My ex-boyfriend is looking forward to my bankruptcy

Chapter 115 Tie with a rope and drag away

Since Shi Jun came to Qinhai, Xi Mozhou stayed in the study upstairs after saying hello to create an opportunity for him and Qu Tao to chat alone.

Now that Pei Zechen went up and called him down, he had the opportunity to say a few words to Shi Jun and express his doubts.

"Mu Jingyan knows you're here, right?"

"Ah."

"He didn't say anything?"

"No."

After Shi Jun finished answering, he thought of what Mu Jingyan had said before and added another sentence.

"He said that what happened before was in the past. You caused his company to suffer a lot of losses. It was his fault first. Now that the matter is even, he won't bear any grudges and won't say anything more."

"Oh..."

Was it really cool to be so straightforward? Was he really just overthinking the car accident?

Xi Mozhou thought about it and looked at Pei Zechen, who understood his look and shook his head at him.

Pei Zechen followed Mu Jingyan's lead and investigated for a while, but found nothing.

On the night Xi Mozhou had a car accident, Mu Jingyan had been with Shi Jun. No suspicious numbers were found in the call records that were checked by someone.

Considering that Shi Jun was still taking anti-inflammatory drugs, after several people sat down around the dining table, Qu Tao arranged people to sit next to him and helped him fill the cups on the table with juice.

"I can't recognize you as my brother for nothing. Come over often when you have time. I'll ask the kitchen to prepare your favorite dishes."

"Ah."

"If you need anything, just give me a call."

Han Feng became jealous when he saw that Qu Tao really doted on Shi Jun, and looked at him with resentment.

"Brother Taozi, what about me? I'm also your half-brother. You shouldn't be too partial. I saw a watch a few days ago. Can you buy it for me?"

"Don't you have a husband? Go make some mud and make some yourself."

"Brother Tao, I hate you."

Han Feng looked at Qu Tao with an expression as if he was looking at a heartless man. He wiped the corners of his eyes in a formal manner and felt sorry for himself.

"Alas... People only see the smiles of newcomers, but not the tears of old ones. How could I make friends with such a heartless person like you?"

Shi Jun laughed out loud because of his amusement. Qu Tao took a look and applauded Han Feng in support.

"My Junjun is laughing. Good performance. Keep going... I'll pay you later."

"Brother...they ganged up on me."

Han Feng didn't get what he wanted, so he turned to Pei Zechen and spoke in a coquettish voice, but was again criticized by Qu Tao.

"What did I just say? You only have your husband in your eyes, and you're still trying to find warmth with me. Do you think I'm being taken advantage of?"

Han Feng was dissatisfied and pointed his eyes at Shi Jun: "He also has a husband, so you are still partial to him."

"He's my brother, so of course I have to be partial to him."

Because of his original family background, Shi Jun is actually both inferior and sensitive. In his eyes, Qu Tao and others have always been superior to him.

Even though Qu Tao recognized him as his younger brother, his inferiority complex and sensitivity made him not dare to have too high expectations for this relationship.

Before coming here, he had just been feeling depressed for a long time and wanted to get some fresh air, but at this moment, Qu Tao's protection of him made him feel the long-lost warmth.

It seems... they are really brothers!

People who are both inferior and sensitive are always like this. They are easily moved by a small thing, and can also be easily shattered by a fallen leaf.

During the meal, Mu Jingyan sent him several messages, just asking him when the meal would end and when he would be home.

Shi Jun replied to the same question once, but was too lazy to reply again. When the phone rang, he felt a little annoyed.

"What? I'm heading back. I'll call you."

"Sister-in-law, it's me...Qin Bo."

"Oh...", Shi Jun responded, waiting for him to continue.

"Brother Mu is drunk, can you come over here?"

"He's drunk. It's no use for me to go over there. Just find a driver to take him home."

Shi Jun subconsciously refused, and the voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little embarrassed.

"But Brother Mu refused to leave until he saw you."

"What a hassle, keeping him waiting."

The dinner was coming to an end and Shi Jun hadn't picked up his chopsticks for a while. Qu Tao heard his conversation and looked at him after he hung up the phone.

"Got to go?"

"Well, that old guy is drunk. I'll go over and take a look."

"Puff..." Han Feng couldn't help laughing and looked at Qu Tao, "You two are indeed brothers. You both like to call your husbands 'old things'."

Xi Mozhou's face darkened uncomfortably. Qu Tao glared at him, held Shi Jun's arm, and stopped at the entrance.

He took out a thick red envelope from the drawer of the shoe cabinet and stuffed it into Shi Jun's hand.

"A special red envelope for your engagement."

"But didn't you give it to me yesterday?"

"That's different. I'm not sure if you can get the gift money from yesterday. This is extra pocket money I gave you."

"It's already in my hands."

After the guests left the hotel, Mu's father handed him the bill and the gifts collected at the engagement party yesterday.

When Qu Tao heard his words, he said with a teasing look: "It seems that the Mu family treats you well, but this is a red envelope given by my mother's family, you can't refuse it."

"Oh...thank you, brother."

"Okay, go see what that old guy is up to. If you can't deal with him, call me and I'll help you."

"No, I can cure him."

If his wrist hadn't been healed properly, Mu Jingyan wouldn't have succeeded last night.

It was magnificent and golden. Mu Jingyan waited for a while, then anxiously opened his phone to check the time on the call record.

It's been twenty minutes, it should be here by now.

Qin Bo looked at him, snatched his phone away, and pushed him back down on the sofa with disdain.

"If you want to pretend to be drunk, then act like one. I made the call for you. Are you deliberately trying to get your sister-in-law to put the blame on me?"

"It's been twenty minutes. I'm worried about his safety on the road."

"You know it's been twenty minutes? Ever since we hung up, you've been checking every few minutes. You've been driving me crazy."

As Ruan Hengnian spoke, he took the wine glass from the tea table and carefully poured a little wine into his collar.

"It would be great if you could just speak to your sister-in-law and tell her directly, but you had to do this."

"What do you know? What wife wouldn't text or call her husband when he's out?"

"You just saw it. Did he send me a text message or call me?"

Qin Bo looked at his aggrieved expression, steadied his eyes, and stared at him.

"Brother Mu, are you really into this? Are you serious about your sister-in-law?"

"Nonsense, why would I get engaged to him otherwise?"

In front of his brothers, Mu Jingyan no longer deliberately concealed it, but every time the look in Shi Jun's eyes when he said he didn't like him appeared in his mind, he felt nauseous.

That look was so genuine, it seemed like the little guy really didn't like him!

The door was ajar, and there were footsteps getting closer and closer. Mu Jingyan quickly lay down and closed his eyes.

Qin Bo and Ruan Hengnian looked at each other, and cooperated very well to leave a space for Shi Jun next to Mu Jingyan.

"Where's he? How much did he drink? He got drunk so quickly?"

"Sister-in-law, you're finally here." Qin Bo stood up from the sofa when he saw Shi Jun coming in. Seeing the hemp rope dangling in his hand, he looked puzzled. "Sister-in-law, why did you bring the rope with you?"

"Isn't he drunk? I can't carry him on my back, and I can't tie him up with a rope and drag him along?"
