Chapter 16: Using "I just love her."
At first, Qi Xunsheng always felt that he was well prepared. Although the party was not unique, it was quite standard, the food was good and the atmosphere was great.
But all this was shattered the moment Qi Zhao arrived.
Because of Qi Zhao's arrival, everything in front of him looked very cheap.
She thought she should find more people to make the scene more refined, otherwise Qi Zhao would look out of place at the party.
"Hurry up, light board." Shan Xianmin reminded her.
This is the only special thing.
Before Qi Zhao came, neither of them took out the light board, for fear that it would be embarrassing if Qi Zhao didn't show up. Now that he was here, they naturally had nothing to be afraid of, so they took out the light board and hung it high.
The two of them worked for a while before making the whole garden look brighter and more beautiful.
It turned out to be a party arranged for her, and her heart, which had been frozen for thousands of years, melted at this moment.
Qi Zhao curved his lips and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."
Although Qi Xunsheng thought the smile was pretty, he couldn't help but feel scared after looking at it for a long time.
Maybe he was guilty and afraid that Qi Zhao would find out the truth.
Or maybe he had seen Qi Zhao's sneer for too long and was not used to her gentle smile.
Shan Xianmin excitedly pulled a firework, which exploded in the sky with a bang, and pushed the person next to her: "She's been here for so long, you should introduce her to everyone."
"Let me introduce to you all, this is Qi Zhao, my..." Qi Xunsheng rolled his eyes, looking at Qi Zhao's gentle features, and was about to say he was a good friend.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a vehicle outside the door. Perhaps the vehicle was speeding and stopped suddenly, causing a burst of exhaust fumes and noise.
Everyone looked out the door at the same time.
The one leading the way was Su Jing, whose voice arrived before her.
"There are too many scammers these days. Anyone can use Qi Zhao's name to cheat people. Is Qi Zhao someone like you capable of hiring?"
"Yeah! Qi Zhao must be going to Jingjing's party. Some people are really shameless."
Qi Xunsheng had heard this voice before. It was made by Shen Linlin, who had been with Su Jing for many years.
All I can say is that Su Jing has lived a good life under the protection of her family over the years, but she is not as smart as others, and is stupid and arrogant.
The prerequisite for a person to be proud and complacent should be to first understand the other party's situation and strength.
Instead of being sarcastic before seeing clearly what is happening in the garden.
The opponent was too stupid and she didn't need to take any action at all.
Even if she wasn't there, Qi Zhao would definitely not like someone like Su Jing.
However, no matter who Qi Zhao got involved with, none of them were as close to her as could make Su Jing angry.
Qi Xunsheng has also entered the game personally.
"Qi Xunsheng, you've loved lying since you were little. This time you've offended me, you're..."
The arrogant words came to an abrupt end.
Su Jing's eyes moved between the two of them, and the people who came in behind her all shut up and became quiet.
Su Jing didn't want to believe that the two people standing next to each other were really as close as the news said, so she asked foolishly, "Qi Zhao, you are just passing by here, right?"
Qi Zhao didn't recognize the person in front of him and looked confused.
The people present were not stupid. They were gentle as water to Qi Xunsheng in the last second, and cold to Su Jing in the next second. It didn't seem like they knew the latter at all.
It was not like what Su Jing said. Qi Zhao accepted her invitation and went to Lu Qinglian's birthday party specifically.
Moreover, the last photo that was circulated only showed Qi Zhao sitting in the car in front of the Su family's door. No one took a photo of Qi Zhao entering the Su family.
But now it is a fact that Qi Zhao and Qi Xunsheng have a close relationship, and it is obvious who is lying.
"No, you're lying," Su Jing began to talk nonsense, refusing to believe that Qi Zhao didn't recognize her. "Last time it was my mother's birthday, I sent you an invitation. You came, didn't you forget?"
After this person's crazy self-introduction, Qi Zhao finally understood who Su Jing was. However, the last time she just woke up, the person she communicated with said she was Qi Xunsheng's mother, so she went to see.
Although he didn't see Qi Xunsheng, he unexpectedly sensed that she was haunted by the nightmare of old things, so he had to enter her dream to save her.
Since Su Jing claimed that it was her mother's birthday, she must be Qi Xunsheng's stepsister. Qi Zhao had a little understanding of the Su family's situation. After years of sleep, she couldn't intervene. The creatures she arranged could only ensure that Qi Xunsheng was alive and well.
The strangeness in Qi Zhao's eyes made Su Jing feel sad.
She fell deeply in love with Qi Zhao after only one look at her, and has been hoping to be close to her when she grows up.
I didn’t expect Qi Zhao didn’t recognize her.
She actually stood with the person she hated.
At this moment, Su Jing was filled with jealousy and wished to destroy Qi Xunsheng.
Seeing the jealousy in Su Jing's eyes, Qi Xunsheng felt happy.
Over the years, Su Jing has been well protected. When Su Yun was at home, she always tried every means to bully her. She was the only one who envied and jealous of Su Jing. She still remembered that Su Jing took advantage of her young age to smash Qi Yushuang's portrait and tear up the clothes left by Qi Yushuang.
Even the gifts Qi Yushuang gave her, she kept the ones she liked and threw away the ones she didn't like, without giving her any thought at all.
Pretending to be weak caused her to be punished by Su Tongming.
She was locked in the room and starved day after day.
On the reunion night, the whole family except her was having a great time, completely ignoring her life or death.
At that time, she was wondering why they were the happy ones.
Time has passed, but Qi Xunsheng can still feel that hatred when he thinks of it again.
It wasn't enough, not enough compared to what she had been through.
Not only did she want to make Su Jing uncomfortable, she also wanted Su Tongming, Lu Qinglian and Su Yun to pay the price.
She wants to get back everything that has hurt her, for herself and for her mother.
The sudden feeling of hostility made Qi Zhao's heart tremble.
She hadn't felt such hatred in a long time.
She turned her head to look at Qi Xunsheng, only to see him smiling, as if the hostility didn't come from her. But Qi Zhao could sense a familiarity; she had felt it in Qi Xunsheng a thousand years ago.
"What are you talking about?" Qi Xunsheng blinked and smiled innocently, "Sister, you came at the right time. Let me introduce you, this person——"
She tilted her head and smiled softly: "It's my girlfriend, Qi Zhao."
"Wow--"
“Is this true—”
"I don't believe it! How is it possible!"
"Qi Zhao is a well-known figure in Luocheng. How could he possibly be with someone like Qi Xunsheng—"
"Oh my God, my dream is shattered! Qi Zhao, that's Qi Zhao!"
"Qi Zhao Qi Zhao, say something!"
There was a sudden cry of grief at the scene.
Qi Zhao herself is mysterious, but her business empire has been running all the time. No one in Luocheng would not want to curry favor with her and get close to her. However, she has rarely appeared in all these years. Rumor has it that she is frail and sick and has been recuperating, so no one dares to disturb her.
But this doesn’t mean that no one has any thoughts about her!
What's the best way to curry favor? It must be marriage!
Qi Zhao pursed his lips and said nothing. At this moment, silence was the best answer.
Su Jing completely collapsed, not caring about her image at all. She stepped forward and pointed at her, cursing: "Qi Xunsheng! You have always loved snatching my things since you were little. You must have known that I like Qi Zhao, so you deliberately snatched things from me! You are so vicious!"
"Who likes to steal other people's things? I've been kicked out of the house. What can I steal from you? It's you who got it," Qi Xunsheng murmured softly, looking aggrieved. "I'm sorry, sister. You asked for toys, a house, and even my mother's inheritance. I gave them all to you, but Qi Zhao can't. I really like her."
Shan Xianmin, who was watching in amazement, just wanted to give her a thumbs up and admit at this moment that her acting skills were better than his.
Qi Zhao's expression relaxed slightly and she pulled the corners of her lips. If she didn't know these tricks at this moment, she would seem stupid.
It's nothing more than a tool for sisters to fight over.
Su Jing refused to accept it. She had never suffered such an injustice since she was a child. She couldn't help but shed tears and said to Qi Zhao fiercely, "Qi Zhao, don't believe her lies. She knew I liked you, so she deliberately took you away! She doesn't like you at all!"
Qi Zhao's eyes flickered slightly.
This sentence was particularly familiar. She had heard such words a thousand years ago. The situation at that time was also stalemate. The delicate princess condescended to come to her manor.
——"Do you think Xiyue loves you? No, she only approaches you for me."
——"She doesn't love you at all."
…
Qi Zhao lowered his eyes. Su Jing thought she had convinced her, and her voice unconsciously rose a lot. Then she reminded her -
"She's just using you! As long as I don't like you, she won't like you either. She just likes to snatch things from me. Qi Zhao only has me..."
"So what?" Qi Zhao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke. She curved her lips, but her smile was extremely cold. "I just love her, that's all."
Thousands of years have passed, and now she is just repeating what she said back then.
So what?
Even until his death, Xun Sheng died in her arms.
What does it matter whether you love her or not?
"You!" Su Jing, who had been crying silently, was unable to stop herself from crying after hearing these words.
She never expected that Qi Zhao would say such affectionate words, and she never expected that he would say them to someone she hated.
Not to mention Su Jing, even Qi Xunsheng, who was immersed in her acting, had a brain freeze and was slow to react. It was only after Shan Xianmin pushed her that she came back to her senses.
She thought she understood Qi Zhao.
The time they spent together during these days made her realize that Qi Zhao was not a kind person.
When she thought about the unfair treatment she had suffered in the past and the things that were taken away by Su Jing, hatred made her forget Qi Zhao's feelings for a moment.
She thought that even if Qi Zhao found out and hated her, it didn't matter.
She just wanted Su Jing to feel uncomfortable, to feel the heartache even for just one minute.
It's impossible for someone as smart as Qi Zhao not to notice it.
But what she didn't expect was that Qi Zhao didn't turn hostile, but instead accompanied her to continue the play.
Compared to what she said, Qi Zhao's words were more hurtful.
Su Jing was so angry that she said nothing, covered her face and turned around and ran away.
Except for Shen Linlin, no one followed her out. Everyone's eyes were on Qi Zhao, eager to talk to her.
Qi Xunsheng gave Shan Xianmin a look, and the other party immediately understood that they had a plan B for their party.
Shan Xianmin took out the fireworks and pulled them hard, attracting everyone's attention——
"It's better to come at the right time than to come in time. Since you're here, why not donate some money to our pet park!"
"Now donate money to improve your favorability. Anyone who understands will understand."
Shan Xianmin was not as bold as Qi Xunsheng to directly borrow Qi Zhao's name, but everyone present understood what he meant.
This idea was proposed by Shan Xianmin. Qi Xunsheng didn't have much savings. She had the design, but she wanted to turn the ground floor of the villa into a pet park for stray animals. She didn't have that much money, so Shan Xianmin suggested that if Qi Zhao came to the party, the attendees could contribute some money.
Anyway, we are all here to watch the fun. Meeting Qi Zhao is more important than these few things.
Shan Xianmin was busy making arrangements while Qi Xunsheng stood aside in a daze.
She didn't dare look back into Qi Zhao's eyes.
Qi Zhao said, don't look into her eyes when lying.
For a long time, until the noise in the garden died down and the crowds dwindled, she finally heard that voice, as cold as ice yet calm and composed.
"You used me."
