Chapter 422: Master Zhong, I want to ask you to verify something
Qiao Xi looked at Aunt Qian and said, "I'm fine, you go ahead and do your work."
"good."
Aunt Qian left hesitantly.
Qiao Xi finally answered the phone. Aunt Chunhua spoke in a loud and powerful voice. She asked Qiao Xi with a smile what she wanted to talk about so early in the morning.
Qiao Xi said softly, "Aunt Chunhua, I remember the last time you went back to the village to pay your respects, you said you saw a young man you didn't recognize going up the mountain. Could you describe to me what he looked like?"
Aunt Chunhua said, "Hey, I can't really see her face with her sunglasses and mask on."
Aunt Chunhua said casually, "I talked to your husband about this, and he said that guy was your friend. What happened? Did you and your wife have a fight?"
friend.
Qiao Xi didn't expect Huo Xingzhou to know this as well. "Aunt Chunhua, what else does my husband ask you?"
Aunt Chunhua told Qiao Xi everything about her conversation with Huo Xingzhou.
Qiao Xi's head was buzzing.
She was sure that the man who went to Moon Village was Zhong Yi, who was injured and brought back to the city.
Why would a noble young man from the Zhong family in the imperial capital go to a remote place like Moon Village?
Qiao Xi's fingers were shaking.
"Aunt Chunhua, thank you for telling me this. Don't tell anyone who asks you in the future, including my husband."
"All right."
Although Aunt Chunhua didn't know why, she at least listened to the advice.
"Then I'll hang up now. I'll come back to see you next time I have the chance. If you need anything, just tell me and I'll bring it back to you from the city."
"How could I possibly want anything else from you? Those two silk quilts are already very valuable."
Qiao Xi hung up the phone, her heart beating irregularly.
The scene of Ayi's burial that year emerged in her mind. He had clearly been declared dead by the hospital, and Grandpa Cheng personally brought his ashes back to the village.
How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
Did Zhong Yi have another purpose for going to Moon Village? Or was he supposed to have a twin brother?
Qiao Xi didn't believe in ghosts or supernatural powers, so she could only explain everything in the most reasonable way. After all, a dead person suddenly appeared in front of her alive, that was a horror movie.
The person she trusted most was Grandpa Cheng. That serious and admirable old man would not lie to her.
But Qiao Xi would never have imagined that these two most unlikely people would stage such a big show, deceiving her and everyone in the village.
Qiao Xi's palms felt cold and she dialed Cheng Han's number with trembling hands.
The phone still shows that it is out of service area and has lost connection.
Why can’t I get in touch with you? Did something happen?
Qiao Xi opened WeChat and sent him a voice message.
"Grandpa Cheng, if you return to Haicheng, please give me a call. I have something very important to ask you."
She was unwilling to give up and continued to ask.
"Grandpa Cheng, does Ayi have a twin brother? I've never asked about his background. Is it true that both his parents died and he's an orphan?"
There was a sour taste in her throat.
"Please tell me the truth, is Ayi really dead?"
This is the limit of what the old-fashioned guy can imagine.
Qiao Xi suddenly stood up and shouted to Aunt Qian in the kitchen: "Aunt Qian, I'm going to the hospital."
When Aunt Qian rushed out of the kitchen, she saw her back. "Why are you in such a hurry? Is the hospital very busy recently? Hey, I didn't even have a good breakfast. Why hasn't the young master gotten up yet?"
Lao Chen is on standby.
He got up at four or five o'clock every day to exercise, and when he saw Qiao Xi, he drove her directly to the hospital.
Along the way, Qiao Xi held her cell phone tightly, her heart in a knot.
Rudely rushing to Zhongyi's hospital room, I'll see if he has that shallow scar on his right wrist. People are similar, and their names are the same, but it's impossible that even the location of the scar is the same.
As long as there is, it means...
"Old Chen, can you drive faster?"
"Young Madam, it's pretty fast. It's not rush hour yet. Do you have an important patient to see? I'll do my best."
Old Chen sped up a bit.
It was already seven o'clock when the car stopped in front of the hospital.
The hospital was much busier than other places at seven o'clock. Family members and patients who had been waiting for their turn were crowded inside and outside the lobby. Qiao Xi walked into the hospital and ran quickly towards the elevator.
After waiting for several elevators, I finally got one.
Her breathing was a little rapid, and she ran out as soon as the elevator door opened.
2205!
"Good morning, Dr. Qiao."
"Dr. Qiao, what happened that you're in such a hurry?"
"Hey, has Dr. Qiao had breakfast?"
Qiao Xi ran past them, her legs numb as she stopped in front of Ward 2205. She took a deep breath, trying to steady her breath, and raised her hand to knock on the door.
Footsteps were heard.
Wan Jiang gently opened the door.
When he saw Qiao Xi, he was stunned.
"Doctor Qiao, is the hospital open so early?" Wan Jiang saw that her cheeks were flushed, her breathing was unstable, and her expression was not as calm as usual.
Realized something.
"Wan Jiang, I want to see your Master Zhong."
"Doctor Qiao, our Young Master Zhong is the young master of the Zhong family after all. It's a bit rude of you to come over and ask to see him. After all, Mr. Huo always shows courtesy to our Young Master Zhong."
Secretly let them hide Zhong Shao in the trunk and be bullied by the chicken.
Qiao Xi's throat was choked by the cold air. She swallowed hard and said, "I have something I want to ask Master Zhong for confirmation."
"this……"
"Wan Jiang, let her in." The young man lying on the hospital bed was awake. He leaned on the thick pillow and looked towards the door of the ward.
"Okay, Master Zhong."
Wan Jiang made way and Qiao Xi walked in.
The ward was beautifully decorated, as if they were afraid that this wealthy young master would be wronged. Even the bed set was replaced with extremely expensive imported cotton, yarn-dyed jacquard and top-grade Egyptian cotton.
Qiao Xi had seen this set of high-end bedding before, so she recognized it at a glance.
He also changed into comfortable pajamas and no longer wore the uniform hospital gown.
At this moment, he was leaning there leisurely, looking at his mobile phone, with a men's watch on his exposed right wrist.
"Mrs. Huo, why did you come to the hospital to visit me so early? Is there something wrong? Wouldn't Huo Xingzhou mind?" He looked at her, his watery and affectionate eyes showing a faint smile.
He wasn't exactly cold towards others; even Xiang Mingzhu could get a smile from him. But Qiao Xi felt that while this man smiled on the surface, his heart was probably even colder than Huo Xingzhou's. He must have used some extraordinary means to climb from an illegitimate child to a high position.
If he was really the person she guessed, it should be...
"Mr. Zhong, I'm here to ask you for something very important. I hope you can help me. This is very important to me."
"you say."
His eyes never left his phone, as if there was something in it that particularly attracted him.
Qiao Xi's voice was restrained: "Could you please take off the watch on your right wrist and let me take a look!"
Ayi has a scar on his right wrist.
Those false guesses are useless, Qiao Xi wants to see it with his own eyes.
Wan Jiang on the side looked at Qiao Xi in disbelief, a storm already brewing in his mind. This Mrs. Huo was actually so smart and capable!
