Chapter 200 Earrings
Mrs. Xu found slippers for Xu Shiming, placed them beside the bed, and then personally helped Xu Shiming put on his shoes.
It was as if Xu Shiming was not a free-moving person, but a giant baby.
Xu Shiming held her hand and seemed to be acting with the help of her strength.
"Yun...Fang, where is Yuan'er?"
Mrs. Xu froze for a moment, her drooping eyes filled with depression.
"Hubby, Yuan'er is out. Also, my name is Yunfen..."
The last few words were spoken in an extremely low voice, and almost no one heard it except Xu Shiming.
Xu Shiming smiled, "I know, Yunfang is my nickname for you, do you like it?"
If Mrs. Xu could roll her eyes at him openly, she would have done so a hundred times already. She knew that he was lying with his eyes open, but she still had to agree with him to save face.
"Haha, I like it. I like it very much."
Xu Shiming patted the back of her hand, neither sad nor happy, "Hurry up and call Yuan'er back. He is so disappointing. I will hand over Xu's to Xu Yansheng."
Anyway, the person next to Xu Yansheng will always know what they are thinking, so he might as well put it on the table. As for what others will do after hearing about this decision, it is none of his business.
Mrs. Xu obviously knew that Qiu Tingxu could hear their thoughts, and she quickly suppressed the dissatisfaction that arose as a conditioned reflex when she heard the news.
Smiling, she responded to Xu Shiming, "Okay, I'll go call Yuan'er back now. Is there anything else?"
Xu Shiming nodded: "Yes, please help me inform the shareholders that I will hold a press conference."
Mrs. Xu then let go of his hand and went outside to make a phone call.
Qiu Tingxu stopped her and said, "Although you don't have any voice in your heart right now, it doesn't mean that we are fools."
"If you have something to say, just talk about it in this room. Don't go and arrange it secretly. Don't say you want to arrange a press conference. You actually want to kill us, right?"
Xu Shiming stood up and slowly walked towards Qiu Tingxu. "What you said is very biased. We just want to arrange the transfer. Also, don't you want Qin Lang's body?"
"I'll get it for you right away, Yunfang. Just call Yuan'er to come back, and remember to bring his favorite things."
Mrs. Xu nodded repeatedly and started making a phone call in front of them.
…
Qiu Tingxu watched Nie Jianxi follow Xu Shiming to the study. Luo Qingfeng and Wen Lang were leaning on the left and right outside the master bedroom door, tilting their heads to look inside.
Luo Qingfeng crossed his arms and laughed at them: "Haven't you finished yet? Can you do it? It's been half an hour, and Xu Shiming just got out of bed?"
Qiu Tingxu coughed and said, "I just slapped him unconscious, which delayed us for a while."
He was distracted by Mrs. Xu's phone call, and asked Luo Qingfeng: "Did you encounter any accidents on your trip to Dongsui City?"
Luo Qingfeng touched his chin and glanced at the guilty Wen Lang, "There was an accident. A woman saw Wen Lang go back and pestered him to marry her."
Qiu Tingxu's eyes grew bigger, and his gossipy mood suddenly flared up.
"Oh, that was a big surprise."
Mrs. Xu finished the call in a few words, glanced at them, and walked silently towards the study.
Qiu Tingxu was not busy asking about gossip. He pulled Xu Yansheng, who had been following him quietly, to the study with Mrs. Xu. Before leaving, he leaned over to whisper in Luo Qingfeng's ear.
"Keep an eye on the gate. Xu Shiming's own son might come back with dangerous items."
Luo Qingfeng paused and was about to follow them. He said unhappily, "Wen Lang and I are here to guard the gate? If I had known this, I would not have come!"
Qiu Tingxu frowned, "Why are you so angry?"
He patted Luo Qingfeng's shoulder, but was pulled by Xu Yansheng silently.
"Watch carefully. I'll go check on Nie Jianxi. Otherwise, if Xu Shiming, that treacherous man, harms us, we'll be in big trouble."
As soon as he finished speaking, "Bang!" a dull gunshot rang out.
Qiu Tingxu was stunned for a moment, "Fuck! Nie Jianxi!"
He rushed directly into the study next door.
Xu Yansheng followed closely behind. Luo Qingfeng and Wen Lang looked at each other and said, "Brother, how about you watch the gate by yourself?"
They were all a little worried that something might happen in the study, but they couldn't just ignore the door.
Fortunately, Wen Lang was not a person with excessive curiosity. He nodded and even pushed Luo Qingfeng.
"Go and have a look, don't let anything really happen."
Luo Qingfeng then went to the study as well.
The Xu family’s study is naturally not small, and even with so many people standing in it it doesn’t seem crowded, but rather empty.
Xu Shiming stood in front of something that looked like a safe. The safe was open, and Xu Shiming was holding a pistol in his hand.
Nie Jianxi was quite far away from him, about ten meters away. He was touching his left earlobe in a daze. When he heard them come in, he looked at them blankly.
Qiu Tingxu immediately shouted: "Xu Yansheng!"
After that, he ran to Nie Jianxi's side, "Nie Jianxi, are you okay?"
Xu Yansheng looked at Xu Shiming coldly: "Throw the gun over here."
Xu Shiming smiled and threw the gun to Xu Yansheng, "I didn't mean to do that. I haven't touched this thing for a long time. I accidentally fired it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have missed."
Here, Nie Jianxi did not respond to Qiu Tingxu's words, but just stared at him blankly, with a little less gentleness and elegance, and a little more innocent and cuteness that was ignorant of the world.
Qiu Tingxu was stunned, and subconsciously looked at his earlobe, muttering: "It's over, it's over, Nie Jianxi's earring is ruined..."
Luo Qingfeng, who followed them in, was also dumbfounded, "...What do you mean? Isn't it just an earring?"
Qiu Tingxu wanted to cry but had no tears. "He said before that this is to strengthen his soul!"
"Fuck, I should have come in with him just now, even though I knew he had low combat power. It's all my fault!"
But at this moment, Nie Jianxi pushed him away, looked straight at Xu Shiming, and flipped his hand casually, and a stack of talismans appeared in his hand.
Qiu Tingxu was dumbfounded, watching Nie Jianxi walk over with a heroic and confident manner, and childishly and directly stick the talismans on Xu Shiming's body.
Under their eyes, Xu Shiming couldn't do anything else. He could only tear off one whenever Nie Jianxi put one on.
Qiu Tingxu: "...Jianxi, what are you doing?"
Nie Jianxi changed to another talisman and pasted one. Xu Shiming suddenly stopped moving and allowed Nie Jianxi to stick the talisman all over his upper body, even his face.
Mrs. Xu glared at them. She originally wanted to help tear off the talisman paper, but was stopped by Xu Yansheng's words "Don't move".
After that, Nie Jianxi returned to Qiu Tingxu's side and said innocently, "Brother, I am putting a bad luck charm on him. He just wanted to hit me. Grandpa told me that if someone bullies me, I should make him unlucky."
"But he moved around, so I put another immobilization spell on him."
His current mentality is not like that of an adult. Instead, he is like a good child who listens to his parents, except... a little silly, very... cute.
Qiu Tingxu and Luo Qingfeng were both Spartan, "Qingfeng, did you see that? Why did Nie Jianxi suddenly become so cute?"
Luo Qingfeng touched his chin and coaxed Nie Jianxi: "Hey, call me brother too."
Nie Jianxi glanced at him and said, "I know you. You saved me when I was a child, but you are a few days younger than me, so you should call me brother."
Luo Qingfeng: "...How do you know I'm younger than you?"
Nie Jianxi had a blank expression on his face, his eyes were empty and lifeless, like an AI that had just appeared. "I calculated it."
Luo Qingfeng finally felt something was wrong, and even a little scared, and asked Qiu Tingxu: "Do you feel that Nie Jianxi is less popular now?"
Qiu Tingxu was angry, "You just realized that his soul is probably unstable! Hurry up and contact your father and ask his grandfather if there is any solution."
"I didn't leave the old man's contact information last time. It was a mistake."
Luo Qingfeng was stunned: "..."
Just because an earring is broken, your soul is unstable?
It's too outrageous.
But Luo Qingfeng was afraid of delaying things, so he called his father.
Before the call got through, the tempered glass of the study window suddenly shattered and a man jumped in from outside.
The head is like a wolf-tail mullet, with white hair, so white that it lacks blood color.
