Chapter 315 Hybrid breeds such as mules
"Actually, we are the same kind, but you don't know it yet." Tang Bu Ci said this.
Ye Xiaomei's anxious heart beat violently several times:
"We are different. I am a human, and you may be a hybrid. It's like the horses and donkeys in my hometown. The hybrid is a mule. It has the body of a horse, but not as big as a horse. But there are also donkeys..."
"Stop, you're insulting me." Tang Bushi felt uncomfortable listening to her analogy, and the anger hidden in his eyes was exposed at once.
Ye Xiaomei stopped abruptly and put her hands on the cloth bag again while crossing her legs.
"That's different." Tang Buci put his hands on the armrests and turned the wheelchair around with his back to Ye Xiaomei:
"I asked someone to check Qin Rong. You may not know that she is the current person in charge of the human trafficking project at the institute. Why did she break the rules and choose you despite having a high school diploma for three years? Didn't you have any doubts?"
Ye Xiaomei's head buzzed. This guy has investigated it.
It's so scary. Even though he never leaves his house, doesn't have a TV, and his only means of communication is a landline phone, he has money and can find out a lot of information.
But Ye Xiaomei knew very well that she had just overheard it accidentally a while ago. It seemed that Tang Buci had already checked it and knew it earlier than her.
Ye Xiaomei was slightly startled. She did have a very subtle birthmark on her body, but she was the only one who knew about it. Even Ma Qijun had never noticed it.
"You're investigating me?"
Tang Buci took a deep breath and looked sideways at Ye Xiaomei, his eyes becoming particularly deep:
"I don't need to investigate you at all. I only investigated Qin Rong. Anyone with a brain can figure out why she has been keeping an eye on you for so long. Okay, I can understand that you don't know your own business yet.
Such a big incident happened at the Sanfu Hotel, and I have no choice but to ask you to take the blame. I am not asking you to take the blame without any confidence. I know you can get away with it. If I am exposed in front of the public, won't you capture me and make me a monster?"
Seeing the pain in his eyes, Ye Xiaomei's hands gradually relaxed:
"It's good that you have your reasons, but what if I don't handle it well and end up getting shot?"
"No, because your husband has a special status, those people are more afraid that you will make things worse. All of this is within my expectations."
At this moment, Tang Bushi could only suppress his anger about selling his restaurant and explain the matter clearly to the girl. Otherwise, if she got angry and revealed her life story to others, she would die in an even more ugly way.
Seeing that he was very sincere, Ye Xiaomei picked up the tea bowl and took a sip:
"Well, since you put it that way, I'll get straight to the point. What are your backgrounds?"
Tang Buci's subordinates covered their chests subconsciously, and finally felt relieved:
"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I don't know where I came from, and I also want to know who my parents are."
Ye Xiaomei had heard him say this before: "But who raised you before you became paralyzed?"
"A businessman named Tang." Tang said with a sigh, "When I was old enough to remember, my adoptive father suddenly became mute. He left a letter saying that he picked me up from Changshou Village when he was negotiating business. He passed away when I was probably in my teens, and left a lot of land deeds before he died."
"Is this house also owned by your adoptive father?" Ye Xiaomei looked at Tang Bushi suspiciously. As expected, her guess was right. This guy really came from Changshou Village.
"Yes, but I was a minor at that time and had no right of inheritance. I lived in Changshou Village until I became disabled. I got information about Changshou Village from a lot of ancient books and documents. I originally wanted to find out about my biological parents, but the more I looked, the more legends I found, and the more confused I became."
Tang Buci suddenly became extremely calm, forgetting about the fact that Haoxiang had sold the hotel:
"Of course I heard about Qin Rong a long time ago. It was because of my investigation into her that I learned of your existence. You also know what happened afterwards."
Ye Xiaomei saw that he didn't seem to be lying, but then again:
"You told me before about the thousand-year-old red maple tree, the white snake, and the black toad stone in Changshou Village. Did you read it in a book?"
"Not entirely. Almost all the older generation in Changshou Village know about this incident. However, as far as I know, only those who are still alive and over 200 years old know about it. The younger generation only knows about it because the elders passed it on by word of mouth, and it eventually became a legend."
Tang Buci spread his hands and acted like a big puppy: "Auntie, I've told you everything you want to know and don't want to know. Can we just forget about the cover-up?"
Ye Xiaomei shuddered suddenly before coming back to her senses:
"I sold your restaurant, so we're even, but..."
While Ye Xiaomei was hesitant to speak, Tang Bushi felt as if he had been electrocuted when he heard that the hotel had been sold.
If he hadn't been used to being alone and practicing his mind skills, he would have crushed the wheelchair with his bare hands.
"But what?" Tang Bu Ci pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled what he thought was the most disdainful smile in history.
"However, since you investigated Qin Rong a long time ago, do you know why they are studying human snakes?"
Tang Buci's pupils shrank, and an imperceptible alert flashed across his eyes. After a moment's silence, he squinted his eyes and smiled:
"I've only heard that the human-snake research base is a biological research institute. I don't know what useful things they want to find out from human-snakes, because the security is very strict. It's not a place where you can conduct in-depth investigations just by spending money." Tang Buci pursed his lips and thought for a moment before saying:
"It can be said that even if your husband uses military power, he has no right to interfere."
Ye Xiaomei was slightly stunned. So mysterious?
Tang Buci saw what she was thinking and continued, "But don't you have the right to do so?"
Ye Xiaomei turned around abruptly and shuddered, looking at Tang Buci with cold eyes - are you fucking talking like a human being?
Tang Buci cleared his throat, hesitated, and said with a premeditated look:
"How about we make a big deal?"
"What's the deal?" Ye Xiaomei poured a cup of tea and drank it to suppress her surprise. She really didn't know what the future would be like, but she also hoped to learn more about the mysterious human-smuggler.
Because she vaguely felt that there was an inexplicable connection between her and the origin of the soul living in her body.
Tang Buci sat up straight and said, "When you enter the research base, tell me the internal situation and you can name your own price." Then he started to act arrogantly, as if he had nothing but money.
Ye Xiaomei's pupils shrank: "Please don't go. After hearing what you said today, I really don't dare to go. Who knows what the purpose of their research is? For this matter, even if you give me the Tang family residence, it will be impossible."
Tang Buci's mouth twitched and he looked straight at Ye Xiaomei, his eyes revealing complex emotions.
