Chapter 173
Hu Wei grabbed the girl's neck and threw her to the ground.
Lin Xiaoqi could see that the girl’s face was covered with scars, and her eyes were so scared that she didn’t dare look at Hu Wei.
"This is the price! If you don't write music, what right do you have to live!" Hu Wei laughed contemptuously, "How stupid!"
Hu Wei picked up a whip from the side. Lin Xiaoqi could clearly see that the whip was covered with rows of sharp spikes.
The girl saw the whip and trembled with fear: "Boss Hu! Please! Let me go! Please!"
Hu Wei swung the whip in his hand fiercely, and the whip quickly lashed towards the girl's back.
"Humph! Those who haven't written a song have no right to beg for mercy!"
Lin Xiaoqi's eyes were wide open with anger, she clenched her fists tightly, trying her best to suppress her emotions.
She saw that the girl's back was immediately covered with bloodstains after being whipped.
"Ah!" Tears welled up from the girl's eyes in pain.
Lin Xiaoqi is particularly annoyed now.
What on earth motivated Hu Wei to treat a girl like this!
Lin Xiaoqi took a deep breath and continued reading.
Hu Wei's beating lasted for about half an hour. Half an hour later, when the girl fainted from the pain, Hu Wei suddenly poured a large basin of salt water on her back.
The girl cried out in pain.
This is...rubbing salt into the wound!
Lin Xiaoqi bit her lower lip. She watched Hu Wei dragging the girl who was awakened by the pain of salt water back. She hurriedly controlled the monitoring insects to come down, one stayed here, and the other stayed in the dungeon.
Lin Xiaoqi found the best vantage point to observe the girls' and Hu Wei's movements.
Lin Xiaoqi now has his suspicions confirmed: this Hu Wei is indeed an extreme psychopath!
Lin Xiaoqi took a deep breath and tried her best to control her emotions. She closed the computer and put it in her pocket.
She closed her eyes, and when she opened them she had concealed her emotions very well.
She walked downstairs and saw Lin Xining typing on the computer.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Lin Xiaoqi asked.
"Finance." Lin Xining's computer screen was showing a series of stock market data.
Lin Xiaoqi took the mouse and looked at the stocks one by one, and then said to Lin Xining: "It is recommended to withdraw from this stock, and it is recommended to continue to invest in this stock."
"I'll listen to you this time." Although Lin Xining was skeptical, he felt that she would definitely not joke about such a thing.
"Tell me what's the matter." After Lin Xining finished the operation, he looked at Lin Xiaoqi, "If someone is too attentive to you for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."
Lin Xiaoqi chuckled: "Big brother actually noticed it. I have made progress."
"Let's talk business." Lin Xining rolled his eyes at him.
"Give me Zhong Keqing's phone number." Lin Xiaoqi smiled ingratiatingly at Lin Xining.
After all, Zhong Kewen is her sister.
"Why?" Lin Xining knew something bad was going to happen when he saw Lin Xiaoqi's flattering smile.
"You'll know in a few days." Lin Xiaoqi smiled slightly.
Lin Xining raised his eyebrows: "Then you have to promise me that you won't destroy the relationship between me and Qingqing."
Lin Xiaoqi chuckled: "What kind of relationship are you trying to destroy? You haven't caught up with her in six years. You are such a failure."
"What do you care!" Lin Xining pretended to knock Lin Xiaoqi on the forehead, but Lin Xiaoqi dodged him.
Lin Xiaoqi said seriously: "Okay, I promise, I won't destroy the tiny connection between you and Zhong Keqing."
"Speak properly! What do you mean by insignificant?" Lin Xining rolled his eyes at her, wrote down a phone number on a sticky note on the side, and handed it to Lin Xiaoqi: "Here."
"Thank you, big brother!" Lin Xiaoqi took the note and skipped upstairs.
Lin Xining looked at his little sister's heartless appearance and shook his head helplessly.
This girl... I hope she doesn't cause trouble for herself.
Zhong Keqing... Lin Xining's eyes rippled when he thought of Zhong Keqing.
Thinking of the girl's profile, Lin Xining helplessly recalled his long journey of pursuing his wife.
Now I and Qin Chenyi are in the same boat.
At this moment, on the third floor.
Lin Xiaoqi called Zhong Keqing immediately.
"Hello?" Zhong Keqing answered the phone quickly.
"Are you Zhong Keqing?" Lin Xiaoqi asked first.
"Yes, it's me. Who are you?" Zhong Keqing on the opposite side was obviously a little confused by the unfamiliar voice.
"I'm Lin Xiaoqi." Lin Xiaoqi stated her identity.
"Lin Xiaoqi..." The other party was obviously thinking, "Are you Lin Xining's sister?"
"Yeah." Lin Xiaoqi said with a smile.
"Are you here... to bring us together?" Zhong Keqing paused and asked.
"Uh... no, but I really want to ask, why do you ask me this question?" Lin Xiaoqi asked.
"Because your grandmother and your mother have come here just for this matter." There was some impatience in Zhong Keqing's tone.
"So what do you personally think of my brother?" Lin Xiaoqi blinked.
"Your brother is a good person, but we are not suitable for each other..." Zhong Keqing realized that she had said too much, and she changed the subject, "If you are not here to bring us together, then what are you here for?"
Lin Xiaoqi said softly: "I came to talk to you about...your sister Zhong Kewen's matter."
There was an obvious pause of a few seconds on the other end, and Lin Xiaoqi could tell that when the other party picked up the phone to speak again, there was an obvious tearful tone in his voice.
"Have you met my sister?"
"I guess so." Lin Xiaoqi remembered the scene of Zhong Kewen holding the surveillance bug and chatting with him, and answered casually.
"Where is she!" Zhong Keqing raised her voice noticeably.
"Well... let's not talk about this for now. Zhong Keqing, can you tell me more about your sister?" Lin Xiaoqi asked.
"Okay, I'll tell you." Zhong Keqing took a deep breath. "My sister's name is Zhong Kewen. She is four years younger than me. We are biological sisters. Our mother is a military doctor and died of cancer very early. My father also drank all day and disappeared later. At that time, I was fourteen years old and my sister was ten years old. My sister and I depended on each other and could only live on the relief money given by the government. It was not until I went to high school that I had the spare time to work part-time to save money for my sister and my college tuition. I also tried my best to get a scholarship in college. Life was originally smooth sailing, but later, about two years ago, my sister was a little genius who was particularly good at composing. She said that she felt sorry for me working and studying so late every day. She said that she could also use the copyright of the song to earn tuition, but later she went to meet the boss who bought her copyright and never came back. I called the police, but even the police couldn't find my sister. I haven't seen my sister for two years. I don't know if she is doing well."
