Chapter 192: Bo Qiaohui 4
"Uh-huh."
Liu Qi nodded twice in a daze, and then he saw the girl with a sweet smile turn around and say to the man, "Hurry up and leave, he won't give you the jade."
The man was so angry that he raised his hand to hit her: "You little stinky girl, how dare you ruin your grandfather's good deeds!"
Liu Qi subconsciously protected the person behind him and closed his eyes to withstand the slap.
Unexpectedly, the slap didn't land, but instead the man let out a scream. Liu Qi carefully opened his eyes and saw an eight-foot-tall strong man holding both of the man's arms behind his back with one hand.
"Wow……"
Liu Qi gestured in his mind in amazement and found that even his master Zhou Yafu was not as tall and majestic as this man.
"Bullying a kid is nothing. If you have the guts, go fight your grandfather."
As Bo Ren spoke, he raised his big hand and casually patted the man twice. He then howled like a wild boar, repeatedly begging for mercy. "I...I, warrior, you misunderstood. These two kids stole my jade. I just want it back."
Zhao Si, who was selling buns nearby, couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha, where did this country bumpkin come from? He lies without even considering who's in front of him. Miss Qiaohui and Mr. Bo are from the same family. See? This Si Shi Zhai is their shop. How dare they covet your things?"
The man's face turned completely pale and he stopped struggling.
"Little sister, what should we do with this person?"
"Let him go, he didn't really do anything."
After Bo Qiaohui finished speaking, she took Liu Qi's hand and walked back, passing a little girl carrying a basket on her back. The girl looked back as if she had sensed something. The street was bustling with people, but for some reason she felt lost.
"Eat it."
Bo Qiaohui took him to the backyard of her shop and placed a lot of snacks on the table. Liu Qi hesitated and reached out to take the jade from his neck: "I don't have any money, so I'll give you this jade."
"I don't want your jade. These are the snacks my family has just made. Please try them and see if they are delicious. Just consider it a favor to me."
Liu Qi then picked up the snacks. Although he ate quickly, it was obvious that he was well-educated and his every move was polite.
Bo Ren walked in and glanced at the two people sitting across from each other in the yard. He didn't know what he was thinking, but they were still together. Bo Chen, who had finished his work outside, peeked in and was about to go over to ask, but his eldest brother grabbed him by the collar and said, "Don't disturb them."
Bo Chen glanced at his elder brother with some surprise: "It's obvious that this child doesn't come from an ordinary family. Shouldn't we quickly ask about his family and send him back?"
"This person was brought back by my younger sister."
Bo Chen understood and immediately followed his elder brother and left quietly.
The two people sitting under the tree didn't pay attention to the conversation over there. After eating and drinking their fill, Liu Qi sincerely thanked Qiao Hui: "Thank you for giving me food. These cakes are delicious. I've never had such delicious snacks at home. My name is Qi'er, what's your name?"
"My name is Bo Qiaohui, you can call me Aqiao," Bo Qiaohui took out a handkerchief and handed it to him. "Where is your home? Do you want me to ask my brother to take you back?"
"I...my parents don't want me anymore, and I don't want to go back." Qi'er took the handkerchief, wiped the corner of his mouth, and said sadly when hearing Qiaohui's question.
The girl's face showed a sad expression of empathy. "My mother also passed away. Fortunately, my father and brothers are very good to me. If you have nowhere to go, you can stay at my house first. I just need a playmate."
"Okay, thank you so much!" Liu Qi nodded quickly. After only wandering for half a day, this naive prince who was ignorant of the sufferings of the world had already suffered a lot. Now when he heard that someone wanted to take him in, he immediately agreed.
Bo Qiaohui stood up and waved at him: "In that case, please accompany me up the mountain today."
"Oh, okay." Liu Qi also stood up quickly and subconsciously took her hand. The two came to the backyard where a small car was parked. The fourth brother Bo Qin had been waiting there for a long time.
"I thought you had a new friend, so you wouldn't go up the mountain today."
After saying that, he smiled at Qi'er and said, "Remember to follow my sister closely when we get up the mountain."
Along the way, Bo Chen chatted with the children about all sorts of things, which made Liu Qi very interested. He asked Bo Chen many questions, all of which were answered by him, and he even told some interesting stories.
"It would be great if you could be my master." Liu Qi couldn't help but sigh. "None of the masters back home can explain things as vividly and interestingly as you do. It's as if they can't show off their knowledge unless they explain things in a more complex way."
Bo Chen chewed on the word "some" and felt a toothache. Whose child had his little sister brought home? Hiss...could it be that adult's offspring?
When they arrived at the place, Bo Qi easily carried the two children down, one in each hand, and put the prepared food into a backpack and handed it to Liu Qi:
"Man, I'll leave these things to you." Liu Qi immediately puffed out his chest and hurriedly put on the backpack. The two children ran into the mountains hand in hand.
"What are we going to do in the mountains?" Liu Qi walked for a long time and felt that the backpack on his back was getting heavier and heavier, and his face was covered with sweat.
Bo Qiaohui supported him and pointed ahead: "Just walk along this path and you'll arrive."
Liu Qi had no choice but to hurry on. He walked for who knows how long, gritting his teeth, when Qiao Hui suddenly grabbed his sleeve and said, "Look up, idiot."
The boy subconsciously raised his head and saw a steep cliff in front of him. The wet and cool mist was blown across his face by the wind, dispelling the summer heat from his body.
The scenery on the mountain was particularly vast, and his originally anxious heart was unknowingly calmed down.
"Come and sit down." Qiaohui was already familiar with the place and sat on a huge rock. She took the backpack handed to her by Liu Qi and put it aside. The two of them stood shoulder to shoulder looking at the mountains in the distance.
Qiaohui's voice, like a clear spring, echoed slowly in her ears: "My hometown is far away. I was in poor health as a child and had few playmates. Later, my family moved to Chang'an. At first, those children looked down on my family, and then... I just didn't want to play with them anymore."
"My father and brothers were worried about me because I stayed in the house all day. I didn't want to make them worry, so I said I loved seeing the scenery. That's why they bought a car just to make it more convenient for them to pick me up."
Liu Qi envied her family, but also felt a little strange: "Aren't they afraid that you might encounter wild animals when you go up the mountain alone?"
Qiaohui turned her head, the wind whistled past, blowing her long black hair. The setting sun dyed her bright black pupils with a bright golden light because she turned her head away.
The vast world was reflected in her eyes, and only Liu Qi could see it at this moment.
