Chu Heng looked down at Chu Qi's firm eyes, as if he saw a defender defending his beliefs, and said with a half-smile: "How are you sure she likes you too?"
"I..." Chu Qi was at a loss for words. He opened his mouth and thought for a while, but he couldn't find any proof that Ji Xuemei liked him too.
She always ignored him and basically refused to accept his kindness. She even kept a distance when speaking. All his expressions of love never received a good response.
For a moment, the little brother couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he still insisted: "I can't tell, she just likes me anyway!"
It seemed like he was talking to Chu Heng, but also seemed to be talking to himself.
Chu Heng took in his expression completely and couldn't help but remember the young, ignorant and unusually trusting himself.
Thinking about it, he also thought that the sister next door, whom he had a crush on for a long time, also liked him, until by chance, he saw the eldest sister's hands tightly grasping the sheets, and her expression of pain but joy...
The sky is falling!
Therefore, he decided to push Chu Qi to either recognize himself or to embrace the beauty. In short, he could not let him waste his great youth in vain.
"Then let's make a bet." Chu Heng muttered: "If you win, you can stay. If you lose, come back with me and inherit your family business."
"Inherit...inherit the family business? What happened to my father! What happened?" Chu Qi looked panicked.
"Second uncle, you're fine! You're in great shape, and the food tastes delicious. I'll beat you both without stopping," Chu Heng said angrily.
"Then what kind of family business do you want me to inherit?" Chu Qi breathed a sigh of relief.
"You don't understand even after I tell you." Chu Heng didn't bother to explain to him, and curled his lips and said, "Hurry up, do you want to make this bet?"
Chu Qi asked tentatively: "What will happen if I don't fight?"
"Go back with me directly, or I will tie you up and take you back." Chu Hengpi said with a smile.
"Then why are you asking me? Do I have any choice?" Chu Qi couldn't help but rolled his eyes, raised his sleeves and rubbed his bruised arms with a grin: "Tell me how to bet."
"Let's do this...so...such..." Chu Heng knelt down and muttered to him.
After hearing this, Chu Qi's eyes suddenly lit up and she grabbed his hand excitedly: "Brother, you are really my brother. I made this bet!"
As he said that, he saw his eyes rolling again and said with a smile: "But can the conditions be changed? If I win, you can take me and Ji Xuemei back."
"Don't talk about it, I'm not that capable. You don't know her identity?" Chu Heng flatly rejected him without even thinking about it.
He really can't?
Of course not.
With Chu Heng's current strength, let alone getting Ji Xuemei back, there would be no problem even if he fished her out for her parents.
But how old are Chu Qi and the others?
It’s just past twenty-eight.
This is the time when relationships are at their most unstable, so even if they are really together, most of these young lovers don't know how to manage relationships. If they are in love today, they will break up some day.
After getting the person back, the two of them still haven't come together in the end. Is it a loss or a loss?
Therefore, Chu Heng's plan is that if it really works out, he will let these two young people practice here first. When the time comes to talk about marriage, it will not be too late to do other things.
And judging from Chu Qi's current situation, it would be a good thing to let him train more here.
Didn't you see it?
After only staying there for less than a year, the brat has matured a lot. He has made great progress in dealing with people and dealing with things, as well as in the way he handles things.
"Okay, let's do what you said." Chu Qi was not disappointed after receiving Chu Heng's answer. He himself also knew how difficult this matter was. It was not that the one standing opposite him had always been omnipotent.
Chu was very capable, so he asked with the intention of giving it a try.
Now that he knows it won't work, he has given up.
"Then let's go." Chu Heng nodded when he heard the words, turned around with his hands behind his back, walked over the ruins of the collapsed courtyard wall in a few steps, and Shi Shiran left.
Chu Qi limped forward and followed behind him.
"Come out, come out!"
"It's okay, he's not dead."
"It looks like your arms and legs are fine."
The few educated youths who were standing anxiously at the door of the educated youth center breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Chu Qi was still alive and kicking.
Ji Xuemei's tense body suddenly relaxed, and a faint smile appeared on her tender and delicate face.
"I finally understand why Brother Qi can withstand the beatings of three or four people and still not fall behind!" Xiao Yang, who had witnessed how cruel Chu Heng was before, looked at Chu Qi with pity.
Xiao Yang remembered clearly that Chu Qi once told them that he had a big brother who would beat him every now and then, so his ability to resist beatings was obtained with blood and tears...
At this time, the two brothers Chu Heng came over, and the educated youths immediately ran forward.
"Are you okay, Chu Qi?" A female educated youth looked distressedly at Chu Qi, who was covered in dust and had many bruises on her arms exposed outside her rolled-up sleeves. She almost shed tears.
In fact, she has always secretly liked Chu Qi,
"Hey, it's nothing, it'll be fine in a few days." Chu Qi, who felt like his whole body was falling apart, pretended to smile relaxedly, and looked up at Ji Xuemei, who was standing still but looking at him worriedly.
But before their eyes met, the girl quickly lowered her head, stared at her toes and returned to the courtyard.
"She is really successful!" Another female educated youth looked at her angrily and whispered to Chu Qi: "I don't know what you like about her. You were beaten because of her, but she didn't even care.
Please take care of her, I see, her heart is as hard as a piece of iron, if you ask me, you are really not worth it, you might as well go back with your brother."
"I want you to take care of it!"
But Chu Qi was a stupid dog who didn't know the smell, so he glared at the girl unhappily, and then followed Chu Heng into the educated youth center.
Back at the male educated youth's residence, Lu Bin and Secretary Liu were smoking leisurely and chatting.
"What are you talking about? It's so lively?" Chu Heng stepped forward with a smile.
"Nothing, just talking about the recent consciousness of the superiors." Lu Bin glanced at Chu Qi behind him and asked: "How is it? Did you agree to go back with you?"
"Absolutely." Chu Heng shrugged, sat down and took a sip of the cooled sugar water. He turned around and waved to Xiao Zhang and Xiao Yang who were following him: "Brothers, come on."
"well."
Knowing how cruel he was, the two brothers hurriedly stepped forward.
"What's wrong? Brother Chu."
"What about that?" Chu Heng pointed to a few bags piled on the kang and said, "You two are a little tired and running errands. Go over there and get some sausages, luncheon meat, pastries, and smoked chicken. Send them to Liu.
Go to the secretary’s house, and you educated youths will come with us to have something to eat later.”
