CHAPTER XXXIV
"I, I don't know what you're talking about". Zheng Duobao looked at Zhao Qi in confusion and panic.
"Don't pretend to be garlic in front of me, and say, are you here for the things of the year? How many of you are there? Zhao Qi asked with a dark face.
"I, I'm the only one." Zheng Duobao replied in a panic.
It was already dark at this time, but fortunately, the moonlight came out, and the position where they were standing was just right to be illuminated again, so it was not difficult for Zhao Liusi to notice the difference in the expressions of the two.
Zheng Duobao still looks stupid and sweet, he is very flustered, but that panic is not because of conspiracy, more like a child, panicked and helpless when he is suddenly questioned by the teacher, but he doesn't know what he has made wrong. As for Zhao Qi, Zhao Liusi looked at his father and found that his expression was much more interesting.
He seems to be genuinely afraid of something, and even though he is very calm, aggressive, and fierce, you can still feel the weakness inside him
"Hehe, there is only one person you come here, your sacrifice is really great, do you want to use you to get close to my daughter? I'll tell you it's dead! Zhao Qi showed a cruel smile, then grabbed Zheng Duobao's collar, and although the posture was funny, his expression was very terrifying, "Tell you, no matter how many of you are, it's useless." Catch the people who don't let go of the past, there is only one dead word! ”。
"I, I really don't know what you're talking about!" Zheng Duobao was almost scared to tears.
"Take care of your mouth, your hands, your legs, don't say things you shouldn't say, don't do things, don't go where you shouldn't go!" After Zhao Qigao dropped this sentence incomprehensibly, he turned around and left.
"What a strange man." After he left, Zheng Duobao was obviously relieved, he looked at the back of Zhao Qi leaving, scratched his head in confusion, and quickly shook his hair, leaving this episode behind, "Forget it, don't think about it, it's almost time for dinner, hurry up to the kitchen, maybe you can still eat meat buns." ”
Zheng Duobao left with a big heart, Zhao Liusi decided to follow Zhao Qi after thinking about it, anyway, the accounts will not run away there, and it will be the same when you come to check, but it was the dead word that Zhao Qi just said, which touched her a little painfully.
Maybe it's the paranoia of being killed, maybe it's the sixth sense, in short, she didn't recognize Zhao Qi at the bottom of the cliff at the beginning, just because she felt that Zhao Qi's love for her was a little strange. Although these actions were really touching, Zhao Liusi always had a feeling of danger approaching in his heart. She didn't know where the feeling came from, but she was wary of her father.
The Zhao Qi she saw before was cowardly and incompetent, in a low voice when she was strong with the eldest lady, in the patient persuasion of her own protection, and in the submissive to Liu Sheng's strength, she suddenly saw him threatening, it stands to reason that Zhao Liusi should feel surprised, but the strange thing is that Zhao Liusi did not dare to be surprised at all, she even had a kind of "finally so" thought, it seems that the boot that she was waiting for in the dark finally landed.
Zhao Liusi followed behind Zhao Qi, looking at his decisive and vigorous back, as if he finally understood where the sense of vigilance in his heart came from. Because this person's temperament and the harmlessness he showed were really inconsistent. Zhao Liu thought about the whole process of Zhao Qi's career that Park's mother told her. Being able to climb from an unknown person to your current position like that is not something that can be done just by having a good face and good luck, opportunities can be given by others, but whether you can stand up is your own problem.
What is the past of the person who holds on to the past? What was he afraid of?
Although Zhao Qi is the son-in-law of the Liu family, he has obviously been turned into an outsider by Liu Sheng, and the place where he lives is a little away from the main courtyard, and the location is closer to the guest room in the front yard and the residence in the back yard. Zhao Liusi had never been here, and when Zhao Qi returned to her residence, she jumped up the wall and was surprised to find that there was still a man standing in the courtyard.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, your Liu family's residence is still in this courtyard," the man was admiring the moon with his back to the door, and he didn't turn his head when he saw Zhao Qi coming back, but just smiled leisurely, and his tone was calm, so that people couldn't tell whether it was ridicule or ridicule for a while.
"This is the place where I first met Humble Jing, and it is also the place where I stayed at Liu's house, I am nostalgic for the old and like the old residence, it shouldn't be in your way." Zhao Qi is not so good-tempered, he opened his mouth to reply, but the medicinal taste is cautious.
"People often say that the son-in-law is a coquettish guest, but now it seems that it has been decades, and the Liu family still treats you as a guest, you are really willing." The visitor said with a smile, and the provocative feeling was beyond words.
"You're not here to talk this nonsense, are you?" Zhao Qi didn't take the bait so easily, he replied coldly, "I'm not willing to care about you, our friendship is not good enough to talk about this kind of problem." If you comment on my Yue's family without permission, don't blame me for turning your face. ”
"If there's nothing to do, let's leave early." Zhao Qi unceremoniously ordered the eviction of the guest.
"Lord Zhao's temper is much bigger than it was 20 years ago." The visitor smiled, but didn't say anything strange. He turned his head, and Zhao Liusi found that he was wearing a silver mask on his face, with hideous patterns on it, and the style was not like the one commonly used in the Central Plains, but had some nomadic characteristics.
Because he couldn't see his face, Zhao Liusi was a little disappointed. Look at this person's figure, slightly lower than Zhao Qi, he is also an ordinary figure who is not short, and his clothes are even more ordinary, if he goes out and takes off his mask, he should be able to hide perfectly in the crowd.
"Did you find what I wanted?"
"I've said it many times, there's nothing you want," Zhao Qi was a little irritated. "I've always been safe, this matter has been cleaned up back then, if someone says that he has evidence, he must be lying to you, don't be tricked."
"If it's really clean, how can there be so many strange things this year? I heard that Aunt Qian in your house is gone. The visitor smiled disapprovingly, and raised his hand to stop Zhao Qi when he was about to open his mouth to refute.
"Lord Zhao, I'm not interested in listening to your quibbles. We are not old friends, we are just former partners, and this matter is said to be related to the future of my master, but in fact it is more important to you. After all, you should know very well what the status of my master is, right? When this thing broke out, no one dared to guess him, but you are different. ”
The tone of the person who came was gentle, but the meaning of the words made people tremble, ""
"You know better than I the reason why you are in this position now. If you can't even do a good job of sweeping the tail, then why should we help you? ”
"To the Lord, he does not allow anyone to hurt him."
"People who have no value, what will happen to them, you should know better than me".
The man smiled, then leaped like a big bird to the roof of the house and jumped away.
It was the first time Zhao Liusi had seen this kind of martial arts master, and he was shocked at the moment. Fortunately, she is a cat, otherwise if she dares to get so close to eavesdropping, she will definitely be killed.
The man was gone, Zhao Qi was in place, angry and frightened, Zhao Liusi jumped off the eaves when he saw this, tiptoed to his side, and heard Zhao Qi sit there paralyzed, muttering to himself, "Impossible...... It's impossible to find out about that...... That thing was done by Fanren...... Those people are already dead, Hu Erniu is also dead, who else in the world can know about this? ”
"Could it be that Liu Sheng really found something?"
When Zhao Liusi heard this, he sighed in his heart. These days, they are all worried about who killed Hu Erniu, and now it seems that this matter is Zhao Qi's handiwork.
No wonder the timing of his appearance that day was so coincidental. But the question arises again, if he wants to kill Hu Erniu, he only needs to assassinate him secretly behind his back, why do he send invitations everywhere with great fanfare, gather everyone together, and then send someone to kill Hu Erniu in the middle?
If he makes a big deal out of this, what good is it for him?
Zhao Liu was puzzled, thought about it and decided to keep this question and wait until he saw Yan Ran.
By the way, tomorrow I will say that she is unwell, she needs to see a doctor, and she will find the doctor who diagnosed her in the car that day, and then let that person pass the news to Yan Ran. Zhao Liusi was planning psychologically, thinking that he could take the opportunity to ask Liu Sheng how he was recovering, and his mood couldn't help but be a little lighter.
Zhao Qi sat in place for a while, then staggered up and went back to the house to sleep. Zhao Liusi followed up to see him with his head covered in the quilt, and after a while, he made a snoring sound, and felt tasteless, so he turned around and left.
Zhao Liusi was not very sad about the fact that Zhao Qi was a bad person, after all, he was not her father, and the two did not have much affection, even if it was a real second lady, she was very vague about this father.
She went to the study to look around, trying to dig through the ledger, but found that her claws were too sharp to scratch the paper, so she had to put this aside in advance, planning to come in in human form another day to look for something. Anyway, she is the owner of the Liu family, and Liu Sheng is not there, so she should look at the account book. People outside think he can't understand it, and most of them won't stop it.
Zhao Liusi happily walked towards his residence, and before he entered the door, he was startled by the sound of jingling bells inside. What's going on? Why is there such a strange sound in her room, could it be that Mother Park and the others have found someone to dance the great god to exorcise evil spirits for him?
She ran into the house in a panic, only to find Xiaobai leaning on the head of the bed, and there were several people in front of the window, holding erhu and playing drums, babbling and singing to her.
What kind of operation is this? Zhao Liusi was dissatisfied and meowed at the little white on the bed. Xiaobai was swaying and humming, listening to the cat suddenly come back to his senses, and quickly put on a cold face to reprimand everyone, "Get out, let me out!" ”
After studying for a long time, she could only say this sentence.
