Hearing this, Shi Tian was still processing the information when Lu Ya smiled slightly and said, "What do you mean by 'black'? If you want to go after Xiao Yu and Xia Shou, you better take personal safety precautions first. Back in middle school, a boy handed a note to Li Ziyu, and Li Ping brought people to break his legs!"
Shi Tian shivered at the thought, and just then, a line of cars behind him honked, which helped him steady the steering wheel. Was it really that terrifying? Pingtou Ge didn’t look that intimidating! Was he really that ruthless?
According to Lu Ya, if he wanted to pursue Li Ziyu, the biggest obstacle would be Pingtou Ge! No, he needed to prepare Rod quickly; hopefully, when the time came, Rod would go easy on him because of their connection!
He had seen his fair share of brutality. A couple of years ago in college, a wealthy second-generation kid slapped Xiao Yu while they were in line for food. That same night, the second-generation kid drove his car off the highway guardrail. Within a month, his family was back to square one! Otherwise, how could he have ended up here drilling wells at sea?
Listening to Lu Ya and Air Force One banter back and forth, Shi Tian suddenly thought that maybe Pingtou Ge’s name wasn’t so wrong after all. Whatever it was, if they didn’t comply, they would just have to fight it out—better to act first and talk later!
High risks meant high rewards. With this in mind, Shi Tian felt that having a brother-in-law like that wouldn’t be too bad; at least he would have someone backing him up!
“Don’t listen to their nonsense! If you like someone, just go for it! If Li Ping dares to stab you in the back, let me know; I’ll make sure he ends up sold off in Africa!” He shot a glare at the two of them, causing Shi Ye to respond with such authority that they immediately fell silent.
Things were manageable domestically; Shi Ye still had some reservations. But once they were abroad, Shi Ye’s tricks could be endless; both of them had suffered quite a bit because of it!
Pulling up in front of Old Zhang's shop, Shi Ye's bravado quickly faded. Inside the shop, Li Ziyu and Yun Wan'er were sitting together with a pot of crayfish. When they saw Shi Tian's car stop, they rushed over to greet him. Shi Ye felt like hiding in a screw hole.
As the car door opened and everyone got out one by one, Shi Chui also walked out from inside the shop—adding another ally to their ranks—leaving Shi Ye with no choice but to get out as well!
Surprisingly, neither Shi Chui nor Yun Wan'er brought up marriage proposals, which caught Shi Ye off guard. The golden three days? That seemed unlikely; perhaps it was because there were too many people around. At most today or tomorrow; if they could hold off until the day after tomorrow morning without mentioning marriage proposals, that would be a miracle!
No way! He couldn’t give them that chance. He decided to get himself drunk first and muddle through today; as for tomorrow—he’d think about strategies then!
Shi Tian was a perfect shield for him; let them worry about their son first so they wouldn’t have energy left to focus on him!
Resolute in his decision, Shi Ye bravely headed into the banquet. He would just get through today’s situation and think about strategies tomorrow—time to do some persuasion work on Shi Chui and Yun Wan'er!
"When did Xiao Yu come back from Sanya? This time he brought back quite a few good things from Africa; I’ll let you pick a few tomorrow!" Li Ziyu rubbed her head as Lu Ya chuckled.
"Good things? What did you bring back? You went to Benin, right? Did you bring back any statues? If so, I want to pick two!" After escaping Lu Ya's clutches, Li Ziyu still had her mind on what Lu Ya had brought back.
"No statues were brought back, but I did bring some gemstones—do you want them? If so, I’ll let you choose first!" Looking at Li Ziyu stepping aside eagerly, Lu Ya scratched his head and said.
The group was lightly packed; they really hadn’t brought much back with them.
Benin did have statues; however, what use would they be? In this little corner of the country, those African native gods didn’t hold much power! If they dared come here causing trouble, local gods would team up to take care of them!
"Xiao Yu! We’re going out to sea the day after tomorrow; want to come along and find your brother?" Before Li Ziyu could respond, Air Force piped up with a smile.
He had more tricks up his sleeve than Lu Ya when it came to charming the Little Prince of Beijing Circle.
As soon as she heard about finding Pingtou Ge, Li Ziyu completely forgot about the gemstones Lu Ya mentioned.
Sure! The day after tomorrow, right? Tomorrow, Eleven and September will also come. We should take them along; they haven't been to the sea yet!
They are coming too? That's even better! September could use a break. Let's bring them along and invite your brother to go play at Xisha. The sea there is much more beautiful than here!
Just a simple greeting, but there's quite a lot of information packed in that! Shi Tian's mind is having trouble keeping up.
Air Force knows Eleven and September, and they seem pretty familiar with each other. Those two are probably part of the Beijing Circle as well.
But that's not the most important part; Li Ziyu's relationship with Lu Ya is definitely closer than with Air Force. Lu Ya isn't as outgoing as Air Force, so it's surprising to see him greet others so naturally. This is the first time Shi Tian has witnessed that.
The next morning, before dawn, Shi Tian was woken up by Shi Ye's phone call. Last night, Shi Ye and the others stayed at the hotel nearby. Although their yard was cleaned up, the rooms weren't ready yet, so they had to make do with the hotel for one more day.
After having breakfast with the three gentlemen, they drove the Mini Air Force to the Yacht Dock; these three gentlemen were going to inspect the goods.
What number is this rod? Holding the rod, a few of them cast out the Air Force's Stern a couple of times. Shi Ye turned to Shi Tian and asked, "How’s it going? Is it good?"
I was originally thinking of getting a rod, but there aren't any big fish around; it would be a bit of a waste! Watching the three of them fiddling with their Boat Rods, Shi Tian smiled proudly.
