Turning point

Mu Beidou slept for more than two hours before recovering his energy.

It was night, of course.

The bowl of porridge he just drank was not of much use, but now he feels hungry again.Gin went to the downstairs kitchen to cook, and Mu Beidou was extremely bored, sitting on the bed and playing with the miniature audio player that he got from the unknown man.His eyes sank slightly.

What exactly is said here?

And who wants to convey these to themselves?

If that mysterious person knew that he would definitely go to the banquet that day, so he asked the man to bring this to him... then this mysterious person should also know his whereabouts like the palm of his hand.

Moreover, he also knows the poison on his body, which may have something to do with the poisoning incident 24 years ago.

Back then, my father ordered a thorough investigation but found no results, only a few insignificant small fish were found, but the mastermind who poisoned him had no clue.

Besides, the timing is also quite coincidental. A while ago, the Mu family suffered losses in several large properties abroad, and even Uncle Mu went back to help because of this matter.Now the mysterious man sent him this... It can't be a coincidence.

Mu Beidou was contemplating, but he didn't notice that Qin Jiu had already walked in front of him. Of course, it was also because he was too used to it and didn't defend himself.

A soft kiss fell on the cheek, and a faint smile came from the ear: "It's time to eat."

The deep and familiar tone easily calmed down the restless mood: "Yeah."

Mu Beidou put the things on the bedside table beside him, and put on the home clothes handed over by Gin.The loose white clothes were loosely worn on the body, making his figure even more slender.Mu Beidou supported the bed and stood up. Although his legs were still a little sore, there was no problem in walking.

Qin Jiu was slightly moved, and lowered his head to kiss the base of his ear.Looking at Mu Beidou whose face turned red in an instant, the smile in his eyes deepened a little.

The two of them finished their meal and went back upstairs.

Gin turned on the audio player, and sat on the bed with Mu Beidou.Noticing Mu Beidou's slight tension, Qin Jiu stretched out his hand to gently hold his, to comfort him.

"It's okay." Mu Beidou shook his hand slightly, and then stopped talking, holding his breath and waiting for what the mysterious person wanted to tell him.

The small object placed on the table made a "beep", rustled a few times, and then played a mechanical electronic sound.The man seemed to smile slightly, and called out without sincerity: "Long time no see, Young Master Mu."

Mu Beidou's face tensed instantly.

Long time no see, have they met before?

And he speaks Chinese, is it Chinese?

Before Mu Beidou could think about anything further, the mysterious man's disguised voice sounded again: "Actually, I've always had a question, how did you manage to survive adulthood?"

Qin Jiu narrowed his eyes when he heard the words, and snorted displeasedly, but Mu Beidou's expression was as usual, looking very calm.

The voice kept saying, "It was beyond my expectation that you were able to be born safely. Of course, this is also thanks to your mother who loves her son dearly." His tone suddenly became mocking, with undisguised Malicious: "If she hadn't lost her life, you wouldn't have been able to survive. Don't you think so?"

Mu Beidou's body stiffened instantly, and his pupils dilated slightly.

It is indeed an indisputable fact that the mother who had never met died because of him.Even though everyone told him it was not his fault for so many years, few people mentioned it in front of him, and the guilt never faded with time.

Looking at it from another angle, if it is said that his mother was killed by him, it is... completely correct.

This is true.

Mu Beidou's reaction was so obvious, of course Qin Jiu noticed it immediately.He squeezed his hand and said in a deep voice, "Calm down, he did it on purpose."

Deliberately tempting you to wallow in sadness and self-blame so you can fall into his next trap.

When Qin Jiu saw Mu Beidou's reaction, he knew that this had always been a pain in his heart, but he didn't expect to be dug out suddenly by someone alive and bloody today.

He actually wanted to hug him immediately to comfort him.Qin Jiu always hoped that Mu Beidou could, at least in front of him, cry out heartily when he was sad, and tell his troubles and sorrows freely when he was unhappy.Cry when you want to cry, laugh when you want to laugh, don't have to endure, don't have to cover up.

That is what he is willing to give, the right he should have had.

It's a pity that Qin Jiu also knows that Mu Beidou, like him, is a strong person who doesn't want to show his emotions.

Tears are seen by them as a sign of weakness.

So even though he was distressed, Qin Jiu never said anything like asking him to cry, because he didn't need it at all.

He just needs to be by Mu Beidou's side silently when he is sad.

Mu Beidou was called back by Qin Jiu's steady voice, turned his head slightly and looked into his deep dark green eyes.Mu Beidou closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and when he opened his eyes again, his dark pupils had returned to calm.

Nodding slightly to Gin, Mu Beidou turned his attention to the audio being played again.

The other party seemed to be giving him time to be sentimental, and after a while he said, "Of course, there is nothing good about surviving. You must have had enough of getting poisoned once a month, right?"

"I've also seen you endure the pain after the onset of poison, and your face is pale. Tsk tsk, it's really pitiful."

Mu Beidou's mind turned rapidly.

Has anyone seen him like this?Moreover, there are not many people who have channels to know about the poisoning. After such a calculation, there are not many people who meet the conditions...

The man was still chattering: "Actually, I still admire you very much, but it's a pity... if you block our way, you will die."

"Although I don't know why you lived past adulthood, but think about it, it won't be long before you live well. I hope you can witness the demise of the shepherd family before then."

The demise of the Shepherd!Sure enough, the losses suffered by several large foreign industries a while ago were inseparable from them.

Mu Beidou frowned indistinctly, thought for a while about the several families who had intense interest conflicts with the Mu family, and narrowed down the range of guesses about those candidates just now.

"Think about the miserable end of people who have been poisoned by this poison. Before they die, they will suffer from endless cold and pain. Most of them can't bear to kill themselves... I think you must have suffered from this matter. Are you clear? If you don’t know, then you don’t need to thank me.” The man said hypocritically, and then he smiled gloatingly: “Oh, I also forgot to say that if you can survive a month, you may still be able to survive. I met me in China. Although the Mujia was probably gone by then.”

Mu Beidou is completely nonsense.

But one month later, he still needs to check if there is anything related to Mujia in China.

As he was thinking like this, it seemed that the recording had come to an end, and the player made a little noise, followed by a "click".

This is not the same as the sound of electronic products after the voice playback is finished. Mu Beidou stepped forward to pick up the things with a sullen face, and then his face changed slightly.

It is automatically destroyed.

Gin Jiu also came over, not too surprised to see this result.He looked at Mu Beidou and asked lightly: "Do you have an idea about the candidate now?"

Mu Beidou nodded: "It's basically confirmed."

"Thinking along the line of thought provided by the recording?"

"Huh?" Mu Beidou quickly realized the meaning of Qin Jiu, and his face changed slightly: "You mean, that person deliberately induced me..."

"Otherwise." Qin Jiu asked lightly: "Otherwise, why would he talk so much nonsense, disturb your state of mind before talking about the topic, and then destroy the recording at the end."

"It's just to let you have a preconceived impression, and you can't compare it after you calm down." Speaking of this, Qin Jiu helplessly rubbed Mu Beidou's hair: "You are still too inexperienced." Fortunately, I Here, otherwise with Mu Beidou's cautiousness and Uncle Mu's absence, he would just finish listening to this recording by himself, and then obediently jump into the other party's trap.

Qin Jiu's words made Mu Beidou break all previous conjectures.He pushed back according to those candidates, and came up with a few new ideas.

However, these still need to be discussed in detail with my father and elder brother.

Qin Jiu took the player and threw it into the trash can casually, and when he looked at Mu Beidou again, his face sank: "Since this matter is resolved, let's move on to the next one."

Looking at Qin Jiu's unfriendly expression, Mu Beidou suddenly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, his premonition came true in the next moment.Qin Jiu looked at him with a cold face: "Mu Beidou, do you know how long you can live?"

Mu Beidou took a breath.

Seeing his reaction, Qin Jiu narrowed his eyes dangerously, and even his voice became colder: "So, what he said is true?"

Mu Beidou really can't live long? !

Damn it, he never said it!If he hadn't taken the initiative to ask the question today, how long would he have kept it a secret? !

The more Qin Jiu thought about it, the darker his face became, but Mu Beidou completely misunderstood, feeling overwhelmed and bitter.

He knew that he would not live long and still tempted Gin to sleep with him, even if it was not his intention, but this matter was quite shameless no matter how you looked at it.So...it's perfectly normal for Gin to be angry.

The agreement we made just now doesn't count, does it?

After all, who would want to fall in love with...a person who is dying.

Mu Beidou bit his lower lip, lowered his eyes and took a step back.

However, Qin Jiu took a big stride to catch up, and the two of them were almost chest to chest.Qin Jiu pinched his chin and gritted his teeth and asked, "Since you already knew, then this morning..." Is it because you feel that you don't have many days to live and want to make up for being so active this morning? !

Of course, Mu Beidou thought that Qin Jiu was hating the shamelessness of his behavior, and shrank from the pain in his heart.

However, even so, he still firmly suppressed his urge to scream, trying to maintain the little dignity left.He tried his best to keep his voice indifferent, but he didn't dare to look at the gin, for fear of breaking himself at a glance: "That's right, I lied to you."

"If you mind..." At this point, Mu Beidou's Adam's apple slid up and down, and finally he couldn't hold back the trembling of his voice: "We'll just...break up."

"We've never been together anyway." He smiled as if he was about to cry, his heart was aching from watching Gin Jiu, but he couldn't help being so angry that he was burning with anger.

The author has something to say: Don’t send me blades... In fact, it’s pretty good to stop here. You can make up your mind, right ╮(╯_╰)╭

How cool is this situation...

Also, I think few people can guess the follow-up development, right?

By the way, thank you little angel Luoluo for the grenade!I didn’t see it yesterday, but I found it today after looking at the earnings_(:з」∠)_ sorry
