Chapter 1141 The Eve of the Storm
After seeing Xu Lixuan's frustration at this moment, Wei Zhong sneered and said, "Okay, I promise you, and then I'll ask you for tomorrow's business."
Xu Lixuan: “…”
—————
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Chen Bahuang has returned to his home at the top of the Genting.
The moment he entered the house, the little girl rushed over: "Uncle Chen, where is my father and Uncle Liu?"
After hearing this question, Chen Bahuang was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer it.
Before he came back, he learned two things in total.
One is that Xu Lixuan has fallen into Wei Zhong's hands.
The second is that he received news that Liu Xin died in battle.
Looking at the little girl in front of her with anticipation and red eyes, Chen Bahuang couldn't help but frown and forced a smile and said, "Uncle Liu and Lord Xu are in a safe place now. Because they are being monitored, I can't bring them to you, otherwise you will be in danger."
"Uncle Chen, you didn't lie to me, right?" The always-wise little girl noticed the strange expression on Chen Bahuang's face, but this time, this smart little girl did not express her guess as confidently as usual. Instead, she suppressed the answer that she absolutely did not want to accept in her heart. "Uncle Chen knows magic, so she will definitely be able to save her father and Uncle Liu. I believe you, Uncle Chen..."
When Chen Bahuang heard the little girl's words, he felt like he had knocked the five flavor bottle over. He reached out and gently stroked the little girl's delicate face, wiped away the tears on his face, and then squeezed out a smile and said, "Of course, I know magic. There is nothing that your uncle can't do."
"Uh-huh……"
For some reason, the little girl at this moment had obviously got the exact answer, but she felt sad and tears couldn't stop thrusting out of her eyes.
"No, Uncle Chen has clearly said that my father and Uncle Liu are safe, so why do I still cry?"
"I shouldn't cry now..."
The little girl muttered to herself with some regret.
Chen Bahuang: “…”
This is the first time Chen Bahuang has lie to the little girl in front of him.
It was the first time in these years that such an unwilling thing was said.
Because of this, when he saw the sad expression of the little girl in front of him at this moment, he didn't know how to comfort him for a moment.
"It's okay, stop crying."
OK, at this time Fang Jing walked over and picked up the little girl.
If anyone knows Chen Bahuang the best in his thoughts, then it must be Fang Jing.
So from the moment Chen Bahuang returned home and stepped into the door, Fang Jing knew that Chen Bahuang was lying.
Moreover, Fang Jing also knew the reason why Chen Bahuang lied.
When Fang Jing noticed Chen Bahuang's always frowning, when he heard Chen Bahuang's insincere words and the smile that forced out of Chen Bahuang's face, he felt very uncomfortable.
She knew there were many things she couldn't help.
But Fang Jing also knew that there were some things she could help.
"Anyway, both your father and your Uncle Liu are safe now, so there is no need for you to cry anymore." Fang Jing smiled and helped the little girl wipe her tears, then carried her back to the sofa, "After this period of time, your father will come to see you."
"Before that, if you cry your eyes out, your father will worry."
During the time when Fang Jing comforted the little girl, Chen Bahuang had called Ouyang and Wang De quietly returned to his room.
"Mr. Chen called us two here. Do you have any instructions?" Wang De asked with a slightly solemn expression.
"For the next period of time, there are some things that need your help." Chen Bahuang sat on the bed, staring at the two people in front of him with a blank expression, "I also have another requirement, that is, no matter what I experience next, you cannot help me."
After hearing Chen Bahuang's words, Wang De and Ouyang all showed confusion.
The two of them could understand Chen Bahuang's first order, but the second order made them puzzled.
"Master Eighth Master, I have been with you for so long, and I have already put my life and death aside. As long as I can help you, let alone anything else, I can give up even this life..."
Ouyang, who heard Chen Bahuang's words, subconsciously thought that what Chen Bahuang had to do next was very dangerous and was unwilling to implicate him. However, before he could finish his words, Chen Bahuang reached out to stop him.
"It's not what you think. I know your thoughts, but if you really want to help me, then do what I said." Chen Bahuang put it on Ouyang's shoulder and said solemnly, "Remember what I just said. No matter what happens to me next, you are not allowed to help me."
After hearing this, Ouyang wanted to continue speaking: "But..."
"Do you want to violate my order?" Chen Bahuang interrupted him again.
"I dare not..." Ouyang Chang sighed and responded.
"That's right." Chen Bahuang took back his hand and continued, "I have my own plan. All you have to do is do as I told you, and don't mess up my plan."
After hearing these words, Ouyang nodded heavily: "I understand."
At this moment, Wang De suddenly looked at Chen Bahuang and took the initiative to speak, "Sir Guozhu, then can I do something?"
"You are very helpful to me, but there are great risks, it depends on whether you are willing to do it." Chen Bahuang no longer hides his cover when he heard the other party mentioning his help.
"Mr. Guozhu, I'm going to tell you that the reason why I helped you like this is actually my brother-in-law." Wang De scratched his head with a smile and explained, "If not, although I don't think Wei Zhong is happy, I won't be enemies like this. So, if Lord Guozhu has any instructions, just give me your orders. Don't treat me as an outsider."
"I know." After hearing this explanation, Chen Bahuang nodded with a smile, then approached Wang De's ear and said something to him.
After hearing Chen Bahuang's words, Wang De's expression seemed a little solemn and was silent for a long time.
After noticing Wang De's expression, Chen Bahuang took the initiative to speak: "If you feel you can do it, you can refuse."
"I'll help you with this." The expression on Wang De's face turned into a firmness, "I believe that Lord Guozhu and his brother-in-law have the arrangement."
"Since that's the case, I won't let you down, nor will I put you at any risk."
After saying this, Chen Bahuang stood up and stretched. He looked at the scene outside through the window in the room and said calmly: "In short, everything depends on tomorrow."
After hearing this, Wang De and Ouyang's expressions seemed a little heavy.
At the same time, the old princess surprised to leave her work and came to the pavilion outside the villa, watching the swan playing on the water on the lake.
On the other hand, after Xu Lixuan learned about tomorrow's actions and plans from Wei Zhong's mouth, his face looked extremely gloomy.
