347 I’m the Reason
“What are you two thinking? Run!”
Someone quickly reminded the siblings out of kindness. Unfortunately, the boss of Treasure Gathering Hall was already informed of the fight outside.
When he heard that his brother-in-law had been beaten up, he quickly ran over with a group of people. When they saw Song Dabao, who was lying on the ground in pain, they looked at the surrounding people angrily and questioned.
“Who did this? How dare you hit my brother-in-law? Are you courting death? Who is it? Show yourself.”
The surrounding people subconsciously took a step back and shook their heads. They were also confused.
“Boss Fu, it was these two brats who harmed Young Master Song.”
A dark-skinned man quickly squeezed into the crowd and pointed at the siblings. His eyes were filled with gloating.
However, before he could be smug, Fu Yong raised his hand and slapped him. The slap made everyone jump with a start. The dark-skinned man spun a few times before stopping. He looked at Fu Yong in confusion and said pitifully, “Boss Fu, why did you hit me? It was them who harmed Young Master Song.”
He pointed at the siblings who were hugging each other.
“Do you think I’m an idiot? Or did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? What makes you think two kids can beat a group of adults?”
Although Fu Yong said so, he didn’t intend to let the siblings off. He walked up to Song Dabao, who was helped up and looked like he was in pain. He asked with concern, “What’s wrong, Dabao? Tell me who caused you to be in pain.”
“Brother-in-law!”
Song Dabao was in so much pain that he felt like he had been beaten up in a brawl. Every time he moved, he would grimace in pain, and the cold sweat on his forehead dripped down like a stream.
Song Dabao endured the pain and wailed, “I don’t know what’s going on either. I just feel pain all over my body, as if someone is continuously hitting me. Brother-in-law, save me. It hurts. Oh, it hurts!”
Seeing that his brother-in-law was not pretending, he quickly shouted at Song Dabao’s lackeys, “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and send him to the hospital. If anything happens to Dabao, I won’t let you off.”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
After Song Dabao and the others left, Fu Yong turned his attention to the siblings and waved his hand. “Alright, since they provoked my brother-in-law, beat them up first.”
Hearing this, the little girl trembled in fear and quickly hid in her brother’s arms. Her brother was so angry that his eyes were red as he shouted, “I didn’t provoke him. He took the thing and didn’t pay me. He even hit me. You are being reasonable!”
“Reason?” Fu Yong spat at the young man mockingly. “In my territory, I’m the reason. Hit him!”
The lackeys Fu Yong brought immediately swarmed forward and punched and kicked the siblings again. The young man protected his sister tightly, and the siblings endured it silently.
However, when the kicks and punches landed on them, the siblings did not feel any pain at all. It was as if they had been hit by cotton.
What they did not know was that someone was suffering the pain in their places.
Gu Qing watched everything silently and observed Qin Xi’s expression from the corner of his eye. The only thing he couldn’t understand was that Qin Xi’s mouth actually curled into a strange smile. Was she… smiling?
“Let’s go!”
Qin Xi looked in the direction of Treasure Gathering Hall and said to Gu Qing with a smile, “Let’s go to Treasure Gathering Hall to see what’s inside!”
