    Xiang Jieming seemed to have noticed that he had asked a strange question, and was also aware of his abnormality at this time, as well as the seemingly absent gaze behind him. He immediately armed himself with a startled expression, and looked at the boy indifferently again, “Tell me, how long have you been in Xiangcheng? When did you enter the house? How long did you hide? What else did you see during this period? What did you hear?”

    The boy didn’t respond to the repeated questioning for a while. After he came to his senses, he immediately replied honestly, “I, I have been in Xiangcheng for three years. I was captured. I, I heard someone killing someone when I got here today, so I hid. I saw everything but didn’t hear anything. It’s true.”

    Zhou Min heard what he said, and for some reason, she always felt that something was inconsistent. However, her brain was not up to par, and she couldn’t figure it out for a while.

    Xiang Jieming wanted to continue saying something, but he heard Qi Haotian’s voice coming from behind him.

    “In that case, you don’t mind if we search your body, right?” It was obviously a question, but when it came out of Qi Haotian’s mouth, there was an unquestionable determination.

    “Why are you searching me!” As soon as he heard the search, the expression on the boy’s face became even more exciting. He stood up and wanted to run away, but was directly pushed to the ground by Xiang Jieming, who had been staring at him. When he was pushed to the ground, the boy was still yelling, “Why are you searching my body! You are breaking the law!!”

    Hearing the word “criminal”, Qi Haotian couldn’t help but laugh, and Zhou Min also had a strange expression on his face. Xiang Jieming frowned as if he had heard something strange.

    Is there any law in Xiangcheng?Especially the sentence “criminal crime” combined with the fighting and carnival outside, formed a mysterious contrast, like a joke, making his previous daze waver become extremely ridiculous!The face of the boy on the ground changed from panic to despair.

    “Tie them up and start.” Qi Haotian raised his chin at Xiang Jieming, who was looking over, indicating that he could move.

    In fact, the boy’s tattered clothes were easy to see through, but Qi Haotian still emphasized the body search, which meant that he was suspicious of something. For Xiang Jieming, who had always known him well, he knew what the third young master meant with just one look.

    The boy cried desperately and struggled, but Xiang Jieming used local materials to tie his hands and feet. Then he stood up and checked the pockets of his clothes and the bottom of the bed where he had been staying before. He quickly took out a baggage from the bed. The gray baggage was dirty, but bulging, and it obviously contained a lot of things.

    “It’s all food.” Xiang Jieming frowned, and when he spread out the things in his hands and showed them to Qi Haotian, he looked at the boy’s eyes, which was a little strange.

    “Ahhhhh, give it back to me, give it back to me!!!” The boy saw the bundle in Xiang Jieming’s hand and screamed like crazy. He said, “Give it back to me, give it back to me, that’s my thing!! I didn’t take anything, I just took some food, I just took itOrder some food, we are so hungry, if we don’t eat, my sister will die!Please, please!I’ll make you a cow or a horse, it doesn’t matter.But, please, save my sister, save my sister.”

    The boy’s words, which one in the end, touched Xiang Jieming again. The hand holding the bundle suddenly stiffened, and his whole body seemed to tremble in a trance for a moment. Even Qi Haotian could feel the fluctuations in his emotions and raised his head to look at him, “Xiang Jieming.”

    “…Ah?” Xiang Jieming’s heartbeat skipped a beat at Qi Haotian’s faint call. He looked at Qi Haotian subconsciously, but was startled by Qi Haotian’s deep and calm eyes. He avoided Qi Haotian’s sight. He quickly lowered his head to conceal his emotions. After forcing himself to calm down, he replied, “Do you have any other orders from Third Young Master?”

    Qi Haotian just looked at him quietly, his eyes calm and calm, but it made Zhou Min feel that the atmosphere between that person was a bit strangely depressing, especially Xiang Jieming, who seemed to be avoiding Qi Haotian’s sight.

    The cry of the boy behind him did not weaken at all. Qi Haotian’s indifference and Zhou Min’s surprise made Xiang Jieming’s expression more and more irritable. He even suppressed Xiang Jieming’s respect and fear for Qi Haotian and turned directly to look at the boy who was huddled at the foot of the bed and kept crying. His expression was unhappy but extremely complicated, and he scolded, “Shut up.”

    After Xiang Jieming finished speaking, he realized that he had transgressed. He turned around and lowered his head first, not knowing what he was struggling with. When he raised his head again, Xiang Jieming looked at Qi Haotian with something inexplicably in his eyes. It seemed that there were countless words and complicated emotions lingering in it, and finally turned into determination and unrepentant stubbornness.

    Zhou Min looked at Xiang Jieming like this, and felt that it was hard to describe, and felt a little inconsistent, but…he couldn’t feel the violation…

    I feel a little irritable!

    “You watch him here.” After Qi Haotian finished speaking, he turned and left, and Xiang Jieming followed him out of the room.

    Zhou Min stood in the room, looking from inside the door to the two people standing in the corridor under the darkness.

    The two of them didn’t know what they were talking about, but looking at Xiang Jieming’s dancing limbs, Zhou Xing felt that Xiang Jieming seemed a little eager and excited at this time.

    In the darkness, Qi Haotian seemed to notice a vague gaze and when he looked over, he met Zhou Min’s gaze unexpectedly.

    Even though he was far away, even though he couldn’t hear Xiang Jieming’s words clearly, he didn’t know if it was an illusion. Zhou sensitively felt that Qi Haotian was in a bad mood at this time, and the eyes looking at him were a bit compelling.

    Qi Haotian’s silence, Xiang Jieming’s excitement, in the end I don’t know what the two people were talking about, but after watching the two people gradually walk into the light, Qi Haotian’s body became more cold and silent, while Xiang Jieming’s eyes showed a kind of relief and satisfaction…

    “Brother Hao.” No matter how stupid Zhou Min is, he can still notice at this time that what they just talked about does not seem to be harmonious.

    There are even serious differences.

    Xiang Jieming looked at Zhou Min, then at Qi Haotian, sighed and finally said, “That child will be with us later. Let’s go find his sister first, and then take them away together.”

    Zhou Min turned to look at Xiang Jieming in surprise. It seemed that he had not expected that Xiang Jieming had the hidden qualities of a holy father. Although he could not deliberately turn people into malicious people, he could not unscrupulously release good intentions.

    “Xiang Jieming!” This was the first time Zhou Min heard Qi Haotian call the other party’s name in such a tone, with indifference and a kind of fleeting anger that Zhou Min had no time to catch.

    Xiang Jieming looked at Qi Haotian and said unusually calmly, “I want to keep him.”

    Zhou Min looked at Xiang Jieming, and there was an uproar in the room. The boy squatting nearby looked up at him with some disbelief on his face, as if he felt that he was hallucinating and had heard wrongly.

    “But I said, no.” Qi Haotian looked at Xiang Jieming indifferently.

    The atmosphere between the two became tense for a moment, but Zhou Min still couldn’t understand why Xiang Jieming, who had always been dominated by Qi Haotian, was so stubborn about this matter and refused to give in.
