Who Said I Was a Coquettish Bitch

When Xiao Lin hugged him, Bai Chen was in a daze. Naturally, he would not pretend to be affectionate and think that Xiao Lin had something in mind for him, but he didn't know what he wanted.When he saw the wheelchair, he understood it—it was too troublesome to help him around, so he might as well just stuff it into the wheelchair with his hands.

Simple, rude and effective, this is Xiao Lin's style.

Bai Chen was sitting in a wheelchair, covering the aching wound on his head, looking at Xiao Lin's tall shadow in the sun pushing the wheelchair behind him, feeling quite unreal.

It was Xiao Lin who sat in the wheelchair before, and he was the one who pushed the wheelchair.

But now he changed his position. He looked like he was dying and sat in a wheelchair, but Xiao Lin walked steadily. He no longer needed a wheelchair, and even the crutch had withdrawn from the stage of history.

It is estimated that it will not be long before this iceberg can turn back into the free and easy Young Master Xiao in fresh clothes and angry horses.

And he slowly gained a foothold in Dali Temple. Luo Lanye promised him that he could continue to participate in the investigation of the poisoning case in the Shangshu Mansion. As long as he worked hard, he believed that he could successfully change jobs.

Both he and Xiao Lin are on the established track to achieve their goals, which is good.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Young Master Xiao." Bai Chen apologized, "Actually, it's fine to let Bing'er come to pick you up, and it saves you from running so far."

"Bing'er was called by Mo'er to help, and I happened to be there, so I came here."

Xiao Lin said again: "It's okay, don't be so polite."

Bai Chen smiled and said, "Okay."

Xiao Lin pushed the wheelchair and walked steadily, but Bai Chen, who was sitting in the wheelchair, felt helpless, unable to even walk, which was really a terrible thing.

At this moment, he realized Xiao Lin's painful mood before.

He speculated that he had a mild concussion and would be fine with a few days of rest.

But before Xiao Lin injured his leg, he thought that he could only sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, unable to stand up again. How far should the pain and despair in his heart go?

"How did you get hurt today?" Xiao Rin asked, "Just now I was too hasty to ask Mr. Luo about the cause and effect."

Thinking of what happened to the Jiang family, Bai Chen couldn't help but sighed slightly.

"If you're too tired, don't talk about it, go back to your room and rest first." Xiao Lin was afraid that he wouldn't feel well, so he quickly added a sentence.

"It's not because I'm tired. I'll tell you in detail when I get back to the Wind and Rain Building." This case touched Bai Chen deeply, and it involved high-ranking officials who would definitely spread the word in the court. Discuss with Xiao Lin.

……

Back to Fengyu Building, Binger has not come back yet.

"I'll take you back to your room." Xiao Lin said, "Although there is no serious problem, it is better to rest in bed."

"I haven't told you the case yet."

"It's the same if you go to the room to talk." After finishing speaking, Xiao Lin seemed to realize something, and touched his nose, "If it's not convenient, forget it today, my curiosity is actually not that serious."

"It's nothing inconvenient." There is nothing wrong with being open-minded.

Xiao Lin was startled: "Okay, then go upstairs first."

After finishing speaking, he made another gesture, ready to lift Bai Chen out of the wheelchair.

"Young Master Xiao, wait a minute." Bai Chen hurriedly stopped him, and hugged him up at every turn. He couldn't bear it, "Help me, I'll just walk by myself."

"Okay." Xiao Lin didn't force himself, and helped Bai Chen up from the chair.

As soon as Bai Chen got up, he felt the world spinning, as if he had stepped on cotton under his feet.

"I'm afraid you can't walk now." Xiao Lin thought that Bai Chen might not want to be hugged, so he said, "Then shall I carry you up?"

Bai Chen thought for a while, but he didn't feel so ashamed, so he nodded, "Then I'll trouble you."

Xiao Lin's legs and feet were just right, but it didn't affect him, and he easily lifted Bai Chen on his back.

Hmm... This is the first time Bai Chen has been carried by someone since he was an adult, and it feels very delicate.

Xiao Lin ordered: "Ruyi, you go upstairs first, open the door of Mr. Bai's bedroom, and spread out the quilt."

"Yes."

Ruyi hurriedly opened the door in the hall, and ran upstairs again.

Xiao Lin carried Bai Chen out of the living room, put his arms around his thigh and pulled him up, so that he could stay more stable on his back.

Bai Chen stiffened his body to avoid too much physical contact with Xiao Lin.

But Xiao Lin's cold scent of incense still drilled into his nose.

Fortunately, the journey was not long, otherwise Bai Chen would have been exhausted by his petrified posture.

Ruyi had already come in and made the bed, Xiao Lin directly put Bai Chen on the bed, and Ruyi stepped forward to raise the pillow so that it was easier for Bai Chen to lean on.

"Thank you." Bai Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Xiao Lin, "Isn't it heavy on your back?"

Xiao Lin shook his head without changing his expression, "When I was practicing martial arts, there were days when I ran with a two-hundred-jin sandbag on my back."

Bai Chen: ...

He couldn't take it anymore.

Fortunately, Xiao Lin didn't need him to answer the conversation. After he ordered Ruyi to pour tea, he found a stool and sat down.

Bai Chen suddenly remembered that this was the first time Xiao Lin stepped into this room after their "bridal night".

Compared to Hengmei Leng being a nominal "husband and wife" and then being trapped here until his death, he is still very glad that he took the initiative to choose to break the ice with Xiao Lin and be friends to solve this predicament together.

Half lying on the warm and comfortable bed was much more comfortable than sitting on the cold chair in the downstairs hall, Bai Chen said, "By the way, let me tell you about the case."

Bai Chen told Xiao Lin everything that happened in Jiang's house, including how he was injured.

"Don't try too hard to investigate the case." Xiao Lin said slowly after listening, "You are lucky this time, if you are so reckless next time, it might be life-threatening."

Knowing that Xiao Rin regarded him as a friend, Bai Chen cared about his safety first instead of asking about the case, so he joked, "You are really the same as Mr. Luo, if you don't say anything else, teach me a lesson first."

"This is not to teach you a lesson." Xiao Lin said, "It's just that your way of acting is a bit reckless."

After finishing speaking, he paused and said: "In this way, Mr. Luo is also quite concerned about you as a subordinate."

"Yes." Bai Chen said, "Lord Luo has no airs of being a high-ranking official. When he was in the Yamen, he did many things by himself. He is a very good boss."

Xiao Lin raised his eyebrows, but didn't comment on this, and talked about the case instead, "I didn't expect that there would be so much disturbance in Jiang Shangshu's house. He has always been serious and upright in the court. The image of harmony."

"This is just the image he shows in front of outsiders." Bai Chen remembered a new vocabulary he had heard in his previous life, character design.What Jiang Shangshu made for himself is a person who loves his wife and son, and has a harmonious family.

Xiao Lin was thoughtful, "That's right, speaking of it, the most innocent person in this matter is Young Master Jiang. The right and wrong grievances and grievances in the rear house are involved in his head."

"What about the third lady, Ling Shuang?" Bai Chen suddenly wanted to hear Xiao Lin's evaluation of the murder suspect.

Xiao Lin said: "The third lady is pitiful, sad, but also hateful."

"It's a pity that she loves a man deeply but can't fully possess his love. It's a pity that she swallowed her humiliation when she was bullied in the backyard for this love." Bai Chen was a little surprised that Xiao Lin agreed with him, "I also hate her for involving innocent people. Jiang Haochen."

"In the final analysis, Jiang Shangshu's problem is the biggest." Xiao Lin said, "Enjoying the blessings of Qi people but not knowing how to make the back house harmonious is the most abominable."

Bai Chen found that some of Xiao Lin's thoughts were really different from those of ordinary men in ancient times. If he were another man, he would definitely blame the second wife for being too vicious, the third wife for being too resentful, and the eldest lady for being too ignorant, but he would not attribute the mistake to On Jiang Shangshu.

On the other hand, Xiao Chuan, he is completely patriarchal, and even if he marries a man, he will treat him as a woman subconsciously.

"Yes, a man who is incapable of managing the back house is not qualified to have three wives and four concubines." Bai Chen spread his hands, "It's a pity that we don't count."

"Even if you have the ability, it's best to only marry one." Xiao Lin said, "A person only has one heart, how can he pretend to be so many people?"

Bai Chen thought, yes, how can one heart hold so many people?It's all because the love isn't deep enough.

Afterwards, the two fell into silence at the same time, and the air in the room suddenly felt awkward.

This topic is really not suitable for their "false couple" to discuss. Bai Chen was only silent for a moment, and then brought the topic back to the case.

"Besides the weird poison, I think there is also something wrong with the maid in the house." Bai Chen said, "How can an ordinary maid from a merchant's house have such good skills?"

"Maybe this Huan'er is not the servant girl of the third wife, or even from her natal family." Xiao Lin said, "The merchant usually needs to deal with all kinds of people. From what you said, the third wife was also helping her father run the business before she got married. shop, then you will also have the opportunity to make friends from all walks of life, this Huan'er may be her friend in the world."

"A friend is willing to commit himself to a man he doesn't know in order to avenge her, and even conceive his flesh and blood for him?" Bai Chen was very surprised. This kind of thinking is somewhat incomprehensible to him, a modern person.

Xiao Lin said: "This is just my guess, maybe there is something else in it that I don't know. Mr. Luo should investigate these things clearly, but about the poison, I don't think the suspect master and servant will speak easily."

"Because other people were involved?" Bai Chen asked.

Xiao Lin nodded, "That's right. But last time I asked Feiyun to go to the south of the city to investigate because of Nantianzhu, and found that they have a small circle of foreign merchants. They brought all the herbs here, I will ask Feiyun to check this line."

Bai Chen smiled and cupped his hands, "Thank you very much."

The two chatted about the case for a while, and Bai Chen gradually became tired.

"Have a good rest, I'll go first." Xiao Lin got up, ready to leave.

"Young Master Xiao." Bai Chen remembered something and stopped him, "I want to ask, who really returned to the Liu Mansion with Young Master Liu?"

Xiao Lin turned his head, "Yes."

"..." The corners of Bai Chen's mouth twitched, "I'm as timid as a mouse, I actually hid there."

"I don't know if he is hiding from me." Xiao Lin said, "But he was really beaten by his sister-in-law because he went to the Qinlou Chu Pavilion, and he chased him to make amends."

"Would he be so stupid to be discovered?" Bai Chen was very suspicious.

The corner of Xiao Lin's mouth curled up, "Of course he didn't expose himself."

Bai Chen: ...

It turned out that this black-bellied iceberg made it!

"I'm married to Mr. Liu, and he dared to go to those places. He really had the guts of a bear."

Xiao Lin shook his head: "It's for marriage, both men and women."

Bai Chen really wanted to write a convincing letter to Xiao Lin, and he found all the evidence so early.

This incident will definitely make Xiao Chuan and his wife uncomfortable.

Because it was before they got married, Liu Rufeng had no reason to break up with Xiao Chuan, but he was arrogant, and the other party not only went to find a young lady, but also went to find a woman, which would definitely make him feel uncomfortable.

The thorn in his heart has been pierced, he can't spit it out, he can't swallow it, Xiao Chuan will have a hard time in the future.

"I didn't expect him to be so promiscuous before he got married." Bai Chen sighed.

"Could it be that you still thought he was a lover?" Xiao Lin suddenly said inexplicably, "It's okay, everyone has mistakes."

... Bai Chen took the blame again silently, "I have already died once, and my blindness has been cured. Don't mention it again, Mr. Xiao."

"Okay, then I'll go first, you have a good rest."

Turning around, Xiao Lin couldn't help showing a smile when he thought of Bai Chen's crumpled features.
