The last time Chi Li was assassinated, Bai Zhenxi temporarily forgot something very important. Now he finally remembered it and was waiting for Chi Li's questioning.

Bai Zhenxi decided to give her a hint: "Last time, we caught a reporter who wrote a report that was not accurate."

"Reporter." Chi Li immediately thought of Wang Rui.

"Have you met that reporter? He's quite interesting, right?" Chi Li recalled the scene when Wang Rui's fake beard fell to the ground.

Bai Zhenxi's heart was filled with alarm. He hated himself for not killing the reporter who wrote nonsense at that time. Now he was suspected of being a love rival.

"He's just a rumormonger, not very interesting."

"Is it a rumor? At least there's no way to refute the fact that my singing is bad." Chi Li admitted helplessly.

Bai Zhenxi's bony right hand covered Chi Li's left hand, which was resting on the armrest of the chair. His cold features softened and tendered. "That's a rumor. I love your singing the most."

Chi Li didn't believe it at all and was about to say, "Don't try to trick me," but suddenly she remembered that Bai Zhenxi seemed to have listened to everything she sang at the Paramount, unlike Jiang Yaozu and the others who ran away after listening to a few words or complained directly.

Could it be that this boy really had unique tastes? Chi Li was skeptical, but she didn't dwell on it. Instead, she said cheerfully, "Then we're truly a perfect match. From now on, I'll sing every song only for you." She wouldn't bother anyone else, as that would be embarrassing.

Bai Zhenxi was so delighted by her words that a faint smile appeared on his usually cold face: "Okay, I want to be your only audience."

"Oh, what are you doing at the Paramount today? And you want me to follow you? Is there a surprise?" Chi Li asked in a low voice with a sly smile on her face.

Bai Zhenxi had already forgotten that he was waiting for her to question him. His expression was a little complicated, and he said hesitantly, "Maybe it's a surprise?"

"Probably? So mysterious? I'm starting to look forward to it." Chi Li smiled brightly and winked at him with her left eye ambiguously.

Bai Zhenxi's heart started beating rapidly as if it was hit by something.

His heart didn't beat for too long. Jiang Yaozu, who had a romantic temperament, walked in without caring about his relatives and sat down next to Bai Zhenxi under the attention of everyone.

Chi Li tilted her head and looked at him: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Mr. Jiang. Why do you look so much better?"

"Please explain clearly what that thing is." Jiang Yaozu was getting angry.

Chi Li looked at the dark circles under Jiang Yaozu's eyes and just smiled without answering.

Jiang Yaozu felt that her smile was ironic. He jumped up from his chair and said, "I tell you, I'm not weak at all. I can do it."

"Yes, yes, you are good, you are really good, you are really, really, really good." Chi Li nodded repeatedly, and the teasing in her eyes could not be hidden.

Jiang Yaozu became even more anxious. He hadn't seen Chi Li for a long time, but she was still so good at making trouble. Although he looked furious, he was relaxed in his heart.

Bai Zhenxi's face was cold and his heart was cold too, so cold that he wanted to shoot Jiang Yaozu to death. He seemed unable to enter the world where the two of them were bickering with each other but were happy. He could only feel anxious and started to wonder if the next plan was really appropriate?

"I heard that the Jiang family's heirloom is a priceless jade. Master Jiang, is this true?" Bai Zhenxi asked after both of them calmed down.

Chi Li became interested: "A family heirloom? It must be very powerful."

Jiang Yaozu straightened his moon-white gown and proudly raised his head and said, "Of course. Our Jiang family's heirloom can make people feel refreshed just by looking at it."

"Your family heirloom is RMB." Chi Li thought this was too exaggerated.

"What RMB? Anyway, it's a treasure that a country bumpkin like you will never see in your lifetime." Chi Li is talking nonsense again, and it must be something bad, Jiang Yaozu thought.

"Cough..." A light cough interrupted the two people's bickering in time.

Jiang Yaozu continued to boast, "My house isn't just filled with amazing heirlooms. You should know that the most luxurious and beautiful building in Yuncheng is the Jiang Residence. You've never seen my garden before. It's filled with all kinds of flowers and fruit trees, like peaches, apricots, and watermelon seeds."

"Watermelons grow on trees? Watermelon seeds can't grow on trees either?" Chi Li didn't expect the male protagonist to be so good at bragging.

Jiang Yaozu didn't expect that this singer whose singing was hoarse and unbearable to listen to was so common sense.

Bai Zhenxi asked, "Do you want to go to the Jiang Mansion for a few days? I see you haven't been out lately and staying in the mansion all the time is not good for your foot injury."

Chi Li smiled and shook her injured foot: "If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten I was injured. It has healed a long time ago, okay?"

Bai Zhenxi said seriously: "No, your foot is not healed."

"Ah?" Chi Li felt that she no longer understood Bai Zhenxi.

"Go play for a few days!" Bai Zhenxi patted the back of Chi Li's hand.

If Chi Li can no longer see that this is an attempt to get her out of the way, then she is a complete fool.

"You're not going to cheat on me, are you?" Chi Li thought of Jiang Yue in the Bai Mansion. She was really worried, not only because Jiang Yue had improper thoughts about Bai Zhenxi, but more importantly, Chi Li still suspected that she was a risk of poisoning.

"Don't talk nonsense, just you is all I need." Bai Zhenxi said honestly.

Chi Li blushed, and shyly turned her head away, saying, "I won't be at ease unless you come with me."

Bai Zhenxi refused: "I have something important to do. I will pick you up when I am done. I will accompany you wherever you want to go."

"Can you accompany me if I go to heaven?" Chi Li asked.

Bai Zhenxi said very seriously: "Well, I will accompany you. Let's dream about going to heaven together."

Chi Li clenched her left fist and lightly hit Bai Zhenxi's chest. She smiled and said, "Good job, you can make a joke now."

Jiang Yaozu stood up from his seat again. He said in disbelief, "Can you please respect me for a moment? I didn't even agree to come to my house, and you're already discussing whether to go or not."

Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him.

Chi Li thought for a while and said, "I am indeed a little interested in the Jiang Mansion, but I have conditions."

Jiang Yaozu put his hands on his hips and said, "I think you are a little interested."

Bai Zhenxi looked at her encouragingly and motioned for her to continue.

"One of Jiang Yue or Adjutant Li must accompany me." Based on Chi Li's observation and her sometimes accurate and sometimes inaccurate sixth sense, one of these two people must be the one who poisoned her.

Adjutant Li is a very strange person. Chi Li suspects that Adjutant Li is definitely involved in her last assassination attempt, but she has no conclusive evidence to prove that Adjutant Li is a bad person.

"These two can't do it. Can I let Xiaoba accompany you?"

"This is not possible, that is not possible, and neither is that. I don't agree." Chi Li turned her face away and didn't look at Bai Zhenxi.

"Trust me, it will be quick. It won't take long. Once this is done, you can do whatever you want with these two people."
