Chapter 40
Discovery, Night Raid
At the same time, Tang Mingqi and his eldest brother were sitting opposite each other on the sofa. Their slender and well-proportioned legs were crossed. One was as warm as jade, while the other was fresh and handsome.
The living room was cold and quiet with no lights on. The moonlight poured in like water. In the silence of the room, no one spoke.
“What is it you want to say?”
Tang Mingzhou leaned forward and picked up a red and plump apple. His knuckles were clean and distinct. In the blink of an eye, he had peeled off a thin and long peel and handed the apple over.
Tang Mingqi took a big bite. “Don’t you feel that Susu has changed too much?”
At the thought of his sister, the man’s lips curved into a doting smile. “Has she?”
“She has the system, so she might have had some fortuitous encounter. But can a person obtain countless skills in such a short time, change her character, double her IQ, and even kill people without changing her expression?”
Tang Mingzhou’s expression turned serious. “Do you think she’s in the wrong?”
“No, I didn’t mean it that way!” Tang Mingqi quickly clarified and felt a little wronged from being misunderstood. “I won’t say that she’s right either, but even if she’s wrong, so what? She’s my sister. I’ll support her no matter what she does!”
The young man said this in a rude and overbearing manner.
“Then that’s it.”
Tang Mingzhou suddenly quieted down as he laughed. His dark eyes seemed to be filled with pain and reluctance.
“We’ve done all that we could for the old Susu,”
Tang Mingqi’s pupils trembled, as if he had verified some kind of guess, and his heart ached.
After a long time, he seemed to be trying to convince himself. “The current Susu is also our sister.”
“Then why are you still so conflicted?” Tang Mingzhou could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
“I just feel sorry for what she has gone through in the past to have such a strong character and ability…”
A hint of sadness flashed across Tang Mingzhou’s face.
The fragrance of plum blossoms came from the bitter cold.
She must have suffered a lot in the past to cherish everyone and every opportunity so much. She didn’t dare to slack off in the slightest.
Suddenly, Tang Mingqi’s ear twitched and broke the depressed atmosphere. “Someone’s coming!”
The corners of Tang Mingzhou’s lips curled up. He unhurriedly picked up the crossbow on the coffee table and aimed it at the window-
The arrow was shot out with a whoosh, and a miserable cry was heard.
Immediately after, You Cheng’s curses could be heard. “Who are you? What are you doing here? Stop, don’t run!”
He could only hear two footsteps running away quickly, one after the other.
After a short while, You Cheng walked over in a rage. “That brat ran pretty fast. It’s a teenager, should be from the group of people from earlier in the day!”
In the end, the two of them sat on the sofa leisurely and did not move.
One was drinking tea while the other was eating oranges. It was a very pleasant scene.
“Aren’t you afraid that the other party might have a motive?”
“We’ve made all the necessary preparations. Only the other party is afraid of us.” Tang Mingzhou snorted, “What are you doing here?”
“Ahem, I know I did something stupid and brought you trouble…”
“As an apology, you don’t have to return the ten million you borrowed from me.” In front of Tang Mingzhou, You Cheng tore up the loan receipt he had written.
At that time, the Tang family had been crazily storing up supplies and did not have enough money, so Tang Mingzhou had borrowed ten million from You Cheng.
It was only with their relationship that they could borrow money without giving a reason.
“If I had known, I would have borrowed 100 million.”
You Cheng’s mouth twitched. “Where’s your baby sister?”
Tang Mingqi immediately looked at him as if he was a thief. “Aren’t you the most annoyed with her?”
You Cheng froze for a moment and was also a little puzzled. He actually cared about where that troublemaker went.
“I’m just afraid that she’ll come around.”
“Hehe, don’t think too much. Susu doesn’t care about you at all now!”
You Cheng frowned.
“Is there anything else?”
Tang Mingzhou was a little impatient and wanted to chase him away. He could practice the cultivation technique that Susu gave him even if his legs were not good. He could not wait to use it to improve his strength.
Speaking of business, You Cheng’s face darkened. “Do you have a radio? My second uncle’s men haven’t come yet. I’m a little worried that something happened to them…”
