Chapter 346: The Angry Warlords of the Republic of China vs. the Educated and Well-mannered Daughter from Overseas
Especially weak women.
As the commander-in-chief, there were countless forces that wanted to establish connections with this master and win him over. According to normal people's thinking, a tough and iron-blooded man should be paired with a delicate and sweet-talking woman. So on the day that the master of the Si family moved into Jincheng, his mansion was filled with all kinds of beauties. But in the end, the beauties were expelled from the Si department without even seeing the third master.
The original words of this gentleman are——
"A bunch of weaklings, sent to the battlefield, they wouldn't even be enough to be shot by the enemy."
Quan Jiu couldn't help but look up at the dressing mirror in the boudoir.
The woman in the mirror had long apricot-colored curly hair that reached her waist. Under the black mesh hat, her tall and small nose bridge was revealed. Further down, her red lips were slightly parted, drawing a nonchalant arc. She was wearing a white cheongsam with a pearl crescent shape, and white lace gloves wrapped around her slender arms. The well-cut cheongsam perfectly outlined the woman's curvy figure, with a thin waist and plump hips.
Liu Jiaojiao lives up to her name, with a pretty and beautiful appearance. Her charm is mixed with a hint of fragility. Her sweet smile makes people feel that she has a beautiful face and bright eyes.
Quan Jiu looked at the cheongsam that was slit to the middle of the thigh, and lay on the chaise longue as lazy as a cat. Her every move was as graceful as a willow swaying in the wind, and the two strands of hair on her cheeks brushed gently in the wind, adding a bit of seductive charm.
She looked around and was sure of only one thing—
Liu Jiaojiao is definitely the type that Mr. Si Sanye hates the most.
Quan Jiu's slender white legs were placed on the side of the chaise longue, and she lay there with her eyes closed, resting.
"So the fragment of the Lord God is not with Li Yang?"
Her goal is to collect the male protagonist's fragments. Since 001 asked him to conquer other men, it means that the fragments are definitely not with Li Yang.
001 responded with a perfunctory “hmm”.
The male protagonist's fragments would never fall on an ordinary person. Looking at Jincheng, Si Jinnian is currently the most suspicious person, so he urged Quan Jiu and Si Jinnian to meet.
Quan Jiu waved his hand: "Flirting with men is not as exciting as flirting with girls."
She was completely immersed in her precious daughter's opera singing.
…
Quan Jiu went to the Pear Garden for three consecutive days, specifically to catch Kong Manqing's performances, and spent a fortune every time. In the end, Kong Manqing felt embarrassed and sent a servant to tell her that she wanted to see her.
Backstage of the theater.
Kong Manqing looked at this beautiful and dignified young lady, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Everyone knows Liu Jiaojiao's beauty.
The Liu family has a young lady who is both talented and beautiful. All the rich young men in the city know about it. It is rumored that as soon as Liu Jiaojiao turned sixteen, there was an endless stream of young men proposing marriage to her. However, this young lady has different ideas from ordinary people. She keeps clamoring to study abroad, learn advanced Western culture, and come back to build the motherland.
This study abroad lasted for three full years.
"I appreciate Miss Liu's kindness, but the reward is too valuable. I cannot accept it."
Kong Manqing took out a brocade bag, which contained today's reward money. She handed the bag back to Quan Jiu.
Quan Jiu looked at her with a smile. The beauty's voice was so sweet, like the echo of a brook or the gentle spring breeze.
"There's no way you can get money back once you've spent it. I'm giving this reward willingly. Please accept it, Miss Kong."
Wow, my daughter is so cute!
I want to pull your face.
Kong Manqing wanted to persuade them, but suddenly there was a commotion outside the door. The shouting and fighting became louder and louder, and even the backstage could hear it clearly.
She watched as men in gray-green military uniforms suddenly poured into the dressing room, and a slight frown appeared between her brows.
He is the Third Master’s man.
"We are searching for the fugitive. Please cooperate with us, Miss Kong." Xue Cheng showed the arrest warrant.
Kong Manqing shook her head: "There are only Miss Liu and I in this dressing room."
After hearing this, Quan Jiu glanced at the closed wardrobe door without leaving any trace.
"Ms. Kong, we'll have to search to find out if there's anyone there."
The visitor did not buy it and started to order his men to search everywhere. At that moment, Quan Jiu clearly saw a trace of panic flash across Kong Manqing's face.
Tsk.
She rubbed her chin with interest.
It turns out my daughter is not a well-behaved kid either. She's actually hiding a secret.
Kong Manqing stepped forward and tried to stop the search. Xue Cheng, who was also her fan, simply took out his gun and held it in his hand.
"Ms. Kong, don't push me."
The corners of Kong Manqing's eyes turned red, but the figure blocking the wardrobe did not move away.
Xue Cheng narrowed his eyes and pointed the gun at her.
The atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point.
Just as the two sides were deadlocked, the sound of military boots hitting the ground and a resounding greeting suddenly came from the door.
"Hello, Third Master!"
"Um."
There was a lazy sound, the voice was a little low.
Quan Jiu looked up and saw that the curtain separating the backstage and the front hall had just been lifted. The first thing he saw was a pair of shiny black military boots.
Above the military boots, the man is dressed in a dark green military uniform, looking very heroic. On his brown leather waist belt, the dark yellow buttons are buttoned meticulously. The man stands tall, as straight as a tree with jade branches, planted between the black mountains and white waters.
Quan Jiu stayed at his right-angled shoulder position for a few more seconds. As a man in the army, his temperament, as cold as a blade and standing like a pine tree, was particularly attractive.
Her gaze finally rested on the man's face.
Under the military cap with a yellow badge, the pair of dark eyes were bottomless, like a pool of silent deep water, drowning people so much that they had no place to breathe.
Before Quan Jiu finished admiring the handsome man from the Republic of China in front of her, Si Jinnian's cold and emotionless black eyes met hers directly. In just two seconds, Si Jinnian's gaze shifted away indifferently, as if what he saw was not a delicate beauty, but an ordinary stone.
Quan Jiu: “…”
The baby has a temper.
Will you go blind if you look at it one more time?
"Third Master."
Xue Cheng put his feet together and saluted.
Si Jinnian glanced around the room: "What's going on?"
The deep and hoarse male voice sounded a little lazy.
Xue Cheng looked at Kong Manqing: "Still searching."
Si Jinnian frowned slightly, revealing a hint of impatience as he wiped the wound:
"One minute."
"yes!!"
The calm and nonchalant tone made everyone feel a chill down their spine.
Everyone knows what the consequences will be in a minute.
Kong Manqing's face was pale, her fingertips curled up, and she faced Si Jinnian at the risk of her life:
"Third Master, I have been staying in this room the entire time. No one else has come in..."
Si Jinnian threw the gun low into the air. After the gun body turned 360 degrees in the air, the handle fell steadily into his hand again. A hint of ridicule escaped from his thin lips. He pointed the gun at Kong Manqing's eyebrows and said in a cold and firm tone:
"Open the closet, or I'll shoot."
After he finished speaking, Kong Manqing's face turned even paler. This ruthless and cruel Third Master never joked. If he said he would shoot, he would really shoot.
The man spoke with thin lips.
"three."
"two……"
