Chapter 97 Return
◎The first◎
Shi Hanqiao raised her eyebrows slightly, pursed her lips, and waited for the young man's next explanation.
His dark eyes were as deep as the abyss, but his gaze was like a sharp arrow, able to penetrate people's hearts and see through everything.
Luo Wusheng licked his lips, still unable to look directly into Girl A's overly dark eyes.
He avoided her gaze slightly, took a deep breath, and said quickly, "We have established a spiritual connection. We need a relationship to explain our closeness outside."
"Even though you don't care much, I want you to help me."
Realizing his words might be misinterpreted, he explained, "I want to have a legitimate, legal relationship with you outside, whether it's holding hands or hugging, without being criticized by others."
"Do you care?"
Although she asked back, she didn't believe that he cared about other people's opinions.
"Not really."
The young man took a deep breath and said, "If you want to conceal your partnership with Shi Qi, or if it's for some other purpose, you can just wait for Shi Qi to discuss it with you."
Luo Wusheng paused for a moment, his phoenix eyes piercing through the dark pupils, staring at the real her hidden in the darkness as if touching her soul.
"I asked you to marry me because I wanted to marry you."
He lowered his head and rested his forehead against hers.
He really never cared who he married. It was just a casual affair, a trade-off of interests.
But now, his future partner will only be the soul carried by this body in front of him.
"When humans get married, they all have feelings for each other."
"Isn't there anything between us?" the young man asked.
His dark eyes drooped slightly, inadvertently glancing at the young man's tense arms and the protruding blue veins on the back of his clenched fist.
Shi Hanqiao sighed silently in her heart. She really thought that he had discovered something and was testing her.
But, it has been tolerated for so long anyway.
It doesn't matter this time.
"certainly--"
Female A spoke slowly with a slight smile on her lips.
Luo Wusheng pursed his lips and stared at her without blinking.
"--have."
The suspended heart landed safely.
"So what do you mean?"
"I've already answered that."
"Can."
Marriage is the act of humans establishing a spousal relationship in accordance with the conditions and procedures prescribed by law.
Regardless of whether the young person speaks with a purpose or without a purpose.
Shi Hanqiao didn't care.
However, the latter sounds better.
Woman A accepted it calmly, but Luo Wusheng was stunned for a long time.
He noticed it keenly.
There seems to be some difference between the two consents given by woman A.
In the latter, her tone rose, and she was obviously happier.
Before agreeing for the first time, Woman A mentioned his collaboration with Shi Qi.
Tan An is committed to winning over the Ninth Army and facilitating his marriage with Shi Hanqiao.
Shi Qi knew that his daughter's body had been replaced by someone else, so he naturally did not mention the marriage with Girl A.
But she definitely knew their plan. There were too many clues and she didn't need to analyze it deliberately.
Previously, Luo Wusheng deliberately avoided discussing this topic with Woman A for fear of upsetting her.
But now, he dared to mention anything except Luo Wei's death.
Of course, all this also stems from the unconditional indulgence of Woman A.
The phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.
A flash of inspiration came to me.
He stared at the person in front of him.
There was surprise and disbelief in his eyes.
"how?"
Shi Hanqiao's eyes flickered slightly. It seemed he had only just noticed it.
However, he had already asked, and she agreed.
Once words are spoken, they cannot be taken back.
It is impossible to recover what has been done.
The young man shook his head slowly.
After hesitating for a while, he asked, "Why did you agree?"
Shi Hanqiao asked doubtfully, "Do you need a reason?"
The Demon Lord always does things based on his own preferences, he doesn't need any reasons.
The phoenix eyes stared at her and nodded heavily: "Need it!"
Woman A thought about it seriously for a moment, but couldn't find a reason.
He just said, "I told you, if you ask me, I will help you."
She had made a promise, and the young man happened to be someone she was willing to keep her promise to.
Still today.
The phoenix eyes looked at her steadily, and Shi Hanqiao's figure occupied her vision for a long time.
Luo Wusheng felt that he might be going crazy.
Even though he knew that woman A was the real hunter who used indulgence as a pretext, he still willingly stepped into the trap.
Time passed quickly on the starship, especially after the two of them had improved their rapport.
They arrived at the capital planet one night.
"The end of the voyage, my home?" Shi Hanqiao looked at the screen.
"You know, I looked up the information."
Luo Wusheng did not hide it. His watch suddenly flashed. He clicked it and looked at it with a serious expression.
"Now, we have to go to the Bai family instead."
"how?"
Shi Hanqiao was curious, as young people rarely had such a solemn expression.
"The old man of the Bai family is dead."
Actually, the old man of the Bai family is the grandfather of Shi Hanqiao's current body.
Woman A said, "Tell me about it."
Although the sentence was without beginning or end, the young man understood what she meant.
"The old man of the Bai family is an Alpha. He has a strong sense of family honor. It can be said that the Bai family has the strictest family tradition among the four major families."
Woman A raised an eyebrow: "Not really."
She only has the memory of her original body, and the original owner was raised by a machine housekeeper since childhood. She neither enjoyed the warmth of her biological parents nor received preferential treatment from the Bai family.
Therefore, the Demon Lord cannot obtain a lot of information from his memory.
Of course, it is not difficult for Shi Hanqiao to know now.
However, with the young man around, she didn't need to spend time and energy investigating.
She looked at him with obvious confusion in her eyes.
Luo Wusheng naturally understood what she meant by "not quite like".
He continued slowly, "Mr. Bai is a typical Alpha. He trained his eldest Alpha daughter, Bai Shuiyue, as his successor. As for his second Omega son, Bai Shuiyang, the father of this body of yours, Mr. Bai trained him as a tool for marriage."
"But children aren't appendages of their parents. Both of them only appear obedient, but they actually have their own ideas. When Bai Shuiyang and Shi Qi were together, although the latter had made a name for himself in the military, he had no family influence and was born into an unknown family. Furthermore, Mr. Bai was interested in my uncle, who was definitely going to become the head of the Luo family. So he used every possible means to force Bai Shuiyang to break off contact with Shi Qi."
Girl A raised her eyebrows. Now Bai Shuiyang and Shi Qi are together, and they also gave birth to the original owner.
"It's obvious that either Bai Shuiyang took the initiative to leave the Bai family, or Old Master Bai expelled him from the Bai family."
Luo Wusheng nodded: "You are right about everything."
"According to the information I've received, it was Bai Shuiyang who took the initiative to leave the Bai family in order to be with Shi Qi. However, Old Master Bai was too proud to admit that he was the one who expelled the unfilial Omega from the Bai family and removed his name from the family tree."
"Bai Shuiyue and Bai Shuiyang have a good relationship. The former respects her brother's choice. Plus, Alphas are naturally strong and respect the strong. A few years after the latter followed Shi Qi to the border, changes occurred in the Bai family."
"Bai Shuiyue quelled the rebellion with lightning speed and replaced his father as the new head of the family."
Woman A: "You see it but don't say it?"
The young man nodded: "On the surface, it was Bai Shuiyue who turned the tide, at least that's how others see it."
"But based on some of the information I found later, I can only speculate that Bai Shuiyue might have instigated this turmoil in order to seize the position of Patriarch of the Bai Family."
He said, "You really can't talk nonsense about things without evidence."
The Capital Star is a pool of water that is as deep as the sun and the moon and has an unfathomable depth.
Countless blood and filth are buried under the water. Some have been washed away by the flow of time, even the bones have been worn away. Some can be found to be useful if you dig a little.
"This also explains the personalities of Bai Muxue and Bai Muqi. Bai Shuiyue is now the head of the Bai family, but she hasn't applied Old Master Bai's methods to her own children."
The young man finally replied that what Woman A said was not true.
Shi Hanqiao said jokingly: "It's quite interesting."
Having arrived at the capital planet, the young man had already adjusted his destination and would arrive at the Bai family manor in ten minutes.
He suddenly reached out and held girl A's face.
"how?"
Her instinctively tense body gradually relaxed. She noticed the young man's actions, but still chose to let him do what he wanted.
"I received news that the leaders of various families have come to visit the Bai family."
"Although only the people who visit the Bai family know their emotions, they all try to hide their sadness."
The interested smile in girl A's eyes was too obvious.
After all, the person who died was her nominal grandfather.
It’s better to keep a low profile.
Luo Wusheng sighed helplessly, "You should restrain yourself a little."
"I'm not asking you to pretend to be sad, just keep your expressionless face like before."
"Then slow down a little bit."
The smile in his dark eyes did not diminish.
Now that we have discovered it, we have to change our approach.
"Um?"
Luo Wusheng was confused for a moment and didn't immediately understand what she meant.
Her phoenix eyes reflected her slowly pressing his wrist bone, then pulling his hand down, her dark eyes looking at him with a smile.
!!!
A sudden rush of heat rushed to my face.
Is it because I can’t see him that I can’t smile?!
In other words, she would smile only when she saw him.
Luo Wusheng withdrew his hand, put his fist to his lips and coughed twice to cover up his cough.
Just as the starship docked, he said nonchalantly, "We're here."
But he was walking behind woman A.
After getting off the starship, looking at her from the back, her profile was cold and resolute, without any of the relaxed smile she had when she was with him.
The young man took two deep breaths and left the environment where they were alone.
Naturally, he also had an indifferent expression and resumed his image as a high-class beauty.
The sound of a starship docking came from behind. The two men turned around at the same time and saw a starship docked next to their starship.
Shi Qi and Bai Shuiyang walked out.
"Aqiao!"
Bai Shuiyang, with a sullen look on his face, spotted Shi Hanqiao at a glance and quickly walked over with his Alpha.
After a few simple greetings, Shi Qi said, "Go in first."
There were many people coming and going, and many eyes and ears passing by pretending to be indifferent.
The four of them entered the inner hall, and the Bai brothers and sisters came over and greeted them one by one.
Bai Muxue said to Bai Shuiyang and Shi Hanqiao, "Uncle, cousin, my mother wants you to go alone."
"You two, please forgive the Bai family's affairs."
Bai Muqi spoke to Luo Wusheng and Shi Qi, but his eyes were directed at the latter.
Obviously, the head of the Bai family has not forgiven Female A for taking his brother to the remote border where he has been for more than 20 years.
Bai Shuiyang also knew his sister's temper. He said to Girl A, "I'll come out to find you later."
Shi Qi nodded, and followed Bai Muqi with Luo Wusheng.
Shi Hanqiao and Bai Shuiyang followed Bai Muxue upstairs.
Bai Shuiyang asked doubtfully, "Sister, is she waiting for us in Dad's study?"
Bai Muxue didn't answer and pushed the door open heavily.
"See for yourself."
There was a pattern drawn in blood on the ground - a circle enclosing five stars.
And Mr. Bai's body was lying on the pattern.
