Chapter 28
Ching Li hadn’t worn any good clothes since she was in her teens.
When her mother was alive, she was given all her clothes by Hansa Ching, and then when her mother died and no one cared for her, Ching Sudi would buy her clothes, but after the age of ten she slowly distanced herself from the other person and didn’t want to ask for anything from them.
Later she wore is sold on the street veritable stall goods, spread on the ground a pile of dust, but will still be coaxed, because cheap enough, she did not leave the Qing Family Court, did not see that scene, are Gano really sister to buy her back, cleaned and brought to her to wear.
Then she followed Yue Zhi to leave, wearing the base issued training uniforms, black cotton T-shirt, black special operations pants and black leather boots.
The people in the base are all very rich, they have a lot of fancy clothes except for training, no one would like to let the training clothes on the body for one more second. But Qingli felt so good that she would go straight to the warehouse and bring back several sets, changing them every day.
Last week she was on escort duty, the suits she wore were all bought by Yue Zhi and hung in her closet, although only in black and white, but with her limited aesthetic ability, she could also see that those suits were full of design, workmanship and tailoring are superior, and are definitely worth a lot of money.
There was also the little black dress that she only wore once before when she accompanied Yue Qi to see Ockham, and after that, it had been hanging in her closet, never worn again.
Before Yue Zhi said that she looked good tonight, all those all those clothes made no difference to her, they were all work clothes that existed, so even with this large backless dress on her body, she didn’t feel embarrassed about it, it was all for work.
“You can try more different clothes in the future, it’s normal for a little girl to love beauty.” Yue Zhi looked at the time, “Go in.”
Qing Li nodded and followed him that way, “Sir, Mongoma said that you rarely would just add this kind of party before.” Because it was a charity dinner, the things that were brought out for auction were mostly private collections of celebrities or sponsors, nothing valuable compared to a specialized auction.
Yue Qi smiled, “There happens to be something interesting today, so I came to take a look.”
Qing Li followed Lin Caiyue to her designated spot in the first row, because she didn’t have a seat and it wasn’t convenient for her to be exposed in front of the camera, she could only sit on the two sides of the venue, on the small stools specially prepared for the assistants of the various celebrities.
It was probably because she really wasn’t dressed like an assistant, and there were people looking at her all the time, but she always looked at Lin Caiyue and the other party’s surroundings with her face as normal, as if she wasn’t aware of any of these sights.
She didn’t even bother to look at what Yue Zhi was sitting on, focusing on her task.
Because it was for charity purposes, everyone was only making token bids, each buying one piece to mean something, so when there was a sudden and very fierce bidding for an opinionated item, the venue was clearly in some commotion.
Qing Li did not listen carefully to the introduction of the competing items, only looked up and saw that it seemed to be a very small jewelry, with the warm luster of jade, I do not know why it will be scrambled.
In the end there were only two parties that kept bidding, and after several rounds of bidding from each side, that little thing had been bid up to a price of two hundred thousand dollars.
Qing Li sat up straight and could hear the discussion coming from the celebrity assistants on both sides.
“Even the top grade jadeite can’t be offered at this price, right, the thing is too small.”
“This side seems to be Yun Sheng Group, the one who has been following the bidding over there doesn’t know who it is.”
“Estimated that the chairman of the board of directors of Yun Sheng’s wife is again in the demon, sooner or later, Yun Sheng made no.”
“How is it possible, the chairman of the board of directors to give the whole group to the lady to play are not in the words.”
Qing Li doesn’t know about Yun Sheng Group, she only knows that after the unknown bidder offered half a million dollars at the end, Yun Sheng Group gave up.
The middle of the auction was also interspersed with cultural performances, the complete end to more than ten o’clock in the evening, Lin Caiyue more than nine o’clock symbolically spent twenty thousand dollars to auction a group director donated porcelain vase, then left.
Qing Li watched her get up from her seat, so she hurried over to escort her all the way out of the venue.
“Is there any food, I’m so hungry that I’m dizzy and hypoglycemic.” Lin Caiyue asked.
Qing Li shook her head.
Lin Caiyue was in a bad mood from exhaustion, “Forget it, hurry down, there should be sugar in the car.”
They walked quickly towards the elevator entrance, they had to walk through the plant partitions and the venue where the cold dinner party was held before, in case any guests came over this way to grab a bite to eat in the middle of the day, so the food was all still there as well, it was just that a few of the main lights were turned off, making it seem a bit dim.
“Watch your step.” Qing Li reminded, “I remember there are handmade candies on the table over there, let me go get some for you.”
Lin Caiyue gave a perfunctory “hmm”, “Hurry up, I’m so dizzy I want to vomit.”
Qing Li looked around, it was empty and quiet, and the place where the candies were kept was only five or six meters away, so she sprinted over and brought a plate over.
Lin Caiyue casually took one and stuffed it into her mouth, her breath hadn’t slowed down yet, when she was suddenly pushed by Qing Li, scaring her so much that she almost swallowed a whole candy raw.
“What are you doing …… ah!” She turned her head angrily to scold someone when she saw Qing Li raise her leg and kick a masked man dressed in black who appeared out of nowhere on his chest.
The man was kicked backward and fell to the ground, and Qing Li took the opportunity to pull her towards the auction, “Go! There are security guards over there.”
“No way.” Lin Caiyue, however, pulled her back, her expression terrified, “There’s all the media over there, if I’m caught on camera I’ll be finished!” Although she didn’t know who exactly the other party was sent by, it was definitely to take revenge on her.
The man had already regained his footing as he spoke, aggressively chasing after her, the knife in his hand flashing with a cold light.
“This way.” Qing Li pulled Lin Caiyue in the direction of the elevator entrance on the other side, passing by the table where the desserts were kept, and copied the tip of a dessert knife barely as a weapon.
“Call your security and have them come up to meet you.” Aonashi turned back around and prepared to meet the thugs.
“Can’t we just go down to the parking lot ourselves?” Lin Caiyue was too concerned about the fact that this place was too close to the auction venue, and she didn’t even dare to speak loudly.
Of course, Qing Li knew that it was faster to go straight down, but in case in the middle of the way, the elevator was stopped from the outside, and she was carrying a completely battle-less Lin Caiyue who didn’t even have a weapon, the other party would simply be catching a turtle in a jar without any effort.
“Stay.” She shoved Lin Caiyue into one of the corners of the table and the wall, turned around and raised her foot, kicking the thug’s wrist where his cleaver had come.
Then with a flying leap, she stepped on the other man’s chin and tackled him to the ground, delivering a few hard punches to his temple, knocking him straight out.
She pulled off the man’s mask, “Do you recognize it?”
Lin Caiyue came over shakily to take a look and shook her head.
Qing Li picked up the other man’s knife and casually cut a tablecloth down and tied the man to a post.
“Hey, Monogram, it’s me, Ms. Lin has been ambushed, over here in the restaurant.” She took Lin Caiyue’s cell phone and called Mongema over at the auction venue, “One man …… don’t know if there’s any accomplices, Ms. Lin asked for privacy …… hmmm.”
Menggema brought a few people from the security company over quickly, “I have already sent people to line up downstairs, I will send you down.” He handed Green Pear a very scribbled plastic bag containing Green Pear’s two guns, a saber and her cell phone.
“Uh-huh.” Aonashi took the elevator with Lin Caiyue and Mongoma, while the few remaining men took the man she had knocked unconscious away.
“What the hell was that man, can we find out, and what happens afterward?” Lin Caiyue was a bit taken aback and couldn’t stop asking after her.
Qing Li looked at her and said, “We will interrogate clearly and hand it over to the police, don’t worry, no one will know about what happened tonight, if you want to follow up with a counterattack against the mastermind behind the scenes, you can contact Yue’s security company directly.”
Lin Caiyue was so choked up that she didn’t even get nervous, “You’re really, at a time like this, you still don’t forget to pull business for Yue Zhi?!”
Qing Li asked back with an expressionless face, “Why not? Our company’s employees are highly qualified and forceful, and although the fees are expensive, they are experienced in handling incidents ……”
“Stop.” Lin Caiyue raised her hand, “I can tell just by looking at you, it’s indeed much more powerful than I thought, very handsome.”
“Uh-huh.” Qing Li nodded her head, she herself thought she was quite impressive, and after thinking about it, she added, “The other party is very unprofessional and weak.”
Perhaps because of Mongoma’s escort, or perhaps because the other party had gotten the message to retreat, they went all the way down without encountering any ambushes from fellow thugs.
Qing Li got into Lin Caiyue’s nanny car, she had to send the other party home to be considered done for the day.
In order to hide her gun belt, she asked Mungma to borrow the other’s suit to wear on her.
“That person was hired, the employer should be the ex-boyfriend who sent you the threatening letter.” Aonashi received a message from Mongoma and said, “If you need to investigate, that’s a separate fee, if not, you can just send the person to the police station now, the police side will continue to investigate, after that you need to go and explain about the threat.”
“Wait a moment first.” Lin Cai Yue bit her lip and pondered, that threatening letter was simply forged by her, it was only to scare Qing Li and make her raise her guard, where would she have thought that someone would really come over to attack her, the suspects she had, it shouldn’t be too difficult to investigate, but the police side would definitely run the risk of leaking the news.
“I’ll leave this matter to you, I’ll pay whatever it takes.”
“Thank you patronizing.” Qing Li replied the message that the mission was continuing to Mongoma.
Only then did Lin Caiyue let out a long breath of relief, after a moment of silence she suddenly asked Qing Li, “Is it possible to write your name in Chinese characters?”
“Well, Qing of cyan, Pear of pear blossom.”
“Pear of pear blossom ……,” Lin Caiyue mumbled out these words, and then mysteriously asked Qing Li, “Have you ever seen a pear blossom? Aren’t all pear flowers white, why are you called Green Pear ah, it’s actually the pear of pears right, only pears are green.”
Qing Li did not know how to answer this question, Yue Zhi said that the surname Qing is rare, let her try not to mention it, so many people do not know, she is actually surnamed Qing, after thinking about it, she chose to be silent.
“Pear …… You know that the door on the entry of Yue Zhi’s manor is decorated with colored Tiffany glass specially customized from Europe, each piece is a different flower, one of them is the pear, that’s a plant that won’t grow in Southeast Asia, and I don’t know why Yue Zhi wants to decorate it on the glass .” Lin Caiyue said.
Qing Li was stunned for a moment, she had never seen a pear flower, nor had she deliberately paid attention to the decorations on the door, “How would you know, have you ever been to the manor?”
“I haven’t been there, it’s just that someone showed it off to me.” Lin Caiyue said vaguely, as if she didn’t want to continue to delve into this topic, and asked about another matter with interest, “Are you sure of your feelings yet?”
Qing Li was sure, but she didn’t want to tell anyone.
She was originally a person who was impaired in the perception of emotions, and was also unwilling to share her own affairs with others, fundamentally resisting the idea of having a close connection with other people and talking about intimate topics.
But Lin Caiyue could see everything, “I just think that you and Yue Zhi are in love with each other, since you like him too, when are you planning to confess to Yue Zhi?”
“Confess?” Qing Li asked back, “Why should I confess?”
This time, Lin Cai Yue was confused, “Since you like each other, of course you should be together after confessing to each other, isn’t it good to enjoy a sweet relationship?”
“No need, this is my own matter, it has nothing to do with mister, as for how mister sees me, he doesn’t say it means he doesn’t need me to know.” Qing Li said calmly and even flatly silent, “I am Mr.’s subordinate, a sharp blade in his hands, I have my own mission and task, no matter what kind of relationship I have with him it won’t change this fact, so anything other than that ……”
None of it matters.
