Chapter 298: Zhu Zhuyun, the King of Brainstorming

~9 min read 1,698 words

Zhu Zhuyun refused in the ring, but then slipped a note behind Davis' back.

This means that it's not that she doesn't want to come, but that she can't come in public.

What was written on the note was probably a place for a private meeting.

Su Bai rubbed the corner of the note in his arms.

Zhu Zhuyun is a woman with much more delicate thoughts than her sister. She must have guessed Su Bai's purpose very well.

And she chose to meet in private instead of falling out in public...

​Interesting.

It seems that in her heart, she has begun to think about another way.

In Su Bai's mind, he pictured Zhu Zhuyun's appearance just now, with his slender figure and that cold and charming face full of complex emotions.

Sisters.

One is cold and hot, the other is mature and enchanting.

Well, I want them all.

……

Back at the station, as soon as Su Bai entered the yard, a figure rushed towards him.

"Dad!"

Bibi Dong, wearing that plain white cotton dress, rushed over like a little rabbit and hugged Su Bai's waist.

"Dong'er has been waiting for a long time! Did dad go to fight? Did he win?"

Su Bai looked down at the beautiful and innocent face in his arms and sighed helplessly.

"Won."

"Great! Dad is the best!" Bibi Dong happily rubbed Su Bai's chest.

Behind them, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu looked at each other.

Although I have seen him several times, Bibi Dong calls Su Bai "Dad". This scene feels outrageous every time I see it.

Ye Xishui walked out from the corridor, holding a plate of snacks in her hand.

"Young master is back? Dong'er is so good. He ate two bowls of porridge and three pieces of cake."

"Dong'er is great!" Bibi Dong raised her head to take credit, waiting for Su Bai to praise her.

Su Bai reached out and rubbed her hair: "Great. Let's go and take you to the back garden to play on the swing."

"Okay!"

Bibi Dong took Su Bai's hand and skipped towards the backyard.

Looking at this scene, Ye Xishui almost spit out the snacks in her mouth.

She moved closer to Ning Rongrong and lowered her voice:

"Your young master is taking a peerless Douluo on the swing. This is the first time I have seen this scene in my two lifetimes."

Ning Rongrong held her forehead speechlessly: "You should say less."

A simple swing hung on the flower stand in the backyard, made by Brigitte from blue and silver grass.

Bibi Dong sat on it, Su Bai pushed gently from behind, Bibi Dong laughed like a silver bell, and her skirt fluttered in the wind.

Ah Yin came over with a pot of tea, stood in the shade of the tree and watched this scene, with the corners of his mouth curled up.

Brigitte was squatting by the flower bed, watering the flowers. She raised her head and murmured in a low voice:

"The way the Lord is pushing up the swing...it looks like that."

Zi Ji leaned against the pillar and snorted coldly:

"What does it look like, hum!"

Bi Ji smiled and patted Zi Ji's arm: "Are you jealous?"

"Am I jealous of her?" Zi Ji flicked her long black hair, turned around and walked away, "It's a joke."

Bi Ji looked at Zi Ji's back, covered her mouth and smiled softly.Time flies.

Bibi Dong was tired from playing, so she took a nap in Su Bai's arms, and was taken back to the room by Ah Yin to coax her to sleep.

Su Bai took advantage of this opportunity and took out the note from his arms.

The paper unfolded.

There is only one line of writing on it, and the handwriting is beautiful and neat.

"Zi Shi, No. 37, Liuhe Lane South."

Su Bai turned the note twice on his fingertips, then put it to the candle and lit it.

The note turned into ashes and dispersed in the wind.

Liuhe Lane.

That is a secluded alley on the edge of Wuhun City.

Zhu Zhuyun was able to find such a hidden courtyard in Wuhun City. It was probably a secret place set up by the Zhu family to handle some matters that were not convenient for public disclosure.

She chose the right time.

That was the time when Davis and everyone in Star Luo Team had fallen asleep.

Su Bai brushed off the paper dust and leaned back on the chair.

Zhu Zhuyun rejected Zhu Zhuqing's offer to stay in public today, then turned around and secretly stuffed a piece of paper with him to meet him in private.

What is this woman afraid of?

Afraid that he would be angry with Zhu Zhuqing because of her rejection? Or do you want to negotiate terms with him privately?

No matter what it is, it means one thing.

Zhu Zhuyun had already acquiesced to Su Bai's strong position, and began to actively seek a solution that would not lead to rupture.

"It's interesting."

Su Bai got up, went to the kitchen to heat up a bowl of sweet soup for Bibi Dong, and brought it to her when she woke up.

After Bibi Dong drank the sweet soup, she pestered Su Bai to tell stories. Su Bai casually made up a story about a unicorn fighting a dragon. Bibi Dong listened with great interest and interrupted seven or eight times to ask "Is unicorn his father?"

Su Bai: "Yes."

"Who is that evil dragon?"

"A bad guy."

"All the bad guys deserve to die!" Bibi Dong clenched her fist, filled with indignation.

Ye Xishui passed by the door and almost choked on her trachea when she heard these words.

……

At night.

The hour is approaching.

Su Bai comforted Bibi Dong. This time he learned a lesson and asked Ah Yin to use the power of life to help Bibi Dong fall into a deep sleep in advance, so as to avoid waking up in the middle of the night to look for "daddy" and not find him.

He changed into dark casual clothes and walked out of the back door of the station.

The night in Wuhun City is not quiet.

During the competition, the streets were full of drunken soul masters and vendors selling late-night snacks. Su Bai walked through the streets and alleys so fast that there was almost no trace left behind.

Liuhe Lane.

No. 37 South.

An inconspicuous small courtyard with green bricks, the door ajar.

Su Bai pushed the door open and went in.

There were no lights in the yard, only the moonlight shone on the stone floor, reflecting a slender silhouette of a woman.

Zhu Zhuyun stood under the old locust tree in the courtyard. She had changed out of her daytime armor and wore a dark purple narrow-sleeved gown with a thin belt around her waist, outlining her mature and plump figure.

Her dark purple hair was scattered on her shoulders, glowing with a cold sheen under the moonlight.

Hearing footsteps, she turned around.

"You're here."

"You made an appointment."

Su Bai closed the courtyard door with his backhand and sat down at the stone table carelessly.

"The note was written very carefully. It seems to be the way of a lady. Does the eldest prince know that you are out?"

Zhu Zhuyun did not answer this question.

She walked over to the stone table and sat down, looking at Su Bai across the table.

After a few seconds of silence, she spoke first.

"Su Bai, what happened today...thank you."

"Thank you for what?"

"Thank you for telling Zhuqing the truth."

Zhu Zhuyun's voice was very low.

"I have never told anyone about what happened back then. I don't know how you found out, but Zhuqing knew that I didn't want to kill her... This is more important to me than anything else."

Su Bai leaned on the back of the chair and crossed his legs: "Don't say any kind words. You ran out in the middle of the night, didn't you just come to say thank you?"

Zhu Zhuyun pursed his lips.

As expected, she was silent for a while before speaking again, much slower than before.

"Su Bai, I have something to ask you."

"Say."

"Zhuqing's life is better than before after following you. I can see that her current state, strength, and spirit are not comparable to those before."

Zhu Zhuyun paused.

"But I can't agree to her today. Hundreds of people from the Zhu family are weighing on my shoulders. If I openly regret my marriage, Davis will not let the Zhu family go."

Su Bai didn't interrupt and waited for her next words.

Zhu Zhuyun stood up, walked around the stone table, and walked to Su Bai.

The moonlight shone on her face, and her green pupils were filled with complex emotions.

"I know what you want."

Su Bai raised his eyebrows.

Zhu Zhuyun took a deep breath,

"You, Su Bai, never do business at a loss. You helped Zhuqing find out the truth and arranged today's game, not because of good intentions. What you want is our sisters."

Su Bai did not deny it.

"You can give Zhuqing everything I can't give. Strength, resources, and protection."

Zhu Zhuyun said word for word,

"But I can't stand beside you openly like Zhuqing."

"So?"

Zhu Zhuyun clenched his fists and dug his nails into his palms.

"So I can only use another way."

She leaned down, placed her hands on the armrests on both sides of Su Bai, and moved closer.

The long dark purple hair hung down and swept over Su Bai's shoulders.

"Su Bai, I can be yours. But only in the dark."

"In front of Davis, in front of the Xingluo royal family, I am still the fiancée of the eldest prince. But in private..."

Her voice was almost inaudible.

"What do you want, I cooperate with them all. As long as you promise me one thing. "

"No matter what happens in the future, don't treat Zhuqing badly because of my refusal in the ring today. "
