The two arrived at the apartment door and rang the doorbell, but no one answered.
"Still not up?" Cui Nan asked, puzzled.
Zuo Cheng was about to call Cui Ziqi when he saw Cui Nan directly enter a password, and the door opened.
He stared wide-eyed at Cui Nan.
Cui Nan smiled and raised an eyebrow at Zuo Cheng, "This child's password is easy to guess."
As she spoke, she pushed the door open and went inside.
"Oh, Miss Cui!"
If we just barge in like this, Brother Qi will definitely be angry!
Cui Nan, however, did as she pleased. Upon entering the room, she did not see Cui Ziqi and went straight to the bedroom.
Zuo Cheng quickly stopped her, "Miss Cui, Brother Qi might not be up yet. He's grumpy when he wakes up. Let's come back to find him later."
He was terrified.
Xia Wan is sleeping inside. If Brother Qi finds out that he brought people to wake Xia Wan up, he'll skin him alive!
“I’m his aunt, what can he do to me even if he’s grumpy in the morning?”
Cui Nan shoved Zuo Cheng away.
Zuo Cheng was surprised by Cui Nan's strength and stumbled as he was pushed.
After regaining her footing, Cui Nan reached the bedroom door and opened it...
Cui Ziqi suddenly opened her eyes when the doorknob turned.
After calming down, Xia Wan nestled in his arms and drifted off to sleep.
The man suddenly made a large movement, reaching under the pillow as if he couldn't find what was supposed to be there. She was confused when she felt his body stiffen.
Before she could ask what was wrong, Cui Ziqi quickly sat up and shielded her behind him.
A pair of cold, reddish eyes, filled with intense killing intent, shot straight towards the doorway, meeting Cui Nan's smiling face as he stood there.
“Ziqi…”
"Get out!"
He roared angrily, his eyes unchanged, showing no respect for his elders whatsoever.
Not to mention Cui Nan, even Xia Wan, who was about to get up, was frightened by his sudden furious growl and hid under the covers behind him, trying to minimize her presence.
Cui Nan's smile froze on her face.
She quickly recovered and continued to tease him with a smile, "You little rascal, who are you telling to get lost? The sun's already high in the sky, get up quickly, I'm waiting for you in the living room."
The door was quickly closed.
Cui Ziqi turned her head and glanced at the sky outside the window, where dark clouds had settled.
Which sun shines on his butt?
Xia Wan sat up, squinting at his sour face, "Who was that woman who just called you 'brat'?"
"The old geezers of the Cui family."
Cui Ziqi looked down at her and said, "You can continue sleeping."
"I don't want to sleep anymore..."
“The injured person needs to rest.” Cui Ziqi pressed her back onto the bed, covered her with the blanket, and his icy gaze fell on her lifeless face. He threatened in a deep voice, “If I come in later and see you kicking off the blanket, you’ll see how you die!”
Xia Wan: ……
Zuo Cheng stood in the living room, looking at Cui Ziqi who came out of the master bedroom with a complicated expression.
What happened?
His eldest son spent the whole night in Xia Wan's bedroom?
Xia Wan is injured, surely the boss wouldn't be such a beast?
Cui Ziqi gave Zuo Cheng a cool glance, and Zuo Cheng immediately looked away, minimizing his presence.
Cui Nan sat on the sofa and greeted Cui Ziqi as if he were the host, saying, "Don't be shy, sit down."
Cui Ziqi sat on the single sofa next to her.
"What's up?"
Cui Nan still wore a gentle and loving smile. "Is it not okay for your aunt to come and see you?"
As if remembering something, Cui Ziqi turned her head and gave instructions to Zuo Cheng.
"Order me two breakfasts. If you haven't eaten, order one for yourself too. I'll reimburse you."
His phone is in his bedroom, and he doesn't have time to get it right now, so he can only ask Zuo Cheng for help.
Is this the breakfast place you usually eat at?
"Um."
"Okay!"
Zuo Cheng began ordering food with great interest.
That breakfast place charges four figures for a single person, he got to freeload today!
Cui Nan hadn't seen Xia Wan and assumed Cui Ziqi had ordered breakfast for her.
Feeling a surge of relief, she smiled and said, "I've already eaten, so you don't need to order my portion."
Cui Ziqi glanced at her indifferently, "This wasn't ordered for you."
Cui Nan: ?
Who ordered that for?
Who else lives in this apartment?
Cui Nan suddenly remembered what Cui Ying had said: Cui Ziqi is now infatuated with a woman.
Her eyes lit up as she looked at the doorway of the second bedroom. "Is that girl you were with here too? Is she up yet? Perfect, let me see what kind of woman has our Ziqi so infatuated with!"
She was excited, while Cui Ziqi looked at her with an even more gloomy expression.
"Don't bother her. What do you want?"
"I already told you I just came to see you. Your aunt just got back from abroad and hasn't had a chance to come see you yet."
"You've seen the person, you can leave now."
Cui Ziqi coldly gave him the order to leave.
"Don't be so cold." Cui Nan was immune to all poisons, and no matter how Cui Ziqi tried to drive her away, she wouldn't leave.
She took a bank card out of her bag and placed it on the coffee table.
“Here’s five million. Consider it pocket money from your aunt.”
Cui Ziqi glanced lightly at the dark yellow bank card, a hint of impatience already showing on his cold face.
"You're here because of Cui Xuzhe, right?"
When his secret was exposed, Cui Nan froze for a second.
She sighed, "Xu Ze caused you trouble first, so he deserved it. Of course, your aunt won't blame you. Your aunt just wants to advise you not to pour gasoline on people next time. That stuff is hard to wash off, and if it comes into contact with an open flame, the person could catch fire and burn to death. Then you'd have to bear the blame for a life..."
Cui Ziqi chuckled softly, her voice laced with obvious sarcasm.
He leaned lazily against the sofa, legs crossed, a hint of eccentricity in his sharp eyes.
"One life is a crime, two lives are a crime. Wait until the entire Cui family is dead at my hands before you try to persuade me. Maybe then I'll listen."
Cui Nan knew that Cui Ziqi hated everyone in the Cui family.
She frowned slightly and looked at Cui Ziqi with an almost pitying gaze. "I know you won't."
"You think you can escape, Auntie?"
The way he looked at her was devoid of any emotion, as cold-blooded as a beast without a soul or feelings.
Cui Nan's face turned slightly pale.
Does he hate everyone in the Cui family, including her?
Why?
She believes she has always been good to Cui Ziqi, so why does Cui Ziqi also hate her?
She was about to ask why.
Suddenly, as if sensing something, Cui Ziqi's coldness vanished, and she turned her head to look towards the bedroom door.
Cui Nan followed his gaze.
The bedroom door was slightly ajar, revealing a faint pink figure.
The next second, under Cui Ziqi's clenched teeth and furious gaze...
The bedroom door slowly opened.
A girl wearing pink Peter Pan collar pajamas and long curly hair peeked out, smiled sweetly at the people in the living room, and greeted them gently.
Good morning.
