Chapter 152 Jin丨Exclusively published by Jiang Wenxue (25,000 nutrient solution plus more)

The moon has not risen yet, the room is very dark, and the breeze blows in from the window, bringing the chill of winter.

Two very similar figures sit opposite each other. Even though Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou have known each other for a long time, he cannot tell which one is his friend.

The two Hua Manlou are unaware of this weird scene, as if they have become accustomed to it.

The second Hua Manlou who spoke asked with concern: "Lu Xiaofeng, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly thought of Pei Rui.

The blind boy once said that there are ghosts in this world!

Lu Xiaofeng calmed down and tried not to think about Pei Rui.

His eyes lingered on the two Hua Manlou: "Hua Manlou?"

Hua Manlou: "You seem very tired, do you want to sit down and have a cup of tea?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Don't you have anything to say?"

Yu Qi looked straight ahead when he spoke, and even if he occasionally looked at Lu Xiaofeng, his eyes were misaligned with him and did not reach the point.

He said gently: "I am not the Hua Manlou you know, you can call me Qi Tong."

Hua Manlou smiled.

His name is "Yu Qi", and he can indeed be called "Qi Tong".

Lu Xiaofeng: "Can I light the lamp?"

Yu Qi didn't say anything, and Hua Man Lou replied: "Of course."

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Man Lou are good friends. He would come to meet his friends every once in a while.

Hua Man Lou's eyes can't see, and everything has a fixed place, never put in a mess. Lu Xiaofeng knows this small building very well. He is a homeless prodigal son, and this place is like his home.

He found the candlestick in the dark, lit the candle, and took the candlestick to the table, illuminating the faces of the two Hua Man Lou.

Lu Xiaofeng thought they just had similar voices, but he didn't expect that they looked exactly the same!

He was much calmer now, and couldn't help wondering if one of the two Hua Man Lou was Si Kong Zhai Xing.

Besides Si Kong Zhai Xing, who else had such a superb disguise?

Yu Qi tilted his head to look at him and said softly, "You look very tired, do you want to eat something?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "I'm just hungry."

Hua Man Lou stood up: "There should be some food in the kitchen, I'll go get it."

He walked out of the room like a discerning person.

Lu Xiaofeng and the remaining Hua Man Lou looked at each other.

Yu Qi didn't blink the whole time. He smiled slightly: "You must be extremely curious now, otherwise you wouldn't be staring at me like this."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Do you know I'm looking at you?"

Yu Qi looked straight ahead, picked up the teapot on the table, poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Lu Xiaofeng: "People who can't see will perceive more sensitively than ordinary people. What's more, you didn't hide your surprise at all. Not only me, but Hua Man Lou should also know that you are shocked now."

Lu Xiaofeng was very thirsty. He took the teacup and drank it all, then filled it up for himself, and drank three cups in a row before stopping.

He said: "Anyone will be surprised to see that their friend has become two."

Yu Qi blinked slowly and said with a smile: "You must have a lot of doubts now."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Good!"

Yu Qi: "You can ask as much as you want."

Lu Xiaofeng: "If I ask, will you answer?"

Yu Qi smiled: "You can try."

Lu Xiaofeng said with emotion: "No matter the appearance or the temper, you are Exactly the same as Hua Man Lou. If you hadn't just said that you were Qi Tong, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to tell who is the real Hua Man Lou. "

Yu Qi: "How do you know I'm not the real Hua Man Lou?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Are you?"

Yu Qi smiled bitterly: "This is really hard to explain. If it were me, I wouldn't believe it either."

Hua Man Lou came over with the food and put it on the table.

Yu Qi naturally stood up and closed the door to block the cold wind from blowing in.

Hua Man Lou was stunned for a moment, and sat back in his original position: "What are you talking about?"

Yu Qi: "We're talking about the two Hua Man Lou."

Lu Xiaofeng glanced at the food on the table, it was indeed the craftsmanship of Hua Man Lou. He picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, leaving the weird things behind, and couldn't wait to eat.

Hua Manlou: "Haven't you told him yet?"

"I need to think carefully about how to tell him. After all, this matter is too unbelievable, even I can't accept it." Yu Qi frowned, picked up the teacup, and took a sip: "I am indeed Hua Manlou. I have six brothers. I have been blind since childhood and moved out to live alone. I have a friend named Lu Xiaofeng. I live a very leisurely and satisfying life."

Hua Manlou didn't understand, but didn't interrupt him.

Yu Qi: "It snowed heavily today. I collected the snow water and prepared to boil water for tea. After I finished all this, I appeared here. There is no wind or snow here, but it is a little colder. The altar in my hand disappeared, but another Hua Man Lou appeared, inviting me to sit down and drink a cup of plum blossom tea made with snow water."

Hua Man Lou was a little confused. What Yu Qi said was too real. He did do such a thing when it snowed, but he didn't suddenly appear in another place and see another self as Yu Qi said.

System: [How can you say that in front of Hua Man Lou?]

Xue Chen: [Tong'er, Xiao Qi really has no sense of shame. Is this the feeling of not being able to experience feelings? 】

System: [……]

Lu Xiaofeng: "Do you know what day it is today?"

Yu Qi: "October 1st, it is the Cold Clothes Festival."

Lu Xiaofeng: "It has been more than a month since the Cold Clothes Festival!"

"I know." Yu Qi sighed, "He has already told me."

Hua Manlou gradually came to his senses.

He did not discuss the time with Yu Qi.

Yu Qi said this on purpose, just to remind himself not to believe these words.

Lu Xiaofeng: "So you are really Hua Man Lou?"

Yu Qi: "Whether I was or not before, I am not now."

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly said: "I want to touch your face."

Yu Qi was stunned and smiled: "You can touch it."

Lu Xiaofeng put down his chopsticks, picked up the candlestick and walked forward. He first observed the place where the skin of the temples met the hair. There was no obvious change in skin color.

He raised his hand and touched it. Yu Qi's skin was delicate and elastic, warm to the touch, not stiff and cold like some masks used for disguise.

Suddenly, Lu Xiaofeng felt a slight bulge.

He groped twice, and with a light tug, a piece of skin as thin as a cicada's wing was torn off. At the same time, Yu Qi gasped in repressed breath, as if it hurt him.

Hua Man Lou: "Are you okay?"

Yu Qi: "No."

System: [You acted so fake.]

Xue Chen: [But Lu Xiaofeng didn't seem to notice? Isn't he very smart?]

System: [His attention should be on your face. Lu Xiaofeng

was shocked. He raised his hand and touched Yu Qi's face: "You...what's wrong with you..."

Hua Manlou: "What's wrong?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "He did wear a disguise, but the face underneath the disguise is still the same as yours! The difference is that his face is covered with scars, all of which are small cuts!"

Yu Qi: "Maybe they were cut when I traveled through time."

System: [Can time travel give you two faces?]

"Time travel? Do you mean, from a month ago, to this place?" Lu Xiaofeng touched his face again, and this time he didn't feel anything wrong. This face was probably his real appearance, without any other disguise. Lu Xiaofeng was shocked, "What's going on?"

Yu Qi: "Guess?"

Lu Xiaofeng concluded: "You are not Hua Man Lou at all!"

Yu Qi laughed: "I never said I was Hua Man Lou."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Why do you look exactly like Hua Man Lou?"

Yu Qi: "Because I am Qi Tong."

Hua Man Lou could feel that Yu Qi had no ill intentions. He might have wanted to play a joke on Lu Xiaofeng, but he lost his sense of proportion and went a little too far. Fortunately, Lu Xiaofeng is not a person who holds grudges. Sometimes, Lu Xiaofeng is not like an adult at all and often behaves childishly.

The conversation between the two people now is like a child sulking.

Lu Xiaofeng: "I don't believe it. You must have disguised yourself. Do you dare to wash your face?"

Yu Qi stood up: "What's there to be afraid of?" Lu Xiaofeng

: "You are not blind at all!"

Yu Qi: "I am." Lu Xiaofeng

: "You can clearly see it!

" Yu Qi: "Do you have any evidence to prove it?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Aren't you looking at me now? What other evidence do you need?"

Yu Qi: "I'm not looking at you at all. I'm a blind man. A blind man doesn't know where he is looking."

Lu Xiaofeng suddenly raised the chopsticks and poked them towards Yu Qi's eyes, stopping an inch away from him. Yu Qi felt no fear, and did not subconsciously close his eyes for self-defense. His eyeballs did not move at all.

Lu Xiaofeng was a little frustrated: "Why don't you hide?"

Yu Qi: "I told you I'm blind."

He came to the basin and washed his face with cold water. The scar on his face swelled up after it came into contact with water, and gradually fell off his face, returning to his normal appearance.

Yu Qi wiped it clean and turned to look at Lu Xiaofeng: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Your disguise skills are more sophisticated than before. If the story you made up was not too outrageous, I would not have guessed your identity at all."

Yu Qi: "What identity?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Who else in the world can have such a sophisticated disguise except the monkey spirit?"

Yu Qi smiled and did not refute his words. He restored his demeanor in the Flower House and sat down in his original position.

Lu Xiaofeng came over and pushed him: "Why did you think of coming to Hua Man Lou?"

Yu Qi: "Hua Man Lou is a person who loves to make friends. His small building welcomes everyone. If you can come, why can't I come?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Of course you can come."

Yu Qi: "But I have to go."

Lu Xiaofeng: "I just came here and you are leaving?"

Yu Qi: "I'm very busy and don't have time to play with you. When I'm free, I'll come to you to dig earthworms. You definitely can't dig better than me." Lu

Xiaofeng: "Don't brag, how could I lose!"

Yu Qi: "Hua Man Lou, who do you think will win?"

Hua Man Lou smiled: "I don't know who will win between you two. I only know that if you dare to dig earthworms here and make a mess of my yard, I will be very angry."

Yu Qi: "Hua Manlou will get angry too?"

Hua Manlou: "Hua Manlou is also a human being, why wouldn't he be angry?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "The better-tempered a person is, the more terrible he is when he is angry. Hua Manlou has a particularly bad temper, you'd better not provoke him."

Yu Qi: "Of course I know, it's getting late, I'm leaving."

After saying that, he opened the window and jumped out like a fish, then flipped to the roof, without making any sound, and immediately disappeared.

Lu Xiaofeng was stunned: "When did the monkey spirit's lightness skill become so good?"

Hua Manlou smiled: "Maybe what he said is true?"

Lu Xiaofeng felt that there was some special hint in his friend's smile. He felt cold behind his back and pulled the corner of his mouth: "How is it possible?"

-

Yu Qi returned to Fang Yingkan's place, changed out of Hua Manlou's clothes, and dressed up as Fang Yingkan, and walked all the way to his study without any obstacles.

Fang Yingkan was receiving guests inside.

It was already very late, and those who had not left at this time must be important characters.

Yu Qi crossed his arms, leaned against the clean white wall, and looked up at the moon in the sky.

About a quarter of an hour later, the person in the study came out.

The man was a young man of medium build, with a beard on his lips, elegant temperament, and looked like a scholar.

He was stunned when he saw Yu Qi, and turned his head abruptly to look at Fang Yingkan.

Fang Yingkan had a blank expression on his face: "What's wrong?"

The young man said: "No, nothing..."

He pretended that he saw nothing, ignored Yu Qi, and his movements when he left were a little faster, as if something dirty was chasing him.

After the man left, Fang Yingkan came to Yu Qi: "Why are you dressed like me again?"

Yu Qi: "Your surname is Fang, so you don't allow others to have the surname Fang. You look like this, so you don't allow others to look like this. You are so domineering."

System: [Your mouth is getting more and more powerful. 】

Xue Chen: 【A good brain means a good mouth, of course, except Xiao Liu.】

System: 【……】

Fang Yingkan: "What on earth did Master Xue ask you to come here for?"

System: 【I want to know, too.】

Xue Chen: 【Didn't you say that you wanted to use him to build your own network of relationships?】

System: 【But you've been disguising yourself since you came here, and you haven't done any real work at all.】

Xue Chen: 【Disguising is the real work.

Yu Qi smiled and said, "What do you think?"

Fang Yingkan said, "The man just now is called Gu Dongshu, and he is in the jade business. He has promised to buy Taihu stones from me, and they will be delivered in three days. Then you and I can report to Master Xue." Yu

Qi: "Shouldn't this matter be handed over to the Yingfeng Bureau? Why are you looking for local merchants?"

Fang Yingkan said, "When Zhu Jie was in charge of the Yingfeng Bureau, the people suffered heavy losses and the people have long been complaining. The Taihu stones in the folk are not popular. It has been looted long ago, where can we find other stones? Moreover, he holds great power and is deeply trusted by the government. If we take food from the tiger's mouth, there will definitely be casualties. Why should we offend him? Moreover, I am just a marquis. Although my rank is high, I have no real power. How can I manage the Yingfeng Bureau? "

Yu Qi: "Then leave it to me."

Fang Yingkan: "You?"

Yu Qi opened the purse on his waist and took out a fish tag from it, which was the identity symbol of the governor of Xidu.

The fish tag of the big bank is something like an identity certificate, but not everyone is qualified to use it. Only officials above the fifth rank can use the fish tag as an ornament.

Fang Yingkan was surprised at first. Such a small purse could actually hold a fish tag as big as a palm, and then his expression became solemn.

The government gave Master Xue the post of governor of Xidu, but Master Xue handed the fish card directly to the man in front of him.

This man was quite evil. Fang Ying had seen many people, but none of them was as hard for him to see through as this man. He originally thought that this man was sent by Master Xue to monitor him, but after seeing the fish card, he realized that something was wrong.

Yu Qi put the fish card back into his purse: "Am I qualified enough?" Fang

Yingkan: "Of course."

Yu Qi: "If you meet other people, please introduce them to me. I like the beautiful scenery here in Jiangnan, but I'm new here and don't have many friends. It's a bit lonely to travel alone."

Fang Yingkan: "Okay."

Yu Qi raised his hand to embrace him, ignoring his reluctance, smiled and greeted the other people in the yard, and took Fang Yingkan back to the house, and did not leave until late at night.

The next morning, he strictly followed the plan and disguised himself as Yun Heyan, changed into black clothes, held a long sword, and followed behind Fang Yingkan pretending to be his bodyguard.

After meeting the visitors, Fang Yingkan gritted his teeth and accepted the bribes from his subordinates in front of Yu Qi.

Seeing that Yu Qi didn't respond, Fang Yingkan called the servants over and told them to prepare to go out for fun. Half an hour later, he took Yu Qi out.

There were many people who wanted to climb up to the high branch of Shentong Hou. Some people got the news early and waited outside.

Every time they arrived at a scenic spot, Fang Yingkan would introduce different people to Yu Qi, including those who sold grain, oil, silk, and tea, as well as local gang leaders. Basically, he met everyone who had a say in the Jiangnan area.

Yu Qi, who was disguised as Yun Heyan, was tall and had a cold look. He held a sword in his hand and sat upright in the painting boat, watching the singing and dancing girls playing music and dancing, and seemed to be very ignorant of romance.

Fang Yingkan looked comfortable and adapted very well.

Yu Qi looked at the people on the shore and felt that the pleasure boat and the shore were two different worlds.

The beautiful woman next to him filled his glass with wine, smiled at him, and slowly withdrew.

The merchant who was accompanying the guests introduced the delicacies on the table, as if every dish was worth a thousand gold.

Yu Qi tasted the fish on the table and found it was not as delicious as the beef soup.

He put down his chopsticks: "I heard that the biggest merchant in Jiangnan is named Hua."

Gu Dongshu immediately replied: "You are really well-informed. The Hua family is indeed a big family here, but their people have always been low-key and don't like to show off. However, they have noble character and are trustworthy. Therefore, we all like to deal with the Hua family. My shop is rented from the Hua family."

Fang Yingkan: "You want to meet someone from the Hua family?"

Yu Qi shook his head: "No."

System: [The Hua family is innocent, don't harm them.]

Xue Chen: [Of course I know, I'm just a little curious. If they don't have a backer, wouldn't their family have so much money that others would want to see?]

System: [Maybe all of it was used to buy land?]

Xue Chen: [The land will also be wanted by others. Did you know that Zhu Jie's father has been occupying land? They also reported fertile land as wasteland and forced people to buy it at a very low price. I don't know how many people were killed. 】

System: [How did the Hua family do it? 】

Xue Chen: [I'll check it out when I get a chance. 】

The pleasure boat circled the lake again and again. Yu Qi was always cold and indifferent. Fang Yingkan couldn't tell his likes and dislikes from his expression. He stayed in the water all night and didn't get to the shore until dawn.

Yu Qi went back to sleep and didn't wake up until the afternoon.

He re-arranged his disguise, still keeping the Yun Heyan costume, and came to Yingfeng Bureau with the fish card.

After Zhu Jie left Suzhou, the Yingfeng Bureau was handed over to his subordinates.

They knew that Yu Qi was from the Taiping Palace and were very respectful to him. They responded to all of Yu Qi's orders, but there was no intention to implement them.

System: [Now I know why Fang Yingkan didn't look for them.]

Xue Chen: [So annoying, I should be arriving in the capital soon, and will assassinate Zhu Jie in a while.]

System: [Ah? I'm going to assassinate?]

Xue Chen: [How is that possible? Da Mian is a professional!]

Yu Qi returned to Fang Yingkan with a cold face.

Fang Yingkan seemed to have expected that he would run into a wall, so he specially prepared tea. When he came back, he took the initiative to comfort him: "We are from different factions, and Zhu Jie will definitely not let go of the interests in his hands. We don't have to confront him head-on. The people we met yesterday are enough to get things done."

Yu Qi said nothing indifferently.

Fang Yingkan: "Brother Yun is angry?"

When Yu Qi pretended to be Yun Heyan, he said Yun Heyan's name. Fang Yingkan didn't like the pseudonym "Fang Yingci", but he accepted "Yun Heyan" well.

Yu Qi: "Why should I get angry for these people? Have you bought the stones from Gu Dongshu?"

Fang Yingkan: "It's on the way and will be delivered tomorrow afternoon at the latest."

Yu Qi nodded.

Fang Yingkan was about to leave when he suddenly saw the man in black picking up the sword.

His fingers are long and look very powerful, and the way

he holds the sword is pleasing to the eye, and he seems to be an extremely powerful swordsman. Yu Qi drew out the sword, leaned towards Fang Yingkan, and held his hand under his confused eyes, then moved closer with the sword, and gently drew a line of bright red blood on Fang Yingkan's arm.

The blood flowed down the wound.

Yu Qi stepped forward and licked it under Fang Yingkan's shocked eyes.

Xue Chen: [It tastes the same as blood, but the blood in Xiao Qi's mouth is not as good as the taste of the original body in Da Mian's mouth. This is not fragrant at all! ]

System: [There is no need to act so realistically! Haven't you always been perfunctory? ]

Xue Chen: [The way to happiness! Be perfunctory when you should be perfunctory, and act out when you shouldn't be perfunctory! 】

System: [……]

What kind of happy way is this? It's obviously a perverted way! !

Yu Qi couldn't stand the taste. After licking it, he immediately turned around, picked up the tea, rinsed his mouth, and spit it into the spittoon next to him.

He frowned slightly: "You are very unpalatable."

Fang Yingkan: "What are you doing?"

Yu Qi didn't mean to explain. He shook off the blood on the sword, sheathed the sword, and left Fang Yingkan, who was confused and shocked.

-After

arriving in the capital, Yun Heyan did not return to the palace with his original body. He sneaked into Zhu Jie's mansion, squatted on the roof and waited for the night to fall. By the way, he figured out the guarding force. Under the cover of the night, he easily entered Zhu Jie's bedroom and took his life.

He thought about it and killed Zhu Jie's father as well.

Both the father and the son were not good people, and Zhu Chong was behind many things. After Zhu Jie died, Zhu Chong could easily push other people out, or he could use the pain of losing his son to gain Zhao Ji's sympathy, enter the court himself, and take over his son's power naturally.

Keeping Zhu Chong would do more harm than good, so it would be better to let him accompany his son and save the old from sending the young off.

Yun Heyan shook off the blood on the sword, gnawed his left arm, and left quietly.

After arriving in the capital, the original body did not go back to the palace directly, but went to the next door and pretended to look at Xie Heng.

He originally wanted to ask Gong Jiu to bring Xie Heng to the King of Taiping and find an open space for experiments. However, Xie Heng got sick after being exposed to the wind. Even though he took medicine and his fever went down in time, he still coughed badly and had to put his work on hold.

Xue Chen came to Xie Heng's door in a thin white coat.

System: [You won't be infected by Xie Heng, will you?]

Xue Chen: [Probably not? Xie Heng just caught a cold, not a viral cold. And I have opened so many accounts, and I feel that my body is much better than before. Mr.

Hu came out of the kitchen with medicine in his hand. He was stunned for a moment when he saw him: "Master Jiu."

Xue Chen nodded: "Give me the medicine, you go down."

Mr. Hu: "Yes."

Xue Chen took the medicine bowl and came to Xie Heng's bedroom, handed the bowl to Xie Heng, Xie Heng stretched out his hand to take it, and drank it all after it was not too cold, and handed the bowl to Xue Chen, who naturally put it on the table in the distance.

The interaction between the two was fluent and natural, no different from the left hand pouring from the right hand.

Xie Heng was more afraid of cold. He didn't feel anything when he was on the nameless island. After returning to the mainland, the clothes on his body gradually became thicker, but he couldn't get warm himself, so it was useless to wear thick clothes.

Mr. Hu got a charcoal brazier, burned it warm, and placed it next to Xie Heng's bedroom. He also took a few screens and placed them at the door, dividing the already small bedroom into two spaces, so that even if the window outside was opened, the cold wind would not directly rush in.

Xue Chen took a stool and sat next to the brazier. The two vests warmed themselves by the fire and fell asleep unknowingly.

System: [What are you doing here?]

Xue Chen raised his head suddenly and yawned: [Waiting for my brother.]

System: [Why don't you go to see him directly? If he doesn't know you're back, do you have to stay here for a few more days?]

Xue Chen: [No, I didn't come back alone. I brought so many guards with me. I came to Beijing in a grand manner. It's impossible that no one saw me. And the guards are all going back to the palace. If that's the case, and my brother still doesn't know I've returned to the capital, then I'll forgive him.]

System: [Ah? Why forgive him? No, are you angry with him again?]

Xue Chen: [If he can't tell that I've returned, then it proves that he's really a fool. I won't bother with fools.]

System anxious: [What about me?]

Xue Chen: [Although you're stupid, you've been with me for so many days and have learned a lot. You can still meet the standard after some training.]

System: [???]

Xue Chen got up and walked around the room. He came to the window and opened a crack. The cold wind blew on his face, which was a little painful. He immediately closed the window.

Feeling that Xie Heng was lying very uncomfortably, Xue Chen sat over and massaged the vest's legs.

Xue Chen: [I really can't feel anything in my calves, as if Xie Heng is not my vest.]

System powerless: [You've known this for a long time, what's so strange about it.]

Xue Chen: [It feels good.]

He gave up the massage and rubbed Xie Heng's legs. Xie Heng's head was dizzy, his eyes were straight, and he just watched the body move.

The system asked unwillingly: [Didn't you always say that I don't have a brain? Why can't I be a fool?]

Xue Chen: [You were still a little smart when you were scolding me in a roundabout way before. Don't fool me, I couldn't fool my brother, let alone you? I advise you to be a little self-aware. I have a good memory and will not forget what you did in the past just because of your temporary performance. 】

System: [Wuwuwuwu, let me go. 】

Xue Chen: [If you change your ways, I will certainly not make things difficult for you. 】

System: [Really? 】

Xue Chen is silent.

System: [Why don't you say anything? 】

Xue Chen: [I find it interesting to bully you. This is a very important entertainment activity for me and I am reluctant to give it up. 】

System: [……]

After a while, there was a noisy sound outside.

Hu Sheng said outside: "Young Master, Prince, Young Master Xue is here."

Xie Heng had a sore throat, and Xue Chen said: "Let him in."

Gong Jiu entered the house.

He was wearing Xue Chen's clothes, his eyes were gentle, revealing his concern and care. He complained, "Since you're back, why don't you go home?"

Xue Chen asked Xie Heng in a gentle voice, "Would you like some water?"

Xie Heng coughed twice and said the first sentence after his original body arrived, "Okay."

Gong Jiu, "I'll do it."

He poured the water and brought it to Xie Heng, but found that his brother ignored him and handed the water to Xie Heng directly.

Xue Chen helped Xie Heng sit up, watched him drink a few sips, and then coughed softly again.

Gong Jiu asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

Xie Heng shook his head, "My throat is itchy. I'll feel better after coughing for a while."

Gong Jiu didn't care about Xie Heng at all. He was more afraid that his brother would get sick and fall seriously ill again when he returned.

But the eldest brother had no intention of paying attention to him. He could only stand aside and express his concern with his eyes.

Xue Chen: [My brother has no idea where he went wrong.] System: [Don’t talk about him, I don’t know either

.]

Xue Chen asked with concern: [Your memory is really bad, is it about to be scrapped? If you are scrapped, will there be a new system? Can I continue to do the mission?] System: [You only care about the mission and don’t care about me at all!] Xue Chen: [I hope the next system can be kinder and not as mean as you.] System: [Beep-be ... Even if we don't talk about training private soldiers, those shady businesses should be stopped. [After I dealt with the Tiger Power Gang, there are still countless Tiger Power Gangs. The list my brother gave me looks very serious, but in fact they all have their own backers, and may be more difficult to deal with than the Tiger Power Gang.] System: [So you don't want to do it anymore?] Xue Chen: [I spent so much energy to improve these industries, but my brother is still creating new bad industries behind the scenes. Isn't that the same as Fang Yingkan?] Fang Yingkan in the original novel has been doing bad things all the time. When he first started doing bad things, Fang Juxia was behind him helping him pay compensation to the victims and provide for their old age, but he just didn't come forward to teach Fang Yingkan a lesson. Over the years, Fang Yingkan created more and more victims, and Fang Juxia spent more and more energy on this. If Fang Yingkan hadn't deceived Fang Juxia and saw his adoptive mother on the mountain, Fang Juxia would not have remembered to meet him. I don't know whether those victims would be grateful for Fang Juxia's help, or hate him for allowing such a son to appear. Xue Chen would never do such a stupid thing. His expression became more and more grim: [I have to solve the problem from the root.] System: [Are you going to kill him?] After saying this, the system was smoothly blocked by Xue Chen. Gong Jiu was extremely patient and stood behind the entity without saying a word. The entity wanted to make its attitude clear, and it was impossible to give him a good face before his brother admitted his mistake. Xue Chen waited for a long time, but Gong Jiu stood there like a pillar, so he had to let Xie Heng break the deadlock. Xie Heng started coughing as soon as he opened his mouth, so Xue Chen poured him a glass of water and fed it to him to moisten his throat. The disabled young man looked listless: "Are you two going to keep looking at me like this?" Xue Chen said to Gong Jiu: "You get out." Gong Jiu pursed his lips tightly, his expression was cold and hard, and there was grievance in his eyes. He really didn't know what he had done wrong. Did Xie Heng say bad things about him in front of his elder brother? Xie Heng's voice was hoarse, and he said weakly: "What's the point of you driving him out? You might as well make it clear, how did he provoke you?" Gong Jiu: "I want to know too." Xue Chen released the system: [He actually dared to agree! 】 System:【Your temper is getting worse and worse.】 Xue Chen:【Can you blame me for this? If it were you, you would first be kept awake at night by your stupid brother, and then you would clean up his mess. If you are not careful, he might kill his father. You also have to distract yourself by controlling so many bodies. How can your temper be good?】 System:【I don’t know.】 Xue Chen:【I didn’t understand before why there are so many people who are not what they seem. Now I understand that as long as you do a good job on the surface and then abandon your shame, you can be as happy as you want.】 System:【Don’t learn from Xiao Qi!】 Xue Chen:【Xiao Qi is me, and I am Xiao Qi.】

System: [Your standards are too flexible.]
