Falling tonight

Chapter 118 Means
Li Sijin casually glanced at the scenery outside the window, turned the steering wheel with his hands, and said with a warm voice, "When I first came back, the old man bought it for me. I rarely come here."

Zhao Rou touched her chin thoughtfully, "It seems that Mr. Li treats you quite well..."

Was it because he had left his son living outside for too long that Li Sijin gave him a mansion and equity in the company as soon as he returned to the Li family?
"Ha," Li Sijin sneered calmly, seeming to be amused by her words, but his smile was obviously emotionless.

Zhao Rou retracted her gaze from the window and turned to the driver's seat of the car.

Li Sijin took her back to his home, was he planning to tell her the reason why he returned to the Li family?

The car drove into the huge underground parking lot and stopped in the exclusive parking space.

Zhao Rou followed Li Sijin to the elevator and went to the top floor.

There are one-family-one-staircase units here, so privacy is good.

After walking into the house, Zhao Rou looked around and found that Li Sijin's home was very empty and there was no trace of living here often.

Li Sijin took off his suit jacket, rolled up the cuffs, and walked to the glass platform to collect water.

Zhao Rou sat down on the white sofa.

Except for the sound of the water dispenser, there was no other sound in the room.

It was too quiet, and Zhao Rou was a little uncomfortable with this atmosphere.

There were a lot of people at the press conference just now, so she followed Li Sijin out without thinking too much.

Now, at night, a man and a woman are alone.

Only later did she remember the drunken phone call Li Sijin had made a few nights ago.

When Li Sijin said he had something to do with her, he didn't mean to talk about what happened on the phone that night, right?
so awkward.

Fidgeting.

After thinking about it, Zhao Rou glanced at Li Sijin, coughed lightly, and randomly picked a topic, "Well, how are you and Xing Bao doing? You two will attend the press conference together tonight. Are you planning to date?"

Li Sijin was filling the water dispenser. When he heard her words, he looked up. When the water in the cup was almost full, he pressed the button to stop the water dispensing.

Zhao Rou heard him walking over and saying slowly, "We are still in contact, so we may have this intention."

His voice sounded flat and indifferent.

Have the intention.

Zhao Rou couldn't tell whether she was relieved or more nervous after hearing this.

Since Li Sijin was considering dating someone else, what happened that night should have been something he casually said when he was drunk, right?
Maybe she really was overthinking it.

Li Sijin walked up to her and handed her the water.

"Thank you." Zhao Rou reached out to take the water, took a sip, suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, and asked, "You said you had something to do with me tonight, what happened?"

Li Sijin turned around and sat down on the single sofa opposite her.

"Do you still remember what I said before that I have taken over some of the forces of the Li family? I asked them to conduct a more in-depth investigation based on the clues you found in Wei County last month and found several people, all of whom were related to Min Uncle' is related."

Zhao Rou's hand holding the cup shook.

It turned out that Li Sijin came to talk to her about this matter.

She looked up, her eyes dancing with joy, "Where's the one named 'Uncle Min'? Have you found it?"

"It's hard to say now."

Li Sijin frowned, called up the video on his phone, and threw the phone on the coffee table in front of Zhao Rou, "These are the people who used to work under 'Uncle Min'. My people found them and used some means to get rid of them." They know from their mouths that the last time they saw 'Uncle Min' was 15 years ago."

Zhao Rou leaned forward and looked over.What appeared on the screen were scenes of torture.

Some burly men in black wearing black masks and hats surrounded four or five middle-aged men.

Holding a whip or a short knife in his hand, the man in black questioned the men surrounding him. If he had any questions that he didn't answer, he stabbed them mercilessly.

Men's screams and begging for mercy kept coming from the phone.

Zhao Rou endured the discomfort in her heart, and when she saw the end, she pushed the phone back to the opposite side.

She looked up at Li Sijin and found that his expression remained motionless, as if he was not surprised by such a bloody scene.

"In this case, 'Uncle Min' might have died 15 years ago?"

Li Sijin nodded, confirming her suspicion, "It's possible."

He added, "These people are all his former little brothers. It is normal for them not to know his whereabouts. Another possibility is that he collected the money and in order to prevent others from finding him, in the next ten years, Play disappear.”

A gangster leader disappeared just because he committed a kidnapping case?

Listening to Li Sijin's analysis, Zhao Rou always felt that something was wrong.

She considered it and asked, "If the latter possibility is true, what should we do? Can you find this person?"

"If he is still alive, we can find him with the Li family's connections. But give me some time, Xiaorou."

Li Sijin leaned back on the sofa and raised his fingers to press on his temples to relieve his headache.

"Thank you for helping me check these," Zhao Rou was very grateful to Li Sijin. She saw that he looked tired and his eye sockets were blue and black. He must have not had a good rest.

Li Sijin smiled, opened his eyes, and stared at her from a distance of the coffee table, "I know this is your problem."

I don’t know if Zhao Rou saw it wrong, or if the warm light in the room was too soft.

Li Sijin looked towards her, smiling with a bit of endearment in his eyes through the lenses.

She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look directly into Li Sijin's eyes.

Li Sijin's voice continued to ring from the opposite side, "I don't want to see you regret or apologize for that person you once were. It has taken root in your heart. I want to help you unplug it."

"Xiaorou, no matter what you want to do, I will do my best."

Li Sijin looks gentle and gentle on the surface, but his strength deep down cannot be ignored.

Zhao Rou knew this many years ago.

He told her bluntly at this moment that he would do anything for her.

Including finding the boy she's always wanted to find.

But... why?
Zhao Rou was deeply shocked by his words, and the hand holding the cup shrank.

After a long minute passed, Zhao Rou raised her head, looked directly into Li Sijin's eyes, and pretended to smile lightly, "Sijin, thank you very much, but my matters are not that important, so you don't have to be like this."

Li Sijin raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

After pausing for a few seconds, Zhao Rou couldn't help but ask, "Wouldn't the Li family know about your use of these forces to investigate my affairs?"

"No, although the people I sent are from the Li family, I have a way to make them listen to me and your affairs will not be leaked."

His method…

When Li Sijin showed her the video just now, he didn't seem to care about the ruthless tactics of the man in black in the video.
