The black cloak was easily undone, and it obediently slid down to Bai Lixin’s feet, revealing the coarse mourning attire he was wearing.

His arms were raised high, and Bai Lixin stared at the silhouette of the beast like man in front him.

He was still wearing a military uniform, and Bai Lixin could feel the cold touch of the leather straps and metal buttons as they rubbed against his skin.

Bai Lixin was easily pressed against the wall with one hand. Half of his poured down, while the other half was held up by the man as he carefully sniffed it.

“The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus.” The man put the soft black hair to the tip of his nose. “ Little mother likes to bathe with osmanthus?”

The warm breath came from between the lips and Bai Xin subconsciously licked the corner of his lips. He slightly turned his head away, his eyes already misty as he tried to avoid the man’s manic breathing.

When he didn’t get an answer, the other party was not discouraged, he just let the silky black hair down, and caressed Bai Lixin’s waist in the direction the it fell.

The hand rubbed the waistline through the fabric but it felt as if nothing was there.

The hand continued sliding down and with little effort, hooked one leg up.

Bai Lixin suddenly froze, and his eyes had astonishment as he looked at the man before him. Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, he suddenly struggled for a few moments.

However, his strength seemed insignificant in the eyes of the other man, with only a little force, he easily held Bai Lixin in place.

“Mom seems to be afraid of pain.” The hand holding the back of his knee slightly, and Bai Lixin couldn’t stop the tears from falling, they fell down like pearls with broken threads.

Through the cover of the darkness, Dijia’s dark eyes stared at the tearful beauty in front of him.

He put down Bai Lixin’s leg and chuckled before patting Bai Lixin’s back soothingly.

“Why are you still crying? Look at me, am a rough man and forgot that you were born delicate and must be treated gently.” Dijia gently stroked Bai Lixin’s earlobe with his lips and said in a low murmur, “Will you forgive me, little mother?”

The warm breath fell on the earlobe, and Bai Xin suddenly felt a wave of heat spread from the earlobe and then through his whole body.

He choked and looked at Dijia helplessly.

His hand squeezed Dijia’s wrist and twisted it hard.

Dijia raised his eyebrows, and chuckled. He simply rolled up the sleeve of his uniform and brought his wrist to Bai Xin’s mouth.

“Little mother wants to vent his anger? I’ll give you a bite, okay? You can bite until your anger subsides.”

Without saying a word, Bai Lixin grabbed the hand that Dijia had given him and bit down.

The watery eyes covered in mist squinted at Dijia. Unfortunately, the watery eyes mixed with innocence were not deterrent at all, but were rather like a lover’s shy flirtation.

There was a slight pain from the bitten wrist, and it tingled with some moistness.

The look in Dijia’s darkening eyes deepened, and the corners of the mouth hidden in the darkness couldn’t stop raising.

So cute.

While crying and biting, the tears continued falling and he couldn’t exert any force.

If it weren’t for these conditions, he would have killed Dijia by now.

Bai Lixin took another bite, but he couldn’t bite off any meat. So he simply threw the arm away, quickly wiped away the tears, and raised his head: “I want to go back.

The voice had a low sob, soft like a small milk cat.

Dijia’s voice contained a smile: “I’m already here, you want me to go before making any investigation?”

At the end, he added: “I mean, accompany me in my investigation.”

Bai Lixin: “……”

I have to say, good idea.

Bai Lixin walked to the bed, and he heard Dijia’s voice from behind, “Next time I see you take off your cheongsam, the punishment will not be as simple as today. Guess what I will punish you with?”

“How about stick punishment?”

Bai Lixin suddenly stiffened, and the hand that was about to pull out something from under the bed trembled slightly.

What…what stick?

This dog man!

The crisp sound of leather shoes on the ground approached him, and in the next moment, Bai Lixin’s back was covered by a hot broad chest, “Does little mother prefer a wooden stick or an electric stick?”

Bai Lixin was angry, he immediately turned around, and seriously measured Dijia with his eyes.

He finally lowered his eyes and fixed them at a certain point, opened his mouth with tongue against the jaw, and silently mouthed a word.

Dijia was stunned. By the time he came out of his daze, Bai Lixin had already turned back to reach under the bed, and was pulling out a wooden box.

The moonlight slowly spilled in from the window and fell on to Bai Lixin’s body.

The beautiful curve of the neck was bent because of his head Was lowered, the green silk hang down from the sides, and the exposed back of the neck illuminated the color of the moonlight.

Looking at the other party’s busy figure, Dijia calmed down, came up to Bai Lixin’s ear and recited a word, then he asked in a low voice: “Is that what you just said?”

Bai Lixin coughed lightly, and pretended not to hear him.

Dijia chuckled and lazily spat out, “Pretending to be reserved.”

S419M: [Tsk, tsk, tsk, hey, you two annoying little goblins. You understand his scheming, he understands your pretense of being reserved. The two of you should just get married on spot, why are you still talking about love?]

[The Lord God is your true and legal husband, but he had to kill himself and get the “widower”. If it were in the past, it would have been child’s work for him to do whatever could be done and shouldn’t be done. But now, he doesn’t even dare give a small kiss on the cheek, only uses verbal bravado to play a rogue. He deserves to go through this trouble.]

The escape system agreed: [You said it, he deserves it.]

Bai Lixin: [……]

You two should go and cool down.

Bai Lixin lowered his head and opened the box.

The box was empty.

But he made a little harvest.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, Bai Lixin found a few soft and fine hairs in the corner of the box.

Red was mixed with black, and it looked like the hair from an animal.

Bai Lixin picked a few and observed them under the moonlight.

Dijia leaned over: “It looks like fox fur.”

Fox fur?

Could it be a fox demon that came to claim life?

But Lord Li pretended to beg for mercy, and what was that thing he held out?

He didn’t look like he was holding “fur” earlier, it was more like he was holding out a talisman.

Bai Lixin frowned slightly, put the fox fur back into the box and then slowly closed it.

The late moonlight was now shining into the room clearly.

The things in the room were neatly arranged. Like the study next door, this room’s décor was also extremely extravagant and luxurious.

Bai Lixin walked around the bedroom.

The second concubine said that Lord Li was obsessed with Taoism, but his quaters didn’t have a trace of Taoism except for the portrait facing the door.

There was a woman with kind eyes in the portrait. She was wearing a white Taoist robe, with a smile at the corners of her mouth and compassion in her eyes.

Behind the Taoist was a mountain and river. If you look at the mountain forest carefully, you could vaguely see the mountain foxes hidden in the white snow.

The mountain foxes were of different sizes and colors, and all had their heads turned to the side.

The Taoist was holding some floating dust, and the dust was floating in the direction of the foxes.

This painting looked out of place here.

The two rooms were filled with countless treasures so it could be seen that Lord Li loved wealth.

And since he is was obsessed with Taoism, he should care about *Feng Shui.

A big river flowing inward meant great wealth, but the river in this painting was flowing to the outside, which meant the leakage of wealth.

Besides, someone as sophisticated as Lord Li would not hang a portrait at a place which he enters and leaves through, even ordinary people wouldn’t display it like that.

But then looking at this room, there wasn’t a single appropriate place for the portrait.

Could it be that this painting was just hung here?

Speaking of which, wasn’t there a painting missing from the study next door?

Could it be this one?

Bai Lixin approached the painting, and opened it. The color on the canvas was clean and bright, so it didn’t look like an aged painting.

He touched the frosted ink of the canvas and it stuck to his fingers. Bai Lixin tilted his head, he could smell the special fragrance of the ink.

Dijia came closer and also reached out to touch the canvas: “This painting is new.”

It was new indeed, so new that the ink was not yet dry.

Bai Lixin stood on tiptoe, ready to take the painting down.

A broad hand suddenly came from behind him and hooked the top, gently picking the scroll up and handing it to Bai Lixin.

Dijia: “Why are you so interested in this painting?”

Bai Lixin picked up the side of the scroll: “Have you visited the study next door?”

Dijia: “No, I directly came here.”

Bai Lixin raised his eyebrows and glanced at Dijia: “Then what are you doing here?”

Dijia: “Investigating the truth about the death of Lord Li. The Li family members are not telling the truth, and I can’t ask anything in person.”

“This afternoon, the family kept talky nonsense, and simply couldn’t get to the point. It looks like they were trying to cover up something.”

Bai Lixin: “Speaking of, do you have a bad relationship with the Li family? I heard that you left five years ago.”
