Chapter Thirty-Five: The Eldest Sister is Rescued

  Xuanyuan didn't agree to meet me, I begged him several times, we agreed that he would come to the small shop outside my house to pick me up and go to Jiulong KTV together. I made an excuse to tell my brother that I had something to do at Xiaoxiao's house and went out. Standing at the door of the small shop, looking left and right, but no one was there, only a cool black Mercedes-Benz parked by the road. I thought this shouldn't be it, because from the time I finished calling him at home to walking out, it was only about 10 minutes.

  I waited for another five minutes, but still didn't see any cars coming. I told myself to be patient, after all, it was me asking someone for a favor, and they were already helping me out. Just as I was getting impatient and looking around, I saw that the car hadn't left yet, and more importantly, its window was slowly rolling down. And wasn't the person sitting there Xuan Yuan Ruo? I wouldn't mistake him for anyone else, especially since my current strength is 5.1.

  I stormed over to the window of the car and said, "Xuanyuan Ruo, what's wrong with you? Do I look like a headless fly buzzing around for fun? You clearly arrived early, why didn't you call me? Don't you know that things are urgent?..."

  A voice came from the side: "Hehe, it's a little chili pepper after all. Your taste is really special, brother-in-law. You're still so confident when asking for help, you really have personality."

  I turned my head and took a look, this person looked somewhat familiar. After thinking for a moment, wasn't this Ding Beicheng, Xuan Yuan's older cousin? Several years had passed, people change quite a bit, cars also change a lot, now they're driving Mercedes-Benz too. It's not like the previous generation in 2012 when Mercedes-Benz were still rare and I couldn't afford one either. If he wasn't handsome enough, I would have taken a few more glances back then, now I reckon he wouldn't even recognize me.

  Ding Bei Cheng smiled and said: "Little chili pepper, don't stare at me, my younger brother will be unhappy. If he's unhappy, it's a big deal. Don't blame my younger brother, I told him to take a look at you and see when you can find our person. This isn't your business, but I have to intervene. He didn't stop me because finding people and doing things can't make the person doing things unhappy, or else the efficiency will be greatly discounted..."

  "Alright, brother-in-law, don't say anything else. Nannan, I'll open the car door for you to get in. We're leaving now. Nothing's going to happen, brother-in-law has already made a phone call."

  "Hey, little brother, no wonder you're sitting in the back today and not up front. You used to say that the view is better from the front, but I guess it's because of Little Chili Pepper, haha, the drunkard's intention is not in the wine."

  "Focus on driving well, otherwise your secret... Now I find that the scenery behind is even better."

  "Alright, alright, I won't say anything more, is that okay?"

  Considering that Ding Bei just teased me, I took the opportunity to say: "Yes, sitting in the front passenger seat is really not safe. Brother Ding, you're not driving seriously, what if someone is a road killer? Wouldn't Xuan Yuan lose big time then? And why didn't Brother Ding let Uncle Driver drive?"

  "If I let Driver Old Wang drive, he'll go back and spread the news everywhere, then my secret won't be safe. Luckily, my younger brother has something on, so my old man at home finally lets me out. Finding someone to follow me isn't obviously being monitored? I'm not that stupid. What's a road killer anyway?"

  "Are you kidding me? You're not stupid, but aren't you a road killer? Driving on the road like a madman, isn't that what they call a killer?" "What? I'm a road killer? Ask my nephew, I've been driving for years and I'm very safe. Anyway, I'll drive, don't worry." "Ding Ge said this is exactly why we can't be at ease, Xuan Yuan, from now on you mustn't sit in the front seat again, it's like Wang Po selling melons." I glanced at Xuan Yuan and he said: "Self-praise stinks."

  "Hehe, I think you're too concerned about my younger cousin. My younger cousin also calls you Nan Nan, how intimate! I don't need to be called Brother Ding anymore, it doesn't sound right, just call me Cousin Brother from now on."

  Xuan Yuan Ruo listened with a faint smile and nodded, just as the car suddenly jolted, I happened to lean against Xuan Yuan Ruo's chest. As soon as I realized it, I hurriedly sat up straight, feeling both angry and embarrassed. "You're taking advantage of me," I said. "I'm not talking to you guys anymore. How much longer until we arrive? Someone's driving skills are nothing special." "We're almost there, what's the rush?"

  As soon as Ding Bei Cheng stopped the car, a parking attendant came forward. The three of us walked towards the entrance. Although it was daytime, this 9 Dragons KTV was still very lively. The lights were dazzling, but not too noisy, the music was energetic, the red wine was enchanting, and the warm service staff made everything so enticing. It really was a place where "the lamp is red and the cup is green". The three of us formed a rather unusual landscape, as Xuan Yuan and I looked very young, and Ding Bei Cheng also appeared to be a young man not much older than us. As we walked through the lobby, many people couldn't help but stare at us in surprise.

  As they walked to the end, it was a very large and luxurious private room. A seductive and charming woman's voice came: "Ding Shao, I've been waiting for you for a long time." As they approached, it was indeed a woman dressed in a cold and sexy manner, probably around thirty years old. Ding Bei Cheng had an attitude of playing with the world, saying: "Hong Jie, long time no see. Our family's old man is strict, today I finally managed to sneak out for some fresh air. You're still so beautiful and charming. Little brother, let me introduce you, this is Hong Jie."

  "Hehe, still so eloquent, Ding. Your younger brother and this little girl don't look very old, hehe, you can call me Auntie now." "Hong Jie doesn't look old at all, she's in her prime. If you didn't say it, who would be able to tell your age?"

  I shouted "Hong Jie" with Xuan Yuan Ruo, Hong Jie said: "Hmm, Ding Shao, we won't beat around the bush, what's your business here today?"

  "Actually, there's nothing much going on, I just wanted to ask Hong Jie to find someone for me, and she'll definitely be able to find the right person." "Oh, is that so? Then let's hear what Ding has to say."

  "She's just a little girl's elder sister, sold to you by her black-hearted boyfriend. Her name is Nan Qingqing, only 17 years old, arrived last night."

  "Oh, so it's this thing. Yesterday there seemed to be such a thing, but today early in the morning it was already sent to C city, now I guess it's on the way."

  As soon as I heard this, I became anxious and said: "Hong Jie, where did you send my cousin? If you release her, we can pay several times the money."

  "Haha, my sister Hong is not someone who lacks that little bit of money. In doing business, the most taboo thing is to not keep one's word. Originally, we had already agreed to send fifty people, but suddenly there was a shortage of one person. Fortunately, yesterday someone made up for it."

  I wanted to say more, but Xuan Yuan stopped me. Ding Bei Cheng smiled and said: "Hong Jie, we are straightforward people who don't speak in riddles. What do you want us to do before you let them go?"

  "Hehe, still straightforward and refreshing. It's just that this month, Golden Dragon's project in North Mountain needs our help." "With Golden Dragon's strength, even if we don't help, you can still complete the project in North Mountain. Since you think so highly of our family, I'll bring this up to my old man. So, Hong Jie can find someone now, right?"

  "It's good that Ting reminded me, haha, people get older and their memory isn't what it used to be. Just now I told Ah Ting to bring those girls over after 10 o'clock, I've already asked her to lead the way, you guys just wait a bit, have some drinks, sing some songs."

  As she spoke, Hong Jie swirled the red wine in her cup, her eyes seeming to be lost in thought, but more so, a kind of enchantment. She nodded at Ding Bei Cheng and slowly started drinking the wine. Ding Bei Cheng naturally also picked up his glass and took a sip, saying: "French Lafite '78, not bad."

  "Also want Ding Shao to understand wine like this, little brother and sister want to have some too."

  I don't like this woman at all, and I don't want to bother with her. Xuan Yuan calmly said, "She's still young, can't drink. If I drank, she would probably make a public announcement."

  Hong Jie looked at me and then at Xuan Yuan Yi, saying: "Hehe, being young is really great."

  I grumbled in my heart, who's smaller than me? I'm older than you, aren't I? If it weren't for this woman affecting my mood, how could I give up such a great opportunity? This is 78-year-old red wine, and it's free. It's a waste if I don't drink it.

  Before long, my elder sister was brought over. I saw that she looked frightened and stunned, so I quickly ran up to her and said, "Sister, it's me, Xiaoxiao. Don't be afraid, you're safe now."

  My elder sister saw me and burst into tears, whispering: "I'm so scared, I'm so scared, finally someone has come to save me." "En en, I've come to save you, we'll be home soon."

  I glanced at Xuan Yuan, and Xuan Yuan said: "Brother-in-law, Hong Jie, since people have come, it seems that they are frightened, so we will go back." Ding Bei Cheng and Hong Jie bid farewell, and I supported my sister out.

  After getting on the car, I comforted my sister, and she fell asleep soon. I guess she didn't sleep all night because of fear, now she's tired, a string loosened. I said to Xuan Yuan, "Xuan Yuan, thank you so much for your help this time, but will that woman's request be too troublesome for your family? Is her appetite too big? The North Mountain project should be quite large, right?"

  Xuanyuan said solemnly, "Don't worry about it, there are some things that your brother can handle. If you have something on your mind and think of looking for me, that's great, do it like this from now on, got it?"

  Ding Beicheng smiled and said, "Little chili pepper, don't worry, the Ding family never thought of taking a share of the North Mountain's business. It was Hong Jie who overthought it. The people on that side are all eyeing this big fat meat, and internal strife is inevitable."

  "That's great, thank you so much, Brother Ding, today. Another day, my family will invite you to Yiyuan Hotel, and you must come. Ha ha, no problem, but please don't call my old man at home, otherwise I won't be able to have fun. And Little Chili Pepper, your cousin looks tall and white, a lively girl, how did she end up with such a rascal boyfriend and got cheated? You should let her open her eyes next time and not get cheated again. I guess this girl's brain doesn't work well."

  Older sister suddenly woke up and said: "That whoever, you're the one with a bad brain. I was trying to rebel against my dad and mom. As for that bastard, I wasn't cheated, I just didn't have enough strength and was tied up by him. Look at how you were flirting with Red Sister earlier, it's obvious you're not a good person. Just like Xiaoxiao said, men are unreliable, pigs will climb trees."

  I'm so fed up, elder sister, do you want to sell me off or not? "Little chili pepper, haha, you really have talent, this sentence is also spoken by you, are you misunderstanding men or did our family's younger male cousin offend you, your words are astonishing."

  I took a look at Xuan Yuan, his face turned black. I poked my older sister and said: "No, this isn't something I just made up, at that time my older sister had signs of having an affair, I was scaring her. Hehe, you guys can just ignore it."

  I can only smile foolishly, while my older sister is happily arguing with Ding Bei Cheng. Ding Bei Cheng is indeed a smooth talker, I really don't know which woman will bring him down in the future.
