I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 762: Virtual and Submissive

Shen Guiling frowned slightly, staring at the thick stack of contracts in front of him, with no intention of taking over.

Shen Nian raised his eyebrows, "What? Are you scared?"

Shen Guiling turned a deaf ear to him and turned to look at Li Ru beside him. "Drag the Shen family into this, and then what? You're going to use this contract to send me to jail?"

This was a mentality that suited Shen Guiling's revenge. If he had been planning to destroy himself and Shen Qian, why would he have spent three years lurking in Shen Garden? Shen Guiling had entered the game with the intention of destroying Shen Qian at the lowest possible cost.

Li Ru's last bit of defense finally dropped completely, and he stood up with the help of a cane. "Don't worry, since I want to prove your identity as a traitor, I will naturally arrange an identity for you in Country S. As long as you pull the Shen family down from the altar, Country S will not treat you unfairly. When the time comes, I will apply for national protection from the Queen, and the laws of Country A will not be able to punish you."

"You can still join the army. Talented people will be treated preferentially wherever they go."

Shen Guiling, "So it is, it is indeed a bright future."

"Of course." Li Ru said with a good-natured look, "Sign it. As long as you cooperate, I promise that your future life will not be worse than in Shen Garden."

Shen Guiling's gaze fell back on the contract in front of him. Just as he was about to reach out his hand, he suddenly thought of something and retracted his hand.

Shen Nian sneered, "Shen Guiling, we've already come to this point. It would be rude to ask one more question."

Shen Guiling glanced at him and did not respond immediately. She turned and walked slowly towards the mahogany desk, and casually pulled out a tissue with her slender fingers.

"Excuse me. I heard that brain disease is contagious, so I have to be careful." After saying that, he wrapped his fingertips with a tissue seriously, and then took the contract from Shen Nian's hand, as if it was stained with some disgusting filth.

The smile on Shen Nian's lips froze instantly, and he resisted the urge to go forward and beat someone up.

Li Ru didn't care about this little fight and stared at Shen Guiling's movements without blinking.

Shen Guiling picked up the pen on the table, unscrewed the cap, and was about to start writing when he suddenly thought of something. He turned back to the first page and carefully examined the contract.

Shen Che couldn't bear it any longer and frowned, "What are you dawdling about?"

Shen Guiling didn't even raise her eyelids, scanning the terms and conditions at a glance, and replied, "This is my indenture, so of course I have to be careful. If you don't care about me in the future, I know how to defend myself."

"..." Shen Che looked at Li Ru, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he turned his head away with a gloomy face.

The secret room was extremely quiet, with only the subtle rustling sound of pages being turned.

"bell--"

At this moment, a shrill telephone ring suddenly rang in the room.

The young man next to Li Ru glanced at Shen Guiling, and seeing that he was not affected at all and only had the contract in his eyes, he walked around the sofa and answered the phone with confidence.

I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone. The young man's face changed slightly. He covered the receiver and turned to look at Li Ru.

"Old man, Bai Mi and his men broke in."

Bai Mi? !

Hearing this, the other three were stunned.

Li Ru was the calmest among them. "Shouldn't he be participating in the hunt right now? What is he doing here?"

The young man shook his head. "The housekeeper said that he not only brought people with him, but also brought guns. He asked to see Shen Nian by name. It seems that he came with bad intentions!"

"Bai Mi wants to see me?" Shen Nian raised his eyebrows. He had never had any intersection with this Prince Bai Mi.

Li Ru glanced at Shen Guiling, pondered for a moment, and said calmly, "Go out and hold him back first."

"..."

Shen Nian was almost pissed off and laughed. Was he going out to hold him back? Hadn't he heard that the other party had bad intentions? But this was Li Ru's territory after all, so even if he was dissatisfied, he could only endure it temporarily.

He looked back at Shen Guiling, snorted coldly, and walked out of the secret room.

Li Ru's patience had already run out. If Bai Mi discovered that he was plotting this, it would affect his future plans. With this in mind, he looked at Shen Guiling with a deeper look in his eyes. "Have you finished reading this?"

Shen Guiling read quickly, finishing a densely packed page in thirty seconds and reading over two hundred clauses in less than five minutes. He nodded, picked up his pen again, and scribbled his name fluently.

Li Ru originally thought that he was going to play tricks, but when he saw him write so fluently, he immediately felt relieved.

"Awaited."

Shen Guiling handed the signed document to Li Ru. Li Ru glanced at the signature, confirmed it was correct, and was about to take it over when the phone rang again. At the same time, Shen Guiling suddenly thought of something, took back the contract, and blew a few breaths on the ink where the signature was.

The young man answered the phone, paused for a few seconds, and looked extremely embarrassed. "Grandpa, Bai Mi kicked Young Master Shen into the swimming pool. He wants to see you now."

Li Ru was distracted by this and angrily said, "What a bastard! Even if his mother came, he wouldn't dare to act so wildly in the Li family. What right does he have?"

"Okay." Shen Guiling closed the document and threw the contract on the desk.

The young man listened to the shouting on the phone, his face extremely grim. "Grandpa, Bai Mi is shouting in the main hall, cursing very badly."

Li Ru was naturally suspicious, so he couldn't help but think too much at this moment.

The Li family, a hereditary noble family that existed since the early days of the S Dynasty, is the only established aristocracy capable of rivaling the Bai royal family. If it weren't for their ancestors' unfortunate circumstances, the throne would have belonged to the Li family. The queen is aging, and to consolidate the Bai family's power, she has supported many emerging powerful families in recent years. How dare Bai Mi dare to come to his territory and cause trouble? Could it be that the eldest princess is backing him?

"All of you go out first."

The young man immediately hung up the phone and led Shen Che and Shen Guiling out of the secret room. As they closed the door, Shen Guiling glanced behind the crack as if unintentionally, and saw Li Ru picking up the contract and heading towards the bookcase, then he followed Shen Che's steps as if nothing had happened.

Shen Che looked at the handsome and aggressive Shen Guiling beside him with a complicated expression, "Did Bai Mi really kill Aze?"

Shen Guiling's expression was indifferent. "Shen Yize wasn't exposed at the time. If one of me and Jiang Huashan had taken action, do you think we could have survived given the old man's temperament?"

Shen Che was originally a little suspicious, but after hearing these words, the doubts in his heart disappeared in an instant.

Even though he did not approve of what Shen Zhuang did, there was one thing he firmly believed in, or rather, everyone who grew up in Shen Garden firmly believed in it.

——That is, the old man will never tolerate any member of the Shen family who murders their brothers and sisters.

He is the best example.

Li Ru's manor is a gray fortress built by time and power, completely isolated from the outside world by towering white walls and lush greenery. The only entrance is a nondescript ebony door, where a stern-looking plainclothes bodyguard, whispering into a microphone, stands guard 24 hours a day.

At this moment, the ebony door that symbolized being unattainable was swaying in the breeze, and a group of groaning bodyguards were lying on the ground.

In the luxurious Zen-style main hall, Shen Nian lay dying on the priceless tiger-skin carpet.

Bai Mi half-knelt on the cool Italian gray marble, staring at the severed finger on the ground, lost in deep thought.

This thing is so ugly, it shouldn’t belong to Shen Guiling, right?
