Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 800 - 803: Umbrella
As she spoke, Nie Qiqi cried even more miserably.
"BOO HOO HOO! Why is my life so hard, meeting someone like you!"
Watching Nie Qiqi's crying intensify, Liu Ergou, who had been about to leave, stopped in his tracks. Although Liu Ergou wasn't afraid of anything, he was still afraid of girls crying. He knew that once a girl started, it was a huge pain to get her to stop, especially a girl like Nie Qiqi.
Listening to her escalating sobs, Liu Ergou let out a helpless sigh, then turned around and walked over to her.
"Alright, alright, why the tears? And crying so fiercely, too!" he whispered softly. "I might have bullied you, but when did I ever threaten you, huh? I'm an upright man; I've never threatened you, so don't talk nonsense!"
Nie Qiqi, who was already crying her eyes out, wailed even louder at his words. Her tears flowed like a breached floodgate.
"BOO HOO HOO!"
"Liu Ergou, how can you be so shameless!" she sobbed. "You still dare to say you didn't threaten me? What were you doing just now then?! Saying you wouldn't teach me the Taiyi 14 Needles anymore—if that's not a threat, what is it? A negotiation?!"
Nie Qiqi's words left Liu Ergou utterly speechless.
Okay, I really did threaten her just now.
But Liu Ergou swore he truly hadn't expected her to cry like this. In the end, he threw his hands up in surrender.
"Alright, alright, stop crying! I won't threaten you anymore! I'll teach you the Taiyi 14 Needles, okay?! Just stop crying for now. If you keep this up, I seriously won't teach you!"
The moment he finished speaking, Nie Qiqi, who had been bawling, instantly fell silent. She looked up at him, her eyes glistening with tears, and asked, "You'll really teach me the Taiyi 14 Needles? And you won't threaten me anymore?"
Liu Ergou nodded. "Mmm, I really won't threaten you anymore!"
"Then when will you teach me?" Nie Qiqi pressed.
This time, Liu Ergou didn't answer right away. He hesitated. Seeing this, Nie Qiqi didn't hesitate at all and immediately started crying loudly again.
"I knew it! You just don't want to teach me, or you wouldn't be hesitating! BOO HOO HOO!"
Watching her start up again, Liu Ergou hurriedly covered her mouth. "Stop, stop, stop! You're unbelievable! I'll teach you when I have time, alright? I really don't have time in the next couple of days. I have something to do later today. If you don't believe me, you can come with me and see!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, Liu Ergou regretted them.
Why on earth did I tell her to come with me? She knows nothing. Having her tag along will just cause more trouble. Isn't my life complicated enough already?
But before Liu Ergou could say anything else, Nie Qiqi immediately replied, "Fine! You said it. I'll go with you later!"
Hearing her agree, Liu Ergou slapped a hand to his forehead.
Why can't I keep my big mouth shut? I really need to think before I speak from now on.
But what was said was said, like water spilled on the ground. It was too late for regrets. Thinking this, Liu Ergou began to instruct her earnestly.
"Listen to me, Nie Qiqi, what I'm about to say is very serious, so you better listen up! The place I'm going to is very dangerous. It's where Uncle Zhang was hit with that Gu curse! Once we're there, you follow my orders and don't mess around. Just behave and do as you're told. Otherwise, you can stay here and keep crying!"
When Nie Qiqi heard the word "Gu," her eyes actually began to shine, her expression filled with excitement. Clearly, she was very interested in the topic. Without a second thought, she nodded.
"Okay, Er Gou, I'll listen to everything you say! Don't worry, I'll be sure to follow your orders! If I don't, you can pull down my pants and spank me!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou rolled his eyes and said with annoyance, "Forget it. I'm afraid you'll just start howling again. That racket of yours could kill someone!"
With an irritated huff, Liu Ergou stood up and walked out of the hotel. Nie Qiqi hurried to follow.
Liu Ergou first stopped at a roadside stall for breakfast. Then, using the address Zhang Yuan had given him, he hailed a cab and took Nie Qiqi straight to the building.
Soon, they arrived at the base of the office building. Standing at the entrance, Liu Ergou looked up and softly read the name on the facade.
"Umbrella Biotechnology Co., Ltd."
As he finished reading, he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. "Umbrella Biotechnology Co., Ltd.?" he muttered to himself. "Tsk, I honestly suspect that if I had come two days later, we might've had a full-blown biohazard crisis on our hands! How did Umbrella even get involved in this?!"
Beside him, Nie Qiqi nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I bet the chairman of this company has watched way too many movies to pick a name like that! It's ridiculous!"
For once, Liu Ergou and Nie Qiqi were in complete agreement. After grumbling for a moment, they strode confidently toward the building's entrance.
Just as they arrived, two security guards stepped forward, holding out their hands to stop them.
"Hello, this area is for authorized personnel only," one of the guards said. "May I ask what your business is here?"
Liu Ergou replied, "I'm here to collect rent. Have your chairman come out."
The guard was stunned for a moment, then said irritably, "Are you taking us for a couple of fools? The landlord was just here last month. We know what he looks like! Where did you pop up from? Daring to impersonate the landlord… I'm telling you, you'd better leave now, or we won't be so polite!"
The guard finished with a cold snort, but Liu Ergou showed no intention of leaving.
"Oh, so you recognize the landlord, but not the landlord's son, huh? Such great employees, always looking out for the boss! Just you watch. If I don't have your company evicted from this building by tomorrow, I'll write my family name, Zhang, upside down!"
With that, Liu Ergou turned to leave without the slightest hesitation. The two guards were dumbfounded by his words. Staring at his retreating back, one guard whispered to the other, "Hey… does the landlord have a son? You don't think this kid is trying to fool us, do you?"
The other guard shook his head. "I'm not sure if he does, but I think I heard that the landlord might have a son."
At these words, the two guards exchanged a look, then simultaneously hurried forward to block Liu Ergou's path.
