The sister-in-law was wrong, please forgive her, my black-bellied brother-in-law
Chapter 72: What should I do if I want to settle the score with her?
But how could Xu Yi let him do as he wished?
Without saying a word, he stepped forward and struck Nie Guizhou on the back of the neck.
Nie Guizhou, who was secretly delighted, suddenly felt limp and lost consciousness.
The man in black was trying hard to take on Qiao Xi's attack, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Nie Guizhou being subdued by Xu Yi. His mind was instantly disturbed and his moves became chaotic.
After just one back and forth, he was also restrained by Qiao Xi.
Seeing that the man in black was about to speak, Qiao Xi didn't give him a chance and raised her hand to knock him unconscious.
Looking at the four men in black and Nie Guizhou on the ground, and thinking that her identity must not be exposed, Qiao Xi turned around and planned to leave the room first.
But as soon as she moved her feet, Xu Yi stopped her and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you so anxious? Is there something else you need to do?"
The word "sister-in-law" made Qiao Xi pause, and a look of fear appeared on her face. However, she did not turn around. Instead, she deliberately kept her voice hoarse and pretended to be calm, saying, "Young Master, I'm afraid you have recognized the wrong person. I just passed by here and saw these people acting suspiciously, so I came in to check the situation."
I didn't expect to help you by accident. Now that you are no longer in danger, it's time for me to leave."
She doesn't admit it, so Xu Yi probably can't do anything to her.
Qiao Xi thought so.
"Really?" Xu Yi looked noncommittal and stretched out his hand to block her. "Then please take off your veil so that I can remember who helped me."
Hearing this, Qiao Xi opened her eyes wide and waved her hands repeatedly: "Haha, then there is no need. Brother, I have urgent matters to deal with, so I won't delay you——"
Before Qiao Xi could finish her words, she saw Xu Yi's body shake and his hand was already close to her.
She quickly took a few steps back to avoid Xu Yi's sudden attack, but Xu Yi failed the first time and approached her again, as if he would not give up until he took off her veil.
Qiao Xi looked at the wall behind her and found that she had nowhere to retreat, so she had to reach out to stop.
"Brother, don't force me!"
Her tone sounded angry.
But Xu Yi only sneered, looked at her and said slowly: "Since sister-in-law is unwilling to admit it, Yan Zheng can only force sister-in-law to admit it."
If Qiao Xi still held onto a glimmer of hope just now, her heart was completely dead at this moment.
It seems that I can't get away from this matter today.
"Ugh!"
She sighed softly, reached out and took off the veil, revealing a fair little face.
"Haha!" She laughed dryly twice, and her voice returned to normal. "Well, brother-in-law, good evening. It's a beautiful night tonight. Haha!"
Xu Yi looked at her familiar face, but felt extremely strange.
He never understood why a person could change so much after a funeral.
"Who are you?"
Xu Yi picked up the dagger on the ground, pointed the tip of the knife at Qiao Xi, and asked coldly.
Qiao Xi looked at the dagger in his hand, then at Xu Yi, with an innocent look on her face: "Brother-in-law, I am from the Qiao family. Well, put the dagger down first, and we have something to talk about."
But Xu Yi was not willing to listen to her, and said with a hint of disdain: "Qiao family? I have never heard anyone say that Qiao family knows these things."
"Just because I haven't heard of it doesn't mean I'm not from the Qiao family. Besides, you were studying before, and you were rarely at home. And when your brother was around, I never had to do anything. It's normal for them not to know."
Josie shamelessly continued her story.
Anyway, no matter what she said now, those two people couldn't come out to expose her.
Hearing this, Xu Yi frowned and slowly put away the dagger in his hand, but he did not retreat. Instead, he took another step forward.
Looking at his actions, Qiao Xi was a little confused.
But soon, she realized what Xu Yi was going to do.
This person actually suspected that she was in disguise!
Although Qiao Xi was surprised, she could only let him grope her chin.
Xu Yi carefully felt whether there was any place where the skin under his hand was touching, but after groping for a long time, he did not find anything abnormal. Not to mention any place where the skin was not touching, there was not even a scar.
Feeling that Xu Yi had put down his hand and knowing that he had gained nothing, Qiao Xi sighed again, with some grievance in her voice: "Brother-in-law, I really don't know why I am like this."
"What else do you know?"
Xu Yi looked at her and asked slowly.
Before it was her literacy, now it’s her martial arts skills, what else is she hiding?
Qiao Xi's eyes flashed, and she thought of her system and navigation, then shook her head: "No more, right? I don't know, you know I—"
"You don't remember the past." As if knowing what she was thinking, Xu Yi directly took over her words.
After what she wanted to say was said, Qiao Xi could only laugh awkwardly and scratch her head, feeling a little at a loss.
She lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, then saw the men in black and Nie Guizhou on the ground. After a moment's thought, she changed the subject: "What should we do with these men on the ground?"
Xu Yi's gaze followed her to the ground, his brows slightly furrowed. He kicked Nie Guizhou with his foot and looked up: "Sister-in-law, please find some ropes."
Qiao Xi raised an eyebrow, probably guessing what he was going to do, and nodded and went out.
Soon, she re-entered with some ropes.
After tying up everyone, Xu Yi left a message saying "He'll be back soon" and then disappeared into the darkness.
His sudden departure made Qiao Xi confused for a moment, but she soon felt relieved, and then sat aside, staring at the unconscious people in a daze.
Xu Yi did what he said and came back in less than a quarter of an hour.
The key point is that outside the yard, Qiao Xi seemed to hear a cow mooing.
"What are you doing?"
Qiao Xi looked at Xu Yi in confusion and asked.
Xu Yi glanced at the tied-up people and found that they had not woken up. Then he said slowly: "I don't know where Nie Guizhou came from. But he can come here so late, so I think he and his father should be hiding nearby.
He has been out with his men for such a long time and has not returned. If he stays for some time longer, his father will definitely send someone to look for him.
If we find them in this state, both of us will be in danger.
So I just borrowed an oxcart and sent them to Lingxiao City at night without anyone noticing. This way we can avoid a lot of trouble, and maybe the guy above can catch a big fish with this."
After hearing this, Qiao Xi couldn't help but give Xu Yi a thumbs up.
It was indeed a thorough consideration. But could an ox cart hold the five of them plus a living person?
Qiao Xi thought so and asked the same question.
Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, Xu Yi just glanced at her and nodded as a response.
Next, Xu Yi didn't let Qiao Xi do anything and just carried the unmanned person onto the ox cart.
Looking at the "human pyramid" on the ox cart, Qiao Xi was amazed again and praised Xu Yi for his ability.
However, judging from Xu Yi's expression, he didn't seem to want her to follow.
Nie Guizhou came from the back mountain, and his father Nie Shufeng must know about it.
What if Nie Guizhou wasn't found and he blamed her for staying at home?
