Chapter 1890: Make the Best of It
After Xiao Yi settled down, it was already late outside. After Xu Qiang returned to the bar, he did not spread the news, but only informed a few confidants.
At this moment, Xu Qiang was in a separate room, waiting for news from Xiao Yi. He was followed by two people along the way, and he felt that something was wrong, so he confirmed it first.
The door was pushed open, and Xiao Yi walked in. Xu Qiang stood up and looked at Xiao Yi and said.
"How is Brother Xiao? Have you asked clearly?"
Xiao Yi nodded. There was still news that he could not ask. He frowned slightly and looked at Xu Qiang and said.
"Xu Qiang, you were followed all the way back to China by these two scorpion mercenaries. I'm afraid you've run into trouble."
"I have a guess in my mind. What's going on, Brother Xiao? They're not just following you, are they?"
"Of course they're not just following you. Their purpose is to find an opportunity to knock you out and take you back to BM to meet their boss."
Xu Qiang was a little confused. He had heard of the scorpion mercenaries before, but he felt that he shouldn't have any grudges against these people, so he wouldn't do such a thing.
In foreign countries, Xu Qiang always followed Xiao Yi's words and would not take the initiative to cause trouble. All his activities were centered around the Qiao Ke family. He scratched his head.
"What does this scorpion want to do?"
"He wants the money you robbed from Qiao Ke."
"What?"
Xu Qiang said in surprise. Xiao Yi told Xu Qiang the information he got from the previous interrogation. After telling Xu Qiang these, Xu Qiang understood.
He thought his activities there were very secretive, but at this critical moment, a traitor appeared among his men and told the boss of the Poison Scorpion what they had done.
After Xu Qiang learned the news, his face obviously changed. What he did abroad could be described as crazy. If this news reached Qiao Ke's ears, the consequences would be serious.
"Damn it, I felt that I had treated those people well, but there was a traitor."
Xiao Yi patted Xu Qiang on the shoulder, signaling Xu Qiang not to worry, and Xiao Yi said.
"No matter where you are, there will always be wolves that can't be fed. Although the news has been leaked, fortunately there are two points that are beneficial to us now."
"What are the two points?"
"First, the boss of the Poison Scorpion, Black Snake, is a greedy person. He knew all this, but he didn't tell Jock and planned to swallow the money privately. Second, we already know this. Now what we need to do is to dig out this traitor and get rid of him to be safe."
Xu Qiang thought about it. What Xiao Yi said here was right. As long as the traitor was solved, they would be safe. Xu Qiang looked up at Xiao Yi with a cold look in his eyes.
"I will contact someone now and find a way to dig out this traitor and get rid of him."
"Don't be so anxious. I think that since the boss of the Poison Scorpion dares to have such an appetite, a pot is just the right size for him."
Xiao Yi already had an idea in his mind. Let Xu Qiang and his group keep a low profile for the time being and don't make any moves.
At the same time, restrict the people around you from going out, reduce the chances of the traitor and the scorpion coming into contact, and wait until the matter here is resolved, and then go back to solve this trouble.
"Thank you, Brother Xiao. If you hadn't discovered it in time, I really don't know what kind of trouble would happen when I go back again."
"Why are you saying thank you to me? It was my idea to disrupt your normal life and let you go to that dangerous place. I must ensure your safety."
Xiao Yi said, Xu Qiang understood what Xiao Yi meant, but if he thought from another point of view, if he hadn't met Xiao Yi, he didn't know what kind of life he would be living now.
It was the appearance of Xiao Yi that changed Xu Qiang's life trajectory. He smiled and said with relief.
"Brother Xiao, you are right. After returning from that place this time, I learned a lot. Some things can only be said to have grown up after real experience."
Xiao Yi stretched out a fist, and Xu Qiang also did the same action. After the two people bumped their fists a few times, Xiao Yi laughed a few times.
"I feel relieved after hearing your words. Let's go, brothers. We haven't seen each other for such a long time. Let's go out for a drink first."
Next, Xiao Yi took Xu Qiang to a nearby restaurant and ordered a lot of special dishes. Xu Qiang came back from abroad and couldn't eat such things abroad.
Especially in the previous period of time, Xu Qiang and his group hid in a cave on the island and could only live on some compressed biscuits and canned food every day. Sometimes it's good to have something to eat.
There is no right to be picky. Scorpions, lizards, and some giant reptiles in the desert are all on Xu Qiang's menu. In Xu Qiang's eyes, they have become fiber, protein, and fat. Now that he has returned to China, sitting here to eat, he is really a little uncomfortable.
"Order some special dishes here. See if there is anything else you want to eat. Just order it here. I'm not short of money now."
Xiao Yi handed the menu to Xu Qiang. Now, let alone Xiao Yi, even Xu Qiang can say here that I am not short of money with wealth.
The money robbed from Qiao Ke before was more than 100 million. Apart from the part left, Xu Qiang had 80 million in his hands. He was not as rich as Xiao Yi, but he was also a multi-millionaire.
"Then I really won't be polite. What do you eat every day there? Sometimes when you open your mouth to eat, the wind blows sand into your mouth. I think the life in China is better. This is called life."
"You should be content. If I send you to the snowy plains, let alone eating these, you will be hungry all day long and fight with the wolves in the snowy plains."
The two laughed a few times here. Only those who have really experienced it can understand the taste of their words.
Twelve dishes plus three bottles of white wine, Xiao Yi drank two bottles by himself, and Xu Qiang drank one bottle. During this period, Xu Qiang's alcohol tolerance has also increased.
So the waiter in the restaurant was a little surprised that the two people actually ate all the twelve dishes. It was really all gone. There was only some soup and some broken bones left on the plate.
It might be that these two people had too big appetites. Others would not be able to finish four dishes. After Xu Qiang had eaten and drunk his fill, he picked up a toothpick and started picking his teeth, half leaning back in his chair.
