Peony Overlord [Rebirth]

Ah Lei walked beside Chu Xinle, staring at him all the time, his whole body tensed up, for fear that the bastard would escape halfway, he was ready to catch him.

Chu Xinle was indescribably docile, she lowered her head and lowered her eyes, following Ah Lei closely, and caught a glimpse of her way out of the corner of her eye.

It has to be said that Shi Zhenming's courtyard is not a little bit bigger than his own, or else he is a legitimate son, with a noble status, and even the place where he lives is the first.

When he arrived at the place, Ah Lei opened the door and motioned for Chu Xinle to go in first. Chu Xinle was obedient, and as soon as he stepped in, he heard a loud bang, the door was slammed shut, and then Ah Lei came from the outside. The sound of locking.

"..."

Why does the Shi family always like to lock the door?

"You're pretty good at it." The person arrived before the voice appeared, and Chu Xinle saw a figure coming out from the curtain next to him. It was Shi Jiaming's eldest brother, Shi Zhenming.

"Brother." Chu Xinle greeted respectfully.

Perhaps Shi Jiaming was too stubborn in the past and never greeted Shi Zhenming, but now seeing Chu Xinle greet him like this, he was stunned for a moment, then reacted with a cold snort, and said in a nasal voice full of disdain: "My dear brother, You know I'm your big brother."

Chu Xinle realized that the two of them were not the only ones in the room. In the darkness on both sides, there must be someone from Shi Zhenming waiting there, holding a knife handle, waiting for Shi Zhenming to give an order, and they would suddenly appear in front of him Give him some pain.

"Of course I know, it is said that brothers are united, how could the younger brother not recognize the eldest brother." He seemed to know nothing on his face, and his appearance was well-behaved, appearing humble and flattering in front of Shi Zhenming.

"Then you, his grandma, are sowing discord in Yanxiang Building!" The words were almost yelled out, and just as the words fell, the sound of swords being drawn around exploded in Chu Xinle's ears, and the six people dressed as guards spontaneously He jumped left and right, surrounded Chu Xinle, and pointed his sword at him.

Sure enough, I guessed right...

The sharp blade was very close to Chu Xinle, and the cold air on the blade was almost pressing towards him. Chu Xinle became even colder, and the hairs on his face stood up. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, smiled flatteringly, and said, "Brother, you... ..what is this for..."

"I want you to remember." Shi Zhenming approached step by step, his eyes were cold and sharp, Chu Xinle felt that his eyes were exactly the same as Shi Enze's.

"Even if you come up, so what. I am the son-in-law, and I will have the final say on the entire Shi family in the future. If I want to kill you, it's easy." Shi Zhenming lowered his voice, like a poisonous snake lowering his body before preying on it.

Do you dare to kill me...

Chu Xinle narrowed her eyes, seeing Shi Zhenming's appearance about to explode, she murmured in her heart.

Shi Zhenming didn't dare to kill him, and it was impossible to kill him. When Shi Jiaming escaped, Shi Enze gave Shi Zhenming a whip, and Chu Xinle understood that Shi Enze wanted to keep Shi Jiaming. I never thought of giving Shi Zhenming the power of the Shi family, and Shi Jiaming is a sharp weapon used to contain Shi Zhenming. If Shi Zhenming kills him, it will confirm his conspiracy. Absolutely will not let him go.

However, it is not ruled out that Shi Zhenming is impatient and could really kill him on impulse before going to kill his father.

Chu Xinle clenched the hidden weapon in his sleeve tightly. It took him half a month to polish it with those copper hairpins, but in front of these swords, his fine needles were nothing more than wheat awns, and he would never get them back if he fought hard. any sweetness.

"Brother, what you said is like a bright mirror in my heart." Chu Xinle smiled with affectionate eyes, facing Shi Zhenming's face with absolute piety and respect, he wanted to treat the person in front of him as the sun , said softly: "I'm helping you, and I've always been on your side, big brother."

Shi Zhenming raised his eyebrows, disbelief flashed in his eyes, as if he heard some big joke, he said, "Shi Jiaming, do you believe me?"

"Father promoted me because he wanted a check and balance, the check and balance of the five great families, and the check and balance of the Shifu. I, a bastard, can sit on an equal footing with your elder brother. It's thanks to my elder brother. I know how to write the word "enqing". In my heart, I want to give it back to you, big brother." He is good at deceiving people with his eyes and mouth, and if he is not careful, he will fall into the trap dug by this fox, whether it is a snake or some other beast, As long as he is on the ground, he can always be set.

"Do you really want to repay the kindness, or do you want me to let you go?" Shi Zhenming asked.

Chu Xinle's smile deepened, and he said: "I followed my elder brother just to save my life, man, what you say about righteousness and Lingran is false, but the kindness is true, I want elder brother to save my life , is also true."

"Oh?" Shi Zhenming seemed to be interested, raised his eyebrows to look at him, and asked, "Is father's nurturing affection not counted as kindness?"

"Nurturing is of course a kindness. I have done my best for my father. How long will he have left when he is old? One has to think for oneself, as my elder brother just said, you are the son of the Shi family, all the members of the Shi family , I will leave it to you in the future, I am a bastard, I know I can't fight, so why not climb up this big tree of yours to enjoy the shade." Chu Xinle raised her finger to caress the blade in front of her, it was extremely sharp Just touching the blade cut Chu Xinle's fingertips to bloody wounds, and the pain and numbness spread from his fingertips. He put the bloody fingertips in his mouth, and the bitter and bloody smell spread.

"Shi Jiaming, I can't see that your heart is cruel enough." Shi Zhenming narrowed his eyes, raised his hand to stroke his beard, and his murderous intent was even stronger.

"Brother, when my father brought me up, he put all his thoughts on the bright side. From the beginning to the end, my father never considered asking my elder brother to take over the Shi family. You have worked so hard for so many years, and you have married him Yi, this matter is not cost-effective no matter how you think about it, my father wants me to hold you, but he never imagined that I will be your stepping stone to assist you...Brother, this matter is the most cost-effective."

"You can even sell your own biological father, how would I know, am I the next Shi Enxuan?" After he weighed the pros and cons, Shi Zhenming's killing intent wavered from side to side, but he was obviously not completely at ease. .

"Brother, my surname is Shi. Since I belong to the Shi family, this fate is naturally in the hands of the head of the Shi family. If the elder brother doesn't trust me, he can kill me with a single sword." The closest blade was extremely sharp. In the blink of an eye, Chu Xinle felt a tingling pain in his palm. The warmth flowed from his palm, and the blood flowed to the tip of his nose. He exerted force on his arm, shortening and lengthening the distance between himself and the blade. The slender neck leaned over.

The guard with the knife didn't know what to do, didn't understand what was going on in his master's mind, didn't know whether to kill or keep, and for a moment he followed Chu Xinle's movements and took a step forward.

The ice blade wiped Chu Xinle's neck, and the familiar pain quickly spread from the neck, the pain in the palm of the hand and the pain on the neck were indistinguishable, harder, harder——

The sword was opened, and Shi Zhenming kicked the guard's waist. The clear sound of bone cracking made Nuoda's room look bleak and horrifying. His throat seemed to be broken, and it hurt even to swallow saliva.

The blood left a knife from his throat, and it looked strangely beautiful from his fair skin.

"Let me just believe you." Shi Zhenming approached step by step, without even looking at the twitching person who was knocked to the ground by him, seeing the blood on Chu Xinle's neck, with restraint in his eyes, he said: " Shi Jiaming, if you dare to lie to me..."

"No, big brother." Chu Xin smiled happily, raised her hand to touch the blood on her neck nonchalantly, the blood on her palm couldn't stop dripping down her fingertips: "Second Brother and you will always be of the same mind."

Chen Fan came back not long after Chu Xinle was invited, and when he heard Qingzhu Yulian say that the young master hadn't come back, he began to feel uneasy.

The young master doesn't have many friends outside, if he doesn't come back at this hour, he must be entangled by someone.

Shi Zhenming......

Chenfan was restless and didn't know whether he should look for him. Seeing his restless appearance, Qingzhu asked, "Chenfan, what are you doing? You haven't been honest since you came back."

Yulian also noticed something was wrong, she frowned and said nothing.

Chen Fan wanted to say it, but seeing that the two girls didn't seem to know anything, he could figure out that the young master definitely didn't want to disturb the two of them by telling these bad things, so he closed his open mouth and just let out a sigh.

Qingzhu couldn't figure it out for a while, and in a blink of an eye, he saw a black figure coming out of the semi-circular arch, after a closer look, he realized that it was his young master, and he shouted happily: "Young master!"

Chu Xinle held an umbrella, the rain at this time was not as heavy as before, and the hair was so moist that it would only cause a layer of damp when it hit her body.

"Why are the three of you outside? You don't even know how to hold the umbrella, what if it gets wet?" Chu Xinle showed sullen expression, put the umbrella in Yulian's hand, and ordered: "You two go first Change into dry clothes in the room and turn on the hot water."

Qingzhu wanted to ask something, but was dragged away by Yulian with an umbrella.

"You come in with me." Chu Xinle took a look at Chen Fan and walked into the room.

The room was damp and cold, the oil lamp was lit, and it took a while to dry out the room. Chu Xinle poured a cup of hot tea and finished it slowly. She felt blood flow from her stiff limbs and gradually warmed up. Then she asked: "Is everything done?"

Chen Fan nodded and stood aside. He had never held an umbrella when he went out, his meticulously tied high ponytail was wet from the rain, and his broken hair stuck to his cheeks, showing a bit lonely.

He didn't move, looked at Chu Xin, hesitant to speak, the question kept on his lips.

"I want to ask if I was kidnapped by Shi Zhenming?" Chu Xinle spoke out for him.

Dust of the world's thoughts were seen through, his face remained calm, but his ears turned red.

"That boy..."

"How did you come out?" Chu Xinle then looked up at him. It was too dark outside to see anything just now, but now there is an oil lamp in the house, and Chen Fan could see the scar on Chu Xinle's neck at a glance. The mark was not short , The wound has been solidified, but the surrounding soft flesh is bullied, like an inappropriate touch of heavy color on a clean white paper, it is ugly to death.

Chen Fan just opened his mouth and closed it again, he found that the young master even understood what he was thinking better than himself, so he simply stopped talking.

"He needs someone who will work hard and listen to his instructions, and I need a backer." Chu Xinle poured another cup of hot tea, held it in her hand, and did not move.

Hearing what he said, Chen Fan's thoughts became even more confused, this person was far stronger than he appeared on the outside, even cunning, Chen Fan couldn't figure out what he was going to do.

"But isn't the young master at odds with him? Can he easily trust the young master?" Chen Fan asked.

It was raining heavily outside again, and the curled-up eaves were dripping rainwater downwards, making an annoying noise.

The teacup in his hand cooled down, taking away the heat in Chu Xinle's hand, and the edge of the palm of his hand felt like a burning pain. He put the teacup on the table, held his fingers regardless of the pain, covered the wound, and said expressionlessly: "Shi Enze made it clear to suppress Shi Zhenming, but Shi Zhenming is not a wimp who is willing to be bullied. His character has completely inherited Shi Enze, mortal." Chu Xinle gently rubbed the rim of the cup with her fingertips, Laughing, with the unique laziness of a fox, he said: "One mountain cannot contain two tigers, and the flood cannot be stopped. If you suppress it too hard, the resistance will become more violent..."

He knew that I was not easy to control, but he still chose to trust me.

Chu Xinle's smile faded, she lowered her eyes to look at the tea in the cup, a shadow appeared from her thick long eyelashes, a piece of tea floated in the tea, she fought desperately, but still sank into the bottom of the cup.

Besides me, who can he rely on, Xing Yanhong?

Chu Xinle narrowed her eyes, staring at the tea leaves at the bottom of the cup.

He doesn't believe it himself.
