Chapter 158 Jiang Sheng, dying to prove his integrity?
The anger on He Rui's face faded, and he said with a wooden face, "Let go."
"Wow, your expression changes quickly." The man raised his eyebrows and smiled, then asked him jokingly, "Who was it that said he wanted to beat me up just now?"
He Rui suddenly remembered that his brother Ji seemed to have put a defensive trap on him, so he didn't have to worry about being kicked over.
Thinking of this, he became more confident, "Hit me! Lao Liu! Hit me in the face if you dare!
But if you really dare to hit me, my brother Ji will never let you go easily!
I am his most valued little brother! If you beat me up, you will never have a chance to be forgiven by him. Unless you are ready to dig a way out of the virus snow outside and leave here immediately..."
Ji Changqing, who had been walking downstairs with a cold face to catch the idiot because he couldn't bear to watch him being controlled by someone, had already reached the corridor on the second floor. However, after hearing what He Rui had just said, he stopped and stood outside, continuing to watch.
The man was speechless and said, "Who wants to hit you?" and let the person go.
He Rui quickly stepped back a few meters and tried to persuade the other party, "Go and apologize quickly, and ask for forgiveness. My brother Ji might be soft-hearted and we can move on.
I don't want to make things irreversible. There are no doors in this library. You just locked me up, and if I just shouted at the microphone, my brother Ji would come down and beat you up."
"The boss is better than you?" the other party asked.
"Of course, my brother Ji is awesome."
"Then why do you believe him and not me? If he is very strong, how do you think I can bully him?"
He Rui explained, "Brother, speak with your conscience. You and Brother Ji are on the same side. I think even a dog would choose to believe him instead of you. His integrity is so high.
Look at yourself again, how many truths do you tell? My brother Ji has never lied to me, but you, you cheated us as soon as you arrived. I don’t believe you, I believe you.”
"....." He saw the other party pondering for a while, then suddenly changed the subject and asked, "How powerful is that person?"
He Rui choked up. Facing Lao Liu's inquiries, he said vaguely, "Anyway, he's very powerful..."
The man narrowed his eyes and said to him meaningfully, "I noticed when I came here that the library was completely empty. There weren't even any shelves on the second, third, fourth, and fifth floors... How come the entire library has been emptied of books and shelves? Did you do this?"
He Rui was stunned for a moment, completely unaware of this oversight. He pretended to be confused and said, "This...this I don't know. What could have happened? It was like this before we came here. I don't know what happened. Is it because it's too cold? Someone took it away and burned it for firewood to keep warm?"
"Haha, but I'm observing the dust marks on the floor. It's obvious that the bookshelves that were originally placed here disappeared not long ago before I came here. And there are no footprints around the bookshelves. So how did you manage to move all the bookshelves and books in this library without leaving any footprints? Brother, give me an explanation."
"What explanation? What are you talking about? I don't know either. I really don't know. It was like that when my brother Ji and I came here." He Rui pretended to be ignorant.
"Oh, and when I ran upstairs, I only saw one person's footprints. Those footprints should be yours... So why doesn't your brother Ji leave footprints when he walks? Doesn't his feet step directly on the ground, huh?"
He Rui thought that he didn't even know about this.
"...Brother, what you said makes me panic. My brother Ji is not a ghost. Did you see it wrong? Don't tell me you are presbyopic at such a young age. What is your eyesight..."
Lao Liu looked at his expression carefully and said, "Don't talk nonsense to me. Isn't your brother Ji very powerful? He is that kind of person, a guy with super powers.
That's why you said you'd have nothing to worry about if you followed him, and that's why you're wearing such thin clothes. What you're wearing isn't actually made of warm material, it's because one of you has superpowers, right?"
He Rui knew that he talked too much, and maybe their previous performance was full of loopholes, which were seen by the cunning Lao Liu, who found something wrong.
"So why are you saying all this?!" He Rui's tone changed and he became wary of the other party.
Although he didn't know why the other party told him this, he felt that this guy Lao Liu seemed to have bad intentions.
He immediately ran away and prepared to inform Ji Changqing.
"Don't run, don't run, come back, brother! I'll tell you the truth, I just want to be honest and then curry favor with you.
Since our boss is so powerful, why would I pick a fight with him? It's so cool to be with a powerful person and enjoy the good life. I'm stupid for picking a fight with him...
I'll do as you say. I'll go upstairs and apologize to him. That's all I need to do... I just hope the boss won't pick on me for no reason and find fault with me... Please help me put in a few good words for him and say good things about me, brother."
He Rui looked at the other person suspiciously, but still wanted to run upstairs.
But suddenly, the man's eyes widened, and he stared at the direction of the stairs behind him and exclaimed in surprise, his expression very surprised, "Hey, boss, why are you still eavesdropping?"
He Rui turned around and saw Ji Changqing walking towards them from the stairs.
Originally, he was planning to tell Ji Changqing everything he heard to see what he thought.
But I didn't expect that the person would come down directly.
I don’t know how much this person just heard.
If his brother Ji had listened to everything he said, he would have saved himself the trouble of talking too much.
He Rui turned his head and urged, "Stop talking nonsense, apologize if you should, and do whatever you should do, in front of me."
"Okay, okay." The man agreed readily.
Ji Changqing had an indifferent expression.
Her cold eyes stared silently at the man who was clearly framed but apologized to her sincerely.
"No matter what, it was all my fault before. I promise that I will never mess with you again, Boss. Please believe me! I won't ask for forgiveness! I, Jiang Sheng! I will die today to prove my loyalty!! I will die right here as a token of my sincerity!!"
