"CEO, when we were searching, we found a box in the secret compartment of the room." The bodyguard respectfully handed a sandalwood box to the two of them.
Qian Qing looked at Xiao Yi, and then looked at the simple wooden box.
With a troubled expression, he asked hesitantly, "What background does your bodyguard come from, to actually find a secret compartment?"
All the bodyguards: …
Xiao Yi said complacently: "Of course, whose bodyguard are you talking about?"
Qian Qing was so embarrassed that she could not open the box even after she closed it.
Raising his head, he looked at the big brother bodyguard expectantly: "Can you unlock it?"
"Sure..." The brother bodyguard nodded his head, his expression a little conflicted.
In less than two minutes, the bronze lock was opened. Qian Qing praised the lock with her hands as she gained a new understanding of the cool bodyguards like Xiao Yi.
"Not open?" Xiao Yi asked curiously when he saw Qian Qing hugging the box tightly to her chest without opening it.
Qian Qing was a rare miser, she carefully looked around: "Since it's hidden in the secret compartment, it must be very important. I cannot let anyone see, otherwise, being robbed would make my heart ache!"
Xiao Yi laughed: "You think that someone here can snatch something from your hands?"
The bodyguards' faces were filled with disdain, as they puffed up their chests even more.
Qian Qing:...
When everyone walked out of the ancestral house, the gossipy villagers were still gathered at the entrance, but Ou Yang Qing was no longer there.
Just as he was about to greet Xiao Yi, he was stopped by the bodyguards.
"Young Master Xiao." The middle-aged man nodded in acknowledgement.
Xiao Yi waved his hand, and the bodyguards threw the seven to eight men out, and then carried Qian Qing and got in the car.
"So it's all these traffickers who are trying to scare us off! You deserve it! " Someone from the crowd shouted excitedly.
"Those children look pitiful too. I hope they can find their way home."
The hotel's auntie smiled happily, "It's all thanks to Qing Er this time. If it wasn't for her and her boyfriend, those dolls might have been even more pitiful."
"Who do you think this man is? Why are the police afraid of him? " The other aunties were very curious and gossiping.
"It can't be that you're afraid, it's just that you're respectful, right?"
The woman rolled her eyes. "It's all the same to me."
"It's good that he looks good. Being next to a rich family is his prestige." The girls were very envious.
Someone added, "And it's such a handsome young man!"
As Qian Qing sat on the carriage, she held onto the wooden box. Suddenly, she remembered: "Grandpa Wu is still in the hospital!"
"I've already sent someone to take care of his food and drink. I'll report back to you on a regular basis."
Qian Qing nodded her head, then exclaimed: "My luggage!"
"It's already packed, let's go straight to the airport." Xiao Yi looked at her helplessly, then bit his finger, and fell into deep thought.
"What are you thinking?" Qian Qing asked.
"I'm thinking that the tracking device on your bracelet is not perfect. I need to go back and improve it a bit." Xiao Yi sized up Qian Qing's bracelet, and said seriously.
This time, she actually ran out of the city, but he didn't realize that this wasn't a small loophole.
"Then can you invent a new weapon? It looks ordinary and unremarkable, but at the critical moment, it can repel the enemy, just like the knives and guns in the ring in the movie." Qian Qing gestured excitedly.
"What do you think all day?" Xiao Yi said with disdain, "Do you think that it's a science fictional world?"
Qian Qing unhappily curled her lips and hugged the box.
"Humph!"
"Why would you want such a weapon?" Xiao Yi laughed, holding her in his arms, he laughed and said softly.
"Since you can't always protect me, then I can only protect myself." Qian Qing said as she memorized the pattern on the wooden box.
"That night, Ou Yang Qian bullied you." Xiao Yi's tone turned cold.
Qian Qing was startled, she shook her head and said: "Nothing, Senior Brother has helped me."
"Next time, I'll definitely protect you, okay?" Xiao Yi said softly, her usually cold voice carrying hints of pleading and seriousness.
"Alright, it's a deal!" Qian Qing laughed until her eyebrows curved into a smile, and nodded her head.
Xiao Yi's heart softened a bit as he pulled the person in his embrace even closer.
However, at this moment, his phone rang.
Seeing the name on the screen, Xiao Yi frowned, then looked at Qian Qing in his arms and closed the phone.
Qian Qing's thoughts were all on the wooden box, but she did not see any movement from Xiao Yi.
"When we get back to A City, I'll take you on a tour." Xiao Yi said.
"How could that be? My family's Qing Er is so smart, she definitely won't fail. " Xiao Yi patted her head as he praised her.
Qian Qing sized him up with narrowed eyes, still not letting go.
"Don't regret it if you don't go." Xiao Yi smiled meaningfully.
After returning to the Sky City, Qian Qing very sincerely and carefully opened the wooden box. However, when she looked inside the wooden box, she realized that there was nothing inside …
His excitement and joy turned into smoke and rose from Qian Qing's head.
"Could it be that this secret compartment and this box were toyed with by our ancestors?" Qian Qing didn't give up and went through the box again, but she still couldn't find anything.
Xiao Yi laughed as he looked at her lost face. He looked extremely like a kitten who couldn't get its hands on the dried fish, his eyes drooping low and depressed and unhappy.
"Let me take you shopping. I'll buy whatever you like."
"No." Qian Qing laid on the bed, looking gloomy.
"Then let's do something fun?" Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and pressed down on Qian Qing's body.
Qian Qing's face flushed red, she pushed him aside and sat: "I'm going to buy vegetables to cook! Get up! "
Xiao Yi frowned: "You just had a fever, you need to rest more."
"My body isn't that weak, and I can move as much as I want."
"Then I'll go with you."
Qian Qing pushed the cart, and wandered in the supermarket, while she looked around casually.
"What do you want to eat tonight?" Qian Qing asked.
"Anything?"
Qian Qing thought for a moment, then shook her head: "No."
"Then what's the use of asking this?" Xiao Yi rolled his eyes at her.
"I like it." Qian Qing wanted to take the topmost seasoning, but he found that she was too short and couldn't reach it no matter what, so he could only seek the help of the supermarket staff.
But just as she turned around, Xiao Yi raised his hand and threw the seasoning bag from the shelf into Qian Qing's hands. He said with disdain: "It's inconvenient to be short."
Xiao Yi who was dressed in casual attire no longer had his usual overbearing and cold attitude, instead, he had become more youthful and handsome. His face still had an unruly and disdainful expression, but this moved Qian Qing's heart for some reason.
Xiao Yi noticed Qian Qing's infatuated gaze and laughed sinisterly. "What's wrong? Did you lose your mind watching all this? "
Qian Qing held his hand and laughed foolishly, "Mn, I saw you stupid."
"Idiot." Xiao Yi laughed.
