1044: [Zuri] He came late at night(2/2)
With a knife under the pillow, she felt more at ease.
Sleeping gradually came, and she turned sideways and faced outside the bed.
One hand seemed to be under the pillow, but in fact, I held the knife and gradually fell asleep.
Her nerves were tense, and even when she fell asleep, she could hear the sounds in the yard.
Her heartstrings tightened, her eyes rolled down, and she held her breath and calmed down again.
Just when she thought it was her own hallucination, the window was quietly pushed open, and her ears were raised to hear the sound of footsteps falling to the ground.
Very light, but she was sure she heard it right.
She clasped the knife under the pillow, and she pretended to be still asleep, with a cold sweat behind her back.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, towards the direction of the bed.
Su Limu was full of energy. With his keen intuition, he felt a hand reaching towards him suddenly opened his eyes and stabbed the knife in his hand hard!
However, in the darkness, her wrist was accurately caught by the other party. When she was about to struggle and scream, her mouth was also covered.
At the same time, a familiar voice came in a low voice.
"It's me!"
With just two words, she suddenly took off her guard and loosened the knife in her hand.
Lu Yanbei took his hand back from her mouth and grabbed the falling knife to avoid hurting her.
Zuli gasped, panting, and at the same time relaxed completely.
She almost couldn't help but threw herself into the man's arms and hugged him tightly.
"Are you still holding a fruit knife while sleeping?"
Seeing her relaxed, the man sat down on the edge of the bed and asked in a low voice.
"Um??"
Su Li responded softly, sat up from the quilt, and explained quietly:
"I'm a little scared, holding the knife, and feeling more at ease."
Lu Yanbei is naturally clear about the situation in Su Mansion.
She is a weak woman, but now she has become the pillar of this family.
She was afraid, afraid, and even had to hold the knife in her hand when she went to sleep.
A pain flashed through his heart. He couldn't help but reach out and touch the woman's head, and whispered:
"Don't worry, there are people arranged everywhere outside the mansion, and there will be no danger."
Zu Li was shocked and looked at him: "What did you arrange?"
"Um."
The mind calmed down and the vision was adapted to the light.
When Zu Li saw his deep contours and smelled the breath on his body, his heart became more and more at ease.
"It's so late, why are you secretly coming here for if you don't sleep?"
The room was quiet and panic and fearful, she felt embarrassed and uncomfortable, and looked at him and asked.
Lu Yanbei is also direct, without any roundabout way.
"Your father was buried today. I'm worried about you, so I'll come and take a look. I'm afraid that it will have a bad impact on you during the day."
Su Li felt a little moved in her heart, and she looked up at him, not knowing what to say.
"In addition, I have found some clues about Lu Yanbei."
She was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Did he kill my dad?"
In the darkness, the man's eyes were bright and he stared at her.
"Not sure yet. He now has a new backer and is indeed capable of doing this, but the killer is very clever and has no evidence left. Wei Xun is still investigating."
"A new backer?" Zu Li was puzzled, "He has been ruined, who else is willing to use him?"
"He defected to a Frenchman named Smith, who was quite capable and was not regulated in the territory because of his foreigner's identity."
"So that's how it is?" Su Li understood.
Lu Yanbei was morally corrupt and had a ruined reputation. Now he has no choice but to defect to foreigners as lackeys.
And Lu Yanbei can do something like a traitor.
"It's all my fault? I came back at that time and shouldn't have angered him like that, causing my dad to be retaliated against by him."
When he thought of his father's tragic death, Su Li felt heartbroken and unable to breathe.
Lu Yanbei held her palms tightened slightly, and his tone became heavier.
"This is not your fault, don't blame yourself. Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised. If it was really what Lu Chenjiu did, I will definitely avenge your father."
Zuli looked at him with tears in his eyes.
After a long time, she didn't know what else she could say besides thanking her.
"Thank you, thank you??"
If it weren't for him, just relying on her status as a helpless and weak woman, she would have no choice but to know that Lu Chenjiu was the murderer of her father.
At this moment, she was indeed grateful to this man in her heart.
Lu Yanbei held her hand and saw that her fingertips were cold, so he lifted the quilt and put her hand in.
"Lying down, I'll accompany you, and I'll leave when you fall asleep."
His low magnetic voice came gently, and his heart was even more touching in the quiet night.
Su Li felt very warm in her heart. She slowly lay down, looking at him in the darkness with her eyes fixedly.
After a while, she felt that it was too hard for a man to sit like that, so she moved some seats inside silently.
"You??You lie down too, it's very cold to sit?"
She could only find this reason and finished speaking hesitantly, her cheeks flushed in the darkness.
Fortunately, he shouldn't see it.
Lu Yanbei was a little surprised.
Unexpectedly, this woman who has always avoided him like a snake or a scorpion would one day invite him to lie on the bed.
Men feel that they are a little despicable, and they offer warmth at this time, undoubtedly have the intention of taking advantage of the situation.
But the opportunity was rare and he did not refuse.
So, he lie down in his clothes.
Even the bedding was not lifted.
He just carried her into his arms with the ground.
Su Li didn't expect that he would suddenly hug him, hold his breath for a while, and dare not move.
His breath was right in his ears, calm and hot.
She suddenly felt her whole face getting hot.
Lu Yanbei knew that she was nervous and restrained her from doing anything.
