“Why?”
Qin Xi did not understand. The burly man’s situation was already extremely bad. If he was not treated, his life would be over!
The burly man gritted his teeth and stared at Qin Xi with bloodshot eyes. His voice was low and hoarse. “Since you know how I got injured, you should know what kind of trouble I’ll bring you once I’m cured.”
He closed his eyes and said firmly, “I don’t want to get you in trouble. Leave!”
“Indeed. If I save you, I might very well cause myself a lot of trouble.”
Qin Xi nodded in agreement. Then, she asked calmly, “So, what ability do you have that makes you worthy of me saving you? Tell me your identity. If you are worthy, I’ll save you! If not, I’ll turn around and leave! After all, I’m just a nobody. I have a family too.”
“I can’t say!” The big man shook his head, a conflicted look flashing across his weathered face.
Qin Xi raised her eyebrows and said, “As long as you tell me your identity, I’ll treat you. How about that?”
The burly man still shook his head and said firmly, “I won’t tell you, even if I die!”
“Then have you ever thought about Tong Tong? She’s still so young. If you become paralyzed or even die, what will happen to her? In the future, who will buy her a princess dress and stand up for her when she’s bullied?”
Qin Xi’s words undoubtedly touched the softest spot in his heart.
He clenched his fists, the veins on his forehead bulging. His face was filled with pain as he said in a low voice, “I know, but I…”
“I’ll say it again. As long as you tell me your identity, I’ll take you in!”
Qin Xi looked at him steadily, waiting for an answer.
When Han Shi heard his wife say “I’ll take you in”, he was already green with jealousy. If not for the fact that the burly man had stubble on his face and looked like he had been through a lot, he would have rushed forward and carried his wife home to spank her.
“I can’t tell you! Leave!”
As expected, the burly man shook his head again. Even though it was already difficult for him to speak now, he still endured the pain and refused.
Seeing the determination in his eyes, Qin Xi smiled. “Very good. Wang Zhiqiang, I want you and your team!”
Wang Zhiqiang tensed up and suddenly raised his head. His sharp eyes shot straight at Qin Xi, and a strong murderous aura spread out from his body. He said in a stern voice, “Who are you?”
Qin Xi waved her hand with a smile. “Don’t be nervous. Like I said, I’m just a nobody who was dragged over by your daughter. Since you don’t want to tell me your identity, I’ll respect your decision and not pursue the matter. As for how I found out about you and your team…”
She put her index finger to her red lips and said under her breath. “It’s a secret!”
“You don’t have to worry about getting me involved in trouble. I’m not someone to be trifled with. Also, after following me, you’ll have a chance to take revenge.”
“Revenge?” Wang Zhiqiang muttered to himself with a dark glint in his eyes. Clearly, this word gave him a motivation to live on and well.
But he wasn’t stupid enough to sell himself and his team to someone he didn’t know. “Why are you helping me?”
Qin Xi shrugged and said indifferently, “Because I’m short of people. I want to form a transport team to transport something crazy. Therefore, I need a team with good martial arts skills to ensure nothing goes wrong.”
When Wang Zhiqiang heard that, his heart sank and his tone suddenly became cold. “Are you talking about something illegal? If so, you can forget about it!”
Qin Xi giggled. “Don’t worry, it’s definitely legal and innocuous, but it’s just a little special!”
