Chapter 741 A fatal question
Qiao Zheng packed up the things in the store with his bodyguards and ran away in a hurry.
The store's glass door was smashed and wouldn't be repaired until the afternoon. Ruan Qi simply gave the store employees half a day off and gave them some red envelopes to calm them down.
After finishing the work, Ruan Qi took small steps to get closer to Nie Beilou.
“Master…”
Nie Beilou glanced at her coldly.
Ruan Qi shrank her neck guiltily, blinked her big innocent eyes, and tugged at his sleeve with her little hand.
"Master, Xiaoqi misses you so much that I've lost my appetite and become so thin..."
Nie Beilou chuckled and said, "You've lost weight, but you've become braver."
“…” The little girl burped when her master scolded her.
She was about to continue playing the victim when a familiar voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
"What happened?"
When Ruan Qi heard the voice, she quickly turned to look at the door.
Xi Jiu, dressed in a black suit, walked in slowly with sharp steps.
He first glanced at the broken glass door, then quickly caught sight of the little girl. After confirming that she was not injured, his tense features relaxed slightly.
Ruan Qi didn't know that Xi Jiu went to the airport to pick up Nie Beilou. Seeing him at this time was a little surprised and a little delighted.
"Jiujiu!"
She wanted to run over happily, but after taking a few steps, Nie Beilou pulled her back by the back of the collar.
Like a kitten being pinched by the scruff of the neck, the little girl cried out "Master" in a timid voice. Then, under Nie Beilou's cold gaze, she fell silent, looking miserably at Xi Jiu, who was not far away.
Xi Jiu felt soft-hearted when he saw her looking at him, and he really wanted to snatch the little girl from Nie Beilou.
However, considering the sustainable development in the future, he suppressed his impulse and said respectfully to Nie Beilou, "Mr. Beilou, I have booked a private room in the VIP building to welcome you."
There are only a few people in the whole of China who can be treated with such respect by the head of the Xi family.
However, Nie Beilou was not flattered at all. He said "hmm" in a cold tone and turned to ask Ruan Qi, "Can I ask for leave from the crew?"
Ruan Qi nodded quickly, like a chicken pecking at rice.
The master is here to kill us, so we have to invite him even if we can’t!
"Okay." Nie Beilou loosened her collar, turned around and walked out the door, "Call Mu Nan and Xiang Yang, and go to the VIP building together. I'll settle the score with you!"
…
Ruan Qi has been to the VIP building twice.
The first time was when she was tricked by Ruan Chunhua into a blind date with Dong Qicheng from Fengyu Group, and this time she was taken away by Nie Beilou to settle the score.
She deeply felt that this place might not be suitable for her.
In the box, Nie Beilou sat in the main seat and Ruan Qi sat on his left.
Xi Jiu glanced at the little girl and was about to go over and sit next to her when he saw Nie Beilou pointing at Nie Heng.
"You sit next to your senior sister."
Nie Heng glanced at Xi Jiu nervously, then took small steps and moved over reluctantly.
Seeing him dawdling, Nie Beilou slammed the table impatiently, "Why are you dawdling getting into the bridal sedan?!"
Nie Heng shuddered with fear and sat down next to Ruan Qi as fast as he could.
Nie Beilou glared at him coldly, then raised his narrow black eyes to Xi Jiu, "Xi family boy, come sit on my right."
Xi Jiu glanced at Ruan Qi, who was sitting on Nie Beilou's left, and walked silently to his right and sat down.
There was only one person between us, but it felt like the entire universe was between us.
Even more miserable than the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.
Not long after, Ruan Munan and Xu Xiangyang arrived.
After the dishes were served, Nie Beilou placed his chopsticks on the table and posed his first fatal question:
"Tell me, when did you two get together?"

Dear readers, please take note—my updates have been a bit erratic lately for two reasons. First, there were some unexpected events at home. Second, I've hit a wall. Those of you who've been following me know that I also hit a wall with my first two books, and couldn't write anything. Please give me some time to work through this bottleneck. Thank you, and I apologize! ~
