Chapter 227: Allure of Snow
Of course Huangfu Yiqiu knew that the reason why Qian Gouzi's case was shelved or classified as an accidental death was probably related to Xue Qingcheng's cooperation with the jade mine!
She gritted her teeth and hummed to herself: These officials, who are like little ants, know that they don't even care about the lives of the people!
So, she simply called her deputy director in charge and asked to take a day off to explore the jade mine at night.
However, the other party did not allow her to take leave at all! They said that the situation was tight recently and no one was allowed to ask for leave.
She really had no choice but to postpone her night exploration of the jade mine for a few days.
When Lin Erdan learned that she was not coming tonight, he felt empty in his heart. From time to time, Huangfu Yiqiu's graceful, noble and heroic face would appear in his mind.
The night of the 25th of the twelfth lunar month was already quite cold, with the cold wind howling.
Knock knock! Someone is knocking on the door?
Lin Erdan came to the corridor and listened for a while. Su Yuhe was already asleep. It was indeed someone knocking on his courtyard door.
He quickly went to open the door: "Who?"
"It's me. I'm freezing to death. Why don't you hurry up and open the door?" The voice that sounded outside the courtyard door was actually Yang Jieya's.
Lin Erdan quickly opened the courtyard door and let her in: "Why are you here so late at night?"
Yang Jieya was wearing a purple down jacket and a headscarf. She stomped her feet and ran inside: "I'm freezing to death. I want to get under the covers!"
Lin Erdan glanced at her Bentley car, closed the courtyard door, and followed her to the bedroom on the first floor where she used to live: "I'll turn on the electric heater for you."
Yang Jieya rubbed her hands and breathed: "Oh, it's so cold."
Lin Erdan said: "It's Chinese New Year, why don't you enjoy the blessings in Wuyang City instead of going to our remote village to suffer?"
Yang Jieya glared at him: "I don't want to come! If it weren't for grandpa, he...Oh, let's not talk anymore, go to sleep."
She got directly into bed and shivered inside.
Lin Erdan grinned: "Looking at how cold you are... why don't you let me help you warm up?"
"Ah? No, no, no, get out! Don't think about good things!" Yang Jieya covered her head and refused.
Lin Erdan smiled and said, "What I mean is, I'll bring you an electric blanket. You don't want it?"
"Yes! Of course I want it!" Yang Jieya hurriedly showed her head, "Go and get it, why are you still standing there?"
Lin Erdan spread his hands: "Someone just kept saying he didn't want it."
Ten minutes later, the electric blanket seemed to have an effect, and Yang Jieya returned to normal.
"Tell me, why are you back?" Lin Erdan continued to ask, "Are you planning to celebrate the New Year in Balitun? Are there any rules?"
Yang Jieya sighed: "I have no choice. Grandpa said that he came to Balitun to celebrate the New Year."
"What?" Lin Erdan was shocked, "He came to Balitun to celebrate the New Year? Why?"
Although Lin Erdan held a grudge against Lin Yuanfeng, he was related by blood. He knew that Lin Yuanfeng was almost 70 years old. If he came to Balitun, would he be able to withstand the weather here? There might not be any heating facilities here.
Yang Jieya looked at Lin Erdan: "Are you really confused, or are you just pretending? I experienced a killer attack at that time, which scared me. After I went back, I told my grandfather about it, and he couldn't sit still immediately.
, regardless of whether his asthma will get worse, he is determined to come to Balitun to stay for a while."
The muscles on Lin Erdan's face jumped a few times: "Asthma?"
Yang Jieya said: "Don't worry, Uncle Wei and several of his apprentices have prepared heating facilities in advance. He lives in the empty house next to Widow Wang's house in the east of the village."
Lin Erdan was silent in thought.
Yang Jieya smiled and said: "Grandpa bought that house."
Lin Erdan was secretly shocked: The old man is so efficient! He has actually managed such a thing!
However, Lin Erdan still didn't express anything. The tragic death of his parents really made him have a deep grudge against his grandfather and he couldn't let go.
"I'm going to bed." Lin Erdan turned to leave.
"Hey? Don't leave! I still have something to say." Yang Jieya couldn't help but say.
"Say." Lin Erdan only said one word, his mood was not high, he stopped leaving, but did not turn around.
Yang Jieya said: "Just now, grandpa went to pay homage to his uncle's grave."
Lin Erdan was obviously a little excited, and his body was trembling: "Huh, so what if you pay homage? People are already dead, and they won't come back to life!"
He quickened his pace and went upstairs and left directly.
Lin Erdan suffered from insomnia. With his eyes wide open, he recalled the scenes when his parents were still alive. Unknowingly, his face was filled with tears and his pillow was wet.
Suddenly, swoosh! The sound of windy clothes outside passed by the roof of the second floor!
Lin Erdan immediately calmed down and sat up: Master! Even Lin Erdan could hear that this master was deliberately trying to lure him out!
This shows that this master is a man of martial ethics. Even if he has to fight with Lin Erdan, he will not implicate others.
Lin Erdan must go out and challenge! If he does nothing, the other party will definitely not give up, but will implicate Su Yuhe or Yang Jieya, which will not be beautiful.
Lin Erdan turned over and walked out of the room. When he floated down the corridor, he saw a white figure floating away fifty meters away.
He immediately gritted his teeth and chased after him. It was a winter night anyway, so he could fly without any scruples!
By the Dragon King Lake, outside the small woods, the white figure suddenly stopped, like a white cloud.
Those who dare to wear white night clothes must be powerful masters!
Lin Erdan ran over, and when he stopped, he was still panting.
The two sides were just like that, ten meters apart, looking at each other.
Lin Erdan was instantly amazed by the other party! This beauty has a great figure! If you gain a point, you will gain weight, if you lose a point, you will lose weight. It is so coordinated and beautiful!
That flawless and pretty face is covered with frost, but it has an aura of a king that makes people surrender.
She stood there quietly, as if she was completely integrated with the surrounding land, lake, and woods. She really looked like a beautiful lady in a painting!
Xue Qingcheng was also looking at Lin Erdan. She opened her red lips lightly and said, "Lin Erdan?"
At this moment, Lin Erdan also understood the identity of the other party: "Xue Qingcheng?"
He called her by his first name, completely treating Xue Qingcheng as an equal.
Xue Qingcheng said: "Lin Erdan, you are very good. I am here to bring up old matters again. Now I need the golden-scaled beast. I heard that you captured it. I hope you can give it to me. How much it costs, just tell me
number."
Lin Erdan shook his head: "I'm sorry, I let it go. If I had known it was so valuable, I wouldn't have let it go."
"Really released?" Xue Qingcheng narrowed her beautiful eyes, "Are you willing to release such a divine creature from heaven and earth? Stop making excuses!"
Lin Erdan spread his hands: "If you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do about it."
