C69 The truth

Even though the feng shui phasography came from a bloodline, it had many branches. The Heaven Realm and the Phantom were incompatible like fire and water. Other than the disciple from the Phantom that was by Chen Bei Huang's side, Lin Bai did not believe that there would be another disciple from the Phantom that appeared in the fourth or ninth city all of a sudden.

"Did the Chen family use this mother and daughter pair to threaten you?!" Lin Bai said indifferently as he looked at Li Keqin. His voice did not have the slightest of emotion.

Li Keqin was originally looking timidly at his Nannan, but after hearing Lin Bai's words, he suddenly raised his head, and said with a trembling voice: "What Chen Family? "I don't know. I was the only one who did this, it has nothing to do with anyone else. You can stop pestering me."

"I don't want to find out, but I can't watch a little girl who has just turned two years old without a father, and I can't watch a woman I like who searches every day but can't find her husband's body, so I have to find out." Lin Bai continued to speak while looking at Li Keqin, "That's why I ask you to be at ease, and tell me the truth about what happened to you."

Li Keqin lowered his head, held up the little girl's face in his hands, and stared into the little girl's pure and flawless eyes, as he softly said. "I cannot say, even if I told you, you wouldn't believe me."

"Speak, as long as you speak of it, we will believe you. Since we can come in and see you, we can naturally release you as well. " Liu Jingtian said. Hearing Li Keqin's words, Liu Jingtian couldn't help but become curious. He wanted to know what Li Keqin saw all those years ago that caused him to act like this.

Li Keqin clenched his teeth, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Someone threatened me. If I told them what I saw then, then my family's life would not be saved. So over these years, I chose to remain silent."

Seeing Li Keqin's somewhat dejected expression, Lin Bai reached out and took out a cigarette from Liu Jingtian's body, lit it up, and handed it over. Although smoking was not good, nicotine had a certain calming effect. It would be best to use it to calm Li Keqin's heart.

As the smoke in the room began to rise, the events of the past began to unfold one by one in front of everyone.

After Li Keqin's promotion, a colleague who often went out to travel suggested that they should go to the tidal river to eat at a roadside food stall. Thus, the group of people went to the side of the tidal river.

After three rounds of drinking and a few skewers of meat, the scorching heat in the air, along with the effects of the chili peppers and wine, mixed together. The group then went to the river to take a bath. Li Keqin didn't like the liveliness, so he went upstream with a colleague. Who knew that when they reached the upstream, they would see a few figures moving about. Li Keqin had good eyes, but he seemed to be vaguely able to tell that someone was drowning.

Just as he was about to go up to rescue them, he saw two other people on the riverbank. One of them was dressed in Daoist attire, as if he was preparing something, while the other one was looking at the struggling people in the river.

Seeing that, Li Keqin's colleague was shocked, and shouted loudly. However, before he could say anything, the old Daoist Priest moved his hand. An extremely cold black shadow shot towards them.

When Li Keqin regained his senses, he was leaning on the car while his colleagues were killed by the wheel of the car.

"Later on, that young man brought along Lin Lin's photo to find me in the prison, and warned me that if I were to speak of what happened that year, my family's life would be lost," Saying that, Li Keqin clenched his teeth, his eyes revealing a hint of coldness, and killing intent.

Lin Bai stared blankly for a moment. He vaguely sensed something and hurriedly asked: "Do you know what that young man's name is?"

"When I was in a coma, I heard someone calling him Bei Huang. I don't know anything else!" Li Keqin lowered his head to think for a moment, and said softly.

The air suddenly quieted down, leaving only the ticking of the clock in the large living room.

After being stunned for a moment, Xia Xiaoqing stared at Li Keqin and said with a trembling voice: "Impossible, you're lying, Bei Huang and Nan Yu are brothers, how could they do such a thing!"

As far as Xia Xiaoqing knew, Chen Beihuang and Chen Nanyu had a pretty good relationship. Although Chen Bei Huang liked to go out and stir up trouble initially, he still had some respect for Chen Nanyu and their relationship was quite friendly. Although there were quite a few battles between the big clans in the four or nine cities, their seniors all had strict rules prohibiting internal fights.

Furthermore, after Chen Nanyu died, Chen Beihuang had to show respect to Xia Xiaoqing. Therefore, the matter that Li Keqin was talking about had completely surpassed Xia Xiaoqing's capability to think. She could not believe that Chen Beihuang would do such a crazy thing.

"Tell me what you said is not true." Xia Xiaoqing said while staring at Li Keqin.

Li Keqin looked up with a bitter smile, and said while choking in his throat: "I already said that no one would believe me, who would be willing to believe that a young master of the capital's hands was stained with blood!"

Hearing Li Keqin's words, Xia Xiaoqing's body suddenly bent, as though she had suddenly aged, and even her lips were trembling.

No matter what, she wouldn't be able to imagine it. Chen Nanyu, who had gone all out in his efforts in order to make the Chen Family shine once again in politics, would actually die in the hands of his own younger brother in the end. All of the efforts he had made and all of the sacrifices he had made, when he thought back to it, were just like a sneer.

Xia Xiaoqing felt that the thing she had been persisting in was like she had been turned upside down in an instant. Even someone like her, who was used to life being heavily damaged, found it hard to endure this kind of blow.

Looking at Xia Xiaoqing's pale face, even her lips were completely bloodless. Lin Bai hurriedly supported her shoulders and whispered, "Xiao Qing, it is normal for there to be so many scum in this world. Things have already happened so long, so you shouldn't be too distracted."

"Thank you for telling me the truth. Don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter to the end. I will definitely give you an explanation and make it up to you!" Xia Xiaoqing took a deep breath, not daring to look Li Keqin in the eye as she said softly.

Li Keqin didn't say anything, and looked dejectedly at the grey-colored ceiling. A mocking smile touched the corner of his mouth, and he softly said: "An explanation?! Compensation?! What kind of explanation, what kind of compensation can restore my most youthful time, and can compensate me for missing out on my daughter's growing up?! "

Silence reigned in the living room. No one spoke for a long time. Li Keqin was indeed right, if he owed someone money, then he would just return it tenfold or even a hundredfold. But with such a precious time and happy life, who could make up for it?

"Xiao Qing, this has nothing to do with you. You don't have to blame yourself. The culprit is Chen Beihuang. Now that we know all of this, even if that kid has the power, he won't be able to turn the situation around." Lin Bai gently stroked Xia Xiaoqing's back and said gently.

The air in the living room was extremely heavy and depressing. Lin Bai was afraid that if he stayed inside any longer, Xia Xiaoqing would have some sort of reaction, so he quickly brought Xia Xiaoqing and walked out. Liu Jingtian greeted the Warden and helped Li Keqin complete the formalities of being a doctor on foreign affairs, allowing the Li family members to gather together.

Xia Xiaoqing's expression was extremely bad, but she did not object to Lin Bai holding her arm. The prison was located in the suburbs of the capital, so it was extremely quiet outside. Xia Xiaoqing looked at the lush and verdant mountain forest, turned her head and looked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai nodded and agreed. Going out to walk around to take a breath of fresh air was a good method to temporarily ease his mood.

"Sometimes I think, if I was born in a normal family, it would be better to be a little stupid if I wasn't so smart. That way, I'll have less of what I can only do now. Find an ordinary husband, give birth to a less intelligent son, and don't think about wealth or wealth, just living a dull life is very good. " Xia Xiaoqing murmured as she looked at the distant lush green mountains.

Lin Bai laughed bitterly a few times, and said softly, "There is no such thing as good in this world. You now think that little people are incredibly happy, but you don't know that they are also worried. Worried about the rise in the price of tea with salt and vinegar, worried about the unattainable house, worried about the disaster that might happen at any moment. "No matter what position you are in, life isn't as good as you think it is?"

"At least they can be happy." Xia Xiaoqing sat at the side of a small mountain path and said indifferently as she picked up a small flower beside the road and placed it at the tip of her nose.

Lin Bai did not reply. After being silent for a long while, he turned his head and followed Xia Xiaoqing's gaze towards the group of people in the distance. He said softly, "If you are willing, although I can't guarantee that I will be happy, it will at least make you a lot happier."

"Of course, I don't want you to answer me because I helped you find the corpse, or because I want to help you with the Feng Shui Bureau. I'm not in a hurry for you to give me an answer, so I can wait." Lin Bai said while beaming.

Xia Xiaoqing did not speak. His eyes began to moisten as she raised her head to look at the distant mountains that were hazy to his eyes. She bit her lips.

"I'm a little man and you're a little woman. To be honest, I think we're really well-matched." Lin Bai suddenly bent down and moved closer to Xia Xiaoqing's face, staring at her slightly panicking eyes, he said seriously.
