Although Zhou Shaojin has lived two lives, he has never seen such a scoundrel.
She held onto Nanny Shang's sleeve tightly and said nothing.
Xiao Zhenhai became more and more frivolous, and said with a smile: "My beauty, if you can't bear to part with your private money, why don't you let me hide in your box and take me to the capital? When we get to the capital, I will immediately give you a big house, and you can sell it or exchange it for your private money, or keep it as a dowry..."
Zhou Shaojin couldn't hear a word he said and looked at him nervously, afraid that he would run over and grab him.
Xiao Zhenhai found it interesting and wanted to tease her again, but a voice as cold as ice rang out in the room: "I didn't know you had a big house under your name. I don't know where it is? I'm looking for a house to house my servants. Why don't you give it to me?"
Everyone in the room followed the sound.
I don’t know when Cheng Chi walked in.
He was dressed in tight clothes, and his figure was tall and straight as a pine tree. In his hand he held an iron bow about three feet long, and on his waist hung a quiver filled with white-feathered arrows. His expression was stern and cold.
A few steps away, Huaishan followed with his hands clasped in his sleeves and his eyelids slightly closed.
Zhou Shaojin was stunned.
Uncle Chi, what is this outfit
Nanny Shang looked delighted.
If the Fourth Master couldn't come and Xiao Zhenhai continued to harass the Second Miss, she would have no choice but to fight to the death with Xiao Zhenhai.
However, doing so would probably alert the Zhou family and cause a lot of trouble for the Fourth Master.
Now that the Fourth Master has arrived, the Xiao guy is already trapped in a jar and there is nothing to be afraid of.
She retreated behind Zhou Shaojin.
Xiao Zhenhai's eyes almost popped out, and he looked at Cheng Chi with his hair standing on end, like a cat that saw its natural enemy, and stammered, "You, how did you find yourself here?"
Cheng Chi said nothing and looked at Zhou Shaojin.
There was a coldness in those eyes, no emotion could be seen.
Why does Uncle Chi look at her like that
Zhou Shaojin's eyes suddenly became moist and he called out "Uncle Chi" aggrievedly.
"What?" Xiao Zhenhai's eyes widened, and he looked at Cheng Chi in shock, then at Zhou Shaojin, and said, "Uncle, uncle? Cheng Si is your uncle? In other words, he is the brother-in-law of Baoding prefect Zhou Dacheng? How is this possible..."
Cheng Chi sneered.
Xiao Zhen jumped up: "I know, I know, Cheng Si, you are a descendant of the Cheng family in Jiuru Lane, Jinling! No wonder, no wonder! I have met you four times near Jinling City! Your ancestor is the one who founded the Seven Stars Hall. That's why, although you are so young, people in the southern martial arts world respect you as 'Fourth Master'... That's why the Seven Stars Hall has an official background... That's why all these years, those martial arts families have not dared to mess with you, letting you do whatever you want..." As he said this, he turned over and wanted to jump out of the window.
Zhou Shaojin only felt a flash before his eyes and heard the sound of tearing cloth in his ears. Xiao Zhenhai was shot through the left shoulder by a white feather arrow like a butterfly and was fixed on the window frame.
"The meteor arrow of Fourth Master Cheng of Qixing Hall is indeed worthy of its reputation!" After Xiao Zhenhai glanced at the white feather arrow on his shoulder, his gaze fell straight on Cheng Chi's face. His eyes were sinister, as if he wanted to engrave Cheng Chi's appearance into his bones and retaliate with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. There was no trace of his previous frivolity and recklessness anymore, like a tiger in the mountains, suddenly showing its cruel and ferocious side.
Zhou Shaojin turned pale with fright.
"Uncle Chi!" She rushed towards Cheng Chi.
It seemed as if this could help him block Xiao Zhenhai's malicious intentions.
Cheng Chi hugged Zhou Shaojin without hesitation with the hand that was not holding the bow.
"Don't be afraid!" He looked at Xiao Zhenhai with a cold expression, as if nothing could shake his decision, but he whispered to Zhou Shaojin gently, "With me here, he can't hurt you. Be good and listen to me, go to Huaishan."
However, after just a few words, Zhou Shaojin felt his murderous intent.
She couldn't help but tremble and said: "Uncle Chi, he, he didn't hurt me just now..."
If you can spare Xiao Zhenhai, then spare him.
If she couldn't forgive him, she would just pretend she saw nothing.
Zhou Shaojin said this and closed his eyes.
Cheng Chi understood.
There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
Shao Jin is a Buddhist who wouldn't even step on an ant, so how could he kill someone in front of her!
Xiao Zhenhai is already at the end of his rope. Why not kill him at any time? Why should Shao Jin be afraid
Cheng Chi patted Zhou Shaojin's back gently.
Xiao Zhenhai was filled with shock.
The little girl pleaded with Cheng Zichuan on his behalf, but Cheng Zichuan actually hesitated.
Cheng Zichuan, who had a heart as firm as a rock and a strong will, actually hesitated!
You have to know that he and Cheng Zichuan are not competing for supremacy, but have a feud that will destroy their families, and the situation is one of life and death.
Cheng Zichuan finally caught him, but now he might change his mind because of that little girl!
Like a wild animal's instinct, Xiao Zhenhai immediately seized this opportunity - he had fought Cheng Zichuan before, but never like this. He could sense Cheng Zichuan's killing intent. If he hadn't used all his strength to avoid his arrow, the arrow would have passed through his chest.
"Cheng Zichuan, you are so cruel." He said fiercely, but in his heart he decided to surrender. "I, Xiao Zhenhai, have always been upright and have never owed anyone a favor. But this time, I owe this little girl for saving my life. Don't you just want me to take the blame for you? I, Xiao Zhenhai, am a bachelor now, and I have nothing to take revenge on this little girl. For the sake of this little girl, I will help you this time. It can also be regarded as repaying the little girl's kindness..."
How wonderful it would be to turn hostility into friendship!
Zhou Shaojin raised his head and looked at Cheng Chi eagerly.
Cheng Chi raised his eyebrows and sneered in his heart.
He just decided to surrender because he was desperate, but he put on airs and negotiated terms with me, and even dragged Shao Jin into it.
If people in the martial arts world asked why the famous head of the Xiao family was being controlled by them, "I have no way to repay you for saving my life" would be a good excuse!
Cheng Chi glanced at Xiao Zhenhai with disdain.
Xiao Zhenhai's face turned red, but soon returned to normal.
But when Cheng Chi lowered his head to look at Zhou Shaojin, he was stunned.
Her eyes were red, and on her long eyelashes were hanging tears that were about to fall, crystal clear like morning dew, and she looked at him sadly... His chest seemed to be blocked... How could he say no...
Cheng Chi's mind went round and round... but it only took a few breaths.
Then I’ll deal with Xiao Zhenhai later!
Cheng Chi handed the bow and arrow to Huaishan and told him, "Take Master Xiao down to heal his wounds!"
Huaishan walked over slowly, supported Xiao Zhenhai, and pulled out the arrow from Xiao Zhenhai's body.
Blood gushed out in large amounts.
Huaishan pressed Xiao Zhenhai's acupoints.
Xiao Zhenhai pressed the wound carelessly, looked at Zhou Shaojin who was nestled in Cheng Chi's arms, and suddenly laughed. His tone returned to his previous frivolousness, and he said to Zhou Shaojin: "The house I promised is still valid. Send someone to get the house deed from me one day. If you can't find me, find your uncle Chi, he will definitely know where I am."
Zhou Shaojin felt that Cheng Chi's arm around him was slightly stiff.
She hurriedly said, "I don't want it, I don't want your house!"
Xiao Zhenhai chuckled and said, "Whether you want it or not is your business. Whether I send you off or not is my business. Don't worry, your Uncle Chi is not that narrow-minded!" He said, whistled, and walked past Cheng Chi and Zhou Shaojin.
Huaishan glanced at Cheng Chi quietly.
Cheng Chi had no expression on his face.
Huaishan quickly walked out of the guest room.
Only Zhou Shaojin, Cheng Chi and Nanny Shang were left in the room.
It was quiet and there was no sound.
Only then did Zhou Shaojin realize that he was still in Cheng Chi's arms.
Waves of heat rushed to her face.
She quickly pushed Cheng Chi away, lowered her eyes and stood aside.
Nanny Shang was extremely embarrassed and said quickly, "I'll go find someone to clean up the room." Then she ran away.
Cheng Chi also felt a little uncomfortable.
He just wanted to protect Zhou Shaojin under his wing at that time without thinking too much. But now it seems like a very out-of-control thing.
Cheng Chi suddenly coughed lightly and said in a gentle voice: "I didn't check when you left the city. I didn't expect him to hide in your box. Later, I thought of this possibility and rushed over... Did you get scared?"
Zhou Shaojin shook his head.
Uncle Chi's cold expression just now scared her...
Cheng Chi smiled and said, "That's good!"
Zhou Shaojin smiled and lowered his head.
It was the dead of night, she should have asked Uncle Chi to leave, but she couldn't say such words to Uncle Chi no matter what.
The atmosphere became quiet for a moment.
Cheng Chi thought it was impossible to ask Shao Jin, a little girl, to save the situation, but it was not good to just leave like this... He couldn't help but sigh in his heart and said, "I want to go to the capital too, do you want to go with me?"
"Okay! Okay!" Zhou Shaojin raised his head, his eyes bright as the twinkling morning stars, filled with unmistakable joy, "With Uncle Chi as our companion, we don't have to worry about where to stay or where to stay in a hotel!"
And it’s safe!
The atmosphere became cheerful again.
Cheng Chi felt that his mood also became lighter.
He smiled and said, "Madame Shang will clean up the house. Don't worry about anything. Go to bed quickly. We have to travel tomorrow."
Zhou Shaojin nodded and saw Cheng Chi out, but her eyes couldn't help but fall on Cheng Chi.
She discovered that Cheng Chi was wearing a jade ring on the thumb of his right hand.
Uncle Chi used this to pull the bow just now!
But how come Uncle Chi is so powerful
Also, Xiao Zhenhai said that Uncle Chi is the Fourth Master of Qixingtang... Doesn’t the name Qixingtang sound like the name of a business
Zhou Shaojin came back to his senses, his mind in a mess.
Cheng Chi smiled at her and teased her, "Do you like this?"
"Ah!" Zhou Shaojin raised his head in confusion, with a bewildered expression.
Cheng Chi chuckled and took off the jade ring on his hand: "Aren't you staring at this? You like it, right? I'll give it to you!"
"No, no." Zhou Shaojin's face was as red as the morning glow.
Cheng Chi smiled even more.
He put the fingerboard into Zhou Shaojin's palm and said softly, "I'll tell you in detail when I have time!"
"Huh?!" Zhou Shaojin was even more confused.
Cheng Chi laughed and left.
In the night, he had a handsome figure and walked swiftly.
Zhou Shaojin rubbed the thumb ring in his hand, and it took him a while to understand what Cheng Chi meant.
Did he mean that he would explain to her his relationship with Qixingtang when he had the chance
The corners of Zhou Shaojin's mouth curled up high, and his heart felt sweet as if he had eaten honey.
