evildoers

Dealing with Li Zhurong is a very hard job, especially when Xia Chen still has something to hide.

Fortunately, Xia Chen is familiar with this matter.Even after dinner, Li Zhurong didn't discover any real secrets.

After the meal, Li Zhurong drove Xia Chen home - he loved this cousin who was four or five years younger than himself like a close relative, although he knew that with the conditions of the Xia family, he wouldn't live without studying abroad. It was a hard time, but he still insisted on letting Xia Chen stay at his house for a few days.

Xia Chen didn't object.Now Li Zhurong is like a well-meaning elder, and it is unwise to refuse his care.

He drove a black Lexus to the west of the city and entered Martha's Manor.

"Is this place developed by the Zhuo family?" Li Zhurong suddenly asked.

"Yes."

This is almost a common problem. No matter how high a person's achievements are, in front of outsiders, his achievements will be engraved with the family's mark.

"You have a good relationship with Zhuo's youngest son?" Li Zhurong smiled and glanced at Xia Chen.

Zoro's reputation is not good. Although the younger generations are now in power, even they cannot accept Zoro's unconventional and dazzling silver hair, and his arrogant behavior that makes people look at him.

In fact, because the Zhuo family was established around the 80s, in the eyes of several old families—especially the self-proclaimed scholarly family of the Li family, they are regarded as nouveau riche. For the sake of face, hypocrisy and obedience.When Xia Chen was young, he heard the Xia family's aunts and aunts joke that the sons of the Zhuo family were not well-educated more than once.

Zhuo Luo was heartless, so naturally he couldn't listen to it, but his brother Zhuo Zhen was very competitive. Their father died early, and the Zhuo family has been supported by his brother all these years.

These are all off topic.

"Zuo Luo's character is straightforward and righteous, it's good to be friends." Xia Chen thought for a while, and finally found out two advantages from Zhuo Luo.

Li Zhurong sneered.

"It's best to just be friends. That kid went to play with men a few days ago and was beaten half to death by his brother. He's still lying at home now."

Xia Chen's heart tightened.

Didn't that kid Zhuo Luo always take his brother's life as his life?Although he played like crazy, he never touched men. What happened this time?His brother has always been nice to him, why would he beat him?

Countless thoughts flashed through Xia Chen's mind, but the expression on his face remained unchanged.When he just spoke, Li Zhurong glanced at him nonchalantly, Xia Chen knew that he was testing whether he knew about Zhuo Luo's affairs.

"Didn't Zhuo Luo always like girls? He used to fight with others because of this." Xia Chen said calmly, "Could it be some kind of stimulation?"

"Who knows?" Li Zhurong stretched his arms leisurely, as if he was completely defenseless: "Zhuo Zhen was planning to get married during the Chinese New Year this year, but now that something like this happened, I lost all face, and I may not be able to raise her now." Let's start."

It turned out to be the case.

Xia Chen's heart suddenly became clear.

Li Zhurong, who was sitting beside him, had an intriguing arc on his lips.

Judging from Xiaochen's reaction, there seems to be a lot of inside story about the Zhuo family's affairs.

Li Zhurong has always liked gorgeous things. The house he bought in Martha’s Manor is a villa with a Victorian charm. The garden wall is a rose hedge in full bloom. Li Xiu hadn't gone to bed yet, and was sitting on the sofa playing video games on the PSP.

The housekeeper took off Li Zhurong's coat, and the latter sat down on the sofa, reached out and touched Li Xiu: "Son, what did you do at home today?"

"Playing games." Little Li Xiu has brown curly hair, fair skin, and beautiful eyes that are light blue under the bright light. He should be a cute little mixed-race child, but his expression does not have the childishness that a child of this age should have. .

Li Xiu laughed.

"Is the game fun?" He stroked Li Xiu's head with a smile.

Only then does he act like a young father.

"It's not fun, it's pretty much the same." After Li Xiu evaluated calmly, he raised his eyes to look at Li Zhurong and Xia Chen, and called, "Uncle Chen."

Xia Chen smiled at him.

As early as a few days ago, he had reached a confidentiality agreement with this overly smart kid. Li Xiu would not disclose to Li Zhurong the fact that he lived in someone else's house, nor would he disclose the matter of Lu Jiaming's baby.

At night, Xia Chen sleeps in the guest room of Li's family. The whole room is luxuriously decorated in European style. The curtains are made of dark jacquard fabric. Xia Chen has seen the same brand of curtains when he was traveling in Europe. A set of curtains cost hundreds of thousands of German dollars.

Xia Chen stood at the window and called Lu Zhixu. He didn't have a fixed phone at home, because he knew that Lu Zhixu must be in the room right now and wouldn't answer it.

The fact is that Lu Zhixu is indeed in his room, and he is reading the Codex.Memorizing these rules and regulations can make him feel calm. He is definitely the teacher who is most familiar with the law code in the entire law school except Xu Xu.

For him, memorizing the Dharma Code is like an old monk counting the beads in his hand, it is for self-cultivation.

However, a phone call from Xia Chen broke his success.

"Is it teacher?" The young man's voice was very clear.

"Say."

"I'm going to stay at a friend's house tonight, and I may not be able to go back. Teacher, go to bed first, don't wait for me."

"Understood." After Lu Zhixu finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone, and added coldly: "I didn't wait for you."

In the guest room of the Li family, Xia Chen smiled like a fox at the hung up phone.

Would a person as smart as the teacher make the mistake of superimposing on the snake?

At four o'clock in the afternoon, there was a small conflict in the Lu family.

The reason is that Professor Lu Zhixu played cartoons for Baby Lu Jiaming, flipped through the discs and laughed at Baby Lu for being childish, and finally found an animated film by Dreamworks for the baby to watch, but the baby pursed his mouth and refused, Professor Lu sneered: "Don't watch it. Don't watch it." I switched to an original English movie and started watching it.

The baby can only read Pinyin, but not English, so he looked at it aggrievedly for a while, then climbed downstairs silently by himself, ready to see the vegetables he had grown.

Just at this moment, an arrogant trumpet sounded outside the garden.

Little friend Li Xiu drove a YOYO car, carrying a bare flower pot, and appeared at the door of Lu's house.

"Lu Jiaming, come here quickly."

The baby ran over obediently.

Li Xiaoyan moved the bare flower pot from the car and placed it at the garden gate.

"What is this?" The baby was very curious.

"The potted flower you gave me is dead." Xiao Yan Wang finished speaking casually, seeing the baby's eyes instantly filled with water vapor, and said impatiently: "Why are you so stupid, I lied to you."

Lu Baobao looked bewildered: "Why did you lie to me?"

"You are so deceitful." Li Xiu said confidently.

The baby pursed his mouth again.

"I planted this potted flower. Although it hasn't germinated yet, the seeds are very expensive. You have to take good care of it, don't be tricked by others, and don't lose it. Do you hear me?" Li Xiu said to himself. ordered.

The baby squatted down, looked suspiciously at the flower pot that was obviously only filled with soil, stretched out his hand through the gap on the iron door, poked the soil in the flower pot, and asked in a low voice: "Then what if you lose it?"

Li Xiu couldn't be bothered by this question, he only thought about it for a while, and then he answered very assertively: "If you lose it, just buy another pot."
