Volume 1 Chapter 109: Way Out

"Are you kidding me?" Du Minrou's expression changed slightly.

"This is not a bluff, but a statement of an objective fact."

Qiao Yuncai smiled neither servile nor overbearing. He did not continue to speak to Du Minrou, but turned to Chu Tianxiong and said, "Boss Chu, Li Tian is my sworn brother. Anyone who can be favored by Qiao Yuncai and become sworn brothers with him is not just an ordinary person."

"He can see the changes in our country's destiny from Tang and Song poems, and can come up with the eternal verse 'Smoke locks the willows in the pond, peaches burn in the river'. He can also play blind chess as he pleases. He has such an unprecedented skill. My eldest brother's future achievements are destined to be extraordinary, and he may even surpass you."

"This is a potential stock. Have you ever thought that Miss Yu'er and him might be a good match?"

He was advising the Chu family to think about the problem from a different perspective. He had witnessed Li Tian's excellence with his own eyes, and Chu Yuer would not suffer any loss if she was paired with Li Tian.

Chu Tianxiong frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

Chu Yuer's pretty face blushed at this moment. She developed a strong interest in Li Tian because of his understanding of the country's destiny. She also developed feelings for him because Li Tian jumped off the bridge at the risk of his own life to save her from the dark and cold river. She was deeply attracted by Li Tian's charm and she didn't care about his past.

"Humph, it's easy to talk while standing!"

Du Minrou shouted coldly, "If you, Master Qiao, are asked to marry a commoner woman, will you marry her?"

"Marry."

Qiao Yuncai nodded without hesitation, "To be honest with you, Madam Chu, the reason I came to Binhai is because I heard that Binhai University is rich in beauties, so I came here to find a wife who is pleasing to the eye and pleasing to the heart."

When Lin Xiaoru heard this, she bit her lip and felt particularly lonely.

"No need to say more, Smiling Buddha, take your young master away. Otherwise, if he is hurt, it will not be our Chu family's fault." Du Minrou was too lazy to waste words with Qiao Yuncai, so she spoke to the Smiling Buddha.

He was the heir of the Qiao family in Shangjing, and the only male descendant of the Qiao family in Shangjing. She certainly couldn't just kill him. If she did, the whole Binhai would probably become a purgatory on earth.

The Smiling Buddha narrowed his eyes, with an unchanging Maitreya Buddha smile on his face. He bowed and said, "Madam, I am just a servant. How can I make decisions for my master without permission?"

The implication is that if Qiao Yuncai says he will leave, he will leave, and if he says he won't leave, he won't leave either. Everything must be done according to Qiao Yuncai's will.

"Do you really have to force me?" Du Minrou gritted her teeth, and her cold and beautiful face suddenly became scary.

"Li Tian is my elder brother. We swore to live and die together. If Madam Chu doesn't let him go, she will have to kill both of us." Qiao Yuncai put his hands behind his back without any fear.

"Okay, then all of you die, all of you die!"

Du Minrou went crazy, veins popped out on her forehead, and she waved her hand forward vigorously, "Shoot, shoot them to death!"

However, none of the Chu family bodyguards fired a shot, and they stood still without moving.

"What are you doing? I told you to shoot, didn't you hear me?" Du Minrou roared.

"Minrou, you need to calm down." Chu Tianxiong spoke slowly. It was a crazy and stupid act to dare to kill the people of the Qiao family in Shangjing.

Only then did Du Minrou realize that it was her husband who prevented the Chu family bodyguards from taking action.

She was stunned like a stone sculpture, and then she called out to Chu Tianxiong with a tearful voice.

“Tianxiong…”

"Send the madam and the young lady back first." Chu Tianxiong said lightly.

"yes"

The Chu family bodyguards who were protecting Du Minrou and Chu Yuer put Du Minrou and Chu Yuer in the car and drove away quickly with them.

During this process, no matter how Chu Yuer called out, it was of no avail.

"Thank you, Boss Chu."

Qiao Yuncai bowed to Chu Tianxiong. In fact, he was already scared out of his wits. That crazy Madam Chu actually dared to order the shooting. If Chu Tianxiong was not present today, he and his elder brother Li Tian might have really gone to see Prince Yan.

Chu Tianxiong raised his hand: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me. For the sake of your Master Qiao, I can give Li Tian a chance to live, but whether he can survive depends on his own luck."

"What way out?" Qiao Yuncai frowned slightly. This way out might be full of thorns.

"If he defeats my men, he can live, otherwise, he can only die!" said Chu Tianxiong.
