Actor, is it a joke?

The Bai family was able to marry the well-known Rong family back then. Although the financial power and influence were not as deep as the Rong family, the political influence accumulated by the family for several generations was unrivaled, and it was also called a good match.The marriage between Bai Qingrang, Bai Ge's father, and Rong Yutang, the only daughter of the Rong family, was once a well-known story in the upper circles.

It's just that this good story didn't have a happy ending, and everything was forcibly terminated after Bai Qing let his prime of life fall and died unexpectedly.The Bai family not only lost their only son, but also failed to win the custody of their grandson. The two elders were sick and disheartened, and passed away within a few years.The family has a great business but a small population. The Bai family, which is strong on the outside and capable on the outside, has fallen into ruins.

Before Bai Lao died, he transferred all the properties under his name, including a century-old manor on the top of Yuhua Mountain, to Bai Ge's name.

At that time, Baige was only 16 years old and already worth over [-] million yuan.

The above information was collected by Su Kunwu for Baige. Xu Chengdu's first reaction after reading it was that he never knew that Baige was so rich.

The car stopped at the entrance of the manor, and the solemn and solemn European-style black iron gate was closed tightly, and the lush summer scene inside could be glimpsed through the gap in the fence.

A thin, black and bright security guard rushed straight out of the sentry box by the door. Xu Chengdu pressed the window, and the security guard immediately saw Bai Ge sitting in the co-pilot, and quickly lowered his head and narrowed his eyes.

"Master, you have changed cars again."

Bai Ge hummed, turned his head and asked kindly: "Is Mrs. Rong already here?"

It may be that Bai Ge has always been friendly and has no airs. The little security guard raised his head, with a warm smile on his dark face, "Yes, Ma'am came early today, and I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Baige squinted his peachy eyes and said noncommittally, "Is my mother here alone, or..."

"Mr. Lu is also with me." The little security guard answered knowingly.

Bai Ge and Xu Chengdu raised their eyebrows at the same time.

"Okay, open the door quickly, don't keep the two of you waiting." Baige raised his hand, the little security guard opened the door, and the sports car drove in slowly and at a constant speed.

The stepdad came to attend the anniversary of his father's death... I don't know what Baige was thinking... Xu Chengdu tapped his fingers on the steering wheel and looked at the expressions of the people around him from the corner of his eye.

Baige's face was normal, he looked down at the bouquet of flowers in his arms, and there was even a generous and decent faint smile on his lips.

From the moment he entered the manor, the aura around this person changed instantly. The expression between his eyebrows and eyes, including his behavior, even the ends of his hair became warm and friendly. It was quite different from the previous image, as if he was a man with a vicious tongue who liked to tease people. Baige is another person entirely.

The alarm bell in Xu Chengdu's head rang immediately.He has known from before that Baige has two completely opposite faces, one in front and the other in back, acting and lying are true and false.But after getting along for a long time, there are rules to follow. For example, the more you face someone you don't like, the more kind and polite Baige will be, without revealing anything.

It can be seen from this that Baige holds great hostility towards Rong Yutang or Lu Wang.

After getting out of the car, Baige hugged the bouquet, walked around the courtyard villa, and walked towards the back mountain.

With Xu Chengdu in his pocket, he silently followed behind him.

The Bai family's manor is named after the mountain, called Yuhua Manor, and it is their family's burial garden.Bai Qingrang's grandfather bought land to prepare for the construction, and then moved the tombs in a large scale, moving all the tombs of the Bai family that were listed on the list to this mountain. I thought it could continue from generation to generation, but I didn't expect it to stop abruptly for just three generations.

Baige's grandfather and father are buried here.

There are many tombstones in the green mountains and fields.

At the end of a cobbled road, Baige stopped, bent his left hand on his waist and bowed deeply, and gently placed the bunch of yellow and white chrysanthemums in front of the monument with his right hand.

There were a few other bunches of similar white flowers and sacrificial melons and fruits, which should be Baige's mother or Bai Qingrang's old friend.

Xu Chengdu once saw a photo of Bai Qingrang in the data. He looked clear and watery, and there was nothing amazing about it. He tried to find the shadow of Bai Ge in that photo. The only similarity was probably the lip color Very weak.

Baige just stood there silently, his posture couldn't be said to be correct, he just stood like this.

Xu Chengdu felt a little depressed from this ordinary back.It may be because of the presence of outsiders, and Baige was embarrassed to talk about the family life with his father, so he moved his feet and wanted to step back a certain distance, leaving him some sufficient space.

However, as soon as the back heel rubbed against the ground, there was a slight sound, and Bai Ge said, "Where are you going?"

"If I don't go anywhere, I will stay a little farther away."

"No, I don't have anything to say." Baige guessed his intention, and the corners of his tight lips eased. "I talked too much when I was a child, and he probably got bored."

Xu Chengdu's shortcoming has always been in comforting people. He opened his mouth, his fists tightened, loosened and tightened, but he couldn't say a word.

In this way, he looked at Baige's back, and Baige looked at the tombstone, and the two were silent for nearly an hour.

On the way back, Baige asked, "A'Du, do you miss your parents?"

"I've never seen them." Xu Chengdu walked side by side with him, kicking the stones beside his feet, "I can't say whether I miss them or not."

An apology flashed across Bai Ge's face, "Sorry, I didn't know they died so early."

"It's nothing, I think it's good like this. I've never had it before. It's better to be lucky than to lose it again." Xu Chengdu said, feeling that something was not enough, so he put his hand behind Baige and patted him on the waist casually.

He originally wanted to pat Baige on the shoulder, but he was taller than him and his posture was a bit awkward, so he had to settle for the next best thing and go down to pat his waist instead.

Baige was taken aback by the slap, his back straightened, and then he realized his kindness and relaxed again.

The lumbosacrum that had been gently patted felt warm and spread to the surroundings. Baige squinted his eyes contentedly, and asked, "You look constipated, do you have any questions?"

Enduring being seen all the way, Xu Chengdu rubbed his hands, thinking about how to ask so that it doesn't sound like repeating old things with ulterior motives.

"Although it's inappropriate to mention this now, I'm still a little curious..." After speaking halfway, it didn't feel right, Xu Chengdu swallowed the words again, and continued to ponder.

"About that car accident?" Baige didn't hesitate at all.

Since the other party got straight to the point, Xu Chengdu nodded accordingly.

"The caliber of all the reports back then was surprisingly consistent. You can find out just by asking around." The corner of his mouth curled up in a suspected sarcasm, and Baige's face sank, and he said in a completely official and indifferent tone, " The victim was driving drunk, knocked into an oncoming large truck in a state of unconsciousness, subconsciously evaded and turned the steering wheel sharply, accidentally broke through the railing of the bridge, and fell into the river with the car and others. The death diagnosis was severe brain injury and drowning .”

"Where's the truck driver?" Xu Chengdu asked.

"He died of excessive blood loss. It was a truck full of steel bars. When the accident happened, the car body was severely impacted. A steel bar pierced through the car and accurately penetrated the driver's lung lobe."

"What a coincidence, the parties are gone, and there is no evidence to prove it." Xu Chengdu loosened his clenched back molars.

"No, there is a survivor." Baige picked a leaf at random and twirled it with his fingertips, "A 12-year-old boy survived the disaster. The Rong family exerted pressure on all media to protect the child , blocked all news."

Xu Chengdu's pupils opened slightly, and he looked at Baige in surprise.

"Yes, it's me."

"So, you are an eyewitness to the whole incident." Xu Chengdu was short of breath, and he heard his own voice ask, "In your memory, does the report match the facts?"

Baige glanced at him faintly, the leaf in his hand was folded in half, and fell to the ground lightly, "Wait for the day when you take the initiative to confess your true identity to me, and I will tell you."

Xu Chengdu grabbed him with sharp eyes, "Are you suspicious of something?"

The agent's excellent intuition told him that some words in Baige's narration were obviously tinged with strong personal emotions.There must be something strange, and the accident may be a long-planned story.

"Doubt?" Baige pulled his hand down, pinched it in the palm of his hand, and then let it go, "I never doubt it. I'm sure."

While speaking, the magnificent and magnificent villa was in front of him. In the large courtyard, two figures were sitting at the stone table drinking tea and chatting comfortably, whispering and laughing indistinctly.

Xu Chengdu still hadn't forgotten his duty, so he took two steps back naturally, lowered his head, and respectfully followed behind Baige.

Stuck by the sight of the couple singing in harmony, Baige's pupils shrank suddenly, and a bone-chilling coolness shot up from the soles of his feet, swimming through his whole body, freezing the meridians and the blood flowing inside.

Well, that's great, everyone is dead, but you still have to come to his place to humiliate him.

"Here?" The lady first spotted her son standing not far away, stood up enthusiastically, and opened her arms like a lark, flying to hold his son's arm, "Mom has been waiting for you for a long time."

Baige jerked his arm out.

The lady froze for a moment, a little disappointed, but then became happy again.

Because Baige put his arms around her shoulders and said softly, "What are you waiting for? You are not in good health and the weather is so hot. You should go back and lie down early to rest."

Xu Chengdu's footsteps stopped at the gate of the courtyard, and he knew how to stop stepping in. He folded his hands in front of him, puffed up his chest, stood upright, expressionless, and assumed the posture of a bodyguard.

At the same time, he quietly observed a man and a woman in the yard in the dark.

Rong Yutang was wearing a cheongsam with black and white curls and a high bun. She didn't have too many tacky jewellery, but she only wore a green and transparent jade bracelet on her wrist. It exudes the atmosphere of a high-end lady.Over fifty years old, he still has a charming charm, black hair and fair skin, slim waist, gentle eyebrows and eyes like Baige, except for being slightly pale, he does not appear old at all.

Bai Ge's perfect genes are basically inherited from his mother.Thinking of Bai Qingrang's appearance, Xu Chengdu made a conclusion.

"It's not because my son is too busy, so he never comes to see me." The lady's voice was soft but clear, with obvious reproach, "I, as a mother, can't survive you, so in order to see my son, I have to wait as long as I can." wait."

Bai Ge showed self-blame, and opened his eyes to talk nonsense, "I'm rushing to make an announcement recently, the schedule is too full..."

"Let me tell you, celebrities are like this. They often fall into the limelight after being busy. It's better to come back and inherit the family business." Lu Wang, who had been sitting at the stone table calmly drinking tea, squinted over and glanced at the intimacy. mother and son.

This is Lu Wang?Xu Chengdu squinted his eyes against the light and looked over.

He was wearing a gray plaid shirt, trousers of a slightly darker color, with straight and straight seams, and polished leather shoes on his feet.He is younger than Rong Yutang, but his hair is already half gray, he wears a pair of square amber glasses, and he has a small mustache on his chin.On the right hand side, a shiny black cane was quietly leaning against the table.

The image of a normal middle-aged man, if it weren't for the small eyes shining brightly behind the lenses and the unusual cane, Xu Chengdu would almost have thought that this was the philanthropic entrepreneur admired by the outside world.

"Hey, don't force him." Rong Yutang pulled Baige to sit down, "Don't you know this kid's temper? It looks easy to talk, but once he has an idea, eight horses can't pull him back."

"Hmph, since the eight horses won't come back, I'll use [-] horses. Anyway, I have plenty of money to buy horses." Lu Wang patted the table with a look of resentment. Alright, when you come back, you must act according to your heart!"

Baige picked up the purple sand pot in his hand to refill his tea, and tried to persuade him with a smile: "Dad, there is a specialization in art, if Rongwang really gets into my hands, it will definitely go bankrupt within two years, are you really relieved? "

"The leadership team I left for you are all vegetarians? Don't worry, you won't fail within two years." Lu Wang picked up his teacup and laughed proudly.

The range of laughter was a little big, the teacup in his hand was unsteady, and some tea splashed out.

"Don't, it's really messed up, I can't afford it." Baige picked up the wet towel on the table and silently wiped off the spilled tea stains, his movements were extremely natural and skillful, "You still work so hard!" Some, glory depends on you."

"You kid..."

It was like a scene of happy and harmonious sharing with the family, but Xu Chengdu was terrified and terrified when he saw it, and he was covered in white sweat unknowingly.

This is really far from what he expected, not to mention Baige's attitude towards Lu Wang, even Lu Wang's attitude towards Baige is too harmonious, so harmonious that Xu Chengdu wants to scold her.

An enemy's enemy is a comrade-in-arms. He had speculated just now that Baige suspected that Lu Wang had tampered with his biological father's car accident. He also took it for granted that starting from this hatred, he tried to form an ally with him, and even planned to make an alliance with him. He developed into an insider comrade.Based on this, in the face of Baige's request, he almost revealed his identity and purpose.

But now... the wind direction seems to have changed.
