Chapter 353 Recognized
Then, a heavy impact.
"Ah..." Zhao Xi cried out in surprise, and fell headlong into the door of the private room.
The door to the private room wasn't forced open, but Zhao Xi was knocked to the ground, his veil almost falling off.
However, even if the veil didn't fall off, Zhao Xi's face was revealed in an instant.
Coupled with his hurried, undisguised exclamation, Shu Yu immediately confirmed his identity.
She quickly knelt down to help him up, asking, "Are you alright?"
"I bumped into you so hard to see if you were alright. Are you walking so fast because you're rushing to be reborn? Ouch..."
Zhao Xi not only hurt his shoulder from the impact, but also his head. When he tried to stand up, he twisted his ankle. It was an entirely unexpected disaster.
Seeing that the other staff members were walking over, Shu Yu quickly moved closer to Zhao Xi and whispered, "Dr. Zhao, it's me."
A clear, familiar female voice rang out, and Zhao Xi stared in astonishment at the middle-aged man in front of him.
"You, you..."
Two waiters approached the two men and asked with concern, "Are you alright, sir?"
Zhao Xi suddenly came to his senses, looked at Shu Yu in front of him, saw that she looked completely different from before, and thought of how she dressed up as a bearded man last time. He couldn't help but swallow.
Why was it that he failed to recognize Shu Yu twice, but she recognized him at a glance?
Is there no justice in this world? Is his outfit really that bad?
Shu Yu went to help him up, apologizing as she did so, "I'm sorry, are you hurt? My private room is just up ahead, and I happen to have some good liniment for bruises and sprains. Why don't you come sit down at my place and I'll put some medicine on you?"
Zhao Xi gave her a complicated look. The two waiters also asked him, "Sir, are you alright? Do you need a doctor?"
Zhao Xi secretly let out a breath and waved his hand at the two of them, saying, "No need."
Then, looking at Shu Yu, she said in a low voice, "Sir, I don't need your liniment. I have my own. Just help me downstairs. Then explain to my master so that he doesn't think I've caused trouble and gotten injured outside and wants to punish me."
Shu Yu's eyes lit up slightly; it seemed that Meng Yunzheng was indeed here.
Without hesitation, she agreed, "Okay, no problem. I'll explain it to your husband and make sure he doesn't blame you."
Seeing that they had reached a consensus, the two men stepped back and made way for each other.
Shu Yu immediately reached out to support Zhao Xi, and they walked step by step toward the stairwell.
Before leaving, I took one last look at the private room in front of me.
Despite the impact and commotion, no one came to open the door. Although this was within Shu Yu's expectations, she was still somewhat disappointed.
With a sigh of relief, Shu Yu helped Zhao Xi downstairs and headed straight for a private room on the second floor.
Neither of them uttered a sound the entire way; this was clearly not the place to speak.
When they reached the door of the private room, Zhao Xi knocked and called out softly, "Master."
The door to the private room was opened, and when Meng Yunzheng looked up, he saw that in addition to Zhao Xi, there was another unfamiliar man.
A hint of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure.
He then silently stepped aside to let the two of them in.
Meng Yunzheng closed the door again, bolted it, and then, before Zhao Xi could speak, asked, "Miss Lu?"
