Chapter 45 She Lost Use Value

Mu Li stared blankly at the closed door, but what appeared in front of her was the moment before, when Lin Yisheng was staring into her eyes.

It was dark, like the eyes of bright stars in the dark night.

11 years ago, she was attracted by such a pair of eyes, and put all her heart and soul into it recklessly. Over the years, she did not dare to think about it, but it does not mean that she has forgotten it.

But the reality has abruptly opened an insurmountable gap between them. After living for 26 years, there has never been any moment more sober than this time. No matter what happens in the future, it is impossible for them to be together.

She will eventually grow old alone, but he should have his own future.

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

Mu Li looked down, caught a glimpse of the purse on the tatami from the corner of his eye, and said calmly, "I didn't go anywhere."

"It's not a wise choice to lie to me, Mu Li, you were lying next to me last night. I don't know if you woke up?" Lin Jinqian raised his voice, showing his displeasure at being deceived .

"I advise you to tell the truth, maybe there is a way to save it."

Mu Li stared at the purse without blinking, with a lot of thoughts in her heart. She stood up straight and looked up at the dazzling array of books.

Should she tell Lin Jinqian?Tell him, will he help her or ignore her?
After a long time, she slightly opened her lips and said, "When I found her, she was already dead..."

……

Lin Yisheng came downstairs, and when he passed through the front hall, he heard the little girl's "giggle" laughter like silver bells from the restaurant on one side, and stopped involuntarily.

"She was kidnapped and imprisoned for more than half a year. Later, your elder brother found her. When she was found, she was five months pregnant."

"She stayed in Lihuaxi to raise her baby. Your eldest brother didn't let anyone see her, but later, she was born prematurely and gave birth to a dead baby."

……

His mother's voice echoed in his ears, bringing him back to the nightmare that Muli had experienced.

No matter how long it had passed, he couldn't imagine how she, who was as innocent as her, spent one desperate night after another during those dark days of being imprisoned?
With this in mind, the unhappiness that happened in the study gradually dissipated.

He shouldn't blame Ali for being fickle, he has no position to blame her for anything.

"Uncle Luo, can I wear the same clothes as my mother and go to the kindergarten to participate in activities?" Lin Xi's excited voice came again, full of anticipation and joy.

Lin Yisheng was attracted by the joy, and walked towards the restaurant unconsciously.

"Of course, next time there is an activity in the kindergarten, just tell Dad about it." Luo He comforted.

"Whoa whoa, that's great! That's great! I must go with my mother!"

Lin Xi was so happy that she almost flew up, she sat on the chair, her small body just reached the edge of the dining table, her head was exposed, but she was waving her pink purse happily.

That purse was exactly the same as the one he had just put in his study.

After a moment of hesitation, Lin Yisheng walked towards Lin Xi, he decided not to worry about the ownership of the purse anymore, besides, Mu Li has nothing to do with human life, this is what he looks forward to the most, isn't it?
"Uncle Six." When Lin Xi saw Lin Yisheng, she put away her waving little hands and called obediently.

Lin Yisheng smiled like a warm spring sun. He came to Lin Xi's side, touched her little head, and said softly, "What delicious food does Xiao Xi eat?"

"I'm drinking fish soup. Uncle Six, Auntie specially added milk to cook the fish soup. It's delicious. Uncle Six, would you like to have a sip?" Lin Xi said, picking up her bowl, and pouring the spoon into it He ladles the soup and brings it to Lin Yisheng's mouth.

This child is really painful, Lin Yisheng was warmed by her actions, and the previous unhappiness completely dissipated.

He rubbed the little girl's head again, with a sincere smile on his face, and said patiently: "Uncle Six has something else to do, so I won't drink. Uncle Six will drink again some other day."

Lin Xi nodded obediently, and put down the bowl, "Uncle Six, are you leaving now?"

"Let's go now, Uncle Six will come back another day."

Lin Xi jumped off the stool, stood in front of Lin Yisheng, raised her head and said solemnly: "Uncle Six, are you going back to grandpa's place now, or going to work?"

Lin Yisheng squatted down, level with the little girl, "Uncle Six is ​​going to Grandpa's place, is Xiao Xi going with Uncle Six?"

Lin Xi shook her head like a rattle, "Mom is back, I want to stay at home with my mother. Uncle Six, can you do me a favor?"

"What are you busy with?"

Lin Xi grabbed the purse on the stool, and handed it to Lin Yisheng, "Help me take this little purse to the main house and give it to a sister, okay?"

Lin Yisheng was slightly taken aback, staring at the pink purse in bewilderment.

"The last time I went to my grandfather's place, a sister said that she liked the pouch on my skirt very much. I promised to give it to her, but I didn't know where it went. I just found it now."

Sending a purse... Listening to Lin Xi's sweet and glutinous voice, Lin Yisheng became even more confused. He asked himself that these years of training in the family and in the mall made him no longer as dull as he was when he was young. Why can't he understand now? up?
"Uncle Six, help me to that sister, okay?"

Lin Yisheng hesitated to take the purse, and asked, "Which sister do you want to give it to?"

"Hmm..." Lin Xi's face was troubled, her pink mouth was puckered, she thought for a while, and finally remembered, "That sister, I don't know her name! But there is a scar on her forehead, just It's... right here on the left."

Lin Xi pointed to the upper left corner of her forehead, gesticulating vigorously with her immature little fingers.

Lin Yisheng was speechless in shock. There was a scar on the upper left corner of his forehead?Isn't that the maid who died on the back hill?

"Uncle Six?"

"Hey." Lin Yisheng came back to his senses, put away all his doubts, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Uncle Six will send you there."

"Thank you Uncle Six, you are so kind!" The little girl not only had a sweet mouth, but also warm-hearted gestures. After thanking Lin Yisheng, she didn't forget to give Lin Yisheng a hug. She was really good at pleasing people.

Lin Yisheng patted her little back, and left Lihuaxi quickly without staying too long.

Luo He sent him all the way to the temporary parking lot, watched his car drive away, and then turned back to the villa.

In the study, Mu Li sat on the tatami, staring out the window in a daze.

She said everything she had to say, but Lin Jinqian still had an attitude of indifference and disbelief, and she didn't want to waste any more words.

It's useless to say more about people who don't have a sense of trust.

It was during the silence that Lin Jinqian said flatly: "You'd better pray that the purse is returned, and this matter will be over with you, otherwise, if you refuse to tell me the truth, I can't help you even if I want to."

"I'm telling the truth." Murray said without changing his expression.

Lin Jinqian smiled faintly, "Since you didn't kill the man, why did you hide it?"

"I just don't want to get involved for no reason, I can't afford it."

"Can't bear the consequences of being involved in the case, or can't bear the crime of conspiring with others to kill someone?"

Mu Li was stunned, his face turned pale, she was so unbearable in his eyes?Forget it, if you don't hold out hope, you won't be disappointed. It's because she expects too much.

Taking a deep breath, she said calmly: "I didn't kill anyone, and I don't know who killed her. I just couldn't sleep, and wanted to relax around, and then I ran into that scene."

"Then why didn't you make a sound at that time? Why did you run back and wash all the dirt off your shoes in the bathroom? Why did you pretend?" Lin Jinqian asked aggressively, his black eyes determined, as if he had decided that she had something to do with the murder.

"If I speak out, will your Lin family be willing to see me?" Mu Li trembled slightly, clenched his fists, and asked sadly.

No, not only did he not want to see her, but he would even take this opportunity to kick her out and make room for Ling Shu as the eldest daughter-in-law.

She can't gamble because she can't afford to lose.

Lin Jinqian let out a deep breath, but said with a rare smile: "I haven't seen you for six years, you are really surprising. Although you are still a pawn for your father to gain benefits, you are able to think carefully and endure humiliation."

"To celebrate grandpa's birthday yesterday, I thought you would lose your composure and show your face at the banquet in order to preserve your identity as Mrs. Lin."

"These six years have not been in vain."

Mu Li looked sideways, she could understand the meaning of Lin Jinqian's words, she just wanted to say that she was no longer the reckless and reckless girl she used to be, and became not only calm, but even lying.

Changes are real. She has studied psychology for so many years, and the most taboo thing she has is to deceive herself and others.

"People change, Mr. Lin, and you are no exception. I haven't seen you for six years. I thought that your dislike for me would only be worse than that. I didn't expect that you not only agreed to let me stay in Lihuaxi, but also Take me to the main house."

"Six years ago when I married into the Lin family, I never visited the main house. Six years later, I became notorious and was not accepted by the family, but you took me there."

Just happened to come across this tragedy.

Lin Jinqian twirled the small-leaf red sandalwood Buddha beads, neither happy nor sad, as if he had attained Taoism and ascended to immortality, he just said in his usual indifferent tone: "Before you and I officially divorce, you are still the eldest daughter-in-law, I will take you there Wishing you a happy birthday is your duty."

Is that all?Mu Li didn't believe it, and an unusually strong premonition told her that was not the case.

She restrained the uneasiness and bewilderment churning in her body, remained silent for a few seconds, and asked again: "Why did you choose me in the first place?"

Ever since I learned that it was Lin Jinqian who chose her back then, this question popped up from time to time.

Is she beautiful?Mu Li is self-aware, and knows that a face like hers can be regarded as handsome at best, not to mention the beauty of the country and the beauty of the country.

Could it be that she is well educated and reasonable enough to be the daughter-in-law of Lin's family?This question is self-defeating. If she can pick the leader, why is Ling Shu still showing up now?
If not, then why?
Lin Jinqian turned a deaf ear to this, and after pondering for a moment, he asked instead: "Why are you staying in Lihuaxi now?"

"To fulfill my mother's last wish, to find out the truth of the year." Mu Li answered without the slightest doubt.

"In this case, then work hard, don't ask what you shouldn't know, and I will tell you what you should know."

Again!There was a fire in Mu Li's heart, but she couldn't let it out, and it burned her every internal organ.

She wanted to ask again, but Lin Jinqian took out a document from the shelf beside her, "Since you want to accomplish your two goals, show some sincerity."

"What do you mean?"

"This is a bidding document. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it, as long as you know what to do."

Lin Jinqian asked her to help with something?Mu Li stood up suspiciously, stepped forward to take the bidding document in his hand, and when he blocked his eyes, he saw a logo printed on the cover, with the word "Keliang" written on the bottom.

She doesn't know much about the big families in Rongcheng, let alone the big and small affairs in the mall.

What "Keliang" is, she has never heard of it.

"What do you want me to do?" Murray asked.

Lin Jinqian twirled the beads and explained in a low voice, "Before you lose your value, help me with one thing."

Mu Li looked embarrassed, and looked directly at Lin Jinqian's indifferent face without concealing his anger.

I saw that he smiled instead of anger, and seemed to be in a good mood, "Once the matter of the purse is found out on you, I think you will be of little value. Maybe it will help you achieve your goals.”
