Chapter 21: Both of them are weird
"Pei Xingzhi is my husband. Should I protect you instead of him?"
Looking at Qin Wushuang's suppressed anger, Qin Song raised the corner of his mouth in sarcasm, really puzzled: "I have been kicked out of the Qin family, and I have nothing to do with you Qin family. Who I protect, who I am with, whether I live a rich or poor life, these are none of your concern."
"Don't be too possessive of my life. It makes you look crazy."
As Qin Song spoke, his expression slowly calmed down, and only coldness remained in his eyes.
"open!"
Qin Wushuang stared at her intently, not only did he not let go, but he held her even tighter.
Qin Song obviously felt the pain, and he could no longer bear it and cursed Qin Wushuang: "Are you sick? I'm not your sister anymore, but you still won't let me go? You have to chase me and kill me, right?"
Qin Wushuang's lips moved slightly, and a gloomy smile appeared on his face: "It is precisely because you are not my sister anymore that I will not let you go."
Qin Song was horrified: "You..."
"Boss Qin."
Pei Xingzhi's voice suddenly rang out, breaking the depression created by Qin Wushuang.
Qin Song turned around when he heard the voice, and smiled when he saw Pei Xingzhi, with his eyebrows curved and his eyes gentle. It was as if the indifference and sharpness towards Qin Wushuang just now were all an illusion.
Qin Wushuang looked at her in astonishment, and his whole body froze instantly.
Pei Xingzhi came over and grasped Qin Song's wrist with his bony hand neither lightly nor heavily, blocking Qin Song behind him and preventing Qin Wushuang from spying viciously.
"Boss Qin." Pei Xingzhi smiled, but his eyes were cold. "Please let go of my wife."
"..." Qin Wushuang didn't say anything, but the strength in his hands was relaxing little by little.
Qin Song noticed it and immediately pulled his hand out, not hiding the annoyance on his face.
Pei Xingzhi raised his glasses, and his eyes behind the lenses glanced at Qin Wushuang calmly, with a hint of danger in his eyes.
He had some guesses in his mind, but said nothing. He just turned around, carefully checked Qin Song, and asked worriedly: "Are you okay?"
Qin Song shook his head: "I'm fine, why are you here?"
Pei Xingzhi smiled at her: "I'll explain it to you later."
Qin Song: "Oh."
Pei Xingzhi lifted her hand and frowned as he looked at the red marks on her wrist left by Qin Wushuang.
"Has my wife offended you in any way?"
He rubbed the red mark soothingly with his thumb, and didn't even look at the Qin family when he asked this question.
“…”
No one behind me answered.
Qin Wushuang still stared at Qin Song, while Qin Sisi held Qin Wushuang's arm, pursed her lips and avoided his gaze.
Li Rumeng and another follower stared at each other. Their mouths, which had been eloquent just a moment ago, were now unable to utter a single word.
Pei Xingzhi waited for a while, but when they didn't speak, he turned around and looked at them.
"Why aren't you talking? Is it because my wife has offended you so much that you don't know which one to talk about first, or is it because my wife has never offended you at all?"
"...Boss Pei." Qin Sisi smiled and spoke first, "It's not as serious as you think. We just happened to run into Qin Song while shopping, so we pulled her aside and talked to her for a few words."
"Yeah?"
Pei Xingzhi ignored her and turned his head to ask Qin Song.
Qin Song didn't want to get entangled with them, and just said: "It doesn't matter whether it is or not. I'm not familiar with them, so there's no point in getting entangled in these things."
"Xingzhi, let's go home. I'm hungry."
Pei Xingzhi was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Okay."
Since Qin Song said so, he doesn't need to waste time with these people. He took Qin Song's hand, without saying a word, and turned around and left with Qin Song.
Qin Wushuang stared at the two intimate figures in silence, and his breathing suddenly became rapid.
"...leaving now?" Li Rumeng looked at the other follower with a somewhat surprised expression, "This, this is not like Qin Song's usual style?"
The attendant looked at Qin Song walking away, with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "...Why do I feel that Qin Song seems to have become a different person? Her words and actions seem to be completely different from before."
Li Rumeng narrowed her eyes alertly: "Could it be that she really repented as the rumors say?"
The follower thought about it, then nodded heavily: "It's very likely!"
"Repent..." Qin Sisi pondered over these two words and turned to look at Qin Wushuang, "Brother, do you think Qin Song will really repent?"
"..." Qin Wushuang still didn't speak.
Ever since Pei Xingzhi showed up and took Qin Song away, he hasn't said a word.
Qin Sisi frowned and looked at him, thinking that he looked weird. But Qin Sisi couldn't tell exactly what was so strange about it.
"I was just selling a necklace, who knew I would run into them? It's so unlucky..."
Qin Song told Pei Xingzhi the whole story, without hiding any details.
Pei Xingzhi listened and gently squeezed her wrist: "Next time you go out to sell things, remember to send me a message in advance. Although I'm busy with work, I can still come and accompany you."
"The Qin family is not a good family. They were a little bit cautious when I was not bankrupt, but now that I am bankrupt, they don't have to be afraid of anything. You have a grudge against them, and I am worried that they will retaliate against you."
Speaking of bankruptcy, Qin Song suddenly thought of a question.
She grabbed Pei Xingzhi's wrist with her backhand and spoke in a rare serious tone: "Xingzhi, do you know the real reason why your company went bankrupt?"
Pei Xingzhi: “I know.”
Qin Song's eyes suddenly widened.
Pei Xingzhi raised his eyes and looked at the scattered clouds in the distant sky.
"I didn't know people well enough, and I was tricked."
"Who?" Qin Song asked.
Pei Xingzhi: "Fang Bo."
"Ah?" Qin Song had never heard of this name.
Pei Xingzhi explained, "Fang Bo was my college roommate and we had a very good relationship. He helped me found Pei Group. I trusted him very much and not only gave him shares in the company, but also let him participate in all the confidential matters of the company. However, he took advantage of his position to embezzle the company's assets. By the time I discovered the problem, the company's accounts were completely empty, and I had no way of filling the billions of dollars of loopholes."
Qin Song: "Where is this Fang Bo now?"
Pei Xingzhi: "He ran away abroad a long time ago. I sent people to look for him for more than a month, and just a few days ago I received information saying that he went to Myanmar."
"...Is he the only one who caused your bankruptcy?" Qin Song asked politely, "Besides him, are there any other people involved?"
Pei Xingzhi said truthfully: "I don't know. All the information I have so far points to Fang Bo, and I haven't found any evidence that anyone else did it."
Didn’t find…
In other words, Pei Xingzhi had no idea that the real culprits who caused him bankruptcy were Lu Yibai and Qin Sisi!
