The cold water hit his face, and Lu Sinian forced himself to be calmer. The pursuit and breakout just now made the signature come into his mind again.

The lingering words suddenly made him breathless.

Meteors always fall in an instant.

He thought he couldn't bear it.

When Lu Sinian finally adjusted his expression to a calm and calm expression and returned to the private room, the food was already being served.

The girl is carefully observing the signature dish in front of her - "fresh crab and bird's nest stuffed with phoenix wings".

Inexplicably, it reminds me of the fried chicken wings of a world-famous fast food.

I don’t want to use my reserved chopsticks at all.

She looked at Lu Sinian and blinked.

Lu Sinian was stunned, "Huh?"

"I want to eat it with my hands." The girl confessed frankly.

Lu Sinian sneered under his breath, with a hint of interest in his eyes.

"It's over, I want it too."

Both of them had their shirt cuffs half-rolled lazily.

Clean hands.

open.

After eating two chicken wings, Su Xiaoli wiped her hands with a wet towel with satisfaction.

She picked up the red wine and drank it all in one gulp, "It's a pleasure."

The owner of the restaurant knew that the two distinguished guests from the Lu family were here, so he specially presented them with red wine from the store's collection to accompany the meal.

Lu Sinian put down the chicken wings in his hand and picked up the wet towel, "Don't move."

Su Xiaoli didn't understand why, and before she could dodge, Lu Sinian's towel had already been stretched out.

The remnants of oil and red wine at the corners of her mouth.

Fortunately, only a little bit.

Lu Sinian...actually wanted to help her put a strand of soft hair on her temples behind her ears.

I endured it again and again.

There can be no rush.

Take a deep breath silently.

My face is clean.

Su Xiaoli accidentally caught a glimpse of Lu Sinian's arm.

"Huh? The scars on your arms haven't gone away yet? Mine are almost gone."

She showed Lu Sinian her hand, "The ointment is very useful."

Lu Sinian smiled nonchalantly and said, "The scars on the body are not easy to remove."

"Oh, then you have to keep applying it." Su Xiaoli told him seriously.

"Yeah." Lu Sinian said smoothly without moving his eyes.

"Actually, there is one more thing..." Su Xiaoli's expression suddenly became serious.

"What?" Lu Sinian put down the towel and stared at the girl.

"Lin Er." Su Xiaoli raised her chin with one hand, "Whether she is targeting the two of us or not, it is still necessary to know more about her situation."

Lu Sinian's heart trembled, "Tell me about it."

Su Xiaoli slowly talked about her analysis while thinking about it.

"Presumably she can't get her hands into Lu's house at the moment. Then her purpose of drugging may be to take care of Lin Da inside, but she just borrowed grandpa's hand."

"It's just that to be able to do this, there must be a connection between the inside and the outside. Kuang Jiaming brought her in, but there is still a missing link in the person who can take care of her when it is done."

Su Xiaoli remained leisurely and told the analysis results of the past few days.

Lu Sinian sat up straighter.

--really. Her biological father, Lu Jiahao, is exactly what the girl failed to think through.

"Anyway, Lin Er is a good man who stirs up troubles. We have to know more about him." Su Xiaoli didn't want to fall into the hands of this person in the future.

She had to pull out this thorn in advance.

If you want to go further, you must take the initiative and avoid risks.

"What do you want to do?" Lu Sinian's calm appearance concealed a hint of anxiety.

"Private detective? Or instigating a few people who know her well?" Su Xiaoli tilted her head, but she only had a general direction and no experience in this area.

Lu Sinian pondered.

Relying on oneself to protect Su Xiaoli is indeed not as good as everyone else being vigilant and guarding against each one. Xiaoli's initiative is not a bad thing. He has a sense of self-preservation and he feels more at ease.

Although... she didn't want her to know that Lu Jiahao was one of the shady people and played an important role.

But compared to his own face, Xiaoli's safety is indeed more important.

Always let her get through the deadline for signing the document smoothly.

"Then let's find Uncle Zheng." Lu Sinian figured it out and suggested pleasantly.

"Uncle Zheng?" Su Xiaoli hesitated, "Doesn't it mean that grandpa will also know about these little tricks of mine?"

Things are getting serious.

Lu Sinian laughed and asked jokingly: "If you find someone else, do you think grandpa will know?"

Su Xiaoli suddenly understood and nodded repeatedly, "That makes sense."

"Uncle Zheng is more prudent in doing things." Lu Sinian added.

In addition to trusting Uncle Zheng’s skills...

The key is that he will know the results of the investigation as soon as possible, and Xiaoli does not need to bear the responsibility alone.

"Then it's settled." Su Xiaoli smiled brightly.

She picked up the red wine glass and said, "Cheers to my first initiative to 'do evil'."

Her eager little face flushed red, she smiled brightly, and her eyes were clear and innocent.

There is no hint of "doing bad things" at all.

Lu Sinian clinked glasses with her naturally, dipped his lips in the red wine and put it down.

But, I feel a little relieved.

——Su Xiaoli "committed evil" for the first time, and she was the only accomplice.

Even if the sun goes down and the air conditioner is turned on, "doing bad things" with her is actually warm.

The two chatted a lot over good wine and good food.

Ever since she came out of the bookstore that day, Su Xiaoli's movements had become a little more free and easy without realizing it.

Pure and charming, relaxed and comfortable, her smile is particularly swaying.

Living with Su Xiaoli like this day and night, Lu Sinian was really afraid that he would break his defense in the next second.

An irresistible impulse.

"Having said that, Mrs. Lu, from now on you will be a 'Yi Yan Tang', just like my grandfather back then." Su Xiaoli's eyes were already a bit drunk.

She was tired after several days in a row, and she was a little drunk.

Lu Sinian almost didn't drink, which was fine.

There was only a little more dark amber light in his eyes, but he was still gentle and calm, "At least, I will follow your advice."

"I still don't understand a lot myself." Su Xiaoli smiled.

"Oh?" Lu Sinian looked unbelieving, with a smile in his eyes.

He had seen the girl's ability with his own eyes. After all, the two had been together every day for the past two months.

Her depth of thinking, intelligence and decision-making, imagination, and understanding always amazed him and made him fascinated.

Xiaoli actually doesn't know how to do it.

"There are many, such as how to take proactive precautions at the moment, and stocks, futures, options, etc." Su Xiaoli thought of the stocks that Mr. Lu gave her.

Lu Sinian nodded, that's it.

"Want to learn? I can teach you." He said gently.

Su Xiaoli was disrespectful and nodded repeatedly, "Then open two accounts with it first."

I suddenly found a new target and felt quite heroic.

"Why do you need so much? Grandpa has given you a lot of stocks that you can operate directly."

"It's better to start from the beginning." The corners of Su Xiaoli's mouth curved slightly.

If you don't enter the wilderness, how can you know the world?

Her eyes suddenly became a little dazed, "The two accounts can also be played against one another."

Two accounts, one for myself and one for Ling Yicheng.

Since they parted ways in Qingzhou, the two have had no contact.

I don't know if the words I said to him had any effect.

Regarding Lu Sinian’s attitude towards dealing with scars on his arms - in fact, it is a kind of subconscious self-healing, because in his childhood he saw his parents stabbing each other with knives, and similar stabbings also happened between Xiao Lu and Xiao Li the behavior of.

"The emotions and physical sensations of a trauma are not just a memory, but an imprint that can react destructively on the body in real-life situations. In order to regain control of yourself, you need to return to the trauma." Deal with that feeling of being overwhelmed when you encounter similar feelings and emotions from the past.”
