Chapter 80 She forced her to leave
"Bingqian asked me to stay here and wait for him."
She brought out Ji Bingqian's name like a shield.
Sure enough, when the maid heard the word Bingqian, the formal expression on her face moved slightly, and she didn't say another word to persuade him.
She just bowed again, her attitude still respectful.
"Okay, Miss Xu, I'll tell the lady right away."
After saying that, the maid turned and left, her footsteps disappearing at the end of the corridor.
The door was closed again. Xu Yueqing leaned against the door panel and found that his palms were already sweating.
That brief confrontation just now was more tiring than doing experiments all night long.
She also understood a little why Ji Bingqian said that this family was very complicated.
Xu Yueqing stood at the door and realized that a thin layer of sweat had appeared on his palms.
This is more than just complicated.
This is clearly a battlefield without the smoke of gunpowder.
Before I could fully exhale the breath I had just let out, a slightly hoarse but cold female voice sounded faintly from the door panel.
"No."
"Since I can't invite you, I'll just come here myself."
The sound was not loud, but it was like a poisoned awl, piercing Xu Yueqing's eardrum accurately.
She froze.
Li Qingzhi appeared at the corner of the stairs.
She changed into a dark green cheongsam, with a cashmere shawl draped over it, and her hair was combed meticulously.
Except for her still pale face, she had regained the aloof demeanor of a noble lady.
Xu Yueqing was the first to speak politely.
"lady."
Li Qingzhi didn't respond.
Her cold eyes looked at Xu Yueqing from head to toe, as if she was examining a piece of merchandise.
After a while, the corners of her mouth curled up in a very faint arc, which was hard to tell whether it was ridicule or satisfaction.
"She is indeed a beauty."
She said calmly, without emotion or emotion in her voice, "It's much better looking than that one."
that?
Which one?
Xu Yueqing was confused when she heard Li Qingzhi's voice again, but this time, it sounded like ice.
"I just don't know," she leaned forward slightly, moved closer, and stared at Xu Yueqing with her eyes, "Is this person's heart as vicious as that person's?"
Who is that person?
Xu Yueqing was completely confused by her incoherent words, and his mind went blank.
The next second, without any warning...
“Bang!”
There was a crisp sound, fierce and heavy.
Li Qingzhi slapped Xu Yueqing hard on the face.
The force was so great that she stumbled to the side and slammed her head against the cold wall.
Xu Yueqing's head buzzed, and her cheeks became red and swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was burning with pain, and in the end, it was even numb.
Li Qingzhi looked at her in such a miserable state, as if she was finally satisfied, and a cruel arc appeared at the corner of her cold lips.
"Xu Yueqing?"
She uttered these three words.
The sound was not loud, but it was like a needle, instantly piercing the buzzing in Xu Yueqing's ears.
She raised her head, her vision still a little blurry, and she could barely focus on the face in front of her that was delicately made up but full of harshness.
"I hope," Li Qingzhi admired her pain and spoke each word with clarity, "this is the last time I see you in the old house."
Xu Yueqing's pupils shrank suddenly.
Li Qingzhi's more oppressive words followed.
"Stay away from my son."
Xu Yueqing's heart was in a mess. She felt her lips move, but she couldn't utter a word.
Li Qingzhi obviously didn't have the patience to give her an explanation. She took a step forward, and the cold fragrance almost swallowed Xu Yueqing whole.
