The driver listened to his seriousness, smiled and gave him some advice from an experienced person: "Young man, it's too early for you to get married and have children, so don't try anything new. It's definitely better to do some things when you are at the right age than to try them now, understand?"
Qi Weichen was silent for a moment: "What year were you born in?"
"I was born in 2012 and I'm 30 years old this year. I should be qualified to educate you, right?" The driver smiled.
Qi Weichen glanced at him and said, "Oh, post-10."
Driver: “?” Why does his tone sound weird
When we arrived at the school gate, Chu Qing was still sleeping. The driver parked the car and turned around: "We've arrived."
"Wait, she hasn't woken up yet." Qi Weichen stared at Chu Qing.
The driver twitched his lips. “I have to keep driving. How can I sit here with you and wait for her to wake up?”
"You continue to use the meter and I'll pay." Qi Weichen said lightly.
The driver paused and said, "Okay, since you insist..."
Before she finished speaking, Chu Qing suddenly woke up and subconsciously wiped the corner of her mouth. She was relieved when she saw that there was no saliva. She looked outside, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We're here, get out of the car." After that, she opened the car door and got out.
Qi Weichen looked at the driver: "You can't make more money."
Driver: “…” Thank you, it’s not that rare.
When Qi Weichen got out of the car, Chu Qing quickly stepped aside, one meter away from him: "We agreed that we can't hold hands when we go back to school."
"Yeah." Qi Weichen nodded.
Chu Qing was relieved and walked towards the school with him. She thought they could go directly back to the dormitory, but he turned around and went to the supermarket.
"Hey, hey, hey, where are you going?" Chu Qing's scalp tingled.
Even though she was yelling at him from behind, Qi Weichen didn't look back and walked towards the supermarket firmly. She had no choice but to follow him. She saw him holding a basket and carefully selecting snacks. His expression looked like he was participating in some international event.
"Aren't you full?" She walked over helplessly.
Qi Weichen glanced at her and continued to focus on the snacks. Chu Qing found that the drunk Qi Weichen was completely incommunicable. If his thinking system was different from that of ordinary people when he was sober, then now he had messed up his different thinking system... He couldn't even be called a human being.
At times like this, it's easiest to just go along with him.
Sure enough, after Chu Qing cooperated and helped him choose some food, the efficiency was significantly improved. The two of them bought everything in just a few minutes and went directly to the dormitory from the supermarket.
After entering the dormitory gate, Chu Qing led him to the boys' dormitory. When she sent him downstairs, she breathed a sigh of relief and said to him, "Okay, go in. I'll leave first."
Qi Weichen looked at her without saying anything. Chu Qing's mouth twitched. She simply didn't expect his response anymore and turned around and walked towards the girls' dormitory. However, after just a few steps, she felt something was wrong. She turned around suddenly and saw him following her calmly.
"… Why are you following me?" Chu Qing opened her eyes wide.
Qi Weichen looked at her calmly: "I'll take you downstairs."
Chu Qing: “…”
After staring at each other in silence for three seconds, Chu Qing decisively continued to walk towards her dormitory, and Qi Weichen followed her. When they reached the downstairs, she asked with a straight face, "Can you go back now?"
Qi Weichen was silent for a moment: "Are you going to send me off?"
… You send me off, I send you off, you send me off, you don’t plan to go in, right? Chu Qing was so angry that she laughed.
Qi Weichen noticed that she seemed to have reached the limit of her patience, so he silently handed her the bag he had been holding: "Here you go."
"Huh?" Chu Qing was stunned.
Qi Weichen lowered his eyes: "You didn't eat just now."
Chu Qing: “…”
"For you." Qi Weichen repeated.
Chu Qing pursed her lips and refused awkwardly: "Take it back and eat it. I have some in my dormitory..."
"For you." Qi Duduji said.
Chu Qing's eyelids jumped, and she took it decisively, and Qi Weichen turned and left. Chu Qing watched his back getting farther and farther away, and she was not very reassured, so she secretly followed him, and only turned back after she was sure that he had entered the dormitory building.
After arriving at the dormitory, she collapsed directly on the bed. Although she had not done anything, she felt so tired that she could not help but let out a long sigh.
After a short break, she glanced at the snacks that were casually placed on the chair, and then she felt a sour feeling in her heart. Although Qi Weichen was nonsensical after drinking, he always showed a warmth that made people feel soft in their hearts. He was not like the noble moon in the sky, which seemed close, but could not be guessed or reached.
If he could have made her feel cared for like he does now, maybe they wouldn't have broken up so quickly. After a while, she took a deep breath and suppressed her complicated thoughts.
In the restaurant here, after Qi Weichen and Chu Qing left, Qi Muyang and others finished their meal with laughter, and then ran to play the escape room together. They had fun for the whole afternoon before returning to school.
When he arrived at the dormitory, Qi Weichen was still sleeping. He took a shower and lay down on the bed, and soon fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already dark. He looked at Qi Weichen's bed and found that no one was there.
Qi Muyang yawned and lazily lay on the bed. Just as he was about to play a game, his cell phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number. He hung up directly, but the other party called again. Qi Muyang made an impatient sound and then picked up the phone: "Hello?"
"Hello, Qi. I'm Zhou Wen, the owner of Blue Lord Internet Cafe. Do you still remember me?" A gentle voice came from the phone.
Qi Muyang paused: "Are you okay?"
"It's like this. Li Chao and others have already paid me their compensation, but you and Chu Qing haven't yet. I just want to ask, when will you transfer the money?" the boss said slowly.
Qi Muyang was stunned at first, then frowned: "What compensation? Didn't you tell Qi Weichen that you don't want us to pay?"
"What are you talking about? How can I not ask you to pay for it? This is a huge sum of money. My small internet cafe may not make that much in half a year," the boss said in a deep voice. "How about this, give me your parents' phone numbers and I'll go talk to them. They are adults and know the harm of not paying back debts."
"You're fucking plotting against us?!" Qi Muyang exploded.
The boss smiled and said, "You're kidding. You testified for me yourself. I didn't force you. Now that the evidence and testimony have been collected, it's unlikely that you will change your mind and overturn it. It's better to compensate as soon as possible..."
Before he could finish his words, Qi Muyang hung up the phone angrily, and paced around the room like a trapped beast, his anger almost blowing the roof off his head.
Not long after he hung up, his phone rang again. He hung up again without thinking, but the other party kept calling. Finally, he answered the call angrily: "What the hell do you want?! I can't give you the money, don't even think about it..."
"Qi Muyang, it's me." Chu Qing's helpless voice came from the phone.
Qi Muyang was stunned for a moment, then he looked at the caller ID.
"Did the Internet cafe owner call you?" Chu Qing asked.
Qi Muyang sat down with a cold face: "Did you get hit too?"
"We might really have been tricked this time." Chu Qing said in a heavy voice.
Qi Muyang was furious: "It was already a big loss to have to pay 85,000 yuan, and now I have to pay 250,000 yuan. Where can I get the money?"
"Calm down first. Where is Qi Weichen? Find a solution with him." Chu Qing sighed.
It would be fine if he wasn't mentioned. Qi Muyang got even angrier when he was mentioned: "There are only hundreds of thousands of dollars in his card. It's not enough even if we take it all out! Besides, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have fallen into the trap..."
"Qi Muyang, you can't say that," Chu Qing's voice slowed down, but it was more serious than ever before, "You asked them for help, and they helped you. If it weren't for the Internet cafe owner's greed, you wouldn't have to pay back a penny now. Now it's the boss who breached the contract, you can't blame Qi Weichen because of someone else's fault."
When she was reasoning, she was exactly like her mother, both serious and patient. Although Qi Muyang was irritable, he was always willing to listen to her. Now he realized how inappropriate his words were, and felt a little uncomfortable.
"... I just can't accept it all of a sudden. I'm not really blaming him." Qi Muyang muttered.
Chu Qing knew that the fool had realized his mistake as soon as she heard it. She sighed and said, "Come out first and contact Qi Weichen to see if he has any solution."
"… Um."
After the two hung up the phone, they started walking downstairs, texting Qi Weichen as they walked. Ten minutes later, three people sat by the window in the cafeteria, and two of them looked worried.
"What should we do now? That grandson insisted that we pay back the money, and said that if we don't pay back the money, he will come to the school to find the class teacher and contact the parents directly," Qi Muyang put his phone on the table with a stern face. The screen showed the message just sent by the boss, "He really wants to blackmail us this time."
"Do you have any solution?" Chu Qing looked at Qi Weichen.
Qi Weichen nodded slightly, and the remaining two people's eyes lit up immediately.
As the two were expecting, he lowered his eyes and took out his mobile phone. He found his boss's number through the call log and dialed it. He pressed the speakerphone and put it on the table. Chu Qing and Qi Muyang immediately stared at the phone.
The phone rang only a few times before it was connected. The boss smiled gently, "Did your two classmates tell you? I knew you would call me."
Qi Muyang gritted his teeth and narrowed his eyes.
"You violated the agreement." Qi Weichen said lightly.
The boss smiled even more happily: "What agreement or no agreement? It's more than 200,000 yuan anyway. How can you give it up just because of a few words? Don't worry, after they pay the money, I will give you 20,000 yuan for nutrition expenses. I won't treat you unfairly."
Now even Chu Qing started to grit her teeth.
Qi Weichen waited quietly for him to finish speaking before slowly saying, "Do you think we can't do anything to you?"
"If you keep pestering me, the 20,000 yuan in nutrition money will all be gone," the boss's smile disappeared. "I've checked. Although you and Qi Muyang both have the same surname, you are not relatives. There's no need for you to give up the benefits I give you for a classmate. You should know that your annual living expenses may not even be 20,000..."
"I have a recording." Qi Weichen interrupted him.
The boss was stunned for a moment: "What?"
"Considering that your Internet cafe is open to minors and has been hiring thugs to look after the place for years, your character is not trustworthy. So when I first started negotiating with you, I recorded the entire process. The recording includes our phone calls and conversations during the meetings." Qi Weichen said slowly.
Chu Qing stared at him in amazement, and swallowed for a long time. When she turned to look at Qi Muyang, she found that this guy was not much better than herself.
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, and the boss's voice was slightly tense: "Okay, don't cheat me anymore. Did you just remember to record it now, so you want to cheat me into saying something else? I am legally asking for the compensation I deserve, and you can't do anything to me."
"Wait a moment, I'll send you the recording." Qi Weichen hung up the phone. After searching on his phone, he packaged the files and sent them to his boss's phone number.
It takes a while to send, Qi Weichen waited patiently, Qi Muyang beside him couldn't help asking: "Is there really a recording?"
"Yeah." Qi Weichen replied.
Qi Muyang opened his mouth, but was speechless. After a long while, he managed to say: "You are so fucking amazing..."
"Don't speak bad words to me." Qi Weichen taught.
Qi Muyang shut up instantly.
While the two were talking, the other party had already received the documents. Two minutes later, he called again. This time, his attitude was much better: "Xiao Qi, everything can be discussed... How about this, after they pay the compensation, we split it in half."
Qi Weichen said nothing.
"You take fifteen and I take ten." The boss gritted his teeth.
Qi Weichen still didn't speak.
"Are you twenty?" the boss said with difficulty, "You can't let me work for nothing, can you?"
"The Internet cafe suffered a loss of 170,000 yuan, and you are claiming 500,000 yuan in compensation. This is suspected of fraud. If you hand over the recording, you will face fines and imprisonment." Qi Weichen said calmly.
The boss was speechless: "Okay, okay, you are awesome, okay? I don't want their money, just give me the recording!"
"Sorry, no." Qi Weichen refused.
The boss laughed angrily: "So what if you have the recording? Do you dare to hand it in to the police station? Don't forget that it was you who proposed it. If I go to jail, you won't be able to rest!"
"If you listen carefully to the recording, you can tell that you are the one who is in charge of the whole thing," Qi Weichen said, pausing. "Unfortunately, I still have two months to go before I become an adult. This means that you are not only suspected of fraud, but also suspected of inducing a minor to commit a crime, which is an aggravated crime."
Chu Qing: “…”
Qi Muyang: “…”
Qi Weichen glanced at them and continued, "Most of the people who fought and made trouble in your Internet cafe are probably minors, which proves that your Internet cafe has been illegally making profits for a long time and has evaded taxes. Chu Qing still has three months to reach adulthood, which proves that you recruited child laborers. I suggest you sell the Internet cafe now, pay the fine, and go to jail to clean your neck."
Chu Qing and Qi Muyang: "..."
After Qi Weichen finished speaking, the boss fell into a long silence. After a long while, he said weakly: "What do you want? Isn't it enough that I know I'm wrong?"
"The Internet cafe already suffered a loss of 170,000 yuan, and Green Hair paid you 25 yuan, while my friend was beaten and got no compensation at all." Qi Weichen said calmly.
The boss paused and said, "I'll give them 10,000 yuan each as compensation."
"You took 80,000 more." Qi Weichen's voice was flat.
The boss took a deep breath and said gloomily after a long while: "Okay, 80,000. Give me an account number and I'll transfer it."
"Not enough." Qi Weichen's eyes were slightly cold.
The boss was furious: "What else do you want?!"
"I just said, give me 20,000 yuan for nutrition."
Chu Qing and Qi Muyang: “…” Shit, this is even possible? !
The boss seemed to be stunned by his shamelessness. After a long while, he stammered, "Are you still human?"
"Then see you at the police station." Qi Weichen said decisively.
The boss hurriedly said, "Give it to me, give it to me! I'll give it to you all! But you have to promise to delete the recording!"
"I can't delete it, but I can promise that I won't threaten you again after the money arrives," Qi Weichen said, pausing for a moment. "My current behavior is blackmail, and I will be held criminally liable if it is exposed. Giving me money is like buying yourself an insurance policy."
"Okay, just wait for me." The boss's voice sounded like it was about to bleed, and he hung up the phone.
The moment the phone was hung up, the world suddenly became quiet.
After a long time, Chu Qing asked carefully: "So... is the matter resolved like this?"
"… Not only was it resolved, but that grandson made three phone calls and even paid a hundred thousand in compensation." Qi Muyang was speechless.
Chu Qing swallowed her saliva and asked Qi Weichen with some concern: "He won't retaliate, right?"
"No, the recording is still in my hands." Qi Weichen said calmly.
Chu Qing let out a long sigh and suddenly covered her face.
Qi Weichen paused for a moment: "Not feeling well?"
"No," Chu Qing covered her face and refused to look up, "I'm afraid if I look at you again, I won't be able to help but call you daddy."
Qi Weichen: “…”
He looked at Qi Muyang silently.
Qi Muyang blinked in confusion: "What are you looking at? Although I admire you very much now, I am not yet at the point of calling you dad."
"Oh." Qi Weichen lowered his eyes.
Qi Muyang couldn't help but: "Oh what?"
"I will keep working on it."
Qi Muyang: “?”
The author has something to say: Internet cafe owner: I want to write an article called "What does it feel like to lose 100,000 yuan without even appearing on the stage"
Qi Weichen: If you don't behave yourself next time, it will be more than 100,000.
