That night, Xiao Zheng and the other two had a scrumptious dinner at a restaurant nearby. It was a welcome dinner for Tina. Then, they returned to the hotel together.
As they were not in the country, their current condition was not suitable for making babies. Hence, Old Lin focused all his energy on work and left Xiao Zheng alone in the living room to watch TV.
Ten o 'clock at night. Xiao Zheng wanted to wash up and rest. He wanted to conserve his energy for tomorrow's memorial service, which would be full of variables. Just as he got up, his phone rang at an untimely time.
It was an unknown number.
"Hello?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"Boss Xiao, you're not asleep yet?" A magnetic voice came from the other side of the phone. Although it was his first time hearing it over the phone, it was not unfamiliar.
It was Qiu Shu.
This woman's voice was magnetic and full of temptation. Through the modification of the radio waves, it became more mysterious.
"No." Xiao Zheng was not sure of the other party's intention, so he tried to ask. "Boss Qiu, why are you looking for me so late at night?"
"Can't I look for you if there's nothing?" Qiu Shu's magnetic voice was heard. However, Xiao Zheng clearly remembered that those white men had only taken a few glances at her alluring body before they were slaughtered by Chun Sheng and Xia Zhang.
What an inhumane woman.
"It's best not to look for me if there's nothing," Xiao Zheng said with a strong attitude.
"Looks like Boss Xiao isn't curious about how Bai Zheng Qing died?" Qiu Shu said with a regretful tone. "Forget it then. I'll just take it that I'm asking for trouble. "
After saying that, he was about to hang up.
"Wait." Xiao Zheng immediately stopped Qiu Shu. His expression changed. "Boss Qiu knows the inside story?"
"I don't. Why would I look for Boss Xiao in the middle of the night?" Qiu Shu asked.
Xiao Zheng thought about it for a while and decided on a location with Qiu Shu. 'See you in half an hour.'
He greeted Old Lin and informed Tina that he was going out. Then, he drove to the destination.
This was a bar that was opened on a pedestrian street. It had an elegant style and was not cheap. Most of the customers were elites. Xiao Zheng soon found the equally mysterious Autumn Harvest in a rather dark corner.
She was wearing the same bewitching cheongsam as always, and her lips were red. Xiao Zheng nodded in greeting and sat opposite him with a calm expression.
Without waiting for Xiao Zheng to speak, Qiu Shou took the initiative to say, "The cocktails here are pretty good. Boss Xiao, would you like a cup? "
"Okay." Xiao Zheng smiled, but his gaze fell on Qiu Shou's beautiful face without anyone noticing. After a moment of silence, he asked. "What does Boss Qiu know?"
"Of course I know you don't know, but you want to know." Qiu Shou kept her in suspense.
Xiao Zheng frowned and pursed his lips, "Then what do I need to pay?"
How could a woman like Qiu Shou be willing to make a losing deal?
Since she took the initiative to call him out, she must have already prepared a deal to take advantage of him. If Xiao Zheng wanted to know the inside story, he would have to pay a price.
However, Bai Zheng Qing's death was extremely crucial. Xiao Zheng was also willing to pay a certain price to know the inside story. Whether it was to deal with the upcoming situation or to help Uncle Bai solve his problems.
"Boss Xiao still owes me a promise." Qiu Shou smiled faintly. "If you owe me one, I'm afraid you won't be able to pay it off in this lifetime."
"Then use something I can pay for in cash." Xiao Zheng said calmly.
"Cash?" Qiu Shou squinted her bewitching eyes and opened her red lips slightly. "Boss Xiao is hinting that you can sleep with me?"
"— —"
At this time, the cocktails were served.
Xiao Zheng picked up the glass and drank more than half of it. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Qiu Shou's beautiful face full of mischief. He shook his head and said, "Boss Qiu, I don't know if the current situation is difficult for you. But for many people, it is not easy. If you are just here to interrupt me, I won't accompany you. "
Qiu Shou squinted her eyes and looked at Xiao Zheng. After a while, she said slowly, "I really didn't expect that Boss Xiao is such a warm-hearted man."
Xiao Zheng didn't understand Qiu Shou's intention, so he didn't continue.
"Doesn't Boss Xiao have a grudge against Bai Wushuang?" Qiu Shou asked knowingly.
"But I don't have a grudge against the old man," Xiao Zheng said slowly. "And I have established a deep friendship with Uncle Bai."
"Friendship?" Qiu Shou squinted her eyes and asked. "Boss Xiao believes in this?"
"Why not?" Xiao Zheng asked back.
"What a kind man." Qiu Shou smiled faintly.
Xiao Zheng saw that Qiu Shou wasn't in a hurry to reveal the truth, so he immediately restrained his anxiety. He slowly sipped the cocktail and changed the topic, "As far as I know, your first target for revenge is the Bai family?"
His words were quite sharp, and even had the suspicion of exposing the trump card of the Zhao family. But Qiu Shou wasn't surprised at all. He just said unhurriedly, "It seems that Boss Xiao really knows a lot."
"Then can I believe that the old man's death has something to do with your conspiracy?" Xiao Zheng changed the topic and asked with sharp eyes.
No one was more suspicious than the Zhao family's descendant!
No one was more unscrupulous and lawless than the Zhao family's descendant!
Who was Bai Zhenqing?
Who dared to make a move against him?
Was he not afraid of the anger of the big shots?
The old man had been in the south for decades. His foundation and connections were beyond the imagination of ordinary people. He could take away the host's qualification from Lin Laoyao not only because he had a secret deal with Lin Laoyao, but also because he had the qualification to host!
It wasn't something that Lin Laoyao could give to whoever he wanted!
"I thought that Boss Xiao's brain could be more flexible. I didn't expect that you still can't be free, "Qiu Shou said meaningfully.
"Am I not free, or Boss Qiu is eager to clear your name?" Xiao Zheng paused and suddenly added. "Clear the name of the Zhao family's descendant?"
Qiu Shou was silent.
A faint smile gradually appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Boss Xiao, you don't need to provoke me." Qiu Shou saw through Xiao Zheng's mind. "Since I took the initiative to tell you, I don't plan to get anything from you."
Xiao Zheng shrugged and said, "What I said is just a reasonable speculation."
"But Boss Xiao is very wrong," Qiu Shou said with narrowed eyes.
"Oh?" Xiao Zheng asked. "Is there someone who has a grudge against the old man?"
"I don't know if there is a grudge," Qiu Shou said word by word. "But Bai Zhenqing's death is definitely not an accident. It's murder. "
Xiao Zheng's heart sank when he heard that!
Li Mu's guess was right. The old man didn't die of an accident!
"A new drug that hasn't been released yet. As long as it is used appropriately, with the help of external forces, it can easily cause a heart attack. Even the hospital can't find anything, "Qiu Shou said slowly. "And as far as I know, the person who developed this new drug is Bai Wushuang's father, Bai Ziwen."
