Chapter 71 In ancient times, not allowing people to sleep was torture!



After Shangguan Qing walked out of the dungeon, he found that Yu Hai had returned to the store.

"Where did you go just now? I didn't see you." she asked.

He pointed to the beach and explained seriously, "I saw that the wind and waves were light today, and there was a little sunshine, so I went to the beach for a while."

Shangguan Qing looked out the window in the direction of his finger, remained silent, and walked to the front desk with a serious expression and sat down.

"Next time no one is in the store, remember to lock the door."

If someone accidentally enters and touches something they shouldn’t touch, it would be no joke if someone died.

"Okay, sir." Yu Hai lowered his head slightly.

Shangguan Qing opened the counter drawer and his expression suddenly became heavy. How come the wooden box that was previously placed here was gone?

She frowned slightly and opened the next drawer.

"Why are you here?"

Strange, she clearly put it on the top layer.

Yu Hai heard her talking but couldn't hear clearly, "What's wrong, sir?"

Shangguan Qing: "It's okay."

She opened the wooden box and found the two tiger talismans still inside.

The old nun said before that this tiger talisman was destined to be with her, and maybe, like the dagger, it was also something she had when she was alive.

Since I'm going to visit Grandpa Ye Chuzhou tomorrow, I might as well take it with me. Maybe it can provide some clues.

She looked at Yu Hai and said, "I won't be in the antique shop tomorrow. You can make your own arrangements for what you want to do."

"Yes, sir."

......

evening.

Cheng Ji had just returned to Cheng Group and the quarterly shareholders' meeting had just begun, but he unexpectedly received an uninvited guest.

Cheng Ji sat at the top, and Qin Hao walked straight to the seat closest to him and sat down.

She crossed her legs, tilted her head back with disdain, and turned her chair to look at him.

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became tense.

Cheng Ji glanced at Qin Hao and tapped the table. His voice was steady and powerful. "Medical research and development is the core competitiveness of our group in the future. We will continue to increase research and development funds in the next quarter."

Qin Hao sneered when he heard this.

The chair spun half a circle, and he looked at Cheng Ji provocatively, "R&D! R&D! You've been wasting money on R&D, and there's more money to be made. Do you think we're playing the savior game with you?"

"We are businessmen, not philanthropists!" He tapped the table with his knuckles. "Mr. Cheng likes to do charity, so please open your own charity company."

Cheng Ji's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. He stood up slowly, and his tall body cast a shadow that could not be ignored.

He looked around, taking in the expressions of every shareholder.

"Don't forget, the Cheng Group is named after Cheng! I can give you shares, and I also have the ability to take them back. As for making money, which of your current assets is not given to you by Cheng? Be greedy or you will choke to death!"

After saying this, he glanced around with a stern look, carrying an irresistible majesty.

"If you think the Cheng family's temple is too small to accommodate all of you big Buddhas? If you are not satisfied, feel free to get out!"

Suddenly, the air in the conference room seemed to freeze.

Qin Hao's face turned pale and blue. He opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word to refute.

The shareholders around exchanged subtle glances to show their silent stance.

Although Qin Hao was right that more profits could be made without engaging in research and development and charity, Cheng Ji was the backbone of the Cheng Group and his words were authoritative.

Cheng Ji's determined gaze swept across everyone, finally stopping on Qin Hao.

"Do you still have any opinions now?"

With no one supporting him, Qin Hao chose to keep silent.

After the meeting, Cheng Ji walked up to him.

"What I'm saying now is based on the relationship we've had over the past ten years. I advise you that Qianyue loves the Qin family very much, but it's best to let her make her own choice in matters of the heart. She's your biological sister, not a commodity to be traded."

After saying that, he left the meeting room.

Qin Hao didn't understand what he said.

Isn't Qianyue dating a new boyfriend introduced by her family and is very happy? Why did he say that?

......

It was already past eight o'clock in the evening when Cheng Ji finished his official business, and the seaside was already shrouded in darkness.

He pushed open the shop door and saw Shangguan Qing wiping the antique carefully and seriously, while Youxuan was sleeping soundly on the sofa.

Hearing the movement at the door, Shangguan Qing glanced behind him, then raised the corner of his mouth, "You are here, wait for me, I will clean up quickly."

Actually it’s not dirty, I just feel like cleaning when I’m upset.

He walked slowly towards Shangguan Qing, "Do you want my help?"

"Don't!" She stopped him quickly, "You can't touch these. Have you forgotten the lesson from last time?"

Hearing this, Cheng Ji remembered the first time he touched an antique and got burned.

"Okay." He had no choice but to stay by the side.

Shangguan Qing carefully put the antique in his hand back to its original place, looked around, and suddenly frowned.

"Where's Yu Hai?"

She muttered to herself, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

He has disappeared quite a lot in the past two days.

"Has something happened? Why don't you call and ask?" Cheng Ji asked.

Shangguan Qing shook his head. "Maybe he went to the beach again."

As she spoke, she pulled her phone out of her pocket, her finger hovering over the screen, hesitating whether to press the number.

Shangguan Qing frowned slightly, but finally put down his phone slowly and decided to wait and see.

"Youxuan!" she shouted.

Youxuan screamed "Ah" and jumped up, his eyes were sleepy, he turned his head blankly and looked at Shangguan Qing.

"Big... Oh no." He glanced at Cheng Ji next to him and changed his address, "Sister Shangguan, it's already dark, and you won't let me sleep. In ancient times, not letting people sleep was torture!"

He rubbed his eyes and complained.

Shangguan Qing walked over and kicked the sofa leg. "I'll give you a task. Find Yu Hai back."

As soon as Youxuan heard the word "mission", he immediately jumped off the sofa and responded with a serious expression.

"Yes, Sister Shangguan."
