After severing ties, the cold-blooded family regretted it

Chapter 15 The world is dangerous!

Seeing Gu Chi and the man coming over, the man couldn't hide the guilt on his face.

He smiled at the two of them and said, "Hello."

"Oh? Since you can take us to the store to pick up the goods, why do you need to collect a deposit of 2,000 yuan from us first?" Before the man next to him could speak, Gu Chi spoke first.

"Brother, this market is so big. If we sell all the goods in our store, your trip will be in vain. So I will collect the deposit first and we will order the goods first. Isn't it safer this way?" The man who spoke rubbed the tip of his nose twice with his thumb.

It was obvious that he was lying out of guilt, but Gu Chi wouldn't fall for it.

"Brother, do you believe what you said?"

"What?" Obviously, the man didn't expect that this guy would dare to challenge him. "Do you know whose territory this is? You have to take these two thousand today!"

"Why, you can't cheat so you just want to rob them, right?" Uncle Li protected the two children behind him, "Look, they are two children, so you are obviously bullying them, right?"

"Who do you think you are? I advise you to get out of the way, otherwise I will hurt you with my old arms and legs." The man looked at Uncle Li arrogantly.

Uncle Li looked him up and down and suddenly remembered this man's identity.

This guy is a notorious thug in this wholesale market. He usually asks for around three to five hundred yuan.

We are all here to do business, so we don't want our business to fail because of him, so we all turn a blind eye.

If it was before, people would have ignored him, but now, he actually started to make things difficult for the two children, especially since this child had done him a favor.

"I may be old, but I've been delivering food here for 20 years. I know at least 80% of the people here."

When he heard that the inconspicuous person in front of him was the "vegetable farmer" who delivered vegetables here, the expression on his face changed instantly.

If he really called someone over, the chances of escaping alive today would be slim.

I've been enduring this for so many years. Once this door is opened, not to mention collecting money, even if I come here, I'll have to take a detour.

"Okay, you guys are awesome, we'll see what happens next." Although he said harsh words, he ran away honestly and quickly.

"You little brat, you still want to challenge me here? When I was here, he was nowhere to be found." Uncle Li looked at the man's fleeing back, and an expected smile instantly appeared on his dark face, "Get in the car!"

While driving, Xu Xin looked at the two people sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.

"Uncle Li, you are so amazing."

"Yes, Uncle Li, if it weren't for you, we really wouldn't be able to leave here today." Gu Chi also echoed.

"Why are you being so polite to me? He's the kind of person who only bullies the weak and fears the strong. Sooner or later, I will join forces with a few merchants to deal with him." Uncle Li took out a box of cigarettes, and Gu Chi lit it with tact.

"You have just graduated from school, so you don't know much about social affairs. You will learn more slowly in the future."

However, he still had high praise for Gu Chi in his heart. Although this kid was young, the intelligence and calmness in his bones were really rare.

He doesn't cause trouble, but he's not afraid of it either. What's most rare is that he has a good heart.

For a child of his age, let alone social skills, even the most basic communication and interaction are still immature.

Just like his own kid, he stayed at home playing games all day, and usually only spoke perfunctorily to the couple. At the Lu family, the two sisters opened the door and entered the house at dawn.

At this moment, the two patriarchs of the Lu family had been waiting on the sofa for a long time.

"You two have really learned a lot. You actually dare to stay out all night." Lu Ziming's majestic voice rang out. The two sisters with dark circles under their eyes stood aside with their heads down.

"Hurry up and tell your dad what you were doing?" Zhao Rui stepped forward quickly to smooth things over. If Gu Chi had been standing here today, he would definitely have been whipped with a ruler.

"We found Gu Chi's residence." Lu Ning spoke first.

"What? That evil creature really went out to rent a house." Upon hearing Lu Ning's words, Lu Ziming stood up from the sofa in anger.

"Dad, don't be angry first, just listen to us slowly." Lu Meng wanted to comfort her father.

In this family, he has absolute say, just like an emperor who controls all world affairs.

Even though Lu Meng is in charge of the company now, she doesn't have much say when she returns home.

"Gu Chi rented a house in a village near their high school. The conditions inside were very poor..."

Before Lu Meng could finish her words, Lu Ziming interrupted her directly: "So what he wants to say is that you can suffer outside and not come back, right?"

"Dad, could you please listen to what we have to say?" Lu Ning, who had always been indifferent to other people's affairs, contradicted Lu Ziming for the first time.

This surprised everyone else.

Zhao Rui quickly grabbed Lu Ziming's arm and said, "Okay, listen to what the children say first."

"Hmph!" Lu Ziming snorted coldly and sat down on the sofa.

"Just like my dad said, Gu Chi was in the hospital for two days because of the infection from the beating from my mom, and he was obviously malnourished." Lu Meng said, tears falling again.

"Just like what Officer Qin told me, how could our Lu family's child be malnourished if it wasn't intentional?"

"Mom, I remember when Gu Chi was lost, you cried so hard that you almost fainted. But now that Gu Chi is back, how do you treat him?" She wiped her tears and said, "Of course, I have no right to say that to you."

"This is the hospital's medical record. Please take a look." Lu Ning handed the medical record book to Zhao Rui.

Lu Meng had already said what she needed to say. After all, as a child, she couldn't blame her parents for anything: "Mom and Dad, I'm very tired. I want to go upstairs and take a rest."

"Second sister..." Lu Tianci just happened to come down from the second floor and met Lu Meng face to face.

This time, Lu Meng acted even colder than before. She just nodded slightly as a response and walked sideways past Lu Tianci.

Her mind is very confused now. One is her blood brother, and the other is her brother who grew up with her.

"Mom and Dad, what's wrong with my sister?" Lu Tianci sat on the sofa suspiciously, and once again showed his "green tea" skills, "My second sister has been ignoring me recently. Did I do something wrong?"

There was a strong sense of grievance in his tone, which made Zhao Rui feel distressed. Even Lu Ziming, who was furious, felt his anger subside by a lot.
