Undying Curse Part 2
Chapter 14 Doubt
During lunch, Bai Jing and Su Yang came to the restaurant, judging from Li Shaochu's expression, it was the first time he saw Su Yang.There were all kinds of delicacies on the dinner table, and during the meal, since the two elders were chatting about business, the juniors ate and drank obediently.
It is said to be a simple homely meal, but in Bai Jing's eyes, it is more like a carefully arranged game. The marriage between the Li family and the Su family is just that the two families have cards that each other needs. The promise is just moved to the table.
Marriage since ancient times is not for money and power, Bai Jing just can't figure it out, now that the Li family has money and power, Su Mancheng is just the dean of the Academy of Archeology, with his father's determination in business, he wants to become the wife of the Li family. It is still difficult to reach the sky.
Could it be that Su Mancheng has something his father wanted in his hand, and this thing is in a dead man's tomb?
This was all in Bai Jing's mind during the meal, and he accidentally glanced at Li Shaochu, only to realize that this veritable pervert kept staring at Su Yang, which was really embarrassing.
"Second brother, anyway, you are someone who has seen the world, and you should be a gentleman." Bai Jing picked up a clean white porcelain spoon, put a piece of tofu into the rice seedling bowl, and joked bluntly: "Tofu can't be casual. Eat, be careful not to burn it."
Su Yang glanced at Li Shaochu who was sitting opposite, and looked back at the white mirror beside him, just smiling without saying a word.
Li Shaochu glanced at the crab roe tofu, and said to Bai Jing: "It's better not to pick up food for others with your hands, it's not too bad luck."
I thought that Bai Jing would be angry and Su Yang would be surprised when he said this, but Su Yang frowned instead, and the corners of Bai Jing's lips curled up slightly.
"Second Brother is wrong to say that. Compared with Sister Su's work, my job is nothing more than a big deal, especially the place where Miss Su works. If Second Brother is interested, he can take a look." Bai Jing ignored What was Li Shaochu's expression? Instead, he turned his eyes to Su Mancheng, with a good-looking face, "Uncle Su, can I ask you some questions?"
Obviously, what Bai Jing said just now made the faces of the two fathers not very good. Out of politeness, Su Mancheng asked, "What do you want to ask?"
"How much does Uncle Su know about the situation in that tomb about the bombing that happened half a month ago?" Bai Jing stared at Su Mancheng with a harmless face, taking in his and his father's expressions.
"Oh?" Su Mancheng looked slightly surprised, "Xiao Jing is a policeman?"
"No." Bai Jing smiled and said, "I'm a forensic doctor. I put together the corpses at the scene of the explosion with my own hands."
Li Shaochu only heard the words "corpses at the explosion site", and his complexion was not very good. He stared at Bai Jing's hands, and thinking about it, he even felt a little nauseous.
"It's amazing to be a forensic doctor at a young age." Su Mancheng praised, and said, "But the police said this case was an accident. I don't know what Xiao Jing wants to ask me?"
"That's right, the explosion was probably an accident. I asked Sister Su before, but unfortunately we didn't have any clues. I think Uncle Su, you are the dean, you should know more than us, right?"
"It is inconvenient to disclose information about this tomb to the outside world, but you are Lao Li's daughter and my daughter's friend, so I will naturally tell you what I know." Su Mancheng looked calm, thought for a while and continued He said: "That tomb is from the Tang Dynasty, and it is still being mined and excavated, so the identity of the owner of the tomb has not been revealed. As for why it exploded, although I am the dean, I only have the right to make decisions, but I don't have the right to directly participate. Of the two persons in charge of the case, one was killed on the spot, and the other committed suicide two weeks ago, that's all I know."
Sure enough, Jiang was still old and spicy, but Bai Jing couldn't see anything strange in Su Mancheng's eyes. It was such a complete disguise that made Bai Jing more sure of something.
"Since this is the case, there is nothing I can do." The disappointment in Bai Jing's eyes was clearly revealed, he straightened up and said to his father, "I'm a little tired, I want to go back and rest, you guys eat slowly."
Seeing Bai Jing leave, Li Shaochu was overjoyed, and explained to Su Yang: "My sister is like this, she has always been defiant, Miss Su, don't be offended."
Su Yang looked at Bai Jing's leaving back and was a little dazed. Hearing Li Shaochu's words, he shook his head, "No, I think she is a soft-tempered person with a straightforward and cute personality."
Li Sheng looked at the closed door for a while, and then said: "She lacked family warmth since she was a child, and I didn't discipline her well."
"No, no, I appreciate your daughter's courage. Not everyone can be a forensic doctor."
……
The scene quickly returned to the time when the two elders were talking about business. The meal lasted for another half an hour before it officially ended.
Su Mancheng took Su Yang and left directly because there was still something to do in the courtyard.Li Sheng and Li Shaochu stood at the door and watched them leave.
"Shao Chu, it seems that you are very satisfied with Su Yang?"
"Of course the daughter-in-law of the Li family needs her father's satisfaction to be the most important thing." Li Shaochu responded respectfully.
"Su Yang is a good girl. If you want to be worthy of her, you have to change your daily living habits. Don't make trouble for yourself at this juncture, especially for your sister." Li Sheng said directly, Look dignified.
"Yes, father, I understand." No matter how domineering Li Shaochu was on weekdays, in front of his father, he was as weak as a lamb.
Li Sheng turned around and returned to the villa, and said to the servant who was waiting on the side: "Ask Miss San to come to my study."
"Master." The servant pursed his lower lip in embarrassment, "Miss San left 10 minutes ago."
Li Sheng glanced at Bai Jing's car, "Her car is still here."
"Miss San rode away on the young master's motorcycle." The servant looked ashamed, "I stopped her before, but Miss San's skills and temper..."
"Forget it." Li Sheng shook his head helplessly, turned back to the villa, and reminded: "Next time Miss San comes back, you must keep an eye on her."
"Yes, sir."
Su Mancheng drove Su Yang all the way away from the Li family's villa area. Seeing that his daughter hadn't spoken, he smiled and said, "Ah Yang, what do you think of the second son of the Li family?"
"You want to tell the truth?"
Su Mancheng laughed twice, "Haha", "Actually, I am more optimistic about the eldest son of the Li family, but he is already married. Although the second son's conditions are average, he is much better than those outside. You have been following me since childhood. Going west, now I have also joined the archaeological work, facing more ancient corpses than living people, and I am not young anymore, I should think about myself, otherwise I will really become an old girl."
"This is what I like too. I found it boring at first, but later I found that facing and studying ancient corpses is much easier than facing and studying living people." Su Yang tilted his head and looked directly at his father. Is it okay to marry the Li family?"
"The field of archaeology, so to speak, damages yin deficiency and is not good for the capital. Your mother was sick and finally left us. I was thinking at the time, we must let you get less exposed to these things, find a good family to entrust you for life, and stop Touching ancient corpses and ghosts." Su Mancheng said seriously, but he knew his daughter's character better, "I know you don't like this marriage, and the second son is not qualified just to hear the reaction of the corpse. If you are really... so dissatisfied, Dad will never force you. "
Su Yang looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, leaned his head in a daze, and looked at the crossroad ahead, "We'll talk about this later, stop in front, and I won't accompany you back to the courtyard."
"Where are you going?" Su Mancheng stopped on the side of the road with the turn signal on, "Are you coming back for dinner tonight?"
"You also said that it's too gloomy and cold to be in the office for a long time." Su Yang looked at the shopping mall in the distance, "I need to get down to earth, and I will take care of dinner by myself."
"Okay, stay safe."
"You drive too, don't go home too late." Su Yang stood where he was, watching his father's car disappear into the traffic, and did not leave in a hurry, but turned his head and stretched out his hand to a black motorcycle.
The cool black motorcycle stopped in front of Su Yang, and the windshield was lifted, revealing Bai Jing's exquisite facial features, "What a coincidence?"
"Are you following me?" Su Yang's expression was a little displeased, but his tone was still gentle, "Still following my father?"
Bai Jing didn't expect that Su Yang would find her, and she didn't expect her so-called grounding to stop her here. She took off her helmet, straightened her long black hair, and said, "I just followed my intuition. Uncle Su and my father kept things from us, including the bombing."
"Intuition?"
"A lot of times, isn't it all about intuition when looking at problems?" Bai Jing tilted his head, looked directly at Su Yang, and said seriously, "Didn't your intuition tell you that I'll follow?"
"That's right." Su Yang nodded without denying it, "But he is still my father. I don't care about your relationship with your father, but I believe my father will not do anything out of line."
"I'm only here to investigate the case. As for Uncle Su and my father, I'm not interested in what they want to do." With a smile on his lips, Bai Jing picked up a helmet from the back seat and handed it to her. "Let's go, I'll take you down to earth."
Su Yang looked at Bai Jing's outerwear, then looked down at the long skirt, and shook his head, "My clothes are not convenient for riding a motorcycle, I..." At this point, Su Yang's eyes were slightly startled, "You not only followed us , and still listening? You know, is it too much for you to do this?"
Bai Jing didn't answer, looked at Su Yang from top to bottom, operated the locomotive to the side of the road and stopped, threw off the straight too long leg, took off the car key, and said: "Let's go to the mall first, I Let me change your clothes with you."
"Bai Jing." Su Yang didn't follow her, let alone obey her, but just looked at her seriously.
Bai Jing knows what kind of character she is. She never cares about the feelings of those around her, and she does what she thinks is right and what she likes.So for so many years, she only had Qianyan as a friend by her side, and it was not without reason.The difference is that she understands her in shallow words, and there are many things that don't need to be explained, but Su Yang in front of her doesn't understand her.
But the strange thing is that Bai Jing didn't want to be misunderstood by Su Yang, and he couldn't find a better way to explain it for a while, so the two of them just stalemate in place.
The fringe of the business district was already crowded with people, two tall and thin women with different styles, and a cool black motorcycle in between, naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Some people look at cars before looking at people, and some people look at people before looking at cars.
Eyes met, Bai Jing blinked, and finally surrendered, "I'm sorry, I have no intention of violating your *."
As if Su Yang was waiting for this sentence, he lowered his eyebrows, "Do you really suspect that my father is related to the bombing?"
"Just doubt."
"24 hours."
Bai Jing didn't understand, "What?"
"After 24 hours, no matter what the result is, you have to turn off the monitor." Su Yang looked at Bai Jing solemnly, "and keep secret what you heard during this period and everything that has nothing to do with the case."
"Okay, I promise you." After Bai Jing finished speaking, seeing Su Yang who was leaving towards that side, Bai Jing asked, "Where are you going?"
Su Yang turned around and glanced at the motorcycle, then smiled at Bai Jing, "Aren't you going to buy clothes?"
Bai Jing stood on the spot, blinked his eyes, and didn't understand why he felt subdued when facing Su Yang. It wasn't because of her skill, but because he couldn't understand this woman at all.
It is said that gentle women are very popular, in Bai Jing's view, it is not just as simple as being popular, it makes people lose their temper and blame themselves.
……
After spending the whole morning outside, after receiving a call from the agency, I returned home half an hour early to clean up the other room, because someone would come to see the room in the afternoon.
Before he had time to drink after cleaning up, he heard the doorbell ring, Qian Yan was still hanging by a medical sling with one arm, adjusted his coat with the other hand and went to open the door, but froze on the spot.
It is said to be a simple homely meal, but in Bai Jing's eyes, it is more like a carefully arranged game. The marriage between the Li family and the Su family is just that the two families have cards that each other needs. The promise is just moved to the table.

Su Yang glanced at Li Shaochu who was sitting opposite, and looked back at the white mirror beside him, just smiling without saying a word.
Li Shaochu glanced at the crab roe tofu, and said to Bai Jing: "It's better not to pick up food for others with your hands, it's not too bad luck."
I thought that Bai Jing would be angry and Su Yang would be surprised when he said this, but Su Yang frowned instead, and the corners of Bai Jing's lips curled up slightly.
