Chapter 224 Qi's Request
After most people fell asleep, this place completely merged into the night.
In a place where no one could see, Kong Wu and several men in black stood on the treetops, looking down at the land.
"Boss, aren't we going to launch a night raid today?" A man stood behind Kong Wu for a long time, but saw no action, so he asked.
Kong Wu ignored him. Another person touched him as a reminder, and the man didn't dare to say anything more.
The person who spoke was a newcomer who had never been on a mission. Because many of the people sent by Gu Mingqi to assassinate Qin Xiangnuan were killed, Kong Wu brought a few newcomers with him this time.
It was because Kong Wu understood that their mission would be difficult to succeed with Qin Xiangnuan and Jiang Lin around, so it would be better to leave capable people in the capital for Gu Mingqi to use when he did big things.
Kong Wu did not plan a surprise attack. He just didn't understand what kind of trap Qin Xiangnuan was trying to set for them by making such a big show of force.
But after a few days of investigation, he found nothing.
"Have the people inside found out the news?" Kong Wu stared at the place where Qin Xiangnuan was.
"My subordinates are incompetent!"
The people they planted didn't provide any useful information.
They also found nothing after a night of watching from a distance, as they came and went without a trace.
As usual, after everyone was seated, the carriage was about to move forward steadily, but the progress was delayed because of Qi.
"Nuannuan, you don't have to pay attention to her. She must be lying to you." Qin Yi stood up first after knowing that Qi was causing trouble.
That day, Qin Yi heard Qin Xiangnuan's suspicion about Qi. No matter what Qi did, he would not believe it. He could not hurt everyone because of his worthless feelings for Qi.
Qin Xiangnuan felt that Qi was not faking it this time. She smiled and comforted Qin Yi, "Uncle San, Qi's bone fracture is real. She has been moving around a lot these days, so it must be painful."
When Qin Yi heard Qin Xiangnuan directly change the address of Third Aunt to Mrs. Qi, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but he still had doubts about Mrs. Qi.
But because Qin Xiangnuan said so, Qin Yi followed Qin Xiangnuan to see Qi.
"Nuannuan." Qi changed her approach now. She no longer looked ferocious when facing them, but spoke sweetly and flatteringly.
Qin Xiangnuan looked at her pitiful face and said, "My legs have been in excruciating pain since this morning, and the jolting of the carriage just now has made the pain even worse."
Qin Yi clearly saw the smile on her face and snorted coldly, "Now you have learned to use the self-torture trick."
A hint of ferocity flashed in Qi's eyes, but Qin Xiangnuan noticed the cold sweat on her forehead. She had never known that she could be so patient. The cold sweat from the pain was real, but she could still smile.
"Nuannuan, your uncle has no trust in me anymore." Qi clutched the fabric beneath her and said through gritted teeth, "Aren't you a doctor? You'll definitely know if what I say is true or not."
Qin Xiangnuan had been watching her performance since she came in, and only now did she speak out, "I remember telling you not to move, but you didn't listen."
Qi suddenly lowered her head. She understood how cruel Qin Xiangnuan was. Finally, she could no longer maintain her kindness. She raised her head and said fiercely, "Qin Xiangnuan, don't go too far!"
"Hmph." Qin Xiangnuan sneered, "Then what should I do? Do you think it's not excessive?"
"Of course, it's to heal my leg." Qi said without stopping, "Let me get on the carriage. I don't want to be here alone!"
"Nuannuan, let her scream, we just need to hurry on our way." Qin Yi couldn't stand Qi's hateful look the most, so he pulled Qin Xiangnuan to get out of the car.
"Qin Yi!" Qi roared, "Don't forget, Song'er was born after ten months of pregnancy! If you treat me like this, I will make Song'er hate you!"
"If you dare to do anything to Song'er, I will never let you go!"
Obviously, Qi had touched Qin Yi's sore spot, causing Qin Yi, who had always only thought about studying and being a humble gentleman, to become so irritable that his roar even exceeded Qi's.
Qi, who had never seen this side of Qin Yi, was shocked. For a moment, she lost her expression and speech.
The sudden silence made Qin Yi realize his own loss of composure. He retracted his finger that was pointing at Qi, clenched his fist and placed it at his side. He said in a hoarse voice, "You'd better not set your sights on Song'er, otherwise..."
Qin Yi couldn't say anything more cruel, but his momentum was so strong that it frightened the Qi family.
At this time, Qin Xiangnuan took out a medicine bottle from her bosom and threw it to Qi. "Apply this to the swollen area three times a day. I advise you not to move any more, otherwise you will bear the consequences."
Qin Yi's eyes fell on the medicine bottle. Just by looking at the bottle, he knew that it was very expensive. He couldn't help but hate Qi even more. The Qin family was so good to her, but she had such a strange heart.
When disappointment accumulates to a certain level, people will no longer be upset by trivial matters. Qin Yi retracted his gaze and said to Qin Xiangnuan, "Nuannuan, let's go."
When they just got off the carriage, Qi inside seemed to come to her senses and shouted for a change of carriage.
"No matter..." Qin Yi's face was gloomy, and he pulled Nuannuan and was about to leave.
Qin Xiangnuan shook her head at him, "Uncle San, let her..."
Qin Yi was interrupted by Qin Xiangnuan, and Qin Xiangnuan was stopped by Qi.
Qi said anxiously, "It's okay if I don't ride in the same carriage with you. Just take my last carriage."
The car she was talking about was the one that had the person she met that night.
Qin Xiangnuan smiled knowingly and said "OK" outside the car.
Qin Yi was very angry about this and didn't even notice that there were only men in Qi's new carriage.
It was Madam Qin who reminded Qin Yi after hearing what he said. Qin Yi was just stunned for a moment, and then he didn't care. "If she really has a lover, that would be even better."
Old Madam Qin could not tolerate such a scandal in her family and could not help but scold Qin Xiangnuan.
"Nuannuan, your Third Uncle is so angry, why are you letting Qi do whatever she wants?" Old Madam Qin could tell she was very concerned. "If you let Qi come here, we won't argue with her."
Qin Xiangnuan had indeed not considered this when Qi said this, so she could only comfort Old Madam Qin, "Grandma, even if you want her to come, she may not agree."
Old Madam Qin frowned, she couldn't ruin her reputation no matter what.
Qin Xiangnuan continued, "Even Third Uncle doesn't look down on Qi. Who among us could possibly catch her eye? She probably really didn't want to ride in the same carriage with us, so she chose that one as a second choice."
Old Lady Qin glanced at Qin Yi, and thinking of Qi's nature of taking advantage of others, she believed Qin Xiangnuan's words.
"Then." Old Madam Qin still hadn't completely let go of her worries. "Why not let a maid go and look after Qi?"
Qin Xiangnuan indeed frowned and refused, "Grandma, that would only make you talk nonsense."
So Mrs. Qin ignored the matter.
