Chapter 770 Zhong Yi, you actually watched a movie alone!
Sun Weimeng followed her closely, "Are you looking for someone to settle accounts with? Old Chen went out with Huo Xingzhou today. He told you to stay home."
Qiao Xi said expressionlessly, "I don't go to dangerous places."
"Then where are you going? You're not going to see Zhong Yi, are you? We have a big vinegar jar in our family. Lately, I feel like every dish at the dinner table is sour. How about you..."
"I'll call and report. You come with me."
Qiao Xi also knew her limits, so she pulled Sun Weimeng along.
"Hey? Qiao Xi..."
As Qiao Xi walked, she called Huo Xingzhou and briefly explained the situation to him.
And he promised: "Young Master Sun and I are going together, we will be back soon."
Huo Xingzhou was quite magnanimous and agreed directly without saying much.
This made Sun Weimeng a little surprised.
"Why isn't Huo Er jealous anymore? Last time, Zhong Yi just came home for a meal, and he flew into a rage."
Qiao Xi looked back at him and asked, "Do you really want us to quarrel? He's not that petty."
Sun Weimeng chuckled twice.
He pretends to be magnanimous on the surface, but secretly becomes hostile when he is alone with his love rival.
The two soon arrived at the Zhong family's villa.
The maids were packing up and replacing everything Lu Yingxue had used.
In and out, busy all the time.
"Miss Qiao, Master Sun!"
Wan Jiang was sharp-eyed and saw two familiar figures in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, and hurried out.
When Qiao Xi saw him, she felt much more at ease: "Assistant Wan, is your Master Zhong here?"
"Yes! Our Master Zhong is resting upstairs. Why are you here, Miss Qiao?"
Wan Jiang felt a little happy in his heart, because it was not him who asked anyone to come, but Miss Qiao who came on her own.
"I came to see Ayi."
"This way, please." Wan Jiang led the way. "The young master's room is upstairs."
"Thank you for your help."
"It's not a big deal. It's just a small matter. I feel relieved when you come, Miss Qiao. Our Master Zhong is in a bad mood and wants to be alone." Wan Jiang said softly, "I hope you can comfort him."
"good."
Sun Weimeng followed behind them and sneered when he heard this.
The boss and the assistant are of the same moral character.
Whatever the boss thinks, the assistant thinks the same thing.
Also helped with assists.
Sun Weimeng couldn't help but say, "Your Young Master Zhong seems to be a very open-minded person. It's nothing serious. It's just a couple of slaps. He will definitely pay it back a hundredfold in a while."
Maybe he was deliberately getting beaten to gain sympathy.
Sun Weimeng was full of vigilance.
Wan Jiang asked in reply, "Young Master Sun, who would want to endure such a great humiliation? The news has spread all over the capital now. Our Young Master Zhong is such an arrogant person..."
Sun Weimeng pursed his lips.
Qiao Xi said softly, "Young Master Sun, this wouldn't be easy for anyone."
Just imagine, if someone dared to slap Huo Xingzhou twice.
Qiao Xi will definitely fight to the death!
Wan Jiang withdrew his gaze from Sun Weimeng, looked at the master bedroom door and said, "Miss Qiao, this is our Master Zhong's bedroom."
He raised his hand and knocked twice, then said in a loud voice, "Mr. Zhong, a guest has arrived."
A cold voice came from inside: "No."
Wan Jiang hesitated and said, "Miss Qiao is here, but you still won't see her? Then I'll let her go first."
There was no sound inside for a moment.
Zhong Yi didn't say anything else.
Others could simply refuse and say they wouldn’t see him, but Qiao Xi was different.
There are some things that can never be said to Qiao Xi.
"Assistant Wan, let me come." Qiao Xi walked forward, put his hand on the door handle and said, "Ayi, I'm coming in."
She pushed the door open and walked in.
Zhong Yi was sitting in a wheelchair with his back to them, his hands tapping on the notebook, making a rhythmic keyboard sound.
This room was different from Huo Xingzhou's cold and aloof one. Instead, it was simple and clean with a touch of warmth. The furnishings were not expensive, but rather delicate items, giving the impression that the owner was a person of great taste and a soft heart.
There is a large floor-to-ceiling window in the room through which you can see the scenery outside.
"Ayi."
Qiao Xi walked behind him and called out softly.
Zhong Yi turned around, looked up at her and said, "Why did you come here suddenly?"
Qiao Xi looked at the red and swollen slap marks on his face, and the increasingly dark and terrifying pinch marks on his neck. She could not imagine how much suffering he had endured at the hands of Zhong Lingxiao.
Her heart was filled with anxiety.
"You knew I was beaten, so you came to comfort me because you were afraid I would be depressed?" Zhong Yi asked casually, his hands still on the laptop.
He didn't seem to think it was a big deal.
Qiao Xi looked at his expression, which seemed normal.
"Don't worry." Zhong Yi said softly, "This little thing is nothing to me. I've seen even more powerful methods before. Zhong Lingxiao and Lu Yingxue are both very arrogant now, so I just pushed them. I didn't bring many bodyguards to the old house, and I deliberately provoked him, hoping that he would take action."
With his brain, how could he not have figured it out?
But the more he said this, the more uncomfortable Qiao Xi felt.
She couldn't help but wonder how much injustice he had suffered over the years to be so calm today.
Being slapped in the face and being laughed at by the entire upper class of the imperial capital was considered a trivial matter.
Qiao Xi did not cross the line, her voice was slow and gentle: "If you need help, please don't hesitate. We will do our best to help you."
A faint warmth flashed across Zhong Yi's affectionate eyes: "Will you always stand by me unconditionally?"
Qiao Xi's voice was firm, "Yes."
But Huo Xingzhou's jealous and stern face suddenly flashed through her mind, and she added, "If you and Xingzhou have a conflict, then I still need to think about it again."
A hint of disappointment spread across Zhong Yi's eyes. "I thought I was more important than Huo Xingzhou."
Qiao Xi smiled and said, "He... is the most important, and you are important too."
No doubt!
Sun Weimeng was so excited listening to this from behind that he almost crowed like a rooster while holding his phone. Huo Xingzhou had to hear this.
Zhong Yi got a clear answer from her.
The self-deception I had before was completely gone.
The years they missed were missed after all. Even if he tried his best now, he couldn't replace Huo Xingzhou's position in Qiao Xi's heart.
She was also sending out this signal when she said this.
A very subtle reminder.
They can always be best friends, but it's impossible to go further.
Zhong Yi's fingers subconsciously bent, and her fingertips accidentally touched the touch area of the notebook.
For a moment, waves of ambiguous sounds rang out in the room.
The woman screamed and the man growled.
There are also some dirty words that overflow.
Sun Weimeng was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. He shouted accusingly, "Zhong Yi, you actually hid in your room watching a movie by yourself!"
