Chapter 44 Her eyes are lying

Lin Yisheng's sudden visit to Lihuaxi was purely accidental.

Compared with coming all the way to Lihuaxi, the sudden murder case at the main house, the bidding case under Lin's banner, any one of them is more important than traveling thousands of miles.

But here he is.

When lunch was approaching, Lin Jinqian had just received a notice from the maid to prepare for the meal, and the news of Lin Yisheng's arrival followed closely.

He was a little surprised, but after thinking for a few seconds, he immediately guessed why Lin Yisheng might be here.

Murray.

"Let him come to my study." Lin Jinqian explained to the informant on the phone.

"Sixth Young Master wants to see his wife."

Lin Jinqian bent his pale thin lips, and said in a low voice, "Tell him, my wife is in the study with me."

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone and looked at the desolate back mountain outside the window.

Winter is here, the weather is getting colder, it should be the right time to hibernate.

About 10 minutes later, there was a knock on the door of the study room. After three knocks, the door opened automatically, and Luo He led Lin Yisheng in.

As soon as Lin Yisheng stepped into the study room, he looked around, but Mu Li was nowhere to be seen, his brows were tightly frowned, and he was extremely displeased at being deceived, "Where's Ali?"

Lin Jinqian remained silent, raised his hand, and signaled Luo He to leave the study.

Roch nodded.

After the door was closed again, Lin Jinqian controlled the wheelchair and turned around. Lin Yisheng, who was standing behind the door, said softly, "She is taking Xiaoxi."

"Do you want to use Xiaoxi to tie her up?"

"Xiaoxi likes her, and she also likes Xiaoxi, why should I tie her up?"

"Sooner or later, I'm going to marry Ali." Lin Yisheng stepped forward, and threw down the post with a little emotion.

Lin Jinqian was indifferent, ignoring his punch, and asked, "Well, what are you doing here?"

"I want to see Ali."

"I just saw her yesterday. Even if you can't forget her, don't ignore your scruples. She is your sister-in-law now, and you are the heir of the Lin family." Lin Jinqian reminded me gently.

Lin Yisheng hesitated to speak, a look of unnaturalness flashed across his handsome face, and he said sharply, "I have something important to see Ali, if I delay, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep her, brother!"

"Oh?" Lin Jinqian raised his eyebrows slightly, showing curiosity, "What's so serious?"

"I want to tell Ali personally."

Lin Jinqian smiled faintly, "Sheng, it's not that the eldest brother is unkind, you'd better keep some distance from A Li, otherwise the report will be messed up again. I think that's not what you want to see."

Lin Yisheng was dumbfounded, Lin Jinqian had something in his words, he might have guessed that the previous report was ordered by him privately, he took a deep breath, remained silent for a few seconds, and adjusted his mood.

He was too excited just now. The person who heard the report said that Mu Li and Lin Jinqian were in the study together. When he thought of the two of them together, he couldn't control the anger in his heart, so he lost his sense of proportion.

Lin Yisheng stepped forward, sat down on the tatami not far from Lin Jinqian, and said patiently, "Something happened in the main house."

"This morning, the maid cleaning the back hill found someone dead on the back hill. The police also went to the scene and confirmed that it was a murder, but no clues were left at the scene."

"The deceased was none other than the maid who was on duty last night. The maid who found the corpse saw something near the corpse, and this thing has a great relationship with Ali."

"That's why I insisted on seeing her."

Lin Yisheng told the truth frankly, without concealing anything. Judging from all the information he has so far, he firmly believes that it must be the work of an inner ghost, and this inner ghost got the purse of Mu Li's embroidered clothes and deliberately planted it.

Of course, this is just his current speculation.

But no matter what, as long as he has even a little relationship with Mu Li, he must be more cautious.

The reason why he is willing to tell Lin Jinqian frankly is not because he believes in him or asks him for help, but because he is still husband and wife with Ali.

Although the husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest and fly separately in the face of disaster, it is not easy for Lao Yan to fly separately among several big families.

If Ali is inevitably involved in this murder case, he and Lin Jinqian are just a cooperative relationship.

After hearing these words, Lin Jinqian's expression changed slightly. He was not surprised by Lin Yisheng's confession. What really surprised him was that after so many years, Lin Yisheng still had a deep affection for Mu Li.

"What's that thing?" With a lot of emotions suppressed, Lin Jinqian naturally asked what he cared about the most.

Lin Yisheng said, "I want to see Ali."

Lin Jinqian leaned against the back of the chair, his eyes downcast in thought. After a while, he steered the wheelchair to the desk, picked up the phone and dialed, "Tell the wife to come to the study."

Wife... Hearing this address from Lin Jinqian's mouth, Lin Yisheng felt bitter and unbearable. He clenched his hands unconsciously, implying that at such a critical moment, nothing is as important as "purse".

At this time, Mu Li was dressing Lin Xi, and just 10 minutes before, the domestic servant came to call her. It was already lunch time, and she had to take Lin Xi to lunch.

The moment I opened my eyes, I saw the little girl sleeping sweetly next to me, and my heart was filled with indescribable sweetness, as if I just looked at the little girl's sleeping face quietly, and all my troubles would disappear.

"Mom, I'll get you that little bag later, and then we'll have dinner, shall we?" Lin Xi sat obediently on the edge of the bed and let Mu Li button her up.

Mu Li squatted halfway, and when he heard the little girl say that, he smiled sincerely, staring at the little girl's face with bright brown eyes, and said, "Okay."

"I only wore that dress once, when my father took me to visit my grandpa. My sisters said it looked good, but I didn't think my mother looked as good in it."

The mouth of the glutinous rice dumpling is like honey, and the words can make people feel sweet to the bottom of their hearts.

After getting dressed, Mu Li carried her off the bed, and as soon as he held her hands, the door was knocked open.

Luo He stood at the door and said solemnly: "Madam, please go to the study. Sixth Young Master is here."

Lin Yisheng... what is he doing here?Mu Li was secretly startled, but calm on the face, handed Lin Xi to the maid, and turned around to go to the study with Luo He.

"Mom, when will I bring you the little bag?" Lin Xi innocently asked from behind.

Mu Li smiled and replied: "You go to eat first, and after the meal, mother will accompany you back to the room to get it, okay?"

"Ok!"

Seeing Lin Xi's lovely smile like a flower, Mu Li also smiled at her, and walked towards the study.

On the contrary, Luo He didn't move. He looked at the back of Mu Li who was leaving gracefully, and then at Lin Xi who was being led to lunch by the servant, frowning in thought.

The moment the study door opened, Mu Li immediately saw that Lin Yisheng stood up almost by reflex, and walked towards her impatiently.

"Ali!" His voice was full of urgency.

Mu Li's eyes turned, and he looked left and right, avoiding Lin Yisheng who was facing him directly, and did not speak, but tried his best to observe and find out the strangeness.

The moment the door opened, she immediately noticed that the atmosphere in the room was very strange.

"A Li..." Lin Yisheng watched Mu Li avoid him and walked straight towards Lin Jinqian, the alienation from that slender figure made him feel sad.

Mu Li acted as if he didn't hear Lin Yisheng's whisper, and stood in front of Lin Jinqian, asking without any emotion: "Mr. Lin, what do you want from me?"

"I'm not the one looking for you." Lin Jinqian said lightly, rubbing the lobular red sandalwood beads.

Mu Liming woke up, turned around and asked Lin Yisheng: "What do you want from me?"

Lin Yisheng was a little distracted. Although Mu Li had always treated him so indifferently, at least he was not in front of Lin Jinqian.

He was a man, a man who vowed to take her back from Lin Jinqian, but her attitude made him feel that he had already lost.

Not by Lin Jinqian, but by her.

Still, he still misses her, and everything he does is for her.

"A Li, it's like this." Lin Yisheng collected his lost mood and tried to explain calmly, "I'm here now because you left something in the main house, and I'm here to return it to you. "

After the sound fell, Mu Li's body suddenly stiffened, his fair face turned pale, and he asked calmly, "What is it?"

Lin Yisheng's dark eyes were fixed on Mu Li's face without blinking for a moment. Her back was facing the floor-to-ceiling windows of the study, and the light was blocked behind her.

Is he thinking too much?Or, she has become so that he can not see clearly?

Lin Yisheng pursed his lips, took out the pink purse, and exposed it to the sight of the three, "You left it in the main house, and I will return it to you now."

Mu Li shook his head, his tone was calm but affirmative, "This is not mine."

Lin Yisheng was stunned, and raised his eyes to look at the calm Mu Li, speechless in surprise.

Mu Li blinked, with a relaxed expression, and said without burden: "Mine is at Xiaoxi's place. Xiaoxi likes it. I'll give it to Xiaoxi."

The tone is gentle, as if explaining a daily routine, it can't be calmer.

Lin Jinqian, who was sitting behind her, rolled his eyes slightly, closed his eyes, and silently turned the beads, and opened and closed his thin lips, silently chanting.

"A Li, are you sure?" Lin Yisheng asked again in disbelief, and approached Mu Li with his purse, "Take a closer look, is this purse really not yours?"

"No, I just gave it to Xiaoxi when she woke up, and watched her take it to lunch." Mu Li said calmly, looked at Lin Yisheng calmly, and asked, "How is this possible?" be mine?"

The watery brown pupils are calmer than the deep pool, without the slightest ripple, panic, or timidity, on the contrary, they are extremely firm.

Lin Yisheng stared at the eyes that were so close at hand, the eyes that had sunk into them when he stopped her at the gate of the police station at the age of 15, the eyes that had appeared countless times in his dreams for the past 11 years... He suddenly felt like looking at her again Can't see clearly, can't see through.

If she hesitated even for a second, he would believe what she said, but she was too firm.

Ali, we have known each other for half our lives, no matter how you change, some things will remain the same.

It was relatively silent for a while, and the study was extremely deserted.

"The one you are holding may belong to Xiaoxi." At this time, Lin Jinqian said flatly, "Xiaoxi has a set of clothes that are exactly the same. A few days ago, she wore it to play in the main house, and when she came back, she found that this purse was gone."

Mu Li turned his face to the side and looked at Lin Jinqian with some surprise. He closed his eyes, turned the prayer beads, and obviously rested with his eyes closed. He didn't expect him to speak for her.

"So that's how it is." Lin Yisheng put the purse that he was going to take back on the tatami, "Since it belongs to Xiaoxi, it's the same when it's delivered. Don't bother me when the things are delivered."

Without too many words of farewell, Lin Yisheng turned and left.

It wasn't until the sound of closing the door that Mu Li relaxed his tense nerves, staring absently at the closed door.

"Finally, where did you go last night?" Just as he was in a trance, a deep voice sounded from behind.
