Quick Wear: The host is good at flirting, and the cold beauty's soul floats

There was an obvious element of suspicion in Zhu Changqing's question. Qiao Yudai and Zhu Changbai both heard something was wrong. Their attention was not on the food in front of them, but they slowed down their eating to listen to the conversation between Zhu Changqing and Zhu Jinnian.

It was indeed a coincidence that Zhu Jinnian appeared in Qingcheng. He happened to meet Qiao Yudai, and he happened to be their son. It all seemed to be arranged.

Zhu Changbai and Qiao Yudai even thought at the same time that this might be someone specially arranged by their business competitor.

But that’s not right. Zhu Jinnian has a token, and his blood has merged with theirs.

No matter how much the couple thought about it, they wanted to hear Zhu Jinnian's answer.

Zhu Jinnian, sensing Zhu Changqing's suspicion, remained calm. "I just wandered around after coming down the mountain. My main purpose was to broaden my horizons, so I didn't have a specific goal. I just happened to end up in Qingcheng this time."

Zhu Jinnian's answer was flawless. Zhu Changqing knew that he would get nothing out of it if he continued asking, so he simply stopped asking and concentrated on eating.

Qiao Yudai felt guilty for having just suspected Zhu Jinnian.

Maybe Zhu Jinnian's coming here was just a coincidence.

She quickly picked up some food for Zhu Jinnian and told him to eat more, as if this could alleviate her guilt.

Although Zhu Jinnian was not very enthusiastic about his newly recognized parents, he still felt a little uncomfortable about the suspicions raised by Qiao Yudai and Zhu Changbai.

He thought again and realized that he himself had suspected that his meeting with Qiao Yudai was too coincidental, so it was normal for Zhu Changbai and the others to suspect him.

After thinking about it this way, he understood and there was nothing to worry about.

The night was heavy, without even a trace of starlight, and it was pitch black, looking like a sign of rain.

Candles were lit in Bai Ye's room. He was leaning on the bed reading a book. At the table not far from him, Zhu Jinnian was standing with a pen in his right hand, drawing something on the paper.

The two of them didn't speak, each doing their own thing, and the room seemed extremely warm for a moment.

Suddenly a breeze blew over the candle, causing it to sway slightly before returning to its original shape.

Bai Ye raised his eyes, and Zhu Jinnian also stopped writing, looking at Bai Li who suddenly appeared in the room.

Bai Li didn't expect that Zhu Jinnian was also in Bai Ye's room. He thought that Bai Ye had asked everyone else to leave when he asked him to come at this time, but the first person he saw when he came in was Zhu Jinnian.

If Zhu Jinnian saw him coming in so suddenly, would he attack him? He had not forgotten that Zhu Jinnian was a Taoist priest and a demon hunter.

Although he is not a monster, I am still a little scared.

Bai Ye saw Bai Li's nervous expression. He put down the book and sat up straight.

"Don't worry, Jinnian won't attack you. Sit down."

Bai Ye meant that Zhu Jinnian could listen to everything they said.

Bai Li heard it. He first saluted Bai Ye, then looked at the stool and Zhu Jinnian who was standing next to the stool.

"Elder, I'll just stand."

Zhu Jinnian looked at Bai Li, then at Bai Ye, as if realizing something. He quickly put away the things on the table, took a few steps back and sat down next to Bai Ye.

He sat upright, looking unusually well-behaved, if you ignored the demon-slaying sword in his hand.

Zhu Jinnian's action stunned Bai Li, while Bai Ye smiled.

"sit down."

Bai Ye spoke again, and Zhu Jinnian had already sat next to Bai Ye. Bai Li had no reason to refuse, so he sat on the stool, facing Bai Ye and Zhu Jinnian.

After Bai Li sat down, Bai Ye spoke first: "You should know why I called you here. You don't have much time. Speak now, don't waste time."

Upon hearing this, Bai Li did not dare to delay any longer and wanted to tell the truth immediately.

"I..." Bai Li got stuck at the beginning of his words. There was too much to say, and his mind was in a mess. He could only ask Bai Ye for help: "Where should I start? What do you need to know, Elder?"

Bai Ye: "Where is the glass bead? Has it been used yet? Do you know the wolf demon's weakness?"

When Bai Ye asked questions, Bai Li found it much easier to answer them.

"The glass bead was taken away by the wolf demon when I brought it out of Qingqiu. The wolf demon needs the heart blood of a person with a pure soul to open the glass bead, and the person he has his eyes on is Jin Hong."

Seeing that Bai Ye and Zhu Jinnian looked calm, Bai Li continued, "He's been looking for an opportunity to get close to Jinhong. Three months ago, he finally found an opportunity. He asked Changqing to call Jinhong out, but Jinhong had a protective amulet on him at the time, so he failed. Later, the wolf demon asked Changqing to find a chance to take Jinhong's amulet away."

"Jinhong has always had a servant following him. He's not stupid, and he wouldn't give out the amulet easily. Changqing asked him several times, but he just wouldn't give it to him."

Bai Li looked somewhat helpless when she talked about this: "Jinhong said that the amulet was given to him by a master. The master specifically instructed that no matter who asked, he should not show it to them. My eldest brother and his wife also instructed me to do so. So Changqing found several excuses, but Jinhong refused to give it to him."

Bai Ye wanted to laugh. Who could have known that Zhu Jinhong would not play by the rules?

According to a rather melodramatic plot, Zhu Changqing asked Zhu Jinhong for the amulet to show him. Considering that Zhu Changqing was his uncle, Zhu Jinhong should show it to him. Then Zhu Changqing found a reason to take the amulet away and brought Zhu Jinhong to the wolf demon.

Who would have thought that this kid was so alert and could withstand the male protagonist's halo.

Of course, this is also because Zhu Changqing and Bai Li did something that caused the protagonist's halo to disappear, so Zhu Jinhong was able to resist the urge to give the amulet to Zhu Changqing.

Bai Ye suppressed his smile and glanced at Zhu Jinnian next to him. Zhu Jinnian had a calm expression and showed no reaction.

Bai Ye continued to ask: "What else?"

Bai Li thought for a moment and said, "Also, Jinhong is very vigilant, and the wolf demon hasn't given up. Tell Changqing to find a chance to get the amulet as soon as possible and call Jinhong out. He gave us a deadline of one month two days ago."

"One month?" Bai Ye asked, "You weren't in a rush before, why are you suddenly so anxious? Do you need to get Zhu Jinhong's heart blood in just one month? Is the wolf demon injured again?"

Bai Ye had already known that the wolf demon was injured, and he asked this question just to use Bai Li to tell Zhu Jinnian about it.

Bai Li thought Bai Ye didn't know why the wolf demon was injured, so he explained, "The glass bead is a magic weapon of our fox clan. When the wolf demon first got it, he wanted to use it, and ended up getting injured."

Bai Ye: "This is probably the reason why the wolf demon sharks people."

Bai Li nodded.

"So, did you and Zhu Changqing cooperate with the wolf demon shark man?"

Bai Li panicked at Bai Ye's sudden question, and immediately stood up and knelt in front of Bai Ye.

"Elder, I know I was wrong."

There was no need to say or ask more, Bai Li's words had already proved that he and Zhu Changqing had indeed done such a thing.

Zhu Jinnian spoke at this time: "Did you cooperate with the wolf demon to capture humans?"
