Chapter 140

"I won't go." The aunt interrupted her and thought for a while. "Just bring me a blueprint and let the world know that I'm still alive."

Mu Yao felt a little regretful, since her auntie hadn't drawn anything since she went to France.In fact, most of the design she learned was taught by her aunt herself.

White House.

When Bai Zhenkai returned home, he found that the house had changed drastically. It was deserted, and many things were missing.

Although the matter of the Children's Paradise was found out, he was not at fault back then.But as the person in charge of City A, he still has an unshirkable responsibility for such a big incident.

Therefore, he was demoted and became the deputy head of the district directly after he came out.

And he retired one year ahead of schedule. After finishing this year, he will be retiring, but at least he has gained a reputation of incorruptibility.

"District Chief Bai, you're back." Sister Xia, who was busy in the kitchen, came out immediately when she heard the door open.

Bai Zhenkai sat on the sofa, looked around, and asked:

"Where are the madam and miss?"

"I went out early in the morning, and I don't know where I went." Sister Xia answered honestly.

"Xiao Xia, tell me what happened at home during the time I was away, and tell me everything without missing a single thing." Bai Zhenkai ordered.

Sister Xia didn't know much. She was sent away by Shen Changqin for a while recently, and she was called back just two days ago.

When I came back, my house was like this, and many valuable things were gone.

Bai Zhenkai had been an official all his life, so he naturally knew what kind of attitude his family would have if something like this happened to him.

He was able to come out thanks to Mu Yao's trustees everywhere.

But, unexpectedly, as a daughter, Bai Qiushui was thinking of running away.

Thinking of this, he leaned his head on the sofa and slowly closed his eyes, the corners of which were full of wrinkles.

Noon.

Shen Changqin came back after finishing her face. She was very happy to see Bai Zhenkai.

"Honey, you're back. How are you? Did they bully you? It must have been hard inside. Are you hurt? Let me see." After that, he turned left and right around him, without seeing any obvious signs of harm. Trauma, this is a sigh of relief.

"Honey, you've lost weight, so life must be difficult there, I'm worried to death." Shen Changqin said, her eyes turned red at the right time.

Then he hurriedly told Sister Xia in the kitchen: "Xiao Xia, don't forget tonight's steamed pork with flour, steam some, and cook some spare rib soup for a while longer."

These are Bai Zhenkai's favorite dishes on weekdays. After finishing speaking, he quickly made a pot of hot tea.

"Honey, this is your favorite tea, specially prepared for you."

Bai Zhenkai has been watching her movements with cold eyes, neither speaking nor reaching out to pick her up.

"What's wrong with you?" Shen Changqin realized that something was wrong, and the hand holding the teacup froze in place.

"Where have you been these few days?" Bai Zhenkai's tone was interrogative.

Shen Changqin was taken aback for a moment, then looked around, and immediately understood, tears fell out like this.

"Old Bai, are you doubting me..." His voice choked up before he finished speaking. "Do you know that I have been running around for the past few days because of your business, begging my grandpa to tell my grandma, my foot is almost broken, and now I am still limping when I walk."

As he said that, he intentionally exposed the injury on his leg, turned his head with an aggrieved face, and wiped away his tears.

"You begged for my business?" Bai Zhenkai wondered, didn't Mu Yao sell the small villa to clear up her grievances?
"I know, don't you just see that the house has completely changed, and you doubt me? I knew it was not easy to be a half-way couple. If I had known this, why would I stay at this house? I just don't want to live. I'll go. , anyway, I can't stay in this house anymore..."

After all, he got up, dragged his injured leg and limped towards the door.

Bai Qiushui rushed back from the door, seeing this scene, he quickly helped Shen Changqin up.

"Dad, you're back. Mom, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? Did you quarrel?"

"Qiu Shui, why did you go these days?" Bai Zhenkai asked her.

Bai Qiushui's face was full of spring, he didn't look like something happened at home at all.

"Where can I go? Dad, are you questioning us? Do you know that my mother has been running around for your business recently, begging many people, and all the family savings have been spent. As a last resort, Only then did I sell the things in the house, and my mother even broke her foot..."

"Forget it, Qiu Shui, don't talk about it." Shen Changqin looked extremely aggrieved. "Old Bai, in fact, I didn't do anything. I was useless. I couldn't find anyone. Qiu Shui asked Lu Jingchen for help. You can come out. You can't be without a conscience. The Lu family is so concerned about our affairs this time. They also apologized for Lu Jingchen not showing up at the engagement scene, so please forgive him."

When Bai Qiushui heard this, his eyes couldn't help but brighten up, and he looked at his mother with a moved face. He never thought that she would be able to plan for herself at this time.

Bai Zhenkai was taken aback.

Did Qiu Shui entrust Lu Jingchen?Isn't it Mu Yao?
For him to come out, Lu Jingchen did contribute a lot.

What he heard was that Mu Yao was looking for someone everywhere, and even found his teacher, Mr. Min...

"Qiu Shui, is that so?" Bai Zhenkai didn't look at Shen Changqin. In his heart, Shen Changqin was untrustworthy, but Bai Qiushui never lied.

"Father, if you don't believe me, you can ask someone to investigate us. Anyway, you have a lot of connections, and we have nothing to do. We are small people."

Bai Qiushui pursed his lips as he spoke, with an aggrieved expression on his face.

"Dad, it's just that I didn't expect that you would quietly buy a house for my sister. If it wasn't for your accident, we would have been kept in the dark."

After Shen Changqin met Mu Yao at the agency company that day, she was always puzzled, and went back two days later to inquire about it.

Only then did I know that Mu Yao was selling the house.

Well, you Bai Zhenkai, you actually did such a thing behind my back.

When Shen Changqin found out, she was so angry that she was even more merciless when selling his calligraphy and paintings.

Bai Zhenkai was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect to let Qiushui know about it.

"Father, mother has already said that it's not because you are greedy for your property, but you can't leave her with nothing. After you leave, the family has no savings and doesn't sell things. You let us How can I find someone to help?" Bai Qiushui became more and more aggrieved as he talked, and sobbed softly.

Bai Zhenkai looked at the crying mother and daughter, and his heart was in a mess.

"Okay, Qiushui, don't cry. I know I shouldn't hide it from you about buying a house for your sister, but you are going to marry the Lu family soon. The Lu family has a big business, and there will be no shortage Your house. For your sister, you know, I have always been very guilty. The house was bought with the money from selling your grandparents’ old house. "

When Bai Qiushui heard him say that he was about to marry into the Lu family, he thought that the matter had finally come to fruition.

He was very happy in his heart, but on the surface he continued calmly:

"Dad, we don't blame you for buying a house for my sister, but you shouldn't hide it from us. These days, my mother has been worrying about your affairs, but you didn't say hello when you came back, but you still attacked her. Dad, I feel for her Cool."

When Bai Zhenkai heard this, he turned his head and glanced at Shen Changqin. He still felt that things were not that simple.
