Chapter 114 Melee
Bai Qi: “Hello.”

Cui Jian looked up and saw Bai Qi throwing his coat to Cui Jian like an arrow. Cui Jian grabbed it and looked at Bai Qi with a question mark for two seconds. Then he suddenly realized and stepped forward to cover Xue Bing with it. Xue Bing opened his eyes and looked at Cui Jian: "Thank you."

Cui Jian pointed upwards: "His clothes." Apart from the time he was in love with Li Qin when he lost his memory, Cui Jian had no love history.

Xue Bing didn't care. She pulled her clothes on, wiped away her tears with her hands, sat and looked at the portrait of her own mother, and fell into her own world. Cui Jian stepped back and continued to place the offerings. Can these things be recycled? Who will eat them after recycling? Do we have to move them again?

If I don't recycle them, I can consider becoming a cemetery manager in the future. Look at these foods, deep-sea fish, caviar, black pork, wagyu beef, glutinous rice chicken, barbecued pork buns... and cherries that look super expensive.

Cui Jian's mind started to run wild again. Even so, he discovered a common non-venomous snake approaching Xue Bing. He took two steps forward, teased it with his right hand, and grabbed the snake's head with his left hand, and the snake then wrapped itself around Cui Jian's arm.

Cui Jian took out his phone and typed one-handedly to search: Can wild snakes be eaten in South Korea? The answer is that they are protected, but limited to their habitat.

Cui Jian searched again: I caught a snake while worshiping my ancestors in Korea. Is there any custom that requires me to release it?

A light laugh came from his ear, and Cui Jian turned around to see Xue Bing's smiling face. His heart skipped a beat, and he almost let go. Cui Jian was originally beside Xue Bing, and when she stood up and turned her head, she saw what Cui Jian was searching for.

"Let it go." Xue Bing saw Cui Jian's ears turn red and felt a little suspicious. In the eyes of Ye Rannuo and the short-haired girl, Cui Jian was the kind of person who would glance past any naked woman without any concern.

"Yeah." Cui Jian walked to the path and threw the snake to the other side. When he came back, Xue Bing was unscrewing the bottle cap. Cui Jian stretched out his clean hand, and Xue Bing cooperated to grab the bottle. Cui Jian unscrewed the sake bottle, walked to the side, picked up the mineral water on the ground and washed the place where the snake touched. He himself didn't care, but he knew that others might not care.

Xue Bing poured sake into three cups and placed them in front of the tombstone, then spread flowers in front of the tombstone, took off his shoes, knelt quietly on the flowers, and spoke to the portrait. Cui Jian tactfully went to the side road to wait.

After clearing the weeds, Bai Qi came down from the cemetery and answered the phone: "Hello, um, how long? OK." While talking on the phone, he put away Duanmu's knife. The three of them went to the path together to wait, leaving Xue Bing some private space.

Bai Qi said, "Don't take the things for a while, someone will come to clean them up. Also, this project will be extended for two days."

Duanmu: "The project says there may be a delay of one day."

Bai Qi replied: "We need to move the grave."

Duanmu was puzzled: "Why didn't you prepare before?"

Bai Qi replied: "Ms. Xue originally didn't want to disturb her mother, but someone else didn't think so."

Duanmu asked, "Is anyone coming?"

Bai Qi nodded: "There are already cars at the foot of the mountain."

Cui Jian asked: "Is it necessary for the maternal relatives to make a fuss?" The mother here refers to the stepmother. Cui Jian meant that Xue Bing had completely controlled the wealth, and unless Xue Bing had no opinion, the maternal relatives would not be able to get the money.

Bai Qi replied: "To put it simply, Miss Xue has the legal documents for inheritance, but some of the money is hidden very deeply. Only two accounts have been found over the years. Someone among the relatives knows which banks in which countries Miss Xue's stepmother has placed the funds. Even if they are found, the procedures are very complicated, and it may not be written in Miss Xue's stepmother's name."

Cui Jian understood: "Although the relatives know where the money is, they have no right to use it. Ms. Xue has the right to use it, but she doesn't know where the money is. The win-win way is to negotiate, the relatives explain the location of the money, and Ms. Xue applies for inheritance with inheritance legal documents."

Duanmu said: "Not only is the negotiation process troublesome, but the process of withdrawing money is also troublesome. It sounds like this money is the hidden funds of Miss Xue's stepmother. It seems that Miss Xue's stepmother may be engaged in transnational illegal activities."

Bai Qi said: "A stepmother is also a mother, Mr. Duanmu, you are really unprofessional to say that about your employer's stepmother."

Duanmu smiled and said nothing.

Cui Jian didn't understand. With the information Xue Bing had, it should be easy to negotiate. Each sum of money should correspond to each relative. If he gave the relative 10%, they might agree. It would also save him the cost and trouble of setting up a global network for investigation. At the same time, he could also differentiate the maternal relatives.

Why didn't Xue Bing talk to them? Cui Jian understood that Xue Bing didn't care how much money he could get, but only how much money his relatives couldn't get. This was confirmed by the first worship point. In less than 10 minutes, Xue Bing had worshipped 6 relatives and only sent a bouquet of flowers to each grave.

When he arrived at his mother's place, he was covered with stickers and flowers, and also brought more than a dozen food boxes with more than forty kinds of offerings in them.

Resentment? Probably not, otherwise Xue Bing would not have gone to the first worship site. It can only be said that Xue Bing has feelings for the Xue family, but not much.

Cui Jian knew that he would not think about this question normally, and the reason he thought about it was because he liked Xue Bing. Unlike eight years ago, he did not find excuses to avoid the question, but admitted that he had a crush on Xue Bing.

The killer is not too cold because he has never faced his inner self. Only the killer who dares to face his inner self is a cold-blooded killer.

……

Half an hour later, Xue Bing finished the worship. Bai Qi went up to Xue Bing, held her wrist and led her to the path. He whispered a few words in Xue Bing's ear and Xue Bing nodded.

The four of them walked to the edge of the hillside and looked down. There were more than a dozen cars coming down. The people ranged from twenty to fifty or sixty years old. More than forty people filled the entire path. When they saw Xue Bing appear on the top of the hill, the people below immediately started shouting. Xue Bing just looked down quietly without any response. Seeing this, the people below began to knock on the commercial vehicles and vans.

Duanmu and Cui Jian stood aside, Duanmu said: "These people are really stupid, what's the point of having so many people here? We can solve it by calling the police, or do they dare to line up and come up?"

Cui Jian said: "They had time to reach the top of the slope, but because the number of people was not complete, and they also knew that the employer had people around him, they didn't want to be the first to come."

Duanmu said: "Calling the police is the best way."

Cui Jian: “Of course.”

Duanmu: "Looking for someone to teach them a lesson?"

Cui Jian: "You can't come up with this idea unless you've been kicked in the head by a donkey. We can easily deal with them, so why teach them a lesson? This group of people only dare to stay here, and they don't dare to destroy the tomb, let alone go to Hancheng to cause trouble. They gathered so many people because they don't have the courage. The leader must be someone who knows the whereabouts of the money. They want money, so it's impossible for them to really hurt the employer. They just want to force the employer to give in."

Duanmu looked at Cui Jian in surprise: "You seem to be using your brain quite well today."

Cui Jian: “Really?”

Duanmu: "You never think deeply about things when you encounter them."

Before Cui Jian could reply, three minibuses appeared from one end of the highway and stopped at the intersection of the small road. As the doors opened, a group of men wearing masks and black hoodies got off the minibuses, each holding a rubber stick. The scene immediately fell silent.

A man with a slicked-back hair stood in front and waved a stick: "Beat them." More than 30 men rushed into the path and beat anyone they saw. There was a cry of grief at the scene. Even if some people fled to the fields beside the path, the men in black did not let them go, and chased them in the muddy fields. Duanmu and Cui Jian looked at Bai Qi at the same time. Sure enough, someone's head had been kicked by a donkey.

Xue Bing couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Bai Qi's face turning red and white, and explained for Bai Qi: "He wanted to teach these people a lesson so that they wouldn't be obstructed when moving the graves tomorrow."

Cui Jian said seriously: "This is against the law."

Bai Qi looked Cui Jian up and down and asked, "Have you never committed a crime?"

Cui Jian thought for a while: "There are still illegal parking and so on."

Bai Qi looked down and said, "They can call the police. Those who deserve to go to jail will go to jail, and even if someone is killed, someone will be held accountable."

Cui Jian couldn't believe it: "You even discussed the price of jail time?"

Bai Qi said: "It's calculated on a monthly basis." You can get a high monthly salary by going to jail.

Cui Jian maintained an expression of disbelief. Is this capital?

Cui Jian's attitude made Xue Bing very curious: "Cui Jian, are you a 1-star bodyguard?"

"Yes."

Xue Bing: "You have never broken the law?"

Cui Jian: "Do you want to ask me if I have ever killed anyone?"

Xue Bing thought about it and nodded.

Cui Jian: "I always kill people legally."

Bai Qi: "I have investigated. You killed many people in your previous two projects. You did not hold any public office in the United States before. How could you kill people without breaking the law?"

Cui Jian: "I have apathy, and I was saving people, I killed someone to save a child."

One type of symptom of apathy is that one is cold and indifferent to things around him or her, lacks inner experience, does not care about others, and has no sympathy.

After Cui Jian said this, Xue Bing wanted to understand why Cui Jian was so indifferent to Ye Rannuo. As a writer, Xue Bing had studied emotional indifference. Cui Jian's situation met the symptoms of this category, but he lacked an obvious characteristic, which was a lack of sense of responsibility.

Xue Bing and Cui Jian are both right. Cui Jian is indeed emotionally indifferent, but it is not because of his illness, but because he knows himself too well, which leads to his habitual avoidance of people and things. From another perspective, he has very high standards for making friends. Making friends with people who do not meet the standards may lead to two situations: he will be dragged down by the other party, and the other party will be dragged down by him.

In Cui Jian's opinion, Ye Rannuo is just a programmer who masters computer technology, or an ordinary person. Too much contact with Ye Rannuo is not good for both of them. To put it in an inappropriate way, based on Cui Jian's current understanding of Ye Rannuo, the possibility of him falling in love with Duanmu is greater than the possibility of falling in love with Ye Rannuo.

The men above were talking and chatting, while the fight below was drawing to a close, and none of the troublemakers were still standing. The leader of the men in black brushed his slicked-back hair, took out his whistle and blew it, and the men in black headed towards the minibus in a noisy manner.

Bai Qi: "They didn't even give them a chance to call the police. These Han Hei were really ruthless. They even beat up women right away." He expected that the Han Hei he hired would not attack the elderly and women for the time being. He never expected that the whirlwind swept through without any discrimination. Perhaps those people were frightened and didn't have time to call the police.

Xue Bing sat on the tree stump, took off his shoes that were covered in mud, and swung his two white feet: "Then let's go. Cui Jian, carry me down the mountain."

Duanmu subconsciously asked, "Why him?" You're right? With such a handsome guy with charming eyes next to you, why did you choose Cui Jian? Cui Jian's figure and appearance are indeed outstanding, but there is still a certain gap compared to Duanmu.

Why him? Xue Bing just wanted to know more about the person Ye Rannuo liked. She knew Ye Rannuo's situation. There was no reason for them to live together for several months and even have few normal chats. Was he not interested in women, or did he not like women like Ye Rannuo?

Bai Qi said, "Boss, you should go by yourself." He reminded Xue Bing not to play with fire. Cui Jian is not fire, Ye Rannuo is fire.

"Okay." Xue Bing held Bai Qi's wrist, put on his shoes covered with yellow mud, and looked back at Cui Jian, who was still smiling innocently.

It is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. Cui Jian walked in front, and since he had both hands free, it was not difficult for him to go down the mountain. But Xue Bing was not so lucky. After slipping twice, Cui Jian turned sideways, held Xue Bing's wrist with one hand, and led him down the mountain. He used the strength of his hand to help Xue Bing keep his body level. In this way, he safely sent Xue Bing down the slope.

The people below supported each other, some called the police, some called an ambulance, and there was a lot of wailing. The car from the hotel to pick up people was already waiting on the road. Cui Jian, Bai Qi and Duanmu took their backpacks and suitcases, surrounded Xue Bing in a triangle and protected him as they walked out.

"You bastard." A woman covered in mud and water rushed towards Xue Bing fiercely. The next second, she was hit in the cheek by a heavy punch. She fell to the ground and a back tooth was spit out. The person who attacked was Bai Qi, who was holding a suitcase in one hand.

Cui Jian glanced at Bai Qi. This punch was very powerful, but it would not cause damage to the brain. He did not control the force, but the landing point, which was very much like a bodyguard's punch. If Cui Jian had to attack, he would lower the force, but would subconsciously choose the vital points, such as the throat, liver, head, knees, etc. As for the chest, it was more difficult to control the force, because everyone's physical condition was different, and the same punch would cause different damage to different people.

Duanmu rushed into the battle with bare hands, snatched a wooden stick, stabbed the opponent in the abdomen with his backhand, grabbed the man's hair and knocked him to the ground.

Xue Bing was calm and composed, following the three bodyguards calmly. Cui Jian was puzzled again. He and Duanmu had just met Xue Bing today. How could Xue Bing be so sure that the three of them could find a way out? Unless she had some mysterious confidence in Bai Qi.

Among the three bodyguards, Cui Jian seemed to be the most difficult to deal with. Bai Qi was 179 cm tall, slightly shorter than Cui Jian, and had a refined appearance. Duanmu was taller than Cui Jian and had a stronger physique, but his face was too pretty. On the 30-meter path, only Duanmu and Bai Qi were attacked, and of course there were only four attackers.

A seven-seater business car arrived at the hotel. Cui Jian opened the driver's door as usual and greeted the driver, who looked confused. Cui Jian used a smile to resolve the awkwardness and went to the co-pilot seat.

Just as I sat down, Duanmu's voice came from outside the window: "Two strokes."

Cui Jian was about to fight back when Xue Bing got in the car. She sat behind the driver, which was very spacious and on the other side of the door, the best seat. Bai Qi sat behind the passenger seat, so Duanmu could only sit in the back seat.

The car started, Xue Bing looked at the top of the mountain, reluctant to leave, Bai Qi comforted him: "You have to come again tomorrow." The graves have to be moved tomorrow to prevent villains from destroying them. Is tomorrow a good time to move the graves? As long as the money and fists are in place, Feng Shui masters say tomorrow is a good time to move the graves.

"Li Liang?" Xue Bing answered the phone: "Yes, I'm in Baekcheon County, Seoul, I'll stay for a day or two... In the evening? Haha, sure... See you in the evening."

Xue Bing hung up the phone, and Bai Qi turned his head and asked, "That young master of the Li family?"

Xue Bing blushed: "Well, dinner."

Bai Qi nodded. As a special assistant, he had to arrange the itinerary according to his boss's preferences.
