Chapter 438 Guess

The moonlight was hazy, and the lights in Liu Mansion were brightly lit. Liu Yirong and several medical experts from the Liu family were urgently summoned by the city lord's palace to diagnose and treat the poisoned soldiers in the city guard camp.

Liu Ruyan and Ji Boda had just returned to the Liu family and were preparing to take charge of the Liu family to handle some urgent matters.

Liu Ruyan sat in the study, frowning, lost in thought.

She turned to look out the window. The bright moon was hanging high, and the silver moonlight shone on the window lattice, reflecting her cold and delicate profile.

There was an inexplicable feeling in her heart, which seemed to be a little uneasy and also a little hopeful.

At this moment, Ji Boda walked into the study quietly. He noticed Liu Ruyan's abnormality and asked with concern: "Ruyan, what's wrong with you? You look a little uneasy."

Liu Ruyan came back to her senses, shook her head slightly, and forced a smile, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something."

Ji Boda walked to her and sat down, held her hand, and said softly: "Is it about Ito Makoto and the Crimson Church? I know what you are worried about, and I am also thinking about these issues. Are you here today? I know you don't feel good about criticizing him at the engagement party. After all, you have always regarded him as your biological brother. "

Liu Ruyan nodded, the worry on his face became heavier, "Yes, Boda. I think we may not know Ito Makoto well enough. Our previous conversations with Chen Xiaojun and the others only revealed the iceberg Ikkaku, the relationship between Ito Makoto and the Crimson Church should be far more complicated than we imagined."

Ji Boda also frowned after hearing this. He knew that Liu Ruyan's worries were not groundless. The appearance and actions of Ito Makoto did bring them a lot of trouble.

Ji Boda frowned and said solemnly: "I feel the same way. Ito Makoto is a very scheming person, and we really need to be more careful."

Liu Ruyan hesitated for a moment, and seemed a little embarrassed to say, "Boda, there is one more thing. I just reviewed the whole process tonight, and I always felt that there was something very strange."

Ji Boda looked at her and encouraged: "What can't we say between us? Just say it and I will listen carefully."

Liu Ruyan still spoke, but her voice was a little twisted: "Um, Boda, do you think it's a little strange for Ito Makoto to cause trouble this time?"

Ji Boda's heart tightened. His fiancée mentioned Ito Makoto's robbery, and he suppressed his unhappiness.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions. Because he didn't know that Liu Ruyan cared so much about Ito Makoto because he was worried about his family and the entire situation, and had a soft heart caused by years of friendship.

He said in a deep voice: "Ruyan, Ito Cheng is indeed a difficult person, and his behavior is always unpredictable. However, we cannot let this mess us up. We must analyze calmly and find out his true purpose .”

Liu Ruyan looked at him, a trace of apology flashed in her eyes: "I'm sorry, Boda, I didn't mean to mention his messiness. It's just that I feel that his behavior this time seems a bit unreasonable."

Ji Boda looked at Liu Ruyan's sincere and reserved eyes with the turbulent admiration. He fell silent and calmly thought about Liu Ruyan's words.

Sure enough, sincerity is a must-win!

Liu Ruyan sighed and said slowly: "I just think it's a bit weird for Ito Makoto to make trouble this time. Think about it, if you don't say that I won't agree, there are so many adults here today. His act of stealing the bride The probability of success is almost zero. So why would he do it? It doesn’t seem to be in line with his style, but why would he do it?”

Douluo Continent is not Blue Star's new century, and marriage contracts in this era are not so easy to escape.

Under the gaze of everyone, unless there is a crushing advantage and a suppressive attitude, there is no need to think about it. After all, where is the face of the wealthy family? Ji Boda frowned and thought deeply: "Isn't it true that he loves you to the core and thinks today is his last chance?"

Liu Ruyan shook her head and denied the speculation: "It's impossible. Ito Makoto is a thoughtful and self-restrained person, otherwise he wouldn't have hidden it from us for so many years."

"Besides, even if he wants to get me, all he has to do is harm you. After all, it's still some time before we get married. He doesn't need to do such impulsive things." Liu Ruyan said, her face slightly red.

"The most important thing is that they made major mistakes in their personnel arrangements. They only sent four Contras to deal with us, and one titled combat force to hold the battle, and the Nine Nether Douluo who finally appeared was obviously the last one to come. "

"They actually have zero information about the Chen family. Logically speaking, if Ito Makoto is colluding with them, they should at least have information about the two Contras. The fact is, not to mention Chen Congmian, there are two Contras. They didn't know about Douluo's arrival, which was the main reason for their failure."

After hearing this, Ji Boda felt puzzled in his heart, "You are right, this is indeed strange. Ito Makoto is a smart man, and it is impossible for him to do such impulsive and omitted things. Unless..."

"Unless what?" Liu Ruyan asked.

Ji Boda thought for a moment and said slowly: "Unless he has some purpose that we don't know about. Perhaps he wants to send us some kind of message through this action, or to cover up some larger plot."

A cold glint flashed in Liu Ruyan's eyes, "You're right. Moreover, I remember that the leader of the Crimson Church, Yan Shenglong, said to Ito Makoto when he appeared, 'It's useless for you to do this!'. This sentence made me even more excited. I’m sure there must be something behind Makoto Ito that we don’t know about.’”

Ji Boda frowned in thought. Now that he thought about it, he also felt that Ito Makoto's appearance was too strange, and his behavior always seemed to have a strange aura.

He said solemnly: "In this way, Ito Makoto is indeed a bit abnormal. He seems to be crazy, but in fact he has no offense at all, except for the Nether Blood Lily."

Liu Ruyan nodded, "Yes. And if, I mean if, we can discuss that my grandfather was killed because of the Crimson Church, then Grandpa Yi's death has also not been found out, could he also have something to do with it?" Did he realize that it was the Crimson Church who did this? After all, he has been in contact with the Crimson Church for a long time? "

Ji Boda took a deep breath and said: "This issue is indeed worthy of our in-depth study. Ruyan, don't worry, I will fully support you and solve this mystery together."

Liu Ruyan held Ji Boda's hand tightly, her tone became softer, and she said a little cautiously: "Boda, today I just feel it is abnormal because of my many years of familiarity with him. It is not to excuse him."

Ji Boda was silent for a long time, and finally spoke slowly, his voice full of determination: "Ruyan, I believe you! Now we will form an alliance with the Chen family. I believe that after the alliance, they will provide us with more Their intelligence network has always been strong, and their understanding of the Crimson Church is much deeper than ours. With their support, we will definitely be able to uncover the secrets between Ito Makoto and the Crimson Church.”

After Liu Ruyan heard this, she felt relieved. She snuggled into Ji Boda's arms and whispered softly: "I believe in you too, Boda. You have always been my strongest support. No matter what difficulties I encounter, you are always there." They can all respond calmly and find solutions.”

"May your heart be like mine, and I will live up to my love!"

Ji Boda's heart trembled. This was the first time Liu Ruyan expressed such affectionate words.

He gently held Liu Ruyan's waist, and their eyes met, as if they could feel the firmness and warmth in each other's hearts.

They hugged each other tightly, trying to integrate each other into their bodies. At this moment, they were no longer separate individuals, but an indivisible whole.
