Chapter 15: The Old Treacherous and Cunning

After listening to Nan Guochang's words, Chu Xi no longer stopped him, and helped Qi Lao up after a while.

"Get up, Qi Lao, I accept this intention, but I still hope you can keep it secret about me, I don't want others to know about it for the time being. ”

Qi Lao nodded frequently, he had already understood this in his heart.

Chu Xi was less than 30 years old to be able to cultivate a miracle doctor like Nan Guochang, and he must have the ability to reach the sky, at least not under Nan Guochang.

has such a ability but only stooped to be a small department manager in the Sheng Shang Group, even if Ma Shengling has been unfavorable to him many times, he still has not used such a strong network as Nan Guochang with great fanfare.

Chu Xi acted in a low-key manner, but he didn't want to expose too much, Qi Lao knew it very well in his heart, so naturally he would not commit Chu Xi's taboo.

"Sir, rest assured, I will keep your affairs confidential and ensure that no one will hear about you from me, including my granddaughter. ”

Qi Lao heard his granddaughter Qi Mengli say that Chu Xi did not leave Huai Town, and also said that Chu Xi wanted Ma Shengling to see him take a detour.

When he first heard these words, Qi Lao just smiled indifferently, and sighed that the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and his spirit was commendable, but he was still a little too young.

But now Qi Lao understands that Chu Xi's words are not lies, he does have this ability, but it depends on whether he is willing or not!

Chu Xi believed that Qi Lao could do this, and responded, "I left in a hurry during the day, and I didn't have a chance to thank Qi Lao for saving me." ”

Qi Lao was embarrassed for a while, and responded with an embarrassed expression, "Don't, don't...... Sir, don't say that, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed......"

From this point of view, it seems that Qi Lao's self-initiated rescue of Chu Xi by the Sheng Shang Group seems to be a bit of an overkill.

With Chu Xi's strength, even if he doesn't make a move, I'm afraid Ma Shengling won't be able to help him.

However, Qi Lao's move saved himself.

If it weren't for Qi Lao's kindness to win Chu Xi's favor, Chu Xi might not have saved Qi Lao's life, and Qi Lao also sighed at the miracle of fate.

"Master, let's talk about it here, it's time to get down to business. ”

Qi Lao was puzzled, "What's the matter?"

Chu Xi said straight to the point, "Although you have recovered now, you still need to pretend to be dead for a while." ”

Qi Lao frowned, very puzzled, "Why is this?"

Chu Xi explained, "The poison in your body is a new type of chemical toxin, it is not easy to develop this toxin, there is no accidental ingestion, so the poisoning is no coincidence, someone must have deliberately poisoned you." ”

"How is that possible!"

Qi Lao was quite shocked, he didn't expect the matter to be so serious.

"Can you imagine anyone who would want your life?"

Qi Lao frowned, thought for a moment and said, "At my age, I have no quarrel with the world, and I don't like to compete with others, so I have never had any enemies.

However, it is common for people to have conflicts of interest in the business world, but it is also based on their strength, and I can't think of anything serious enough to kill me. ”

Chu Xi thought for a moment, but he also had no clue.

Qi Lao asked, "But what does this have to do with making me pretend to be dead?"

Nan Guochang looked at Qi Lao with a disgusted face, "Old Qi, you are really confused about you! This person has wasted so much energy to poison you, and now that you are alive again, guess what kind of experience you will have." ”

Qi Lao was understood by Nan Guochang's words.

If a murder fails, the other party will definitely want to do it again, as long as Qi Lao is still alive, then his life is in danger at any time, but if Qi Lao is dead, then he will live forever.

"And that's not all. Chu Xi added, "Since Qi Lao has no enemies, the possibility of vendetta is very low, and the other party will definitely have further activities after Qi Lao falls, in order to lure out the murderer, pretending to be dead is definitely the best strategy." ”

Qi Lao nodded slightly, agreeing very much with Chu Xi and Nan Guochang's views.

No wonder Chu Xi asked him to speak quietly when he first woke up, because he didn't want people outside to know about his awakening, and he was really thoughtful.

"I know, I won't let anyone know I'm awake except for Mengli. ”

"No!" Chu Xi said sharply, "No one can say it, including your granddaughter." ”

Qi Lao frowned, and said in a somewhat dissatisfied tone, "It's okay if others don't say it, Mengli, I have to say, I know this girl, if I keep lying on the hospital bed, she will definitely worry about death." ”

"That can't be said, Mengli is naturally impulsive, I'm afraid that she will show her feet if she is not careful, so that the murderer will find something. ”

Qi Lao shook his head and hurriedly explained, "Sir, this is wrong, although my granddaughter is usually spoiled and a little willful, she is very calm.

I know that my husband said this because Qi Mengli rushed into the fire to save people that day regardless of her own safety, but there is actually another secret to this matter. ”

Chu Xi asked puzzledly, "What is the secret?"

Qi Lao sighed lightly, as if he remembered the past that he didn't want to recall.

"Mengli has been a little naughty since she was a child, and when she was eight years old, she played with fire at home and set fire to the furniture, and a big fire broke out, and her mother was burned alive by the fire in order to save her.

This incident became an insurmountable chasm in her heart, and she could never forgive herself, and I often heard her crying alone in the house when I woke up at night.

I tried many times to convince her to let go of it, but I couldn't heal her wounds, and I could only watch her grief.

Although I wasn't at the scene on the day of the fire and don't know what happened, I think she must have remembered herself when she was a child, remembered her mother, and went out of her way to save the little girl, maybe only by doing so could she feel better. ”

Chu Xi was silent and fell into deep thought.

It turned out that this willful and rude little princess had such a deep scar in her heart.

Chu Xi recalled Qi Mengli's eyes when he looked at the little girl that day, and recalled Qi Mengli's actions, he could feel how much Qi Mengli blamed himself in his heart for this matter.

Chu Xi sighed helplessly.

"I understand your feelings, but it's better to hide it from her, the person who dares to blatantly align with the old man who poisoned you will never be a general, in case the murderer really finds out that you are pretending to be dead, then both of you and grandchildren will be in danger. ”

"But ......"

"Don't worry, during your time in the hospital, I will accompany her, and she will be fine with me. ”

Qi Lao's face, who was still dissatisfied just now, changed, and he actually said with a smile: "That's great, Mengli will ask Mr."

"Huh?"

Nan Guochang hesitated, this old face of Qi Lao has become too fast, what about changing his face when playing Sichuan opera?

But after pondering it again, Nan Guochang suddenly understood, thinking that Qi Zhengheng, this old thing, was really a chicken thief, and even his own life-saving benefactor was calculated.

Nan Guochang just felt that there was no need for Qi Lao to be so persistent in his granddaughter's affairs, it turned out that he was just waiting for Chu Xi to say this.

With Chu Xi by his side, he can not only take care of and protect Qi Mengli, but more importantly, he can take this opportunity to match the two.

If Qi Lao really accepted Chu Xi's grandson-in-law, he would be able to wake up laughing in his dreams!

Seeing that Qi Lao had a smile hidden in his mouth, Nan Guochang shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself, "Master is still young in this regard......"

Qi Lao struck while the iron was hot, and continued to flatter, "Then I will be tired of Mr. during this time, my granddaughter is usually spoiled, a little rude and willful, and I hope Mr. will take care of it more."

There is a card in the pocket of my clothes that I don't use much, there are 30 million in it, and my husband will use it, if it is not enough, he can take it at any time, and there is no cap. ”

It can be seen that Qi Lao has nothing else, but he has a lot of money, and he can refill the cup for free as soon as he makes a move, and the world of capitalists is so boring.

Chu Xi was just about to refuse, but Nan Guochang on the side interjected, "Master, you can accept it, I start with 10 million for a clinic now, if I save Qi Lao's life, but only give me 30 million, I can block Qi Lao." ”

Qi Lao on the side suddenly realized something, and hurriedly added, "Brother Nanguo, don't say that, you hung me, if it weren't for you, I would have lost my life a long time ago, and I will send 100 million to your account when I turn around." ”

Chu Xi glared at Nan Guochang, this guy seemed to be talking for himself, and he was asking Qi Lao for money, why are they so cunning and cunning!

Nan Guochang comprehended Chu Xi's terrifying eyes, and coughed dryly.

"It's better to give it all to my master, count me as honoring the old master. ”

Chu Xi secretly scolded in his heart, your special mother is the old man, and your whole family is an old man!
