Traitor and Concubine Quan

Seeing that she had a serious expression, but her eyes were as bright as water, Gu Lei was very moved. "Ask." He put away the veil and planned to return it to her after washing it, so that we could see each other again.

Ruan Xixi said solemnly, "You said that you saw Lin Pin and Yin Xinglu, and that you saw Zhu Rouer fall off the cliff and disappeared?"

Gu Lei's eyes darkened slightly, and he nodded slowly. "Yes, I did see Lin Pin and others leave after bullying Junior Sister Yin, and I also saw Zhu Rou'er fall down the waterfall."

"Since you saw it with your own eyes, why didn't you stop it then?"

"I saw it from afar, but it was too late to save me. I was one step too late!" Gu Lei said calmly and forcefully.

Ruan Xixi looked at his resolute and upright face, and seeing a kind of momentum in his eyes, she couldn't help being secretly startled and disappointed.What Gu Lei said was fundamentally inconsistent, full of mistakes and omissions!If he saw Zhu Rouer fall off the cliff with his own eyes, and Yin Xinglu was raped, within sight, if he rushed forward in time with his lightness kung fu, he would definitely catch Zhao Zong and Zhao Zhi two villains!If the distance is really too far as he said, how can we know it is them? !

She pursed her lower lip, remembering the scene where everyone accused Lin Pin at the martial arts conference, and what Lin Pin said at that time rang in her ears—"Xixi, I didn't do this...",

Ruan Xixi clenched her hands and asked, "You are so far away, why do you know that it is Lin Pin? You can't save Zhu Rou'er, they have already left when you rushed over, why can you identify them?"

A trace of panic flashed across Gu Lei's eyes, "Although I can't see their faces clearly, I can tell them from their clothes. And I happened to be walking the same way as Lin Pin did when I was going south. Who else can do such evil things, but this traitor?!" Gu Lei's tone was firm and calm, and he could not be questioned.There was a layer of anger in his eyes, but he didn't show it in front of Ruan Xixi.

He hoped that the woman in front of him could stay and live with him in Heguang Villa.I also hope that she can become his wife in the future and be on par with him.

Ruan Xixi suddenly asked in a low voice, "Are you following Lin Pin all the way?"

Looking at her questioning eyes, Gu Lei felt chills in his heart, "Yes, I have followed him all the way. I want to find opportunities to eliminate harm for the people." At that time, my father sent a letter saying that you were with Linpin. Beside me, I was worried about your safety, so after picking up Xie Xiaorao, I chased all the way in your direction, but unfortunately I didn't find your whereabouts in the end.

Ruan Xixi shook her head and sighed softly, "Gu Lei, in fact, you followed the wrong person all the way. The one who killed Senior Sister Yin was not Lin Pin, but Nanhuo's little princess—Ding Mo. She also pretended to be a Lin Pin, you should have seen it. At the martial arts conference, I already told you that it was Ding Luo, not Lin Pin."

Hearing her tone of intentionally defending Lin Pin, Gu Lei felt faintly unhappy, and said coldly, "Whether I'm following Ding Hao or Lin Pin all the way, they are all full of evil, and death is not a pity. As for who it is, it doesn't matter."

Ruan Xixi looked at him with complicated eyes. When he was a child, Gu Lei was a silly little fat man, honest and cute, he often played with her, and she loved to bully him.Now she looked at Gu Lei, maybe because she hadn't seen him for a long time, she felt that the person standing in front of her was a complete stranger.

Ruan Xixi's heart turned cold, "Since when did you follow Lin Pin?"

When Lin Pin led him into the city, Gu Lei and Xie Xiaorao happened to pass by. At that time, they had already caught up, so it could be seen that Ding Mo and his party were still behind.

Ruan Xixi's eyes became darker and darker, she looked at Gu Lei quietly, and the guessing in her heart became clearer.There is only one road leading to Anyang Mansion, and there is a rough section. If it is true that they arrived late as Gu Lei said, then they will definitely meet Ding Mo and his party on that road, but Ding Mo obviously has never seen it before. Gu Lei, and Gu Lei didn't fight Ding Hao on the road.

this means--

Ruan Xixi's gaze was as cold as ice, staring at Gu Lei.This shows that when Yin Xinglu and Zhu Rou'er were in misfortune, Gu Lei was nearby, and he hid himself and watched all this happen in the dark.Maybe it was because he didn't want Yin Xinglu to return to the Qingshan School, or maybe it was because of other reasons, he didn't make a move, but chose to leave quietly...

Gu Lei said, "I started to catch up with Lin Pin and his party after Yin Xinglu encountered an accident."

This sentence made Ruan Xixi's trust in Gu Lei completely disappear.Ruan Xixi gave Gu Lei a chance, but Gu Lei missed it. At this moment, Ruan Xixi only feels cold and deeply disappointed in him.

If he really turned a blind eye to the encounter between Yin Xinglu and Zhu Rou'er, then his heart is no longer as pure and kind as he was when he was a child.

Gu Lei vaguely felt that Ruan Xixi's question tonight was very strange, and Ruan Xixi was silent for a while after asking that question. This depressive silence made Gu Lei feel unsteady, and vaguely felt that she had a different attitude towards him.But keeping her is the top priority...

Gu Lei hesitated and said, "Xixi, in fact, father often wants to pick you up..."

A hint of boredom flashed across Ruan Xixi's eyes when she heard the words, and then she nodded with a sweet smile, "I will be back, you can rest assured Uncle Gu!" Now she only felt that Gu Lei was unbelievable, and wanted to leave this person's side and go to a quiet place. place to stay.

Lin Huhu asked her not to appear in front of Cui Sheng in the near future, so she thought of going back to live in Heguang Villa.But seeing Gu Lei like this, she felt that Heguang Villa was not very comfortable, so she made up her mind not to stay anywhere.

"Xie Xiaorao is here, it's not convenient for me to stay here."

She left a sentence, didn't pay attention to Gu Lei, and didn't look back, just like a gust of wind, she blew past Gu Lei's eyes lightly and delicately.Gu Lei watched her leave, and stretched out his hand towards her back, but only grasped an empty space.

Xixi, someday I will catch you...

When Xie Xiaorao came back, she met Gu Lei in the corridor. She noticed that Gu Lei's face was ugly, and she was thoughtful, knowing that it was not appropriate to offend him at this time, so she saluted quickly and wanted to escape.But he was stopped by Gu Lei.

Xie Xiaorao felt uneasy, but heard Gu Lei's voice from above his head coldly, "Is the hairpin on your head newly made?"

Xie Xiaorao was stunned for a moment, "Yes, I bought it with my own money."

Gu Lei snorted coldly, "Now you have to pay attention to your identity, don't go out casually." He took a few more glances at the hairpin on Xie Xiaorao's head. The money for the hairpin must have been used to redeem her body, but she has been staying in Fengyue Tower and cannot escape from her humble status... This hairpin is probably gifted by a nobleman, who could it be?

Xie Xiaorao said yes, and then took the opportunity to say, "I want to see a friend tomorrow."

"What friends do you have?" Gu Lei asked coolly, with contempt in his tone.

Xie Xiaorao said, "My friend is from Gyeonggi, and he is the one I met today."

Gu Lei's eyebrows twitched, his eyes moved from Xie Xiaorao's hairpin to her delicate and charming face, a strange look flashed in his eyes, "I will accompany you tomorrow."

Xie Xiaorao's heart widened, and he thought to himself: I finally got the bait.But the expression seemed hesitant, "This... I'm afraid it's inconvenient?" Instead of asking Gu Lei to let him go to the appointment, it's better to arouse his curiosity and ask him to come, so that he won't question himself for inviting him hard work.

Gu Lei is extremely conceited, and Xie Xiaorao is using his conceit at this time.

Back in the room, Xie Xiaorao untied her hairpin and fiddled with it in her hands, looking at a beautiful melon-seeded face in the bronze mirror, she smiled with satisfaction.Although Lin Pin had promised that he would never hurt Gu Lei, how could he believe what the treacherous officials said?She intentionally made Gu Lei notice her hairpin, and following the origin of the hairpin, he would know that the person he saw tomorrow was Lin Pin.I just don't know if the two met each other, is it the treacherous official with power over the government or the public, or the new martial arts leader who is a young hero with world-class martial arts skills?

Xie Xiaorao is going to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight tomorrow.She returned to the desk, carefully recalling what Lin Pin whispered to her today, Ning Sheng began to draw a pen and draw a few strokes on the roll of paper on the desk.Putting down the brush, Xie Xiaorao quietly stared at the mountain he had drawn.

Although she didn't know where Master Lin Pin got the news, Xie Xiaorao had an intuition that what Lin Pin told her was not fictional.

Xie Xiaorao frowned, why did Lin Pin know the great map of rivers and mountains that was only handed down to the Yuan family?Why is she willing to easily tell herself the mountain where the treasure is hidden to prove her identity as the daughter of the Yuan family?But anyway, it's better to have a picture than nothing...

Anyang Taishou Mansion.

Cui Sheng followed Lin Pin's trail today, and went to Wanhualou boldly, and found that Lin Pin had booked a private room here, saying that he would entertain guests tomorrow.Cui Sheng wondered what kind of guests Lin Xiao was going to entertain, why did he hold a banquet in this place of fireworks?

After leaving Wanhualou, Cui Sheng went to the place where Lin Pin made jewelry, and learned that Lin Pin ordered a hairpin of great value.So Cui Sheng had an idea in his mind, it turned out that the person Lin Pin wanted to have a tryst with was a woman.He and Lin Pin are deadly rivals, knowing that Lin Pin is not close to women, and he has never spent a lot of money to order hairpins for anyone, it is the first time that he can bother so much.

When he returned to the prefect's mansion, Cui Sheng saw Lin Pin take a few bank notes from the prefect of Anyang, and he hurriedly stuffed them into his sleeves when he saw himself appearing.

A strange look flashed in Cui Sheng's eyes, and then he leaned closer to Lin Pin and said, "Master Lin, do you have time tomorrow? I want to invite you to ride a horse in the suburbs."

Lin Xiao said, "I'm sorry Cui Changshi, I don't have time tomorrow."

Cui Sheng was sure when he heard the words, and said happily: It really is tomorrow!But he said regretfully, "That's a pity. It was a horse specially selected from the Nanhuo caravan. I thought I could walk the horse with Lord Lin."

Lin Pin said calmly, "In that case, let me kindly remind Cui Changshi—" She paused, and said to Cui Sheng's confused eyes, "Be careful not to fall to your death."
