Gao Qi was startled and looked at the man next to him: "Hey, who are you?"
Yang Wen burst out laughing, I have been sitting in the car for so long, and you treat me like air.
"This is my senior brother, Yang Wen." Yang Yuling explained.
"Oh, I thought it was your boyfriend."
These words immediately made Yang Wen at a loss.
Yang Yuling laughed and said, "You thought he was my husband."
Gao Qi: "..."
Yang asked: "..."
"Ahem, ahem, don't make such jokes when there are outsiders around." Gao Qi's old face was about to turn red. It would be fine if he just made a few jokes in private, but your senior brother said this to you. Looking at his face, he looked as if he had eaten a fly.
I understand. Love is using me as a shield. Don’t you know the law of shields?
Gao Qi could only change the subject: "I feel like the people here aren't very hospitable."
"You killed two of them, and you still want them to welcome you with drums and gongs." Yang Yuling said softly. It was good enough that they didn't take out a knife from somewhere to chop you.
Gao Qi rubbed his nose and explained, "I was fighting back in self-defense."
"Let's go, the elders are waiting for us in the conference room."
Yang Wen next to him felt a sense of crisis. After all, he had seen how powerful Gao Qi was. Even if his junior sister liked him, it made sense. Look, they were walking shoulder to shoulder. If this continued, he would be in danger.
The so-called meeting room was a triangular wooden house in the middle of the village. There were many old men sitting inside, but what surprised Gao Qi was that there was actually an acquaintance sitting inside.
Zheng Yaner.
I came to see it once when I was a monk, and then nothing happened again. Until now, I saw it again, and it looked mysterious.
When the people of Lie family saw the young man Gao Qi, they found it hard to pretend. He had killed one of their elders and a deacon, and yet he was allowed to sit here as if nothing had happened.
"This is Elder Yang Qiong." Yang Yuling introduced.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Elder Yang."
Yang Qiong likes Gao Qi very much, mainly because he was defeated by Feng family last time, and Gao Qi directly killed him, which indirectly avenged him.
"Gao Qi is a handsome man, and he is a good match for Ling'er."
Gao Qi: "..."
Yang Wen felt like vomiting blood in his heart. Elder Yang, you are truly a king who says one thing to one person and another to another person, and who goes with the flow. I think you said the same thing back then, and I still believe it.
"Elder Yang, please be serious." Yang Yuling said softly. Such words should not be said casually.
Yang Qiong patted the raised shoulder and said with a smile: "The girl is shy."
"I think so too." Gao Qi chuckled. This Elder Yang was very much to his liking, and they made fun of Yang Yulin together.
Yang Yuling turned around and glared at him fiercely, while Yang Qiong just smiled and said nothing more.
"Please take a seat." A middle-aged man sitting in the main seat said, he had a strong build, bronze skin, and a well-groomed beard on his chin, looking very manly.
This person is Lie Po, the son of the head of the Lie family.
The Yang family and Gao Qi sat down. Gao Qi looked at Zheng Yaner. He hadn't seen her for many years. She looked more and more feminine, especially with short hair, she looked so handsome.
Suddenly I saw Yan'er glaring at me. Why? She was glaring at me after not seeing me for a long time.
How could Zheng Yan'er not glare? He was surrounded by beauties wherever he went. There were a bunch of them at home and a lot of them outside. Even Yang Yuling from the Yang family sat next to him. He was so honored.
"Before today's meeting, let's resolve some unnecessary misunderstandings." Lie Po said and looked at Gao Qi.
"Half a month ago, an elder of our Lie family secretly joined forces with the Feng family to cause chaos. After a few days of investigation, the matter has been clarified. Thanks to Mr. Gao's intervention, a bigger misunderstanding was avoided."
Hearing this explanation, Gao Qi also sighed. How great a loss would it take for someone to swallow it? He didn't even mention the matter of the deacon.
"Since it's a misunderstanding, just explain it clearly." Gao Qi said with a smile, but the elders sitting next to him were all glaring at him.
Haha, if you have the guts, come along.
Lie Po also forced a smile, and then said: "Let's get to the point. This time when you enter the Shennong Ruins, the treasures inside depend on your luck. You can't rob them privately. Is this okay with everyone?"
Naturally, everyone had no problem with it.
"Also, these three are people sent by the Security Department to participate in the investigation and research." Lie Po pointed at Zheng Yan'er and the other two men.
Zheng Yaner said softly: "I hope everyone will cooperate with the work."
Gao Qi felt secretly happy in her heart. The two middle-aged men next to her were probably protecting her. After all, Yan'er's identity was not simple, and the strength of these two men should not be bad either.
"It's getting late today. After dinner, we'll head straight to the Shennong Ruins."
"Do this?" Gao Qi asked.
"Mr. Gao, it will open at 6 a.m. tomorrow and close at 6 p.m."
Gao Qi said "oh", it really delayed my sleep time.
Nothing major happened after the meeting. Everyone chatted about their own things. Lie Po also returned to his father's study, where he saw an old man sitting in a wheelchair reading a book, his wrinkled face looking very serious.
"They're all here."
The old man closed the book, looked up to the window, and the slightly dazzling sunlight shone on his cheeks.
"Gao Qi and Yang Yuling must stay inside."
"I understand, but the security department showed up unexpectedly, and I'm afraid it might cause more trouble."
"The Shennong Ruins are in crisis, so it's normal for a few people to die."
Hearing his father's words, Lie Po nodded respectfully: "I understand."
"Go, my Lie family's people can't die in vain!"
"yes!"
Outside the house, Gao Qi strode to Zheng Yaner's side.
Zheng Yaner glanced at Gao Qi and said to the two men beside her, "You go first."
"Is this your boyfriend?" one of the men asked jokingly.
Zheng Yaner's beautiful eyes narrowed, and the latter laughed and left with the other one.
Gao Qi chuckled and said, "Yan'er, are you so fierce?"
"If you have to fart, do it now."
"Why are you here too? Do you have some important mission?"
Zheng Yaner crossed her arms over her chest, squeezing out her deep cleavage and making her look taller. If she wore a leather jacket and leather pants, she would be an investigator.
"None of your business."
"Yan'er, why are you so angry?"
"I get angry when I see you."
Gao Qi smiled bitterly: "What are you talking about? When have I, your brother Gao, ever let you down? I'm here to help you."
"Then there is indeed something I need your help with."
"What? Brother Gao, I will never refuse."
"Get out of my way."
Gao Qi: "..."
Watching Yan'er's sexy back as she left, Gao Qi didn't know where he had offended her. Could it be that his wife had found too many men, so he was angry and didn't invite her to go along?
"You really are so flirtatious. As long as she's a pretty girl, she must be related to you." A voice came from behind.
