Chapter 932 Don’t you feel wronged?
Qiao Xi asked, "What can I help you with?"
She is not a pushover and has no close relationship with Xia Sisi.
"Don't tell Sun Weimeng what I said to you. Including the reason why I approached Zhao Qin, I hope he will never know." She has her own pride and can be weak in front of others, but she doesn't want to bow her head in front of Sun Weimeng.
She approached Zhao Qin in order to gather information for Sun Weimeng.
Let Sun Weimeng think that she is a fickle and vain woman.
How can someone like her who does whatever it takes deserve love?
What's more, Sun Weimeng is a playboy.
Qiao Xi didn't expect her request to be like this. She frowned and asked, "Aren't you wronged?"
"He and I are not the same kind of people." Xia Sisi wiped away her tears. "I just coveted his money and status. I just want to maintain the purest relationship. Love is too tiring."
Qiao Xi poured a glass of water and placed it in front of her, "Drink some water."
"Thanks."
Xia Sisi held the cup of water and took two sips.
Qiao Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "Although I don't know exactly what happened tonight, based on what you said, your current situation is not very good. Zhao Qin has already grouped you with Sun Weimeng. He won't let you have an easy time in the entertainment industry..."
Xia Sisi laughed, her smile bitter. "I know, that's why I'm going to keep looking for Young Master Sun as my backer. I'm going to beg him to protect me, even if he hates me. Once Young Master Zhao is completely overthrown, I'll be free."
Qiao Xi was not as optimistic as her and couldn't laugh at all.
In this situation, she still had to follow Sun Weimeng and could predict Sun Weimeng's attitude.
Qiao Xi calmed down and decided to stay out of other people's business.
"I'll get you a medical kit to treat your wound."
"Thank you for your help."
…
In the living room, Young Master Sun glanced at the stairs and couldn't help but say, "Huo Er, you're right. Sometimes I get ruined by women. Tonight, I was almost taken advantage of by Zhao Qin. Fortunately, I was steady enough."
He couldn't let Zhao Qin think that Xia Sisi was his weakness, otherwise after he left, Xia Sisi would definitely not be able to survive in the entertainment industry.
Old Chen praised, "Young Master Sun was very impressive tonight, and he got quite a bit of information out of me."
Huo Xingzhou raised his eyes and looked at him and said, "What?"
"The silk business is run by the Pei family and the wealthy Hangzhou merchant Zheng Baijia. Zheng Baijia's daughter married into the imperial capital's Li family, Li Nianqi's father. You said you could use the beauty trick to get her to tell you something, would that work?"
Huo Xingzhou glanced at him coldly.
Sun Weimeng chuckled and said, "I was just joking."
Huo Xingzhou half-closed his eyes, a dark light flashing in his eyes, "You've alerted the enemy."
"ah?"
Sun Weimeng was still very proud of his performance tonight, but when Huo Xingzhou arrived, he said that he had alerted the enemy.
He was a little discouraged: "What did I do wrong?"
"The commotion was too big, and you learned the name Zheng Baijia from them. Then the Pei family will definitely be very cautious when doing business next time. It will be even more difficult for us to obtain evidence."
Maybe the Pei family will also take precautions.
Sun Weimeng said tentatively, "No way? I tortured that woman to extract the confession. Maybe she won't tell Zhao Qin."
"We can't gamble on that possibility."
Huo Xingzhou has always been rigorous in his work.
"Well, I hope my luck is good enough. Sister Wang didn't say anything because we almost became a loving couple." Sun Weimeng could also bet on his good luck at this moment.
Huo Xingzhou laughed. "It doesn't matter. The Pei family will take risks whenever they're short of money. Unless Pei Zheng wants to go bankrupt. They might have the same idea as you."
He had interfered in many projects, and the Pei family's shares fell sharply.
If Pei Zheng wants to turn things around, he needs a lot of money.
But Zhong Lingxiao could no longer help him.
And he still has the illegitimate child in his hands.
"Old Chen!"
"Master, what do you want?"
"Call Pei Zheng and tell him his illegitimate son has been kidnapped and they need a ransom of 500 million."
This amount of money is exactly what Pei Zheng can move.
The Pei family is in a really miserable situation, with very little available funds at the moment.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away. But will Pei Zheng pay 500 million for an illegitimate child?"
"Yes, he must have obtained the paternity test report from abroad, plus the child's experience over the past decade. He couldn't bear to see a future business genius with extraordinary intelligence die."
Yes, Pei Zheng’s illegitimate son completely inherited his father’s business talent, even better than before.
That kid is excellent!
Good bamboo shoots come out of bad bamboo!
When Pei Zheng saw the information, he was absolutely reluctant to give up such a good seedling.
Sun Weimeng sighed: "I didn't expect Pei Zheng to have such good luck after doing so many bad things."
Huo Xingzhou smiled and said nothing.
The Pei family is walking on a tightrope. As long as they get evidence of smuggling cultural relics, they will be completely finished.
Old Chen patted Sun Weimeng on the shoulder and said, "Young Master Sun, this time it's your luck. Let's see if Sister Wang really has feelings for you!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Young Master Sun was still a little embarrassed.
Old Chen laughed and went to arrange the "kidnapping".
Huo Xingzhou stood up and said, "The people you brought back will be arranged in the guest room next to yours, and you can entertain them yourself. Qiao Xi needs to rest, so don't make too much noise."
"Huo Xingzhou, do you think I'm a beast?"
"As long as you understand it in your heart."
After saying that, Huo Xingzhou went upstairs.
Sun Weimeng puffed up his cheeks and was angry for a while, then asked Aunt Qian to help him make a bowl of wonton noodles.
Finally, he carried the tray upstairs, found the guest room assigned to Xia Sisi, and knocked on the door.
There were footsteps inside, and the door was soon opened.
Xia Sisi's watery eyes lit up when she saw him appear, but soon a complicated look appeared.
"Why are you here?"
The tone of voice they spoke was even more unfamiliar than that of strangers.
Sun Weimeng brought the tray into the room and said, "After all the noise tonight, I'm sure you haven't eaten anything. I asked Aunt Qian to make a bowl of wonton noodles for you. Please have a little."
Xia Sisi stood aside and said, "We female celebrities all have to manage our body shape. It's okay if we don't eat for a day. You don't have to worry about it so much."
"I'm not obsessed with it. Whatever relationship you have with other men has nothing to do with me, but I still have to take some responsibility for the way Zhao Qin's men beat you up because of me. Now that you're forced to be tied to the same boat with me, I will protect you."
That's very polite.
That's not what Xia Sisi wanted to hear.
"It was just a few slaps and kicks. I've gotten hurt more often in fight scenes, so it's not that dramatic."
Xia Sisi looked at him and said deliberately, "We each get what we need. There's no need to talk about feelings. Can you please not care who I'm with? If you want to protect me, then I'll give you..."
She took a step closer and her breath touched Sun Weimeng's cheek.
