Holy Emperor's lover

Late at night, slightly cold.

Shang Jiu stood alone in front of the window, and the quartz clock on the wall was pointing to 09:30. Colonel Lauren hadn't returned since he left in the afternoon, and he also took Alisa with him. After dinner, the inside and outside of the villa were extremely quiet.

The quietness is only on the surface, because no one is stalking from the dark.

Shang Jiu is sure that in the end, Mr. Liu will compromise with the military, not only because he has no second choice, but more importantly because of the "magic pupil".

At the beginning when he handed over the "Magic Eyes" to "Dinah", he was sure that the power behind the other party was unusual. Afterwards, Shang Jiu feigned death, and Mr. Liu never made a statement, because from the beginning to the end, he firmly believed in "Dinah". "Dinna" is not dead, or more precisely, the powerful force behind "Dinah" has never disappeared.

So this time, Shang Jiu handed over the "magic pupil" to Colonel Lauren, and when Mr. Liu saw that the things he entrusted to him had returned, he would definitely link the identity of "Dinah" with the military. happy to see.

"What are you doing so much trouble for? If you want, you can make that old man submit by moving your fingers casually." A dissatisfied shout suddenly came from outside the window, and then a white figure burst out of the air strangely.

Shang Jiu calmly watched Bai Zi come again uninvited, and no longer had any extravagant hopes for him, imagining that one day this man would knock on the door and come in peacefully.

He moved two steps to the left indiscriminately, and moved the window door. Just as the gap was leaked, the night wind mixed with a trace of coldness rushed in...

Bai Zi pursed his lips with a tangled expression, and didn't express any verbal opinions on Shang Jiu's apparently unnecessary behavior, but he got into the room cooperatively enough, while Shang Jiu quickly closed the window again, pulled the curtain, and isolated the room by the way. Those peeping eyes outside.

"Your room is bugged." After Bai Zi came in, he keenly noticed the strangeness within two seconds.

Shang Jiu looked calm: "I know."

Not only did he know, but he also knew exactly who did it.

Ever since Colonel Lauren called him "Ajiu" without any shyness, he knew that Han Yifeng and Mu Ye would definitely be suspicious.

"In comparison, the pinhole camera is actually better." Seeing Shang Jiu's indifferent expression, Bai Zi taunted, "But sometimes, just listening to the sound seems more exciting."

Shang Jiu glanced at him lazily, is this guy jealous?Or just plain whining?

"If you feel lonely, empty and cold, you can find a companion." There is no need to dangle in front of his eyes every day.

Although Shang Jiu didn't say the last sentence explicitly, he didn't try to hide it. Bai Zi immediately understood what he meant, and his old face blushed, feeling a little embarrassed.

"I'm just reminding you." He argued weakly.

Shang Jiu said "Oh", and suddenly stared at Bai Zi solemnly, his deep purple eyes undisguisedly sizing up Bai Zi, with an icy cold light faintly flowing in his eyes.

Bai Zi felt uncomfortable being stared at by him, coughed lightly, walked to the vertical cabinet, poured himself a glass of red wine, even though his back was turned to Shang Jiu, he could still clearly feel the other party's eyes glued to his On the back, if it is possible, it probably has turned into a pair of sharp knives and shot through his lute...

Thinking of this, Bai Zi couldn't help but shudder, and at the same time he cursed in his heart: Sure enough, he did it himself.

"I went to find Liu Yuehen." In line with the policy of "lenient confession", he took the initiative to break the conversation.

Shang Jiu looked at him with a half-smile, without saying a word.

Bai Zi sipped his red wine uncomfortably, feeling dizzy, and then sneezed loudly.

"Ajiu, to be honest, I'm very dissatisfied with your current attitude in handling things. You procrastinate and dawdle. When you have the ability to send me back to the void, I don't know how long it will take? I just look at it for our partner's sake." Come on, just do your best..."

"What are you guilty of?" Shang Jiu asked abruptly.

Bai Zi opened his mouth, and was interrupted in the middle of what he said earlier, and even his thoughts were disrupted. Looking at Shang Jiu's calm eyes, as if he was watching a good show, he was inexplicably annoyed Get up, when did he let himself be so embarrassed?

Are you angry?Shang Jiu sighed, lowered his head, and accepted the word as soon as he saw it. He knew that maybe it was because it was too quiet tonight that he had the leisure to tease Bai Zi.

Regarding Liu Yuehen's matter, he did not handle it properly. Demons are best at bewitching people's hearts and taking the initiative to attack, but he deliberately let the other party have a chance to breathe and regret. It's no wonder that Bai Zi was furious.

Even though he was "wrong", Shang Jiu didn't want to bow his head and apologize to Bai Zi, so——

"It's you who said, let me take full responsibility, and now you are so eager to interfere, disrupting my plan..."

He spoke unhurriedly, every word was so clear, Bai Zi let out a breath of irritability, wanted to explode, but held it back.

Simply, Shang Jiu didn't plan to torment the other party too much. Seeing the man frowning dejectedly, he threw the crystal ball prepared in advance.

Bai Zi was taken aback for a moment, and instinctively stretched out his hand to catch the crystal ball. He couldn't help but be speechless: "Since when did you start learning the magic wand? Is this... a witch's crystal ball? According to legend, it can see past lives and futures?"

The corner of Shang Jiu's mouth twitched slightly, and he explained: "This is an energy storage device. After the energy storage is saturated, the sphere will turn red. At that time, you can return directly to the void without me leading the way."

Hearing this, Bai Zi looked at Shang Jiu in disbelief. In the past, the "goods" obtained by demons after trading would be directly sent back to the void, and the conversion between the two energy systems is not something that demons can interfere with. They just need to It is enough to know that the more diligent the master will give, the more rewards will be given.

However, what Shang Jiu is doing now is to privately collect the "commodities" obtained from the transaction under the premise of concealing the owner, and privately develop energy conversion.

"For now, I only have two things in my hands." One is Liu Zheng's love, and the other is Xu'er's ten-year lifespan. "But I can't give you these two things until the Liu family's affairs are over. The reason , you should be clear."

Bai Ziming understands: Balance between income and expenditure, there are gains and losses.

Just like this time, if Liu Yuehen agrees to make a deal with Shang Jiu, he will pay his friendship and get five years of life. The latter must be extracted from Shang Jiu's storage room instead of being supported by the headquarters as in the past.This is the price of "flying solo".

"Liu Yuehen's side..." Bai Zi hesitated to speak. Without prior consultation, he acted privately and interfered with his partner's transaction. To put it seriously, it was provocation.

Shang Jiu snorted softly. When he partnered with Gu Haotian, it was out of respect that he never interfered with the other party's freedom. He would only speak out to remind him at important moments.

Bai Zi has long been used to the life of a "lone ranger". Suddenly, he has a partner, whom he abducted by all means, but he doesn't know how to get along with him. was not successful.

"Not as an example." Shang Jiu spat out four words coldly. Although Bai Zi was out of "good intentions", he didn't want to deal with unexpected incidents that might happen at all. "My style is like this. You can go to the coffin and sleep for a while, I promise, when you come out, you will be able to return to the void immediately."

Bai Zi: "..." He just put a little pressure on Liu Yuehen. If there is no accident, that person will take the initiative to come to the door tomorrow.

Forget it, it was indeed his foul, and he didn't want to annoy Shang Jiu at this time, after all, he had been waiting for so many years, and he didn't care about these few days, and——

"After a while, the negotiation between Colonel Lauren and the old man of the Liu family should be over, right?"

Is it a strong alliance?Or another secret contest?

For them, this is not important anymore, at least for now, neither the Han family nor the "Slaughter" can take advantage of it, and it is enough to fetch water from a bamboo basket for nothing.

"So, you should go back, Bai Zi."

"..." Ajiu, the colonel hasn't come back yet, do you need to issue a eviction order in such a hurry?

Bai Zi silently turned his head and looked away. After a few seconds of silence, he wisely cleaned up the traces left by him and was about to leave, but before he left, he couldn't help but gossip for a while.

"Ajiu, as your partner, maybe I should remind you: don't take everything too seriously."

"what do you mean?"

Shang Jiu just re-tied the white silk, and was taken aback for a moment, looking at the mysterious Bai Zi, who shrugged and slid towards the double bed on the other side with an ambiguous expression...
