Chapter 274 You'll Be Mine Sooner or Later
Xia Yuhuan stared in astonishment, her mouth agape, unable to process what she was seeing.
No, has Chi Yanzhou gone mad?
Why punch someone when they've already stopped?
Is he really not afraid of being reported by Zhou Shizui because he hasn't returned to the team yet?
Chi Yanzhou didn't care about Zhou Shizui and Xia Yuhuan's reactions and directly pulled her away.
Zhou Shizui's head was buzzing from the beating.
Only after the two had walked away did he prop himself up and sit up.
He watched their retreating figures, spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, and let out a cold laugh.
His gaze fixed on Xia Yuhuan was filled with a morbid, determined look.
"You're mine, I'll bring you to my side sooner or later," Zhou Shizui murmured to himself.
Chi Yanzhou pulled Xia Yuhuan into the car.
Xia Yuhuan complained, "Why did you punch him when you were about to leave? Aren't you afraid he'll report you?"
"Since he hasn't returned to the team, let him report me if he wants," Chi Yanzhou said indifferently.
Xia Yuhuan: Sure enough, her idea was right. This guy is just taking advantage of the fact that he hasn't returned to the team and is causing trouble!
"Even if you haven't returned to the team, you can't act recklessly. If someone reports you, you'll be in trouble."
"Don't worry, he won't report it," Chi Yanzhou said calmly as he smoothly reversed the car.
"How did you know?" Xia Yuhuan asked curiously.
Chi Yanzhou glanced at her and said, "What a silly girl."
"??? Chi Yanzhou, don't go too far! What did I do wrong? Explain yourself!" Xia Yuhuan was a little agitated.
Chi Yanzhou said calmly, "He has designs on you, so naturally he wouldn't report me, cause you trouble, or create a bad impression."
"However, he will use his injury to flaunt in front of you, trying to get your attention and sympathy."
Chi Yanzhou said with a cold snort, "Shameless."
Xia Yuhuan: "..."
"Wasn't that still giving him a chance?"
If Chi Yanzhou hadn't attacked Zhou Shizui, none of this would have happened.
"Believe it or not, if I hadn't come over, he would have kissed you!"
Chi Yanzhou gripped the steering wheel tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging.
Xia Yuhuan: "..."
She really didn't know.
"Little dumpling, didn't you say Zhou Shizui didn't do anything? Why is he kissing me?"
Little dumpling: "It looks like we're going to kiss, but we haven't kissed yet."
Xia Yuhuan: "Nonsense, if we really kiss, will it be too late?"
Little dumpling: "..."
"From now on, whenever Zhou Shizui appears by my side, no matter what I'm doing, remind me, understand?" Xia Yuhuan emphasized.
"Okay, I understand," the little dumpling replied.
Seeing that the little dumpling obediently agreed, Xia Yuhuan's anger subsided considerably.
She knew in her heart that this was not Xiao Tuanzi's fault.
Although the little dumpling is conscious, its cognitive age is probably quite young, like a child, so it's normal that it sometimes can't distinguish things clearly.
Knowing that Chi Yanzhou was jealous, Xia Yuhuan raised her hand and patted the back of his hand.
"Okay, don't be upset. I'm not blaming you. I was just worried about you."
Chi Yanzhou: "There are steamed buns in the insulated box. Take some and eat them yourself."
Xia Yuhuan agreed and didn't bother him anymore, obediently taking the steamed buns from the insulated box to eat.
"By the way, there's a family banquet at the Chi family's house tonight. Dad's going to make a move against Master Shi. We need to go to the banquet to stabilize the situation," Chi Yanzhou said.
Xia Yuhuan was surprised: "They've made their move so quickly?"
“Yes, we have all the key evidence. There’s no need to drag it out and risk things getting complicated,” Chi Yanzhou said.
Xia Yuhuan replied, "Okay."
"Then I'll go back later and make sure I get a good rest so I'll have the energy to deal with things tonight."
"Um."
Xia Yuhuan was in a good mood when she learned that she was going to make a move on Master Shi that night.
The culprit who caused the original owner's tragic death is finally going to pay the price, and she is naturally happy.
After returning home, Xia Yuhuan went upstairs to wash up quickly and then went to bed.
When she was sleeping, Chi Yanzhou didn't disturb her; he went about his own business.
Before he left, he specifically instructed Aunt Wang that if Xia Yuhuan didn't get up for lunch, she should not disturb her and should let her sleep until she woke up naturally.
Xia Yuhuan slept until 5 p.m. before waking up.
She opened her eyes and saw Chi Yanzhou sitting to her side.
"Are you awake?" Chi Yanzhou asked.
"Hmm, I'm awake," Xia Yuhuan said, stretching.
Chi Yanzhou leaned closer and stared at her.
Xia Yuhuan paused, then awkwardly tugged at the corner of her mouth.
"What's wrong? Is something the problem?"
Chi Yanzhou smiled and shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with it. I was just checking if there were any bloodshot eyes in your eyes, to see if you really slept well."
Xia Yuhuan rolled her eyes at him, annoyed.
"You slept from morning till afternoon, how could you not have slept well?"
Chi Yanzhou said, "Then get up quickly, wash up, and I'll take you downstairs to get something to eat."
Xia Yuhuan agreed.
When Xia Yuhuan finished tidying up and came downstairs, Chi Yanzhou had already placed the food on the table.
"Isn't tonight a family dinner? There will be food then, why did you prepare so much for me?"
Her understanding of eating something really is just eating a little bit, enough to fill her stomach and not make her feel ravenous.
Unexpectedly, Chi Yanzhou prepared a proper meal for her.
"I probably won't have much of an appetite for the family dinner tonight, so I might as well eat now to avoid feeling nauseous later."
Xia Yuhuan thought about it and realized that it made sense. Who knew what kind of trouble would ensue tonight? It was better to eat well now.
That being said, Xia Yuhuan had only been awake for a short time and didn't have a very good appetite, so she didn't eat much.
...
On the other side, at Chi Ruide's house.
"Sir, things seem a bit off these past few days. Do you think we should inquire about what the higher-ups are up to?"
Chi Rui-de frowned: "What's wrong with it?"
He now works behind the scenes and does not participate in daily operations, relying mostly on reports from his subordinates to judge the situation and direction.
He would naturally take it seriously when his subordinates said something was wrong.
My subordinate mentioned two problems that have recently come up.
After hearing this, Chi Ruide felt that it seemed reasonable, but there was something strange about it.
So he said, "I'll inquire about it later. You just focus on doing what you're supposed to do and don't panic."
"Yes, are you still going to the Chi family banquet tonight?"
“Go ahead, that old man called me a few days ago. If I don’t go, he’ll be unhappy and I’ll have to spend more time coaxing him, which will be a hassle.”
When Chi Ruide mentioned Old Master Chi, he was full of disdain.
I wonder if Grandpa Chi will be furious if he sees him like this?
...
Not long after they finished eating, Chi Yanzhou took Xia Yuhuan to the Chi family's old house.
When they arrived at the Chi family's old residence, most of the people attending the family banquet were still Chi Ruide's descendants. The people from their side were just their family and their second uncle's family.
Grandpa Chi now dislikes Xia Yuhuan.
Even glancing at it is too much of a hassle.
Therefore, even though he valued his eldest grandson Chi Yanzhou highly and talked to Chi Yanzhou, he would not spare a single glance for Xia Yuhuan.
Xia Yuhuan accepted this situation well.
I didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
Even if Grandpa Chi really tried to talk to her, she would find it annoying.
If you can ignore them, then ignore them.
