Future Crystal Crown
Chapter 41
The curtain was thick and blocked everything outside.Qiu felt that Lieutenant Colonel Horn in front of him was like a smoking active volcano, which made people shudder.
Qiu didn't dare to move, for fear of arousing Horn's unstable emotions.
It worked.The big hand covering his mouth and nose was slowly released, allowing Qiu to breathe.
Qiu took a few breaths, his eyes gradually adapted to the surrounding darkness, and he found Sigurd in front of him.Lieutenant Colonel Horn stared at him like a hawk with his golden eyes. His tall and straight aquiline nose was so close to his face that he could almost feel the sharpness of the tip of his nose.
"Say, why don't you accept the airship I gave you?" Sickert asked.Lieutenant Colonel Horn's voice was domineering and menacing.
"Ah? You sent it?" Qiu looked at Lieutenant Colonel Horn in surprise.
He always thought that the logistics company made a mistake, but he didn't expect that Lieutenant Colonel Horn gave it to him.
"Go back and sign for it obediently, don't make me angry." Sickert.Horn said condescendingly.
Qiu blinked, wondering if there was such an outrageous gift-giver?
"Sorry, I can't accept your gift." Qiu seriously refused Haun.
"Huh?" Horn's eyes flashed fiercely.
Yau noticed.
"Uh, I, I'm very grateful for your gift, but the airship is too expensive, I can't accept it." Qiu said.
"My life is worth ten thousand times more than that, isn't it enough to give you an airship?" Hown said.
"This," Qiu was stuck by this divine logic.
I thought in my heart why your calculations are so awkward, even if your life can be marked with a price, it doesn't mean you have to give me a kickback, right?Even if you want to give it, it doesn't mean I have to take your kickback, right?
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I, my father has already bought me a new airship, I don't need that much." Qiu raised his family to resist Haun, thinking that he could reject Haun by doing so.However, he underestimated Howen's arrogance too much.
"Stop giving me nonsense!" Sickert said.Haun didn't buy it at all. "You're too old to spend your family's money. Do you think you're still a child? You need a gift when you go to school, and you need a gift when you take an exam. Now that you're working, you should earn money to support yourself. It's the most shameless thing to gnaw at the old age." Behavior, you still have the nerve to say it, it's too shameful!"
"Huh?" Qiu was dumbfounded by the scolding.
His logic is completely different cognition.
His parents told him since he was a child that it was an expression of love for him that his parents spent money for him, and that it was also an expression of love for him to accept gifts from his parents.Giving and receiving gifts between family members are expressions of love, and he should accept them with joy and gratitude.Why did such a loving thing suddenly become a shameless act of gnawing on the old?
All the confusion and wandering in Qiu's eyes fell into Sickert.Horn's eagle eye.Haun strikes while the iron is hot: "Go back and return your father's airship, and no one will say you are a prodigal. Accept my gift and tell everyone that we have lived and died together, and others will say that your character is worthy of having such an airship. That's what you're supposed to do. Understand?"
"Hmm..." Qiu's mind was a little confused.
"Don't reject me. I don't value many people. Don't let me down." Haun said very touchingly.
But Qiu still didn't dare to forget Rogge's advice.
"Sorry, I can't accept your gift." Qiu insisted.
Horn took a deep breath, as if all his patience was exhausted.
"Well, it seems that I can only transfer the money directly into your account." Haun said.
"Ah, what do you mean?" Qiu was dumbfounded.
"I'll tell everyone, you saved my fleet and you demanded payment from me." Sickert.There was a gentle smile on the corner of Hao En's mouth, and his eyes were no longer fierce, but it made Qiu cold to the bone.
"Everyone at today's meeting knows that I am very grateful to you. You said that you ask me for money at this time, can I not give it to you?" Sighorn said unhurriedly. "I will tell others that you are not satisfied with the airship they gave you, so I have to give you cash."
"No, no, wait a minute, Lieutenant Colonel Horn, I didn't ask you for money, you're framing me." Qiu heard that things were going to be bad, and he hurriedly struggled.
"Hmph, of course I'm making a false accusation, but who will others believe? Your family won't give you your bank deposits, right?" Sickert said.Haun looked at Qiu intently, like a cat playing with a small white mouse in its hand.
Qiu was completely stunned.
He had never heard of such a result after saving a life.The rescued person is not only ungrateful, but also boldly threatens the rescuer. If you don't obey, you will be punished and retaliated, which makes you hard to argue.Is this still reasonable?
Qiu took a closer look at the person in front of him. Could it be that what he met was an evil spirit sealed in the devil's bottle?Open the bottle to release him and he will kill the person who rescued him... This is troublesome.
"You'd better learn to be good. My self-cultivation is not as good as Rogge. If you disobey me, you will end up miserable. I will give you a few days to think about it. I hope you will let me see a satisfactory result." Sickert.Haun showed an evil smile like a devil, and then, just like his sudden appearance, he left Qiu quickly and left.
Qiu stood where he was, and there was only one sentence in his heart over and over again: How can this be broken?
"Beep!" The communicator rang.
"Where did you go, man?" It was Fili's voice.
"Oh, here we come." Qiu quickly wiped his face and came out from behind the curtain.
Outside is another world.
The brightly lit multi-purpose hall was packed with people, chatting with each other in groups.
With his tall figure and wavy red hair, Philip is always the most eye-catching symbol in the crowd.Yau soon found him.
Feili saw Qiu come over, and said goodbye to those people gracefully.Then he led Qiu to a place with few people beside him. "I saw Sieghorn, did you see it?"
"Well, I saw it." Qiu muffled his head and replied.
"Huh?" The keen Philip immediately noticed Qiu's strangeness. "Did he speak to you privately?"
"Yes." Qiu replied honestly, pointing in the direction of the curtain. "Say a few words over there."
Fili looked over there and snorted coldly. "I knew he was coming for you."
Qiu lowered his head, not daring to tell his brother what Haun said.
"Come here, let me talk to you a few words." Feili pulled Qiu to the wall.
"The Horn family is neither our enemy nor our friend, and we don't want the relationship to become stalemate yet. He has a rather extreme personality, and sometimes he takes things for granted and doesn't care about the consequences. You can contact him, but the scale is up to you. In the end It’s better to avoid the reality and retreat in vain, and don’t leave excuses and don’t have to be patient. In short, you should put your own safety as the first priority, protect yourself first and then worry about other things.”
"Oh..." Qiu responded.
"Did you understand what I said?" Philip asked.
"Well, I understand." Qiu said.
"You don't understand at all." The shrewd Fili knew at a glance that Qiu was confused.
"..." Qiu pursed his lips, thinking to forget it, it's better not to tell his brother what Hao En said, so as not to be said again.
People can't be famous, once they become famous, accidents happen.
As soon as Qiu arrived at the office early in the morning, he heard the sound of a parking lot attendant breaking a gong in the corridor.
"I said, what does this mean? The first airship has not been signed yet, and another one has been sent. What do you, the Cook family, do?"
Almost all the rooms in the corridor stick out their heads.
"Oops." Qiu jumped up from his seat and quickly rushed to the communications officer. "I'm sorry, I'm going there now." He worked overtime all night and forgot about returning the airship.
"You're playing cool, aren't you? Take your airships and play with them one by one at the exhibition in the parking lot of our military headquarters." The administrator stared at Qiu up and down, which meant he wanted to kick him.
"Qiu, I'll go with you." Amor, who was playing gongs at ten places and nine places, arrived in time, and immediately volunteered to follow.
Three people came to the parking lot.
"Wow, what brand is this guy? It looks like a good configuration." Amor saw another new airship newly unveiled, and his eyes glowed green.
The two sales representatives, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Qiu come out and immediately greeted him.
"Mr. Cook can sign now?" The first representative handed over the contract.
"Master, please sign mine first, I guarantee that there is no problem." The second family directly blocked in front of the first family.
"Oh my God," Amor exclaimed from the side after a quick Baidu search. "Thickened steel plate, bulletproof glass, a power system comparable to that of a fighter plane, super strong security protection...Qiu, your airship is not cheaper than that one. This is the safest private airship with the best reputation this year."
"Uh, you all wait, I forgot to tell my family." Qiu turned on the communicator in a daze.
"Mom, I'm Qiu." Qiu connected to the remote video at home and told his mother as quickly as possible that he was going to return the airship.
"Why?" the mother in the video and Amor outside the video asked at the same time.
"This airship is too expensive for me," Yau replied.
"But you need it." Mom and Amor said at the same time.
Qiu turned his head and pushed Amor away, "Don't talk like my mother."
"I don't. This is all from my heart." Amor spread his hands.
Qiu walked away a few steps to prevent Amor from making trouble.
"Mom, the airship Dad bought is too high-end. I will be criticized. You have also been here at the military department. Mom, do you understand?" Qiu said.
"Oh, I see. Mom and Dad didn't think carefully." Mom said apologetically.
After successfully talking to his mother, Qiu took two contracts, and when he turned to the last page, he wrote "rejection due to customer reasons" in the description column without hesitation.
"You two have worked hard, I'm very sorry, I decided that I don't want these two airships. Please help with the return, thank you." After finishing speaking, Qiu turned around and left without looking back.
"Hey, wait a minute. Qiu, can't you think about it again? At least accept the fight at your house." Amor caught up and grabbed Qiu's sleeve.It's as anxious as losing your wallet.
"Not a single one can be accepted." Qiu pushed Amor's hand away.
"Why?" Amor was puzzled.
"Toxic." Qiu said and went back to the office.
Qiu didn't dare to move, for fear of arousing Horn's unstable emotions.
It worked.The big hand covering his mouth and nose was slowly released, allowing Qiu to breathe.
Qiu took a few breaths, his eyes gradually adapted to the surrounding darkness, and he found Sigurd in front of him.Lieutenant Colonel Horn stared at him like a hawk with his golden eyes.
