Chapter 754: See you more often
Seeing her seriousness, Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Go ahead."
Qiao Xi did not treat him as an outsider, nor did she intend to keep the news of Cheng Han's life hidden from him.
"Ayi, Grandpa Cheng is still alive."
Qiao Xi's words cracked Zhong Yi's apparent indifference.
Cheng Han is still alive?
Zhong Yi once had doubts, but in the end, because Qiao Xi held Cheng Han's funeral, all his doubts were dispelled.
Because he felt that Qiao Xi would not cheat on such a big matter.
She has great respect for life and death.
"He's at our house. He was seriously injured before. He just woke up today and should be resting by now." Qiao Xi looked at his shocked eyes and continued to explain, "The situation is urgent. The Lu family is pressing us. We have no choice but to do this."
"Ayi, Grandpa Cheng came to the capital to look for his biological daughter. I didn't expect that Ms. Cheng in the last round of the needle test conference was his daughter, but fortunately I have found a way to bring her out."
Qiao Xi stopped there and didn't reveal many of the secrets from the past.
If Grandpa Cheng wanted him to know about the love, hatred and emotions of the past, he would definitely tell him.
Zhong Yi had difficulty digesting the news.
There was something wrong with the look in his eyes when he looked at Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi used to be so simple and single-minded. She didn't know how to be tactful or give in, but now she was telling such a huge lie.
His gaze slowly turned to Huo Xingzhou. It was he who had led him astray again!
Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Qiao Xi asked, "Ayi, do you know that this news is not happy?"
"Happy."
Zhong Yi's emotions are somewhat complicated.
He was somewhat happy that Cheng Han was not dead, so he could be a little more tolerant towards the Lu family.
But this incident was too big, and the shock outweighed the joy.
Zhong Yi took a deep breath, suppressed all other thoughts and said, "When can I see him? I haven't seen him for many years, and there are some things I want to say to him in person."
Qiao Xi said softly, "I can take you upstairs after dinner, but I don't know if Grandpa Cheng is asleep. Xiaoyuan just went upstairs to deliver the meal, so let's wait a little longer."
The old man had just woken up, and Qiao Xi wanted to see how he was doing before seeing any guests.
She glanced at the vegetable rice cakes in Zhong Yi's bowl and said, "Didn't you keep saying you wanted to eat them? Take this opportunity to eat more. I'll have someone send some rice cakes from Haicheng next time."
There is still a little difference between the rice cakes in the imperial capital and Haicheng.
"good."
Zhong Yi nodded and picked up the rice cake in the bowl with chopsticks.
Eat it bite by bite.
When they were talking, no one else could get in on the conversation. It was like being completely isolated from their world, and that feeling was really annoying.
Sun Weimeng has a very sharp intuition.
He didn't dare to say much, but his eyes rolled around, filled with many emotions.
He looked at Zhong Yi for a while, then at Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou.
The atmosphere between these three people is really weird.
The undercurrent is surging, and there is no sign of stopping on the surface.
Look, Huo Xingzhou started to pick up food for Qiao Xi.
"Eat more and get more protein. If you still want to eat farm-raised eggs in the future, I'll plan a chicken farm in Yueliang Village and include the hillside. I can also provide some job opportunities for the villagers and specialize in providing eggs for the Huo family and Tianyuan Group."
The demand for eggs for a family is not very large, but the demand for eggs for a group is very large.
This is like giving Moon Village a hen that can lay eggs. Although it cannot make them rich, they can live a better life.
"real?"
Qiao Xi was very surprised.
She had never thought that she could help her hometown in this way. She only thought about building roads and alleviating poverty.
She stared at Huo Xingzhou's handsome face and suddenly felt enlightened.
In fact, she could find a way to open up sales channels for the village's agricultural products and wild delicacies. City people like the natural, green and pollution-free ones.
Seeing her eyes sparkling, Huo Xingzhou said with an idea: "Sun Weimeng, do it tomorrow!"
Sun Weimeng said bitterly, "Okay."
What else could he do except agree?
You can't lose face for Huo Xingzhou in front of your love rival.
Zhong Yi refused to give in. "As for the chicken farm, I'm more familiar with the terrain and villagers of Yueliang Village than Mr. Huo. I'm the most suitable candidate. Why would you hand it over to an outsider like Mr. Sun? In addition to providing it to your group, I also want to donate some of the funds to charity. For example, a charity project called One Egg."
Qiao Xi looked at him curiously.
Zhong Yi spilled all the words like pouring out beans.
"We provide children from poor families with an egg every day to ensure their nutrition. Our village has gradually improved, but there are still many children in poverty across the country. We can never imagine the suffering of many people in this world."
Zhong Yi's words made Qiao Xi's heart sink.
"You're absolutely right. I was lazy and donated part of the profits from the beauty salon to the Xingyue Foundation for allocation. I thought that would help people. I'm not as thoughtful as you think."
The corners of Zhong Yi's lips curled up slightly, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have thought of it."
There was a soft spot in Qiao Xi's heart.
Huo Xingzhou's face darkened even more.
Sun Weimeng quickly adjusted the atmosphere and changed the subject: "Why is Huo Sijiao so angry? She didn't even come back for dinner. Is she really mad at us?"
"Probably not."
Qiao Xi was very sure in her heart, "Jiaojiao is a very straightforward girl. If she was really angry, she would definitely tell us instead of running away and having the cold war with us. She should have calmed down by now."
"That's good, otherwise I would still be worried about her safety."
Sun Weimeng kept talking and joking.
The dinner went smoothly without any incident.
It finally ended.
In the end, Zhong Yi did not see Cheng Han because Cheng Han was too tired and fell asleep.
Huo Xingzhou asked him to leave in a cold tone.
"Take care."
In front of the villa, Huo Xingzhou's handsome face was covered with frost under the light.
Finally, the uninvited guest was driven away.
Zhong Yi sat in the car with the window rolled down.
There was a hint of provocation in his eyes: "See you later."
There will be many opportunities to meet in the future.
He had said it long ago, the day when his identity was exposed.
It was impossible for Qiao Xi to remain indifferent. Even though she was Huo Xingzhou's wife, she would still leave some room for him.
Huo Xingzhou was being stubborn before, but now... did you see it?
We will see more in the future.
He couldn't interfere in his and Qiao Xi's past memories.
"Wanjiang, drive."
Zhong Yi's tone sounded pretty good, a bit happy.
"Yes, Master Zhong."
Wan Jiang carefully reversed the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove out.
Huo Xingzhou stood at the doorway and said calmly, "Sun Weimeng, you and Lao Chen should go out. Xiaoyuan, go to the kitchen and clean up."
He sent everyone away.
He reached out and grabbed Qiao Xi's wrist, then walked into the living room.
