At Changping Cemetery in Haidian District, Beijing, Qiao Liansheng held a bouquet of chrysanthemums and gently placed it beside the tombstone. Xue Lingyun's photo was pasted on the tombstone, her beautiful face and elegant smile.
Looking at the photo on the tombstone, Qiao Liansheng rubbed his sore nose and was speechless.
"Er Mao Zi, you should thank her." Madman Zhang, who had been standing behind him, suddenly said something irrelevant. There was no trace of mourning on his honest face.
Qiao Liansheng gritted his teeth and stared at the photo. He slowly said,""Why didn't you save her? I know you have that ability, so why didn't you save her?”Thinking about it later, Qiao Liansheng remembered that Lunatic Zhang had already dealt with those people from the Northeast Gang, but he had been standing at the side without doing anything. He believed that Lunatic Zhang had the ability to find an opportunity to save Xue Lingyun from Jun Hao Yan Sheng.
"The value of her death is far higher than her life.”Madman Zhang smiled faintly, as if he didn't care about Qiao Liansheng's resentful tone.
Qiao Liansheng smiled bitterly. A man needed a woman's death to wake him up. What a sad price to pay! Perhaps, Xue Lingyun, who had been humiliated by Jun Hao and Yan Sheng, could only choose this method to prove her innocence. However, her departure made her feel like he owed her for the rest of his life.
" Qiao Liansheng…" Qiao Liansheng was still immersed in grief when an angry shout suddenly came from nearby. Turning her head, she saw Jun Haoye leading five people towards them.
Qiao Liansheng slowly turned around with a faint smile on her face. Her eyes gradually darkened as she silently waited for Jun Haoye to walk over. The moment he saw Xue Lingyun die, he abandoned the word 'merciful' and threw a fire into the warehouse the night before. Therefore, he wasn't worried that Jun Haoye would find any evidence.
"Where is Yan Sheng?" Jun Haoye led the five of them to Qiao Liansheng. His face was cold and filled with anger as he questioned her.
Qiao Liansheng's lips curled up and she laughed indifferently." Young Master Junhao, why are you looking for your younger brother? I don't have a personal relationship with your brother. You should know this very well!”Although she didn't understand why Jun Haoye would be so concerned about such an arrogant and ignorant Jun Haoyan, it didn't mean that she would really submit to Jun Haoye's family.
"Qiao Liansheng, I, Jun Haoye, have a good temper, but I won't allow the same thing to happen again!”Jun Haoye snorted coldly. Then, he frowned and suppressed his anger."Let her go and I can pretend that nothing happened.”
If it weren't for the benefits of his family and the position of the Dragon Lord of the Nine Dragons Union, Jun Haoye wouldn't have swallowed his pride and lowered his stance.
"Young Master Jun Hao, I really don't understand what you're talking about.”Qiao Liansheng smiled and shook her head, looking like she didn't know what was good for her.
Jun Haoye's eyes widened. He suddenly took two steps forward and grabbed Qiao Liansheng's collar. He glared at Qiao Liansheng and said coldly,""I can make you disappear from the world in an instant. You'd better not laugh at me and let her out!”
"Humph…"
Qiao Liansheng suddenly laughed and said indifferently,""Are you so sure that I will attack Yan Sheng?”
"What are you trying to say?" Jun Haoye frowned slightly, but he didn't plan to let go. Last night, the people from the Northeast Gang came to look for him. They said that Junhao Yan Sheng had asked more than a dozen people from the gang to do something the night before, but they had not returned yet. They spent a day looking for him, but they did not find him. Instead, they found a large warehouse near Liuliqiao that had been burned to ashes.
Jun Haoye's first thought was Qiao Liansheng. They had grown up together, so he knew his younger brother, who only knew how to play with women, very well. After being kidnapped by Qiao Liansheng for a night, Jun Haoye, who was extremely vengeful, definitely wouldn't let it go. He would definitely go find Qiao Liansheng to take revenge. Now that he had heard that Xue Lingyun had died, Jun Haoye was even more certain that Jun Hao Yan Sheng's disappearance had something to do with Qiao Liansheng. Even though he also felt that it was impossible for a dozen people to be defeated by Qiao Liansheng who had no skills at all, he could only think of this.
"A rich second generation who's always buried in women is no threat to me. I'm not interested in him at all.”Qiao Liansheng's lips curled into a disdainful smile as he shook his head with a sneer. However, he was thinking that the moment he posed a threat, he was already dead.
"It really wasn't you?" Jun Haoye also started to suspect something. He knew very well what kind of character Jun Hao Yan Sheng was. If he had really attacked Qiao Liansheng, then Qiao Liansheng definitely wouldn't be standing here alive.
Qiao Liansheng smiled and waved her left hand in front of Jun Haoye's eyes.""My ring is gone."
Jun Haoye was stunned. He finally let go of Qiao Liansheng's hand. Qiao Liansheng's little trick last time could not fool him. He knew that Qiao Liansheng had taken the ring back. However, there were still two years before the Nine Dragons Gathering. Moreover, the situation in the Nine Dragons Gathering had become chaotic because of the fake ring. Jun Haoye was not in a hurry to snatch the ring. He would be relieved as long as he knew who had the real ring.
"Who is it?"
"I don't know." Qiao Liansheng shook her head. She wanted to shift the blame to someone else, but she didn't know who the Nine Dragons Guild was. Moreover, Jun Haoye wouldn't believe it if she really shifted the blame to someone else. After all, the ring had been snatched away. Would she still be alive?
Jun Haoye snorted heavily and whispered into Qiao Liansheng's ear,""You'd better not fool me! Otherwise, even Xia Linfeng can't protect you." After saying that, he glanced at Madman Zhang, who was standing expressionlessly at the side. He turned around and waved his hand, leading the five people away.
"If Young Master Jun Hao has any news, I hope you can inform me.”Qiao Liansheng shouted at Jun Haoye's back, but a wicked smile hung on the corner of her mouth.
"You can't hide it for long." Lunatic Zhang said calmly after Jun Haoye's figure disappeared.
Qiao Lian's face instantly turned cold, and a vicious glint flashed across her eyes." Even if he doesn't come to me, I have to find a chance to deal with him."”
"Hehe, the Jun Hao family is not so easy to deal with. They have been in charge of the military region for 20 years. Er Mao Zi, you're still too young!”Madman Zhang smiled and shook his head.
"If Qiao Xianjing can do it, I, Qiao Liansheng, will not fall behind.”Qiao Liansheng said noncommittally. Twenty years ago, Qiao Xian, who was only twenty-four years old, could rely on his own capital to create the Nine Dragons Union and lead all walks of life in the country. He did not believe that he could not do it.
"Blame him?" Lunatic Zhang sighed and stared at the young man who had grown up. He had never said the word "father" since the child could remember.
Qiao Liansheng was silent. He turned around and looked at Xue Lingyun's photo on the tombstone, thinking about something.
Lunatic Zhang opened his mouth but didn't say anything. After a long time, he walked over and patted Qiao Liansheng's shoulder." Let's go see Xu Changpeng together!" It had been almost twenty years since they last met, and he was really looking forward to it.”
Qiao Lian Sheng was stunned. Suddenly, he seemed to understand something, but he didn't ask.
Madman Zhang seemed to know Old Xu's hobby better. He brought the soju from Lugou Village, which was said to be brewed by Old Huang's family. He carried it into the prison, still using Old Xu's name. The two of them did not come to the visiting room, but under the guidance of the guards, they came to the prison canteen.
"Elder Xu, someone is here to see you." The two of them arrived at the entrance of the cafeteria. The guard pushed the door open first and smiled at Xu Changpeng, who was sipping a small wine inside.
"Call them in." Old Xu nodded, and the guard tactfully pushed him out.
"Xu Bagui, we haven't seen each other for twenty years, and you're still putting on airs!”Lunatic Zhang walked in first. Before he could take a step in, his voice was heard. His tone carried a sincere smile.
The cup in Xu Changpeng's hand almost fell to the ground. He looked up at the door and his old face instantly revealed a smile that he had never seen before. He stood up excitedly and quickly walked towards the door. Without any explanation, he rushed over and hugged Lunatic Zhang tightly. Then, he punched Lunatic Zhang heavily in the chest.
"Mad Monk, you're not dead yet! Why haven't you laid in your coffin yet?”After the punch, Xu Changpeng opened his mouth and cursed. His wrinkled eyes were misty, and his old face revealed the most sincere smile.
"Haha... Don't worry, I'll definitely leave that coffin for you!”Madman Zhang laughed heartily.
Qiao Liansheng looked at the two people who were pulling each other to sit down at the table and felt the heartfelt friendship between them. However, he felt like an outsider and could only walk to the two of them and sit down.
Seeing the two of them laughing heartily, Qiao Liansheng suddenly recalled the time in Lugou Village when Qiao Xianjing and Lunatic Zhang drank together. They were also so carefree, like a pair of brothers who had gone through thick and thin together, without any grudges…
In that instant, Qiao Liansheng was deeply interested in Qiao Xianjing's past twenty years ago. Perhaps, it was really as the half-blind woman had said, a period of history where he looked down on the world and dominated the world…
