Who Said I Was a Coquettish Bitch
Chapter 98
Xiao Lin left Bai Chen's house and got into the carriage.
But he hasn't figured out whether he wants to chase after Moon Tower.
He didn't want Bai Chen to feel that he was pushing him too hard too hard, but the depression in his heart that wanted to figure out what was going on made him feel uncomfortable all over again.
He found himself a little scared, afraid that Bai Chen would really alienate him.
"Young master." The groom saw his master sitting in the carriage without making a sound for a long time, so he asked cautiously, "Where are we going?"
Xiao Lin closed his eyes and thought for a moment: "Watching the moon tower."
In any case, meet people first.
He wants to see him.
"Yes."
The groom didn't dare to delay, so he raised his whip quickly, and the horse neighed, and quickly disappeared into the lane at dusk.
……
Bai Chen and Jiang Haochen got out of the carriage, and the young servant of the Jiang family who was waiting at the door stepped forward to greet him: "Master, the private rooms are all arranged, and the dishes haven't been ordered yet."
"Yeah." Jiang Haochen looked around and said mysteriously, "Brother didn't come, did he?"
The boy said: "The eldest young master is not in the mansion today, so he should not have followed."
Jiang Haochen smiled brightly, "That's good."
Bai Chen was a little surprised: "It's just the two of us having dinner tonight?"
"Yes." Jiang Haochen blinked and said, "Can't you?"
"Yes, yes..." Bai Chen said with a smile, "But you are very brave now, aren't you afraid that your elder brother will scold you if he finds out, he never allows you to act outside alone."
"I'm already this old." Jiang Haochen disapproved, "If I'm in good health, I'm afraid I'm married, and only they treat me like a child. Sometimes I want to drink and eat alone with my friends and colleagues, and I don't want him to accompany me."
"I understand how you feel." Bai Chen patted him on the shoulder, "Then let's go up."
It seems that having a capable and strict elder brother is a blessing, and occasionally a sweet burden.
The two came to the private room and ordered some favorite dishes, and Jiang Haochen generously ordered a pot of moon-watching wine.
Without Jiang Haoran present, Jiang Haochen obviously wanted to let go, and no longer just cared about eating, but also chatted casually with Bai Chen about various topics.
——Even secretly drank a cup of Mochizuki Niang.
"You can only have one drink." Bai Chen agreed with him three chapters, "Your body is not suitable for drinking too much."
Jiang Haochen obviously couldn't hold enough alcohol, he only drank half a glass, his face turned a little red, he pursed his mouth, "Brother didn't come, so you're taking care of me. I know, I only have one drink."
"Let's eat some food." Bai Chen picked up a chopstick for him, "Your elder brother is also for your own good. My elder brother and I are no different from strangers."
Bai Chen remembered that Bing'er said that Bai Xingbang hardly talked to Bai Chen, and regarded this concubine younger brother as nothing.
"I'm sorry..." Jiang Haochen thought his words had aroused Bai Chen's sadness, so he hurriedly apologized, "I didn't mean to mention this."
"No need to apologize, you're right." Bai Chen looked at Jiang Haochen's appearance as a little white rabbit, and unconsciously regarded him as his younger brother, obviously Jiang Haochen was older than him now.
Bai Chen raised his glass and reminded again, "You will drink tea when you have half a glass left."
"Cheers." Jiang Haochen raised his glass with a smile, and the two drank the wine in the glass.
Bai Chen found out that what Jiang Haochen said was right. Occasionally, he went out to have a drink with his friends and have a small gathering. Even if he chatted about some irrelevant topics, he could relax his body and mind.
——Of course, this friend does not include Xiao Lin.
Because Xiao Lin's way of getting along with him has surpassed his understanding of friends.
He suddenly remembered this headache, and couldn't help sighing.
"Brother Chen, what's the matter with you?" Jiang Haochen put down his cup and asked concerned, "Is there something on your mind? Or is there some trouble?"
"It's okay." Bai Chen is not used to sharing his secret feelings with others, so he just said, "It's just that I'm a little tired after traveling all day."
"When you're tired, drink a few more glasses of fine wine to relieve your fatigue." Jiang Haochen filled up the wine for Bai Chen, "Drunk can relieve a thousand worries."
"I think you're talking nonsense."
As the voice fell, the door was suddenly opened, and Jiang Haoran appeared in front of the two of them unprepared.
Jiang Haochen's right hand was still holding the jug, and he froze in mid-air.
"Brother, why are you here?" His face was full of surprise, and there was a trace of fear.
"Hmph." Jiang Haoran walked in, "If I don't come, I'm afraid that you will turn the world upside down today, and sneak out without my permission. You are getting bolder."
The boy drooped his head outside the door, looking depressed after being scolded.
Jiang Haochen was a little angry: "Are you following me?"
"Who is following you?" Jiang Haoran said, "I ran into Master Shizi on the road, and we just made an appointment to have dinner and drink together."
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Lin's tall figure also appeared at the door.
He glanced at Bai Chen with piercing eyes, then nodded solemnly: "That's right."
Bai Chen: ...
How about lying to a three-year-old? !
It is not surprising that Jiang Haoran appeared, but why did this iceberg appear here?Really such a coincidence?
To be honest, he hasn't figured it out yet, and he doesn't know how to treat him.
Bai Chen was muttering in his heart, but saw Jiang Haochen put away his angry expression, and said in a low voice, "I see, that's because I blamed you big brother."
Bai Chen: ...
Well, Jiang Haochen is about the same as a three-year-old child.
"Since you are also eating here, why don't you just join us." Jiang Haoran said, "It also saves the trouble of scoring two places."
After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for the two to answer, and sat down on his own.
Can Bai Chen say no?cannot.
So Xiao Lin also sat down.
The two-person gathering to drink some wine and eat some side dishes turned into a four-person dinner as usual.
His eyes collided with Xiao Lin who was opposite, Bai Chen didn't know what to say, he could only smile awkwardly, and poured wine for Xiao Lin and Jiang Haoran.
"Why did you think of inviting Mr. Bai to dinner today?" Jiang Haoran asked curiously, "I didn't see you mentioning it when I had dinner this morning."
"Because I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss Brother Chen." Jiang Haochen said frankly, "So after finishing the value, I specially waited for him at the door of his house."
Jiang Haoran glanced at Xiao Lin, coughed, and reprimanded pretendingly: "You will be self-willed. Next time you want to invite friends and colleagues to dinner alone, just tell me. You don't need to hide it like a thief. I won't come with you."
"Really?" Jiang Haochen's eyes lit up, "Then can I often meet with Brother Chen alone in the future?"
Xiao Lin: ...
Bai Chen: ...
"Mr. Bai has been very busy recently, so don't make trouble." Jiang Haoran saw that Xiao Lin's face was darkened, and changed the subject decisively, and said in a low voice, "I heard that He Wenguang was knocked on the head, and the case of Jiang Yang's bandit was transferred to you in Dali. temple?"
Xiao Lin: "Your news is as good as ever."
Jiang Haoran knew that Xiao Lin was upset, so he didn't answer his words, but looked at Bai Chen.
"Yes." Jiang Haoran was well-informed, and Bai Chen didn't need to hide it, "I'm afraid I'm going to be too busy with this case recently."
"I heard from my friends in Jianghu that the Jiangyang thief knows martial arts, and his light skills are not bad. He committed many crimes in the south of the Yangtze River before, but the government has nothing to do with him." Jiang Haoran reminded, "You have to be careful."
"Thank you for your concern." Bai Chen raised his glass, "Stop talking about this, cheers."
During the break, he didn't want to propose too much, he just wanted to relax and have a good drink or two.
……
After dinner, Jiang Haoran took Jiang Haochen away very consciously, Xiao Lin's face finally looked better.
"Let's go, take my carriage back." When Xiao Lin said this, his expression was very calm, but there was a trace of uneasiness in his heart.
Bai Chen said, "Okay."
The two got into the car, and when Bai Chen saw his usual seat, he thought of what happened last night, and instinctively changed to another place.
Xiao Lin was startled, did he really find out?
At this moment, he kind of wanted to chop off his uncontrollable hand.
In the car, neither of them spoke, Bai Chen still kept his eyes closed, but Xiao Lin didn't dare to be mean this time.
"Isn't this case very difficult?"
Seeing Bai Chen's tired face, Xiao Lin broke the silence.
"There are very few clues, everything is our inference." Bai Chen opened his eyes and did not hide it from him, "We suspect that the murderer has an assistant."
Then he briefly told Xiao Lin about the situation he investigated during the day.
After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he still trusted Xiao Lin so much that he even told him the details of the case.
He really regarded this iceberg as a friend, but why did things go so far wrong?
"This person is cruel, and the emperor ordered to solve the case within half a month." Xiao Lin frowned, "Do you have any countermeasures?"
Bai Chen paused: "Lead the snake out of the hole."
Xiao Lin was very clever, and immediately guessed Bai Chen's intentions.
He was surprised: "Do you want to make bait yourself?"
Bai Chen nodded, "Yes."
"No." Xiao Lin's first reaction was exactly the same as Luo Lanye's, "That villain knows martial arts and light work, it's too dangerous for you to be bait."
Bai Chen suddenly felt a little inexplicable irritability in his heart. In their minds, is he really so weak?
"I'm not a delicate flower, so don't worry too much." Bai Chen said, "When the time comes, I will let two yamen servants with strong martial arts secretly protect me."
Xiao Lin wanted to say something else, but Bai Chen raised his hand to stop him, "If you treat me as a friend, respect my decision, don't forget, I'm also a man."
Xiao Lin was stunned, and he said for a while: "Then you must pay attention to safety."
He knew that he might have touched Bai Chen's minefield just now. Unlike those people, Bai Chen was self-reliant and didn't want to depend on others.It was precisely because of this that he was unknowingly attracted to him.
And what he did just now was indeed inappropriate.
Bai Chen's tone also slowed down, "Don't worry, I cherish my life very much, and I won't bet my life."
Xiao Lin said: "...OK."
……
The carriage quickly arrived at the gate of Bai Chen's courtyard, and Bai Chen said, "Then I'll go back."
——Still didn't mean to let Xiao Lin go in and sit down.
"Did you buy your carriage?" Xiao Lin asked.
"I bought it." Bai Chen said, "Tomorrow I will ask Ruyi to pick up the carriage."
Xiao Lin said, "That's good."
"I... went in." Bai Chen got out of the car, turned around and said, "Be careful on the road."
Xiao Lin nodded, "Go in."
When Bai Chen walked into the courtyard and the courtyard door was closed, he ordered the groom to leave.
The road ahead may be difficult, but he will not give up.
The author has something to say: Someone Xiao: Oh! ! !
But he hasn't figured out whether he wants to chase after Moon Tower.
He didn't want Bai Chen to feel that he was pushing him too hard too hard, but the depression in his heart that wanted to figure out what was going on made him feel uncomfortable all over again.
