Capítulo 869: Chapter 869: Getting Out for a Change of Scenery
“Su Qingyu is too much, treating you like this.” Luo Shiqi said with a smile.
“If you think she’s too much, then what does your laughter an right now?” Ye Shikai was exasperated; actually, Luo Shiqi was only “mocking” on the surface, she really cared about Ye Shikai, for instance, the dishes on the table today were all ordered by her. Alas, she left in a hurry and forgot her wallet at ho, fortunately, a “wealthy woman” paid the bill.
“Haha, alright, stop fussing and make up, okay?”
“Saying that to is pointless, it’s Su Qingyu who insists on the cold war with .” Ye Shikai suddenly missed Su Ziqing; although this young sister-in-law was usually mischievous, if she weren’t out of town now, she could surely act as the peacemaker.
“How about you help persuade her?”
“Are you crazy?” Luo Shiqi gave him a disdainful look. “You want to go? Aren’t you afraid Su Qingyu will get even angrier?”
“Uh, seems like it.” Ye Shikai was truly worried sick; technically, Luo Shiqi was also Su Qingyu’s love rival, have you ever heard of a love rival diating peace?
“Usually you’re so smart, why are you becoming so clumsy now?” Luo Shiqi poked Ye Shikai’s head with her finger, feeling sowhat exasperated.
“What do you an?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Su Qingyu is such a rational woman, why would she insist on having a spat with you, even provoking you at the table?”
“Why?” Ye Shikai beca more curious, could it be that Su Qingyu wasn’t angry because of his attitude this morning, or perhaps Luo Shiqi understood Su Qingyu’s thoughts.
“You’re such a fool, Su Qingyu is pressuring you.”
“Pressuring to do what?” Ye Shikai continued to ask, unable to answer any of Luo Shiqi’s “rapid-fire questions”…
“Of course, she’s pressuring you to find sothing to do.”
“You an, as long as I haven’t found sothing suitable to do, Su Qingyu will continue the cold war with .” Ye Shikai felt a twinge; all this ti, Su Qingyu had been pressuring him. She ntioned it in the morning, asking Ye Shikai to find a “stable livelihood”, but he didn’t really pay attention at that ti. Now, Su Qingyu is using this thod to force Ye Shikai to agree; honestly, his heart felt uneasy.
Especially since she’s using their marital happiness as a shield, disagree and forget about living happily, isn’t this “moral coercion”?
If in the future, Su Qingyu has other demands that Ye Shikai doesn’t agree to, would he infinitely consent?
Seeing Ye Shikai deep in thought, absent-minded, Luo Shiqi did not interrupt, and just watched silently from the side.
“Take your ti eating, I’ve already paid.” After a while, Luo Shiqi glanced at her watch, stood up, and seeing Ye Shikai still unresponsive, quietly sighed and left.
Half a minute later.
Su Qingyu, resting at ho, received a text ssage.
It was a ssage she expected, yet caught her off guard.
Qingyu, I’m not feeling well, want to go out of town to clear my mind, might be back in a few days. I understand your intention, let’s not continue the cold war, shall we?
The ssage wasn’t very long, Su Qingyu had anticipated Ye Shikai would send a ssage. Actually, she had prepared his dinner, but instead of packing it in a lunchbox, she left it in the rice cooker. Her thoughts aligned with Luo Shiqi’s analysis. Initially thinking this ssage was Ye Shikai’s “remorseful confession”, she hadn’t expected him to want to go out of town to unwind, this was unexpected for Su Qingyu.
With things said this far, Su Qingyu had nothing more to add; this was Ye Shikai’s decision to make, he might already be at the airport by now.
Staring at the ssage content, Su Qingyu suddenly felt a pang of regret, wondering if she had pressured him too much, if leaving town was proof he’s really troubled. If not truly upset, Ye Shikai wouldn’t say such things.
Su Qingyu hesitated briefly, pondered a while, took out her phone, quickly tapped only one word.
Okay.
……………………………………
Next day.
“Miss Luo, we’re twenty minutes away.” The driver turned to tell Luo Shiqi. In the backseat, Luo Shiqi was reading a docunt; beside her was a female bodyguard. To ensure close protection, Luo Shiqi naturally chose a female bodyguard, and to protect soone so important, the bodyguard must naturally be a skilled cultivator.
“Okay, maintain the current speed.” Luo Shiqi closed the docunt, clad in a striking red dress, she was going to et Wang Qian, Wang Hu was busy preparing his “arrangents”, and a bit of “reminder” was needed with Wang Qian.
“Miss Luo, sothing feels off, this road seems different from usual.” At this mont, the female bodyguard beside her seed to sense sothing amiss, furrowing her brow.
“What is it?” Luo Shiqi didn’t take it as a joke; after many years in the Underworld, she understood such situations well. A small oversight could cost her life, and the person she was going to et was Wang Qian, a ruthless character.
“This road isn’t usually this quiet, I’m worried it’s a Wang Family ambush.” The female bodyguard stated firmly.
“Driver, turn left, redirect the route.”
“Yes, Miss Luo.” The driver nodded, turned the steering wheel, and the car veered into the left side path.
“Seems like there’s nothi…”
Bam.
Suddenly, the car window next to the driver’s seat shattered abruptly, Luo Shiqi jerked her head up, the driver’s body was slumped over, shot in the temple, killed instantly.
There was indeed a gunman.
“Miss Luo, be careful.” The female bodyguard reacted swiftly, pressing Luo Shiqi down onto the backseat, signaling her not to rise. She reached out grabbing onto the car’s roof bars, flipped her body like a monkey into the driver’s seat, opened the car door, and pushed the driver’s body out.
Bam, bam, bam.
Several gunshots rang out again, the back window of the car was riddled with bullet holes, Luo Shiqi stayed crouched on the seat, avoiding fatal gunfire. The gunn were shooting from behind, aning there were several gunn ambushed on the originally planned road.
“Miss Luo, watch out.” The female bodyguard slamd on the accelerator, and the car sped away swiftly; luckily it had veered into a side path, otherwise, it would have long been shot into a sieve.
Suddenly, the door, moving swiftly, opened abruptly, a figure leapt straight towards Luo Shiqi, startled both won.
“Who are you?” The female bodyguard driving imdiately shouted, swinging one hand, flinging three throwing knives instantly.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here to protect Miss Luo.”
