not in love

Chapter 69 Slap

Lin Xie joined the crew after returning to China from Glensu, and thus began a busy acting career.

But it didn't take long before he saw that Mr. Yu who made him miss him again in an event. What was even more unexpected to him was that Mr. Yu already had a man named Chen Hao by his side.

After talking to Yu Zhiyi for a few words, Lin Xie realized that he was not the person he met in Gransu. After some investigation, he found out that they were a pair of twin brothers living in two countries.

In view of Zhijuan's face, Lin Xie has always maintained a friendly attitude towards Zhiyi, helping whenever he can, but he did not expect his friendliness to be used by Zhou Huihui, which eventually contributed to the shirt door incident that dragged down Zhiyi.

In the last few months when Yu Zhiyi was sent to the hospital by Chen Hao, Lin Xie could have taken him away if he wanted to, and let him receive regular psychological counseling and treatment, but he chose indifferently and viciously because of some selfishness. stood by.

He thought that Yu Zhiyi had been murdered like this, his brother would definitely come back to fight for him.

Lin Xie didn't expect that he underestimated the viciousness of Zhou Huihui and Chen Hao. He didn't wait for Yu Zhijuan to return to China, but he received the news that Yu Zhiyi fell from a building and was dying.

He didn't even expect that Yu Zhiyi would miraculously wake up a month later, and even start participating in activities soon.

Lin Xie deliberately created many encounters, and soon confirmed Yu Zhijuan's identity, and Yu Zhijuan failed to recognize him as expected.

It doesn't matter if they don't know each other, Lin Xie thought, Han Yunren was the one who was rejected, and he can start over.Yu Zhijuan said that he doesn't believe in love at first sight, so let Han Yunren, who fell in love at first sight, become a pile of ashes left in the past like the bunch of roses.

"Master, Lu Yuan has already sent Mr. Yu home."

Lu Yao knocked on the door.

After Leslie's death, neither Lin Xie nor Governor Lin had ever entered the study and bedroom she used to use. Lin Xi didn't know about Leslie's affairs, so she dragged Lin Xie in hastily today. Now let Lin Xie alone He stayed inside for a long time without any movement. He was worried that Lin Xie would be sad when he saw things and thought about others.

"Before he left, Mrs. Tan stuffed a bento into his arms, saying it was baked waffles and eggs, but I didn't stop him."

Lu Yao reported one by one that he didn't want Lin Xie to be obsessed with investigating Leslie's death. Now it seems that only Yu Zhiyi can temporarily divert his attention.

"Let her go."

It was rare for Lin Xie not to show an unavoidable distaste for Tan Chaolu, anyway, she was trying to treat Zhijuan well.

Besides, due to his tired guard, he would not enter those things.

"Then what do you want for breakfast? I'll help you prepare it."

"A cup of Yirgacheffe, delivered to my room in 15 minutes."

Lin Xie barely slept the night before, and now he has no appetite.

He noticed a thin layer of dust accumulated on the blinds, so he opened the curtains, and a large amount of sunlight leaked into the room, with the dry glare unique to winter. Lin Xie frowned slightly, and suddenly looked at the scene opposite the window. Startled.

"Inthedark blue sky you keep, for you never ever shut your eyes"

The nursery rhyme Leslie had sung when she was alive began to echo vaguely in his head.

Yu Zhijuan said that many domestic versions will translate the first half of the lyrics as "look at my face through the curtain".

Leslie jumped down from the rooftop on the fourth floor directly above this study, and the last scene she saw should be the same as what she saw from the window of the study.

It was a three-story European-style fort-shaped building. It was originally used to make the mansion look more like Leslie's hometown. Later, it seemed to be used as a security booth, but it was scrapped and locked the gate ten years ago. , the Lin family does not lack this place.

Look at my face through the curtains...

Lin Xie pushed open the window and looked up, only to see that there happened to be a small window on the third floor of the small building opposite, and the sky blue curtains inside the window had been covered with a layer of gray.

Before Leslie died, was there someone there who witnessed her death...?

"Boom boom boom——"

The study door was knocked from the outside again, Lin Xie quickly closed the shutters, and opened the door pretending nothing happened.

Outside the door stood a panting Lu Yuan and a worried Tan Chaolu.

"Master, the obituary was released in Zhou Huihui's studio just now, do you want to take a look?"

Lu Yuan handed over the tablet, his brother took care of Yu Zhiyi at home, and he was in charge of arranging operations and public relations with the brokerage company, guiding all negative public opinion on Chen Hao according to Lin Xie's request.

"Has the cause of death been ascertained?"

"It was said that it was an accident. His leg was a prosthesis. The studio issued a statement saying that it was raining and the ground was slippery. He slipped and fell while relaxing on the rooftop and died."

"What did the Public Security Bureau say?"

"It's the same tone as Zhou Huihui's studio. It seems that he intends to calm the matter. I inquired about it and said that the hotel camera only captured him walking up to the roof alone, and he jumped down in a daze. It was very evil, so the police I don't want to investigate further. Besides, the camera clearly showed that he jumped off by himself, so it was directly classified as suicide."

"What about the surveillance in other places? Who did he contact before going to the rooftop?"

Of course, Lin Xie didn't believe that Zhou Huihui would jump off the building. How could a femme fatale who had just mastered the secrets of Chen Hao and Yu Zhiyi at the same time and could take revenge on both of them suddenly say suicide and commit suicide.

"That night, all the stars lived in the hotel. The lounge, the venue, and the cameras were all turned off to protect the privacy of the guests, so nothing else was captured,"

Lu Yuan paused,

"Master, I personally don't think it was a homicide. According to the description of the police, it is very likely that he took too many drugs and made a wrong foot, which caused the accident. Otherwise, their studio would not be in a hurry to close the case and run away. "

"The control over drugs is so strict now, with Zhou Huihui's contacts and financial resources, do you think he can get the goods?"

"He disappeared in the past few months, maybe he got addicted to hiding abroad?"

Lu Yuan speculated.

In the past ten years, the country has severely cracked down on drug trafficking and manufacturing activities. Up to now, no matter what kind of drug it is, it is difficult to get it. Even if there is a way, the things are sold at sky-high prices.

More than ten years ago, many addicts could still afford the initial purchase of small doses, but now the situation is quite different. The price of each gram of drugs is close to skyrocketing. Find a way to get and sell even a small bag, and you can live comfortably for years.

So Zhou Huihui's fall was not an accident.

"Now that the case is closed, let it be."

Lin Xie is not in a hurry to find out the murderer's fox tail. Since that person's goal is Yu Zhijuan, there will be another time after this first time. If he is really a murderous lunatic, he is willing to wait for that The madman cleans up Chen Hao for Yu Zhijuan.

"That, Lin Xie,"

Tan Chaolu waited for a long time before finally being able to speak,

"No one has been in this study for a long time. Lin Xi is not sensible. She doesn't know what it was used for before. You...don't be angry with her."

"You care too much about her, do you want her to be as cautious as you at home in the future?"

Lin Xie didn't enjoy Tan Chaolu's respect for him.

"That was not what I meant……"

"You have stayed at home for a long time, do you know what the tower opposite is used for?"

"……what?"

Tan Chaolu was stunned for two seconds before shaking his head firmly,

"It's just for decoration. It's a small warehouse now, but it's never been used."

"Lu Yuan, do you know?"

Lin Xie looked at Lu Yuan again.

"Me? I don't remember any use for that small building. No one has ever entered it."

Lu Yuan scratched his head.

But Lin Xie could tell that both of them were lying.

He didn't even hope to ask anything. Except for him and Lin Xi, who knew nothing, everyone in this family had reached a tacit agreement, and never said anything that shouldn't be said.

"Why did the young master suddenly remember to ask that?"

"Curious moment,"

Lin Xie smiled bluntly,

"Remember the catering company that Chen Hao is running now?"

"Remember, what is Mr. Chen, right?"

Lu Yuan nodded, waiting for Lin Xie to give instructions.

"I heard that I found a financing partner recently, so I tried to find out who would invest in his project without having a good eye."

"It's easy,"

Lu Yuan patted his chest,

"Speaking of Chen Hao, I remembered that the manager with the old combed hair booked you a guest spot on a reality show..."

"Didn't Lin Xie never participate in variety shows?"

Tan Chaolu interrupted.

"I know,"

Lu Yuan explained,

"But this time is quite special. It is said that Chen Hao is also fighting for a place, and he wants two more. The gossip says that he wants to take Yu Zhiyi with him."

"Is it an emotional variety show?"

Lin Xie raised his eyebrows,

"Ask who is the sponsor, it doesn't matter if this show is not filmed."

"No no no no,"

Lu Yuan found out the program planning book on his mobile phone,

"It's a type I've never seen before, anyway, why don't you see it for yourself? I got the news that Chen Hao and his wife will go, and I thought you might be interested."

Lin Xie took his mobile phone and saw two dazzling black words printed on the cover of the planner: FreedomEleven.

Does this mean that a total of eleven guests will participate?

"Freedom Eleven?"

Yu Zhijuan put down the chopsticks in his hand, and looked at Chen Hao across the table with a sleepy expression.

After Chen Hao welcomed him home, he didn't even dare to ask him where he went last night. In addition, his complexion was not good. His heart seemed to be broken into two pieces. Before, half of it was given to Zhou Huihui and the other to Yu Zhiyi. , Now it is half distressed and half shocked.

"Yes, it was planned by several well-known overseas directors, and a professional PD advisory group was also invited to prepare to win next year's broadcast hegemony."

In order to make his wife happy, Chen Hao once again cooked a large table of dishes with his own hands.

Yu Zhijuan happened to be too lazy to talk to him, seeing his cautious look, he simply pretended to be sulking, and stopped pretending to be intimate when he spoke, which made Chen Hao terrified.

"My personality is not suitable for a reality show,"

Yu Zhijuan paused,

"The last time I finished recording the program, I was violently attacked by Zhou Huihui's fan network, saying that I deliberately pushed him into the pile of building blocks and hurt his waist."

"Zhiyi... I was an asshole before,"

Chen Hao lowered his eyes, and slapped himself as if hating himself for not being up to date.

"I can compensate you any way you want. Zhou Huihui is dead, and he won't disturb our life anymore. From now on, you will be the only one by my side. Let's forget him together, okay?"

Chen Hao wanted to take Yu Zhijuan's hand lightly, but was dodged quietly.

He thought that this loud slap would soften the heart of his beloved wife, but he didn't know that Yu Zhijuan only coldly disliked him for not hitting hard enough.
