The deadline is approaching

Previous Chapter

After Xiao Mei left, Xiao Qi lay on the bed and had nothing to do, thinking carefully about the things he had experienced in the past few days. I always feel that the things of the past few days are a bit unbelievable, as if in a dream, thinking that I am an unknown person who is involved in such a martial arts dispute. Although he was already in danger at the moment, Xiao Qi felt a little hearty pleasure, and it was not in vain to think that he could do something sensational in his lifetime.

Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, Xiao Qi was overjoyed, thinking that it was Xiaomei who went and returned, but listening to the heavy footsteps, it was obviously not the appearance of a young girl walking. At that moment, my heart sank, and I thought that it was Sima Dengkui who came. Xiao Qi didn't think it was a big deal, he didn't move while lying on the bed, thinking that when Sima Dengkui came, I pretended to be asleep and ignored him, so that his dignified green wolf leader would also lose face. As soon as the door opened, I heard someone coming in, but someone was squirming to clean up the dishes and chopsticks on the table.

Xiao Qi turned around and looked, it turned out to be the old man who had been delivering food for the past few days. The old man was about to leave after cleaning up, when Xiao Qi got out of bed and stopped him.

Xiao Qi said to the old man: "Old uncle, I know they won't let you talk to me, and I also know that you are not a bad person"

Xiao Qi almost pleaded and said: "I don't want you to be embarrassed, but I know that your big boss is back, and my days are numbered, I beg you to help me inquire about Xiaomei's situation, she went to her uncle to intercede for me, I am afraid that her uncle will not be good for her"

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he thought that Sima Dengkui was Xiao Mei's uncle after all, even if he didn't agree to Xiao Mei's request, it would not be unfavorable to Xiao Mei. But because he was too worried, he spoke more seriously, trying to impress the lame old man.

The old man had an unmoved expression.

Xiao Qi sighed and said, "Hey, old uncle, I don't embarrass you anymore, you can go."

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, his expression darkened.

The old man walked to the door, suddenly turned around, and said to Xiao Qi: "After a while, you will quarrel with the guards at the door to ask for wine, and they will let me come again."

Xiao Qi was grateful, but after all, he didn't open his mouth again, and nodded heavily at the old man.

Xiao Qi waited for an hour, and then began to make a lot of noise, asking the guards for wine. The guards knew that this kid was the "medicine primer" of the big boss, so although he was reluctant, he still asked the old man who delivered the meal to quickly buy wine and food and send them.

As soon as the old man entered the door, Xiao Qi quickly closed the door and couldn't wait to ask, "Old uncle, how is the situation?"

The old man just shook his head at first, unable to stand Xiao Qi's questioning, so he said: "I don't know much about the specific situation, I went to the council hall when I went out of you just now, and I saw the eldest lady and the big boss talking in the council hall, I was afraid of being discovered by them, so I didn't dare to get too close, and I couldn't hear clearly from afar."

Xiao Qi was anxious and asked, "And then?"

The old man continued: "I only heard that the eldest lady and the big boss seemed to quarrel later, and after a while, the second, third and fourth masters came together to find the big boss, and I saw the eldest lady crying and running back to her house. Before leaving, the eldest lady said to the big boss, "If you don't agree, I'd rather die"..."

Xiao Qi's heart sank at the moment, not because Sima Dengkui refused to let go of himself and felt uncomfortable, but because he heard Xiaomei crying, he felt uncomfortable. Thinking that Xiaomei could "rather die" in order to intercede for herself, she was moved again.

I heard the old man say again, "I originally wanted to go to the eldest lady to find out the news, but I didn't dare to go for fear of being seen." Hey, it's all my fault that this lame old man has no ability!"

Xiao Qi saw that the old man said sincerely, and hurriedly said: "Old uncle, don't say that, I have to thank you!"

The old man shook his head and sighed, then stopped talking, but took care of himself and set the table with food and drink, and withdrew.

Xiao Qi didn't have any appetite, but he thought that if he didn't eat a bite, he would be seen by others, wouldn't it hurt the old man who delivered the food?

Thinking of this, he picked up the wine jug, poured most of the jug of wine in one go, and lay on the bed dizzily, hoping that the sky was about to dawn and Xiaomei could come to him.
