Chapter 22
Wen Qiu volunteered to drive.
Ji Liao was surprised, but happy to accept it.
After all, the address sent by the lawyer was very unfamiliar, and he was afraid he wouldn't be able to find it.
As it turned out, he was wise.
The car took many turns before it found the address given by the lawyer.
In an old and dilapidated house in the old city.
The narrow alleys made it difficult to drive, so they parked nearby and walked into the community.
"Why don't I go by myself?"
Ji Liao felt a little embarrassed to waste Wen Qiu's time.
Wen Qiu got out of the car without hesitation.
Probably because their car and Wen Qiu's appearance were too bright, they attracted a lot of attention when they walked into the community.
Ji Liao simply called his lawyer and quickly locked the location.
Grandma's house is in a building near the inner part of the community, on the top floor with stairs.
There is an elevator in the villa, but Wen Qiu usually walks up the stairs, so this flight of stairs is not tiring for him.
Only Ji Liao felt bad and tried to persuade Wen Qiu: "Mr. Wen, just wait for me downstairs, you don't have to come up..."
Wen Qiu still didn't listen.
When we got upstairs, the door was wide open and we could hear the noise from a distance.
The lawyer is not alone.
Ji Liao took two steps at a time and ran into the house.
Sure enough, I saw the lawyer surrounded by several people.
He didn't notice that Wen Qiu behind him had frowned.
The pheromone smell here is so pungent.
And alpha.
"You're finally here!"
Someone spotted Ji Liao and immediately looked at him coldly.
"Your grandmother passed away and you handled it without a word? You didn't even bother to inform us?!"
Two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, grabbed Ji Liao and dragged him into the house.
The lawyer also came forward at this time, and lived up to his calmness on the phone:
"Mr. Ji, you are finally here."
Ji Liao was confused:
"What's going on?"
"I asked you what happened!"
Another stranger shouted, "Grandma passed away, and you didn't even tell us. You just want to keep this house for yourself, right?"
"You're so calculating at such a young age!"
"If I hadn't caught the lawyer, you would have gotten away with it!"
Ji Liao: “…”
My head is buzzing.
Amidst the chatter, Ji Liao sorted out the situation.
The lawyer learned of the grandmother's death during a call with the hospital, and was met by the original owner's relatives when he went to check on the property.
The old man only has this one property in his name as an inheritance, and his relatives all want to divide it up. However, the lawyer said that the old man has a will and the property belongs to Ji Liao, so they are not happy and insist on calling Ji Liao to clarify the matter.
So this happened.
The facts are clear, but the reason is hard to explain.
"Ji Liao, don't even think about taking this apartment!"
It seems that my aunt's people are very powerful.
The lawyer looked at Ji Liao sympathetically and said, "Mr. Ji, if you need legal assistance, we can also provide it."
Ji Liao glanced at everyone.
Just about to speak.
Wen Qiu took a step forward and pulled him from behind.
"The will is valid, isn't it?"
Wen Qiu asked the lawyer with his hands covering his nose in disgust.
The lawyer nodded.
There is an alpha among this group of people, and his pheromones are already showing signs of attack.
Wen Qiu simply sent out a warning signal, and the crowd quieted down.
Then he continued:
"What should I do with your paperwork? If they don't recognize it, I can sue you in court."
“You wish!”
A beta suddenly jumped up and said, "If we don't make things clear today, no one will be able to leave!"
As he spoke, he pulled out a knife from his pocket.
“!”
Ji Liao also jumped up and pushed Wen Qiu aside.
Wen Qiu; “?”
Ji Liao was also afraid of knives, of course, but his first reaction was to avoid implicating Wen Qiu. He had also been gathering strength for a long time, so he shouted even louder than the others: "What are you doing! I'm calling the police!"
He held the phone in one hand, glared at the other person, and actually started dialing.
Since the other party came prepared, it will definitely not be easy for us to escape today.
It was right to call the police early.
However, the other party seemed to have no moral principles and rushed forward with a knife:
"You dare to call the police! You...ah!"
Before he could finish his words, he was pinned to the ground by Wen Qiu.
Everything happened so fast that when Ji Liao reacted, he heard a crisp "click".
Beta's arms were bent at an abnormal angle, and he lay on the ground squealing like a pig.
"My hand! My hand!"
"What are you doing!" The alpha next to him also reacted and rushed over to help.
Wen Qiu didn't even look at the other person. He held down Beta with one hand and glared at Alpha. The other person trembled and didn't dare to move forward.
The deterrent effect of pheromones spread among them.
Ji Liao finally smelled it.
Like that night at the Menglan Hotel, when he smelled the scent when Qiu saved him.
Wen Qiu didn't look at Ji Liao, but looked at the lawyer and said coldly:
"It was an illegal burglary with a knife. You saw it."
The lawyer was a beta, but having seen many alphas, he knew that the one in front of him was particularly difficult to deal with, so he nodded vigorously.
"Call the police." Wen Qiu said finally.
*
The police arrived quickly.
Financial disputes are only mediated, but if it involves burglary, the person will be taken away directly.
Everyone has to give a statement.
Because the facts were clear and the documents were complete, Ji Liao completed the inheritance handover at the police station and set a date for the transfer.
When he left, he owned two houses.
The relative who wielded the knife, Beta, was sent to the hospital for treatment. His arm was only dislocated and would heal quickly. He was then taken into custody. Other relatives, including some who pleaded for leniency and some who were dissatisfied with the ownership of the house, threatened to sue.
There are a lot of troubles, but Ji Liao still sighed sincerely:
"Mr. Wen, I already have two apartments!"
Wen Qiu: “Yeah.”
"I'm sorry to have troubled you." Ji Liao smiled guiltily, not daring to show his happiness.
"Shall we go out for dinner tonight? My treat?"
Wen Qiu: "Whatever you want."
Ji Liao didn't notice anything wrong with Wen Qiu. Wen Qiu was usually a quiet person, so he opened the search software to check out the nearby delicious food and discussed with Wen Qiu who would drive on the way back.
Wen Qiu would respond from time to time, but remained silent most of the time.
Wen Lanjun had just contacted him today when Ji Liao almost got into trouble.
Is it a coincidence?
Wen Qiu found it hard to believe.
What would happen to Ji Liao if he hadn't come?
But Ji Liao was by his side after all.
Where is Lou Yue?
Can Meng Shuyi be relied upon?
He didn't want to affect others at all.
Don't want to get others into trouble.
Wen Qiu's heart sank deeper and deeper. The autumn wind blew away a fallen leaf, which happened to fall on his shoulder, as if it weighed a thousand pounds.
Ji Liao was still busy planning what to eat in the evening. Wen Qiu took a breath of cold air and said:
"Let's go back and eat. Order some spicy lobster."
"..." Ji Liao blinked and agreed hesitantly: "That's fine."
*
On the way back, Ji Liao didn't drive.
He was responsible for ordering food in the passenger seat. When the person arrived, the food also arrived.
Wen Qiu can really eat spicy food, but Ji Liao doesn't dare to try something extremely spicy, so he ordered a sauce-flavored dish for himself.
But when he saw Wen Qiu eating without changing his expression, he thought the merchant had made a mistake, so he tried one.
It was so spicy that it almost ripped his skull off.
Ji Liao didn't dare to touch it again during the whole dinner.
After dinner, Wen Qiu asked Ji Liao to watch a movie with him for the first time.
The two were watching a horror movie in the living room. Ji Liao was shaking with fear, but Wen Qiu was quite happy and scratched Ji Liao's head from time to time.
It's also a kind of comfort.
After being tortured until most of the night, Ji Liao could no longer bear it and fell asleep unknowingly.
He woke up again, it was the doorbell that woke him up.
Ji Liao fell off the sofa with a plop and went to open the door while yawning.
Zhang Nan was standing outside the door.
Their eyes met, and Zhang Nan smiled brightly: "Good morning, is Mr. Wen up yet?"
"I don't know...what are you doing?" Ji Liao saw that there was someone standing next to Zhang Nan, pushing a rack with a row of clothes hanging on it.
Zhang Nan smiled happily: "I'm here to pick up Mr. Wen for work."
Ji Liao: “Ah???”
