Hualalaâ
âIt has been raining for three days, our business has slowed down.â Manager Cai stood in the wind and was smoking coquettishly with a sad face.
Ming Shu stood beside her, drinking milk tea. âHowâs the expansion plan going?â
Speaking of this, Manager Cai was even more anxious. âNot very well. This area was all prime locations, no one wants to leave a place that can make money, not even if you pay them extra.â
âThatâs because you havenât paid enough extra.â
âThe budget is limited, what can I do?â
â...â Ming Shu bit into the straw. âThereâs only one way then.â
âWhat?â
âRob the bank.â
Manager Cai: â...â Iâm just listening.
The two women stood outside like that and talked about the recent events.
Ming Shu checked the time. Why hasnât my little goblin arrived this late?
She called yet no one answered.
Ming Shu had a bad feeling. Almost at the same time, the people assigned by Brother Long to escort Yu Jing called her.
âSister Qi, some people came after Mr. Yu, we had some people go intercept them but they were held up.â
There was a lot of noise coming from the other end, mixed with the rain.
...
Because of the rain, as well as the fact that it was the National Day Holidays, several roads had been blocked.
When Ming Shu arrived, there were multiple scenes of car accidents. Yu Jing sat on the edge of an ambulance, covered under a towel, and the nurses walking past didnât seem to dare to approach him.
The rain blocked his figure and made it seem unreal.
Ming Shu rushed over. âDid you get hurt?â
Yu Jingâs first reaction was to embrace Ming Shu. Ming Shu patted him on the back. Sheâd been careless this time, she shouldnât have left him alone.
She forgot that the present Qi Yu had no memories, so of course he wouldnât have those mysterious and powerful means.
Yu Jingâs fingers were a little cold and pressed on the back of Ming Shuâs head. His wet arms kept holding her tight as if he wanted to squeeze all the air out of her body.
Ming Shu moved her face aside and kissed his earlobe, then moved to the front slowly, kissing Yu Jing on his cheek. Yu Jing loosened his hold slowly until Ming Shu kissed his lips.
In public, Ming Shu didnât want to go too far.
Ming Shu asked the traffic police there a few questions and learned that it was a pileup. The front cars rear-ended, and on rainy days the drivers could not see clearly, so several cars hit one another, followed by large trucks, leading to the current situation.
Ming Shu pulled Yu Jing along and got in the car after that.
âTake off your wet clothes.â Ming Shu turned on the heater. It had been raining for several days and the weather was cool.
Yu Jing looked ahead and didnât move. After a long time, he said, âThey wanted to kill me.â
âIâll help kill them for you. Be good, take off your clothes first.â
Yu Jing still had no response.
Ming Shu herself unbuttoned his shirt. His skin under the shirt was beautifully lined, with defined abs and waistline.
Ming Shu put the shirt aside and wiped his body with a towel.
âThe pants.â
Yu Jing turned his head to look at Ming Shu; his eyes seemed to be a bit confused.
Ming Shu didnât say much and just started removing his pants directly. His trousers were torn down, leaving only a pair of boxers.
When Ming Shu accidentally scratched his skin, Yu Jingâs body quivered. Then the confusion in his eyes faded and he seemed to return to himself.
Sitting naked in the passenger seat now, Yu Jing could do nothing but curse heavily inside.
Ming Shu pulled the blanket from behind them and threw it over him. She carefully arranged the bottom of the blanket, pressing the ends underneath him.
Yu Jing suddenly grabbed her wrist.
âThankfully... You came to me.â Otherwise, he didnât know what he was going to do. He felt that there was a beast in his body, and for a moment it wanted to rush out and take over.
But when he saw her, he became very calm.
No grudges or entanglements, no infighting, and no brothers killing each other...
His world was only left with her.
âI would have to collect your body if I hadnât come for you.â Ming Shu did not break his grip and started the car with one hand.
Yu Jing: â...â Canât you say something nice!
I just walked to the gates of hell!
You almost never see a girl with such a handsome boyfriend!
Would comforting me kill you!
Calm down!
I canât be grumpy!
I canât be grumpy with my girlfriend!
Ming Shu was completely unaware of Yu Jingâs complaints. âDo you know who did it?â
âI donât know, the person who hit me escaped.â Yu Jing paused. âDid you arrange for someone to follow me?â
Had it not been for some help, his car might have been knocked over.
âWas it the Yu family?â Ming Shu murmured. âSince we donât know who did it, we can just handle them all at once.â
Yu Jing suddenly said, âI can manage this without your help.â
Ming Shu smiled. âYouâve been hunted and nearly killed without the ability to fight back, how can you deal with it by yourself?â
Yu Jing was silent for a few seconds. âI have a thirty-five percent equity stake.â
âThirty-five?â Ming Shu thought for a while. âIsnât that all the equity that Old Mister Yu owned when he died?â
âYes.â
âHavenât all those shares been allocated...â Ming Shu paused and understood something. âSo it is. Your old man really cared about you.â
Old Mister Yu left two bills, the first one was normal allocation, but the other was all about Yu Jing.
Both wills had been notarized and were valid wills.
If Yu Jing would not take out the latter will, the former will was valid; if he would take it out, the former would be invalid.
Yu Jing thought of the scene of going to the Yu family to burn incense for Old Mister Yu before, but he didnât feel it very profound. It was like... someone elseâs life.
He was just following the path of someone elseâs life.
Old Mister Yu knew he had no interest in the Yu familyâs property and worried someone would harm him, so he arranged things for him.
From a fatherâs point of view, it was unfair to the other children, but...
Some people were born with preferences.
Like Yu Jing.
Although he suffered from the exclusion and white eyes of outsiders, he had Old Mister Yu to protect him.
Like Qiao Qi.
She had parents cared about and loved her. They would support her in whatever she did.
But no matter what kind of family circumstances one was born in, how he had been preferred, they still had to rely on themselves to get anywhere.
There were plenty of people who came from good families, but ended up doing nothing.
There were also plenty of people who came from ordinary families, but shone brightly in the world.
âHave you ever thought that maybe itâs because of the thirty-five percent stake you own that someone wants to kill you?â Ming Shu suddenly asked. âSecond Mister Yu only wanted to kidnap you and rob you of the shares, but now thereâs a person here who wants to kill you by all manner of means.â
So there was only one possibility.
The killer knew he had another valid will, and it was enough to overturn all their allocations in the former will.
So he must be removed.
The will would never be seen until he died.
âSo my eldest brother is the prime suspect?â If he died, as things stood, it would be in the best interest of Yu Jingguo.
âJust kidnap him and ask questions, weâll know by then.â
Yu Jing: â...â
Why is my wife so ferocious?
