not in love

Chapter 114 Choice

Lu Yao held the steering wheel steadily, and the speed of the car was always controlled by him at a fixed number.

Facing Lin Xie's questioning, he did not respond immediately, but waited until he passed an intersection smoothly before opening his mouth slowly,

"Master, do you know? Your grandfather saved my grandfather's life back then, and our family has been loyal to the Lin family from generation to generation. The Lin residence is not only a protective umbrella for me, but also a home that I will spend my whole life protecting. Lai When Mrs. Slee arrived, I had been a housekeeper for three years, and you said that I belonged to Lewis, could he have the foresight to do this?"

"Lu Yao, you watched me grow up, so you should also know that I won't speak until I'm not sure about everything. Are you sure you want to continue lying to me?"

Lin Xie sat on the co-pilot as steadily as Mount Tai, calm and indifferent, calmly exuding a sense of oppression that made Lu Yao feel flustered.

"I do not know what you mean."

Lu Yao maintained a gentle smile on his face.

In fact, he should have expected that there would be a day when Lin Xie seemed to have inherited Leslie's romantic and gentle artistic talent, but in fact it all came from Governor Lin's acumen and determination.He was even more scheming and elusive than Governor Lin at that time.

"Who was the one who did it?"

Lin Xie stopped playing around with him,

"The tower opposite the study used to be your room. Before my mother was forced to jump off the building, she saw you who was watching her there. She wanted to tell Tan Chaolu, but unfortunately Tan Chaolu didn't understand. If your role is the witness of death Who is the executor?"

"... Tan Chaolu told you this?"

Lu Yao was silent for a long time, smiled and sighed,

"She didn't dare. Then how did you know that the tower used to be my room? At that time, everyone in the mansion was dismissed and sealed. In order to cover up this matter, I even changed the layout of the mansion."

"It is clearly recorded on the drawings."

Lin Xie lowered his eyelids, the weather that had been sunny for many days suddenly turned cloudy today, and at this moment, the car window was covered with dark clouds, and two dragonflies with broken wings even hit the windshield.

The current Lin family mansion was designed and completed by a very famous Greek craftsman. Like the villa on Wynn Island, the craftsmen used to print and keep a design drawing after completing such a project.

It was also Yu Zhijuan who found the existence of the basement through the drawings and inspired Lin Xie. He was not idle during the few days he was forced to recuperate in the hospital, but Torinxi brought the All drawings of the atlas.

Lu Yao has always been on guard against Tan Chaolu, but he pays little attention to Lin Xi who is still young and doesn't even know who Leslie is.

Through the drawings, Lin Xie discovered that the tower was not used as a decoration or a warehouse when it was built, but as a room for housekeepers.

Several generations of housekeepers have been living in the tower, but Lu Yao has now moved into the villa.

"It seems that when Lin Xi visited you in the hospital a few days ago, she not only gave you a basket of fruit."

Lu Yao raised his eyebrows.

Lin Xie was only so young when Leslie died, and he thought he could easily fool her. He knew that he should have let that person hypnotize and brainwash Lin Xie.

"And the family doctor who treated my mother after she suffered from depression was also introduced by you. I checked the records at that time and found that the person's name and ID number were fake."

Outside the window, there was a patter of raindrops, which fell on the car window and blurred the reflections of the two of them.

"You are loyal to the Lin family, but not every person surnamed Lin, such as my mother, in your eyes, she is not worth mentioning compared with the future development of the entire Lin family, isn't it?"

"Lin Xie, your father confronted me all night like this many years ago."

"But you convinced him that he never traced the cause of my mother's death again."

"That was a thorn buried in his heart. He fell in love with and married a woman he shouldn't have married. He was destined to spend ten years or even his entire life swallowing this thorn,"

Lu Yao chuckled, but couldn't tell whether he was sighing or mocking.

At that time, Governor Lin had already married and established a career. He had parents and Lin Xie, and he had just become the governor not long ago. He seemed to have a bright future, but in fact he was in many shackles.

"He was fascinated by Leslie at the time, so it's not like you can calmly analyze so many things now. Lin Xie, I can tell you what happened back then, but knowing the truth will only make you feel you Father's embarrassment and pain back then."

"I'm curious, what do you think makes me feel pain?"

"Your father had Leslie in his heart back then, and you, don't you also like Yu Zhiyi now?"

Lu Yao glanced lightly at Lin Xie, he could still see his intentions... although Lin Xie might not have thought of hiding it.

Taking people home with such fanfare and taking care of them carefully, not to mention Lu Yao, even Tan Chaolu and Lin Xi can guess his intentions.

Lin Xie raised his eyebrows.

Lu Yao didn't know that Yu Zhiyi was pretending to be Yu Zhijuan, but why did he suddenly mention Yu Zhiyi...?Could it be that Yu Zhiyi's fall from the building was not just because of Zhou Huihui's design, but because he knew something and was silenced?

Seeing that Lin Xie did not deny it, Lu Yao shook his head and sighed that a hero is sad and a beauty passes,

"Back then, Lewis and I were just a cooperative relationship. I didn't need to be loyal to him. What he could give to me, the Lin family could also give to me. What's more, he hadn't inherited the family line at that time...not even now."

"Isn't the old Viscount already dead?"

"Lewis only inherited his property, but he has never been able to get the title. The Gran Scots value this very much. Old aristocrats like them usually have a family heirloom that symbolizes the title passed down from generation to generation, but Lewis did not get it. That heirloom."

Although Lewis is the only son of the old viscount, he has never been valued by the old viscount.Because he has learned to make money by opening casinos and reselling drugs and arms when he was just an adult, this talent does not match the century-old "elegance and romance" that the Harris family has followed, so the old Viscount is more desirable than Lewis. It was actually his other two daughters.

"Although your mother only likes poems, books and oil paintings, in Lewis's view, she is a big threat to compete with him for inheritance. Why do you think she fled to our country at that time? At that time, Lewis had already started assassinating brothers and sisters, Leslie escaped just in time, but it's a pity,"

Lu Yao paused,

"She fell in love with a powerful man. If you were Lewis, would you be afraid to hear that Leslie married the governor of another country?"

"Guns are strictly controlled in China, and the laws are strict. The killers under Lewis cannot easily kill my mother. Coupled with my father's layers of protection, you are the only person my parents have not guarded against."

Lin Xie looked at Lu Yao quietly, the dark gray pupils made Lu Yao feel as if he had fallen to the bottom of the ice - but he was not afraid, Leslie and him had a very brief look at each other when they fell in front of his eyes, at that moment He already felt extreme guilt and anxiety.

"I just chose the path that is most beneficial to the entire Lin family,"

Lu Yao avoided Lin Xie's gaze, and calmed down,

"Your father understood me back then. If Leslie had been allowed to live on, the Harris family, which was in full swing at the time, would have sanctioned the Lin family. At that time, your father's position as governor was not stable. If Leslie hadn't sacrificed In exchange for more than ten years of peace in exchange for Li, do you think the Lin family can develop to what it is today?"

"She was a first wife to you, a first wife to my father, but a unique and irreplaceable mother to me."

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to understand me, I didn't intend to be forgiven by you,"

Lu Yao pressed down the car window, and the cold and black rain slapped his face wantonly like a slap in the face.

Lin Xie's eyes made him see Leslie again, making him feel ashamed and restless.

"At that time, Lewis contacted me and wanted to cooperate with me. I had no choice for the Lin family. In China, his good use of guns and poisons would lead to legal accountability, so he came up with a way to make Leslie look depressed. The ultimate way."

"In the beginning, I was asked to put drugs in Leslie's food, scopolamine, which has a hallucinogenic effect. After taking it for a long time, Leslie really began to suffer from neurasthenia and often had nightmares. So Governor Lin asked me to find the most famous psychological drug for her. Doctors heal..."

"Is this when you introduced the killer arranged by Lewis into the Lin family?"

"That man shouldn't be called a killer,"

Lu Yao laughed at himself,

"I found a well-known psychiatrist according to Governor Lin's request, but he is very famous in Glencoe. After all, you should have seen him too, but by mistake, because Lu Yuan's Careless, you didn't get to meet each other."

At this point, Lin Xie only felt a chill down his spine.

The person who hypnotized Leslie and ordered her to jump off the tall building was actually Yu Zhijuan's mentor, Zhuge Yunbai.

And Lu Yao's next words made Lin Xie's face gradually darker,

"At that time, treating your Ophobia was just a cover. The real purpose of Lewis asking me to arrange you to go to Glensu was to send Zhuge Yunbai to confirm whether to kill you. Fortunately, Zhuge Yunbai came to the conclusion at the beginning I can save your life for the time being."

Because Lu Yuan got the time difference wrong, when Lin Xie arrived in Gransu, it happened that Zhuge Yunbai was out, and the person who received him instead of Zhuge Yunbai was... Yu Zhijuan.

"I can probably guess why Zhuge Yunbai wanted to keep you. Lu Yuan said that you had a good conversation with one of his students at that time, and you couldn't even forget that person for four years...My silly young master, you are in Glensu The person I met was not Yu Zhiyi from China, but his twin brother, Yu Zhijuan."

Lu Yao raised his eyes to quietly observe Lin Xie's expression,

"Yu Zhijuan is Zhuge Yunbai's most important 'love student', and he is the backbone of Lewis's criminal group. You said his twin brother suddenly approached you these days. Why?"

"It doesn't matter whether it's your elder brother or younger brother that makes your heart beat. The important thing is that both of them are likely to belong to Lewis, no different from Mi Chenlu Youyou and others. Now that you are too aggressive, Lewis once again treats you With the intent to kill, after Lu Youyou, who do you think it will be?"

Lu Yao's voice was crushed into splashing mud by the sound of rain whizzing by outside the car window, which made people very upset.

"How about it, Lin Xie? Now it's your turn. How would you choose between your sweetheart and your own life?"
