"Really? Boss Jin sure is rich." A man's voice came from the side.
When Qiao Xuan heard this voice, she immediately became happy. She turned her head and saw Qi Chu walking towards them.
The man naturally saw it too. His expression changed, and he immediately let go of Qiao Xuan's hand. "Master Qi .."
Qi Chu had already walked in front of them, and said in his usual humble tone, "I thought Boss Jin didn't know who I am."
The man nodded and smiled awkwardly, "I thought she lied to me in the name of Young Master Qi."
Qi Chu no longer looked at him, and asked Qiao Xuan softly: "How are you, are you hurt?"
Qiao Xuan held onto her arm and shook her head. She didn't have time to argue with people who had nothing to do with her, "Master Qi, I'm looking for you.
Qi Chu nodded, and brought Qiao Xuan to the exit, and when he turned, he looked at the people beside him.
Just as they walked out of the clubhouse, a pig-slaughtering howl came from inside. Qiao Xuan instinctively wanted to turn around and look, but Qi Chu reached out to stop her, "Stop looking, it's fine, just teach him a lesson, let him know that he can't touch my person."
Qiao Xuan turned and looked at Qi Chu. His face was still calm and gentle, but the words he said caused her to shiver.
However, Qiao Xuan could understand, people with status like them had to have the ability to intimidate others.
Seeing them come out, Luo Jie quickly ran over. He was waiting anxiously outside and almost charged in.
"What is going on, why is Sheng Liang not here?" Qi Chu swept a glance across them and asked.
Qiao Xuan's expression darkened, and said dejectedly: "He told me that he had something to do, so he couldn't contact me anymore. I guessed that it had to do with Sheng Hua, so I wanted to ask if you know where he could have gone to."
Qi Chu's eyes turned, he was silent for a moment, then said: "If that's the case, then that's bad, Sheng Hua anxiously jumped over the wall, he is definitely waiting for him to fall into our trap."
Hearing his words, Qiao Xuan became even more worried: "Then what do we do?"
"How about this, I'll go and find a few friends on the streets to ask, to see if anyone knows where Sheng Hua's factory and warehouse is, I think Sheng Liang probably went to these places." Qi Chu said as he took out his phone to search for his number. Seeing them looking at him expectantly, he said, "You guys can go back first, I'll inform you guys when there's news."
Qiao Xuan wanted to say something, but seeing that Qi Chu was already on the phone, he walked towards his car.
"Miss Qiao, then let's return. This place is not safe." Luo Jie said to Qiao Xuan.
Staying behind would not help him in any way. Qiao Xuan nodded.
When the car had just driven out, a car suddenly stopped in front of them. Luo Jie was shocked, he braked abruptly and was unable to hit the car.
The person in the car opened the car door and got off. Using the light of the car lamps, Qiao Xuan saw that the person who was walking towards them was Sheng Qian.
He walked over to Qiao Xuan, opened the car door and pulled Qiao Xuan out without saying anything.
"Fourth Young Master, what are you doing?" Luo Jie also quickly got out of the car, and wanted to stop her.
Sheng Qian did not look at him, but still pulled Qiao Xuan and walked forward, while shouting, "This has nothing to do with you!"
"Sheng Qian, what are you doing? Where are you bringing me?" Qiao Xuan struggled for a while, but did not struggle free, and asked Sheng Qian.
"Don't look for Sheng Liang, follow me home." Sheng Qian's expression was completely different from usual, serious.
Qiao Xuan exerted his strength and shook off Sheng Qian's hand. He took a few steps back and said, "It's my business, you don't have to worry about who I look for. Also, like I said, you're not my type."
Sheng Qian looked at her as if he was helpless before laughing: "Qiao Xuan, why are you so naive? Do you really think Sheng Liang is some good trash?
Qiao Xuan lowered his eyebrows. "I know, it was my own will."
Sheng Qian did not express his astonishment, but continued on: "But you do not know, that the piece of evidence you obtained was not Sheng Hua's, but his."
Qiao Xuan's heart was moved, but he continued to persevere: "That has nothing to do with me."
Maybe Sheng Liang knew that someone would say all these in front of her before he confirmed it again and again, making her believe him.
Therefore, no matter what Sheng Qian said, Qiao Xuan would not believe him.
Sheng Qian let out a heavy sigh, "The medicine he gave you is really heavy. Qiao Xuan, your parents are in his hands, right? Don't tell me they're safe because he's not the one threatening you yet. Have you noticed the building opposite our company? Do you know who owns the new company? It's Sheng Liang, did he get a shock? When I first heard it today, I was also shocked, I really can't believe that he actually saved up such a big secret after enduring for so many years. "
Speaking of that building, Qiao Xuan remembered that Sheng Liang had been looking at that building during the meeting and asked if it was very spectacular.
Could it really be his?
"Qiao Xuan, don't you think that compared to Sheng Hua, he's actually more terrifying?" Seeing that Qiao Xuan was silent, Sheng Qian walked closer to her, "You'll soon know what he went to do tonight."
Qiao Xuan's fingers secretly clenched. She did not want to believe Sheng Qian's words, but there were many things just like what Sheng Qian had said. She had to admit that even now, she could not see through Sheng Liang.
When he went back, Qiao Xuan leaned on the car window, looking at the streets filled with neon lights. In this world filled with dog like voices and horses, was there any trust or true feelings between people?
"Miss Qiao, what did the fourth young master say to you?" Luo Jie sensed that Qiao Xuan was not in a good mood, and probed him with a question.
"Nothing." Qiao Xuan was still looking outside.
Luo Jie knew that something was up, but he opened his mouth and said nothing.
After returning home, Qiao Xuan directly went upstairs and closed the door to her room, she walked to the bookshelf and took down the half filled oil painting and laid it on the table. Scenes of her days in Europe appeared in her mind, especially the scene when he kissed her.
Qiao Xuan lifted his hand and slowly swiped his finger across the corner of his lips. It seemed as if his aura and temperature were still there.
After mixing the paint, she slowly drew. She would wait for Sheng Liang to come back, unless he personally told her personally, she would not believe that anyone would slander him.
But she did not expect Sheng Qian's words to be true. On the second day of the news, there was the news of Sheng Liang's detention.
Sheng Liang was charged with several counts of drug trafficking, smuggling, and killing. In front of the camera, he appeared to be slightly tired, but his eyes were still indifferent, and the expression on his face was still calm as usual.
As Qiao Xuan watched on, he unconsciously felt his heart ache. He should have expected this kind of situation, that's why he had arranged for Luo Jie to protect her before he left.
Then, he chose to take the risk alone.
