Chapter 393: Action (I)
Qiu Peng shook his head and said, "No need"
On the chaise longue, there are several brocade cushions, and the light quilt is also specially designed for this chaise longue, which looks fragrant and charming.
Qiu Peng felt a little embarrassed and wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he would have to keep his body in good shape at any time and be ready to go out at any time in the next few days, so he canceled the idea of refusal, and then said, "Thank you." ”
Qiu Peng was lying on the recliner and felt a sweet fragrance coming to his nose.
This chair was very comfortable, Qiu Peng closed his eyes, and felt extremely tired, and in the blink of an eye, he fell asleep.
This morning, Song Qi appeared in Dongfang Mansion again.
Since Lin Xue's disappearance, it has become her daily routine to visit Dongfang Mansion every day and ask about Lin Xue's latest news.
As soon as Song Qi walked into the door, he met a young man in his twenties, walking out of the mansion.
As soon as the young man saw Song Qi, he immediately walked over enthusiastically and said, "It turned out to be Song Qi's sister, we haven't seen each other for a long time." How's it going, you're really getting prettier lately. ”
As he spoke, he took two steps and cordially reached out to pat Song Qi's shoulder, Song Qi took half a step back, and seemed to inadvertently distance himself from him.
Song Qi recognized that he was Lin Xue's lobby brother, Dongfang Yi.
Song Qi frowned secretly in his heart, but his face was just cold.
Her dislike for Dongfang Yi is not only because Dongfang Yi always acts like a big brother in front of her, not only because when he was young, he often bullied her and Lin Xue, but also because Dongfang Yi is said to be not doing his job properly after he grows up, often wandering around outside, and not doing his job - these are irrelevant.
The most important thing is that Dongfang Yi is the eldest son of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Yan is not a long-term family, and he has no heirs.
In this way, according to the traditional inheritance custom, Dongfang Yi would have become the most likely candidate - if it weren't for Dongfang Yanli's choice of Lin Xue as the heir of the Dongfang family.
Although Dongfang Yi was very kind every time he saw Lin Xue and Song Qi, Song Qi could still feel the hypocrisy behind that smile very obviously.
Song Qi always feels that it doesn't matter if a person tells a lie, but don't say a sensual lie that even he doesn't believe.
But Dongfang Yi is such a person.
Dongfang Yi said with a smile: "Song Qimei has lost weight recently, so she has to take care of her body." This look makes people feel distressed. ”
Song Qi immediately felt goosebumps on her body, spreading, so uncomfortable, and hurriedly said, "Thank you for your concern." And he ran away as if he were fleeing.
When I came to Dongfang Yan's study, I saw Dongfang Yan sitting in front of the desk, not knowing what he was looking at in a daze.
Song Qi walked in and shouted, "Uncle." ”
Dongfang Yan glanced at Song Qi, closed the open text in front of him, and put it aside. Only then did he say with a smile on his face: "It turned out to be Song Qi." ”
Song Qi nodded and said, "Uncle, is there any news of Lin Xue?"
Dongfang Yan shook his head slightly, his face was worried, and said, "Not yet, it's been three days." ”
Song Qi glanced at Wen Jiàn on the Dongfang Yan table and said, "Uncle don't worry too much, Lin Xueji will definitely be fine." Come to think of it, the kidnapper is just trying to extort ransom, and he shouldn't hurt Lin Xue. ”
Dongfang Yan's face was heavy, and he nodded: "I hope so." After speaking, he lowered his head again, as if he wanted to look at the text.
Song Qi said playfully: "Uncle, take care of your body, I'll go see Aunt Gu Pei." ”
Dongfang Yantou didn't raise his head, waved his hand, and said, "Go ahead." It's good to go and see her, she hasn't been in a good relationship these days. ”
Song Qi saluted and walked out.
She went to the backyard to look for Gu Pei, but she secretly smiled smugly in her heart, thinking, "Uncle thinks that his little actions can be hidden from me? Every time I came to see him in the past, I never saw me come to close the file." What's more, the number on the cover of the dossier turned out to be an old file from a few years ago, and you can see that there is something wrong at a glance.
"It must be that Lin Xue has new news, Dongfang Yan is reluctant to sue me, for fear that I will make trouble from it. ”
Jin Yutong is Lin Xue's tutor, and treats Lin Xue like a daughter, it can be said that the people in this house care about Lin Xue the most except Dongfang Yan.
When Song Qi arrived, Jin Yutong was wiping her tears, Song Qi was very good at dealing with this fragile and simple woman, walked to Jin Yutong's side, handed over a handkerchief, and said happily: "Teacher Jin Yutong, with Lin Xue's news, you should be happy!"
Jin Yutong wiped her tears with a handkerchief, sobbed and said: "Lin Xue's girl's house fell into the hands of thieves, that's it" Speaking of this, she was stunned and asked in horror: "You, how do you know Lin Xue she"
Song Qi smiled slightly, sat beside Jin Yutong, hugged her shoulders affectionately, and said: "I haven't seen Lin Xue for a while, and when I came to the house to look for her today, I happened to bump into Uncle Dongfang reading a letter sent by a bad person, and Uncle Dongfang had no choice but to tell me the truth." He also told me that no one can talk about it except you, the teacher!"
Jin Yutong showed a sudden look, then sighed faintly, and said: "Yes, this matter has been hidden in my heart for two days, but no one can talk about it, it is really boring and worried!"
Song Qi also showed a sad face and said, "Yes, I don't know if my uncle can prepare the things requested by the kidnappers in time and exchange Lin Xue back safely." ”
Jin Yutong wiped away her tears again and said, "Although 30,000 blue stone coins is a lot of money, the Eastern Patriarch should be able to gather it in three days. ”
Song Qi thought to himself: "It turned out to be 30,000 blue stone coins, and the time limit is three days, so the exchange time is tomorrow." ”
But he said: "That's right, although three days is shorter, it's enough." I really don't know who these kidnappers are, but they can also do it to such a delicate and lovely Lin Xue. ”
Jin Yutong sniffled: "Didn't you read the letter? It's a group of thieves wandering around in the pavilion, they kill people and steal goods all day long, what else do they dare not do!"
Song Qi nodded again and again: "Of course I've seen it, but that's not accurate." If you don't have any background, wouldn't it be fatal to dare to kidnap the daughter of the patriarch of the Dongfang family? I'm worried that Uncle Dongfang will be in danger if he goes to trade!"
Jin Yutong seemed to have just thought of this, his face turned pale, and he said in horror: "Yes, yes! No wonder they chose the trading location in Baizhangpo in the east of the city!"
It's a desolate, dangerous place!"
Song Qi was overjoyed and thought, "Now it's okay, the location of the transaction is also known." ”
Jin Yutong stood up suddenly, and was about to go out in a hurry, and said in his mouth: "No, I want to sue the patriarch of Dongfang, and I must not fall for the evil of gangsters!"
Song Qi hurriedly pulled her up, helped her to the bed, asked her to sit down, and explained, "Teacher Jin Yutong, you don't have to worry about this. Do you think, we can all find such a trick, and Uncle Dongfang, who has always been strategic, would not have thought of it? I think he must have a way to deal with it. ”
Jin Yutong seemed to think of something, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Well, it's no wonder that early in the morning, the Yuyuan Hall Master and several personal guards were sent out by the Eastern Patriarch, saying that they wanted to survey the terrain!"
Song Qi comforted: "You can rest for a while, but don't come back safely when Lin Xue comes back safely, but you are sick." ”
Jin Yutong hadn't slept much in the past two days, and she had been very sleepy for a long time, and under Song Qi's comfort, she fell asleep after a while.
It's just that in his sleep, he seems to be still worried about Lin Xue's safety, and the muscles on his face occasionally twitch nervously.
Song Qi left quietly, and when she walked from the backyard to the front yard, she stopped by the garage to take a look.
There were always hundreds of chariots in the garage for supply, but at the moment, it was empty, leaving only Lin Xue's beloved Fire Phoenix and a dozen long-standing hovercars inside.
Song Qi nodded, thinking: "These cars are gone, it seems that the Dongfang Patriarch has sent his own soldiers out to survey the terrain of Baizhang Slope and make preparations and arrangements in advance." It's just that I always feel that something is wrong in my heart?"
