"Confession in a hurry, the success rate is very low," Chen Shen said helplessly, "Could it be that if you like someone, you will just rush forward?"

"Why not..." Lin Huai was worried about Jiang Ke, he didn't think about it, but for some reason, Chen Shen suddenly appeared in his mind, he hesitated for a moment.

"If you think about it carefully, you will find that it is not feasible, right?"

"But I think," Lin Huai looked up at Chen Shen, "she has been with him for so long, does she know nothing about whether he likes her or not? You should be able to judge whether the boy likes her or not. You have not acted for a long time, isn't it because you judge that Jiang Ke's adopted son has no feelings for girls. Since the probability of success is not high, it is better to maintain this secret love, at least you can keep it. Something that won't be broken."

Chen Shen didn't answer, just looked at him with thoughtful eyes, but Chen Shen's eyes made Lin Huai's heart skip a beat suddenly. There wouldn't be any misunderstanding about what he said...?

Just as he was worried, Chen Shen asked: "Is this also your view on love? It surprised me a little."

"...Why do you say that." Lin Huai remained calm, but in fact his heartbeat had already exceeded its normal speed. When facing Chen Shen, he was always nervous for no reason.

"I thought you would be a more direct type." Chen Shen bent down slightly and approached Lin Huai, "If you are sure that you like it, you will confess directly."

"...Maybe, if you like it enough." Lin Huai said without changing his face, he was already immune to Chen Shen's approach.

"Indeed, maybe it's because you don't like it enough." Chen Shen smiled.

Chen Shen seemed to have something in his words, but Lin Huai couldn't figure out what he meant. He looked at Chen Shen speechlessly, and Chen Shen was smiling. Instead, it became familiar, and even had a kind of cordial feeling.

"Enough is enough, I don't want to receive a lawyer's letter at home." Lin Huai ended the topic with these words.

Chen Shen cooperatively moved the topic elsewhere, and started chatting while eating, but Lin Huai was preoccupied. Although Chen Shen covered it up well, he paid too much attention to Chen Shen, so that he could notice the other party's details He always thought that Chen Shen had other purposes for Jiang Ke, even if the other party deliberately kept it from him, he still wanted to help Chen Shen.

"Chen Shen, Jiang Ke and I talked about the legend you mentioned earlier."

"When?" Chen Shen didn't ask what Jiang Ke said, but directly asked about the timeline.

"After you told me the specific content." Lin Huai said, he looked at Chen Shen, and Chen Shen also looked at him. Although Chen Shen looked calm in his eyes, they both knew what the time represented in their hearts, but He doesn't have the ability to accurately capture the meaning of it now, but Chen Shen is different, he can.

"Then... what did he say?"

"I asked him 'is this a story about family ambitions' and he said yes."

Chen Shen showed a surprised expression, which was unexpected by Lin Huai. He originally thought that Chen Shen should understand the meaning contained in it.

"Why do you think this is a story about family ambition?" Chen Shen asked.

"Because it's so obvious...?" Lin Huai frowned. A meaningless and cruel legend can be passed down from generation to generation. It must be meaningful. Since it is not a ghost story to scare people, then it should be a story passed down by the family. Some even adore the idea.

Chen Shen seemed to be lost in thought, and Lin Huai was surprised. He originally thought that he could know something about Jiang Ke, but now it seems that Chen Shen's reaction seemed to reveal something he didn't know.

"I understand." Chen Shen got the answer without thinking for too long, "You mean, this legendary son indirectly forced his parents to die in order to gain power in the family. In the inheritance of the story, this This spirit is actually eulogized. In order to gain rights, parents can be sacrificed, so it is a story about ambition. When I first heard it, I just thought it was a legend. It's really harmful."

Lin Huai didn't answer. Chen Shen said that compared to those legends about killing fathers and mothers, and having children with animals, this is indeed common. It's not surprising that he didn't realize it immediately. This story needs to be emotional. Vision, not rationality, Chen Shen observed the story from a young age, which was too rational.

"This story has been passed down to this day, that is to say, the family in the story should still exist." Chen Shen said, after realizing the key point, he only needs simple reasoning to get the answer.

Lin Huai looked at Chen Shen silently. He knew that Chen Shen came to the same conclusion as himself - the person who told Song Yun this story must be related to this family.

Now that foreign countries are involved, the direction of the investigation is much clearer. First of all, it is the people Song Yun met in the company's business with foreign countries. This is the most likely way for Song Yun to know this story. Her hobbies were told by people she met on the Internet, but no matter what kind, one thing can be confirmed, the person who told her the story should have a relatively close relationship with her, and this kind of small-scale spread of family stories is not suitable. He casually used it as a topic of conversation. Of course, it is not impossible for Song Yun to have a connection with this family, but the possibility is too small, and the possibility of indirect knowledge of this story is relatively high.

"Chen Shen, in exchange, can you tell me why you are so interested in this story?" Lin Huai asked, and he was also prepared to be rejected.

Who knew that Chen Shen was stunned for a moment, and he asked, "Didn't you tell me these things after you knew about it? Wen Li'an didn't tell you?"

Wen Li'an?Lin Huai immediately understood that Wen Li'an hadn't told him the truth, and his complexion was not very good: "So is there really something wrong with Song Yun's accident?" He asked Wen Li'an to investigate, but the other party told him There is no problem.

"I don't know either," Chen Shen said, "It's just my suspicion. She had a close relationship with a mysterious man at the time. After she passed away, that man seemed to have disappeared and never appeared again."

"And you don't know very well?" Lin Huai frowned. In his mind, Chen Shen was not such a careless person.

"..." Chen Shen didn't answer.

Seeing this, Lin Huai was afraid that he would hit Chen Shen's pain point, and the other party would regret why he hadn't been more careful at the time, so he changed the subject: "This story may also be meaningless, and it may not even be told by that 'mysterious man' .”

"It's even possible that this 'mysterious man' doesn't exist at all." Chen Shen said, he was surprised to see it, which surprised Lin Huai.

"So why did you tell me about this when you don't know what it means to me?" Chen Shen asked.

"I just had a gut feeling that you'd be interested."

"So you chose to tell me this matter without reservation and frankly even though you didn't understand the situation?" Chen Shen smiled.

What Chen Shen said sounded like he was laughing at his imprudence. Lin Huai frowned. In the end, it was not a big deal. It made no difference whether he said it or not. He really didn't want to see Chen Shen troubled. Naturally good.

"Huaihuai is so cute." Unexpectedly, Chen Shen suddenly said this. ? ?Although Lin Huai was taken aback, he had already gotten used to it. He frowned: "Are you laughing at me...?"

This cuteness is more like mocking. Lin Huai was aggressive at first, but he suddenly realized that he did this because he really had confidence, not because of his trust in Chen Shen. In fact, he knew very well that Chen Shen was an uncontrollable danger. As for the consequences, he doesn't care, he can bear it. When he thought of the theory of charity that Fang Shu accused him of, he suddenly shrank. In the end, Lin Huai didn't say a word. Said, turning his head to the side blankly.

Chen Shen had a panoramic view of all this. He didn't know what he thought of. He lowered his head slightly and smiled. Then he restrained his smile and answered.

"I am serious."

"..." Lin Huai's face became more indifferent, and he replied, "Thank you, you are also very cute."

"Does Huaihuai really think so? I'm so happy." Chen Shen smiled happily, and it looked like he was sincere.

Lin Huai choked, and decided not to compete with Chen Shen in this regard.
