Chapter 839: People Do Not Fight Officials
With the willpower that shocked the whole earth, Qi Yan forced himself to suppress the upward curl of his lips.
He showed a look of fear and said weakly:
"I was wrong. Don't expose me. I'll do anything you ask me to do."
Du Yaoye raised his eyebrows excitedly.
She thought she would need to waste a lot of time and effort on talking and promising various benefits in order to impress this guy who could have a relationship with Wei Yanwu.
Unexpectedly, the result was that when she wanted to doze off, the other party gave her a pillow.
It was obvious that Shi Huaiya was used to being spoiled in his daily life. He actually took the initiative to expose his weakness and became the one being threatened.
Du Yaoye, whose confidence surged, raised his chin and motioned Qi Yan to speak.
"No, no, the scenery here is beautiful."
Qi Yan shook his head repeatedly.
Du Yaoye:?
"Miss, he is looking at your legs." The follower reminded in a low voice.
"You! Rogue!"
Du Yaoye quickly put out his hands to cover his legs and quickly walked away from Qi Yan.
Seeing the delicious food running away, Qi Yan pouted, stood up, patted his butt, and asked before Du Yaoye got angry:
"So, how does our Miss Du plan to cooperate?"
"Humph!"
Du Yaoye snorted coldly, temporarily giving up the idea of teaching Qi Yan a lesson, and said, "Do you remember the time when I had a conflict with you guys in the inn?"
"Remember, you were going to find Lao Li to snatch the wine cup, but you mistook Wu You for Lao Li."
Qi Yan shook his head and said, "But even though you suffered a great loss, you still feel unwilling to accept it and can't forget the wine cup, because this involves the secret deal between your father and Si Suitai, and you want to ruin this matter.
After the success, you can use this opportunity to undermine your father's prestige, win over your young followers, hold high the banner to seize the management rights of the business, and carry out new era reforms in your family's business."
"You, you, you...how do you know this?"
Du Yaoye was obviously frightened and even stuttered when he spoke.
This time it was Qi Yan's turn to raise his chin confidently and said proudly:
"Do you think I...Shi Huaiya is a young girl who has just started out like you?
When I was hanging around in the mall, you were still chasing after your dad for candy."
"You make it sound like you're much older than me." Du Yaoye complained with a weird look on his face, "And I mean hanging around in shopping malls, not shopping malls."
"That's right, it's the mall."
Qi Yan's face was full of pride: "When I was eight years old, I bought scratch tickets from the self-service lottery machine in the mall and made twenty dollars. I achieved lollipop freedom through my own efforts!"
Du Yaoye: “…”
"Miss, is this man really not a fool?"
The follower couldn't help but bring up the old matter again.
Du Yaoye glared at his follower, signaling him not to cause trouble.
Then Du Yaoye looked at Qi Yan again and reminded:
"You don't need to act crazy and waste time here. I'm just waiting for your friends to come over."
"You're not planning to lure them to some remote place, catch them all in one fell swoop, and then walk away with the wine cup, right?"
This time it was Qi Yan's turn to look at Du Yaoye and the other man as if they were fools.
Du Yaoye said anxiously: "What nonsense are you talking about? I just want to muddy the waters.
I can see clearly that Lord Liang and the big man from Si Suitai who are following you are not in harmony with each other. Even though they are willing to travel together for some reason, they are secretly calculating against each other from their positions to their words. "
"You're quite accurate." Qi Yan couldn't help but laugh.
Du Yaoye seemed a little unhappy and immediately defended himself:
"If my father hadn't told me to pretend to be a willful and capricious young man in order to protect me, I would have started managing the company a long time ago."
"Then have you ever thought about why your father doesn't want you to expose yourself too early?"
"It's because the company used to be in the escort business, and my father is worried that the enemies from the past will come looking for him."
"Wrong."
"what?"
Seeing that Du Yaoye didn't react, Qi Yan shook his head and said:
"Your father is worried about you because you are still a child and your thinking and behavior are based on childish logic."
"Who are you calling a kid?!"
"Look, he's in a hurry."
Qi Yan taught him, "You act impulsively and without considering the consequences. You may be a little clever, but you think too simply. You have made so many mistakes in such a short period of time without realizing it.
It's just that you met me. If you were any other powerful official's son, and you dared to kidnap him so blatantly, your business would go bankrupt in the next second!"
"Are you threatening me?" Anger appeared on Du Yaoye's face.
"I'm just stating the facts." Qi Yan looked directly into Du Yaoye's eyes, "Since ancient times, the people have never fought against the officials. You must have heard this saying, but you don't understand the horror of it.
Do you think that your father, who runs such a large business with stores all over Shangshu, would still try every means to establish connections with the imperial court?
Could it be that he likes to be someone's younger brother?
Because he knew that they could settle all their enemies and seek protection for their descendants because of a word from the court, or they could never see the sun tomorrow because of a word from the court!"
"You...it's useless even if you scare me like this!" Du Yaoye said with all his might.
Qi Yan really couldn't help but laugh at her.
Perhaps because the timeline was advanced, Du Yaoye behaved more childishly than the little tiger girl in his impression.
"If you don't agree, we can make a bet." Qi Yan threw out the fishing hook.
"What's the bet?" Du Yaoye hooked the fish.
Qi Yan said leisurely: "From now on, you and your little followers will obey my unified command.
In exchange, I can help you muddy the waters, so that all those who enter the game will get nothing, and let your father voluntarily allow you to be free and no longer restrict you from realizing your ambitions in the company."
"Why should I believe you?" Du Yaoye was obviously hooked, but he was still struggling.
"Don't be impatient, let the bullets fly for a while."
Qi Yan chose to let out a long fishing line, waiting for the fish to waste all its energy in vain.
Du Yaoye frowned frequently.
She found that even though she was being straightforward when talking to Qi Yan, it was more tiring than talking to her father and other elders.
Just as Du Yaoye was thinking about the reason, someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside.
"Miss, it's bad, something big has happened!" A follower shouted from outside the door.
Du Yaoye hurried over to open the door and said urgently:
"What happened? Did Lord Liang directly call the officers to surround us?"
"No... not!"
The follower ran out of breath, his face sweating as he said, "The companion who was in charge of keeping an eye on Sir Liang said that Sir Liang and his men were eating and drinking well in the inn, as if they didn't notice that the young master had been kidnapped.
But the news soon reached the ears of Shopkeeper Zheng, who was so angry that he smashed his two favorite walnuts with one palm. "
Du Yaoye took a breath and said in shock:
"It seems my father is really angry. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape confinement when I go back this time."
"Confinement? You are too naive." Qi Yan came over, leaned against the door frame and said with a smile, "Your father is a smart man. Why not listen to what your follower has to report?"
Du Yaoye immediately signaled his follower to continue speaking.
The follower took two breaths, looked at Qi Yan in fear, and said in a trembling voice:
"Manager Zheng's anger came and went quickly, and he seemed to be in a panic. He even ordered the secret sale of part of the property to send you away from Shangshu.
He went to find Lord Liang and the others, saying that as long as he could save you, he would sacrifice his family property and his life.
“Why have things suddenly become so serious?!” Du Yaoye’s face turned pale with fright.
"What do you think?"
Qi Yan said sarcastically, "You know Duke Wei of Longmen and Simuitai, but you don't know the true meaning of these two names.
If you choose either of them, it would be enough to destroy your business a hundred or eighty times. But you just kidnapped me, a scourge combined with the two. If your father isn't worried, who would be?
Girl, I, Beatrix Shihuaiya Qi, recognize your ability to commit suicide! "
