Chapter 1938: Pitiable or Sad
When Pi Yangyang grabbed Qu Yongnian's wrist, a wisp of true energy flowed out from his fingertips, following Qu Yongnian's wrist veins and rushing into his body.
Qu Yongnian, who was originally a little confused, suddenly shuddered and his eyes suddenly became much clearer.
He stared at Pi Yangyang and said in astonishment: "Pi Yangyang, why are you here?"
Pi Yangyang released his hand, frowned, and said, "Come out with me."
After saying that, he turned around and walked outside.
He really couldn't stand the smell in here and felt like he couldn't breathe.
Qu Yongnian seemed to have found a savior, and hurried to catch up, saying behind him: "Pi Yangyang, I am your uncle, you can't just ignore me... Give me some money, I... I want to buy some wine..."
Pi Yangyang said coldly: "Come out with me first."
Several people quickly left the basement, and the moment they saw the sun again, they couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Although Qu Yongnian still reeked of alcohol, he was clearly sober.
Unlike what I saw before, Qu Yongnian's hair was messy like a bird's nest and his suit was wrinkled, as if it had not been washed for a long time.
Pi Yangyang didn't care about all that and walked straight outside.
Qu Yongnian hurriedly followed, and the few of them left "Zhu Long Town" and came to the street outside.
But the street was also in a mess, so Pi Yangyang could only take Qu Yongnian and continue walking outside.
"Where are you taking me?"
Qu Yongnian asked in some surprise.
"Stop talking nonsense and just follow me." Pi Yangyang's voice was cold.
If Shen Yi had not told him to come find Qu Yongnian's family, he would have turned and left the moment he saw Qu Yongnian.
Although Qu Yongnian always had an inexplicable sense of superiority in front of Shen Yi's family, he was indeed afraid of Pi Yangyang from the bottom of his heart.
He knew very well that this nephew-in-law was not as easy to control as the Su family.
What's more, seeing Pi Yangyang in this situation was like seeing a savior, and he didn't dare not follow him.
Leaving this narrow and chaotic street, the few of them came to the main street outside.
"Meng Ziyan, just find a place to sit." Pi Yangyang said to Meng Ziyan.
Meng Ziyan thought for a moment, then pointed ahead and said, “Two hundred meters in the past, there’s a small park where you can sit.”
"Okay, let's go there."
Pi Yangyang made the decision immediately.
The group came to the small park and saw that although there were many homeless people lying there, it was still much better than the street.
There are also many park benches here. Although homeless people are lying on some of them, there are still a few chairs that are empty.
Pi Yangyang pointed to an empty chair and said, "Go sit there."
Qu Yongnian walked over obediently and sat on the chair.
Everyone disliked the smell of alcohol on him and refused to sit down.
Chu Ge took Zhuque and Xuanwu to another chair nearby and sat down, waiting for Pi Yangyang.
"Tell me, where are your aunt and Qu Na?" Pi Yangyang stood in front of Qu Yongnian and asked directly.
Qu Yongnian reached out and grabbed a handful of messy hair, and said with some pain: "I don't know... Shen Xian will be back in the evening, but Qu Na doesn't know, and I haven't seen her for a long time."
Pi Yangyang couldn't help but be stunned. "You haven't seen her for a long time? She's your daughter, and you're hiding in the basement drinking instead of looking for her?"
"What can I do if I don't drink?" Qu Yongnian said dejectedly.
Then, he stared at Meng Ziyan and said with gritted teeth: “If it weren’t for this bastard, how could our family become like this?”
Meng Ziyan's face twitched with anger, and he said angrily, "Qu Yongnian, get it straight, am I the one who caused you to become like this?"
"Isn't it?" Qu Yongnian stood up suddenly, glaring at him. "If you hadn't flattered me, saying that as long as we followed you to the U Country, you would guarantee that our family would live a life of luxury! In the end, you bastard, you cheated us out of our money and kicked us out..."
Pi Yangyang frowned.
This was the second time he heard Qu Yongnian say that Meng Ziyan had cheated his family of money.
He looked at Meng Ziyan coldly and asked, "What's going on? Is what he said true?"
Meng Ziyan's eyes flickered noticeably, and then he stiffened his neck and said, "You don't know, this family comes here, eats well, wears good clothes, and takes taxis whenever they go out. They really think they are rich. With the little money they have, can they afford such a toss?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Qu Yongnian shouted angrily before Meng Ziyan could finish. "Is that just a small amount of money? It's over one million! It's all our family's savings..."
Pi Yangyang was stunned. "More than one million?"
He clearly remembered that when this family was in Qingjiang, they couldn't even afford to rent a house.
How come more than one million suddenly appeared?
Qu Yongnian saw Pi Yangyang's questioning expression, and he steeled himself and said through gritted teeth, "The one million was given by your mother-in-law, and Qu Na still has over 200,000 in private savings..."
Pi Yangyang suddenly realized that before his family came to the U.S., his mother-in-law finally gave Shen Xian one million secretly out of consideration for their sisterly love.
Su Xueqing probably doesn’t even know about this.
But this is understandable. Shen Yi is a person who values family. Knowing that her sister was going to the U country and unable to persuade her, she could only quietly give her some money, hoping that they would not have a hard time in the U country.
Although more than 1.2 million is not a lot, it is not necessary to live in the basement and ask Shen Xian to wash dishes after just a few months, right?
He looked at Meng Ziyan coldly. Meng Ziyan suddenly felt a chill on his back and trembled all over. He said guiltily: "This is the U country, not China. What can one million do..."
His voice became lower and lower because he felt the murderous look in Pi Yangyang's eyes.
Although Pi Yangyang had no good feelings towards Shen Xian's family, he would not allow Meng Ziyan to deceive them.
"We'll settle our accounts later!" Pi Yangyang said coldly.
Meng Ziyan lowered his head and did not dare to answer.
"Qu Yongnian, where is Qu Na? Can we contact her?" Pi Yangyang looked at Qu Yongnian and asked.
Qu Yongnian sighed and said dejectedly, "I really don't know. She doesn't want to contact me. If I want to find her, I can only wait for her mother to come back. Maybe she will know..."
Seeing him like this, Pi Yangyang was sure that he really didn't know.
Pi Yangyang couldn't help but frown.
Shen Xian ran away when she saw him, otherwise there would have been no need for so much trouble.
"Okay, contact me when she comes back in the evening. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."
Pi Yangyang thought for a while and said.
"Is there any wine?" A gleam flashed in Qu Yongnian's eyes.
Pi Yangyang's eyes turned cold, and he said coldly: "You still want to negotiate with me now?"
Qu Yongnian immediately wilted and said dejectedly, "I...I will bring her out."
Pi Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Go back and wait for her."
Qu Yongnian got up and returned to "Zhu Long Town" alone.
Looking at his lonely and slightly hunched back, Chu Ge couldn't help but say, "Brother, your uncle has become so miserable, and all he knows is to eat and wait for death."
Pi Yangyang said, "According to my mother-in-law, he was quite good back then, having graduated from a prestigious university. He had a good job within the government. But for some reason, he just didn't like China, always feeling it was backward. After getting married, he took his family to live in Country E..."
"Perhaps it's because he's lived abroad for too long, boasted too much to people back home, and got carried away. He thinks he's truly living in a developed country, truly superior. Even though he clearly knows that China today is no longer the backward and impoverished country it once was, he still refuses to wake up from the illusion he's woven..."
Chu Ge chuckled softly, "This is because he's unwilling to admit that he's worse off than people back home. He's so arrogant that he can't get off his arrogance."
Pi Yangyang nodded, "That's it."
Then, he glanced at the many homeless people in the park and saw that there were several Asian faces among them. He breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Aren't there people who think they are superior people just because they ate a donut here?"
At this moment, he was feeling a little complicated.
He also didn't know whether Qu Yongnian was pitiful or pathetic.
Pi Yangyang and Chu Ge felt that this place was very depressing, so they prepared to return to Chinatown.
Only there do they feel that everything is a little more normal.
