Before I had time to react, Xin Yao pushed open the door to the study. I had no choice but to follow her in. I saw Suri massaging Duanmu Tachio's shoulders. When they saw me and Xin Yao barge in, they were stunned. Suri stopped what he was doing. When he saw Xin Yao, he actually blushed.
Xin Yao pursed her lips and looked at Suri. She probably saw Suri's blush. Suri turned his head away in embarrassment. Xin Yao then looked at Duanmu Tachio and said, "Father, how could you steal him? That's not right. "
Duanmu Tachio looked at Xin Yao and smiled. "Haha, Father is just chatting with Suri. But I really like him. He's multi-talented, has a good personality, and most importantly, is very loyal."
Xin Yao walked to Suri's side and listened to Duanmu Tachio praise him. She suddenly pulled Suri's arm and walked past him. She said to him, "Even if you like him, you can't steal your sister-in-law's man." She turned to look at Suri and gave him a meaningful look. "Isn't that right, Suri?"
Suri's face turned even redder. He immediately understood the meaning of Xin Yao's gaze. Then he looked at Duanmu Tachio and said, "President Duanmu is also very good to me. He takes care of me a lot. Sometimes, I feel like President Duanmu is as kind as my father. No matter what, I still have to thank President Duanmu for his good intentions. I've decided to follow our family's eldest miss for the rest of my life."
Hearing Suri's words, Duanmu Tachio's face bloomed with happiness. He looked at Suri and smiled. "Really? Is he really that kind? "As he said that, Duanmu Tachio touched his face.
Xin Yao curled her lips and said, "Father, he just gave you a few compliments, and you're already so happy. You weren't even this happy when my brother and I complimented you before."
Duanmu Lixiong smiled and said: "Good daughter, I'm liking Su Rui more and more."
Xin Yao's eyes turned as if she had thought of something. She looked at Duanmu Tachio and said proudly, "Father, if you like Suri so much, why don't you help Suri solve a problem? What do you think?"
Duanmu Tachio nodded. "That's not a problem. Tell me, what is it?"
Xinyao looked at me and then at Su Rui. She then looked at Duanmu Lixiong and said, "Father, Su Rui's father was framed and sent to prison because of an unjust case. I heard that he didn't have a good time there. Su Rui also has a younger sister who just recovered from a serious illness. The whole family is in tatters. If you really like him, then help him save his father."
Hearing Xin Yao's words, Suri and I were stunned. Neither of us had expected that Xin Yao would ask Duanmu Tachio to help her. Suri pulled Xin Yao's arm, hinting that she shouldn't mention it. Xin Yao looked at him and said, "What? Isn't this what you've been worried about?"
Xin Yao turned to Duanmu Tachio and said, "Father, although it's difficult to do, it should be a piece of cake for you." From the tone of Xin Yao's voice, it sounded as if she was forcing Duanmu Tachio to help her.
I hurried over to Xin Yao's side and whispered into her ear, "Girl, how can you say this to our father? Besides, your attitude isn't right." Xin Yao looked at me, hinting that I shouldn't say anything.
Duanmu Tachio thought for a moment, then looked at us and said, "If you know that it's difficult to do, then why do you want me to do it?"
Suri looked disappointed. He looked at Xin Yao and said, "President Duanmu's words are reasonable. Xin Yao, please don't mention it again."
Xin Yao didn't answer. She looked at Duanmu Tachio and said, "Father, you will definitely do it."
"Oh? You're that sure? " Duanmu Tachio looked at Xin Yao in disbelief. Xin Yao walked over to Duanmu Tachio's side and whispered a few words into his ear. Duanmu Tachio suddenly stared at Xin Yao and asked, "Really?" Xin Yao looked at Duanmu Tachio with pride and nodded.
Duanmu Tachio thought for a moment, then looked at Suri and said, "This isn't difficult. Tell me what happened."
Suri looked at Duanmu Tachio and said, "Here's what happened. My mother passed away when I was young, and my sister and I were raised by my father. He didn't have a degree, so he worked as a hired thug to support the family. Later, my sister's health got worse and worse, and she contracted a serious illness. She needed more and more money, so I dropped out of school and started working as a hired thug with my father. In order to get my sister treated, he started taking on some dangerous jobs, but he always kept it from me. One time, he and a few of his brothers were on a mission. During a scuffle, one of my father's brothers used a knife to stab a person in front of him, seriously injuring him. Because he wasn't careful, he missed a step and fell down. The back of his head hit a nail protruding from the wall, and he died on the spot. The person who injured him with the knife was a relative of the boss at the time. They colluded to frame my father. At the time, the police investigated and found my father's fingerprints on the knife. Although my father denied that he didn't kill him, the evidence and witnesses all pointed to my father. In addition, the police colluded with the boss at the time, so my father was locked up in prison. "
Duanmu Tachio nodded and thought for a moment. "Now that you mention it, I remember. A few years ago, something like this happened here. At the time, it was very fierce, but the public opinion was quickly suppressed. It seems that this person who can control both the black and white sides is not simple. Little Rui, do you remember who that person was? What was his name? "
Su Rui nodded and said, "I don't know what his real name is. I only know his nickname. I won't forget this name even if I die. I only know that the people around him and in society all call him 'Brother Hei'."
"Who? Black Brother? How could it be him? "When Duanmu Tachio heard this name, he instantly became serious.
Xin Yao looked at Duanmu Tachio and said, "What's wrong, Dad? Do you know him? "
Duanmu Tachio calmed himself down. He sat in front of the desk and said with a serious face, "The rumor is that Black Brother is called Ji Bai. He was once the most ruthless person in our city's underworld. He had many murders, robberies, smuggling cases, and human trafficking cases. But for some reason, even though he was like this, he still had a way to not get caught."
Xin Yao thought for a moment, then said to Duanmu Tachio, "Dad, are you close to him?"
Duanmu Tachio shook his head. "No, I've only met him a few times. We're not close."
