Chapter 169 Don't cause trouble, I'll go explore the way
Jiang Zhiyue used to think that Gu Zhaoye was her nemesis.
Ever since Qin Si appeared, she realized that he was an even more scoundrel than Gu Zhaoye.
He is tall and has a strong aura. He looks like a very capable person. Who would have thought that he would refuse to take action just because he thought the other person was too dirty.
Hearing the man's slightly threatening words, Jiang Zhiyue raised her eyes. Qin Si was looking at her coldly, as if he was sure that she would come back obediently.
The two of them were assigned to the same group, obviously with ulterior motives.
If Jiang Zhiyue leaves without permission, it will disrupt the plans of the person behind the scenes.
She knew that the person behind this was Xiao Jingrun, and she couldn't leave him alone.
In order to get rid of the siege of the gangsters, Jiang Zhiyue grabbed the man's wrist and ran away. Before escaping, she quickly took off an exquisite brooch from Qin Si's collar and threw it far away.
While the gangster's attention was distracted by the valuable thing, he ran away.
But after running for most of the day, they still couldn't escape from the maze-like slums.
During the escape, Qin Si ordered her to let go and warned her not to touch him without permission. He also asked her in a cold tone what qualifications she had to throw away the brooch. Every word he said was filled with innate strength and inviolable majesty.
"Didn't you ask me to save you? You provoked them by showing off your wealth. The only way to escape is to give up your wealth." Jiang Zhiyue's delicate brows were slightly frowned, and her tone was soft. If you listened carefully, you could see a hint of impatience in her voice.
Qin Si narrowed his eyes and looked at her with a cold tone.
“Oh, it’s not because of Xiao Jingrun?”
"What does it have to do with him?" Jiang Zhiyue would naturally not admit it. She thought of what Xiao Jingrun said in the cave that night.
——"We will go through many tests before we can become qualified heirs."
——"This requires a lot of price to pay. If Jiang Zhiyue wants to achieve a certain goal, are you willing to pay the price?"
Jiang Zhiyue understood the meaning of this sentence, but she didn't expect it to come so soon.
Is her price to spend a few days in the slums with Qin Si?
Jiang Zhiyue didn't think Qin Si would be able to get rid of his bad habits by staying in such an environment.
Qin Si might feel that Xiao Jingrun was deliberately humiliating him, and then he would escalate his behavior.
The dilapidated house was crowded in the narrow gap between the walls, and the windbreak was torn and incomplete. Jiang Zhiyue stood against the wall, and the man stood outside indifferently.
Jiang Zhiyue waved.
Qin Si was too lazy to pay attention.
Jiang Zhiyue was speechless. "Master Qin, you are so contradictory. You just said that if something happens to you, we won't have an easy life, and then you are looking for death. How can I stop you?"
"I know the gang rules in New Malaysia very well. Those thugs who roam around the slums and collect protection fees, no matter who you are, once you step into their territory, you must abide by their rules, otherwise you will be thrown into the garbage dump and burned like garbage."
"You have a prominent status outside, but here, no one praises you."
In the end, she couldn't help it. Under normal circumstances, Jiang Zhiyue would never dare to speak to Qin Si in such a threatening and intimidating tone.
Qin Si didn't take the threat seriously, but her attitude made a dark light flash in his eyes.
"I've never been here before, and I don't know how to get out." Jiang Zhiyue said, "Can you wait here for me? I'll go explore the way."
"......." Qin Si's pair of cold eyes were so dim that not even a ray of light could penetrate them.
His eyes slowly drifted over a puddle of dirty water on the ground. Jiang Zhiyue changed her position, and the man then walked over slowly.
Directly in front of the two of them, the clothes-drying rack was worn to the point of falling apart and was shaky, with a large pile of messy and tattered clothes hanging on it. The location chosen by Jiang Zhiyue was like a natural barrier, just enough to block the view of passers-by.
Hiding here, the thugs searching everywhere won't be able to find them for a while.
Qin Si was more than a head taller than her, and he looked very oppressive. His well-ironed suit and exquisite tie gave off a strong sense of elitism.
He was a very strong man. Jiang Zhiyue felt him approaching and standing behind her. He leaned forward slightly, and his strong and firm chest almost touched her shoulders through her cool clothes.
His breath was wrapped in a layer of condensed ice. Jiang Zhiyue turned her head and took a few steps away to keep some distance from him.
Qin Si narrowed his eyes and stared at the girl's fair but blushing face. She was still a little out of breath because she had run a short distance.
"The brooch you threw away was given to me by my fiancée." Qin Si said coldly.
Jiang Zhiyue was slightly stunned, and stared at him solemnly. In just half a second, the arrogance in the man's eyes prevailed.
"I'm sorry." She said sincerely, "When we get out, I will find a way to buy the brooch back. Those people are just looking for money, so they will sell the brooch on the second-hand market."
Qin Si couldn't help but squint his eyes again. At this time, a gust of wind blew. Jiang Zhiyue was standing far away, and a piece of white gauze between the two of them fluttered up.
Qin Si looked at her through the thin white gauze.
The girl has dark and bright eyes and her skin is fair with a rosy glow.
She stood there obediently, looking at him with a calm expression on her face.
Qin Si stared at it intently, with a cold expression on his face, "What if there is no second-hand market?"
Jiang Zhiyue pursed her lips and said, "It must be in the second-hand market. People in the slums only want money."
"What's more..."
She had nothing to feel sorry for.
If Qin Si hadn't angered those people with his arrogant and rude look, the gangsters would have let them go if they had just handed over their clothes and said a few nice words.
Jiang Zhiyue is well aware of how to survive in the slums.
Perhaps, this was why she was grouped with him.
"What's more?" the man asked coldly. He was always frugal with words, but even through the thin white gauze, he could see her as misty.
The girl tilted her head back with her slender neck, like a white swan.
Her hair was a little messy, with a few strands of black hair sticking to her cheeks. Jiang Zhiyue tucked her hair behind her ears.
A very subtle movement.
Qin Si looked at her hands, then stared at her pink earlobes.
"Besides, this is trouble you created..." Jiang Zhiyue pondered, "I said before, people in the slums only want money. When we leave here, the outside is the red-light district, and the situation there will be even worse."
"The whole city is in chaos. You're causing trouble if you stay here. If you continue to do so after you leave, you will only cause trouble for me. Each of them carries a gun."
Qin Si raised his thin lips slightly and pushed aside the white veil that blocked his view.
Jiang Zhiyue stepped back again and said seriously, "Okay, stop making trouble. I'll go explore the way."
