Maybe it was the stars falling from the sky. When I woke up early in the morning, the sky in Sijiu City was covered with clouds, as if it was about to collapse. Xiao Zheng dragged his luggage and headed straight to the airport with Lao Lin.
Bai Zhengqing's memorial service was held two days later. In other words, Xiao Zheng's trip will take at least three days. So it is necessary to bring some change of clothes.
However, because of the occasion, all the clothes Lao Lin prepared were black. Including herself, she is also wearing an all-black women's suit.
The plane landed, when Xiao Zheng and the two came out of the airport. I unexpectedly encountered Autumn Harvest...
What's even more shocking is that they actually took the same flight to Baicheng.
"Boss Xiao, what a coincidence."
Qiu Shuo, dressed in an enchanting cheongsam outfit, walked towards her with a slight smile between her brows and eyes. But his eyes passed over Lao Lin's face inadvertently. She exclaimed: "What a beauty."
Lin Huayin, who was dressed in black and wore a pair of wide sunglasses on her beautiful face, looked away and did not answer.
She knew who Autumn Harvest was. Regardless of whether it was from the news, Lin Xiaozhu's words, or even Xiao Zheng's explanation. Even though this was her first time encountering Autumn Harvest, she didn't feel unfamiliar at all.
Of course, just because she was no stranger, she took her innate arrogance to the extreme. Even the afterglow behind sunglasses did not grant the autumn harvest.
Faced with Lin Huayin's attitude of rejecting others, Autumn Harvest is not unusual. The daughter who combines the excellent genes of Lin Laoyao and Ye Yuhua is not too arrogant. It’s not beautiful if it’s too impersonal.
Xiao Zheng said politely, "Boss Qiu is coming to Baicheng on business?"
"My purpose in coming to Baicheng is the same as yours." Qiu Shuang said meaningfully. The corners of the scarlet lips were slightly raised. Slightly playful.
Bai Zhengqing's death may be hidden from some outsiders, or people for whom all channels are not enough. But there is absolutely no way that a boss of the Lin family like Qiu Shuang could hide it. What's more, her most feared identity is that of a descendant of the Zhao family.
Even Chunsheng and Xia Chang are willing to be her bodyguards. Qiu Shuo's status in the Zhao family is obvious.
"As far as I know, Boss Qiu has no relationship with the Bai family, right?" Xiao Zheng said defensively. The purpose of this trip was frankly revealed.
"Boss Xiao also knows that I only work for Boss Lin. The boss asked me to attend the memorial service, how can I refuse?" Qiu Shuang narrowed his beautiful eyes of ecstasy, playing with the taste. "Although I don't like the occasion."
Xiao Zheng nodded lightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Lao Lin was standing aside calmly, but he was a little frightened in his heart. I was afraid that Lao Lin would be unhappy after waiting for a long time. Hurry to end this conversation that has no nutrition and only leaves intrigue. Holding Lao Lin's bare hand, he walked out of the airport. Leave the autumn harvest ruthlessly at the crowded airport.
"Lin Huayin?" Qiu Shou narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, with a devilish smile on her beautiful, slightly hazy face. "What a great name."
…
In the car heading to the hotel, Xiao Zheng just sat quietly next to Lao Lin, silently observing her micro-expressions.
After a while, Xiao Zheng discovered that there was nothing unusual about Lao Lin. My heart relaxed slightly, but I also laughed at myself.
"She's cunning."
Lin Huayin, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up. I gave Autumn Harvest a fairly fair evaluation.
"Not only cunning, but also vicious." Xiao Zheng stepped on him hard. "When I was in New York, I killed a few men just because they looked at her a few times."
Lin Huayin did not continue discussing this topic. She adheres to the rule of law, although she does not stop Xiao Zheng from doing things in his own way. But at least he won't be led astray.
After checking into the hotel, Lin Huayin packed his luggage while Xiao Zheng answered the phone. It was an instruction call from Ye Zanghua. And revealed a piece of news to Xiao Zheng.
"Your mother-in-law is also here in Baicheng. Let's meet up sometime." Ye Zanghua's deep voice came from the other side of the phone. "The old man has analyzed it. This incident is very deep. There may be trouble."
Xiao Zheng felt something in his heart and nodded: "I understand."
After a pause, he asked again: "It's not convenient for me to ask Uncle Bai about the cause of Bai Zhengqing's death. Has Mr. Ye made a statement?"
This statement is very straightforward, and it can be regarded as asking for information.
Ye Zanghua on the other end of the phone just sighed softly and said: "It's hard to say. The current situation is too complicated, and the old man has retired for many years. Many actual situations are not well understood."
After a pause, Ye Zanghua narrowed his eyes and said, "Azheng, I'll give you a heads up."
"Huh?" Xiao Zheng became interested.
"Pay attention to Bai Ziwen." Ye Zanghua said every word. "This man is very evil. He was originally at the helm of the Bai family back then, but for unknown reasons, Bai Wuxia just took over. When it comes to business acumen, Bai Ziwen is stronger than his brother who is obsessed with martial arts."
"These are the old man's exact words."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Zheng's expression became more solemn.
Listening to what Ye Zanghua said, this incident may not only be arranged by the descendants of the Zhao family, but may even be an internal conflict within the Bai family.
Shaking his head, Xiao Zheng put away these chaotic thoughts. If he thought about it any longer, he was afraid that his head would explode.
Because he came in a low-key manner, the Bai family was not notified in advance. The two rested for a while in the hotel, and Xiao Zheng accompanied Lao Lin to a nearby restaurant for dinner.
After dealing with it briefly, Xiao Zheng suggested going to Bai's house to see if there was anyone who could help. Lin Huayin shook his head and said: "Uncle Bai can take care of the funeral. I will go directly to attend the memorial service. You can go and take a look now."
This incident was full of mystery. Lin Huayin knew that Xiao Zheng must be curious and did not stop him.
After seeing Lao Lin back to the hotel, Xiao Zheng took a car to Bai's house.
The address of a building named Baiyun Villa.
Because the Bai family has a prominent position in Baicheng, and the Baiyun Villa once hosted the No. 1 leader's southern inspection tour. Although I only stayed there for one day, it also showed how much Director No. 1 valued Bai Zhengqing back then. and the economic development of Baicheng.
This elder of the Bai family has witnessed the historical rise and fall of China and its economic prosperity and development. His sudden death is bound to cause a national sensation.
As far as Xiao Zheng knew, many military and political leaders had entrusted their deputies to be present at the memorial service. It is foreseeable that this will be the largest memorial service in China in recent years.
"Little brother, not everyone can come to Baiyun Villa." The middle-aged brother persuaded him kindly. "If you come to visit, be sure not to get too close. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."
Xiao Zheng, who was sitting in the back row, smiled and said, "Thank you for reminding me, I'll just take a look."
"Yes. Mr. Bai who lives there is our benefactor in Baicheng. Over the years, he has used a lot of money for charity. He has also promoted the economic development of Baicheng. He is an amazing person." Brother De sighed.
"I know." Xiao Zheng's eyes became slightly solemn and he pursed his lips. "I also respect him as an old man."
