This idiot!
Master Bai Qi turned his head and stared at him coldly, his eyes filled with disgust and annoyance.
Qiu Chuxing was wrong in the beginning. Was it difficult for Shen Hai to get a girl from an official family? Why did he have to use such low-brow means to touch the daughter of a nerd? How many officials in Fujian had benefited from them and taken their things? Picking one from these people would be easier than kidnapping Chen Chong's daughter!
The only difference is that if you negotiate with others in a nice manner, you will have to pay a considerable price.
But how much trouble can be solved by buying with money? Qiu Chuxing is such a fool, so self-righteous!
He wanted to mercilessly rebuke Qiu Chuxing for his greed and short-sightedness, but the words were on the tip of his tongue, and he swallowed them back again, just snorting: "Master Qiu, you still don't understand how bad things are! Have you ever thought about how the person who was clearly thrown into the dog farm by me could be resurrected from the dead, and why he was brought to Shen Hai by Boss Duan and exposed Shen Yaoniang's affairs? Have you ever thought about why Madam Chen knew that we took Miss Chen to the sea, but still said that the person was in Juhai Manor? "
It is clear that if they go to the sea, the one who will be the most unlucky will be Qiu Chuxing.
But will Qiu Chuxing continue to climb down
No way!
But pointing to Juhai Manor is completely different.
The deep meaning behind this couldn't help but make Mr. Bai Qi feel frightened.
Qiu Chuxing was also stunned for a moment, looking at him in doubt, frowning and pursing his lips: "This, it's not that serious, right? You have always been very well hidden in the capital, and there has been no mistakes made by Qi Yunxi in the past. Who would suspect you? Even if they suspect you, do they know that the person standing behind you is..."
Thinking of this, Qiu Chuxing immediately got goosebumps all over his body, and looked at Bai Qiye in astonishment: "This, is it possible?!"
If someone knew this, it would be like holding their lifeline in their hands.
But as Mr. Bai Qi said, if there wasn't someone behind the scenes who knew everything, how could things have come to this point
Qiu Chuxing could no longer sit still. He stood up anxiously and paced around the room like a trapped beast. He couldn't figure out who was supporting Madam Chen behind the scenes and why they were targeting Juhai Manor. Could it be that they really knew about the young master
But if you knew what the young master said, why didn't you just be more thorough and point it out directly
Seeing that he finally felt scared, Master Bai Qi sneered and looked at him with a half-smile: "Look, we are already on the edge of a cliff. Logically, we should always be cautious in doing anything, but you always rush in for success. Are you scared now?"
What Qiu Chuxing hates most is when others blame him as if they knew it all along. However, since things are indeed a little unexpected now, he is too lazy to argue with Mr. Bai Qi. He just stares at Mr. Bai Qi and asks, "So what do you say, what should we do now?"
Mr. Bai Qi put his hands behind his back, walked to the window and stood still, looking at the vast garden outside. He lowered his eyes and brushed away the branches that were about to extend into the study. He said coldly: "I just hope that Xu Fengqing can block this hole and no longer involve the Southeast's affairs. Otherwise, the life and death of you and me is a small matter. If you implicate the young master, that would be the real death."
Qiu Chuxing fell silent after hearing what he said. After leaving Bai Qiye's house, he gathered his cloak in the night and quickly got into the sedan chair.
The attendant asked him if he was going back to his private residence in Quanzhou. Qiu Chuxing was silent for a moment and shook his head: "Go to the young master."
The house fell silent again. Master Bai Qi exhaled deeply. When he came out of the study and saw Qin Chong coming in, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Godfather, Lord Qiu did not return to his own house, but went to the young master's place." Qin Chong was a little indignant: "After all, the trouble was caused by him and Xu Fengqing, but now that something has happened, they are useless one by one, and you, godfather, have to clean up their mess, Lord Qiu..."
And he's so good at flattering the young master.
Master Bai Qi walked down the stairs without changing his expression: "Let's not talk about this anymore. He can go wherever he wants, as long as he doesn't do anything bad. Have you contacted Boss Ma?"
"Yes!" Qin Chong replied hurriedly: "We have an appointment. We will meet at the dock tonight..."
As he was speaking, Mr. Bai Qi had already turned around to change his clothes, and walked out without stopping.
Boss Ma had been waiting on the boat for a long time.
People like them have always lived on the edge of a knife and are very reluctant to come ashore. Therefore, although it was Master Bai Qi who solemnly invited them this time, Boss Ma still refused to go ashore in the end, and the banquet was held on the boat.
A young and beautiful lady had already been invited to accompany the boat. When Mr. Bai Qi arrived, the charming and seductive lady was singing Qin Louchun. Her voice was light and ethereal, like a yellow oriole singing out of a valley, which made people immersed in the singing. He smiled and applauded, then sat opposite Boss Ma and shouted a praise.
Qin Chong immediately brought over a box filled with several shiny silver ingots.
Boss Ma only took a glance and smiled: "Seventh Master, this is really a big deal."
"What's the big deal? They can make my distinguished guest happy, and that's what they deserve." Master Bai Qi raised his glass, clinked it with Master Bai Qi, raised his head and drank it all, then smiled and said, "Old Ma, I have something to ask of you."
The decoration inside the painting boat was no different from the mansion outside, with bright lights and clinking glasses. Boss Ma leaned back slightly, holding a lady in his arms, and hummed casually, looking at him with raised eyebrows: "Seventh Master has always been a man who never comes to visit without a reason. If you have something to say, you might as well speak directly."
Master Bai Qi was silent for a moment, then raised his head frankly: "Okay, then I'll be frank, Old Ma, I can't hand Xu Fengqing over to you."
The laughter in the cabin stopped and everyone looked towards Master Bai Qi.
The same goes for Boss Ma.
After looking at Master Bai Qi for a long time, Boss Ma asked calmly, "What do you mean?"
Qin Chong's hands were sweating from pinching his fists. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Boss Ma was not angry. He waited nervously for his godfather's reply.
"I won't hide it from you." Master Bai Qi slowly told Madam Chen's complaint from the capital, and looked at Boss Ma's helpless smile: "We are now in a difficult position, and we are in a very passive position. Xu Fengqing, if I hand him over to you at this critical moment, it will not be a good thing for you."
After all, if Xu Fengqing was still colluding with the pirates, the imperial court would probably cause an uproar. In recent years, the imperial court has been very sensitive to the issue of Japanese pirates. If this incident broke out, it would not be a real blow to Shen Hai.
