Chapter 58 : Zhongshan Country [5]

Qi Xi hugged his wrinkled windbreaker and snorted: “Xiao Qiuqiu, you are so mercilessly destroy flowers, you don't pity me at all——”

“I am sorry that I have no pity for you when I think of your true form.” Zhang Qiu snorted back. This guy had the nerve to pretend to be delicate with him when it was no problem for him to pick up a 1.8 m tall robust man in one hand.

“That's hurt, Xiao Qiuqiu.” Qi Xi lay on his back and rolled on the bed. What he hated most was his true form. It was not good-looking at all; really damaged his pretty vase image.

Zhang Qiu was too lazy to argue with Qi Xi and went straight back.

When Qi Xi, who was in bed, saw Zhang Qiu really gone, he suddenly wailed and shouted that Zhang Qiu had no conscience, and took his mobile phone to complain to Xiao Zhang, “… I'm going to stay intoxicated.”

“My good brother, you yourself don't know how much you can drink ah! Half a gla.s.s gets you wildly drunk; a gla.s.s makes you collapse. You had better not drink.” At the other end of the phone, Xiao Zhang felt like scratching his heart and lungs.

Qi Xi suffered a series of severe injuries, and had no desire to speak at all. He hung up Xiao Zhang's chattering on the phone, got up and walked downstairs to the bar beautifully dressed. He could not drink half a gla.s.s but could always taste a mouthful.

Zhang Qiu returned to his room and changed Xiao Jiang's clothes. He looked at his watch— it was lunch time. He went to the restaurant with Xiao Jiang in his arms. Not long after he started eating, he heard a loud bang. Everyone in the restaurant was stunned.

Soon after, everyone went to take a look at the source. It should be the bar set up by the hotel.

Zhang Qiu's ears moved. “Seems like Qi Xi's voice…”

“Go and see.” said Zhang YuShui decisively.

Zhang Qiu grabbed his Xiao Jiang and walked over to the small door of the bar. There were two robust men stood outside the door, wearing black formal dress and black sungla.s.ses, holding out hands to block their way in. “Gentlemen, my Master has something to deal with inside, please wait a moment.”

The words were polite, but the tone was absolutely non-negotiable.

Pixian Hui w.a.n.g laughed and pushed aside the man's hand. The man didn't take Pixian Hui w.a.n.g seriously when he first saw his beautiful face, as the result, the action was too strong. His complexion changed and he used his entire strength but Pixian Hui w.a.n.g gave him a cold sneer and turned his hand over. The man couldn't restrain himself from screaming and the other man came up to help and was dealt by Zhang Yushui.

Almost at the same time, Zhang Qiu held Xiao Jiang and pushed the door open. When Zhang Qiu could see the situation inside, he really wanted to take the door with him.

Qi Xi's eyes were watery, his face was red, his arms were around the neck of an indifferent man, and his whole body weight was hanging on the other man. He teasingly breathed in the other man's ear and said gleefully, “Am I not beautiful? Why did you push me away?”

It was an appearance of a drunken man played wildly drunk and taking advantage of others. Zhang Qiu felt a headache. The man's back was thin and straight that Zhang Qiu could feel the anger of the other man without looking at the other man's expression. Zhang Qiu couldn't help helping slapping his forehead. Qi Xi then reached up and licked the man's earlobe gently with the tip of his tongue.

Not everyone was bent, even more not to mention the guileless and valiant folkways in northern Shaanxi, they were real menfolk. You teased a person like that; it was already mercy for the straight man not to brutally hurt you.

“That, that my friend is drunk——” Zhang Qiu went up and waited for the man man's figure to turn around. Then he was stunned. “Mr. Qi?”

It was actually Qi ZhiRong.

When Zhang Qiu first met Qi ZhiRong, his greatest impression was Qi ZhiRong's indifference. Qi ZhiRong seemed to be indifferent to anything. His eyes were as cold as looking at an object, detached like he had no desire and demand.

At this moment Qi ZhiRong frowned and slightly reddened —he should be very angry. He pushed Qi Xi who still wants to climb on him with one hand.

Qi Xi, like love-struck fool, grinned and hugged Qi ZhiRong's neck tightly. “Baby, you can't get rid of me. Hahahahaha, I am——”

Zhang Qiu put a hand over Qi Xi's mouth. Qi Xi's hummed, whined and struggled hard just in time as Pixian Hui w.a.n.g and Zhang Yushui came. Zhang Qiu brushed his forehead with cold sweat and apologized, “I'm sorry, my friend is drunk. Mr. Qi, do not be angry. When he wakes up, you can beat him up ruthlessly to vent anger. His skin is course and his flesh is thick enough to resists beating.”

Qi ZhiRong returned to the appearance of when they first met. Except for the scarlet face, one could not see how angry he had just been. He did not even look at Zhang Qiu as he went straight out and two bodyguards at the door immediately followed him.

The whole bar was in a mess, and when the waiter came out at that moment, his eyes were s.h.i.+ning and he stuttered in excitement. “He, he is Qi Xi?”

“I'm not Qi Xi, I'm Xiao XianNan[1]. Where are my gla.s.ses?! I wore gla.s.ses!” said Qi Xi as he lay on Zhang YuShui's shoulder, feeling dizzy.

[1= Xiao (small/tiny/young) Xian (Immortal) Nan (Man)]

Zhang Qiu said calmly, “My friend has a problem with his brain. We don't know anything about Qi Xi. The bar was smashed, you can ask him for compensation when he wakes up.” He gave Qi Xi's room number.

The waiter also thought it was unlikely. How could a tall, cold and echanting Qi Xi be a neuropathy? Only after two mouthful of drink the man began to get mad drunk, and he caught someone and embraced the person. Fortunately, I walked fast.

They carried the noisily arguing Xiao XianNan on the shoulder all the way. Zhang Qiu couldn't help wanting to kill him until they arrived and Zhang Yushui threw the man onto the bed. The three of them looked at each other and left immediately after. They really couldn't tolerate Qi Xi like this.

Qi Xi wrapped himself up like a zongzi that night. To compensate for the damage of the hotel bar's counter made him mentally distressed that he was supporting his chin, loos in thought.

Zhang Qiu watched the cartoon with Xiao Jiang in his arms. He didn't even look at Qi Xi as he asked, “If your hangover done, go to Qi ZhiRong to apologize. That's quite another matter that you molest people like that. If I hadn't gone early, your face might have bruised.”

“Don't bully me, I don't remember. Clearly Xiao Rongrong is shy and his blus.h.i.+ng face is so cute!”

What with that strange girl's in love tone? Zhang Qiu stiffly moved his neck over, “You don't really have a problem with your brain, right?”

“You don't understand. It's the feeling of love.” Qi Xi waved. “Say, how to make him notice my beauty and fall in love with me quickly?”

When Zhang Qiu thought of Qi ZhiRong's indifferent manner, he couldn't imagine what Qi Xi said about him falling in love and being shy.

“You're still thinking about it quite fast in your dream.” Zhang Qiu couldn't tell if Qi Xi was joking or serious. “I didn't see you like that at the last party.”

“That day I couldn't help wanting to transform after drinking mixed-alcohol drinks. I left in a hurry and didn't see Xiao Rongrong at all. It's a pity, Xiao Rongrong and I could have fallen in love at first sight…”

Zhang Qiu couldn't bear Qi Xi's words anymore. He had a black line on his head. In the end, he couldn't think of anything to say, only: “As long as you are happy.”

“I knew Xiao Qiuqiu would support me, but now I'm going back to find Xiao Rongrong in my war suit!” Qi Xi clattered away.

When did Zhang Qiu say he supported Qi Xi? What's in this man's head?!!!

Qi Xi really went to Qi ZhiRong. He pestered him everyday with a thick skin and a big head. Zhang Qiu could see that Qi ZhiRong was unhappy. Qi Xi still could smile while he told him: my Xiao Rongrong is upset.

To be honest, this way of wooing people was really annoying.

“You don't understand. Xiao Rongrong is so cold that if I don't persistently pester him, I won't be able to catch him.” Qi Xi came over and shared his experience with Zhang Qiu. He patted his chest and said, “You really need to listen to me. Don't put Li Shu on a pole so high. It's okay to stick to me——”

“You should stop. I'd rather hold Xiao Jiang.” Zhang Qiu didn't want to talk to Qi Xi anymore. He preferred to watch cartoons with Xiao Jiang.

Who knew if it was because Qi Xi diligently running to Qi ZhiRong, but the originally had not make any movement Qi ZhiRong left the hotel at 10 in the night on the fourth day. It was better to split the two storms. Another storm was still in the hotel. Zhang YuShui didn't find anything wrong until the next morning, but it was too late. They didn't know where the people were going at all.

Qi Xi stretched out and asked while yawning, “Why are you looking so strange? What happened?”

“Qi ZhiRong left last night. We don't know where he went. Do you want to ask the people who stayed behind?” Zhang Qiu asked Zhang YuShui, “Second brother, let's frighten them and make a fool of them.”

Qi Xi who had heard it was laughing with waist bent, laughing out loud. Zhang Qiu kicked Qi Xi. Qi Xi quickly waved his hand and gleefully said: “Don't bother, I know where Xiao Rongrong has gone——”

“You know?” Impossible was written on all over Zhang Qiu's face.

Qi Xi snorted, “I have a heart to heart love with my Xiao Rongrong. You don't understand that.”

They had no choice but to listen to Qi Xi suspiciously and check out. Pixian Hui w.a.n.g rented a seven-pa.s.senger vehicle and they quickly packed their luggage. Qi Xi sat with sungla.s.ses on to while showing Pei Qing the way.

Able to paint a word picture, he really seemed to know.

Zhang Qiu asked curiously, “How on earth did you know that?” Just like Li Shu used the worm to guide them.

“Already said that it's really heart to heart love, you can do it too for you and Li Shu ah!” said Qi Xi simply.

Zhang Qiu was stunned before he realized that Qi Xi was telling the truth. He couldn't help looking at Zhang YuShui. “Second brother, is there such a magic?” At this moment, his second brother's status as a huckster should be given to Qi Xi.

“I haven't heard of the name of that magic. But these types really do work, like telepathy and also harming where the one follows the other person's wound bound with magic.” Zhang YuShui said, turning his head and looking at Pixian Hui w.a.n.g, “Shall we try? It's fun.” Moving closer, he whispered those words to Pixian Hui w.a.n.g.

Zhang Qiu sat in the distance with an awkward face. It was also a kind of torment to listen too well at this moment.

The stimulation of heart to heart love also could be share along and what not. Zhang Qiu couldn't bear to look straight at his second brother's Great Immortal face.

Qi Xi smiled and said, “If you guys want, I can provide the method with our friends.h.i.+p. Xiao Qiuqiu, would you like to give it a go with Li Shu? Every evening when you think of him, he feels like…”

“Do you know that you look so vulgar?” Zhang Qiu asked seriously.

“Tsk, really prudish.” Qi Xi did not give up, “Later on if you want to, find me anytime. I don't charge good friend any fees.”

The vehicle went into high-speed road to north and Qi Xi nestled in the pa.s.senger seat taking a nap. At noon, they had a quick lunch at the high-speed rest station. Zhang Yushui replaced Pei Qing and continued to go on the road after filling the gas until about 7 in the evening when it was dark.

“We can't sleep well on the vehicle. Let's go to a nearby county town tonight and have a good rest. Then let's leave tomorrow morning, shall we?” said Qi Xi, who was yawning after sleeping all day in the pa.s.senger seat.

Zhang Qiu did not know what to say, he looked at everyone. Everyone had no objection and decided to find a place to sleep at the next high-speed rest stop. Who knew that Qi Xi, who had just been slouching as if he had no bones, suddenly changed his face and even urgently said, “I'll drive, pull over.”

“What's wrong?” said Zhang Qiu nervously as he was influenced by Qi Xi's ambiance.

Qi Xi gripped his chest, “It's suddenly hurt just now, Qi ZhiRong is in danger.”

“You can't drive, let me.” Pei Qing opened his mouth. Qi Xi was tied up with Qi ZhiRong; in case something happened to each other, the people in the vehicle were all in danger.

Zhang YuShui had no objection and he pulled to change with Pei Qing. Qi Xi sat beside him with taut mind while pointing the way. After a while, his face turned white and his forehead was cold sweating. Zhang Qiu saw that Qi Xi was in a bad condition, but he did not know what to do now. He just hoped Qi ZhiRong would be all right.

After about ten minutes, Qi Xi suddenly said, “Exit here.”

The car went off the high-speed. After driving for more than an hour, the road became b.u.mpy and the sky was raining. The temperature was very low and Pei Qing turned on the heater in the vehicle. The cold sweat on Qi Xi's face gradually went down, but his face was still white.

“Turn the corner.” Qi Xi pointed the direction.

This darkness was the outskirts farmland. In the distance, scattered household lights were lit. It was a small village.

They entered the village under Qi Xi's direction. Barely pa.s.sing through the village, they found three black Land Rovers. Zhang Qiu recognized that it was Qi ZhiRong's car. It seemed they had caught up. Pei Qing had not stopped yet, but Qi Xi had jumped out and ran directly to a farmer's house.

In the darkness of the night, a dog's bark echoed. Zhang Qiu heard a fiercely cold whisper. It was Qi Xi. The dog's bark was choked back and it went whimpering like an obedient dog.

“Who are you guys looking for?”

“Where are the people who came to your house today?”

“Ooh, you guys are a group? There are so many people lodging here, you have to pay more.”

Zhang Qiu, carrying a small bag of luggage, got off with Xiao Jiang, who was already asleep, and then said to the farmer's owner, “No problem, you will get the money.”

Moments ago, the owner was frightened by Qi Xi's fierce expression, so he was likely to listen to Zhang Qiu's offer of money. He would also like to take advantage of the opportunity to raise the price. When he looked back and saw Pei Qing, he muttered a local dirty word and pointed to the second floor. “All coming together late at night, there's not so much bedding in the house. They make a racket and still had not gone to sleep …” After that, he draped his clothes over his shoulder and went back to his room.

Qi Xi had gone upstairs. The courtyard house had two floors and there was no compartment in the main hall. When Zhang Qiu went up with his luggage, the door of the room opened. The atmosphere inside was not very good. All six men in formal dress stood up and stared at them closely.

Zhang Qiu saw Li Shu sitting on a chair with closed eyes within the crowd. Li Shu might have felt his staring that he immediately opened his eyes and swept over. His eyes were sharp and ice-cold, waiting until the person took his line of sight back.

“It's our predestined. I just want to say h.e.l.lo to your boss. Don't be so serious!” Qi Xi, who had just been in a hurry said smilingly at this moment.

Six people remained motionless. Zhang Qiu saw a narrow bed in the back corner of these people. Qi ZhiRong was probably lying on that bed. They were making such a racket but Qi ZhiRong was still sleeping peacefully. It seemed Qi Xi was right that Qi ZhiRong ought to be injured, but it should not be a big deal.

This room was very narrow and long. One of the men glanced at them and said with a straight face, “This half (area) is ours. Don't come here.” This was focused on Qi Xi.

In addition to Qi ZhiRong's narrow bed, the whole room also had wooden beds with chairs, covered with broken mats. The six people did not move at all. They gave all the beds to them and slept in their sleeping bags.

Once Zhang Qiu pressed on the bed, the creaking echoed. There was no cover for the hard frame. He held Xiao Jiang in one hand and wrapped Xiao Jiang tightly with his coat in the other. They did not have much thick clothes, let alone bedding and sleeping bags.

Pixian Hui w.a.n.g looked at Zhang Qiu and said, “You sleep on the bed with Xiao Jiang for the night, and we'll be in the chairs.”

“The bed is no different from the chair.” Zhang Qiu said so, but still put Xiao Jiang on the bed, took out some clothes and spread them on. Then he put Xiao Jiang on the makes.h.i.+ft bedding and he himself slept beside him leaning on his side.

After a while, Qi Xi pulled out a nightgown and handed it to Zhang Qiu. Zhang Qiu thanked him and made do to go sleep, but his eyes crossed towards the crowd and looked straight at Li Shu on the chair.

Unknowingly, he fell asleep and s.h.i.+vering in the middle of the night. Suddenly, he felt a heavy weight on his body. Zhang Qiu was startled. In the dark, he saw a pair of familiar eyes.

“Li Shu?”

The other person had already left. Zhang Qiu pulled something on his body and saw that it was an unopened sleeping bag. He held the sleeping bag and looked at Li Shu on the chair. Zhang Qiu's lips reached to the root of his ears.

Even if he lost his memory, Li Shu still loved him very very much.

Zhang Qiu smugly thought.
