Chapter 156 Gathering Together
Chapter 156 Gathering Together
"Aqi, I said put it down!" Boss Lei shouted again.
This time, Ah Qi didn't dare to disobey again. He slowly put down the gun, but his heart was full of unwillingness.
He didn't understand why the boss was so special to this woman and even scolded himself for her.
Shi Qingqian looked at Boss Lei and the younger brother, with complicated emotions in her heart. She was angry at the younger brother's behavior, and surprised by Boss Lei's reaction.
I thought Boss Lei would allow his younger brother to disrespect her, but I didn't expect him to protect her so much.
Boss Lei stood up and walked to Shi Qingqian, his eyes full of apology and concern.
"I'm sorry for scaring you. He's ignorant and I will teach him a lesson." His voice was gentle and sincere, completely different from his usual coldness.
Shi Qingqian met Boss Lei's eyes and saw the tenderness in his eyes, which made her heart skip a beat.
She is a married woman, not an innocent girl.
The fiery look in Boss Lei's eyes was almost exactly the same as the one Xu Huaian showed every time he pestered her.
She had not expected this result, and was secretly wondering how to deal with it.
She knew clearly that being noticed by someone like Boss Lei was definitely not a good thing, as it might bring her more trouble and danger.
Shi Qingqian hurried back to the room and immediately entered the space.
In the space, Ami, in the form of a huge eagle, stayed quietly, waiting for her instructions.
Shi Qingqian walked quickly to Ah Miao and said seriously, "Ah Miao, the situation has changed. We must act tonight and send all the children away."
A Miao Eagle nodded and let out a low cry: "Qianqian, I'm ready and can set off at any time."
Shi Qingqian frowned slightly, her heart full of worry.
"We have to be careful tonight and not make any mistakes. Those kids are our responsibility and we have to keep them safe."
A Miao responded, "Don't worry, Qianqian, I will do my best to get the children away from here safely."
Shi Qingqian paced back and forth in the space, thinking about every detail.
"We need to find a way to gather the children together first, and then find the right time to release you and quickly take the children away."
Shi Qingqian took a deep breath. She knew that in order to send the children away smoothly, she had to gather them together first.
And right now, the only one who can do this is Boss Lei.
She sorted out her thoughts, walked out of the room and went to look for Boss Lei.
Soon, she found Boss Lei in the yard. Boss Lei was discussing something with several of his younger brothers. When he saw Shi Qingqian coming, his eyes instantly became gentle.
"What do you want from me?" There was a hint of concern in Boss Lei's voice.
Shi Qingqian calmed down, looked at Boss Lei and said, "Boss Lei, I'd like to ask for a favor. Call all the children in the village together. I want to see who else is abusing their own children."
Boss Lei was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Shi Qingqian to make such a request.
He frowned and asked, "Why do you do this suddenly?"
Shi Qingqian bit her lip and said, "These children are so pitiful. I can't just sit there and watch. There must be more than just those two families in the village who beat children, right?"
As the leader of the human traffickers, Boss Lei has never been a good person. If anyone else said these words to him, he would immediately pick up a gun and shoot that person.
But the person in front of me is Shi Qingqian.
Just when those younger brothers were preparing to move out to avoid the blood splattering on themselves, no one expected that Boss Lei actually nodded in agreement.
"it is good."
Boss Lei's reaction shocked all the younger brothers present.
They stared at their boss with wide eyes in disbelief.
In their impression, the boss has always been cold-blooded and ruthless, and he even sneers at those who talk about morality and justice.
But now, facing Shi Qingqian's request, the boss agreed without hesitation.
Boss Lei looked at Shi Qingqian's determined yet compassionate eyes, and his heart moved slightly.
He didn't know why he agreed to this request. Perhaps the determination in Shi Qingqian's eyes touched the softness that had long been buried deep in his heart.
The younger brothers looked at each other, at a loss.
They thought the boss would be furious and might even punish Shi Qingqian.
However, the reality was completely beyond their expectations.
One of the younger brothers couldn't help but whispered, "Boss, this..." Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by Boss Lei's sharp eyes.
Boss Lei raised his chin slightly and said to his brothers, "Go and call all the children in the village over."
Although the younger brothers were full of doubts, they did not dare to disobey the boss's orders and took action one after another.
Shi Qingqian looked at Boss Lei and was a little surprised. She didn't expect him to agree so readily.
A trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes, and she said softly, "Thank you, Boss Lei."
Boss Lei was slightly stunned, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "No need, as long as it is your request, I will try my best to meet it."
Curing your own illness is nothing.
After a while, the children in the village were brought into the yard one after another.
Their faces had different expressions, some were afraid, while others looked numb.
The children stood in a row in the yard, and the atmosphere was a little tense.
Shi Qingqian looked at these children and guessed that they must have been abducted.
Shi Qingqian frowned slightly and looked at Boss Lei with a firm gaze.
"Could you please have these children put in their rooms? I want to talk to them one by one and get to know their situation."
"Okay," Boss Lei responded briefly, then told his younger brothers to take the children to the room.
Shi Qingqian walked into the room and looked at the nervous and helpless eyes of these children, feeling a pang of pain in her heart.
She closed the door softly and walked over to the children.
"Children, don't be afraid, I am here to help you," Shi Qingqian's voice was gentle but firm, trying to make the children relax.
The children looked at each other in disbelief.
They have experienced so much fear and pain in this strange place that it is difficult for them to trust others.
Shi Qingqian saw the children's doubts and said with a smile, "I know you are all scared, but please believe me, I will definitely find a way to get you home."
She walked up to a little girl, squatted down, and gently held her hand. "Tell me, what's your name? Where are you from?"
The little girl looked at Shi Qingqian timidly, hesitated for a while, and then whispered: "My name is Xiaoya, I don't remember where I came from..."
Shi Qingqian felt a pang in her heart. She gently stroked the little girl's hair and comforted her, "It's okay, little girl. I will help you find a home in the future."
