The morning sun was a bit fresh. Qi Baye stood in the Gu family courtyard. The door was not opened. He lowered his head and could not see his face.
Not long after, Gu Si came out and whispered: "Eighth Master, please don't embarrass me. The Seventh Master has told me that I won't see you for the past few days."
No one knows why Mr. Qi Ba came here. It is not a matter of the Zhou family, but it is still a matter of no matter what. Although it seems that he wants to kidnap Miss Tang, it has nothing to do with them. But they were all blackmailed, and they clearly didn't take them seriously.
In a world like this, there is no single thing. If they don't do something and are slapped in the face like this, they won't be able to survive in the future and will be embarrassed. No matter who it is, the mastermind behind this cannot be let go.
Gu Si understands this truth, and Qi Baye understands it better, but he has to come.
"My aunt can't afford to kneel in front of my parents, so I have to come. Even if Brother Qi doesn't see me, I'll stand here. It's always better than going home."
He didn't know in his heart whether Zhou Yuxuan was blinded by lard and dared to have such a huge appetite. He has no sympathy for Zhou Yuxuan. If he attacks Brother Qi like this today, he may not attack him in the future.
He was extremely clear in his heart, but after being clear, he should have his own attitude.
Qi Baye waved his hand: "You go back and rest, don't worry about me. I just mean it. In fact, I don't really want to plead for him."
After these words, Gu Si was silent for a moment. It was not good to leave people here like this. Regardless of whether it was Master Ba who was retreating in order to advance, he just said: "Master Ba, why don't we have a chat together?"
Qi Baye raised his eyebrows and refused directly: "No."
Gu Si: "..."
Master Qi Ba waved his hand: "Go in, I know what's going on, I won't embarrass you. Brother Qi doesn't have to hide from me."
Gu Si said seriously: "I'm not afraid of you asking for mercy, it's just..." After a pause, Gu Si said: "It's just that Master Qi gives you a step down, otherwise it will be difficult for you to go home."
Qi Ba raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I understand."
Gu Si saw that Mr. Qi Ba was also a sensible person, so he didn't say anything more. He just nodded slightly, then turned around and walked in. Just when he was about to enter, Qi Baye suddenly said: "Does Shanshan know about the Zhou family's affairs?"
Gu Si paused and said, "I don't know about this."
They couldn't guess whether Miss Tang would say it.
Gu Si kindly advised: "But I don't recommend that Mr. Ba find Miss Zhou or Miss Tang. Miss Tang..." He thought about how to describe it and said, "It may not be as much love as you think."
Qi Baye sweated silently. He didn't know what kind of person Tang Jiao was! When I beat Tang Zhenzhen, I didn't see her being merciful. She was a very cruel girl. She can play with Zhou Shanshan, it's like birds of a feather flock together.
"I know." He said with great concern.
Gu Si raised his eyebrows, no matter what, it’s good that Master Ba knows.
"Seventh Master treats Miss Tang differently, and Eighth Master is still... you understand, right?" People can be jealous.
Master Qi Ba nodded. Seeing that he really understood everything, Gu Si finally felt relieved and went back to the house.
Qi Baye stood in the yard for a while, and seemed to hear voices. He followed the sound and went out, and saw Shen Lianyi going out with a small bag. The man following her was tall and burly, with a very soft complexion.
Shen Lianyi was thinking: "Brother, you don't have to accompany me. I'm just going to buy some soy milk and fried dough sticks. What will happen? You always think too much."
Shen Qing smiled: "It's okay."
The brother and sister were walking down and saw Qi Baye standing on the roadside.
Shen Qing frowned, not really wanting to see this person.
Master Qi Ba smiled and nodded, seeing that his face was not very good, he thought that he was right, if his cousin wanted to kidnap Tang Jiao, it would be very difficult for them to give him a good look. This is not surprising at all.
He suppressed his smile and said, "Mr. Shen, Ms. Shen. So early."
Shen Qing has really never had any contact with Qi Baye, and he doesn't have a good impression of him. A sudden greeting from such a person will always give people the impression of being a traitor or a thief. But he was also polite and nodded: "Good morning."
Qi Baye's eyes fell on Shen Lianyi. She was wearing an exquisite lake blue cheongsam and she was very elegant. He had seen Shen Lianyi's interview and she was quite decent. It's nothing like her daughter, which is surprising when you think about it.
Shen Lianyi pursed her lips and whispered: "Brother, let's go."
Qi Baye's gaze made people feel a little uncomfortable, but she was not used to others looking at her like this. Shen Qing felt the same way. Although it didn't necessarily mean that she had any bad thoughts, it was somewhat uncomfortable for him to look at his sister like this.
Shen Qing: "Farewell."
Looking at the backs of the two of them, Qi Baye leaned against the wall. For some reason, he felt more and more recently that Shen Lianyi was a beauty, and he just happened to like the kind of gentleness. Naturally, Shen Lianyi was more than ten years older than him, so he couldn't have anything to do with her, but he couldn't help but want to look at her more.
A motorcycle came quickly, and two people jumped out of the car. They respectfully came to Master Qi Ba and said, "Master Qi."
Qi Baye lazily leaned against the wall and asked, "What's the matter?"
"My wife has fainted. Please come home."
Qi Baye scratched his head, "Why is this such a big deal?"
He only thought about it briefly and guessed that it might be a trump card to force him to help, but he was not sure if it was true, so he had no choice but to throw himself into a trap and go back.
He picked up a piece of grass, held it in his mouth, and cursed: "They are so naive! They don't even think about what Zhou Yuxuan did. The idea was all about Brother Qi, how can he still expect others to leave him a way out? He wanted to Why didn't Seventh Brother think about me when he took action? Have you ever thought about giving me face? "
After enough scolding, he said, "Let's go back."
Qi Baye quickly returned to Qi's house. As soon as he entered the living room, he saw his father sitting in the living room. Qi Baye said hello: "Dad, how is mom?"
Master Qi raised his head and glanced at Master Qi Ba, and said: "She is confused, you can't be confused."
With just such a word, he immediately turned around and entered the study. Qi Baye knew something immediately. When he entered Mrs. Qi's room, he saw her lying there, looking uncomfortable. Sitting next to her was his aunt.
Qi Baye laughed: "Mom, you've gone too far."
Mrs. Qi's eyes widened angrily, she slapped her chest and said, "You bastard, you little bastard, you said that..."
"Mom!" Qi Baye suddenly interrupted her and stopped smiling.
He wiped his face and said: "This matter is not just about the little girl from the Tang family. It is about embarrassing us. Do you understand? You should understand that the Lu family boat company is now the seventh brother. Yes. Whether it's me or Sixth Brother, almost everyone of us has a stake in it. I said this, do you understand? I warned him not to make bad ideas, and he gave me ideas last time, but did he listen? Now this result is almost something he brought upon himself."
Mr. Qi Ba was too lazy to tangle with the female relatives at home: "Aunt, I know you feel sorry for your son, but he is not a child, and no one will deal with the consequences for him. And, this time..." Mr. Qi Ba's face turned a little colder: "He He didn’t give me face either, I can’t repay kindness with evil.”
Turning around and leaving, Mrs. Zhou suddenly grabbed her nephew's sleeve: "I know, I know Yuxuan was wrong, but it didn't cause any bad impact, right? Isn't she a good person? I can... "
"Auntie!" Mr. Qi Ba laughed and looked at Mrs. Zhou: "Why are you so naive! The point of the matter is not the little girl from the Tang family, but... Zhou Yuxuan wanted to take food from us, and he did it in an extremely despicable way. Means. If you can do this to Brother Qi today, will you be able to kidnap my mother and deal with me in the future? "
Letting go of Mrs. Zhou, he said seriously: "It's useless for you to waste time here. I will definitely not help. And to be honest, I can't help even if I want to. Brother Qi won't see me at all."
Mrs. Zhou sat down dejectedly. Her son's legs had been broken. He didn't know how many problems he would have in the future. Mr. Gu Qi refused to see them at all. As for Master Qi Ba... If he refuses to help, then she doesn't even know what their family will be like in the next step.
"I don't ask for anything else, I just ask you to spare his life, that's all I ask for." Mrs. Zhou murmured.
Qi Baye said seriously: "Then don't worry, I will definitely do it. Seventh Brother believes in Buddhism and does not kill any living being."
Mrs. Zhou was like a big stone falling to the ground. She leaned weakly on the foot of the bed and whispered: "It's good for people to be alive. Shanshan, it's a good thing that Shanshan is not at home, it's a good thing that she is not here..." "
Qi Baye raised his eyebrows, pursed his lips, and finally turned around and left without saying anything.
At this time, Zhou Shanshan was sitting in the living room and sneezing constantly. She rubbed her face and muttered: "I don't know who is talking about me."
Tang Jiao came downstairs, her long hair draped over her shoulders and her face a little pale.
Zhou Shanshan turned around and saw her, and immediately asked: "Why do you look so bad!"
She vaguely heard her going out early in the morning, and she said again: "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Tang Jiao shook her head and looked at the time. It was less than ten o'clock.
She whispered: "Can't sleep."
She nestled on the sofa. Zhou Shanshan said, "Aunt Shen has prepared breakfast in the restaurant. You can have some. A kid named Yang Xiuyan came just now. He has a fever. Aunt Shen was worried and took him to the hospital."
Tang Jiao asked, "How is he?"
Zhou Shanshan: "She must be seriously ill. I'm sorry."
Tang Jiao: "Okay, I understand."
She didn't move, thought for a moment, and said, "Shanshan."
Zhou Shanshan sighed and asked, "You want an apple? I'll peel one for you."
She reached for the apple, but Tang Jiao stopped her and said, "No, actually Tang Heng was rescued last night."
When Zhou Shanshan heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "Have you caught the bad guy? If you really do catch him, you must not let him go. His heart is really vicious."
Zhou Shanshan waved her fists in anger and talked for a long time. Seeing her like this, Tang Jiao's eyes flashed and her voice became softer: "It's Zhou Yuxuan."
Zhou Shanshan is fighting against that bad guy! Confused by the sudden four words, she hesitated and stammered: "W-what did you say?"
Tang Jiao said seriously: "Your brother did it."
After saying that, she didn't say anything else and just got up and went upstairs. There is no point in saying more at this time, Zhou Shanshan can only feel it for herself. She left space to Zhou Shanshan, but Zhou Shanshan never expected that things would be like this.
After reacting for a while, she rushed upstairs without even thinking, banging on Tang Jiao's door. Tang Jiao opened the door and saw that her eyes were red, but she was still very strong. I didn’t cry.
She asked: "Where is my brother now?"
Tang Jiao shook her head: "I don't know, he should be at home, right? Of course I won't care about the person who tries to kidnap me. Although you may not like what I say, but in fact, I will only applaud him if he dies."
Zhou Shanshan bit her lip. She understood Tang Jiao's mood, but it was still uncomfortable.
She thought for a while and said seriously: "Tang Jiao, since something happened to my family, I can't stay with you. Thank you for taking care of me these days. I really..." Biting her lip, she said, "I really I'm very sorry, I didn't expect my brother to do such a thing, I'm really sorry for you."
She bowed deeply.
Tang Jiao took her arm and said softly: "He is him, and you are you."
Tang Jiao said seriously: "As long as you treat me as a friend, I will treat you as a close friend."
She meant what she meant, and everything was mutual. If Zhou Shanshan wanted to resent her because of this incident, there was nothing she could do. She was just a little sad about losing a friend. But it’s not that sad. After all, many things happen for a reason.
Zhou Shanshan was not a stupid girl. She nodded seriously: "I know."
She hugged Tang Jiao and whispered, "No matter what happens, you will be my best friend."
