That afternoon Bai Chen finally left, but Bai Lu didn't dare to go out again until it was dark.There was another knock on the door, but this time it was much gentler than last time.

He leaned against the door and asked, "Who?"

"I," came a familiar voice, "I'm here to pick you up and the young master."

Only then did he feel relieved, took off the anti-theft bolt, and opened the door.

Zhou Ling walked in and thoughtfully brought two boxed lunches, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

"Get ready to buy."

Zhou Ling smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid to go out?"

Being so obviously mocked by others, Bai Lu didn't have time to argue now, so he stared at him with startled eyes, "Can I go now?"

"Are you in such a hurry? Let's leave after eating. The mansion hasn't cooked for the past few days, and there's nothing to eat when I go there on an empty stomach."

Diandian seemed to be extremely hungry. Zhou Ling put the boxed lunch on the table, and he immediately went over to uncover one, stopped before eating a few bites, and brought the other to his father with his hands, his eyes shining brightly. Looking at him: "Dad, are you hungry too? It's delicious."

Bai Lu took it with a smile, but he just put it in his hand and didn't move - he couldn't eat at all now.

"Eat a little bit, too, or you'll be hungry at night." There's no reason why Zhou Ling said this. Bai Lu used more radical methods this time than before. His master was in a bad mood, and he made a lot of connections and used a lot of connections. Only then did he slightly suppress this matter that was about to continue to ferment, and he still couldn't rest assured after all these were resolved, after all, Bai Chen was a lunatic, capable of anything!The family business failed, several arms routes were annexed, and the goods could not be returned. This time Tan Mu almost failed to save him. He was pushed to the limit, and he used all means—this was not good for the Xie family.

In the end, Xie Juanting agreed to Bai Chen's request for the first time, that's right, he let the customs relax, devolved the power of the Bai family's letter of credit, and returned the previously confiscated ones.But this didn't make Bai Chen get what he wanted, but barely made up for the face he lost earlier, he still had to continue to make things difficult, and let Xie Junting also taste the taste of begging for help in a low-key manner.

But Xie Junting watched him act presumptuously in front of her indifferently, and had no patience to waste any more, so he directly threw him something - information about Tan Xi and various criminal records.

Bai Chen's face was still arrogant, and he had no interest in women at all. He even said provocatively that if it was about that bastard Bai Lu, he could barely take a look.

In his opinion, he was once again deceived by Bai Lu. It turned out that Cheng Yiyang's meekness and compromise that night were just a tactic to delay the attack. It was the same as before when his liking was used as a bargaining chip against Tan Mu—just using—in the end He was given up by Bai Lu once again—even though he has become a member of Xie's family again.

——Bai Lu, you wait.

Outside of official business, Xie Junting's patience was almost entirely devoted to Bai Lu alone. To Bai Chen, he would not break the line of defense step by step like he did to Cheng Yiyang back then, he just said a word coldly.

"After one month of execution, you can still see your mother for the last time."

After speaking, he left without looking at Bai Chen's reaction or expression.

If Bai Chen failed to see any clues from the document about Tan Xi, then he is really stupid - such a person is not worthy to be the Xie family's opponent.

Xie Juanting drove the car out from Bai's house, and the whole journey went smoothly without encountering any obstacles, and Bai Chen did not chase him out.Two hours later, people from the procuratorate called him and said that Bai Chen had withdrawn the case.

At that moment, Xie Juanting knew that this troublesome matter was completely put to rest.

Zhou Ling has been by the young master's side for so many years, and Xie Juanting strictly abides by the various rules to the point of being unreasonable and cruel, but the two occasions when he made an exception and used his personal power were all because of one person.

"The trouble you caused with Xie Tang this time made the young master a little angry, let me remind you, what he said to you, you must not talk back, even if you think it's wrong, please hold back, just let it pass quietly. "

Bai Lu was puzzled, why was Xie Junting angry?Obviously, he already knew that he wanted to take revenge on Tan Mu, and he also agreed-why, couldn't he act without authorization?A true avenger has always been eager to wait. There is only one possibility for an avenger who can wait to see his enemy live well in front of him and remain indifferent—he can let go of his hatred most of the time. .Bai Lu has waited for seven or eight years just for this moment. The front is just preparation and lurking. He can't wait to take real action. It has only been less than half a year since he approached Bai's house, and he has achieved this step. .

Seeing his cold and stubborn face, Zhou Ling sighed, "Master Lu, haven't you worn out your vigor for eight years? Why are you still as impulsive as before? If you want wind, it will rain. What happened now is a bit of a joke." It's tricky, it took a lot of effort just to find witnesses to silence them!"

All along, Bai Lu has been too lucky, it was Xie Junting who used the deception instead of Bai Chen, otherwise how could he be free until now?Later, there was a woman backing her up, and she changed her face and identity. She had never seen how bloody and sacrificed it was, and she didn't know that crimes needed to be handled so delicately.

Bai Lu lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked, "Have I left any clues in the hospital?"

Zhou Ling didn't want to explain to this amateur one by one, he just said: "Let me just say this, anyone who has seen your face can become a witness to identify you as the murderer! They may be used by Bai Chen to testify against you , understand? I want to settle all these people and make him shut up!"

Bai Lu's heart skipped a beat, "You're not going to kill them, are you?"

Zhou Ling was at a loss for words, and glared at him, "How could the Xie family do illegal things, of course they used other means!"

Diandian seldom saw Zhou Ling so serious and dignified, and his father was also silent. He was suddenly a little scared, nestled in his father's arms, and asked in a low voice: "Why did Uncle Zhou Ling say you are a murderer? Dad, you are obviously not. You are a good person. Not a bad guy..."

Bai Lu had nothing to say for a moment, but suddenly stretched out his hand and hugged the child tightly.

Zhou Ling watched and shook his head, should he say Bai Lu is brave or timid?Dare to go all out for his own brother, dare to seduce the young master, dare to aggressively kill Tan Mu, dare to confront Bai Chen; but sometimes he feels that he is very timid, because his identity is obtained by murder, he is afraid, and he feels flustered every time he is questioned , Really... Zhou Ling accidentally found out that it was late, so he didn't continue to pursue the above, "It's better to pack your things, I will take you back to the mansion."

The old butler was very happy when he saw Diandian came back. He seemed to like the kind butler very much, so he walked over and kept talking.Zhou Ling helped Bai Lu carry the box upstairs, "Clear everything out."

"The guest rooms on the third floor haven't been tidied yet. You can stay on the second floor today. You can choose the master bedroom or the second bedroom at will."

"Ah."

"There is a bathroom in the bedroom, with 24-hour hot water. Take all your clothes."

"Bring it."

"If you need anything else, just tell the maid in time."

"Okay, thank you."

"I have to go out for a while. There are still some things that the young master ordered. I have to go now."

Bai Lu nodded while tidying up his clothes. He sweated a little while tidying things up. He took off his coat and wore a close-fitting sweater inside.

He was dressed in light beige and was worn by a big man like him, but it didn't make people feel out of harmony. He couldn't tell what was particularly good-looking, but it was naturally pleasing to the eye.

In Zhou Ling's impression, Bai Lu was the thinnest when he was grounded. He only ate in front of the young master, and he didn't eat when the young master was not around.In the years since he left Xie's house, he has grown a lot of flesh, and his complexion is much better. It should be that he is living a good life.

Young master, I like this person, but I can still make a lot of trouble.

Hey... Zhou Ling secretly sighed, wishing Bai Lu good luck tonight.

At that time, Bai Lu hadn't realized that all he brought with him in a rush were shirts and long sleeves, and he didn't even bring a pair of trousers.He quickly packed up his things, and Dian Dian still didn't come up downstairs, so he sat on the edge of a person's bed and was in a daze for a while.

Xie Juanting didn't restrict his personal freedom, and he probably won't in the future, it's good, he regained his identity and maintained his freedom, and he can see his brother openly in the future.

Bai Lu heard Diandian calling himself downstairs, got up and went down, but when he went out, he found that the master bedroom next to him was still open.

Xie Junting did not have the habit of locking the door in broad daylight, as long as other people were not inside, he would not lock it.

Bai Lu stopped in his tracks, suddenly wanting to go in and have a look.

He peeked inside, and all the furnishings were simple and clear, a big bed, a whole row of cabinets, and a suite inside.There was a watch on the bedside cabinet. Bai Lu walked over to take a look. Obviously, the owner hadn't worn it for a while, and the time of the mechanical watch had deviated.

He opened the drawer of the cabinet, and there was a stack of papers and a few pens inside.There were several strings of numbers written on the paper. He picked it up and looked at it, guessing that it should be the number that Xie Junting wrote down casually.

Then open the second layer, which is full of black gloves.

Looking at the third floor, there is nothing.

I rummaged through all the cabinets, and finally found something slightly interesting——□□.

But he knew that since Xie Junting put the gun directly here, it was probably just a fake, just a mould, it couldn't be opened, and there was no bullet in it.He picked it up, and sure enough, it wasn't as heavy as a real gun at all.

He went to look in the suite again, the cloakroom was on the left hand side of the door, the wine cabinet was on the right hand side, and the bathroom was on the further inside.

After inspecting everything, Bai Lu walked out slowly.

The colors in the cloakroom are very monotonous, only black, white and grey, and the bathrooms are all white towels.

Although the wine cabinet is very large, the wine in it has not been moved much, and it is still full.

Xie Junting generally doesn't drink too much, and the time when he drinks the most is probably when he has sex.

Moreover, no condoms were seen anywhere, which means that at least he never brought his brother back to bed.

Bai Lu thought about that again, as if he could feel a little more at ease after going around like this.

Originally, he decided to look for his brother in the next few days, but today he promised Xie Junting that he would go to jail tomorrow.

But he really wanted to see Bai Li.

Around eleven o'clock, Dian Dian took a shower and lay on the bed.It took Bai Lu about ten minutes to put him to sleep, and then he took his clothes and went to the bathroom.Only then did he realize that most of the things he brought over were little things, and he didn't bring a few pieces of his own clothes—he didn't even have a complete set.After hesitating for a while, he decided to overcome his cleanliness obsession, at least tonight, and put back on today's body after taking a shower.

After returning home at 11:30, Xie Junting felt a little tired, but he still asked Zhou Ling as usual: "Have you completed today's tasks?"

"It's done. I've found all the witnesses in the hospital, especially those who have contact with Bai Lu. Don't worry, I've already negotiated, and they won't talk about it. Those outside the hospital are a bit troublesome to find. , I have to call the traffic police to monitor, I still need a little time."

"How is Xie Tang?"

"I was a little flustered at first, but then he got better. I asked him to go to work in the hospital normally these days and pay attention to his movements at any time."

"Where's Beryl?"

"It's also normal, but young master, I don't think he realizes the seriousness of this matter. You can tell him about it yourself later." Zhou Ling suddenly remembered, oh no, Bai Lu's clothes haven't been given yet. destroy.

"Ah, I forgot to tell him to throw that suit away... My God! I-I'm going to remind him now."

Xie Juanting wanted to say forget it, anyway, the matter has been resolved, Bai Chen's side has stopped, and Bai Lu's clothes can't be used as evidence.But before he opened his mouth, Zhou Ling immediately ran up and knocked on the door of the bedroom. Diandian was already asleep under the quilt, and Bai Lu was taking a bath again, so naturally no one responded.

"Bai Lu opened the door, I forgot to tell you something important..." As a result, with a little force on the doorknob, the door opened without being locked.

Zhou Ling saw that Diandian was sleeping alone, and the light in the suite was still on, so he guessed that Bai Lu was taking a bath.He walked to the door of the bathroom and was about to speak, only to find that the clothes Bai Lu was wearing today were outside.

Avoiding the embarrassing moment of interrupting someone else's shower, he took it almost immediately and left.

Xie Junting was drinking tea, when he heard the hurried footsteps, he raised his eyes slightly.

Zhou Ling stuck out his tongue secretly, "Master, I'll deal with it now!"

He ran all the way to the gate, stuffed the clothes into the hands of the security guard, and told him to take them out and burn them.

The tools and clothing of the crime belonged to the first scene. If you want to benefit yourself as much as possible, it is best to completely destroy these within six hours and destroy all possible physical evidence. There is meth powder remaining, and there is a high probability that there will be the fingerprints of the nurse and pharmacist.Once this is matched, it will be evidence in the future.

"Okay, that's all for today, you go to rest, if anything happens, we will deal with it later."

"Everything has been dealt with, there will be no accidents, don't worry, young master. And Bai Chen obviously has a purpose this time, and now that he has achieved his purpose, he should give up. After all, you have given They are so big and cheap, unprecedented." Zhou Ling's whole body relaxed, "Master, then I'm going to rest, and you should go to bed quickly, don't drink too much tea, you won't be able to fall asleep later."

"Have you told the prison office?"

"Well," Zhou Ling nodded, "their seats are not full, you can just take Bai Lu there tomorrow."

You must know that the real prisons are very cruel and the location is very remote, maybe ten miles around are deserted, in order to prevent prisoners from escaping.In comparison, the prison is simply heaven.

"I think Bai Lu appreciates it and didn't oppose you. You don't have to worry about anything now, young master."

But he still felt that Xie Junting had something on his mind, not sure if it was about...

Of course, Zhou Ling just thought about it for himself and didn't ask.

If the horoscope has not been written yet, it is not good to ask too early, and it seems to be smart.

Bai Lu wiped off the water, his body was still steaming, he was about to get some clothes to wear, but found that there was nothing outside the door.

"A little bit, a little bit," he yelled a few times, "did you take away Dad's dirty clothes?"

No one answered.

He had no choice but to go out first with small steps wrapped in a bath towel, only to find that Diandian was still sleeping with his head covered, clutching the bath towel and searching around, the clothes he had changed had disappeared!

Damn it!

He had no choice but to dig out the longest and loosest top that barely covered his thighs in the suitcase, and put it on.Then wrap your bottom with a towel.

God!You can't sleep like this, it's embarrassing and embarrassing to be seen by children.

He ran out barefoot, and saw that the door of the next room was still open, and it was pitch black—Xie Junting hadn't come back yet.

He went in immediately, ran to the cloakroom, and started looking for his pants.

Originally, I was looking for softer pajama pants, but after searching for a while, I couldn't find any. Bai Lu wanted to scratch his hair, where did he put the pajama pants?Forget it, trousers are fine, as long as you can cover them up!He grabbed a pair of black trousers casually, and before he could remove the shelf, at this moment, he heard the sound of the door closing—a "bang".

He shrank back without thinking.

Why did you choose this time to come back? When you just went out, you obviously didn't feel that there was anyone downstairs.

Xie Junting didn't notice anyone in the room, after all his things are too simple, even if they are moved, they can be easily restored to their original state.Bai Lu just needs to wait for the other party to take a shower, and then come out of the cloakroom.

He really wanted to do it.

But he waited and waited, his legs were sore, but Xie Junting never went to the bathroom.

In fact, it was only 5 minutes, but Bai Lu felt that it was very long.

It's too quiet over there, he must have fallen asleep, he relaxed his vigilance a little, moved, stacked the black pants together, and poked them out, this is the benefit of being barefoot, walking a few steps will not Make noise.Holding the door edge tightly, he glanced cautiously towards the bedroom.Xie Junting took off his coat and leaned on the soft chair, flipping through a stack of documents in his hand.Bai Lu quickly retracted again, but luckily the other party was on his back, so he didn't see a furry head popping out of the cloakroom.

Bai Lu thought about it carefully, should he take the initiative to call out to let the other party know that he broke into his bedroom—say that he came to borrow clothes, Xie Junting probably wouldn't mind such a trivial matter.

But he looked down at himself, and he was wearing a loose unlined shirt, with the bottom bare—it's better not to make any noise.

He didn't care about the three sevens and 21s, first took off a pair of trousers from the hanger, put them on for himself, then found a corner position, curled up in it, and hugged his knees tightly.

He pushed the hangers all over to block himself.

Xie Junting heard a rustling sound inside - like a mouse.

Bai Lu got tired of waiting, and thought about going out and confessing—he was wearing pants anyway—even though it wasn't his own.

He was just about to get up again, but at this moment he heard the sound of a chair being pushed away, followed by footsteps.

Bai Lu had no choice but to stay still, but he found that the footsteps didn't reach the bathroom, as if they stopped in the cloakroom!

Xie Juanting did not turn on the light inside, but looked around with the light from the bedroom.

At first glance, it is indeed inconspicuous, but if you look carefully, you can find that Bai Lu is huddled in the corner, with rows of black clothes blocking him, but still showing a small part of his feet.

Although the toes are all curled up to minimize the sense of presence, but against the black background, even if only a little bit of the tip is exposed, it will be particularly obvious.

Xie Junting walked over, Bai Lu wanted to speak first, but the other party moved faster, knelt down on one knee, and grabbed his foot.

Bai Lu who was suddenly attacked had no time to speak, so he could only let out a low gasp.

He grabbed a slender ankle accurately, and slowly exerted force on his hand. Even if Bai Lu didn't want to, he was still dragged out of the corner.

The trousers of the trousers are very wide, and when the leg is raised, the stiff satin surface slides down the delicate skin, revealing the white calf.

From the ankle up to the calf, there is a beautiful curve.

Bai Lu suddenly became nervous, and tried hard to struggle, but Xie Junting didn't intend to let go, and continued to touch from the ankle upwards.

Bai Lu was numb all over.

Xie Juanting looked at Bai Lu who was frowning slightly, and asked slowly, "A new trick to seduce me, huh?"

As long as he speaks in a calm manner, especially when he speaks only monosyllables, there is always a sense of laziness in his low tone, which is not deterrent.

Bai Lu had played tricks with him a lot in the past—it was the first time in the cloakroom.

After a moment of silence, Bai Lu struggled to free his feet and shrank back.

"I'm sorry, I didn't come in on purpose." Since everyone was caught, it's better to admit your mistake and let the other party let you go back. "I didn't bring a change of clothes, so I have to borrow yours..." As if the other party would not believe it, He also emphasized, "I didn't bring any..."

A cool breath hit his face, and before Bai Lu could recover, Xie Junting suddenly leaned very close, with his hands resting on his sides.

"Are you telling me that you're wearing nothing underneath?"

Slightly deep and hoarse voice, revealing the taste of *.

Bai Lu never thought that what he said just now had that kind of meaning.

Xie Junting suddenly reached out and grabbed Bai Lu's buttocks unexpectedly - Bai Lu was so frightened that he trembled all over.

The round little tip slipped away from the fingertips when it was scratched - the smooth and warm texture made Xie Junting confirm that Bai Lu really didn't wear anything underneath.And the trousers that the other party is wearing indiscriminately are obviously his own.

——If this isn’t intentional seduction, what else could it be?
