C126 (1/2)

Her face was pale and her eyes were lifeless. Zou Da immediately asked her what was wrong.

Xiao Jiu shook her head in silence, tears brimming in her eyes. The more Zou Da thought about it, the more he understood what exactly had happened to Xiao Jiu.

But Xiao Jiu didn't say anything.

In the end, Zou Da had no other choice but to sit beside Xiao Jiu and wait until dawn before leaving.

After returning home, Zou Da thought left and right about what had happened to Xiao Jiu and was worried that the diplomat had sent people to capture her, so he paid for a few thugs to surround her. Whenever there were strange people around, they would go up to stop them and protect them.

After a few weeks, nothing strange had happened, and the business was still doing quite well. Xiao Jiu had also returned to her previous cheerful state, causing Zou Da's heart to slowly calm down.

One day, a monk from Zhihua Temple came to find Zou Da, saying that he would be leaving Zhihua Temple for the south. During this period, Zou Da and the monk had a very good relationship.

Therefore, Zou Da was letting the monk practice for him, Xiao Jiu was accompanying him at the side, and the three of them drank a lot. Under the stimulation of alcohol, Zou Da told the monk that you were a good person, that you were loyal and had helped my Xiao Jiu before, and that I want to become brothers with you!

The monk was startled, seeing Xiao Jiu's red cheeks and low head, looking at him in silence, the monk's face looked a little weird, but in the end, he still complied with Zou Da's request. With Xiao Jiu as a witness, the two of them acknowledged each other as brothers.

Then, Zou Da gave the monk a stack of money and said, 'Brother, take this money and buy some food on the road. When you get to the south, remember to call me. It's fine if you don't have a phone to write a letter.

The monk agreed and waved goodbye to Zou Da and Xiao Jiu. Remembering the scene of the three of them touring Zhihua Temple, he couldn't help but feel sad.

Xiao Jiu was even more reluctant to leave. She looked at the monk and said that he must write a letter.

After the monk left, Zou Da pulled Xiao Jiu's hand and sighed emotionally, saying that it would be better for us to marry Xiao Jiu than her. As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Jiu retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted, and lowered her head to say that she was not in a good mood right now, and did not want to talk about this.

Zou Da thought that the monk had left, making Xiao Jiu sad. After all, it was not only him and the monk, even Xiao Jiu and the monk had a deep relationship.

Zou Da temporarily put this matter aside.

One day when Zou Da was resting at home, suddenly the old lady outside shouted that someone was looking for him. Zou Da thought it was strange; he didn't know anyone here.

Those overseas Chinese usually saw each other. Even if they had matters to attend to, they would only make phone calls and rarely visited.

Zou Da went out to take a look and saw that it was a hoodlum. He suddenly remembered that a few days ago, they had helped him to look for something.

The two thugs were very restrained as they invited him into their room. They had seen such a big house before, so how could they get into a relationship with such a young master?

Hence, they did what Zou Da had instructed them to do very seriously. Moreover, they did not know where he had gotten this Seagull Generation Camera from, but the photos he had taken were very clear.

They handed out a few black-and-white photos to Zou Da. When Zou Da took them and looked at them, he couldn't help but be shocked.

The second one was still this man, he was holding a box in his hands and talking to Xiao Jiu. The third one seemed to be taken at the same time, where that man and Xiao Jiu were embracing.

Seeing this photo, Zou Da felt as if he had been struck in the heart!

He still had several tens of thick photos in his hands, but Zou Da didn't want to look at them in front of a few thugs, so he gave them a few hundred yuan.

The hoodlum hurriedly took his money and left as if he had met Hong En. At that time, the salary of an ordinary worker was only a hundred yuan a year.

Zou Da's hands trembled as he looked at the photo. The content was that every once in a while, Xiao Jiu would meet with this man, and this man would always wear a different outfit, but the only similarity was his top hat and those high boots!

Every time they met, Xiao Jiu would always pass a stack of paper things to the man. Sometimes, the man would give Xiao Jiu a few things, and finally, Zou Da saw something he didn't want to see. The man hugged and kissed Xiao Jiu, while the man gave Xiao Jiu a bottle of red wine.

Zou Da's heart felt like it was being bitten by tens of thousands of ants. He remembered clearly that the bottle of red wine he drank from was precisely the bottle that this man gave to Xiao Jiu.
