Chapter 994

Lin Qiuqiu pursed her small mouth in her sleep, stretched out her jade hand and touched it on the bed, but she only touched the empty sheets.

"Li Qing?" Lin Qiuqiu screamed and suddenly got up. Her beautiful eyes swept around the room, with a deep panic at the bottom of her eyes.

Xiao simu was awakened by Lin Qiuqiu's sudden strange behavior, widened his small eyes and began to cry.

"Simu is good, simu doesn't cry..." Lin Qiuqiu gently held the baby in her arms, but Meimu didn't give up looking at the whole room for a moment. The bedspread on the side of the body was not even wrinkled, empty and traceless. Lin Qiuqiu couldn't help wondering. Did he just have a dream?

The door was pushed open with a squeak. Li Qing leaned against the door with a dinner plate and looked at Lin Qiuqiu with a smile: "you call me?"

The pair of gloomy beautiful eyes suddenly flashed a dazzling brilliance. Lin Qiuqiu lowered her head and stared at Xiao simu's pink face and pouted: "who called you? You must have heard wrong."

"Oh." Li Qing scooped the fruit salad from the plate into his mouth. "It's not six o'clock yet. Go to sleep."

"Don't sleep." Lin Qiuqiu put the baby sleeping again beside her, grabbed a pillow behind her, gently leaned against the head of the bed, and gave Li Qing a look: "what time is it? Do you eat?"

"I just went out for a walk." Li Qingyan rolled his eyes. "When I saw a piece of bacon, I suddenly felt a little hungry."

"Cured meat?" Lin Qiuqiu, who knew nothing, naturally couldn't understand Li Qing's ridicule, and his face was full of doubts.

Li Qing smiled, put the plate on the shelf next to the wall, went to the bed and sat down. His eyes stared at Lin Qiuqiu's pretty cheeks: "Qiuqiu, do you think... The Lin family is a little wrong."

Her pretty face changed slightly. Lin Qiuqiu asked softly, "what do you mean?"

Li Qing pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "I just went to Lin Sheng's residence and saw Zhao Liang's body in the reception hall on the first floor of the villa. He hanged himself on the chandelier on the roof with a climbing rope. I also found bullet marks and traces of light and micro fighting at the door."

Lin Qiuqiu stared in amazement and said, "Zhao Liang... Dead?"

"With your intelligence, you won't be unaware?"

"If you don't say this, I won't think much." Lin Qiuqiu pursed her lips. "When I just came back, I went to Grandpa's residence, but the door was locked and didn't go in. You know that I'm not popular in the Lin family. Lin Yuan said that I've been driven out of the family and I'm not allowed to enter the mourning hall."

Li Qing said, "what are you doing back?"

Lin Qiuqiu glanced at Li Qing: "Lin Yuan called me to inform grandpa of his death."

"Tut..." Li Qing's pupils narrowed slightly and his face showed a thoughtful color. "What are they doing? Since they don't welcome you, why take the initiative to let you back?"

"Qiuqiu, I'm a little worried." Li Qing pinched Lin Qiuqiu's jade wrist. "Don't stay. Shall we leave here and go home?"

As long as Lin Qiuqiu is OK, Li Qing will not pay more attention to what the Lin family is like, so he will have the impulse to take Lin Qiuqiu away from this land of right and wrong. However, Li Qing waited for a long time, but Lin Qiuqiu bowed her head and said nothing.

"Qiuqiu, what are you thinking?" Li Qing asked with a frown. "Do you still have feelings for here? Simu is your child, I am your husband, and Li's residence is your home. Why don't you want to go?"

"You misunderstood." Lin Qiuqiu gently raised her head, her eyes twinkled and her expression was meaningful. "Her father hasn't come back yet."

Li Qing sighed and looked helpless: "Qiuqiu, when did he really take you as his daughter? Do you have to stay so persistent to see him? You listen to me. Sometimes it's better not to see..."

The voice suddenly stopped. Li Qing found that Lin Qiuqiu was staring at himself without blinking, opened his mouth, and his cheeks floated with a touch of amazement.

"What do you think?" Lin Qiuqiu asked in a low voice.

Li Qing stood up and walked around the room. He felt something flash from his mind and had just been ignored by himself when he was talking.

After the last incident, Lin Qiuqiu has officially separated from the Lin family, which poses no threat to anyone in the Lin family. So after Lin Sheng's death, why did Lin Yuan call her back to Zhonghai for funeral? Is Lin Qiuqiu still valuable to Lin Yuan? What is her value?

Li Qing suddenly stopped, stared round and stared at Lin Qiuqiu tightly: "you shouldn't feel..."

"That's what I think." Lin Qiuqiu nodded. "They probably want to be bad for their father. I was called back from Lingang, just as a hostage at a necessary time."

"Are they crazy?" Li Qing said excitedly. "Lin Shiqing, Lin Shiyuan, this is a brother, and they want to make a play of fratricide? What are they trying to do? With your father's ruthless virtue, he even ignored his own daughter. He still has the mind to compete for the Lin family's industry?"

"My father certainly won't fight for the Lin family's property, but he still threatens uncle Shiqing." Lin Qiuqiu gently reminded, "you just said that Zhao Liang hanged himself and was in his grandfather's residence. Do you think Grandpa will die normally?"

"You mean that Lin Shiqing's father and son killed him?" Li Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment and couldn't help nodding gently. "Lin Sheng has always wanted to transfer the Lin family to Lin Mengdie, so he doesn't hesitate to kill the younger generation below. In order to protect themselves, they may really kill the old guy Lin Sheng."

"If this is true, everything will make sense." Li Qing sat down again at the bedside. "Although Lin Shiqing doesn't care about family affairs, he only cares about Buddha. But if it involves the life and death of his own son, he may not turn a deaf ear. The more he is, the more paranoid he is, and the trick of personally killing his father may not be impossible."

If Li Qing and Lin Qiuqiu's inference is correct, Lin Sheng really does not die normally. When Lin Shiyuan returns to the Lin family and finds all this, he will not give up. In order to protect themselves, Lin Shiqing and his son will make arrangements early and start first. As long as Lin Qiuqiu is still in the Lin family, he will be taken as an important hostage to threaten Lin Shiyuan at a critical moment.

In this way, Li Qing can fully explain Lin Mengdie's abnormal mood, which is quite different from usual.

Li Qing looked out of the window and said, "when will your father come back?"

"I don't know. Tomorrow morning at the latest."

"My father died and didn't go home until three days later. Lin Shiyuan is really very human..." Li Qing said carelessly. He found Lin Qiuqiu's face very ugly and hurried to stop talking, "We're just guessing. There's no substantive evidence at all. It's going to dawn now. It's not easy to take action. I'll go to the mourning hall tonight while it's dark to see what the Lin family are doing."

Lin Qiuqiu hesitated: "if their purpose is really... What should they do?"

"You shouldn't have asked me about such a thing." Li Qing smiled, stretched out her hand and stroked Lin Qiuqiu's white and beautiful cheek. "If our guess is confirmed, what are you going to do?"

Lin Qiuqiu was silent and didn't answer. Li Qing didn't force him to get up and walked outside the door: "I'll prepare breakfast. You can sleep a little longer. When you're ready, I'll call you."

Li Qing went down the stairs, stood in front of the window on the first floor and looked out. It was gradually bright outside, the water mist on the small pond and lotus leaves.

Opening the door, Li Qing took a deep breath of the morning air and swept his eyes in the woods outside the villa.

He stood there for a while, and then walked towards the grove step by step. More than 30 meters away from the periphery of the grove, there was a sudden sound of rubbing branches and leaves.

"Still want to run?" there was a chill in the bottom of his eyes. Li Qing drank softly and walked forward.

The green branches and leaves passed by quickly. Li Qing's body suddenly came around the absconder and stopped his way.

"Why are you like dog skin plaster? It's not enough for me to kill one, and now one runs out to die." Li Qing moved helplessly, and the man in front of him retreated with fear.

Li Qing stretched out his hand and said, "step back, and then step back..."

"Yes, it's here. Stop, stop." Li Qing gestured, then asked with a smile, "do you know why I want you to stand here?"

Seeing that the other party didn't answer, Li Qing said to himself, "because the one before you died at your feet."

The man opposite suddenly changed his face, his forehead suddenly burst, took out a dagger from his waist and shouted at Li Qing.

He took a half step back and waited until the man rushed over. Li Qing suddenly pinched his wrist and pulled it out, so he easily grabbed the dagger from his hand.

With a flick of his wrist, the man had been thrown to the ground by Li Qing and gasped.

"I'm in a good mood today. I don't want to kill people." Li Qing turned the dagger between his fingers and said faintly, "as long as you tell the main person behind you, I'll let you go. I hope you're smarter and don't grind my patience."

After that, Li Qing narrowed her eyes and looked at the man opposite, but the latter opened her mouth and couldn't say a word.

"Are you a mute?" Li Qing asked impatiently.

"Ah... Ah..."

The pupil suddenly shrunk. Li Qing took a step back and looked stunned: "really a mute?"

"Then there's no need to keep you." the voice fell. Li Qing's body swayed gently from the man's side, and a blood splash splashed on the ground
