You Are Deep in The Stars

“What are you so happy about?” Han Zhuo knocked on the door and came in.

“It’s Chunchun.” Bai Xi hung up the phone. “By the way, I happened to need you for something.”

“What?” Han Zhuo sat opposite him.

“Who were you calling on the balcony just now?” Bai Xi supported his head with one hand and idly wrote with the other hand.

Han Zhuo laughed: “This… seems to be my privacy?”

“It clearly has something to do with me.” Bai Xi knocked on the table. “I refuse to allow you to have privacy in this matter. Tell me!”

Han Zhuo was initially a little confused, but he quickly came to his senses and said helplessly, “Did Aunt Li tell you?”

“Yeah.” Bai Xi raised his eyebrows proudly. “So don’t try to get away with it.”

Mr. Han was a little dumbfounded.

“Hurry up,” Bai Xi urged.

“Okay, I surrender.” Han Zhuo pulled out the email on his phone and handed it to him. “It’s about this matter.”

“Zhao Xiaojuan… Huang Jingyuan’s wife?” Bai Xi browsed the pictures one by one and said in surprise. “A will?”

“Just looking at this will, you can see that she has some symptoms of depression,” Han Zhuo said. “She also specifically stated that if she ever leaves this world, all her property will belong to her beloved husband, Huang Jingyuan.”

“…Is it love?” Bai Xi returned the phone to him. “But you said before that their relationship is not good.”

“Yes, this is actually a very deliberate will,” Han Zhuo replied.

“Deliberately showing depression and deliberately showing love. If something unfortunate happens in the future, then in the eyes of those who don’t know, Huang Jingyuan must be a loving and family-oriented man, and perhaps they will be full of sympathy for him.”

Bai Xi shook his head. “I don’t understand.”

“Let me tell you,” Han Zhuo said, “This afternoon, Zhao Xiaojuan went to Huang Jingyuan with this will. It was clearly to please him, which is beyond the nature of ordinary couple. She humbles herself to him so much, Huang Jingyuan must have leverage to destroy the people she cares about most.”

“Her parents?” Bai Xi guessed.

Han Zhuo nodded. “As well as the previous tunnel car accident, I checked the surveillance cameras at many intersections and confirmed that there were two vague men in the back row at that time, not just Zhao Yuejin and his wife.”

Bai Xi was a little scared. It was really hard for him to think about it. He wondered what the purpose of the other party deliberately kidnapping him was.

Han Zhuo waved his hand in front of him. “Are you scared?”

“Why can’t you call the police?” Bai Xi asked.

Mr. Han smiled gently and pushed the question away with an innocent look. “You have to ask Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai. I don’t know the reason.”

“I don’t believe it,” Bai Xi leaned back in his chair. “You are obviously on the same side as them.”

“I’m not.” Han Zhuo stood behind him and reached out his hand to pinch his shoulder. “Not even a dime.”

Bai Xi curled his lips and turned on the computer, refusing to talk to Han Zhuo again.

“Want to make your suspense chart again?” Han Zhuo leaned over slightly and looked at the screen together.

Bai Xi typed rapidly. The first-size font had a luminous background and the color of blood. He added a line at the top:

Cunning, unclear, unknown, pretending to be stupid, having no integrity, bodyguard and driver, short and frustrating.

.

Mr. Han asked doubtfully, “Am I short?”

“Sure enough, you only denied the last one.” Bai Xi’s eyes were dark.

Mr. Han: “…”

How could it still be like this?

Half an hour later, Bai Xi yawned and went back to the bedroom to rest. Han Zhuo called Daisy in the garden. He had to endure the cold wind and also be cautious of the mysterious Aunt Li.

“What a cute little thing.” Daisy was soaking in a bathtub filled with rose petals. “So, when do you plan to tell him the whole thing?”

“I have no such plan,” Han Zhuo replied. “I always believe he is just an ordinary human being, not the mutated baby in the hospital.”

“If they were not sure enough, the people in the underground warehouse would not go to great lengths to capture him for experiments. They must have found something.” Daisy closed her eyes. “You actually know, you just don’t want to admit it.”

“I called because I wanted to ask for help on how to appease him.” Han Zhuo glanced at the empty terrace on the second floor. “Not in the middle of the night discussing the underground warehouse.”

“I only know how to coax a lover. As for how to coax an employer,” Daisy yawned. “Sorry, I don’t know at all.”

“Good night, handsome boy,” Daisy chuckled. “Wish you good luck.”

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Mr. Han felt distressed.

Fortunately, Bai Xi didn’t resent him to the point of ignoring him. They went to work together as usual and could chat a few words on the road, but only a few words—they were no longer talking about the kidnapping case, and no more joking and making light banter. Everything seemed unfamiliar and business-like. Han Zhuo felt he was not very adaptable to this atmosphere and didn’t want to adapt.

Even Wang Xiaosen noticed and asked cautiously, “Did you make Brother Bai angry?”

Mr. Han nodded honestly.

“Then you’re in trouble.” Wang Xiaosen patted him on the shoulder. “Brother Bai doesn’t get angry easily, but when he does, the sun and the moon would dim, and the sand and rocks could fly.”

Han Zhuo: “…”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Han.” The secretary happened to come over, knocking on the door. She asked anxiously, “Have you seen Mr. Bai? He is not in the office, and his mobile phone is turned off, but the client has arrived, and there will be a meeting in five minutes.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Han Zhuo had already rushed out of the door.
