Chapter 46 Don't get engaged to him, get engaged to me instead? [VIP]
Chaos erupted as the middle-aged man, who had been talking smugly, stood before Xia Xiaoqiao with a grim expression, his wine glass stained with blood.
The once elegant young master of the Xia family now had a long, bloody welt on his arm, which looked shocking.
No one can see how this happened.
When middle-aged men get excited while talking, they like to swirl their wine glasses around, and the glasses themselves are strangely sharp.
Xia Xiaoqiao clutched his injured arm. He was already a handsome and delicate man, but now, with his lips pale, he looked even more pitiful.
He seemed unaware that such a thing would happen, and in his panic, he first looked to Qinyu Town for help.
“Brother Yuzhen…”
This appearance...
Ziyu sighed. He didn't even need to think to know what the man beside him, who kept saying he loved him, would do next.
Sure enough, my tightly clenched hands relaxed for a moment.
Qin Yuzhen turned to look at Ziyu: "Yuyu, he..."
"Call an ambulance quickly."
Ziyu frowned slightly, looking worried: "We can't just watch him bleed like this, can we?"
“But,” Qin Yuzhen frowned, “today is our engagement banquet.”
Um?
Ziyu was somewhat surprised.
Judging from Qin Yuzhen's tone, does he not want to help Xia Xiaoqiao?
At this moment, Qin's mother, who was standing to the side, suddenly came over and said, "I called the security guards and asked them to take Xiao Qiao to the hospital."
Qin's mother said impatiently, "I told your father not to choose those sharp cups, but I don't know why he insisted on buying them! Now look what's happened, a perfectly good engagement banquet has turned into a bloodbath!"
The wealthier a family is, the more likely it is to be superstitious. When Qin's mother was young, she didn't really believe in these ghosts and gods, but as she got older, she became more and more obsessed with them.
She was even more convinced of the madness she witnessed in Qinyu Town during her dream.
Seeing that Xia Xiaoqiao almost ruined her son's engagement banquet, even though she had watched him grow up, she couldn't help but feel resentful.
Qin's mother shouted loudly, "Security! Where's the security guard?!"
A look of panic flashed in Xia Xiaoqiao's eyes.
He never expected that Qin's mother would interfere at this time.
He looked at Qin Yuzhen, who was also frowning, and Qin Yuzhen was looking at Ziyu with a troubled expression.
It seems that Qin Yuzhen cares more about Ziyu's opinion than Xia Xiaoqiao's.
how so?
Six years ago, if he had been injured, Qin Yuzhen would have been extremely worried. Even if it was a minor injury, Qin Yuzhen would have taken him to the hospital with a serious expression.
Now, he's so badly injured... and Qin Yuzhen is just frowning?
A sense of resentment welled up inside me.
It's only been six years... six years!
People used to say that the person Qin Yuzhen cared about most was himself, who had grown up with him since childhood. Qin Yuzhen's silly cousin also kept saying that Qin Yuzhen liked him and that they would be together. Even he thought that the person Qin Yuzhen liked had always been himself.
However, Qin Yuzhen was not good at expressing himself, and he cared more about his own artistic future than about Qin Yuzhen's interests.
Has Qinyu Town changed its mind in just six years?
Seeing the security guards approaching, Xia Xiaoqiao finally realized what was happening: "Don't touch me!"
The security guards stood there, unsure of whose advice to take.
Before Qin's mother could speak, Xia Xiaoqiao said to Qin Yuzhen, "Brother Yuzhen!"
His eyes pleaded: "I just want you to take me away."
As soon as he finished speaking, a wave of whispers broke out in the engagement banquet.
The people present were all from wealthy families of similar social standing, and they had all heard about the secrets of the Qin family. They never expected that one day they would actually get to hear about it.
The white moonlight asks Xiao Qin to take him to see a doctor for his injury in front of his current girlfriend. What's the difference between this request and a wedding robbery?
That's so exciting!
After the initial shock subsided, the guests returned to their original state.
It's only natural to enjoy gossip.
Even the wealthy are no exception.
When Qin's mother heard this, she almost exploded.
She had previously thought Xia Xiaoqiao was an obedient and well-behaved child, but who would have thought he would say such things in front of his own son?
What will Ziyu think when he hears this?!
I don't think much of it.
Looking at the familiar scene before him, Ziyu gently shook his head, as if it were expected.
Although he knew that as long as Xia Xiaoqiao appeared, no matter how distorted the plot became, it would be corrected, he still couldn't help but sigh when he saw Xia Xiaoqiao's familiar pitiful appearance.
In the previous playthrough, Ziyu was already tired of the plot where the scumbag seme wanted to spend time with the submissive uke, but the white moonlight suddenly appeared, and then he accidentally got splashed with red wine, sprained his ankle, got injured, and encountered some thugs, so that the scumbag seme had to leave the submissive uke to spend time with the white moonlight.
Qin Yuzhen said, "You must go to the hospital immediately."
Xia Xiaoqiao stepped closer: "It's an hour's drive from here to the nearest hospital..."
None of the people present were skilled at bandaging.
Only Qin Yuzhen himself, as the most charming scumbag seme, naturally learned various sword techniques, boxing and other hobbies when he was young, and had been injured before, so he also had some knowledge of bandaging wounds.
At this moment, he became the only person who could help Xia Xiaoqiao.
Ziyu thought that now, the engagement banquet was completely out of the question.
Qin Yuzhen was silent for a moment: "Ziyu, shall I have the security guards forcibly take him away?"
Ziyu: ?
Qin Yuzhen said in a low voice, "After all, this is our engagement banquet."
Qin's mother also said, "Xia Xiaoqiao really doesn't know how to read the room. Let the security guards take him away. Besides, can't this hotel find someone who knows how to bandage someone?"
?
Ziyu's eyes widened.
The plot deviation value is showing a red warning indicating that the data has exceeded the limit.
Ziyu hurriedly said, "They're all injured, how can I possibly continue without changing my expression?"
My plot deviation is about to explode and you still want to get engaged?! And this Qin's mother, didn't you hate me to death in the last playthrough?! Why are you suddenly so open-minded in this playthrough?!
Ziyu said anxiously, "The engagement banquet can be held tomorrow. You should go and stop his bleeding now."
Xia Xiaoqiao was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth to powder. Looking at the two people on stage who were showing affection as if no one else was around, she wished she could break them up immediately!
Qin Yuzhen reluctantly walked down the aisle.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, he came to stand in front of Xia Xiaoqiao.
He only softens his expression in front of Ziyu; in front of others, he remains arrogant.
Qin Yuzhen said coldly, "Come with me."
Watching Qin Yuzhen take Xia Xiaoqiao away in front of everyone, Ziyu knew that the plot would gradually revert back to normal, but she didn't know why.
Ziyu thought somewhat sullenly.
I felt a little unhappy.
Hasn't he already experienced the scenario of the scumbag seme getting together with the white moonlight and abandoning the masochistic uke many times?
Why am I so unhappy this time?
Qin's mother's face was ashen. In her opinion, the sooner her son and Ziyu got married, the better. Xia Xiaoqiao had ruined everything! But it was her daughter-in-law who had made her son leave, so she couldn't say anything.
Qin's mother blinked: "Ziyu, don't just stand there like an idiot! Hurry up and come with us!"
ah?
Qin's mother shoved Ziyu in exasperation: "Hurry up! How could you let Yuzhen and Xia Xiaoqiao be alone together? My son is gay, after all! They're all alone together, you better go!"
Ziyu was shocked.
Ziyu found it unbelievable.
Ziyu was forced out of the engagement banquet by Qin's mother.
The last thing Qin's mother left for Ziyu was, "Leave this place to me and your Uncle Qin!" and the security guard closed the banquet hall door.
Ziyu appeared dazed.
Why does he always feel like something's not quite right?
Qin Yuzhen led Xia Xiaoqiao to a private room, where hotel staff had already prepared the necessary items for bandaging.
Ziyu pursed her lips.
He knew he should stay here and wait for Qin Yuzhen to come and announce the end of the engagement.
But……
Ziyu lifted her foot and stealthily walked towards the private room.
Humans are naturally curious... He also wanted to know what those two people were going to say.
I was just curious.
Ziyu thought, I just want to know how the plot was brought back on track, I have no other thoughts.
*
As soon as he entered the private room, he heard Xia Xiaoqiao's familiar voice.
The soundproofing in this hotel is terrible.
Ziyu complained, then went over to join in.
Xia Xiaoqiao's voice.
"Brother Yuzhen, I'm begging you."
You shouldn't have done that.
Ziyu was surprised. This was the first time he had heard Qin Yuzhen speak in such a harsh tone. Even last week, when Qin Yuzhen disliked him being so eager to please, he had never used this tone.
Xia Xiaoqiao seemed to be hurt by the tone of the words, and her voice even sounded like she was about to cry.
"I had no idea that the man's glass would cut me!"
Qin Yuzhen chuckled: "You really don't know?"
Xia Xiaoqiao's eyes widened, and she said hurtfully, "Why do you think of me like that?"
Qin Yuzhen continued bandaging, his movements somewhat rough, causing Xia Xiaoqiao to hiss in pain.
"Today is my engagement party." Qin Yuzhen's voice was icy, and upon closer listening, there was even a hint of ruthlessness. "You ruined it."
Xia Xiaoqiao's eyes were red. It was as if he was seeing Qin Yuzhen for the first time. He was heartbroken, and at the same time, his hatred for Ziyu was growing stronger.
It must be that Ziyu said a lot of bad things about him to Qin Yuzhen! Otherwise, why would Qin Yuzhen treat him like that?
As long as Ziyu is driven away, Qin Yuzhen will definitely return to the old Yuzhen-ge... All the difficulties he is facing now will definitely be resolved...
He's the one who should have married Qin Yuzhen!
"Brother Yuzhen, I beg you, please help me!" Xia Xiaoqiao pleaded. "Only you can help me now!"
"If even you won't help me... I might as well die."
Qin Yuzhen paused, then slowly raised his eyes to look at Xia Xiaoqiao.
Xia Xiaoqiao bit her lower lip, looking utterly pitiful.
He said, "Brother Yuzhen, please consider our friendship since we grew up together, okay?"
Ziyu, who was hiding behind the door, pricked up his ears.
He vaguely realized that what Xia Xiaoqiao was about to say might be the key to turning the plot around.
Xia Xiaoqiao said, "Don't get engaged to him."
"Will you get engaged to me?"
Ziyu behind the door: Wow... this is so exciting?
As expected, the white moonlight is the white moonlight; she's just that confident in herself.
Qin Yuzhen seemed to have heard something amusing and suddenly burst out laughing.
What are you saying?
Seeing Qin Yuzhen smile, Xia Xiaoqiao felt more confident.
He knew that Qinyu Town was still the same as before.
As long as Qin Yuzhen is willing to help him, he can maintain his status as the young master of the Xia family.
After all, don't people say that she is Qin Yu Town's white moonlight? And Qin Yu Town has never refuted that, has it?
"Get engaged to me, Yuzhen-ge," Xia Xiaoqiao cried. "If you don't get engaged to me, I'll die! I really will die!"
Qin Yuzhen was quiet for a while, looking at his childhood friend. His crying appearance overlapped with the appearance of Xia Xiaoqiao begging him to marry her in his previous life.
—In her previous life, Xia Xiaoqiao was just like this, clutching his clothes and crying as she spoke.
"Brother Yuzhen, please marry me! Otherwise they'll kill me! I'll die! I really will die!"
A note from the author:
Actually, in his past life, President Qin was just too slow-witted and the forced control of the plot made him seem like a loser...
