Start a mysterious island

"The pearl purchase matter has been finalized. Just wait patiently. What should I do next?"

After Lin Li came out of the restaurant, he stood on the side of the road, looking at the carriages coming and going on the street, as well as a small number of bicycles with single colors and very simple styles, and thought in his heart.

After thinking for a while, he had no idea what to do next. Just as he was about to go back to the villa, a high-end and elegant luxury carriage stopped in front of him.

"Huh?" Lin Li looked at the luxurious carriage in front of him, with a puzzled expression on his face under the gaze of the guards surrounding the carriage.

At this time, the curtains of the carriage were opened, and a pretty face appeared in front of Lin Li.

Zhu Xinru, who has an elegant temperament and a gentle personality, has bright eyes full of surprises.

She looked at Lin Li and lightly opened her red lips, "Mr. Lin, what a coincidence! I met you here."

"Hello, Miss Zhu! Long time no see." Lin Li responded to Zhu Xinru with a smile.

"Mr. Lin, are you waiting for the bus? Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."

Zhu Xinru had nothing to do just now and glanced out of the car window. As a result, she glanced away unconsciously and unexpectedly discovered a familiar figure standing on the street in front of her.

At first, Zhu Xinru thought she had recognized the wrong person. After careful identification, she found that it was indeed the savior.

So she immediately asked her personal maid Chunxiang to tell the driver of the carriage to stop the carriage in front of him.

"Thank you, I'm not waiting for the bus." Lin Li said with a smile.

"That's it! Well, Mr. Lin, do you have anything to do now?" Zhu Xinru asked.

"Not yet." Lin Li had not yet thought about what to do next. Hearing Zhu Xinru's question, he shook his head and said.

Zhu Xinru saw that Lin Li was free now, so she smiled and invited Lin Li, "Mr. Lin, since you have nothing to do now, why don't you come to my house as a guest!"

"this……"

"Didn't we agree last time? When you are free, you will come to my house as a guest, but it has been so long and I haven't seen you... Do you think my home is too shabby, so you don't want to come to my house as a guest? !" Zhu Xinru joked.

"No, the reason why I didn't visit your home is because I was busy some time ago and didn't have time." Lin Li could certainly tell that Zhu Xinru was joking, but he still found a reason to explain.

In fact, Zhu Xinru invited him to her home before, and he had agreed with Zhu Xinru that after finishing the work at hand, he would visit her home when he was free.

Later, due to some things, he accidentally forgot about this incident. It's not that he was really too busy to visit the other party during this period.

Of course, since he didn't visit because he forgot, he couldn't tell Zhu Xinru truthfully about this kind of thing. It would be inappropriate to tell the other party truthfully.

Zhu Xinru smiled slightly, the smile on her face was fresh and refined, beautiful and moving, "Since Mr. Lin, you have time now, don't talk about coming to my house again..."

Lin Li thought for a moment and nodded. Then, Zhu Xinru turned and glanced at Chunxiang, the personal maid beside her. The latter nodded understandingly, then got out of the carriage and invited Lin Li.

"Mr. Lin, please get in the car!"

The guards protecting Zhu Xinru were not the previous guards who knew Lin Li.

When she saw her eldest lady's personal maid inviting the strange man in front of her to get in the car, she naturally knew that she was under the eldest lady's instruction, so she had a look of shock on her face.

These guards who protect Zhu Xinru have been working as guards in the Zhu family for some years. They know the character of their eldest lady. This is the first time they have seen the eldest lady inviting a strange man to ride in their carriage.

Moreover, they also listened to the entire conversation between the two parties just now. It can be said that it is unique for the eldest daughter of her family to invite a man to her home with such enthusiasm.

Lin Li saw the maid Chunxiang inviting him to ride in a carriage. Not to mention that he had already taken a ride with her before. Even without that experience, Lin Li from Blue Star did not feel there was any inconvenience in riding a carriage with someone of the opposite sex. of.

Lin Li, who was invited, nodded and without thinking much, immediately boarded the luxurious carriage in front of him and got into the carriage.

As soon as you enter the car, a light and elegant fragrance hits your face immediately. You don't need to think about where the source of this fragrance comes from.

"Mr. Lin, sit down quickly!" Zhu Xinru, who was sitting on the low couch, saw Lin Li entering the car and immediately smiled and invited Lin Li to sit down at the small table in the car.

After Lin Li sat down, the maid Chunxiang asked the driver to start home.

"drive."

The driver of the car shook the reins in his hand, and he could tell at a glance that it was an expensive breed of horse. He immediately screamed a few times, and then pulled the carriage forward.

"Huh……"

The carriage started to move. At this time, Lin Li was surprised to find that the entire carriage did not feel any bumps at all.

He unfolded his mental perception and immediately discovered that there was an object directly under the carriage that was emitting weak psychic energy fluctuations.

It had been a long time since we had said goodbye to each other in the restaurant last time. This time they met by chance on the street, which made Zhu Xinru very happy to meet Lin Li again.

This can be seen from the unstoppable smile on Zhu Xinru's face. She is obviously in a very good mood.

He reached out and picked up the exquisitely crafted purple clay pot, and personally poured Lin Li a cup of tea made from tea produced in his own tea garden.

Then he picked up the plate of pastries in front of him, made by the family's pastry chef, and placed it in front of Lin Li.

"Mr. Lin, it will be a while before we get to my house. You can have a sip of tea and some snacks!" Zhu Xinru said to Lin Li with a dimple-like smile.

At this time, Lin Li's attention was not on Zhu Xinru.

He was curious in his heart about what was going on with the objects emitting psychic fluctuations under the carriage of the carriage he was sitting on.

After thinking about it, he guessed whether this object that emitted psychic energy fluctuations had the same function as a car's shock absorber, so that when the carriage was traveling quickly, there was no feeling of vibration in the carriage.

"Mr. Lin?" Zhu Xinru shouted when she saw that Lin Li seemed to be in a daze.

"Ah?" Lin Li came back to his senses.

"Drink some tea and have some snacks!" Zhu Xinru repeated what she just said.

Hearing Zhu Xinru greeting him for tea and snacks, Lin Li nodded, then picked up the snack in front of him and took a bite.

This pastry with red bean filling is sweet but not greasy, so delicious... Lin Li took a bite of the pastry, and his eyes suddenly lit up. It is rare to find such a delicious pastry.

"Is this pastry to your taste?" Zhu Xinru noticed the change in Lin Li's expression after eating the pastry and asked with a smile.

"This pastry is very delicious. Where did you buy it? I'll buy some later." Lin Li ate a small piece of pastry in his hand, took a sip of tea, and then asked Zhu Xinru.

"This is made by our pastry chef, and you can't buy it outside." The maid Chunxiang on the side said, explaining for her young lady.

There is also a dedicated pastry chef at home! This Zhu Xinru is really a young lady from a wealthy family.

But think about it, from the first time I met her, when I saw many guards protecting her, and later when the guy who had a crush on her brought his servants to cause trouble, I knew that her family background must be extraordinary.

Lin Li thought about it in his mind, then picked up another piece of pastry and ate it.

"Since Mr. Lin likes this pastry, I will ask the pastry chef at home to prepare more for you later..." Zhu Xinru said with a smile.

"How embarrassing!" Lin Li said politely after swallowing the cake in his mouth.

"Mr. Lin doesn't need to see me outside." Zhu Xinru said, and then she saw the tea in Lin Li's cup bottomed out, so she reached out and picked up the purple clay pot on the table and refilled it for him.

Lin Li was originally a person who was not very good at finding topics to chat with. Now that he had sweet and delicious pastries in front of him, he was even less likely to take the initiative to chat with others.

When Zhu Xinru saw Lin Li eating pastries one after another, she thought that he had not eaten breakfast and was very hungry now, so she did not interrupt the other person's eating, and silently poured tea into Lin Li's cup one cup after another.

The maid Chunxiang sat on the low stool next to her. Her eyes were fixed on Lin Li who was eating cakes for a while, and then on the young lady who transformed into a "tea pourer girl". She, the maid, was currently in a state of having nothing to do.

"Chunxiang." Zhu Xinru saw that the snacks on the table were almost finished, and then turned her head and looked at the maid Chunxiang who was resting her cheeks with her hands, doing nothing, and called out.

Chunxiang nodded with understanding, then took a food box from the carriage, opened it, and took out a plate of pastries from inside.

When Lin Li saw this, he immediately waved his hand and said, "No need to get the pastries, that's enough."

After Chunxiang put the cakes on the table, Zhu Xinru smiled and said to Lin Li, "Mr. Lin, don't be polite to me."

Although the side effects of eating the magical fruit have weakened a lot today, Lin Li's appetite is still much larger than that of ordinary people.

It had been a while since breakfast, and although he wasn't hungry yet, he was still able to eat several plates of pastries in his current state.

Hearing Zhu Xinru tell him not to be polite to her, Lin Li smiled and did not continue driving. He decided to take it easy first.

Zhu Xinru saw Lin Li stop eating. At this time, she asked.

"Mr. Lin, during this period, after you have finished your work, are you planning to leave Dongwu City?"

Lin Li told Zhu Xinru before that he was a traveler who had traveled far and wide. This time he came to Dongcheng and planned to stay for a while. After that, he would go to the next city, so Zhu Xinru asked this question.

Lin Li, who had no plans to leave Dongwu City for the time being and head to the next city, smiled and shook his head when he heard Zhu Xinru's question, "There are no plans to leave Dongwu City at the moment."

"oh"

"Now I have something that needs some time to deal with. Once I finish that matter, I should leave Dongwu City and go to the next city."

"Mr. Lin, can you tell me what's going on? If you need my help, just ask." Zhu Xinru asked.

What I'm talking about is to get rid of the Red Blood Gang. I can't ask you for help in this kind of thing.

And I can do this kind of thing by myself, there is no need to involve other people... Lin Li muttered something in his heart, and then he smiled at Zhu Xinru.

"Thank you for your kindness. This matter can only be handled by myself."

"That's right!" Zhu Xinru nodded. Seeing that Lin Li didn't say what the specific matter was, she knew enough not to ask further questions.

Lin Li thought for a while and decided to change the topic, so he asked Zhu Xinru a question that no one had ever asked her before.

"Miss Zhu, your carriage is very stable while driving.

Since I came to Dongwu City, I have ridden in many carriages, but your carriage does not feel bumpy at all.

I just sensed it and found an object emitting psychic fluctuations under the carriage. Is it because of this object that your carriage has such rare stability? "

"Eh?!!!"

As soon as Lin Li asked this question, not only Zhu Xinru was stunned, but Chunxiang also showed the same expression.

These two people really didn't expect that Lin Li would ask questions about the carriage.

This feeling is like an engineering man who studies computer programming. When he sees an excellent software, he asks his girlfriend who studies classical literature about the software.

"Why would Mr. Lin ask this to the lady? This carriage is so stable, how can we know what's going on?" The maid Chunxiang was in a daze and complained in her heart.

As Zhu Xinru's personal maid, she has met many powerful, powerful, wealthy, and talented young men. Which one of them didn't talk about some romantic topics after meeting Zhu Xinru?

Now Lin Li was chatting about carriages with a beautiful and wealthy young lady. In Chunxiang's opinion, this Mr. Lin was really weird.

Zhu Xinru looked at Lin Li with a curious face and knew that the other party was really asking for advice about carriages, which was a blind spot in her knowledge, so she said a little embarrassed.

"My father asked his friends to customize the carriage specifically for me. I only know that some special materials were used in the production process of this carriage. It can withstand a full blow from a second-level high-level practitioner without being damaged. wreck.

As for the carriage you said was very stable while driving, without any bumps at all, I don't know whether it's because of something at the bottom of the carriage that emits psychic fluctuations.

Because my other carriages seem to have such a smooth effect, I usually don’t pay attention to this issue..."

After listening to Zhu Xinru's story, Lin Li realized in hindsight that he had asked the wrong person this question to a rich lady.
