Candy cubes crackling

During this season, major events happened one after another in Tianjin, and a strange atmosphere of turmoil gradually emerged.At this time when everyone was in distress, only Miura Xinjiu held the weight in his hand and smiled happily in the Japanese mansion.

Lu Liuyun turned his back to him calmly, stayed silently in the room and played the role of a lunatic alone, secretly brewing an escape.

The days passed slowly, and two months later, Miura Xinjiu secretly booked a boat ticket to Japan for Lu Liuyun.

He felt that he had already done what he should do in China. Although he failed to arrest Wuyue Prefecture to take the blame, but the rumors were released and he was cleared of his suspicions.The most urgent thing is to take Lu Liuyun by his side and settle down properly, and he can make some plans for other things.

However, just a week before he was about to leave, he received a call from the consulate. Eiichi Sanada relayed the "family instructions" with a smiling face on the other end. Miura Shinjiu frowned and had to temporarily put the trip on hold.

He never expected that the "sister-in-law-to-be" who had broken off the engagement would take the initiative to visit her as his fiancée.

This incident happened really suddenly, and now the outside world thinks that the noble lady of the Aoki family who lost her fiancé has gone to England to heal her wounds.Little did he know that President Aoki had other ideas. He had chosen the eldest son of the Miura family for his daughter, Kotoori, in order to form alliances and consolidate the interests of the business circle.

But now that Furo Miura died, President Aoki's wishful thinking was in vain. After he was heartbroken, he learned from the pain, and after a quick brainstorm, he thought that this family lost the eldest son and had a second son. In order to minimize the loss of profits , he decisively pulled back his daughter who was halfway there to arrange a blind date.

And Miura Donghui, based on his selfishness towards his second son, believes that if Miura Shinjiu marries Aoki Kotoori, it will help him gain a firm foothold in the family in the future.Therefore, as soon as President Aoki opened his mouth, he shook hands with him almost at the same time.

The fathers on both sides hit it off, the only regret is the juniors who are worried, and among them, Aoki Qinzhi is even more embarrassing.Ms. Aoki received Western-style education abroad since she was a child. Seeing that her own concept of freedom ran counter to family morality after returning to China, she begged her father for no mercy, so she had to wipe her tears and set foot on the long distance to China under the escort of bodyguards.

The salty waves beat against the bulkhead of the cruise ship all the time, and Kotoori Aoki, who was sleepless all night, dreamed of her fiancé who died young the night before arriving on land.She and Furo Miura do not have the deep fate of childhood sweethearts, and it is said that they only met once at family gatherings when they were young.But just because of that look, she was always glad that she would become Fuuro Miura's future wife.

On the other side, Miura Xinjiu, who has been reluctant to leave to meet the blind date, reluctantly began to prepare under Hiroseto's persuasion.The two of them went out with great fanfare, but they didn't expect to be in vain when they arrived at the pier. Miss Aoki had already arranged the place to stay.

Miura Shinjiu came back puzzled, until Sanada Eiichi called and found out that Aoki Kotoori had a business cousin in Tianjin. Therefore, when he arrived, he stayed at the house of this cousin Aoki.

The two parties cleverly avoided the embarrassing first meeting, and after silently making sufficient psychological preparations, they finally set a date to meet.In order to make up for the "farewell without saying goodbye" that landed last time, Aoki Kotoori wanted to take the initiative to visit.After Miura Xinjiu hung up the phone, just to be on the safe side, he went upstairs and locked Lu Liuyun into the room.

Not long after, there was a crisp whistle sound at the gate of the Japanese mansion, and Aoki Kotoori got out of the car wearing a light brown woolen skirt.Lu Liuyun hid behind the curtains on the second floor, watching the strange young female guest enter the house all the way, very curious in his heart.If the door of the guest bedroom hadn't been locked, he would have stood on the stairs to see what Miura Shinjiu was up to.

The blind date of this formal meeting went on for most of the afternoon. Miura Shinjiu and Aoki Kotoori sat on both sides of the sofa, and played out all the carefully prepared polite remarks while talking and laughing.He knew that the marriage with Aoki Kotoori was an olive branch given to him by his father. For the current Miura Shinjiu, if he sacrificed a little ego to be linked with interests and reap status and wealth, it would not be a bad idea.

And Aoki Kotoori looked at Miura Shinku's quiet eyes like sitting on pins and needles, and all the shadows of Miura Furou flashed in his mind.In the end, she found a far-fetched reason to decline Miura Xinjiu's dinner invitation, and fled from the Japanese mansion with the bodyguard team outside the house.

It's a pity that the cousin in Tianjin had been entrusted by President Aoki in advance, and he personally represented his brother to keep a close eye on his niece's movements.Aoki Qinzhi was nagged earnestly by his uncle for two days, and was kicked out of the house again because of the pressure.And every weekend, every time I have to be a guest under the door of Miura Shinku.

On the day when the engagement matter was put on the agenda, it happened that Kotoori Aoki's trip was unlucky, and Miura Shinhisa was called out of the house in advance by Sanada Yongyi one by one.Then Aoki Kotoori, who arrived at the Japanese mansion, sat on the sofa downstairs and sucked the red nose tip with relief.

After Lu Liuyun knew she was coming, he stood at the stairs and looked down.The maid who was sweeping the second floor wiped her wet hands on her apron, and softly dissuaded him in half-baked Chinese, "Lu-san, there are guests at home today, don't go down and run around."

Seeing that he was being watched closely, Lu Liuyun didn't make a sound, and started to walk towards the bedroom with his head drooping sullenly.He has already learned from the gossip of the servants that Aoki Kotoori has an interest relationship with the Miura family, and these days he has been looking for an opportunity to deliberately show up in front of her.Lu Liuyun knows that pretending to be crazy is not a long-term solution, and this house is full of Miura Shinjiu's eyeliner, he must find a strong springboard to ensure that he can escape successfully.

Thinking of this, Lu Liuyun became ruthless, raised his hand and knocked the glass on the table to the ground, and stepped on the fragments with his bare feet, a blur of bright red.The servant woman who was guarding outside heard the movement in the guest bedroom, and hurriedly dropped her work and ran in to check.At that time, Lu Liuyun had already stepped on a small blood mark on the ground, the maid covered her mouth and let out an exclamation, and hurriedly ran to the storage room to find the medicine box.Lu Liuyun took advantage of this loophole, sloppily wrapped the wound on his feet with gauze, and before the maid came back, he limped down the stairs holding the handle of the stairs.

Aoki Qinzhi was sitting alone in the living room drinking tea, and from the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a thin figure swaying down from upstairs, she was secretly surprised, and couldn't help but stare blankly at Lu Liuyun on the sofa.

"you……"

"Hush." ​​Lu Liuyun saw that Qing Muqin was about to make a sound, so he raised his index finger to his lips, signaling her not to act rashly.Oddly enough, Aoki Kotoori actually complied with his wishes and sat silently on the sofa without saying a word.When both of them came to their senses, Lu Liuyun scratched his forehead embarrassingly, pointed to the stairs, and motioned for her to walk with him.

Aoki Kotoori hesitated for a while wringing her fingers, and finally got up from the sofa and followed her. Her intuition told her that the young man standing in front of her might reveal some mysteries about the Miura family.Lu Liuyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Qingmu Qinzhi follow him upstairs.The servant's footsteps came from downstairs, Lu Liuyun anxiously gestured to Qingmu Qinzhi, and the two walked up the attic slowly with light steps.

"Sir, it should be convenient to reveal your identity now, right?" Qing Mu Qinzhi closed the wooden door of the attic, leaned on the door frame and said to Lu Liuyun.

"Miss Aoki, time is precious, I think it's better to talk about the gentleman you care about first." Lu Liuyun stood with his back against the wall, struggling to untangle the loose gauze stuck to the bottom of his feet, and turned to Aoki Qinzhi He paused word by word, "The accidental death of Furo Miura in China should be said to be a premeditated family assassination."

Qingmu Qinzhi heard Lu Liuyun mention her true love, suddenly raised her head, with tears in her eyes, she looked at him in disbelief.Lu Liuyun lowered his head and took a deep breath, then slowly added, "Miss Aoki, I know that it is difficult for a stranger's one-sided words to be convincing, if you don't mind, I will continue to talk."

Aoki Qinzhi tightly clenched the corners of her sleeves with both hands, making her knuckles turn white.After a while, she covered her mouth and sobbed silently, then nodded to Lu Liuyun.

Half an hour later, Miura Shinjiu returned home. As soon as he entered the living room, he saw Aoki Kotoori sitting on the sofa in a daze, his eyes were wet, and the tip of his nose was slightly red, as if he had just cried.Puzzled in his heart, he walked up and asked concerned, "Qinzhi, what's wrong with you?"

"Oh, I accidentally fell asleep on the sofa when I was waiting for you just now, maybe... maybe I was frozen, it doesn't matter." Seeing that Miura Shinjiu was getting closer and closer to her, Aoki Kotoori subconsciously moved to the side He moved his position a bit, raised the back of his hand pretending to be calm and touched his cheek, and made a look of fatigue just waking up from a big dream.

Miura Shinjiu saw that something was wrong with her, so he sat down on the sofa next to Aoki Kotoori, and asked seemingly unintentionally, "When did you come in the afternoon, have you been waiting here for a long time?"

"It didn't take long." Aoki Kotoori quietly put one hand behind his back, clenched the corner of his clothes, and forced a smile, so that Miura Shinjiu would not notice his strangeness.In fact, what she said was true. She had just heard the sound of a car's horn outside, and she ran down from the attic in a hurry. Lu Liuyun was only halfway through what she had said, so she didn't have enough time.

"Let's stay and have dinner together today, so we can get engaged..." Before Miura Shinji could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Aoki Kotoori, "Miura-kun, I haven't read the telegram from my father this morning. , Maybe... maybe it's about the engagement, I'll go back and have a look before discussing it with you."

Aoki Kotoori lowered his head and looked away from him, his palms were covered with sweat.

"Oh, that's it." After hearing this, Miura Shinjiu didn't want to keep her anymore, after a little thought, he turned to Aoki Kotoori and said courteously, "Alright, fathers are always more thoughtful, so I'll drive you off now Let's go back."

At this moment, Aoki Kotoori really wanted to be alone for a while, but Miura Xinjiu had brought up this point, and it was really inconvenient for her to shirk, so she could only calm down and nodded to him while resisting the panic in her heart.

Miura Shinjiu turned to get the car keys, and when he passed the door, he signaled Hiroseto, who had parked the car, to go upstairs to check the situation.Aoki Kotoori followed him out of the gate with complicated emotions, and kept thinking back to what Lu Liuyun said to himself before going downstairs, "Do me a favor, I will make public the real murderer of Furo Miura for you."

At that time, Lu Liuyun was looking for information in the study on the second floor.The last time he hid outside the door and eavesdropped on the conversation between Miura Shinku and Hiroseto, he already knew that the killing of Miura Furo had nothing to do with them.Now, in order to get out with Aoki Kotoori's power, he had to take the risk and sneak into Miura Shinhisa's study to find evidence.

Lu Liuyun groped around the table and cabinet for a while, but did not see any useful clues.Just as he was standing in front of the desk anxiously, he kicked his foot inadvertently and made a muffled sound.He looked down and found that Miura Shinji had installed a safe under the table.Lu Liuyun's eyes lit up, and regardless of the injury on his foot, he fell down on his knees with a thud, and began to tinker with the safe.

Fortunately, only a digital lock was installed on the safe, and no other mechanisms were added.Lu Liuyun dialed a few numbers casually, put his ear up to listen for the sensitivity, and found that the difficulty was too great, so he began to pick specific numbers to test.He entered Miura Xinjiu's degree number, the phone number of the Japanese residence, and even entered his own birthday but failed to open the safe.

The sound of footsteps stepping up the stairs was faintly heard outside. Lu Liuyun wiped the hot sweat from his forehead, lay down on the ground and held his breath, and re-entered a series of numbers.In an instant, there was only a slight click of the lock bolt being released from the hole, and the door of the safe bounced out.Lu Yunliu smiled wryly, the password number set by Miura Xinjiu turned out to be the date of the first day he was trapped here.

The footsteps outside were getting closer and closer, Lu Liuyun frowned, and without thinking too much, he pulled out all the file bags inside.At this time, Hiroseto, who was outside the study door, unscrewed the door handle calmly, poked his head in to take a look, and found that there was nothing unusual in the room, and closed the door with confidence.

Lu Liuyun hid under the table and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He sat flat on the ground, randomly took out a form from the file bag, browsed it carefully, and then quietly rolled all the papers inside into his arms.The amount of information contained in these documents is really too large, he would not take it for nothing, since he had the opportunity, he should take it all away.
