Chapter 267 Are You Afraid of Me?
The strong man cut off one of his fingers and blood spurted out.
Everyone in the audience closed their eyes and dared not look. When the sound of falling knives was heard, they secretly glanced over. When they saw the bloody scene, their faces turned pale.
Song Ruize remained calm throughout the whole process.
Whether it was the sturdy man swinging the knife or the finger knife rising and falling, he watched calmly, as if he was watching a play, and a very boring one at that.
"Let's go..." The strong man was extremely weak.
This time Song Ruize did not stop him.
"Clean it up." Song Ruize said to the guy next to him.
He stood up and looked at Li Taohua: "Take Yinyin to see the doctor. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Brother..." Qin Huiyin called him. "Aren't you going to take me there?" Song Ruize froze there.
He raised his eyes to look at her, and saw that her expression was the same as before, without fear, disgust or alienation.
He came over and supported her: "I'll take you to the clinic."
Li Taohua instructed the waiter beside her: "Drive the carriage out."
Tang Yichen wanted to follow, but was stopped by Li Taohua: "I'll go with you. The store is in such a mess, we need someone to take charge, you stay and help."
Tang Yichen watched Li Taohua and Song Ruize take Qin Huiyin away.
"Luwu, shouldn't I have stopped the situation just now?"
Tang Luwu's face turned pale: "Brother, I understand your concerns. You just think these methods are too cruel. To be honest, I am afraid too."
Who wouldn’t be afraid?
Her father was still lying there retching, his legs trembling and he couldn't even stand steadily.
Looking at the guests next to them, their eyes were full of fear. They were afraid that if today's incident spread out, no one would dare to come to Chuan Chuan Xiang to cause trouble.
However, there is an advantage to doing this, which is that it can save a lot of trouble.
Not to mention the distant future, let’s just talk about the present. The compensation of nine hundred taels of silver is ready-made benefit.
Tang Luwu is no longer the little village girl she used to be. These days, she has been running a shop with Qin Huiyin and has seen all kinds of people. She knows that the way of a gentleman cannot suppress a villain. Only people like Song Ruize who are ruthless are feared by everyone.
Doctor Wei bandaged Qin Huiyin's wound, took out a bottle of ointment, and said, "Fifty taels."
"Are you robbing me?" Li Taohua was furious.
"Aren't we robbing now? My clinic's business is not good. It's rare for me to meet a rich man, so I have to take the opportunity to rob more." Doctor Wei said.
"Mom, the master is teasing you on purpose. This bottle of ointment cannot be sold for fifty taels of silver, but five taels of silver is required. You can give it to your second sister first, and I will prepare the ointment for you next time." Tang Yi said with a smile.
"You little bastard, I'm your master, and you're ruining my business." Doctor Wei patted Tang Yixiao's back.
"This is my mother and second sister, how can you blackmail them?" Tang Yi said with a smile, "Second sister, don't worry, the ointment given by Master is very effective and will not leave scars."
"Thank you, Doctor Wei." Qin Huiyin thanked him.
"You better be careful next time, girl. A girl's appearance is so important. If it gets deeper, even my ointment will be useless. It will be so ugly if you leave a scar."
"knew."
"What's wrong with you? You have had a cold face from just now until now. If you don't know, you would think you are the one who is injured. What's on your mind?"
"No." Song Ruize said calmly, "Can she move now?"
"Of course, it's just a scratch on my forehead, a little skin broken, nothing serious."
"I'll take you back to rest."
Li Taohua saw that Song Ruize had something to say, so she said, "It's not far from here to Chuan Chuan Xiang. How about you two walk back and I'll take a carriage to buy some things?"
"good."
Walking out of the clinic, Qin Huiyin touched his forehead.
Song Ruize grabbed her wrist and stopped her: "Don't touch it."
"Do you think Doctor Wei's medicine will work?"
"He has good medical skills, there will be no problem."
"Brother, are you angry?" Qin Huiyin pulled his arm and shook it. "Don't be angry. I was not prepared, otherwise I would have hidden far away."
"It's not this..." Song Ruize lowered his eyes, "Are you... afraid of me?"
"Why should I be afraid of you?" Qin Huiyin tilted her head to look at him. "If you say it's because of what happened just now, I can't thank you enough, so why would I be afraid of you? But brother, the means you showed in front of others are too cruel. This is harmful to your reputation. In the future, when others mention your name, the first thing they think of is these bad things."
"Do you think I care?" Song Ruize touched her hair.
He only cared whether she was afraid of him.
As long as she is not afraid of him, even if everyone in the world is afraid of him, what does he care?
"Brother, you are so nice." Qin Huiyin pulled his arm. "I am the luckiest person in the world to have you accompany and protect me."
"Yinyin..." Song Ruize looked at her, "Lord Wen came to me today and asked me what my plans are for next year."
"Next year?" Qin Huiyin didn't quite understand.
"He wants to take me to the capital and give me an official position in the Ministry of Works. It may not be very high at the beginning, perhaps just an inconspicuous position in the Ministry of Works."
"Then you must go, of course." Qin Huiyin was excited. "This is something that many people can't even dream of, what are you hesitating about?"
Wait a moment……
Capital city.
In the original novel, Song Ruize became a powerful and treacherous minister, rising step by step from being the eldest princess's male favorite to finally becoming a good knife by the emperor's side.
If he went to the capital, would he go down the path of no return again?
"What are you thinking about?" Song Ruize keenly noticed that something was wrong with her mood.
"Nothing. Brother, I support you. You go to the capital first. I will go there too if I have the chance." Qin Huiyin said, "But you must take good care of yourself."
"It's still early for next year, and now we're just planning ahead. Maybe there will be other changes next year." Song Ruize said, "You go in, I'll go back first."
Qin Huiyin pulled him in to eat, but Song Ruize refused.
She stood at the door and watched Song Ruize ride away on horseback.
Song Ruize has grown taller and stronger.
He is only fifteen years old. I can’t imagine how stunning and charming Song Ruize will be in a few years.
"Such an outstanding young man, who knows who will get the chance in the future." Qin Huiyin muttered.
"Yinyin..." Xia Ruwan jumped out of the carriage.
Qin Huiyin was startled by her action and shouted, "Slow down."
Xia Ruwan ran over and looked her up and down, her eyes resting on her forehead: "Is the wound deep? Will it leave a scar?"
Qin Huiyin reached out to touch it, but Xia Ruwan slapped her hand away.
"Don't touch it."
"Doctor Wei said it's okay. Just apply the medicine three times a day and it will be fine in a few days." Qin Huiyin said, "Are you back from outside the city?"
"I recently went to discuss a business deal, and it went well. I just came back and heard that something happened to Chuan Chuan Xiang." Xia Ruwan said angrily, "That guy surnamed Li is so shameless. He couldn't compete with me in business, so he resorted to underhanded tactics."
