Li Zhenruo didn't care much about Zhu Kai's kiss just now, what he was thinking about was Zhu Kai's saying that he knew a secret.
what secret? It must be a secret related to the Li family. Otherwise, Zhu Kai would not have to be so fussy, other secrets are meaningless to him.
So what kind of secret is it? Li Zhenruo felt that if he only relied on imagination, he would have no way to guess it.
Looking back, I wanted to find Zhu Kai again, but found that Zhu Kai had already caught a car on the side of the road and ran away. If you tell Li Zhenran that Li Zhenran is determined to find Zhu Kai, you may not be able to find him, but even if you find out, who can force him to do things that Zhu Kai doesn't want to say
Could this secret have anything to do with Li Zhenruo's death
Li Zhenruo guessed in his heart, is Zhu Kai going to deal with the Li family to help him avenge? It's impossible to think about it, Zhu Kai's feelings for him are not so deep yet.
Li Zhenruo felt that he couldn't figure it out, and squatted on the side of the road holding his head in pain. He suddenly remembered something that he had been thinking about before, and wanted to wait for the opportunity to go to Aunt Wu who left Li's house in a hurry and ask if she took the blood-stained sheet from her room at that time. paper towels, and who gave the paper towels to. Up to now, he felt that he had to wait for that opportunity, and it would be very difficult to wait for it. He was seduced by Zhu Kai's words, and suddenly had an idea that it was almost time to act.
It is not difficult to inquire about Aunt Wu's hometown and find her, but if she wants to go now, she has to find a way to deal with Li Zhenran.
How could Li Zhenran allow him to disappear for two or three days without saying hello
Li Zhenruo was a little distressed, he thought that Li Zhenran probably had some guesses about him, but he didn't know how much he knew. Before that, Li Zhenruo secretly thought that if Li Zhenran really asked one day, he would say that he had been favored by Li Zhenruo before, and now that his benefactor died, he still did not give up trying to find the murderer. But I didn't expect that until now, Li Zhenran hadn't asked a word, what was he thinking
Since Li Zhenran refused to ask, wouldn't it be better for him to take the initiative to hint to Li Zhenran
With such a little concern in mind, Li Zhenruo didn't go back to him until Li Zhenran got off work that afternoon. Later Li Zhenran called him and asked him where he was, Li Zhenruo said, "I'm hiding, come and find me."
Li Zhenruo still has a positioning collar around his neck, so Li Zhenran couldn't find him easily.
It's just that Li Zhenran was a little displeased when he heard his words, and said coldly: "You wait."
Almost an hour after hanging up the phone, Li Zhenran found Li Zhenruo in the woods outside Li's house. There is a swing hanging on a tree here. Li Zhenruo still remembers that it was when he was young. At that time, Li Zhentai and Li Zhenran had already grown a little, and they hung it up together.
Li Jianglin didn't allow them to come here to play, because the surrounding woods were too remote, and he was afraid that children would have accidents. However, Li Zhenruo and the others would still sneak out, as if exploring, exploring every corner of the woods.
However, when they grew up and had enough freedom, they lost interest in this forest and almost never went in again.
The old swing is still very strong, but the wooden boards underneath are a little rotten, and the forest is very humid. When Li Zhenruo touched it with his palm, he felt a little sticky.
Even so, he sat down on the swing, and kicked the ground with his feet a little nervously, causing the swing to shake slightly.
After a while, he heard the crisp sound of dry leaves being crushed, raised his head and looked forward, and saw Li Zhenran, still wearing a suit and leather shoes, walking in this direction with gentle steps.
Walking all the way to Li Zhenruo, Li Zhenran stopped, raised his head and looked around, and asked him, "How did you find this place?"
Li Zhenruo shook the swing, "Is this where you played when you were young?"
"Us?" Li Zhenran looked at him upon hearing the words, "Who are you referring to me and?"
Li Zhenruo took a deep breath and said to him, "You and Li Zhenruo."
After he said these three words, Li Zhenran was silent for a short while, the surrounding was very quiet, only the sound of insects could be heard in the distance, monotonous and even more secluded. In this dense grove, the sun cannot shine in, and the light is dim, as if they are isolated from the world.
Li Zhenran put his arms around his chest and asked him, "Why Li Zhenruo?"
For some reason, Li Zhenruo flinched a little suddenly. He changed the subject and said, "I met Zhu Kai today, and he told me something."
Li Zhenran stretched out his hand towards the top of Li Zhenruo's head.
"Huh?" Li Zhenruo was taken aback for a moment.
Li Zhenran just picked off a fallen leaf from his head and asked him, "What did he tell you?"
Li Zhenruo couldn't help but raised his hand to touch the top of his head, and said, "Zhu Kai said that he knows a secret about the Li family."
Li Zhenran still held the dead leaf in his hand, and looked at Li Zhenruo: "What secret?"
Li Zhenruo said, "Do you think he will tell me?"
Li Zhenran didn't seem to be at all curious about what secret Zhu Kai was telling. Maybe he didn't believe that Zhu Kai could say anything serious. He bent slightly, pinched Li Zhenruo's jaw and made him look up. Looking at himself, "Why are you so interested in our Li family's affairs?"
If it was changed before, Li Zhenruo would have said casually: Isn't it because of you
But today, Li Zhenruo was silent for a short while, and said, "Because I want to know how Li Zhenruo died." After saying this, Li Zhenruo felt his heart beating wildly. The movement of saliva, the eyes are still fixed on Li Zhenran.
Sure enough, Li Zhenran was not surprised, but his eyes became sharper, and he said to Li Zhenruo, "How did Li Zhenruo die, what does it have to do with you?"
Li Zhenruo said: "I have a positioning collar on me, you always know where I go, don't you?"
Li Zhenran said frankly: "I know a little bit, and I don't have time to stare at you 24 hours a day."
Li Zhenruo couldn't help but said, "Then why don't you ask me?"
Li Zhenran suddenly let out a long breath, and said to Li Zhenruo: "What do you want me to ask you? What is your relationship with Li Zhenruo? What is your purpose in sneaking into the Li family? You—why do you want to approach me?" The last sentence was Li Zhenran whispered in Li Zhenruo's ear.
Li Zhenruo was taken aback when he heard the words, and stood up suddenly, "I'm not..." He stopped halfway through the sentence. He originally wanted to say that I didn't approach you for any reason, but he immediately remembered that he approached Li Zhenran in the first place The purpose of this was originally to find out the truth about his being killed, not for what he wanted to say now.
Even before meeting Zhu Kai today, he didn't intend to show his cards to Li Zhenran to let Li Zhenran know that he was investigating Li Zhenruo's affairs. He chose this time without careful consideration and planning, and it was more or less a temporary impulse.
He was a little apprehensive and uneasy, all he thought about was whether Li Zhenran would doubt his identity, and how he would make up a lie to embellish his identity to make Li Zhenran believe that he was just a cat demon who wanted to repay Li Zhenruo.
However, Li Zhenran did not expect that the following three questions would be followed by Li Zhenran.
Li Zhenran looked at him with cold eyes, waiting for his answer.
Li Zhenruo took a deep breath and said: "It was an accident that I came to Li's house, but I deliberately wanted to stay in Li's house to try to find out the real cause of Si Shao's death, but I didn't approach you for this reason." Pause, "As for me and Li Zhenruo, he once saved my life."
When he said the last sentence, Li Zhenruo was shaken for a moment. The sudden impulse made him want to confess to Li Zhenran, but at the last moment he still flinched. For some reason, he was a little afraid to see Li Zhenran know the truth The expression of time.
He is a cat. He doesn't know how long he can maintain his human form with the help of external spiritual power. In the past, he always wanted to wait for him to avenge himself, and then leave the Li family to find someone to adopt him and take care of him. Today he heard that After hearing Xia Hongshen's words, he thought that he might be able to practice with Xia Hongshen. Even if he couldn't become a powerful monster, he could at least live for a few more years; What will happen with Li Zhenran in the end.
He used to feel that he was using Li Zhenran to sell his body, but now when he heard Li Zhenran's questioning, he felt guilty again. Li Zhenruo was very confused and couldn't figure out a clear idea.
Li Zhenran said: "So the purpose of you approaching me is to find out who is the murderer who killed the fourth child?"
Li Zhenruo couldn't help retorting, "I said I didn't approach you for this."
He looked up at Li Zhenran, but felt that Li Zhenran's expression was cold and hard, as if he didn't believe him at all.
Li Zhenruo felt a little resentful, and said, "I—"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard Li Zhenran sigh softly, with some melancholy and dispirited.
Li Zhenruo was taken aback for a moment, seeing Li Zhenran reached out and gently touched his face, then turned around and left stepping on a pile of dead leaves.
How could it be like this
Li Zhenruo sat down on the swing, but in the end he just raised his hand to cover his head in a state of upset.
When he returned to Li's house, Li Zhenran had already finished his meal and went upstairs.
Li Zhenruo's clothes were old clothes borrowed from Song Jun. There was no way to take them back to Li's house, so he had to take them off and fold them neatly on the swing, planning to find a way to get them tomorrow.
Back at the door of the house, Li Zhenruo rubbed the cat's paws on the mat at the door, intending to wipe off the dirt on it, but when Wang Ma saw him, she said, "Why did you come back so late, and go out every day to become a wild cat."
After speaking, he picked him up and took him to the bathroom to wash his feet.
The rice bowl was still full of cat food, so he took two bites closer and felt that he couldn't swallow it. He walked slowly to the stairs and looked in the direction of the third floor, but he couldn't see anything.
The house was very quiet, the boss and Zhu Kai were not there, Wen Chun just glanced at him after dinner, then went upstairs in silence.
Wang Ma was sitting on the sofa watching TV and knitting a sweater, while Li Jianglin went out for a walk by himself. He has limited mobility and often doesn't go far, but just walks around the room.
Li Zhenruo wanted to go upstairs to find Li Zhenran, but he hesitated when he stepped on the stairs with one leg. He knew why Li Zhenran was angry, but Li Zhenruo still felt unable to face those problems calmly until now, what Li Zhenran said Yes, he was approaching him on purpose and using his identity to do things for himself.
But Li Zhenran shouldn't have guessed these things long ago, right? But why did it suddenly come up now, or did Li Zhenran always have a grudge, but never mentioned it, just waiting for him to confess to him
Thinking of this, Li Zhenruo couldn't help feeling a little regretful, thinking that if he had told Li Zhenran earlier, would he not be so angry
Feeling gloomy, Li Zhenruo hesitated to go upstairs, and finally squatted down against the wall.
It’s really like squatting down, with the two hind legs bent, the back against the wall and the round buttocks sitting on the ground. Unfortunately, the two forelimbs are not long enough, and the body is too round, so I can’t hug my legs. Failed to stick to the knee. Besides, he has no knees.
Even melancholy and ridiculous posture made Li Zhenruo feel even worse.
Wang Ma occasionally turned her head to look at him, so she was stunned, looked at him carefully for a while, and called out, "Tuanzi?"
Li Zhenruo looked up at her.
Wang Ma was puzzled, "Why are you in this posture?"
Li Zhenruo couldn't answer, so he lowered his head again.
After a while, Li Jianglin came back from the outside on crutches, walked up to him and stopped, panting slightly.
Li Zhenruo looked up at him.
Li Jianglin was a little strange, and asked Wang Ma, "What's the matter?"
Wang Ma said, "I don't know, maybe I'm in a bad mood."
Li Zhenruo felt even more depressed when he heard their conversation.
It was inconvenient for Li Jianglin to squat down, so he raised his crutches and lightly touched the top of Li Zhenruo's head. Li Zhenruo's eyes were filled with tears. This physiological reaction came very easily, and immediately soaked the fluff under the eyes.
Li Jianglin seemed to feel sorry for him, and said to Wang Ma, "Ask the second child to take the cat back."
Wang Ma said hello, stood up from the sofa, and walked upstairs.
Li Jianglin went back to the room by himself.
After a while, Li Zhenruo heard a knock on the door on the third floor, and then Li Zhenran opened the door to talk to Wang Ma. The voice came down the stairs very clearly.
Wang Ma told Li Zhenran that something was wrong with his cat and asked Li Zhenran to take a look, Li Zhenran said, "Leave him alone."
After speaking, Li Zhenran closed the door.
Li Zhenruo felt sad when she heard Wang Ma's footsteps going downstairs. She got up and ran towards the living room window, and then jumped out of the open window.
He didn't want to go somewhere, but he was depressed, staying at home with Wang Ma caring, but it was even more uncomfortable. He came out of the window and walked towards the yard with his tail drooping, and saw Zhu Kai's Erhuang lying motionless in his kennel from a distance.
Erhuang was very quiet recently, probably because he hadn't seen his owner for several days, the whole dog seemed depressed, and it also saw Li Zhenruo from a distance, but it just slapped its ears lightly, and didn't stand up.
Li Zhenruo suddenly felt a bit of sympathy with it, and walked slowly towards its kennel until he stopped in front of it.
Even though Erhuang was in a bad mood, he reluctantly raised his tail and shook his welcome to Li Zhenruo.
Li Zhenruo turned around around him, rolled himself up against it and lay down on his stomach, leaning his head on it. Unexpectedly, Erhuang noticed Li Zhenruo's movements, and even lay down on his side, letting him lean on his soft and warm belly.
Li Zhenruo moved his head comfortably, and exhaled heavily, which sounded like a sigh.
He thought to himself: Even the dog at home is gentler than Li Zhenran. As a pet cat, his life is really a bit pathetic.
After lying down for a while, because it was too comfortable, Li Zhenruo fell asleep with his eyes closed.
When I woke up again, it was already dark, and the street lamp in front of me was emitting a soft light. Erhuang kept lying on his side without moving. When he realized that Li Zhenruo was awake, he turned his head and licked the top of his head.
It was rare for Li Zhenruo not to dislike it. He lowered his head and rubbed against its neck, then got up and ran towards the swimming pool. From the swimming pool, you can see the window of Li Zhenran's room as soon as you look up. Even though it was not too late, the lights in the room had already been turned off.
Li Zhenruo didn't know if he was already asleep or had gone out, so he couldn't help but become curious, hesitated a little, and went to climb along the pipe to the third floor.
He hadn't climbed the window for a long time, and his movements were a little rusty. He climbed to the third floor with difficulty and found that the window was closed. Just as she put her face on the window and looked in, she suddenly saw Li Zhenran standing in front of the window, raising her hand to push the window.
As soon as the window was pushed open, Li Zhenruo, who had just climbed up to the third floor, was knocked into the air and fell down.
His heart was cold, and he said silently: Li Zhenran, you are ruthless!
