian didn't want to say more, Audrey didn't ask any more questions.

Lin Qian nodded slightly, then walked straight to the bathroom.

……

Half an hour later, it was already midnight.

Lin Qian returned to the bedroom after taking a shower. As expected, Audrey hadn't slept, and was reading Agatha's novel with great interest.

"Are you tired?"

Lin Qian lifted the quilt, sat on the bed, and asked Audrey softly.

"Thanks to someone these days, I go to bed very late every day, so I'm not very sleepy."

Audrey folded the novel in her hand and put it on the bedside, and then responded with a slightly reproachful tone.

"Then shall we go to bed early tonight?"

Lin Qian naturally stretched out his hand to hold Audrey in his arms, then said with a smile.

"still?"

"still."

"No tricks?"

"Don't play tricks."

Audrey showed some doubts at first, but after confirming it one after another, she believed Lin Qian's words a little bit.

The two hugged each other quietly for about tens of seconds, neither of them spoke.

Audrey could feel that Lin Qian must have encountered something tonight, because she could see the tiredness on Lin Qian's brows.

In fact, Lin Qian was indeed a little tired.

This kind of exhaustion is not physical exhaustion in the conventional sense, but mental exhaustion. Although Lin Qian is not used to this kind of bloody scene, it is after all hundreds of lives, and Lin Qian is still far away. It's not at the level where Ares regards life as trivial, so Lin Qian will naturally have some big mood swings.

But the moment Lin Qian held Audrey's soft body in his arms, Lin Qian's restless heart naturally calmed down.

"This morning..."

"August said something to me, and I think he made sense."

After the two of them hugged quietly for dozens of seconds, Lin Qian suddenly said this.

"August?"

"What did he tell you?"

Audrey was a little surprised when she heard that.

"Um……"

"It's just some very real issues."

Facing Audrey's question, Lin Qian replied somewhat vaguely.

"Actually, even if you don't tell me, I can guess..."

Audrey was silent for a while, then said softly.

"Audrey, help me make an appointment with your grandpa tomorrow. Let's have dinner together tonight, just like how your grandpa invited me when I came here. By the way, invite all the third-generation members of your Arnott family. I have something to announce to everyone."

Lin Qian said this to Audrey.

After August said those words this morning, Lin Qian thought about what August said very seriously.

First of all, not getting married is the premise, and this will not change at any time.

There is a saying that does not worry about the few but the unevenness. If Audrey suddenly becomes the main palace when the vast majority of people are unknown, it will undoubtedly make Lin Qian's many women sad.

However, it is also impossible for Lin Qian to make Audrey wronged and let her live in other people's pointing and gossip all her life, so the problem Lin Qian is facing this morning is how to get married without getting married. Let Audrey get the respect and status he deserves in the family.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lin Qian already had a solution in his mind.

"what are you going to do?"

After hearing Lin Qian's request, Audrey asked with some puzzlement.

"Just do as I ask you."

"You will know the details tomorrow."

Lin Qian stroked Audrey's long, smooth hair and said softly.

"Mysterious..."

"Sister Xiaoman is right, you are really a natural security guard."

Audrey pursed her lips slightly and whispered.

"Depend on!"

"Li Xiaoman actually talked about me behind my back!"

"Annual leave minus one!"

When Lin Qian heard Audrey's muttering, the corners of his mouth twitched, and then he cursed twice inwardly.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's sleep..."

"Good night~"
