Bai Ye stood beside the stack of documents like a vicious dog, staring at the two people in front of him.
Su Yi shrank his shoulders, feeling that this guy might bar his teeth like a dog and pounce on him to bite him. His expression was so scary.
But you still have to read the file, maybe there will be some new exploration...
Su Yi walked over timidly, her skirt fluttering like a trailing petal of an Epiphyllum, to Bai Ye's side. He looked straight ahead, bent down, reached out and turned the first page of the document, pretending not to see the vicious dog standing next to him...
This is the real estate data from 1998, and the next one is from 1997...
Su Yi looked at it seriously, flipping the papers in his hands, which made Bai Ye upset. When he lowered his head, he saw that Su Yi's thin body was completely included in his tall shadow, small like a white lamb.
——The open square collar of the wedding dress revealed a large area of fair and tender skin. She was slightly bent in front of him without any defense. The translucent veil fell on her chest, and her delicate and beautiful collarbone was faintly visible. She looked like she was waiting for the wolf to pounce on her, but he was unaware of it and was still concentrating on reading some documents.
Bai Ye suddenly felt hot and annoyed. He had no intention of following the plot and just wanted to start a night parade of demons to kill people to his heart's content.
Bai Ye turned his eyes away from Su Yi and was just about to look somewhere else to cool down when he saw the young master sitting in a wheelchair, looking at him with an unfathomable expression.
His anxiety index soared, and Bai Ye suddenly realized that by the time the second round of concentrated reasoning was over, it would probably be almost midnight, and by the time they went to bed late at night, the bride and groom would have to enter the bridal chamber.
Su Yi is still wearing this wedding dress and sleeping in the same bed with that disabled loser!
Just imagining this scene makes the night unbearable. A soft, wide bed, a beautiful bride lying in a velvet quilt, sleeping with a disabled old man...
Clack.
Su Yi was reading a document when he suddenly heard the sound of his hand knuckles rubbing against each other.
He raised his head and saw Bai Ye beside him emitting a terrifying aura. His hands were clenched into fists, so tightly that even the knuckles made a clicking sound.
...Looks extremely angry. Su Yi feels that if a ghost were to appear right now, the ghost would definitely be torn into pieces by Bai Ye.
This guy...why is he so angry?
Su Yi couldn't understand. In his impression, the high school Bai Ye was cold and indifferent. He didn't seem to care about anything and it was impossible for him to be angry with him.
"Can't find it?"
The magician came over and wanted to stick close to Su Yi to help him find the documents.
Suddenly a long arm stretched out, firmly and powerfully blocking the magician's way.
Bai Ye: "Stay away from him."
His tone was so cold that ice chips could fall off. Any normal person would stay away from him and would not dare to provoke the angry Bai Shen.
The magician stood there with his arms folded, looking nonchalant, and looked back at me like I was a kid: "Why, second brother, help your sister-in-law find some documents, what's the problem?"
"You still know that he is your sister-in-law?" Bai Ye sneered, "Pay attention to ethics."
"Alright, you've learned to cry wolf." The magician chuckled, "How dare you criticize me? You have a map of the secret passage to your sister-in-law's room in your pocket."
Bai Ye frowned.
Su Yi looked up at Bai Ye when he heard the map of the secret passage. He remembered that the eldest young master had told him in the cloakroom that there was a secret passage behind it, and the starting point was the room of the heir of the Bai family. In other words, as long as Bai Ye wanted, he could run into his cloakroom at any time, and then go through the peephole above...
"He's talking nonsense."
Bai Ye said under Su Yi's gaze, like a dog who refused to admit his mistake.
Su Yi didn't have time to argue with him now, and he didn't want the magician's help. These people would only make things worse. He searched for the files seriously, 1995, 1993...
"I found this!" Miss Peng's voice rang out from the study:
"Here is a notarized document for you all to see: In 1997, Mr. Bai and Xiu Zhenhong jointly invested in and operated XX Company. The company is the property of the couple, and any profits should be shared. This is hereby notarized."
Young Master Bai: "This is my mother's name."
Maid Lin: "So, your mother, Xiu Zhenhong, has been with Master Bai since at least 1997. Has anyone found any earlier documents?"
"This way."
Su Yi squatted down and pulled out a thin document from the bottom. The corners had already turned yellow:
"I found a property certificate. In 1987, Mr. Bai and Lin Xiu jointly purchased a property."
Several players immediately came over to take a look. They opened the maroon cover of the property certificate and saw that the document pages inside had turned yellow. There were two old black-and-white photos attached to them. They were of Mr. Bai when he was young and another strange woman.
Maid Lin turned around and asked the magician: "Is this Lin Xiu your mother?"
The magician nodded.
"That's right." Maid Lin said, "The magician should not have lied. Lin Xiu should be Mr. Bai's first wife, Xiu Zhenhong is the second, and she gave birth to the eldest young master..."
"That's not right. The eldest son is the oldest of the three children." Planner Peng turned around and asked the eldest son, Bai:
"You have no impression of the name Lin Xiu? Because you said your mother Xiu Zhenhong was your first wife, but in fact, Master Bai should have been with Lin Xiu before."
Bai Da Shao: "I don't know."
Peng planned: "Isn't this bigamy? You rich people are really scumbags."
"Is it possible..." Maid Lin said, "Is it Bai? The master was with this Lin Xiu before but they didn't get married and registered. This makes sense. Xiu Zhenhong is the first legal wife."
"Wait!" The old pastor suddenly had an idea. He narrowed his eyes suspiciously and pointed at the maid Lin: "Your last name is Lin, and this Lin Xiu is also last name Lin?"
"…No, my last name is Lin because I am born with that last name. It's not something the game assigns to me. What does this have to do with the plot?"
"No, no, no, they are related." The old pastor immediately took two steps away from Maid Lin. "I now officially suspect you. It is definitely not that simple for the system to select people with the surname Lin. The three people who pretended to be the Bai brothers can't be real brothers, but because they all have the surname Bai, they were selected to match the plot. So you must be related to this Lin Xiu! You are hiding something!"
Maid Lin smiled speechlessly: "If you want to say that to me, I really can't explain it."
Old priest: "Players who are not murderers cannot lie. Do you dare to say in front of everyone that you have never concealed a single word from the beginning to now?"
Maid Lin didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.
The old pastor said: "Look, you don't dare. I think there must be something wrong with Lin Xiu. Why did you hide it? And why did you return to the Bai family at this critical moment? I guess Lin Xiu must have a grudge against Master Bai. You and the magician are both her children. She may be here for revenge..."
Su Yi stood there at a loss, surrounded by the chattering arguments. In fact, he hadn't finished speaking yet...
If someone with an extroverted personality were to raise his voice by an octave, he would immediately shout, "I haven't finished yet! Everyone, please listen to me!" This would solve the problem. But for people with social phobia, this seems to be a luxury.
The voices of these people became increasingly shrill. Maid Lin was irritated by the old pastor's repeated suspicions, but these suspicions were justified. Even Miss Peng, who had been having a passionate affair with Maid Lin, had some doubts.
Postman Fang looked at the situation. He didn't like those two women and felt that Lawyer Chen's death was related to them. So he turned to the old pastor and suspected that there was something wrong with maid Lin. Why did she keep it a secret? Why didn't she tell anyone about Lin Xiu?
The noise was getting more and more intense. Su Yi was surrounded and tried to speak several times, but couldn't get a word in. His head began to buzz. He repeated to himself countless times: Everyone stop arguing. I haven't finished speaking yet. Please listen to me continue.
His delicate lips moved, but he couldn't say a single word of such a simple sentence. Su Yi tried hard for a while, and suddenly...
"Be quiet."
Bai Ye suddenly said.
The cold voice was like an ice knife, cutting off all the noisy chatter.
The study immediately became quiet.
The quarreling players stopped and saw Su Xinniang, who was holding the property certificate, looking hesitant and as if she had something else to say.
"Well, sorry, I didn't finish what I said before." Su Yi took the opportunity to say, "There is another piece of paper in the interlayer of the property certificate--"
He pulled out a yellowed piece of paper from the cover of the property certificate and spread it out for everyone:
This is an A4 photocopy, which reads: Lin Xiu promises to voluntarily transfer the ownership of Pa Island to Master Bai.
“…Pa Island?”
Bai Ye frowned. He had a vague impression that the script for the character Third Young Master stated that Pa Island was the Bai family's richest asset. In the early 2000s, a gold mine was discovered on the island, which was extremely valuable.
...Such an important asset was not read to him by Lawyer Chen when the inheritance was divided.
[Fuck! Sure enough, there is something wrong with Paradis Island! I felt something was wrong when the inheritance was divided!]
A barrage of comments floated across the small TV:
[The White God had no patience to listen to the will at that time, and went to deliver shoes to the bride eagerly, but he didn't succeed! When he came over, he saw the magician holding the bride's feet and kneeling on one knee to help her put on the shoes. He was not needed at all]
[Then he turned around and threw away the 800 gold coin shoes! ! Really? A prodigal child]
Bai Ye's small TV was floating behind him, and he didn't have time to watch it now.
Planner Peng asked, "So, who has this Paradis Island been allocated to now? The Third Young Master?"
Bai Ye: "It's not with me."
He stared at the disabled guy in the wheelchair with a scrutinizing look.
Young Master Bai did not hide anything and said generously, "Pa Island is in my hands."
There was a smile on his face, and he looked quite confident of winning.
Bai Ye was extremely unhappy.
"In yours? How... is this possible?" Miss Peng asked in surprise, "The Third Young Master is the legitimate heir of the Bai Family."
The players present were quite surprised, and the comments were crazy: [There is a conspiracy!], [This guy must be a scheming person!], [Fighting with scheming people? God is not good enough...]
Feeling the gaze of his third brother, the eldest son of the Bai family laughed even more freely. Although he was clearly sitting in a wheelchair, he seemed full of energy and vigor. He made plans and won battles from afar, and in no time he got hold of the Bai family's most valuable Pa Island.
As the legitimate heir, Bai Ye felt a strong sense of provocation. He suddenly thought that the role of the eldest young master was indeed unusual and he could often endure what ordinary people could not endure.
Before, Su Yi was teased by the magician by being pushed against a bookcase. Young Master Bai clearly saw it, but he did not react on the spot.
His wife was pressed against the bookcase by his second brother, and they hugged each other as if no one was around. How could he tolerate this?!
Staring at the smile of the young master in front of him, Bai Ye suddenly thought of his previous assumption:
At bedtime tonight, the bride and groom will enter the bridal chamber and must sleep together.
This disabled idiot is so tolerant, maybe it's because...
When the wedding night comes, all can be taken back from Su Yi!
When thinking of this possibility, Bai Ye could no longer bear it. He wanted to directly draw his knife and ask Bai Da Shao what his intentions were. He couldn't let such a disabled old man with unknown background get close to Su...
Suddenly, Bai Ye felt his sleeve was hooked.
There were soft fingertips that gently touched his hand like little tentacles.
Su Yi stood in his shadow, like a little lamb hiding in his protective circle, pulling his sleeves and whispering to him:
"Just now...thank you."
——Help him out and let everyone be quiet.
Bai Ye's irritable heart was immediately calmed down by Su Yi's words.
No matter how precious Para Island is, it is nothing more than a virtual script and a murder plot. Even if Mr. Bai robs a thousand or ten thousand of them, he cannot take away his understanding of Su Yi.
As for the wedding night, it was just a formality for the bride and groom to lie together. As long as Su Yi didn't want to, it would be a cold marriage of convenience. Without really getting along in real life, it would be impossible to have a real and warm relationship like him.
Bai Ye couldn't help but feel a little proud again. He grabbed Su Yi's slender fingers and held them in his palm:
"Then how do you thank me?"
