Chapter 706 Zhong Yi, You Owe Me an Explanation
"Haha..."
Huo Sijiao laughed so hard that she hiccupped, and tried her best to embarrass Lu Yingxue.
Lu Yingxue glared at her, poured a bowl of chicken soup, handed it to Zhong Yi, and said, "Then drink some chicken soup. You're weak and it's just right to replenish your body... If it's not convenient for you, let me feed you."
Zhong Yi didn't even want to put on a show with her.
He just turned his head and said, "If you're okay, go back."
Lu Yingxue's expression froze. "How can I let you stay here alone? You've been doing business with so much ulterior motives over the years, and I'm really worried."
Wan Jiang said softly, "Miss Lu, I'm here to accompany the young master. Don't worry. You look very tired. Why don't you go home and rest?"
Lu Yingxue was annoyed: "I..."
Wan Jiang knew that Zhong Yi didn't want to see Lu Yingxue at all, so he tried to persuade her, "Ms. Lu, I'm sure you've investigated what happened last night through your own channels. Young Master Zhong is very weak and needs to rest."
Lu Yingxue's face gradually turned cold and she was filled with resentment.
"Wan Jiang, do you mean I'm noisy?"
"I dare not."
Wan Jiang didn't dare to say that to Lu Yingxue, so he just gently reminded her, "But you did say a lot after you came in."
When Lu Yingxue heard Wan Jiang's words, her face fell.
She looked at Zhong Yi, but found that Zhong Yi said nothing and didn't say a word for her.
It was obvious that Zhong Yi also wanted to drive her away!
Lu Yingxue was filled with resentment, thinking that Qiao Xi must be there, and Zhong Yi wanted to show her devotion!
But he already has Ye Ying by his side!
Why are you pretending to be so affectionate!
News came from Zhong Lingxiao that it was Qiao Xi who saved Zhong Yi last night, and Zhong Yi would have died!
Zhong Yi likes Qiao Xi more, right?
Lu Yingxue was furious, but she managed to save some face in the end.
She stood up straight and said, "In that case, I'll go back. You should take good care of yourself and don't worry the old man and the family. I will clear up the rumors outside for you. I'll see you again tomorrow..."
She felt so stuffy in her chest that she left the ward without even taking the thermos!
After Lu Yingxue left, the ward became much quieter.
Zhong Yi's gaze swept over Huo Sijiao and Lao Chen very slowly, with no warmth in his eyes.
Huo Sijiao noticed that the atmosphere was a little unusual, pursed her lips and said unnaturally: "Sister-in-law, I'll wait for you outside."
"Madam, I'm going out first."
Old Chen and Huo Sijiao left the ward one after another.
He also closed the door.
Huo Sijiao stood in the corridor and asked in a low voice, "Old Chen, you just looked at me and made my hair stand on end. Tell me the truth. What is the relationship between that Mr. Zhong and my sister-in-law?"
It was obvious that Master Zhong had something to say to his sister-in-law. The vague connection between the two of them seemed like a world that outsiders could not break into.
It made her feel a sense of crisis on her brother's behalf.
"Didn't Young Master Sun tell you?"
Old Chen thought that since Sun Weimeng had such a good relationship with the eldest lady, he would definitely tell her.
I didn't expect that the young lady knew nothing.
When Huo Sijiao heard this, her pretty face was filled with shock and anger: "What! Even Sun Weimeng knows this secret, but you didn't tell me? You are all on guard against me and treat me as an outsider, right?"
What qualifications does Sun Weimeng have!
"Old Chen, if you don't tell me today, I'll...I'll go find a piece of tofu and kill myself! Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go!"
Old Chen thought that this was not a particularly big secret. Seeing the increasingly close relationship between Master Zhong and the Huo family, the eldest lady would know it sooner or later.
So he lowered his voice and said, "I can tell you, but you can't tell anyone outside."
"OK."
Huo Sijiao listened attentively.
Old Chen whispered something in her ear.
Huo Sijiao took a deep breath and turned around to rush into the ward.
Old Chen quickly grabbed her!
"Miss, you can't go in!"
Huo Sijiao looked anxious, but didn't dare to make any loud noise.
He could only blush and whisper, "That's my sister-in-law's childhood sweetheart who died long ago! Now that the childhood sweethearts have recognized each other, I have to go and keep an eye on them!"
It's obvious that Mr. Zhong is coveting my sister-in-law!
No wonder he created opportunities to get close to his sister-in-law again and again.
It turns out that this had been planned for a long time when we were in Haicheng!
Damn it!
Sun Weimeng was hesitant when he called, and he jumped up and down when he heard that his sister-in-law was going to visit the patient!
No wonder my brother is jealous, he has to drink this bottle of vinegar!
"Don't worry, Miss. There are three people in the room."
"Wan Jiang is his man!"
"Uh... Mr. Zhong is seriously injured and can't even get out of bed. Let's wait outside. You have to believe that the young lady knows her limits. She has never done anything inappropriate."
When Huo Sijiao heard this, she turned off the engine with a bitter face.
She squatted on the corridor, staring at the door with deep hatred.
She almost wanted to poke a hole in the ward door. If she heard any strange noises inside, she would rush in to protect her sister-in-law's innocence.
…
In the ward.
Wan Jiang moved a chair and placed it next to Qiao Xi and said, "Miss Qiao, please sit down for a while. I'll pour you a glass of water, or would you prefer tea?"
"Warm water is fine."
"OK."
Wan Jiang took a clean glass, poured a glass of warm water for Qiao Xi and handed it to her.
"Thanks."
Qiao Xi held the glass in both hands and sat on the chair beside the bed.
She took a sip of warm water, not knowing where to start.
There are so many things on my mind, including anger, resentment, doubt, heartache, regret and melancholy.
"Wanjiang."
Zhong Yi patted his chest, coughed a few times, and said, "Pour out that chicken soup. It smells too greasy and makes me sick."
"yes."
Wan Jiang took the chicken soup that Lu Yingxue brought to the inner bathroom.
Zhong Yi's fingers gently pulled the corner of the quilt, and the lie that had been told for so long was suddenly exposed.
Now that she has calmed down, she doesn't know how to calm the anger in her heart.
For a moment, the room was too quiet.
No one spoke first.
In the ward, sunlight shines through the glass onto the ground.
Such a winter day, such warm sunlight.
It always reminds me of the past.
Those embarrassing, difficult, yet happy youth years.
After a long time, Qiao Xi spoke first.
She half-closed her eyes and whispered, "Why did you fake your death back then?"
Ayi is her first friend!
Only friend!
A friend she cherishes in her heart!
"When the hospital told me you were dead, I didn't believe it. Later, Grandpa Cheng held a funeral for you, and after cremation, there was only a small box. I always felt that you wouldn't lie to me, so I slowly admitted it."
Qiao Xi's heart tightened and the corners of her eyes turned red.
"It wasn't until today that I realized you weren't dead. Do you owe me an explanation?"
She raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes filled with moisture.
She hated being deceived and kept in the dark like a fool.
