Chapter 128 Domineering Wife Protection
Jiang Zhizhi and Bian Xiaoxiao turned around at the same time and saw a man standing there across the garden.
The man was around thirty years old, wore glasses, and was refined and handsome.
The moment Bian Xiaoxiao saw the man, she shook off Jiang Zhizhi's hand and ran over: "Second Brother, when did you get here?"
Bian Yucheng saw the handprint on Bian Xiaoxiao's face and his eyes flashed with anger: "What happened? Who bullied you?"
Bian Xiaoxiao instantly became weak, biting her lower lip, tears welling in her eyes as she turned to look at Jiang Zhizhi.
Bian Yucheng followed her gaze and, upon seeing Jiang Zhizhi's face, paused, frowned, and said sternly, "You hit her? Come here and apologize!"
Jiang Zhizhi looked at the sudden appearance of this lunatic and stood still: "It was her own hand that landed on her own face, what does it have to do with me?"
Bian Yucheng's face was extremely gloomy, and his voice rose several decibels: "Come here! I want you to apologize to her! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
Jiang Zhizhi was so angry she almost laughed. Where did this lunatic come from? He spoke with the tone of a domineering CEO.
Just as he was about to speak, someone else spoke in a low voice: "Bian Yucheng! How are you going to be so rude to her?"
Jiang Zhizhi turned around in surprise. Li Zhuo pushed Zhou Xiye over for some unknown reason. The wheelchair was under the shade of a tree, and the sunlight dappled through the trees, casting dappled shadows on Zhou Xiye, making his expression sharp.
Bian Yucheng was so focused on Jiang Zhizhi that he didn't notice when Zhou Xiye arrived.
When he spoke to Xiye, his tone immediately softened: "Xiye? You're here too? I just saw her hit Xiaoxiao. You know, Xiaoxiao is the only girl in our Bian family. I can't just watch her suffer."
Zhou Xiye had Li Zhuo push him over. Although he was in a wheelchair and had to look up at Bian Yucheng, his sharp aura surpassed that of Bian Yucheng by a thousand times.
At this moment, he looked up at Bian Yucheng, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
Bian Yucheng frowned: "Xiye, what do you mean? Could it be...?"
Zhou Xiye showed him no respect: "How could you not know her? Even if you don't, you don't know what happened, yet you're attacking a stranger. What a show of official arrogance."
Bian Yucheng looked embarrassed: "No, Xiye, look, the slap mark on Xiaoxiao's face is from her. What's wrong with apologizing for hitting someone?"
Zhou Xiye waved to Jiang Zhizhi, signaling her to come over.
Jiang Zhizhi was somewhat surprised, not knowing what Zhou Xiye was going to do, but she still obediently went over.
As soon as she walked over, Zhou Xiye took her left hand, which shocked her even more. Zhou Xiye actually took her hand in front of so many people.
Zhou Xiye held Jiang Zhizhi's fingertips, looked up at Bian Yucheng again, ignoring the embarrassment on his face: "I told her that some grievances don't need to be endured, and that she can retaliate on the spot if necessary."
Bian Xiaoxiao never expected that Zhou Xiye would be so ruthless.
He would even hold Jiang Zhizhi's hand in public, which made her feel worse than being slapped in public.
Her eyes were red as she looked at Zhou Xiye, her voice choked with emotion: "Xiye, you...you..."
Bian Yucheng's face was also extremely ugly: "Xiye, what do you mean by this?"
Zhou Xiye said calmly, "Aren't you going to stand up for Bian Xiaoxiao? Don't you understand what I mean?"
If you can support Bian Xiaoxiao, then I can support Jiang Zhizhi.
Bian Yucheng took a deep breath, trying to process his emotions: "Xiye, it's all a misunderstanding. I didn't expect her to be your lover. I thought she was a complete stranger."
Zhou Xiye didn't give him that face: "Just because someone is unrelated to you doesn't mean you can bully them at will. Bian Yucheng, this isn't Beijing, nor is it a place where you can run rampant."
After saying that, he let go of Jiang Zhizhi's hand, turned to look at Li Zhuo, and said, "Push me back to the ward, Zhizhi, let's go back."
The way he called out "Zhi Zhi" was extremely gentle, which made Jiang Zhizhi's heart flutter with joy. She never expected Zhou Xiye to be so domineering.
Bian Yucheng, looking grim, and Bian Xiaoxiao, unwilling to give up, followed Zhou Xiye back to the ward.
Bian Xiaoxiao watched Jiang Zhizhi and the others' retreating figures, feeling increasingly sad: "Second brother, I've caused you trouble."
Bian Yucheng waved his hand: "It has nothing to do with you. Zhou Xiye has been treating you like this lately."
He and Bian Xiaoxiao are cousins; his father is the older brother of Bian Xiaoxiao's father.
The brothers in the Bian family all had a good relationship. By the time it came to Bian Xiaoxiao's generation, they had mostly had sons, and Bian Xiaoxiao was the only daughter. Therefore, everyone was willing to dote on her.
Of course, Bian Yucheng was so fierce to Jiang Zhizhi just now not only to help Bian Xiaoxiao vent her anger, but also to embarrass Zhou Xiye.
Although Zhou Xiye was far away in the Northwest, his ability and momentum were unstoppable.
They were about the same age, so he was naturally jealous that Zhou Xiye was more popular than him.
He thought that Jiang Zhizhi was just a marriage partner that his family had arranged for him. It was difficult for him, but Zhou Xiye wouldn't take it to heart. However, he would still lose face.
Who would have thought that Zhou Xiye would show him no mercy whatsoever?
Bian Xiaoxiao touched her face, looking sad: "Second brother, I don't know what I did to upset Zhou Xiye. He wasn't like this before. Maybe Jiang Zhizhi said something to him?"
Bian Yucheng said with a dark face, "It's alright, I won't let anyone bully the Bian family. I came here because I heard from my third aunt that you're not doing well here. I'll talk to Zhou Xiye later."
...
Jiang Zhizhi happily entered the ward, helped Zhou Xiye onto the bed, and then diligently covered him with a blanket and massaged his shoulders.
Zhou Xiye said helplessly, "Sit down and rest for a while."
Jiang Zhizhi glanced at Li Zhuo: "I've prepared some medicine at the pharmacy. Could you go check on it for me and bring it over when it's ready?"
Li Zhuo immediately agreed and went out. Judging from how Zhou Xiye protected Jiang Zhizhi just now, the young couple had a very good relationship!
As soon as Li Zhuo left, Jiang Zhizhi quickly closed the door and then poured Zhou Xiye some water, saying, "Have some water. Do you want me to massage your legs?"
Zhou Xiye held a teacup in one hand and squeezed her hand with the other: "No need."
Jiang Zhizhi chuckled, "I didn't hit Bian Xiaoxiao on purpose. She raised her hand first, and I just let the slap that was supposed to land on my face land on hers instead."
Zhou Xiye nodded lightly: "I saw it. I won't suffer losses in the future. Fighting is not good, but you can't let yourself be wronged."
But she wondered to herself, what was Bian Yucheng's purpose in coming here? It was impossible for him to make a special trip just for Bian Xiaoxiao.
Jiang Zhizhi suddenly reached out and hugged his neck: "Zhou Xiye, you looked so cool just now, do you want a reward?"
Zhou Xiye didn't even need to think about what the reward she was talking about was, but he still seemed very interested and played along with her: "What reward?"
