Goodnight, elder brother and sister-in-law.

After saying goodnight to his elder brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Wei closed his diary, turned off the TV, and went back to his room to sleep.

The diary was placed back on the table in the room, and the wind blew in from the window, turning the pages of beautiful memories.

August 31, 1997, sunny.

I was very happy today. My older brother and sister-in-law and I went to the city for dinner. My sister-in-law served me a big bowl of turtle soup with chicken legs in it. It tasted very fragrant and rich.

I loved the taste the first time I tried it. It was a nice dessert after a meal, and it was the first ice cream my older brother ever bought for me. It was icy cold, sweet, and delicious.

We took a taxi home. The scenery outside the window was a little lower than when we were in brick trucks or trucks. The night sky had stars and the moon, illuminating our way. Three wonderful and happy firsts made up today's most colorful day.

On August 30, 1997, the sky was clear and blue.

Today we got a new appliance for our family, a washing machine. It's the first time I've ever seen a machine that washes clothes...

A table by the window under the moonlight.

Bai Lu rested her chin on one hand, watching the man who stood casually against the table, one hand in his pocket.

"Acheng, your relationship with Li Jianfeng is just so-so. Why would he send you such important news? Is it out of kindness, or is he trying to make a deal?"

Xiao Cheng slightly raised his cold eyes and softly reminded, "Your information was leaked to the big boss. It's not directly related to him, but it is indirectly related. Don't treat him like a good person."

By connecting the dots before and after the White Dew solar term, everything became clear to me.

It was no coincidence that the big boss's informant was in the group of people giving gifts to Li Jianfeng.

The chain reaction that followed was inevitable.

Bai Lu never considered Li Jianfeng a good person; she simply followed local customs and treated him like a madman.

A madman is unpredictable, acting entirely on a whim, sometimes good, sometimes bad, making him impossible to guard against.

In the end, it was discovered that everything was actually traceable, and the madman's plan was the most deeply hidden.

"He brought the torpedo before you came back. I didn't want it, so he stuffed it into my hand. I was thinking of dealing with it when you came back, so I buried it in the ground." Bai Lu felt it was necessary to explain to avoid any misunderstandings.

But after she finished speaking, she looked up and found that Xiao Cheng's expression hadn't improved much.

She seems a little angry.

His tone was still a bit somber: "You said last night that we should talk things out and be honest with each other."

You broke your promise!

Bai Lu's face flushed, she was incredibly embarrassed: "I forgot, it wasn't on purpose."

"I promise it won't happen again next time."

Her assurances were never valid, Xiao Cheng repeated the fact: "You didn't say that."

Moreover, Li Jianfeng is a man.

For some reason, Bai Lu noticed that Xiao Cheng's expression was a bit gloomy, and it grew increasingly gloomy.

It's just that I forgot to mention that I had some torpedoes hidden away. Is it really that serious?

"I really didn't mean to..." You came back from another province and went out drinking. After drinking, you turned into a child and disappeared the next day. When you came back at night, you were injured.

After that, so many things happened that I never had a chance to talk about it.

Bai Lu wanted to try to get leniency for confessing, but seeing the boss's increasingly gloomy expression, she felt a little guilty.

The rest of the story was inexplicably cut off.

But then she suddenly remembered something very important, and she felt she could try to argue her point: "You didn't come home when you came back, and you didn't tell me you were going out drinking."

Can these two things be discussed together?

Xiao Cheng's gloomy expression froze for a second. Looking at the girl's extremely serious face, he felt it was necessary to make her understand what it meant to prioritize.

A big grab.

It lifts the person directly from the chair.

"What are you trying to do... A gentleman uses words, not fists. Even if someone is angry and embarrassed, you can't bully them..."

Human.

Bai Lu wasn't bullied; she was just forced to change positions, from a chair to her lap.

His chin was grabbed, and the boss's dangerous eyes drew extremely close: "Who's bullying people?"

"Me!" Bai Lu, always a wise woman who knows when to yield, said, "We're all bullying each other."

Xiao Cheng couldn't help but laugh, but his laughter was icy, and his eyes became even more deep and dangerous.

"Don't you know why I drink?"

Bai Lu honestly shook her head: "I don't know."

Xiao Cheng tightened his grip, instantly closing the distance, and bit her: "Don't know?"

Bai Lu grabbed his shirt collar and retaliated with an even harder bite.

"How would I know if you didn't tell me? I only found out the truth this morning when your brother let it slip during our work discussion. You didn't tell me before."

"Only officials are allowed to set fires, while common people are forbidden even to light lamps! Don't even think about it! Dream on!"

It must be set to the maximum, the most powerful, and the brightest!

Xiao Cheng looked at Bai Lu's indignant little face, pursed his lips, and felt a clear sense of pain.

Ha... When a rabbit is cornered, it will not only bite, but it will also have sharp teeth and a sharp tongue.

"Which brother?" he asked in a chilling tone.

Bai Lu would not betray Wang Hao; she had to protect her brother's noble character of speaking his mind when impulsive.

"I don't remember."

"This is a small matter, not worth mentioning. Let's continue discussing what we haven't finished talking about, about our future."

Xiao Cheng remained unmoved: "Let's deal with the most important thing first."

"The future is the most important thing." Bai Lu tried to break free from the grip of his chin, but couldn't.

This guy is incredibly strong!

Xiao Cheng stared at Bai Lu's resentful little face and moved closer again: "Is honesty important?"

"Very important!"

Bai Lu pushed away the big boss's face that looked like he was about to eat her, fearing that if he took a bite, she wouldn't even be able to eat wontons tomorrow.

"Let me go first."

Xiao Cheng placed her on the table, spread his arms, and pressed down on the table to enclose a space.

Bai Lu didn't feel any different from before; the space was pitifully small, and he was right in front of her.
