Why does Song Qingqing feel so uncomfortable just thinking about this?
Why do they have to be brothers? Pshaw, this isn't the time to think about that.
She didn't see Sikong Xingchen today, so what should she do next?
Or, she could sneak into the Sikong family's house again tomorrow night.
She must find Sikong Xingchen.
Meanwhile, Sikong Xingchen, whom Song Qingqing was thinking about, was currently locked in a secret room.
His limbs were bound with iron chains of unknown material.
His clothes were stained with blood, and his once handsome face was now covered in a grime.
He sat with his eyes closed against the wall, as if all his strength had been drained from his body.
Outside this secret room, there were several red-clad exterminators guarding it.
A door opened, and Sikong Leiyun appeared.
Hearing the noise, Sikong Xingchen opened his eyes, looked at his grandfather, and said the first thing he said, "You can't touch her."
"If you agree to marry the princess of Lou Kingdom, I will not touch her. If you do not agree, she will die."
Sikong Leiyun's words were utterly cold-blooded: "You know my methods very well, don't you?"
Yes, Sikong Xingchen knew very well.
He could even have his own grandson subjected to torture, let alone Song Qingqing, a mutant.
It seems he has no intention of letting Song Qingqing off the hook.
But there was one thing Sikong Xingchen didn't understand: "Why does it have to be me?"
I can step down and give up the position of head of the family; the princess can also be given to one of my brothers who has taken the position.
"I just want to leave the family and spend my last three years with her, is that not allowed?"
In the end, Sikong Xingchen's expression was filled with deep sorrow.
He only has three years if he can't become a mutant.
But why are they unwilling to grant him even such a small request?
Yes, he admitted that the Sikong family had spent a lot of money on him.
But he had already served the Sikong family for nearly ten years.
Could it be that this isn't enough to offset the cost of their training?
Sikong Xingchen misunderstood. It was precisely because he was so outstanding, helping the Sikong family to manage their business at the age of sixteen and helping the family reach its current status, that Sikong Leiyun was reluctant to let him go.
Once Sikong Xingchen leaves the Sikong family, there will be no one who can take over this vast family business.
Don't ask why Sikong Leiyun didn't come himself.
Because he doesn't have that ability either.
For a family as powerful as the Sikong family, finding a second Sikong Xingchen is simply impossible.
Therefore, in order to keep him alive and to prevent him from dying, Sikong Leiyun had to kill Song Qingqing.
Thinking of this, Sikong Leiyun's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Seeing this, Sikong Xingchen became even more convinced that his grandfather would not let Song Qingqing off the hook.
If that's the case, what other choice does he have?
"I agree to marry the princess, you can't touch her."
"......"
Song Qingqing was unaware of what was happening here.
The next day, in the morning, she met Liu Fugui at a teahouse.
The other party arrived in Kyoto early and had already helped Song Qingqing get a general idea of the city.
"Qingqing, these are the locations of the residential areas and the farmers' markets that I found."
Based on my investigation, there are currently no vegetable and fresh produce stores like ours.
There are no vegetable shops that specialize in selling vegetables.
I think things would go very smoothly if we opened here.
Liu Fugui handed over all the information he had gathered to Song Qingqing.
The latter took it and examined it carefully.
“Great, there are no vegetable shops yet, so we can definitely seize the opportunity.” Song Qingqing casually took out a pen from her pocket and drew circles on it.
Then he added, "Later, we'll go buy a shop and a house."
Let's start with three houses, and they should be big.
She lives in one apartment, and the other two are staff dormitories.
Since everyone is here to help her expand her territory, they definitely need a place to stay.
As for the shop, it's because she wants to buy it quickly before prices rise.
Now she doesn't have to worry about money at all. In addition to her daily income of hundreds of thousands, she also has her grandmother's gold and jewelry, which is equivalent to half a basketball court.
If she really needs money, she can just take some gold.
That's how extravagant it is to be rich. If you want to open a shop, you first buy the shop and then recruit the staff.
No wonder people say that rich people are more likely to succeed.
That makes perfect sense.
Now Song Qingqing is experiencing this feeling.
"Okay, Uncle Guoqiang and the others will be here today too. I'll go pick them up later."
"Okay, it's up to you now."
Just then, Song Guoqiang and the pale-faced scholar suddenly appeared.
What are you talking about?
When Song Guoqiang saw Song Qingqing, he quickly walked over and sat down between the two of them.
The pale-faced scholar stood behind Song Qingqing.
Last time, Song Qingqing and Wang Manni came to Kyoto together. The pale-faced man was left in Qingcheng by Song Qingqing to help Song Guoqiang keep things under control.
Things in Qingcheng are proceeding smoothly, which is why the two of them traveled here overnight.
"I was just saying I was going to pick you up, I didn't expect you to arrive so soon," Song said with a smile.
"Why would I need you to pick me up? With Bai Sheng here, I just need to follow him." Song Guoqiang glanced back at the pale-faced scholar, utterly impressed by his abilities.
They had only gotten off the car two hours earlier, but the person knew exactly where Song Qingqing was. This alone surprised Song Guoqiang so much that he didn't know how to react.
Upon hearing this, Song Qingqing glanced at the pale-faced man and saw him smiling smugly at her, so she returned the smile.
"Since you're all here, let's go shopping together this afternoon. We'll split up and go in two directions, that way we can complete the task faster."
"Fine, you decide."
The matter was settled, and the four of them first had lunch, and then went to buy something.
In one afternoon, the two teams acquired eight storefronts.
It's because they were willing to spend money and were quick to offer prices; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so fast.
As evening fell, Song Qingqing returned to Wang Manni's house, only to find Song Qingyi there.
As soon as the other person saw Song Qingqing return, they immediately stepped forward and said, "Qingqing, you're back! Come and see, this is the bridesmaid dress I prepared for you. Try it on and see if it fits."
As she spoke, she took out a pink halter-neck bridesmaid dress.
He kept gesturing in front of Song Qingqing.
Song Qingqing didn't want to play along, so she brushed her hand away and said, "Song Qingyi, you've known all along that Xingchen and I are in a relationship."
Isn't that right?
Upon hearing Song Qingqing's words, Wang Manni was stunned, and then exclaimed, "Qingqing, what did you say? You and Sikong Xingchen are actually dating?"
When Song Qing saw Wang Manni rushing towards her, her expression froze for a moment, but she quickly composed herself.
Even if Song Qingqing and Sikong Xingchen are dating, so what?
The person he is going to marry now is Song Qingyi.
