Chapter 216: Being protected is arrogant
Qi Luo was at the old house, and that night after get off work Qi Wuyu still returned to the old house.
The atmosphere of the Qi family dinner tonight was particularly different due to the participation of Qi Wuyu. The most obvious manifestation was that the younger generations were even more silent at dinner than at lunch, and few of the elders spoke. Qi Wuyu's second uncle and second aunt kept their heads down the whole time, trying to reduce their presence.
With Qi Wuyu around, no one would ask Qi Luo to leave "alone" anymore.
On the way back to Wenyan Courtyard, Qi Luo told Qi Wuyu that the old man had called her and Qi Yaoyang away alone this afternoon and openly tried to provoke them.
"Brother, what do you think your grandfather wants to do?"
"Who knows him?"
Qi Wuyu slowed down his pace and turned his head to look at her: "But the old man is right about one thing. You did have a closer relationship with Qi Yaoyang in the past, at least much closer than with me."
"Really? I don't believe it."
Qi Luo looked numb.
Here it comes again, the smell of vinegar that comes out everywhere at any time.
"Do you think I am lying to you because you have lost your memory? What I said is all true. When you met me before, you either avoided me from a distance or lowered your head when you greeted me. Your voice was as thin as a mosquito. But it was not like this with Qi Yaoyang. Whether you greeted me or chatted with me, you were calm and composed. Occasionally, I would even see you smiling at Qi Yaoyang."
"You never smiled at me."
Qi Luo: “…”
"Brother, let's just say, is there a possibility that the reason I treat you differently from others is that you are different in my heart? Is it because I am shy when I treat you like that in front of you?"
"Impossible!" Qi Wuyu denied it immediately without any hesitation.
"You don't look shy at all, you are clearly afraid. You are very afraid of me! I don't know why I should be afraid. I have never hit you or scolded you. On the contrary, I have helped you a lot. It's really sad that you are afraid of me."
Qi Luo: “…”
Why are you getting angrier the more you talk?
"Okay, okay, let's put this aside for now. My words, which I don't remember, won't have much reference value. Let's get back to business. Is it okay for me to break up with your grandfather? He behaved very normally at the dinner table just now. You can't tell that he has broken up with me."
"Don't worry about it. He was the one who wanted to break up first, not you. If he wants to show his displeasure, you should show it to him. How dare he show his displeasure to you? I'm not sitting there for show."
"..." This gives him another chance to be narcissistic.
"Yes, yes, brother is the best. No one in the family is afraid of you."
Qi Wuyu glanced at her.
“…”
"Except for me, except for me, I am not afraid of you. I am not afraid of you, okay."
"You don't look like you're afraid of me. You're much more pleasing to the eye now than the you who used to hide when I saw you. You should keep it up."
"Yes, yes, whatever you say is what it is."
Can we still talk about business happily?
Perhaps realizing that she was reaching her limit, Qi Wuyu stopped teasing her just in time to avoid a mess later.
Let's get back to business: "Grandfather is so impatient because I've pushed him into a corner. I've done a lot of things in the past six months. They didn't show it at first. They just thought that I was ruthlessly eliminating dissidents and my methods were a little less gentle than before."
"They will be alert, but they won't take it too seriously. Maybe it's because I've been focusing more on filming these years, and they've been focusing on the internal affairs of Qi's company. They don't really think I can really do anything to them. This gives me the opportunity to surprise them and give them a fatal blow."
"They probably never dreamed that I could force them to this point in just half a year. They thought they had made arrangements over the years and could return to China to get what they wanted, and they were willing to give up everything they had run overseas. Little did they know that their giving up their overseas businesses was exactly what I wanted."
Qi Wuyu said it all in just a few words, but Qi Luo knew that this process would not be so easy.
"So what you mean is that they had been planning for many years and had made quiet arrangements in China, but they didn't expect that all their self-proclaimed secret arrangements were discovered and cleaned up by you one by one. Then they gave up their overseas businesses and returned to China, thinking that they could realize their ambitions, but in fact, they were completely out of your control?"
Qi Wuyu praised: "Smart."
"I have never met your third uncle, but I have met your third brother Qi Wumin and your grandfather. None of them look stupid. The plans they have been hiding for so many years should not be so easy to detect and clean up. How did you detect it and clean it up quietly in just half a year?"
Qi Wuyu paused: "I'm awesome."
Qi Luo felt that things were not that simple.
She admitted that Qi Wuyu was very powerful, but no matter how powerful he was, he could not destroy the other party's plan that had been hidden for who knows how many years within half a year just by being "powerful".
There must be something here that she doesn't know.
"Brother, I'm going to ask you, have you noticed their wrongdoings a long time ago... The "they" I'm talking about includes your grandfather. Have you noticed their wrongdoings a long time ago, or did you only notice it in the past six months?"
It has nothing to do with the fact that she has no clear memory of the past. Everyone says that Qi Wuyu's big moves in Qi's company started after her car accident. Doesn't that mean it has been in the past six months?
Qi Wuyu didn't say anything for a long time.
Just when Qi Luo thought he wouldn't answer, he suddenly spoke.
He said: "You can say that I noticed it a long time ago, or you can say that I noticed it only half a year ago."
Qi Luo had a face full of question marks.
"Excuse me, I don't quite understand what you mean."
Qi Wuyu didn't want to say more. He smiled and rubbed her hair and said, "It's okay. You will understand it later." He held her hand and said, "Don't think too much now. Holding hands and walking is the most important thing."
“…”
After staying in the Qi family's old house for another day, Qi Luo went to the set to continue filming.
On the day she went to the set to film, the second grandfather of the Qi family officially moved back and took a flight to Kyoto today.
On the set, Qi Luo met Lou Xiaoxiao again.
Qi Luo had just finished filming a scene and was sitting in the lounge waiting for the next one when Lou Xiaoxiao walked towards her.
Qi Luo motioned for her to sit down, but Lou Xiaoxiao didn't sit down. She just stood and talked: "Lou Yiheng was very disappointed that you didn't go that day."
"It can't be helped. I have work to do and can't leave. And your brother seemed to be in good condition during the video call that day. He was the one who told me not to go to Lingnan for the time being."
"Just because he told you not to go for now doesn't mean he doesn't want you to go. Besides, he's also your brother, and he values you as his sister more than me."
Qi Luo smiled and said nothing, not responding to her words.
Lou Xiaoxiao didn't care either, and continued, "Su Qiluo, let me remind you that Lou Yiheng is Lou Yiheng, and Su Tao is Su Tao. What Su Tao did has nothing to do with Lou Yiheng. Su Tao privately sent Su Ci to find you that day, and Lou Yiheng didn't know about it beforehand. Afterwards, he found out that he had caused a lot of trouble for the Su family. The Su family is Su Tao's minions, and causing trouble for the Su family is equivalent to causing trouble for Su Tao."
"But the Su family is not doing well recently. Lou Yiheng may not be the only one causing trouble for the Su family recently. Young Master Qi is very nice to you."
Qi Luo raised his eyebrows slightly and did not comment.
Qi Wuyu didn't say anything, and she didn't ask, but she had expected that Qi Wuyu would definitely not do nothing when he found out that Su Ci went to Yuncheng to block her.
With the support of a powerful backer, he can be so arrogant, hey!
