Chapter 468 Suspicious Old Man
The black-clad men were caught off guard by Qi Tongwei's sudden attack. They did not expect Qi Tongwei to help them. Under Qi Tongwei's fierce attack, the black-clad men suffered a heavy price. Some of them had broken ribs, some were beaten to the point of bleeding from the mouth and nose, and fell to the ground groaning in pain.
Qi Tongwei stood in the center of the battlefield like a god of war, his eyes full of majesty and anger. He looked at the black-clad men who fell to the ground and said coldly: "Whoever dares to touch them will be an enemy of me, Qi Tongwei!" After that, he turned and looked at Cuicui and Zhang Long.
Cuicui and Zhang Long were still in shock. They never expected Qi Tongwei to come to their rescue at this time. Qi Tongwei walked up to them and said, "It's too dangerous here. Let's leave quickly."
However, Cuicui was full of doubts. She looked at Qi Tongwei and questioned, "Qi Tongwei, did you find these men in black? You are just acting, pretending to be a hero to save the beauty, just to prevent us from finding Gao Xiaoqin."
When Qi Tongwei heard this, he immediately became angry and embarrassed. His face turned very ugly, and he said angrily: "I finally saved you, and you actually slandered me like this! I, Qi Tongwei, am upright and honest, how could I do such a thing? You are really a bunch of ungrateful people!"
Zhang Long quickly grabbed Cuicui and said, "Cuicui, don't talk nonsense. Qi Tongwei did save us, and we should be grateful to him."
Cuicui still insisted, "But, this is all too coincidental, isn't it? He stopped us from looking for Gao Xiaoqin before, and now he suddenly appears to save us. This makes us have to be suspicious."
Qi Tongwei was so angry that he was shaking all over. "Believe it or not! I, Qi Tongwei, have a clear conscience. If it weren't for the fact that you are still somewhat useful, I wouldn't care whether you live or die."
After saying that, Qi Tongwei turned around and was about to leave. Zhang Long hurried forward to stop him and said, "Qi Tongwei, don't be angry. Cuicui was also impulsive, she didn't mean it. We are really in danger now and need your help."
Qi Tongwei stopped, looked at Zhang Long, and said, "I can help you, but you must promise me that you will not look for Gao Xiaoqin anymore."
Cuicui and Zhang Long looked at each other, their hearts full of contradictions. They knew that if they did not agree to Qi Tongwei, they might be in danger again. However, they could not give up the task of finding Gao Xiaoqin.
Cuicui gritted her teeth and said, "Qi Tongwei, we can't promise you. Gao Xiaoqin is very important to us, we must find her."
Qi Tongwei glared at Cuicui, "You are so stubborn! If that's the case, then just let yourselves perish!"
After saying that, Qi Tongwei turned and left again. Cuicui and Zhang Long looked at his back, their hearts filled with helplessness and worry. They knew that they were in trouble again.
Zhang Long said, "Cuicui, what should we do now? Qi Tongwei is gone, and we have no way to deal with those men in black."
Cuicui pondered for a moment and said, "We can't give up looking for Gao Xiaoqin. Although Qi Tongwei won't help us, we still have other ways."
Zhang Long asked: "What method?"
Cui Cui said: "We can seek help from others. Maybe there are people in this town who are willing to help us."
Zhang Long nodded, "Okay, let's go look for it."
They began to look around the town for people who were willing to help them. However, they didn't know that Qi Tongwei hadn't really left. He was secretly observing their every move and thinking about the next plan in his heart.
Qi Tongwei actually didn't want to hurt Cuicui and Zhang Long, he just didn't want them to find Gao Xiaoqin. He knew that Gao Xiaoqin's existence was a huge threat to him. If Gao Xiaoqin was found by them, it might reveal some of his secrets.
However, Qi Tongwei also understood that Cuicui and Zhang Long would not give up easily. They would continue to look for Gao Xiaoqin until they found her. Qi Tongwei decided to take action again to stop them.
While Cuicui and Zhang Long were looking for help, Qi Tongwei sent another group of men in black to follow them secretly. As long as they showed any signs of finding Gao Xiaoqin, the men in black would immediately take action to stop them.
Cuicui and Zhang Long didn't know they were being followed, and they continued to ask around in the town about Gao Xiaoqin's whereabouts. They met many people, but most of them shook their heads and said they didn't know.
Just when they felt desperate, a mysterious old man appeared in front of them. The old man looked at them and said, "Are you looking for Gao Xiaoqin?"
Cuicui and Zhang Long nodded quickly, "Yes, Grandpa, do you know where she is?"
The old man smiled and said, "I know where she is. But you must agree to one condition of mine."
Cuicui and Zhang Long asked anxiously, "What are the conditions?"
The old man said: "You must give up looking for Gao Xiaoqin and never mention her name again."
Cuicui and Zhang Long fell into deep thought. They knew that if they agreed to the old man's conditions, they would not be able to complete the task. However, if they did not agree, they might never find Gao Xiaoqin.
Finally, Cuicui gritted her teeth and said, "Grandpa, we can't agree to your conditions. Gao Xiaoqin is very important to us, we must find her."
The old man sighed and said, "Since you are so persistent, I can't help you. You can do whatever you want."
After saying that, the old man turned and left. Cuicui and Zhang Long looked at the old man's back, their hearts filled with disappointment. They didn't know what to do.
After the old man left, Zhang Long was filled with doubts. He looked at Cuicui and said, "Cuicui, I think this old man is suspicious. Why did he stop us from finding Gao Xiaoqin? And his request is too strange. It feels like someone deliberately arranged for him to come."
Cuicui frowned, thinking about Zhang Long's words. "Now that you mention it, it's a bit strange. Could it be that Qi Tongwei really asked him to come? But why would Qi Tongwei do this?"
Zhang Long analyzed: "I suspect there is some hidden secret between Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin. You see, he has been trying to stop us from looking for Gao Xiaoqin, and now this old man has appeared again and put forward such a strange condition. This is definitely not a coincidence."
Cui Cui nodded, "That makes sense. So what secrets do you think there are between them?"
Zhang Long thought for a moment and said, "You just said that Gao Xiaoqin had pursued Qi Tongwei before, and they were rivals in love and had emotional disputes. If that's the case, maybe Qi Tongwei doesn't want Gao Xiaoqin to appear now because he is afraid that his past will be exposed."
