Qi Guangyao's self-righteous concession was only met with a cold laugh from Qi Shengzhi:
"Give you tens of thousands of dollars? You and your mother are used to being blood suckers, right? I'm not Qi Mingyuan. If you want money, go ask him!"
Qi Shengzhi's rebuff extinguished the last bit of hope in Qi Guangyao's heart, and he suddenly became ruthless:
"Isn't it just tens of thousands of dollars? Qi Shengzhi, why do you have to be so ruthless?"
Qi Shengzhi looked at Qi Guangyao like a clown, his tone full of contempt:
"I've seen people begging for food, but I've never seen anyone asking for it so confidently. You, Qi Guangyao, are the only one like him!"
"Even if you don't tell me, I know you've definitely gotten into trouble. Either get out of here right now or I'll pretend I never saw you. If you keep on pestering me, I'll report you to the police and have you arrested!"
Given Qi Shengzhi's understanding of Qi Guangyao's thick skin, if it was really as simple as he said that he had just had a conflict with Qi Mingyuan, how could he rather starve and freeze on the street than go back and admit his mistake to Qi Mingyuan?
Qi Guangyao now has no home to return to and is anxious to go abroad. It is obvious that he has committed a serious crime.
When Qi Guangyao heard this, his spine, which had just hardened for a second, softened again, and he begged for mercy with a sad face:
"Brother, I was wrong. I shouldn't have spoken to you in this manner."
"I won't rush you. Just lend me a few hundred dollars and I'll find a place to live. It's the end of the month. Can't I just wait?"
Qi Sheng sneered:
"You want to wait now? It's too late!"
"You and your mother have the same problem, you're too greedy. Before I report it to the police, if you know what's good for you, get out of here right now and don't show up in front of me again!"
After he said that, he ignored Qi Guangyao and turned to walk in.
Qi Guangyao froze in despair, despair and anger surging in his heart.
It's ridiculous that before he came, he regarded Qi Shengzhi as his last straw, but he didn't expect Qi Shengzhi to change his mind so suddenly and didn't regard him as a brother at all.
Not only did they refuse to lend him money, but they also verbally insulted him and his mother and threatened to report him to the police?
Qi Guangyao was furious. Since Qi Shengzhi didn't want him to live, he would drag Qi Shengzhi down with him even if he died!
He squatted quietly in the darkness at the foot of the wall with a ferocious look on his face, his mind full of thoughts about how to take revenge on Qi Shengzhi.
......
Lu Zhan walked from the office to the dormitory with a serious expression on his face.
In the past few days, he has searched the office and dormitory over and over again, and looked at every object he thought might be the medium, but nothing could remind him of the past with Shao Jingque.
He couldn't help but blame himself. What on earth had he chosen as the medium that was so difficult to find?
His thoughts were wandering aimlessly when he suddenly heard someone calling him:
"Captain Lu!"
Lu Zhan looked up and saw that it was Wang Tao whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Seeing Wang Tao reminded Lu Zhan of the time when he sent Shao Jingque to the Henan Provincial Military District Hospital.
At that time, the flood in Henan Province had just occurred and road traffic was severely disrupted everywhere. It was really not easy for him to bring Shao Jingque here so quickly under such circumstances.
However, the two have not met since Lu Zhan returned from Henan Province.
Wang Tao works as a clerk in the cadre department under Yao Wenbin. He is usually responsible for clerical work and liaises with superior and subordinate departments. He rarely comes to the training ground, so the two naturally have few opportunities to meet.
Today, by chance, I met him near the gate of the military area. He looked like he had just returned from outside.
Thinking of the past, Lu Zhan thanked Wang Tao:
"Wang Tao, I forgot to thank you for what happened earlier. You ran such a long way, thank you for your hard work."
Wang Tao smiled shyly:
"You're welcome, Captain Lu. Sister Jingque always takes care of me and even lets me have dinner with her on weekends!"
A hint of surprise flashed across Lu Zhan's eyes. He didn't even know when Wang Tao and Shao Jingque became so familiar with each other?
In his impression, the only time Wang Tao and Shao Jingque met was when they came to the Henan Provincial Military District Hospital from Ning City together, and then Wang Tao left.
He didn't expect that they still had contact after returning to Ning City. If he had known this, he would have asked Wang Tao about Shao Jingque's news from the beginning.
"Do you...see each other often?"
Wang Tao smiled and nodded:
"My boyfriend works at Sister Jingque's store, and we often have dinner together on weekends."
Lu Zhan felt a little sad. Having dinner with Shao Jingque seemed like a very ordinary thing to Wang Tao, but for him it was an unattainable dream.
Wang Tao felt sorry for Lu Zhan when he saw him looking so lonely.
At the beginning, when Sister Jingque didn't let him call her sister-in-law, he guessed that he might have had a conflict with Captain Lu. He thought that maybe it would be fine after a few days, but who knew that he hadn't seen the two of them together for such a long time. Isn't this cold war too long?
Thinking that Sister Jingque was so good to him and Ding Ling, and that Captain Lu was the young officer he admired most, Wang Tao also wanted to help them ease the conflict.
"Captain Lu, my boyfriend is moving this weekend and we're inviting Sister Jingque and the others to dinner. How about... you come too?"
He can't make the decision on other dinner parties, but if he wants to treat someone, he can always invite Captain Lu to join him, right?
At that time, just pretend that you don't know that they have a conflict, say some nice things during dinner, and try to bring them together. Maybe the relationship between the two will be broken.
After all, seeing that Sister Jingque's belly is getting bigger day by day, she needs someone to take care of her. It's not a good idea for the two of them to continue the cold war like this!
When Lu Zhan heard his invitation, his eyes lit up instantly. Suddenly he thought of something and said hesitantly:
"Then...will Qi Shengzhi go?"
Wang Tao was a little surprised that Lu Zhan would ask about Qi Shengzhi, but then he thought, Sister Jingque and Master Ding Ling have such a good relationship, it is normal for the two men to know each other.
Wang Tao thought about it and then nodded:
"Not necessarily. He might go, but he seems to be busy lately and doesn't come to dinner parties very often."
He only appeared more often with Master Ding Ling some time ago, but I haven't seen him for the past week or two.
Lu Zhan's eyes suddenly dimmed. Judging from the tone of Wang Tao's words, he seemed to have known Qi Shengzhi for a while. Everyone had moved on, but he was the only one who was still stuck in the memories that he couldn't find and was spinning in circles.
"...I have something else to do this weekend, so I won't be going."
Wang Tao thought he couldn't save face and backed out again, so he hurriedly said:
"Captain Lu, don't blame me for being nosy, but it's already this late, you can't be angry with Sister Jingque anymore!"
"She's already been to the hospital once, and the doctor told her to eat well, drink well, and relax. How can she relax if you two keep on having this cold war?"
"If it really affects the baby in her belly, it will be too late to regret it then!"
