"Are you sure you won’t join us?" Bi Xia looked at Xu Renfei in the room, then turned to Luo Hao, who was staring intently at Ji Qiutang, "Brother Six, you’re not coming with us either?"
Coming back to himself, Luo Hao looked at Bi Xia and pulled the corner of his lips, "No, I’m not going," he said, looking at Ji Qiutang, "It’s been a long ti since I’ve seen Second Brother, planning to have a good chat. You go ahead and eat; this gathering is all people you know, it wouldn’t be the sa if we went too."
Bi Xia chuckled lightly, raising an eyebrow, "Alright, the room is yours, you guys..." looking rather gleefully at Ji Qiutang, "Have a good talk."
With a helpless glance at Bi Xia, Ji Qiutang sat on the sofa, retracting his gaze to look at Luo Hao and company, a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, "Long ti no see, Hao."
Watching them sit together and then looking at the ssage from ng Chi, Bi Xia turned and walked to the door, just faintly hearing Luo Hao say, "Fourth Brother’s matter..."
Body tensing, Bi Xia struggled to suppress the impulse to push open the door, furrowing her brows tightly. What’s going on? What does he an by Fourth Brother’s matter? Is there sothing about Fourth Brother related to Ji Qiutang?
"Boss!"
Looking up at ng Chi who ca upstairs to find her, Bi Xia gave a deep look at her room door, firmly closing it with a slight force, then turned to walk towards ng Chi. It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Ji Qiutang, but because, among everyone here, the feeling Ji Qiutang gave her was just too mysterious.
What is Fourth Brother’s matter? Why did Wei Xiaoba have that expression of hatred that couldn’t be, yet had to be, when he saw Ji Qiutang? And why did Ji Qiutang leave them for so many years? What is the reason for appearing in front of everyone now?
"Boss, Vice President Xia and the others have just arrived, and the car we rented is already downstairs," ng Chi said, "But..."
He paused, pressing the elevator button, "Last ti, that scrapped car, we paid quite a bit... the amount we paid is..."
"Stop!" Bi Xia raised a hand to stop ng Chi from continuing, looking blankly at ng Chi, "Sotis if the truth is too harsh, it’s better to just hint at it."
Hearing Bi Xia’s words, ng Chi paused, couldn’t help but smile, "Got it, Boss."
"Oh, Chi," standing in the elevator, Bi Xia said to ng Chi, "After things are settled today and if you want to have so fun in Yan City, play for a day or two then go back. I won’t be leaving with you."
ng Chi: "What’s the matter? What happened?"
"Nothing," Bi Xia smiled, "I promised to help Little Fei shoot that MV earlier, and this ti they’ve co here because Yan City is the final shooting location, so I’ll go back after filming for them."
ng Chi nodded in understanding, "Alright, then we won’t play either, head back to Qing City early to hand over the remaining matters. Besides, I heard Qinghai Gang has been making so moves recently. Now that Xiao and I aren’t at Nine Pavilion, with only Ze and Xin’er, I’m still not too reassured."
Listening to ng Chi, Bi Xia patted ng Chi’s shoulder appreciatively, "With generals like you, I really feel assured. Leaving Nine Pavilion to you gives peace of mind!"
ng Chi’s mouth twitched, his expression blank as he said, "Since establishing Nine Pavilion, you’ve just been in AFK mode. Many old mbers have complained they haven’t seen you for quite so ti."
Bi Xia: ...
Clearing her throat, Bi Xia said seriously, "No way around it, there’s so much going on with X Group, look, I’m even on a business trip to Yan City now."
"I’m in Yan City too, Boss."
Bi Xia: "...Oh, this month’s bonus is gone."
ng Chi: ... deducting bonuses?!
Looking at the ceiling in despair, ng Chi comforted himself, no worries, there’s no bonus from Nine Pavilion, but there’s still the bonus from X Real Estate Company.
"You just ntioned Qinghai Gang has been making moves?" Bi Xia suddenly asked.
ng Chi snapped to attention, "Yes, I’ve heard Qinghai Gang is suffering from unknown attacks and has been frantically lashing out, occasionally harassing our territories."
The starry eyes half-squinted, crimson lips curled coldly, "Looks like Yu Du has found the ’clues’ we left for them and is starting to target Qinghai Gang."
"Then why is Qinghai Gang targeting us?" ng Chi frowned.
"It’s simple, Yu Du is the biggest gang in Yan City, and although Qinghai Gang is an old gang in Qing City, Yu Du does not consider it a threat. Judging by the forces behind Yu Du, it’s more than capable of destroying Qinghai Gang," Bi Xia said, then asked, "Did Qinghai Gang know I wasn’t around?"
"Yes."
"That’s it, they’re planning to use the sa tactics we used against Yuan Gang: to dismantle Nine Pavilion while I’m away, leaving it as an empty shell just like Yuan Gang."
ng Chi’s expression darkened as he sneered, "Don’t they know that imitating us will end very badly for them?"
Looking at ng Chi, Bi Xia smiled faintly, "Don’t rush, Chi. Let them stir things up. If Nine Pavilion was so easily toppled, we wouldn’t want it in the first place. Now... coincidentally, I need them to help distract Yu Du."
With that, the starry eyes flashed a deep blue, casting a smiling gaze at ng Chi, she said slowly, "Looks like you’ll have to stay with in Qing City for a while."
ng Chi was slightly taken aback, then laughed, "Can’t ask for more."
