Chapter 82: Savage_1
"You don’t understand," Qi Jingyi shook his head. "The refusal is because there hasn’t been a condition yet that has moved his heart..."
"To offer him his status back, high position and rich rewards, and even seek justice for him—could it be..."
But Qi Jingyi only smiled without answering. Some things were beyond Weng Ji’s comprehension. If that person desired, even if crippled or blind, he could still achieve fame and wealth on his own. His second brother had once hinted at his desires, but when he was framed, he didn’t ask for help. Instead, he used it to hide his identity, which proved what? It proved that he had long lost hope in that family. Therefore, regaining his identity was utterly unappealing to him. However, he had all the patience needed to unearth the bargaining chip that would move him.
Seeing that his master did not speak, Weng Ji did not ask any further.
"It’s not easy to get out and about," Qi Jingyi said as he stood up, putting down his wine cup. "I’ve heard that the girls of Baihua Building here are as beautiful as those in Beijing. Since we’re here, we should see for ourselves..."
Weng Ji’s mouth twitched, but he quickly followed. It was his duty to protect his master’s safety.
Meanwhile, Guan Qingshu took a kick to the stomach from Yang Ruxin. He could feel her force; it wasn’t just for show—she really didn’t hold back. Oh, it hurt... He could only bend over, clutching his stomach as he watched her leave, unable to describe the unpleasant feeling that overwhelmed him.
Yang Ruxin was also very upset. This man was despicable; when Yang Dani used to stick to him every day, he treated her like trash. Now that she couldn’t be bothered to pay him any attention, he turned around and clung to her. Such a person deserved a beating. The next time she saw him, she would beat him until he was searching the ground for his teeth, to let him truly understand why the flowers were so red.
Not far away, Gu Yao, who had been sent by Gu Qingheng to find Yang Dani, happened to witness this scene. His mouth twitched at that kick—he could almost feel the pain himself. That girl was fierce. He hurriedly turned around and headed back to the noodle shop ahead of time.
