After clearly telling Wufu and the others not to be impatient, Cheng Xingyun made arrangements to let Li Mingxiu leave with Qin Baichuan, and ordered Tan Jiaotou and Ying Tiannan to take people to escort Wufu and others down, Qin Baichuan does not know martial arts, Li Mingxiu alone is enough, although Wufu and others have good combat power, but Tan Jiaotou is personally in charge, and he is not afraid of what storms they will set off.

After everyone left, only Cheng Xingyun and the two guards were left in the room, and Cheng Xingyun, who was unfathomable in front of Qin Baichuan, suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to the guards on the left: "Lord." ”

"Hmm." The guard was the one who coughed lightly before, and nodded to Cheng Xingyun and said, "Good job." ”

"It's all the Lord's orders, Chen Xingyu doesn't dare to be greedy." This Cheng Xingyun reported another name: "It's just ...... Lord, I don't quite understand, if you can't find out that Qu Xi is his wife, it's just that, now that it has been verified, why do you have to provide such broad conditions? Wouldn't it be easier for me to directly threaten my wife and children as I did with other people? ”

"Because Qin Baichuan is no one else." The black-clothed guard chuckled lightly and said, "Extraordinary people must use extraordinary means. ”

"I understand that the Lord wants to take him for his own purposes completely." Cheng Xingyun or Chen Xingyu nodded and said, "But this person is full of rebelliousness, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to subdue." What if after he met Qu Xi, he still refused to sign this wordless contract? ”

"He's a smart guy, countersign." The black-clothed guard was very sure and said with a smile: "As for whether he is sincere or not, it doesn't matter, the future will be long, and he will make the right choice when the time is right." ”

"That's what it is...... Anyway, there is a wordless contract in hand, and Qu Xi...... I am not afraid that he will be disobedient. Cheng Xingyun nodded.

"The wordless contract is something that is placed on the surface, you can use it as a coercion for anything, but once Qin Baichuan signs the contract, you must not make any unfavorable moves against the Splendid Villa, the Hundred Flowers Workshop, and Quxi in the future." The black-clothed guard said: "This is Qin Baichuan's reverse scales, once you touch it, burning Qin Baichuan with jade will also make you look good." ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand." The lord favored Qin Baichuan, and Cheng Xingyun was inevitably a little jealous in his eyes.

This black-clothed master is obviously a person who is proficient in people's hearts, no matter how well Cheng Xingyun disguised it, he also noticed it, and said with a light smile: "You don't have to feel uncomfortable, Chen Bing and the two sides of the strait, the decisive victory is between the moments, Qin Baichuan is not as good as you, but the shopping mall is vertical and horizontal, accumulating money, you are not as good as him." If it is used properly, one after the other, one outside and one inside, he will lay a great territory for me, and if you are not in harmony, the foundation of my chest will be destroyed. ”

"Lord, subordinates have their livers and brains on the ground, and they are dead." Cheng Xingyun knelt on his knees, kowtowed and said.

"Get up." The black-clothed lord waved his hand and said, "It has always been my purpose to make the best use of people's talents, and for Qin Baichuan, one piece and one relaxation is the way to use people, so I let him see Qu Xi first." It's not early, you've been busy all night, so go have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and call him over tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes!" Cheng Xingyun stood up and bowed his head in agreement.

"In addition, the impact of the war in Anyang is very great, and in the past few days, I will seize the time to put away the tail, and then leave this place as soon as possible." The black-clothed lord seemed to be a little sleepy, and without waiting for Cheng Xingyun to agree again, he waved his hand casually, and Cheng Xingyun respectfully withdrew from the room.

The black-clothed lord and Cheng Xingyun had already made a decision, and Qin Baichuan, under the leadership of Li Mingxiu, walked through two corridors, pushed open an inconspicuous small door, and walked in with Qin Baichuan. Qin Baichuan looked up, where he was located, there were bungalows on three sides, and an independent small courtyard was built by using the outer wall of the bungalow, and from the outside, it seemed that three houses were connected, and no one would have thought that there was a hole in the sky here.

"Mr. Qin, Master Qu Zhuang is inside." Li Mingxiu pointed to the closed door and said lightly: "You go in by yourself, if Cheng Gongzi doesn't have instructions, I won't go in and disturb easily, Mr. can rest assured." However, I also remind you that there are eyeliners inside and outside this Qianjin gambling house, and I will guard the door, Mr. Qin should not have other thoughts, so as not to make it difficult for everyone. ”

"Li Mingxiu, if I had a chance, I would be the first to kill you." Qin Baichuan's voice was fierce, and he hated this kind of dog leg the most.

"Anyang failed, and my life is superfluous until now." Li Mingxiu didn't care about Qin Baichuan's threat at all, threw down a sentence and turned to leave, closing the small door for Qin Baichuan.

Qin Baichuan walked directly to the door of the courtyard room along the only path, stretched out his hand and touched the wall carefully, this room looks like a wooden structure from the outside, but after scraping off the lacquer on it, what is exposed inside is clearly a big bluestone, originally he thought that he would burn down the Qianjin Gambling House, but now it seems to be no fun.

Sighing lightly, Qin Baichuan knocked on the door, there was no sound inside, he stretched out his hand and pushed, the stone door of the courtyard was a little heavy, and it took him some effort to push open the small crack that only allowed one person to pass through. He finally knew why this door was not on the chain, not to mention that there were eyeliner inside and outside the courtyard of the Qianjin Gambling House, even if there was no one, it was impossible to push open the door with a woman's strength - of course, except for people who practiced martial arts like Erqiu Yu Qingwu.

In fact, even if the stone prison of the Qianjin Gambling House is different from the ordinary stone prison, the lights in the room are flickering, the tables, chairs and benches are all the necessary supplies for life, and there is a beautifully carved stone bed opposite, in addition to not being able to enter and exit freely, it is more like a place to live.

Behind the desk in the room sat a woman dressed in white, holding a thick book in her hand, and reading it carefully by the light, as if she were in her own courtyard, and her face was not visible except for a little tiredness. She had already heard someone push the door, but she never even raised her eyelids, calmly, indifferently, calmly, as if she didn't take everything to heart.

"Qu Xi......" She was able to keep her composure, but when Qin Baichuan saw the little face carved like ice and snow, there was an irrepressible tremor in her voice. The woman raised her head, her eyes flashed with a complicated light, and before she could speak, Qin Baichuan trotted over, having a lot of things to ask in his heart, but when Qu Xi really appeared in front of him, he didn't know where to start.

"I'm sorry." The cold mountain of Qu Da Zhuang opened his mouth with these three words.

"Why say you're sorry?" Qin Baichuan was a little surprised, in his consciousness, his precious wife would never say these three words easily.

"I promised to go back with you for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, but unfortunately I didn't do it." Qu Xi's voice didn't fluctuate at all, and his mood seemed to be very good, staring at Qin Baichuan for a while: "There are still ...... Cheng Yangtian's cousin arrested me and wanted to go back to the Hundred Flowers Workshop...... Once again, I took advantage of you, telling him that the Hundred Flowers Workshop had given it to my father-in-law, and that he wanted your consent......"

"It's okay, I don't care." Whether it is active or passive, at this time, both of them are trapped in a cage and do not know whether they are alive or dead, and the things they care about in their hearts do not seem to be as important as they used to be.

"I was thinking at the time, the Qianjin Gambling House is the property of Desheng Gong, and Desheng Gong can send a golden God of Wealth when Wangjiang Tower opens, and I want to have a good relationship with you, so I said that. I didn't say your name, though......"

Qu Xi seemed to want to explain that it was helpless to use Qin Baichuan again, but Qin Baichuan shook his head vigorously and said, "Needless to say, I am your father-in-law, and you can think of me in such an emergency, this is not a use, but a reliance." I...... It's a bit of a stretch to say that now, but I'm happy. ”

"You're a strange man." Qu Xi looked at Qin Baichuan, who laughed inexplicably, and frowned: "If I say a few words to Cheng Yangtian in Wanhua Xiaozhu, you will be so angry that you want to die, saying that I have no feelings; Now I know what I did wrong, and I apologize to you, and you say you're happy...... In your own words, do you have a pit in your head? ”

"No, absolutely not." Qin Baichuan was even more happy, in this kind of place, he actually felt the human touch of Quxi for the first time. But now is not gossiping after all, when it is time to pull feelings, Qin Baichuan sat opposite Qu Xi and said seriously: "Qu Xi, tell me, how did you come here, that is called Cheng Xingyun, and what did he tell you?" ”

Qu Xi put aside the books in her hand, although she can remain indifferent here alone, but this indifference is somewhat strong and competent, and now that Qin Baichuan is by her side, she has a sense of security. Listening to his questioning, Qu Xi said: "Since the Jiangling Mansion left, I went to the Splendid Villa, worried that you have no acquaintances available in the Hundred Flowers Workshop, so I brought the entire marketing department to the Hundred Flowers Workshop, and the housekeeper Ding also brought it over. ”

"I know all this, let's just say after leaving the Hundred Flowers Workshop." Qin Baichuan interrupted her.

"After finishing the affairs of Splendid Villa and Baihua Workshop, I received a secret report that Cheng Yangtian had left Jiangling, and Xiao Yu couldn't hide such a big thing from the Xiao family, so he packed up his things and returned to his hometown in the countryside at noon to discuss countermeasures with his father. Cheng and Xiao didn't have any arrangements to fight back, and since those people in the Shuzhai Tea House had been busy recently, I decided to let them go back to prepare for Chinese New Year's Eve. Qu Xi said: "After making arrangements, I will ask Hu Bo to prepare the car and return to Wanhua Xiaozhu." ”

Speaking of this, Qu Xi was silent for a while, and then said: "I saw that it was still early, and when I passed by the main city, I suddenly remembered that I still had a piece ......of clothing in Jinyifang, and you seemed to have ordered a set there, so I was ready to pick it up by the way" Qu Xi glanced at Qin Baichuan and snorted: "Don't think about it, Da Song Chinese New Year's Eve has said that you are wearing new clothes, I am afraid that you will be unlucky in wearing old clothes, so I moved such thoughts." ”

"Really?" Qu Xi had a slight panicked look on his face, and the more Qin Baichuan looked at it, the more happy he felt, in fact, ...... No matter how ruthless his mouth is, Qu Xi is really making changes little by little.

"Of course it's true." Qu Xi decisively affirmed, and said: "When I arrived at Jinyifang, there was only one apprentice, so I waited in the shop, and he called the tailor master." After waiting for about a cup of tea, the master tailor came to give me the clothes, and when I came out, I saw the carriage stopped at the door, and Huber did not know where to go. ”

"I thought that Hu Bo was in an internal hurry, so he left for the time being, so I went back to the carriage and waited." There was a slight fluctuation in Qu Xi's voice: "It didn't take long for the carriage to move, and I didn't feel anything at first, but the sound of the man's breathing was different from that of Hu Bo, so I opened the door...... As soon as the car door opened, there was a strange smell in my nose, and I didn't know anything, and when I woke up, I appeared here and saw the Cheng Xingyun you said. ”

Qin Baichuan's lips moved, it seemed that the other party was acting separately, and Qu Xi didn't know that Hu Bo's life was hanging by a thread. was hesitating whether to tell Qu Xi, Qu Xi said again: "He didn't say anything to me, just said that it was Cheng Yangtian's cousin and asked me to go back to the Hundred Flowers Workshop, and I used you as a shield." ”

"Qu Xi, aren't you afraid?" If another woman was kidnapped, it was estimated that she would at least be frightened and slurred by speech, but Qu Xi didn't have those reactions at all.

"Afraid? Why be afraid, it's not the first time anyway. Qu Xi suddenly sighed: "I used such means to snatch the silver of the Cheng and Xiao families, which can be regarded as a sin...... Heaven is clear, retribution is unpleasant, allow me to use such means, and don't allow people to fight back? It's okay like this, report it back, and see Cheng Yangtian again in the future, I don't have any guilt. ”

"Don't see that dead eunuch again." Qin Baichuan said with a dark face.
