Chapter 130 Seducing Her
Jiang Zhizhi took a step back, looking at Bian Yucheng with some wariness: "It's nothing."
I saw her this morning; she was arrogant and domineering. Now she's all gentle and mild-mannered. Something about her doesn't seem right.
Bian Yucheng waved his hand: "You're going to deliver food to Zhou Xiye, right? Go quickly."
Jiang Zhizhi suspiciously walked around him, but after taking only a few steps, she heard Bian Yucheng speak up: "I acted impulsively this morning, I apologize to you."
"Need not."
Jiang Zhizhi tossed out two words without even turning her head.
If he truly acted impulsively without intention, an apology would be barely acceptable.
But Bian Yucheng's actions this morning were clearly deliberate harassment. Now that he's apologizing, who knows what kind of scheme he's hiding in his heart.
Bian Yucheng watched Jiang Zhizhi's departing figure, his eyes filled with gloom.
If Jiang Zhizhi is really her aunt Bian Suxi's daughter, then where is her aunt?
Bian Suxi was not the biological daughter of the Bian family; she was raised by the Bian family as an orphan.
Bian Yucheng remembered that twenty years ago, his third aunt, Wang Qinglan, and Bian Suxi had a very fierce argument. Wang Qinglan scolded Bian Suxi for being shameless and seducing his third uncle. At that time, Bian Suxi directly pointed a gun at Wang Qinglan's forehead, which scared Wang Qinglan into shutting up.
Later, Bian Suxi died in a fire.
That year, Bian Yucheng was twelve years old. He overheard many adults talking and realized that the fire was not an accident.
Instead, the whole family wanted Bian Suxi dead!
Only after she dies can they claim credit for what Bian Suxi's ancestors left behind, and only then can they openly move into the grand mansion left to her by her father.
Even though these things have now been confiscated, the Bian family's current status is all thanks to Bian Suxi's father's life and the money he left behind.
Bian Yucheng withdrew his gaze. He came to Ganbei to use Jiang Zhizhi to lure out Bian Suxi, who might still be alive, and then kill them both completely.
Only when they are all dead can the Bian family's sordid past be completely buried.
...
Jiang Zhizhi had just entered the ward with her meal when Shang Xingzhou arrived with a bunch of things: milk powder, malted milk powder, eggs, and a piece of meat, all mixed up in a large net bag.
"Brother-in-law, this is for you to improve your health."
As if seeking credit, Shang Xingzhou took out all the things: "If you're hungry, make some milk powder and add some malted milk powder. There's also meat; eating meat will help you recover faster from an injury."
Jiang Zhizhi was both amused and exasperated: "Why are you wasting money again? Don't you know how to live? Buying so much at once."
Shang Xingzhou chuckled, "It's alright, I'm going back the day after tomorrow, so it's only right that I buy more."
He didn't know what to buy when visiting a patient, but he thought of how when relatives came to visit his mother, some brought canned food, some brought milk powder, and some brought an old hen.
Considering that Jiang Zhizhi already had chickens and ducks outside her house, he decided to buy two catties of meat and other things as well, thinking that this way he couldn't go wrong.
Zhou Xiye had a bit of a headache. This child's unpredictable behavior was very similar to Jiang Zhizhi's: "I appreciate the sentiment, but you can take everything back and return it later."
Shang Xingzhou objected: "That won't do. It's written on the counter that once a product is sold, it cannot be returned or exchanged. Besides, you're my brother-in-law. I can't come to see you empty-handed."
As she spoke, she looked at Jiang Zhizhi and said, "Sister, say something. Do you think what I said is right? I think it's appropriate for my brother-in-law to buy some things."
Jiang Zhizhi also felt that there were too many things: "It should be, but it's really not right for you to spend so much money. This is suspicious of you giving gifts."
Shang Xingzhou glared: "How could that be? Don't get the wrong idea. I'm not taking these things to pull strings. I'll get into my brother-in-law's unit through my own merit."
Seeing Shang Xingzhou's flushed face as he explained, Jiang Zhizhi smiled and said, "Alright, fine, just accept it. Don't do it again next time. Come on, go wash your hands and let's eat together."
Shang Xingzhou then happily ran to wash his hands.
Li Zhuo watched from the sidelines with some surprise; the three of them really did seem like a family.
...
After dinner, Li Zhuo went back to rest first, while Shang Xingzhou pestered Zhou Xiye for a lot of questions about the border. Seeing that it was getting late, he reluctantly left.
Zhou Xiye felt that the ward became much quieter after Shang Xingzhou left.
She pinched her brow, feeling a real headache coming on. How could there be such a restless child?
Seeing Zhou Xiye's expression, Jiang Zhizhi couldn't help but laugh: "Shang Xingzhou is actually quite good. He's just a bit noisy because he's young, but he's very smart and not spoiled at all."
After saying that, she went to get a basin of water and came back to wash Zhou Xiye's face and hands.
Zhou Xiye wanted to do it himself, but Jiang Zhizhi stopped him, saying, "If you don't let me do it, I'll make a scene."
Zhou Xiye could only helplessly reach out and ask her to wash his hands and face.
Fearing she might try to touch him, he changed the subject: "I might have to go back to Beijing to recover from my injuries."
Sure enough, Jiang Zhizhi's attention was instantly drawn to him, and she asked curiously while wiping his fingers, "Why?"
Zhou Xiye explained: "Political Commissar Li came by this afternoon. I went back to recuperate and attend a meeting. After I recover, I will go directly from Beijing to Yunnan."
Jiang Zhizhi exclaimed, "When are we leaving?"
"In a couple of days, when you have some free time, pack your things. The political commissar has arranged a school spot for you. Think about it and decide what you want to study."
Fearing that Jiang Zhizhi might not want to go to school, Zhou Xiye softened his tone and advised her, "At your age, you should study more so that you can do what you want to do in the future."
Jiang Zhizhi glared at him and squeezed his palm: "Don't talk to me in that fatherly tone, making me sound like your daughter."
Zhou Xiye said helplessly, "You're still so young, I'm afraid you'll act impulsively..."
Jiang Zhizhi reached out and lightly pressed her fingertips against his lips: "I've already thought about going to school. Don't always say I'm too young. Don't you know whether I'm young or not?"
Zhou Xiye remained silent; she was just a petty hooligan.
...
Seeing that Zhou Xiye hadn't asked about the traditional Chinese medicine, Jiang Zhizhi was completely relieved and went to the pharmacy to get the medicine herself.
Li Zhuo was busy with something, and after drinking the medicine at the pharmacy, he left in a hurry.
Jiang Zhizhi took the medicine to Zhou Xiye, muttering as she handed it to him, "Li Zhuo is so busy today. He came over for a bit at noon, and then went out again just now."
Zhou Xiye didn't say anything, picked up the bowl and drank all the medicine soup in one gulp.
I casually placed the medicine bowl on the bedside table.
Jiang Zhizhi was surprised to see that Zhou Xiye hadn't even frowned: "Isn't it bitter?"
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Xiye stretched out his long arm, pulled her in front of him, and kissed her lips accurately.
Jiang Zhizhi was taken aback, her lips parted slightly, giving Zhou Xiye an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
The tip of the tongue was hooked, then released.
Her mouth instantly filled with bitterness, making her want to push him away unhappily.
Zhou Xiye didn't give her that chance; he held the back of her head and deepened the kiss...
Bian Xiaoxiao stood outside the door with a lunchbox in her hand, staring inside in disbelief...
