My enemy's style is wrong

Chapter 52

Lin Xiuran never thought that so many things would be involved in the tragedy nearly ten years ago.

It was also because he had thought too simply before. He only thought that everything would be fine if he found out who the murderer was, but he never thought that many years ago, he would be able to plan such a big event quietly. There has long been ulterior motives.

Even the branch of the Lin family is not monolithic internally. When Lin Maozhi came to the throne, he was too young to convince the public. Although there is only one young Lin Maozhi among his brothers, he does not have to compete with his brothers for the seat, but there are uncles and elders who are covetous. At least, he also suppressed the turbulent undercurrent with some thunderous means back then.

But it can be suppressed for a while, but it cannot be suppressed for a lifetime.

The pain of losing his wife hit Lin Maozhi deeply, and made him very depressed for a while. At that time, many elders were ready to move. There are still hidden dangers.

If Lin Xiuran hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, Lin Maozhi probably wouldn't even think about investigating the Yin family's affairs, let alone find out that it has any connection with the Lin family. Although there is no direct evidence at the moment, Lin Maozhi has been keenly aware of it. There is an inner ghost in the Lin family.

It has always been difficult to guard against family thieves. The more investigations got deeper, Lin Maozhi also slowed down his actions for fear of threatening the snake. Only Lin Xiuran, the only son, could not be at ease. What's more, Lin Xiuran was alone. As for the danger that would be too great, I still don't want to be at ease by my side.

Lin Xiuran came back this time, apparently because of the fifteenth anniversary of his mother's death, but Lin Maozhi's real purpose was to hand over one of his private guards to Lin Xiuran, and the ring he took down was keepsake.

Originally, he planned to wait until Lin Xiuran formed a pill before slowly starting to cultivate heirs, but looking at the current situation, I am afraid that the situation is not optimistic. Fortunately, Lin Xiuran is talented and intelligent, as long as he has a little experience, he is not unable to take care of things.

It's just a deeper level of consideration, in order to avoid Lin Xiuran being overwhelmed, he didn't speak out.

After all, Lin Xiuran is not really a young man, and the sum of his two lives is at least over 40 years old. When he saw Lin Maozhi handing over the ring to him, he knew something was wrong. He, otherwise Lin Xiuran would just jump up.

When he returned to his own courtyard, Lin Xiuran was still a little out of his mind. Although the servants and maids in the courtyard had not been seen for a year, they had not been replaced by others, and the arrangement was the same as before leaving home.

Yin Chengyu held a lantern and was loosely dressed in indigo clothes, waiting in the yard for him to come back.

"Brother!" Lin Xiuran cheered up and rushed over, with a smile on his face, "Are you waiting for me?"

"If the master doesn't come back, how can I, a guest, rest?" Yin Chengyu deliberately teased.

According to Lin Xiuran's original personality, he should have joked back at this time, but when the words came to his lips, he felt melancholy in his heart.

Who would have thought that his "master's family" would have to be on guard against the schemes and assassinations of his siblings in his own home?

In addition, if Yin Chengyu's identity is exposed, he will be even more feared by others. Even though the Lin family is the place where he has lived for more than ten years, there are hidden threats everywhere at present. There will only be more means.

"Brother, I will protect you." Lin Xiuran said solemnly.

Yin Chengyu led Lin Xiuran into the room, raised his eyebrows and smiled gently, "I know."

In his previous life, it was Lin Xiuran who had been protecting him, but in this life, Yin Chengyu did not intend to put Lin Xiuran in danger again.

"When is the anniversary of my aunt's death?"

"There are still two days."

Yin Cheng nodded: "In this case, you should take a good rest these two days. There were too many things in the past few days. I'm afraid you didn't have much rest. It's rare to go home. You can put aside your homework for a while. .”

Lin Xiuran replied vaguely, waved away all the maids guarding in the courtyard, and dragged Yin Chengyu to the soup pool behind the house. After soaking in the hot spring for a while, he finally spoke.

"Brother, do you want to go home and have a look?"

He didn't say it explicitly, but Yin Chengyu knew that it was referring to the former land of the Yin family.

"If you don't go back, I went there once before entering Minghe Mountain. If I go again, it will definitely arouse people's suspicion, and it will only increase the right and wrong."

This is true, even though several years have passed, people may still pay attention to the old place of the Yin family. If you only go there once, it will not attract attention, but if you go there many times, Yin Chengyu's identity will definitely arouse suspicion.

Many people have met Yin Chengyu, especially after forming alchemy in Liaozhou's secret realm, Yin Chengyu has become the target of many young monks. Although Yin Chengyu's identity has not been clearly explained to the public, as long as he wants to find out, he can know , since it's in the clear, it's better to restrain yourself.

But as the Son of Man, Lin Xiuran can empathize with this kind of regret.

"If senior brother has no other arrangements tomorrow, why don't I take senior brother for a stroll in Xihe City?" Lin Xiuran cheered up and said with a smile, "I know there are many delicious and interesting places in the city, but they are still idle, so why don't you go around? Take a break?"

In fact, Yin Chengyu has long been used to this, and he doesn't need to relax, but seeing Lin Xiuran's pale face that doesn't match his words, he also nodded, and it's time to accompany Lin Xiuran to relieve stress and have fun.

Seeing Yin Chengyu nod his head, Lin Xiuran felt relieved. He consciously appeased his lonely boyfriend Xiaobaicai, and couldn't help but cheer up in his heart.He still doesn't know that Yin Chengyu has started to practice the Five Elements Jue again, he only thinks that Yin Chengyu's original golden fingers have lost most of them.

But the golden finger is gone, but the ups and downs of the protagonist's halo are still there. Lin Xiuran burst out with infinite pride and ambition: "Brother, don't worry, with me here, no one can hurt you!"

"Xiu Ran... I have already formed the alchemy, and you are the one who builds the foundation." Yin Chengyu reminded helplessly.

"..."

Lin Xiuran stared at Yin Chengyu in silence, the scene was very embarrassing for a moment, Yin Chengyu also realized that he had said something wrong, just about to explain, when Lin Xiuran stood up angrily, and poured a large handful of water on his face , Angrily put on his clothes and went back to the room, then slammed the door shut with a bang.

Yin Chengyu, whose face was drenched with water, wiped his face indiscriminately with his hands full of grievances, and quickly got up and chased after him. The door was closed, and Yin Chengyu knocked several times, but Lin Xiuran ignored it.

It looks like it needs to be coaxed.

Fortunately, Lin Xiuran's anger came and went quickly, and when the next morning, he happily took Yin Chengyu out to play together.

The streets in Xihe City are wide, and it is also the morning market. There are many pedestrians on the streets like weaving vendors. Lin Xiuran and Yin Chengyu mixed in the crowd and wandered aimlessly.There were many vendors selling breakfast on the street. Although the two of them had already eaten their breakfast, they were still aroused by the burst of aroma when they passed by.

"Two bowls of tofu nao!" Lin Xiuran proudly took out a few spirit stones, and sat down with Yin Chengyu.

Lin Xiuran was a regular customer of this store in the past. The boss knew him a long time ago. Although he hadn't seen him for more than a year, he didn't forget him. He smiled and greeted him. After pouring a thick layer of sugar, and wiping the rim of the bowl clean, he passed it over.

The tofu was tender and smooth, sprinkled with a thick layer of sugar, and the sweet aroma had escaped before entering the mouth. Lin Xiuran enthusiastically brought a bowl to Yin Chengyu: "Come and taste it!"

Yin Chengyu looked at the white tofu nao with a solemn expression, and took a sip with great difficulty. The sweet and greasy tofu nao really didn't suit his taste, but Lin Xiuran still looked at him with bright eyes, and it was hard to put on a look of interest. Look dull.

"How is it?" Lin Xiuran asked expectantly.

"Hmm..." Yin Chengyu grimaced, and replied vaguely, "It's, it's okay."

On the contrary, the boss laughed naively: "I'm afraid it doesn't suit this young master's taste?"

Yin Chengyu nodded with relief: "I have never eaten this kind of food before, so I thought it was a bit novel."

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiuran's heart rang alarm bells instantly. Looking at the meaning of Yin Chengyu's words... Could it be that he is a salty party?

"Brother... do you like tofu nao sweet... or salty?"

Inconsistent tastes are a big deal. Although monks don’t pay much attention to appetite, and eating too much mortal food will produce impurities, but after all, few monks can completely get rid of the temptation of delicious food, and there are many spirit beasts and birds with fresh and tender meat. Many monks will cook some spirit beasts to satisfy their greed.

But when it was worth the money, he had never seen him be so picky when he made roast chicken and rabbit for Yin Chengyu!

When Yin Chengyu saw Lin Xiuran's expression, he complained in his heart, and he didn't know why. In his previous life, Lin Xiuran had been particularly concerned about whether tofu nao was sweet or salty. He never thought that he would still be unable to escape such a small bowl of tofu nao in this life.

Saying that you like sweet ones is tantamount to masochistic, but if you say you like salty ones... Lin Xiuran is afraid that he will get angry again.

"It doesn't matter whether other people's food is sweet or salty, it's no different from me. Only Xiu Ran's food is delicious no matter what the taste is."

In desperation, Yin Chengyu learned a high-end love story without a teacher, and Lin Xiuran blushed when he said it, and couldn't help grinning.

"I only know how to grill and stew soup, not this." Lin Xiuran said with a smirk.

Yin Chengyu immediately nodded politely: "It's okay, I'll learn how to make it for you."

Even though it was in the bustling and noisy morning market, Yin Chengyu's gentle and caring appearance still made Lin Xiuran's heart flutter, but this ambiguous atmosphere was quickly broken.

"Xiu Ran, when did you come back... Oh, isn't this beauty..."

The smile on Yin Chengyu's face instantly subsided, and the breath around him also cooled down.
