Chapter 1973: Final Arrangements
Chapter 1973: Final Arrangements
Zhou Zhan felt extremely uncomfortable with his neck being hoisted.
He resisted instinctively, grabbing Qi Lian's wrists with both hands and trying to pull them apart.
Zhou Zhan's bodyguards rushed forward to help, but after being slightly drugged by Qilian, they became insane and stood there in a daze, not moving.
Zhou Zhan's facial features were distorted with pain. He turned his head to look at Qi Lian and asked fiercely with his tongue sticking out: "Who are you? Why are you pinching my neck?"
Qi Lian said coldly: "Who are you? Why are you causing trouble?"
Zhou Zhan smiled coldly, "My last name is Zhou Zhan, the woman in there is my ex-girlfriend, and I still love her, why do you think I am making a fuss?"
Seeing that it was Shen Yuan's ex-boyfriend, Qi Lian let go of his neck, took a step back, and said, "Your ex-girlfriend has already obtained a marriage certificate with someone else. You should go back. It's not gentlemanly to make such a scene."
Zhou Zhan's eyes were stunned.
I never expected that Shen Yuan and Xiao Yi would get their marriage certificate so quickly!
So fast that it was beyond his expectation.
He couldn't accept it, and was stunned for a moment, muttering to himself: "How is it possible? That silly woman has never forgotten me, so how could she get married with someone else just like that? They haven't been married for 30 years, so how come they got married as soon as I came to find her? She definitely doesn't love him, she must be doing this to piss me off, to get revenge on me..."
Qi Lian listened quietly and looked at Zhou Zhan as if he were a clown.
Some men remain teenagers until they die, probably because they are spoiled by women.
Zhou Zhan turned around abruptly, raised his hand and slammed the door loudly, shouting, "Eagle, Eagle, open the door, Eagle, come out, come out and follow me! Eagle, don't marry him! Eagle, you have to marry me!"
The bodyguards guarding the gate opened the door and walked out. Each of them held up one of his arms, stuffed him into the car and closed the door.
Qi Lian waved at Zhou Zhan’s bodyguards.
Zhou Zhan's bodyguards finally regained consciousness.
Qi Lian said to Zhou Zhan's bodyguards, "Send your master home. It's pointless and embarrassing to make such a fuss."
After that, he said to Yuan Shutian: "Let's get in the car."
Yuan Shutian nodded.
The two got in the car and sat down.
When Yuan Shutian thought about Qi Lian going to jail in the future, he felt sad and pursed his lips in silence.
Qi Lian thought that he could not give Yuan Shutan marriage and happiness like Xiao Yi did to Shen Yuan, and he felt guilty for a moment and remained silent.
The car drove to Qin Ye's house in Riyue Bay.
After getting off the car, the two walked in the underground parking lot.
Qi Lian silently took Yuan Shutian's hand, held it in his palm, and walked forward.
When they were almost at the elevator hall, he suddenly said, “If you want to get married in the future, I won’t make a scene like Zhou Zhan did, don’t worry.”
Yuan Shutian's heart sank.
I wanted to say that I knew the ending long ago and wouldn't mind, but I couldn't say it.
At first I was just following my heart and wanted to indulge myself, but love is something that is easy to give up but hard to take back.
The two walked into the elevator quietly, still holding hands.
After entering Qin Ye's house and passing by the elder's bedroom, Qi Lian finally let go of Yuan Shutian's hand and said to her softly, "Go upstairs first. I have something to say to your father."
Yuan Shutian nodded slightly.
After she entered the elevator, Qi Lian knocked on the elder's door.
The elder was half lying on the armchair reading a book.
He pushed the reading glasses on his nose, glanced at Qi Lian, and said unhappily: "You little bastard, are you trying to piss me off again?"
Qi Lian walked over to him and sat down, lowering his eyes and asking, "How is the investigation of the case of those corrupt officials going?"
The elder said, "Lei Chao, who raped your sister, is dead and there is no evidence. His son Pei Zhen is suspected of bribery, and the disciplinary inspection team has been sent to investigate. As for the others, it will take some time. The case involving your sister and your family is too long ago and the case is too complicated. We need to investigate it carefully. It is impossible to get to the bottom of it in just a few days."
Qi Lian listened quietly and reached out to snatch the book from his hand.
The elder was caught off guard, sat up, and said in a gruff voice: "You stinky boy, you are so rude, why did you snatch my book for no reason?"
Qi Lian ignored him, turned the book to the title page, picked up a pen from the table, and wrote two words: Qi Meng.
The elder tilted his head and stared at the two words. After a moment's deliberation, he cursed, "Bad boy, why did you write that little girl's name in my book?"
Qi Lian pointed his slender finger at the two words and said, "Separate these two words and see what they are."
The elder said: "Isn't this simple? Qi, Lin, Xi."
Qilian opened his lips lightly, "Under the Qilian Mountains, in the woods, at sunset."
The elder snorted and said, "Don't keep me in suspense. Just say what you want to say."
Qi Lian looked down at the title page of the book in silence and said softly, "There is something buried there. When I die, you can find someone to dig it out and give half to Lin Xi and half to Shu Tian. If you can't find the address, call Lin Xi. She knows."
The elder's heart suddenly began to beat in pain.
He used to be annoyed by these bandits, especially Qi Lian who seduced his daughter, but after hearing what he said, he felt uncomfortable for some reason.
He pretended to be angry and said, "Who cares about your stolen goods?"
Qi Lian said slowly, "They are not stolen goods, they are clean. In this line of work, something bad will happen sooner or later. I was worried that if I went to jail, Xiao Xi would not be able to take care of herself, leaving her with nothing to live on for the rest of her life. Since she has found her family, I will give half of them to Shu Tian. There are some writing brushes, inkstones, and paper, which were passed down by my master's ancestor. They are all stationery items from famous masters. You will definitely like them."
The old man's heart sank for a moment.
This brat is so annoying. I know just how to poke him in the heart.
He turned his face away and said unhappily, "I don't care, and neither does Shu Tian! I will send more people to solve the case for you as soon as possible. Once the investigation is complete, you can turn yourself in!"
Qi Lian nodded, "I will."
He sat quietly for a while, then stood up, supporting his legs with his arms, and walked out.
The elder stared at the closed door for a long time, then picked up his phone, dialed Yuan Jun's number, and asked, "Ah Jun, is there any room for improvement in Qi Lian's case?"
Yuan Jun thought for a moment and replied: "It's difficult."
"Think about it carefully. Although I hate that kid, his crime does not deserve death."
"Death penalty is not necessary, but life imprisonment is inevitable."
"That kid..." The elder's throat became stiff and he couldn't continue speaking for a while.
He sighed heavily.
For some reason, he could be so cruel to Yuan Jian and Yuan Zhonghuai, and he could also resolutely send his fourth son abroad, but he felt sympathy for that notorious bandit.
That's not his style.
He raised his hand and pressed his eye sockets, thinking to himself, what a cunning bad boy.
Writing down just two small words "Qi Meng" disturbed his usually rational mind.
He picked up the book and looked at the two words "Qi Meng" again. He couldn't help but feel curious. What on earth did that brat Qi Lian bury here?
It would be great if it was stolen property, digging it out could help reduce his sentence.
He began to think about sending someone to dig it out, but Yuan Jun couldn't be sent to do this.
There were countless eyes staring at Yuan Jun from behind.
It would not be appropriate to send Qin Ye and Qin Lu. He is living in the Qin family now, and there must be someone secretly watching this father and son.
After thinking about it, the elder thought of someone, Gu Yifeng.
He is a man of both civil and military talents, intelligent and flexible, and is considered an outsider, so he will not be noticed by too many people.
After thinking for a long time, the elder dialed Qin Ye's number and arranged: "Aye, I have a book here, please send someone to give it to Yifeng for me."
