In the afternoon.
Bai Wushuang called Wang Ji, who was watching TV in the living room, into the study. He took out a red envelope from the drawer, smiled and said, "Happy New Year."
Wang Qi was a little shy, but she still accepted it.
"Brother. Are you not going to have dinner with me tonight? "Wang Qi leaned on the desk and asked.
"En." Bai Wushuang nodded. "I'll arrange for someone to escort you back to White City tonight."
"What about you?" Wang Ji asked.
After spending more than a year together, Wang Qi had become very dependent on his blood-related older brother. Even if it was only for a day, he would miss her very much.
"I still have some personal matters to take care of." Bai Wushuang didn't explain clearly, nor did he tell Wang Ji when he would be able to return to White City. "You must study hard. He couldn't be lazy, and he definitely couldn't bully others. Understand? "
Wang Ji nodded in confusion.
The term 'taking advantage of one's power to bully others' was too foreign to him, and he couldn't understand what it meant at all.
But only Bai Wu Shuang knew how Wang Qi's future would be like.
His only worry was that Wang Qi would walk down his old path.
In the past, Bai Wushuang always lamented that he was born at the wrong time. Only in the past year did he realize that there was no such thing as being born at the wrong time in this world. There was only the difference between excellence and stupidity. In those years, he did a lot of stupid things.
But tonight, he was going to do something sensational. It was an irresistible trend.
"Come, recite a section of the Three Character Classic for big brother." Bai Wushuang patted Wang Ji's head and smiled. "Remember my words. Don't do evil."
"En!" Wang Qi nodded. He began to recite the Three Character Classic.
"Humans are born with a good nature. Their natures are alike, but their habits differ.
If one does not teach, one's nature will change. In the way of teaching, the most important thing is to be focused.
In the past, Mencius's mother chose a neighbor. If you don't learn, you'll break the rules.
Dou Yanshan had righteous prescriptions. He taught the five sons, and their names spread far and wide.
It is the father's fault to raise and not to teach. A lax teacher is a lazy teacher.
It is not suitable for a child not to learn. If you don't learn when you're young, what will you do when you're old?
An unpolished jade is worthless. If one does not learn, one will not understand the principles.
To be a son is to be young. Teachers and friends, learn etiquette … "
…
Six o 'clock in the evening.
Xiao Zheng, who was about to leave, received a call from Shang Yao.
"Miss Shang?" Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and asked.
What was the purpose of calling at this time?
According to Xiao Zheng's understanding, there was no need for Shang Yao to attend tonight. Because it was too dangerous.
"I'll wait for you at the intersection." Shang Yao expressed her intention in a concise manner and hung up the phone.
Xiao Zheng shook his head and didn't ask any more questions. He put away the phone and drove away from the Ye Residence.
Before he left, he looked back at Elder Lin and his mother, who were watching him leave. His heart was heavy.
This battle was fraught with danger. Even if Xiao Zheng could advance and retreat at will, he did not have full confidence that he could escape unscathed. Moreover, when he was sure that Qiu Shou had come here with the intention to die, he was even more clear that as long as Qiu Shou dared to show himself, he would naturally have more thorough preparations.
As he drove to the intersection, he saw Shang Yao in a black windbreaker from afar.
She stood alone at the intersection, exuding the aura of someone who had been in a high position for a long time. Every move she made revealed a powerful aura that prevented strangers from approaching.
When Xiao Zheng drove the car to the front, Shang Yao smiled and went straight to the passenger seat.
"Why did Miss Shang come out alone? Where's the chauffeur? " Xiao Zheng looked left and right. Other than Shang Yao, there was no other car nearby, let alone a chauffeur.
"I told the chauffeur to go home for the New Year." Shang Yao smiled. "It's New Year's Eve, I can't use money to force people to accompany me, right? That's not how a boss should be. "
Xiao Zheng smiled. As he drove the car, he asked, "Miss Shang also agreed?"
"How can I miss such a big event?" Shang Yao smiled. "If you miss it, you might regret it for the rest of your life."
"We don't know what will happen tonight. No one knows what will happen. I personally suggest that Miss Shang don't go, "Xiao Zheng said tactfully. "If there's any news, I'll inform you immediately."
"I don't need news, I need witnesses." Shang Yao shook her head and smiled. "Moreover, I don't think anyone will make a move on me, right?"
As she spoke, she took out a silver handgun from her bag. It looked delicate, but Xiao Zheng could tell that this special handgun was very powerful. It could blow a person's head off with one shot.
However, with just this gun, even Bai Wushuang could easily control the situation. Not to mention a strong warrior like Qiu Shou.
"This is illegal." Xiao Zheng used a reason that even he couldn't convince himself. "If I get stopped by the traffic police, I'll be implicated by you."
Shang Yao seemed to have heard an international joke. She smiled and said, "What you're going to do tonight, is it really not illegal, not against the law?"
"The law doesn't punish the majority." Xiao Zheng smiled and said. "And the location is so remote, it's also to avoid trouble for the police."
Everything had been arranged according to a logical procedure.
Tonight's fight will not end until one side is dead.
Shang Yao's emotions were a little chaotic. She lit a lady's cigarette, her red lips slightly opened and said, "My father will attend tonight's banquet. So — — I also have to be there. "
"Why?" Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows. "Miss Shang is worried about your father's safety?"
"I'm a clay Bodhisattva crossing the river, how can I have the time to worry about others?" Shang Yao spat out a thick cloud of smoke and said meaningfully. "I just want to know, is father really like Boss Xiao said, a turtle hiding in its shell."
Hearing this, a piece of information appeared in Xiao Zheng's mind.
Years ago, the creator of the Eight Ultimates, Mu Qingsong, did not hesitate to kidnap Shang Yao's birth mother in order to force Shang Jingtian to make a move. But in the end, Shang Jingtian was indifferent, and only used the method of calling the police to force Mu Qingsong to release his mother.
But the result was that Mu Qingsong, in a rage, slaughtered Shang Jingtian's wife.
This matter, for a long time, was used as a tool by those who knew about it to attack Shang Jingtian. As for Shang Yao, she wanted to know if her father was really powerless, or if he was willing to sacrifice his wife for the sake of his so-called great ambitions!
Xiao Zheng lightly shook his head. After guessing Shang Yao's thoughts, he no longer tried to persuade her.
Just as Shang Yao said, this battle was initiated by Bai Wushuang. And Qiu Shou accepted the letter of challenge. Participants like Shang Yao, who did not have any martial strength, believed that they would not be in too much danger.
In a battle of life and death, they could use self-defense as an excuse. Whether it was for public or private reasons, it was a reasonable and legal foothold. But if they slaughtered a businesswoman like Shang Yao, who did not even have the strength to truss a chicken. It was a bit extreme.
The upper echelons would also pressure them to investigate thoroughly.
The car steadily drove towards the Bai family's meeting place. Because of the long journey, Shang Yao closed her eyes and rested as if there was no one else around. Her beautiful face, however, had a layer of worry lingering on it.
