Although Li Yang was still curious, after all, this person helped him get out of trouble and said he would look after him, so he was considered good or bad.
Turning back to the car, Li Yang wrapped the Longquan Sword in his coat and carried it behind his back.
"What are you carrying?" Lin Qingjun was confused.
"Of course I'm afraid of losing it. This is the last thing left to me by the Li family. I have to keep it well. By the way, why don't you ask who that person was just now?" Li Yang asked.
Lin Qingjun is usually very curious and wants to know about all kinds of strange things, but this time he has no doubts.
Shrugging his shoulders, Lin Qingjun started the car and drove forward with an indifferent expression.
"You must not know each other, and I don't want to be related to any forces in the imperial capital. Can't I just help you find the truth about the Li family back then?"
This answer made Li Yang very satisfied, and he reached out to help Lin Qingjun fasten his seat belt, which was like a scene from a bloody idol drama.
Lin Qingjun's cheeks turned red. She was about to say something, but she didn't expect Li Yang to speak faster.
"Why help me?" Li Yang asked.
"What?"
"Why did I say help me? Investigating the truth about the Li family is my own business after all, but I said before that I wanted to come to the Imperial Capital, but you didn't hesitate at all. Why is that?"
Li Yang couldn't figure out what the relationship between him and Lin Qingjun was now. Through his life in Nanhai during this period, Li Yang actually knew very well that the paper marriage certificate had no effect.
Friends can be considered friends, but they are not that pure. After all, an engagement is an engagement, but the relationship between two people is not a love relationship.
Lin Qingjun shook his head and explained with a smile: "It's nothing actually. I just want to help you. Maybe it's my impulse. In fact, I also know that it is very dangerous."
Li Yang smiled and didn't ask any more questions. Lin Qingjun continued to drive forward.
In the afternoon, Lin Qingjun took Li Yang to play around in various attractions and amusement parks in the imperial capital, and it wasn't until eight o'clock in the evening that the two of them arrived at the hotel.
At Li Yang's strong request, the two of them only opened one room. Although Lin Qingjun didn't know why, he still chose to agree.
When he came to the room, Li Yang took off the Longquan Sword and put it on the table, then turned around and lay down on the sofa to rest.
"You sleep on the sofa?"
Li Yang nodded, hummed and said, "Of course, why don't I sleep with you? This is not your home. I'm worried that I can't help but be impulsive. I'm a masculine young man."
After saying this, Li Yang closed his eyes, while Lin Qingjun raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, lying on the bed to sleep.
The next morning, Lin Qingjun received news that the Lin family's staff were in place and had arrived in the imperial capital. Nie Zixu had arrived with Lin Qingyu.
After looking at Li Yang who was meditating on the sofa, Lin Qingjun slowly walked up to him.
"Li Yang, Li Yang?"
Li Yang didn't open his eyes and nodded slightly: "Go ahead, I'm listening."
"I'm going to look at the location to choose a store later. Do you want to go with me?" Lin Qingjun asked.
"No, I'd better go to the Li family's former residence and see if there are any clues left behind from that time."
As he spoke, Li Yang opened his eyes, stretched out his hand and carried the Longquan Sword on his back.
"Let's go, I'll protect you to find Nie Zixu, he will be safer by your side."
Standing up, the two of them left the hotel and went to find Nie Zixu and Lin Qingyu.
Lin Qingyu was so happy after seeing Li Yang that he grabbed Li Yang's arm and wanted to follow him to the former residence of Li's family.
Li Yang didn't care. After getting Lin Qingjun's consent, the two took a taxi to the Li family villa at No. 8 Guanghua Road, Dongcheng District.
After getting off the car, Li Yang took Lin Qingyu to the door of the Li family villa. A huge plaque hung on the dilapidated door with the word "Li Mansion" written on it.
The courtyard wall, gate, and stone lion at the door were all in tatters, but the plaque on it was spotless.
"Brother-in-law, this is your home?" Lin Qingyu asked curiously.
Li Yang nodded: "I don't know either, but they all agree that this is my home. Of course, it may also be my future home. Come on, let's go in and have a look."
With that said, Li Yang reached out and pushed the door open, making a very harsh creaking sound.
Walking into the gate, Li Yang found that the place was very big. There was a bluestone path dozens of meters long when entering the gate, which was already covered with moss.
Both sides of the stone road are full of weeds and wild flowers, with many butterflies and dragonflies flying back and forth.
Walking along the bluestone road, I passed another gate and saw the true appearance of the Li family villa.
This is a courtyard house. All the houses are decorated with wood, but they have all been burned down.
"It seems that there was a fire here before, brother-in-law, what happened here?"
Li Yang shook his head: "I don't know either. My master said that I was rescued by him before I was sensible. I have no memory of this place. I don't remember this place at all."
The two of them walked further inside and came to the main hall. The three surrounding houses had all collapsed and were obviously turned into ruins. Everything about the Li family seemed to have disappeared.
"Brother-in-law, did you see any footprints when you came in? There seem to be people coming and going here often." Lin Qingyu said curiously.
Li Yang nodded slightly: "I saw it too. After all, this is a ruin. It's normal for people to come in and out."
"That's true, but brother-in-law, have you ever thought about it? This is the imperial capital, and every inch of land is precious. It's very strange that such a large courtyard house has remained the same as it was when it was destroyed for more than 20 years."
Li Yang was stunned when he heard this. He turned around and looked at Lin Qingyu with a slight frown. He didn't expect this.
"Speak carefully about your thoughts."
Lin Qingyu nodded: "Although I don't know the price of the Imperial City, the Li family villa covers an area of at least a thousand square meters. Twenty years ago, the Imperial City was not as prosperous as it is now, but every inch of land was expensive. So why is it so expensive?
Why has no one developed this place? Why should we leave such a ruin?"
Li Yang nodded thoughtfully after hearing this and gave a long hum.
"You're right. This is indeed very strange. Do you mean that someone bought this place? Protected it?" Li Yang asked curiously.
Lin Qingyu shook his head while thinking: "I don't know, but it is definitely not normal. After all, this is the imperial capital. I still think it is unreasonable. If no one buys it, it must have been developed long ago. This land is worth at least five
100 million."
Just as he was talking, a sudden sound of braking came from the direction of the villa door. Li Yang frowned and pulled Lin Qingyu behind him.
"Hide behind me and don't move."
Lin Qingyu nodded obediently, and not long after, a man and a woman walked in from the front door, dressed very gorgeously.
