To be honest, Lin Mengya felt a little uneasy.
She was aware of his doubts, and she was afraid that she would disrupt the plan that he had painstakingly laid out.
But she couldn't bear to let him fight alone.
She had done everything in the hope that she could walk side by side with him.
And now, she finally had some confidence.
As their eyes met, Long Tianhao suddenly understood what she was thinking.
He smiled without any psychological burden.
He stroked her head lovingly and said softly, "Do what you want to do. I believe in you."
His heart, which was hanging in suspense, was properly ironed by this sentence.
She smiled brightly and put her hands on his neck.
"Yes!"
He believed in her. This was more wonderful than any words of love.
The Bai Family's reaction was slower than she had expected.
Her brother and Yu had witnessed the situation that day. If it were not for the group of people that Bai Shi 'an brought back to protect them with their lives, the Bai Family would have been slaughtered.
On the afternoon of the third day, she finally saw Bai Shi 'an, who was exhausted.
Compared to the previous times they met, Bai Shi 'an's face was gloomy and his eyes were bloodshot. Even his clothes were not as neat as before.
He looked as if he had not slept for a few days.
In fact, he had not slept for a few days since that day.
He sat alone on a chair in the hall, and his slightly hunched back looked a little lonely.
Lin Mengya stood at the door and hesitated for a moment.
The person inside seemed to sense her and turned around to see her.
He forced a weak smile, but it was tainted with bitterness as he thought of something.
Lin Mengya walked up to him and asked softly, "Are you alright?"
There were some sincere greetings in her voice.
Bai Shi 'an realized that he felt a sense of inferiority when he saw her again, even though they had not seen each other for a few days.
In the end, he realized that they were not the same kind of people.
It was just like the day when he tried his best to protect his family. That ferocious-looking enemy was easily defeated by that man and his men.
He was not jealous, nor was he unwilling. He just did not want to accept his fate so easily.
But now, he finally realized the gap between him and them.
The Bai family was still too arrogant, so arrogant that they completely lost their vigilance. They didn't notice the worm that was breeding in the decaying.
Lin Mengya could empathize with his dejected look.
Back then, the Gong family was probably in a similar situation.
Both of them had their own thoughts. For a moment, neither of them spoke.
After putting an end to his wild thoughts, Bai Shi 'an said with difficulty, "Bai Jiarou colluded with the enemy and even wanted to ambush you on your way back. Fortunately, I hadn't told anyone about my actions that night, but I wasn't sure if they had any accomplices. When you go back, you have to be careful. "
Lin Mengya nodded in acknowledgment of his good intentions.
As it turned out, the most underestimated member of the Bai family was Bai Shi'an.
The fact that he was able to find out from the clues that someone had escaped that night, and that he was able to hide it from everyone in the Bai Family, was the best proof.
However, her plan to poach the talent back to her family was going to fail.
The Bai family could not do without Bai Shi'an.
She couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He should have a broader stage, and not be trapped in the mud of the Bai family.
But they all knew that this was their destiny that they could not avoid.
Bai Shi'an opened his mouth, but felt that there was nothing between them that could be used as a topic of conversation.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head. Everyone said that he was eloquent and could even use sweet words to make the courtesan in the brothel smile.
But in front of her, he was like a young boy who had just awakened his first love.
Really, he had lived all these years in vain.
Lin Mengya saw that he wanted to say something, but thought that he had something that was difficult to say.
Out of concern for her ally, she took the initiative to ask.
"But what do you need help with?"
"No, nothing. By the way, there's news from Uncle Cheng that Feng Chen's case will soon have a conclusion. Do you want to sit in and listen? "
He was a little anxious. He knew that this was not a good thing, but he couldn't think of anything else to say.
Lin Mengya thought for a moment and said, "Of course I'll go, but once Feng Chen's case is over, we'll go back. Thank you for taking care of me these days. "
Her warm smile immediately made the uneasiness in his heart gradually fade.
The love that had not had the time to become turbulent had actually quietly hidden itself at this moment.
He seemed to have an epiphany in an instant. He knew that some love was never for the purpose of possession.
He relaxed, content to bear only the name of a friend.
"If there's a chance in the future, please come again."
Lin Mengya didn't know if it was her illusion, but she felt that the person in front of her seemed to have softened a lot.
"Well, it's a deal!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, but there was no ambiguity.
In the courtyard, someone who was staring at the inside quietly loosened his clenched fists.
That boy was sensible!
He turned around and saw the three brothers of the Gong family behind him, who did not have time to escape, staring at him.
Gong Er's expression did not change. He just walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "You're a man, why be so stingy."
But Long Tianhao just glanced at him coldly and strode away.
In the end, there was a particularly annoying sentence.
"In the future, please be generous and let me go back to my room."
Hearing this, the three immediately changed their expressions.
Especially Gong Er, he gnashed his teeth and raised his fists.
"You brat! Sooner or later I'll beat you up! "
The other two lowered their heads, hiding the look of unwillingness on their faces.
They would not admit that every night they tried to stop that person from entering their sister's boudoir, it ended in failure!
Their days suddenly became leisurely.
The date for the retrial of Feng Chen's case was set for two days later.
She knew that the reason why it was so fast was because Bai Jiarou was exposed.
She did not deliberately participate in it, but just asked the people in the branch to report the progress of the matter at any time.
They had almost packed up, and they would embark on the return journey as soon as Feng Chen's case was over.
Everyone in the family was incredibly excited about this.
After being away for so many days, they were all homesick.
In the blink of an eye, the day of the retrial arrived.
Even though Bai Shi 'an had sent someone to invite them early in the morning, when they arrived at the guard camp, they still saw three layers of people inside and three layers outside.
After what had happened with Sir Xunyang, the people already had questions in their hearts.
Those details that had been deliberately ignored by others also gradually came to the surface.
The truth that had been tampered with was on the verge of being revealed.
When they arrived at the main hall of the guard camp, Bai Cheng also appeared.
He was not surprised to see them appear, only nodding slightly in greeting. Lin Mengya obediently returned the greeting.
Lin Mengya returned the greeting obediently. She was only here to listen and would not get involved.
Bai Cheng sat at the head of the table and sternly ordered his subordinates.
"Bring the criminal."
Not long after, the black-robed Feng Chen, accompanied by Bai Lu, appeared in front of the crowd.
From time to time, the surrounding people would whisper to each other.
Some of them had experienced that storm three years ago, so they naturally felt a little emotional.
Three years ago, Feng Chen had been full of mettle. Even though he had been condemned by a thousand people, he had still been impassioned and unyielding.
At the time, they had all felt that Feng Chen would never repent, but now that they thought about it, wasn't that also because he had a clear conscience?
Since he had done nothing wrong, why did he admit it?
More and more people began to feel admiration for him.
But they had forgotten that three years ago, it was they who had spurned and cursed Feng Chen, even nailing him to the pillar of shame.
Although Lin Mengya heard these people's discussions, she felt nothing.
This was public opinion. It could make a person a sage through the ages, but it could also make a person go down in history with infamy.
Fortunately, she had already developed a body of steel. The words of bystanders could no longer make her waver in the slightest.
She looked at Feng Chen and saw that his back was straight and fearless, his face as calm as still water. He did not seem to care in the slightest about what these people were saying.
She couldn't help but inwardly praise him. It was said that talent emerged from adversity, and this Feng Chen was a good seedling.
"Release me! You bastards, release me! "
A sharp clamor came from the other side.
Two guards were escorting a man who was in a sorry state and were walking towards them.
She narrowed her eyes, and after a while, she recognized that the person in front of her, with unkempt hair and dirty face, with wrinkled clothes, was actually the elegant Xun Ziyang.
That person was still making a noise, trying to break free from the people beside him.
But how could he be a match for the two guards, and was almost dragged all the way here.
"Commander, the criminal has been brought here."
The two guards threw the person on the ground without a care and returned to the team.
After lying on the ground for a while, he got up from the ground.
However, his eyes were already filled with venomous rage.
"What right do you have to arrest me? I'm not guilty! "
"How dare you!"
Bai Cheng glared and shouted angrily.
Xun Ziyang immediately shrank back, but there was still some unwillingness to admit defeat on his face.
The surrounding people began to discuss again, but the target had changed from praising Feng Chen to belittling Xun Ziyang.
This time, there were all kinds of unpleasant words.
Xun Ziyang was like a frog, glaring angrily at those people who were criticizing him.
"Shut up! Who do you think you are to talk about me like that? "
But now, who would give him any face?
Immediately, one of the more powerful ones spat on him with all his might.
"You still think you're Sir Xun Yang's head disciple? Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror and see what kind of dog you are! "
"You dare talk about me like that? Do you want to die? "
Xun Ziyang was instantly enraged. As if he had lost all reason, he charged at that person.
However, the guard next to him wasn't dead. He slapped him back to where he came from.
He retreated a few steps and fell to the ground, the crowd roaring with laughter.
Lin Mengya was the only one who frowned.
