Gu Dongfeng sat at the long table. His hair had grown quite a bit, and he looked a bit sloppy and decadent. He had also lost a lot of weight, and he did not look very energetic. There were many red, swollen, and purple marks on his face and neck, and it seemed that his injuries were not light.
It was really hard to imagine how he, who had never had to worry about food and clothing since he was young, had lived here!
“Sis, what happened to your face? ”
Before he got close, Gu Dongfeng noticed the five clear fingerprints on her face, and his eyes were almost on fire.
Qiao man walked over and sat down. Her eyes were very red, but she tried her best to suppress the little sobs that were about to rush out of her throat “It’s nothing! But you, are your injuries serious? Are they painful? Why do you want to fight with others? Don’t you know that a weak scholar like you can easily get beaten up? Why are you trying to be strong? ”
Gu Dongfeng chuckled and reached out to hold Qiao Man’s hands. “Who said that I’m a weak scholar? I’m clearly already a man who can stand tall! ”
Qiao man glared at him, but the smile on her face betrayed her. “You’re still laughing. Do you know that I’m almost worried to death? Tell me, why are you fighting? Otherwise, I don’t even know where to start to help you. ”
Dongfeng, this child, had a bright personality. He rarely took the initiative to make enemies with others, unless the other party provoked him first.
But… … It was not to the extent that he would be knocked unconscious and hospitalized, with such serious injuries …
What exactly was the reason?
Gu Dongfeng shook his head. There was some stubbornness in his clear eyes. “It’s nothing. If you’re unhappy with him, just beat him up. ”
“Don’t be cheeky with me. Do you think that I won’t know if you don’t tell me? The other party has already filed a lawsuit. This matter will blow up sooner or later. If you tell me earlier, I’ll think of a way. Are you stupid? ! ”
After hesitating for two minutes, he reluctantly said, “he said that you’re a whore and that you’re a bus. Anyone can sleep with you! ”
On the way here, she vaguely felt that this matter had something to do with her because she knew Dongfeng well. In this world, the only person who could make him throw his life away was Gu Jinyu and her.
Gu Jinyu’s attitude just now had already confirmed her guess, but she still wanted to hear the reason from Dongfeng himself.
She slightly lowered her head and looked at the seven-centimeter nude pink high heels on her feet. The pain was like countless cotton needles stabbing into her heart. It was so painful that she could hardly breathe.
“Do you know who that person is? Why did you say that? ”
Gu Dongfeng felt bad when he saw her like this. “I don’t know. I only said that I saw you being carried into a room by a man at the hotel. I even said with certainty that you were… slept with by that man! ”
He held Qiao Man’s hand tightly and said excitedly, “Sis, I know that he’s lying. He’s deliberately slandering you. Don’t be sad. I believe you. ”
That night was like a nightmare that stayed in Qiao man’s mind.
If she did not touch it, she could pretend as if nothing had happened.
But once she touched it, her soul would dissipate.
Qiao man raised her head and a smile appeared on her face again. Although she forced a smile, “Dongfeng, in the future, if you encounter this kind of thing, just pretend that you didn’t hear it. Anyway, it doesn’t hurt, it won’t hurt me. ”
“Sis, how can I pretend that I didn’t hear it? I want to kill the person who spread the rumors. ”
She frowned slightly and her face instantly turned cold. “What nonsense are you talking about? Moreover… that person didn’t lie. ”
“Sis, don’t tease me. In the eyes of outsiders, you may have a bold style and a bad reputation, but I know that you’re not that kind of person. It’s impossible for you to do those things! ”
She should be glad that there was still Dongfeng in this world who understood her so well and trusted her.
But she couldn’t deny this matter.
And… … couldn’t deny it …
“It really happened. I didn’t lie to you. ”
Gu Dongfeng stared straight into her eyes, as if he wanted to see if she was joking, but he couldn’t find anything. He was just calm.
“Sis, how could you… ”
Panic flashed in her eyes, and she avoided his gaze. “The world of adults is not something a little Brat like you can understand. Alright, I should go now. You must behave yourself. Don’t cause any more trouble for me. I will think of a way to get you out! ”
“Sis, I don’t want you to make things difficult for me. At worst, I won’t go out for the rest of my life. ”
Qiao man’s tears were like a sea that had burst its banks. They suddenly fell down violently. “LISTEN TO ME! ”
Gu Dongfeng pursed his lips. He was afraid that she would be upset, so he could only nod. “But we have agreed that if there is really no other way, you are not allowed to do anything… that is out of line, do you understand? ”
“Yes! ”
When she walked out, the setting sun was already approaching the Western mountains, clearly outlining the outline of the distant green mountains.
Even though the beautiful scenery was in front of her, she did not have any intention of appreciating it. It was as if she had lost something, and an inexplicable melancholy rose in her heart.
On the way back, she held her cell phone and flipped through her address book three times, but she could not think of who to ask.
Ji Yunshen He had just coldly said that he did not want to see her again. He must have been really annoyed by her!
However, other than him, she really could not think of anyone else.
She thought about it and struggled all the way.
In the end, Qiao man chose to dial Tong Qin’s number. After all, Fang Jinglun was pursuing her. If she spoke to Fang Jinglun, she might be able to persuade Shen Yebai to defend Dongfeng.
Shen Yebai… …
Everyone in Lin city knew that he was a big lawyer. The cases he took on almost had no record of losing!
However, they were all JI Yunshen’s good brothers. It was not certain whether they could help him or not.
However, they had to give it a try. They could not just sit around and wait for death to come.
The beeping sounded for about three times before Tong Qin picked up the phone. She seemed to be at home, and the voice in the background was very quiet. “Man Man? ”
“Qinqin, can we meet up? I have something I want to ask you for help with. ”
Tong Qin nodded. “Then can you come to my house? It’s rare for me to have a break today. ”
“Okay! ”
…
Tong Qin’s high-end apartment was in the vicinity of the wealthy district. It was about a ten-minute drive away from Ji Yunshen’s Blue Mountain villa.
Because it was a high-end residential address, the security was very strict. She had no choice but to ask the security office to call Tong Qin to confirm that it was someone she knew before letting her in.
She took the elevator up and pressed the doorbell. Soon, the door was opened from the inside.
Tong Qin was wearing a family uniform with half a bun on her head. She looked like a student who had not graduated yet.
“I’m sorry to bother you so much when you are resting! ”
Because of Xiao Meng, the relationship between the two gradually became estranged, and their words unconsciously became polite.
“It’s nothing. We’re friends. ”
Tong Qin took a pair of brand-new white slippers and placed them by her feet. She could almost see the red marks on her face at a glance. “What happened to your face? ”
Qiao man caressed her slightly swollen face casually. “It’s nothing. It was a mosquito. I accidentally hit it. ”
Seeing that she did not want to say anything, Tong Qin did not press her.
After they sat down, Tong Qin handed her a glass of white wine. She took a SIP. “Qin Qin, I came to look for you because I want to ask you to tell Fang Jinglun that his friend, Shen Yebai, can defend my brother, Gu Dongfeng. ”
Tong Qin and she were classmates in high school and university for a total of seven years. They knew a lot about her family and knew that she had a half-brother.
However, she remembered that her brother was abroad all year round, so how could he be in trouble in China.
Tong Qin also took a sip of plain water and said calmly, “Fang Jinglun is pursuing me, but I didn’t agree. I can only say that I… Try! ”
“Okay, thank you. ”
At that time, Fang Jinglun and Fu Qingshan were talking about work with Ji Yunshen in the CEO’s office on the top floor of the Mingyuan Group. When he heard the phone ring, his lips curled up unconsciously and he shushed the two people beside him.
“Are you busy? ” Tong Qin asked.
Fang Jinglun leaned against the back of his chair and crossed his legs. “I’m busy, but… Miss Tong is looking for me. Even if I’m busy, I’ll make myself unbusy. ”
Tong Qin didn’t take his flowery words to heart. Basically, she heard everything he said. “I want to ask you something. It’s your friend, Shen Yebai. I want to ask him to help me with a lawsuit. ”
“Old Shen? ” Fang Jinglun raised his eyes and looked at Ji Yunshen and Fu Qingshan for two seconds. Then he asked, “help who with a lawsuit? ”
Tong Qin glanced at Qiao Man, as if asking if she could tell the truth. Qiao man nodded, and Tong Qin continued, “Gu Dongfeng. ”
Fang Jinglun pondered for a moment. “who asked you to ask? ”
“Qiao Man! ”
Because the office was very quiet, the sound of the earpiece could be heard. Ji Yunshen heard a familiar name, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He didn’t know what it meant.
“Miss Qin, you and Qiao man are quite smart. You should know that we brothers have a good relationship. Qiao man and old JI just had a falling out. Isn’t it a little difficult for her to come and ask for help again? ”
Tong Qin didn’t waste any more time. “Are you going to help or not? ”
“Of course I’m going to help. ” Fang Jinglun’s tone was indifferent. “But… she has to come and beg old JI. If I insist on interfering, the consequences might be very serious… ”
Tong Qin understood that this matter was complicated. If she helped one party, she would definitely offend the other party. She looked at Qiao man and was a little confused.
Qiao man took the phone from Tong Qin’s hand and pressed the cut-off button. “When I came, I was holding on to a glimmer of hope. Thank you for helping me make this call. ”
“Man Man, I’ve said it before. We’re friends. It’s only right for us to help each other. ”
Qiao man nodded. “But I still have to thank you. I’ll be leaving first. We can’t delay Dongfeng’s matter. ”
“What do you plan to do? ” Tong Qin looked at her back and asked.
“other than Ji Yunshen, do you think anyone else in this city will help me? ”
No, everyone in this city was afraid of that person.
As long as he gave the order, how could anyone help her?
After leaving Tong Qin’s house, she immediately took a taxi back to the Blue Mountain villa. Her hair and clothes were not completely dry yet. As soon as she entered, Zhang Sao was shocked.
“Are you drenched in the rain again? I’ll hurry and make ginger soup. ”
Qiao man shook her head. “There’s no need, Zhang Sao. I might have to go out again. ”
Before she could finish speaking, the villa’s door was opened once again. A tall and straight figure walked in. When he saw her, he frowned. “Zhang Sao, why did you let a stranger in so casually? Chase him out. ”
Zhang Sao saw that the two of them were quarreling, so she quickly hid in case she was hurt.
He changed into his slippers and took off his ironed black suit. He took off his tie and hung it on the clothes rack. Then, he unbuttoned the collar of his shirt and walked upstairs without saying a word. He treated her like air the entire time.
Qiao man knew that she had no other choice, so she could only follow him upstairs.
His Room door was half-open. When Qiao man walked in, he had already taken off his shirt and was taking off his watch, as if he wanted to take a shower.
She was stunned for a moment, and her fair face could not help but turn red. “Are you still angry? ”
He turned around and glanced at her indifferently. “Who are you? Why should I be angry? ”
This man was really narrow-minded and calculative.
She had only said who he was to her, and he could turn the tables on her.
However, he was rich and powerful, and he was a big shot that no one in the city could compare to.
She walked to his side and smiled sweetly. Her voice was as soft as water. “Ah Shen, I know I’m wrong! ”
The man turned around and smiled. “Oh? ” The next second, his big hand lifted her sharp Chin and looked at her trembling eyelashes and dark eyes. “Then tell me, what did you do wrong? Let me hear it! ”
“I… ”
Her clean little face was entangled with pain. Their eyes intertwined in the air. She wanted to answer that she did not know what she did wrong, but when she touched his eyes, she quickly changed the topic “I should only cry for you. ”
“Why cry for me? ”
He moved closer to her, his thin lips almost touching hers.
She felt that if she answered incorrectly, he would swallow her whole.
“For example… crying because of my third leg? ”
Qiao man was stunned for a moment. Some wet hair was scattered on the side of her face. The big hand that he raised gently moved behind her ear.
The slightly hot temperature between her fingers made her whole body stiffen.
