Chapter Fifty-Six: A Safe Return
The big farmer in the last days is stormy
From the moment when Ji'er was kidnapped, and Li Ba went to rescue alone. Everyone in the Harvest Trading Company is like losing their backbone and is uneasy.
"Go back to your post and work"
Zhou Yan kept in mind Li Ba's instructions before leaving, took care of the firm, and waited for them to come back safely.
Everyone silently complied, returned to their posts, and adhered to their duties.
There has never been a day when it feels like time has passed so long. The doors opened, but business was still booming. After receiving the food stamps, Zhou Yan did not have the slightest joy, and her heart had already been empty with Li Ba's departure.
Her feelings for Li Ba have always been vague, not love, but more gratitude, and the resonance of sympathy. Since her husband's death, she thought that she would not love again, even if she met Li Ba, she was willing to give her body to repay the other party for saving her life, but love, it is difficult to say.
It wasn't until the moment of loss that she realized that she had already unconsciously fallen in love with this man who didn't look like a good person.
"Fatty, you must come back, you must come back safely"
I felt like I wanted to cry. Zhou Yan prayed over and over again.
It's already getting dark.
Store proofing. The food stalls were lit up, and the table was full of wine and food, all of which were cooked by Zhou Yan herself, making Li Ba's favorite dishes on weekdays. She stood at the intersection, her eyes full of anticipation, hoping to see the familiar figure return.
In addition to Zhou Yan, there is also Liang Jing, who is also standing silently at the intersection. Shortly after her boss left, she found that her brother was missing and could not be found.
She was silent. She knew that her younger brother must have secretly followed the boss out of the city to save the young lady.
"Sister, from today onwards, my life belongs to the boss and the lady"
It was the first night in the city, and she slept in a warm bed, and her brother said a word to her. She knows her brother's character best in her heart, and if she says it, she will definitely do it.
"Xiaojie, you did the right thing, no matter what the ending is, my sister will always support you"
Liang Jing muttered silently.
It's getting darker. Everyone's hearts are getting more and more desperate.
Until a certain moment, Zhou Yan finally couldn't support it anymore, squatted on the ground, hugged her head and cried. For a whole day, if Li Ba and Ji'er were well, they should have gone home a long time ago.
Zhao Hongyun took a few puffs, threw away the cigarette butt, raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, follow me out of the city to find the boss"
The nine-man security team immediately boarded the tricycle and prepared to leave the city. They asked for this more than once today, but they were all stopped by Zhou Yan. At this point, there is no need to wait. They have to go out of the city at night to search for the whereabouts of the boss and the young lady.
"Let's go too"
Dafang Xiaofang followed. They were all resolute and resolute, without the slightest retreat.
This time, Zhou Yan didn't stop her, she was already heartbroken and couldn't take too much care of it.
Just when Zhao Hongyun was about to ignite the fire, two blazing white headlights lit up in the distance, accompanied by a crisp whistle.
"This is the Buick Business, this is the Buick Business Horn I bought"
Dafang's ears were pointed, and he could hear it at once, and the sound of the horn was exactly the same as the Buick business he had just bought.
"It's the boss the boss is back"
He jumped out of the carriage at once, shouting loudly, his face full of excitement and surprise.
Zhou Yan stood up. Foolishly looking at the oncoming lights, his eyes unblinking. Everyone came to her, full of anticipation and hope.
The lights go from far to near. After a screeching brake, the car stopped at the intersection of the storefront, and the familiar voice came.
"I'm sorry, I came back a little late, so I worried everyone"
A large bald head peeked out of the broken window. At the same time, there are two little heads, both with smiles, looking at everyone.
"The boss is back"
"And Miss"
"Hey, why is Xiaojie in the car?"
Everyone gathered around. They saw that the car windows were all shattered, the boss's face was mottled with blood, and Liang Jie's right leg pants were stained with blood, and they were all palpitating.
"Little Jay"
Liang Jing hugged her younger brother, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.
"Sister, I'm fine, it's just a little scratched." Liang Jie said. He seemed to be deliberately suppressed, and his tone was very low and soft.
Zhou Yan came to Li Ba, didn't say a word, and went directly to tiptoe and kiss.
"I rely on a strong kiss to Lao Tzu"
Li Ba was stunned. Immediately reacted, and his tongue stretched out.
"Whew"
The nine-member security team, one by one, howled and howled wolves. Along with it, there was also a discordant sound.
"You, what are you doing?"
There is no doubt that there is no one else except Ji'er.
Li Ba didn't say much about the rescue of Ji'er. I just repeatedly told my employees not to spread today's events, as if it hadn't happened.
The owner treats people well. Whether it was the nine-member security team or the newly recruited women, they all nodded their heads.
After eating, Li Ba called Zhou Yan, Zhao Hongyun, and the four of them to the office. As soon as she entered the door, Zhou Yan immediately asked, "Fatty, have those people solved it?"
Li Ba made a gesture to wipe his neck, and said, "Kill them all, not one is left"
Zhou Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had already predicted the result, she still felt extremely relaxed when she said it from Li Ba's mouth.
"You are all people I trust. What happened today is not trivial, not to mention anything else, just Li Chao and Xue Lin, one is a member of the evolutionary team, and the other has an official background in the settlement. Now that they've all been killed by me, it's going to be annoying to spread the word."
At this point, Li Ba's tone became solemn, and he continued: "I called you over because I wanted you to go back and tell others a few more words, and don't leak this matter. Otherwise, the consequences are unpredictable. ”
"Don't worry, boss, my brothers will definitely not be a problem." Zhao Hongyun patted his chest and promised.
Zhou Yan then said: "The newly recruited employees don't talk much, I will watch them closely, and there will be no mistakes."
"It's best this way"
Li Ba nodded. Subsequently, he explained that he was generous and small, and moved out of his villa from tonight to live next door. The vacated room was given to Liang Jie.
No opinion on the generous and small side. Originally, they didn't live much in the villa, and since the opening of the trading house, they have been on duty at the store basically every night.
"It's not early, let's all go back and rest, and we have to get up early tomorrow to work"
Under Li Ba's orders, everyone left. Zhou Yan was the last to go out, secretly handed Li Ba a look, opened her seductive red lips, and said silently: "Go to me tonight"
Li Ba was energetic when he heard it. Then, as if he remembered something, he replied with a bitter face: "Not tonight, I have to treat Xiaojie's injury tomorrow no matter whether it is day or night, the master is always there to shout"
Others have gone far.
Zhou Yan twisted her waist after hearing this, and dropped a sentence: "If you don't come, it will be invalid if you expire", and walked away with high heels.
Li Ba slapped his head, bared his teeth, and thought about it for a long time, but he still didn't follow. Tonight, he has something very important to do.
"Little girl, I don't believe that after tonight, you really don't let Lao Tzu go to bed"
He smiled and walked towards his villa.
Back home, Dafang Xiaofang had already vacated the room. Not long after, Liang Jing's sister and brother came with their bags. In the last days, they don't have much possessions, and they only have a few clothes in their bags.
"Old, boss, can I come and live with Xiaojie?"
Liang Jing was worried about her younger brother and made this request.
"Xiaojie is very good, the boss I am optimistic about him, and I want to focus on cultivating him by letting him come to live." Li Ba took a puff of his cigarette and continued: "He is a man, he will grow up day by day and become your dependence, not for you to protect him"
Li Ba's meaning is obvious. Although Liang Jing was a little disappointed, it was not easy to talk about it.
"Sister, from today onwards, I will protect you" Liang Jie clenched his fists, and his little face revealed extremely resoluteness.
With the words of his younger brother, Liang Jing was moved in her heart, even if she suffered a lot before, it was worth it.
After Liang Jing simply cleaned up the room and left. Li Ba called Yan'er and Liang Jie to his room.
"Xiaojie, didn't tell your sister," Li Ba looked at Liang Jie and asked.
"Nope." Liang Jie shook his head, and then, with some hesitation, said: "Boss, in fact, I really want to tell my sister that I have become an evolutionary and have enough strength to protect her."
"It's not the time yet."
Li Ba comforted: "You and Ji'er have just become evolutionaries, and their abilities are still very weak. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is not too late to announce it to the public when you grow up."
"Okay." Liang Jie nodded. He believed in the boss's words and absolutely obeyed them.
After Ji'er and Liang Jie were poisoned by corpses, they were later resolved by the spiritual spring, and after being blessed by misfortune, they awakened their abilities and became evolutionaries. Li Ba let them practice for a long time, and only after they could control their awakened abilities did they take them back to the city.
Because of this, he came back late, which made Zhou Yan and others worried.
The awakening of the two little guys to become evolutionaries is tantamount to a big surprise for Li Ba. Their loyalty to themselves is unquestionable. Therefore, Li Ba decided to focus on cultivation.
"This is the crystal nucleus, which can increase the strength of the evolutionary."
Li Ba took out a handful of crystal nuclei, which had more than twenty grains, and distributed them to Ji'er and Liang Jie, so that they could try to absorb the energy contained in the crystal nucleus.
The two little ones did as they were said and sat on the bed. Each held a crystal nucleus in their hands and began to try to absorb it.
At most, it will be about ten minutes. Ji'er was the first to spread out her little hand, and the crystal nucleus held in her palm had turned into powder and fell to the ground.
"How do you feel," Li Ba asked eagerly.
Ji'er tilted her little head and thought for a while, and replied: "Uncle, the airflow in my body seems to have grown a little stronger."
Subsequently, Liang Jie also absorbed a crystal nucleus. The result is exactly the same as that of Ji'er.
"The zombie crystal nucleus can really strengthen the ability of the evolutionary"
Li Ba nodded secretly. They were then instructed to continue absorbing the crystal nucleus and not to stop.
