Chapter 638 Qiao Xi is really angry
Qiao Xi took Huo Xingzhou's arm and walked into the small banquet hall, her eyes falling on Zhong Yi.
I didn't expect to see you twice in one day.
She said in a very light and distant voice: "Mr. Zhong."
Zhong Yi glanced at her without responding. Instead, he looked at Huo Xingzhou and said, "You took the initiative to come to my housewarming party, just to watch the fun. Now that you've seen enough, have you brought a gift?"
Huo Xingzhou took out a square box and handed it to him: "Congratulations on moving into a new house with Miss Lu."
Zhong Yi took the box with a sour face and opened it, saying, "You can't even say auspicious words, you can shut up."
Qiao Xi took a look at what was in his hand and saw what seemed to be a seal in the box.
Huo Xingzhou gave Zhong Yi a seal?
She frowned slightly, not knowing whether it was a private seal or an official seal. Were these two collaborating on another project?
Pop.
Zhong Yi closed the box and said, "Please take your seats."
Huo Xingzhou nodded slightly: "The show is great, I wonder if the food tastes up to that level."
Finished.
He pulled Qiao Xi towards the empty seat at the main table.
The servants have already changed the dishes.
Lu Yingxue and Zhong Yi sat in the middle seat. The other seats at the main table were occupied by some unfamiliar faces, except for one who was an old acquaintance of Qiao Xi.
It was Lu Yan sitting in a wheelchair.
The servant had just pushed him out of the lounge to sit at the table. Ever since the accident, he had never liked lively occasions.
However, Lu Yingxue and Lu Yan are cousins and have a good relationship.
It's normal to ask him to attend the housewarming party.
Lu Yan's face was gloomy, looking much colder than before. His eyes were also filled with an uncomfortable emotion. Qiao Xi glanced at him and looked away.
But when he saw his former enemy, Lu Yan was no longer so calm.
He practically stabbed the fork in his hand into the table, bending the handle.
Lu Yingxue is really amazing!
Even though she was humiliated by Zhong Yi, she was still willing to entertain the guests. Seeing this, some people felt even more sorry for her and wanted to fight Zhong Yi to the death!
This woman is really patient!
She was even serving food to Zhong Yi.
"This pineapple curry duck is the chef's innovative dish. You should try it. If you like it, invite them to come more often in the future." Lu Yingxue asked the servants to serve the dish in portions in front of everyone.
"You all try it."
Qiao Xi glanced at Zhong Yi and saw that he really didn't touch the pineapple curry duck.
Because Yi is allergic to pineapple.
He never eats pineapple.
Zhong Yi didn't eat it either. More and more details have proved the answer in her heart.
Qiao Xi lowered her head and took a bite of the sour pineapple. The taste, combined with the curry, became even stranger.
"Drink the soup first."
Huo Xingzhou served her a bowl of delicious mushroom chicken soup.
Qiao Xi nodded obediently.
"laugh."
Lu Yan laughed strangely, "Some people have arms but they're still useless. They might as well be useless."
He hated Xu Yunye and also hated Qiao Xi.
His right leg was disabled.
The endless suffering day and night tortured him to the point where he was no longer human, nor a ghost.
In such torture, he hated Qiao Xi and Xu Yunye even more.
I wish we could die together!
Qiao Xi glanced at him, rolled her eyes silently, and didn't argue with him.
Lu Yingxue looked at Qiao Xi and said, "Don't mind it. My cousin has been in a bad mood since he was injured, and he's not scolding you."
Qiao Xi said, "I didn't take it personally. It's Miss Lu who's making a fuss. Don't worry, I won't argue with an irritated patient."
"Who do you think is upset?" Lu Yan's face flushed and he stared at her.
Lu Yingxue pretended to warn: "Lu Yan, eat your meal well."
Lu Yan suppressed his temper, gritted his teeth, and looked at Qiao Xi's pretty face with a bloodthirsty look.
The hatred in his heart had swelled to the point of exploding, and he urgently needed a channel to vent it.
Lu Yingxue tried to smooth things over, saying, "We've arranged a little game after dinner, archery. I've also prepared a prize: a piece of spring-colored glass jadeite."
She had just finished speaking.
Qiao Xi put down her chopsticks and said, "Thank you for your hospitality. I'm full and I'll take my leave."
Huo Xingzhou's mouth curled up slightly. She was a little bit cute now that she had a little temper.
If others don't give her face, she won't show mercy to others.
He had barely touched his bowl and chopsticks. He took the napkin, wiped the corner of Qiao Xi's lips, and said, "Stop disturbing us. We'll take our leave first."
A man and a woman stood up, attracting many people's attention.
The smile on Lu Yingxue's lips faded: "We have prepared a little game, don't you want to play?"
"No, I can't play with you." Huo Xingzhou said lightly, "After all, Miss Lu's friends don't welcome us very much."
He glanced around casually, and those who had been talking bad about him behind his back lowered their heads silently.
Lu Yingxue maintained her outward politeness and said, "Then Zhong Yi and I will see you off."
Zhong Yi's delicate eyebrows were filled with displeasure. She stood up and walked out first.
Several people slowly walked out of the villa.
The lawn and garden outside were all brightly lit with headlights, making it as bright as day.
Old Chen stood not far from them, and he always felt that the atmosphere around these four people was weird. Although it seemed peaceful on the surface, there were actually undercurrents.
He shook his head. As an insider, what he saw was a complicated love triangle!
Old Chen unconsciously took another step closer and continued to watch the developments.
Qiao Xi's gaze fell on Zhong Yi, and the thought in her mind surged again.
But he still restrained himself and said, "Mr. Zhong, take care of yourself and don't overwork yourself. The medicine you took last time was very strong, and you need to rest for a while."
Zhong Yi raised his eyes and said, "Thank you for your concern."
Sudden.
A sharp cold light flashed.
Old Chen exclaimed, "Master and Madam, be careful!"
He quickly stepped forward and gave Qiao Xi a push.
Qiao Xi instinctively felt a sense of danger coming, she hugged Huo Xingzhou and rolled to the ground.
The arrow flew over the place where Huo Xingzhou had just stood, shot into the lawn, and slanted into the soil.
A lot of soil was pried up.
Qiao Xi turned around and saw Lu Yan sitting in a wheelchair on the steps of the villa with a bow and arrow in his hand.
It was obvious that she and Huo Xingzhou were being used as targets.
She slowly stood up, looked at Huo Xingzhou and asked, "Are you okay?"
He was afraid that she would get hurt from the fall, so he put his body under her.
"fine."
Huo Xingzhou's face was extremely cold, and there was a chill in his narrow eyes.
There were some grass clippings and dust on his suit jacket. Qiao Xi took a glance and found that his hands were scratched by sand and gravel.
Lu Yingxue quickly explained: "This may be a misunderstanding..."
Qiao Xi pushed her away, walked forward and pulled out the arrow.
I touched the sharp arrowhead with my finger. This arrow was not the arrow used for ordinary games, but one that had been sharpened to be particularly sharp.
If it hits someone, there will be blood everywhere.
Qiao Xi held the arrow, her pretty face full of coldness as she walked straight towards Lu Yan who was standing on the steps at the main entrance of the villa.
"Qiao Xi?"
"Young Madam!"
She turned a deaf ear to the voice behind her.
Lu Yan was originally a little arrogant and complacent, but when he saw Qiao Xi approaching with a cold face, her eyes fell on him like knives.
He suddenly felt panicky for no reason.
What is this woman going to do?
