Episode 21: Competition
Holding the apocryphal "car accident treatment" leave slip and blatantly canceling the leave, Ling Qi returned to the familiar big classroom. The days of class always pass very quickly, and another week has passed in the blink of an eye, and there is still no news from Fang Xiyuan, and Ling Qi has no other way than to be in a hurry.
This morning's criminal law happened to be the subject that Ling Qi was more interested in, although she was already familiar with the content that the teacher was spitting about, but those classic cases always got tired of listening, and it can be said that all kinds of strange and strange cases made criminal law the most entertaining professional class in the law major.
Ling Qi was listening with relish, and the mobile phone in his pocket vibrated slightly, and a text message came. took out her mobile phone and opened the slide cover, and the three big words "Fang Xiyuan" on the screen made her eyebrows jump: After swapping mobile phone numbers for so long, you finally remembered me?
"Do you usually dress so casually, why don't you dress like a woman?"
Neuropathy...... Ling Qi subconsciously looked down at the comfortable T-shirt and hot pants on his body, and rolled his eyes. looked around but didn't find Fang Xiyuan's figure, she was thinking about how to complain back, and the U608 in her hand shook again-
"Don't look, I'm not in the classroom. Put on that good outfit in the evening, take you to get the second gift, and see you at the school gate at 10 o'clock. ”
Ling Qi's eyes widened, and his slender fingers jumped a few times on the keyboard.
"What does this have to do with my clothes?"
"It has a lot to do with it, it directly determines whether you can get the goods smoothly, so that you can do it yourself. ”
Damn! What you want has to look at other people's faces, of course, you can only do what others ask, Ling Qi squeezed out a curse that only he could hear.
After hastily eating lunch, Ling Qi ran back to the dormitory, and the first thing he did was to turn on the computer and search for information about that set of clothes. Since she was discharged from the hospital, this unique summer dress has been washed and hung in the closet and never bothered to be bothered, no matter what the master ordered, she must check the price and return it a lot! She doesn't like to owe anything to others, let alone to him.
After struggling for half an hour, Ling Qi finally found the information she wanted in this unknown fashion field, but the girl's jaw hung down and she didn't close it......
Not to mention anything else, Li Yunmei's several high-end women's clothing brands are enough to compete with those world-famous brands in China, and they can make up five figures for just a set of summer clothes, not to mention the out-of-print goods she created herself! Ling Qi thought of his living expenses for a semester, and he was so embarrassed that he had been smirking in front of the ATM for so long, and he felt that after becoming a girl, he turned over into a serf and sang on his pocket money. Now I know how small money is in front of women's luxuries......
Fang Xiyuan, are you crazy, you sent such an expensive thing to me for no reason, I had a set of formal clothes from head to toe back then, why did this bit of fabric sell women's clothes at this price! Ling Qi wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, closed the notebook heavily, and his head sped fast. If the living expenses are all repaid, won't you have to drink the northwest wind this semester? It is definitely not possible to ask for money from the family again, and who can believe that such a large amount of Mani will be spent in just a few years since the start of school? It seems that you can only pay in installments......
It was 9:50 p.m.
Maybe he will meet with the members of the Qingyan Society in the evening, if he changes into the stiletto sandals that are not good for walking, and he can't beat and can't run away, wouldn't he also give an account of his life? So after putting on that out-of-print summer dress against his will, Ling Qi took it upon himself to turn the stiletto sandals into white canvas shoes that were easy to move, but he was a little more youthful and energetic.
In the women's backpack on her back was a pile of 10,000 yuan old man's head taken from the counter in the afternoon, but few people could find that this beautiful girl also had a small and sharp dagger pinned to her waist. Of course, the current Ling Qi can't get the double-edged combat dagger that he used before, so he can only buy a civilian version from the Internet to make up the number, not seeking to take the initiative to commit a prisoner but to be able to protect himself.
The Cadillac was parked in an inconspicuous corner of the shopping street, Fang Xiyuan's sturdy body hidden in the dimly lit cab, like a predator crawling in a lair, ready to leap to its feet and tear its hapless prey apart. Ling Qi pulled the door of the car for a moment, and a cool breath made his whole body tremble slightly, and he didn't know if it was the cold wind escaping from the car or the man's breath. She carefully examined Fang Xiyuan's expression, but this person slyly narrowed his eyes into a slit so that people could not see clearly.
"Get in the car, are you scared?" the deep voice hid a little banter.
The corners of the girl's mouth hooked up a sneer, and she didn't answer, and sat sideways in the passenger seat.
The air conditioning in the car was full of strength, and the huge temperature difference made Ling Qi, who was dressed coolly, feel very uncomfortable, after all, her daughter was even more cold. She raised her hand and made a few quick touches on the air conditioning buttons, reducing the air volume to an acceptable level. After another minute, the engine was still emitting an idling bass, and Ling Qi turned his head strangely and met a pair of complex and deep eyes.
"What are you looking at, why don't you leave?" the girl was a little impatient.
"You're dressed pretty well, why did you change your shoes?" Fang Xiyuan looked at Ling Qi unscrupulously for a while, and said something that made her feel extremely bored.
"Please, I'm not at the ball, your stiletto sandals are uncomfortable. ”
"Oh?" Fang Xiyuan's gaze left the girl's pretty face and stopped at the somewhat awkward bun behind her head, "Except for shoes, why did you coil up your hair, is it because you are afraid that you won't be able to show it in a fight?"
What kind of man is this, who can see through people's hearts so simply? Ling Qi's heart sank, and he turned his face to the other side with a weak heart. Suddenly, there was a movement in the back of her head, and she turned her face in some surprise, a waterfall of green silk had been sprinkled on her shoulders again, and Xi Shao was holding a black elastic hairband in her hand.
"Don't worry, there won't be any chance of fighting, it's better to look like this. Fang Xiyuan looked at the girl's somewhat helpless expression with a smile, and while reminiscing about the silky smooth touch in her hand just now, she threw the hairband out of the window.
Ling Qi glared at the other party and touched his head helplessly, not caring about such a trivial matter as a hairstyle. She took off the black backpack and put it on her lap, and the black and white scene attracted Xi Shao's attention again, but he didn't expect the girl to take out a red paper # bill from the bag.
Ling Qi handed the bundle of money to Xi Shao with his left hand, frowned slightly and said: "This is 10,000, pay back the money you bought for me clothes, this gift is too expensive for me to accept, and it will not give you face if I return it." I estimate that Li Yunmei's customized goods should be more than this price, don't you mind paying in installments?"
Fang Xiyuan's complexion changed, this move exceeded his expectations. The corners of the man's mouth twitched, and he said coldly: "Didn't I say that I would pay you for your birthday gift, don't you think it's more face-saving for you to do this?"
"I don't like to owe people something, especially yours. Ling Qi said very simply, "Isn't it easier to clear money and goods, and not owe each other." I'm so grateful to you for letting me see custom fashion, and my knowledge is also a gain. ”
Xi Shao's face suddenly turned cold, and half of it was hidden in the shadows, making Ling Qi unable to see it really. Just as he was thinking about what his emotions were now, suddenly a big hand grabbed the girl's left wrist, and the bundle of banknotes# was released with the pain of the slender hand and fell into the darkness below the seat. Ling Qi was startled, and reflexively withdrew his hand, but he didn't move.
"What are you doing, let go!" at night, the girl did not dare to recklessly beckon her wrist like the day she was drunk, so she could only struggle in vain.
After a few more seconds of entanglement, Xi Shao seemed to have seen enough of the girl's angry face, and let go of the claws with a smile. Ling Qi had a few pale strangulation marks on his left wrist, which quickly became congested due to the sudden loss of pressure, outlining a light red outline. She rubbed her left wrist to relieve the pain, staring at Fang Xiyuan's eyes indignantly.
"Since you are so sincere to repay the money, we will each take a step back, I can accept this ten thousand, and I don't want cash for the rest of the money, I just need you to do one thing for me at night. Fang Xiyuan stared at his right hand, and moved his five fingers defiantly a few times.
"What's the matter? The money can be paid off next semester, so don't threaten me with this. Ling Qi bent down angrily and groped under the seat, but he didn't know that when he leaned down, the spring light on his chest had all fallen into the eyes of the cherished man.
It's really big enough, and I cherish it while feasting my eyes and thinking evilly. It wasn't until the girl grabbed the stack of money and straightened up that he said in a flirtatious tone: "Just tonight, when I get to the place, I will pretend to be my girlfriend and say whatever you want." ”
"Dress up, don't disgust me!" Ling Qi felt sick in his heart like a fried cat. Pretend to be a man's girlfriend, you might as well let her sing love songs to the elephant!
But Fang Xiyuan's next words made the girl hesitate again: "You don't want to show any flaws in front of the people of the Qingyan Society, this is a rare first-line contact, and there will be no store in this village after that!"
Seeing Ling Qi's uncertain expression, Fang Xiyuan seemed to have known the answer a long time ago, and started the car with satisfaction, the 6-cylinder engine roared, and the Cadillac quickly disappeared into the night.
11:20 p.m., Minghua Road, X City, "Screen" Bar.
A burly young man in casual clothes walked in with a freshly dressed girl in his arms, and the waiter who greeted him respectfully guided the two to a large box hidden in the back # platform, knocked on the door and opened it, and then bowed deeply and retreated to the side. The young man was not polite, and put his right hand around the girl's shoulder and stepped into the door. There were already many people sitting in the room, and they all stood up and said hello when they saw the young man coming.
Hearing this, Ling Qi was secretly frightened, she tried her best to keep her expression normal, and quickly analyzed it in her head: Is Fang Xiyuan's posture no longer taboo and I know his details? Or is meeting the minions of the Qingyan Society the main dish of the night?
Just thinking about it, Xi Shao's hand had already added a little strength to signal her to sit down. After a few people sat down in order, most of their eyes looked at Ling Qi curiously, and the old knife at the far end spoke first and laughed: "It's a pity, don't you introduce this beautiful young lady to your brothers?"
"Oh, this is my new girlfriend, surnamed Ling. As he spoke, he pretended to stroke Ling Qi's head lovingly, causing the girl to get goosebumps and almost fall to the ground.
"I've seen Miss Ling!" Several young people greeted Ling Qi very obediently, she could only smile awkwardly one by one in response, and suddenly felt a burst of heat in her ears, and the whisper of regret came clearly:
"Just behaved like this, and the main man will come soon. ”
Several junior brothers reported to Fang Xiyuan in an orderly manner some of the recent situation on Minghua Road, Ling Qi listened with interest, after all, this was the first time she really came into contact with the internal communication of these so-called gangsters. Occasionally peeking at Xi Shao, this man still has a cynical smile on his face, but his eyes are serious and sharp.
After about fifteen minutes of reporting, a low report from the waiter came from outside the door: "Brother Chen is here." ”
