Chapter 415 You want a son, I'll give you one
Old Chen was holding the little rooster and was stunned!
Blood?
There were actually traces of blood inside, but covering up a lie was not his strong point.
Old Chen walked over to Qiao Xi's side, watching her pointing at the bright red blood stains on the small jar and saying, "Young Madam, I don't know what's going on. Is the chicken injured? It's been jumping around in the car for a long time, and it must have scratched its skin."
Qiao Xi stared at him, making his scalp tingle.
Old Chen said quickly: "I'll call the young master and ask him to come back."
He must not say another word before the young master comes back.
The young lady was too perceptive, she actually noticed something was wrong.
She is a doctor and she can definitely tell whether it is human blood or chicken blood.
How come Master Zhong even smeared blood into the car?
It was also his fault for not cleaning up the mess carefully. Who would have thought that the young lady would come back so early.
Qiao Xi let him make the call.
See what explanation they can give her.
Qiao Xi moved the things in the trunk into the car. Aunt Qian heard the noise and quickly ran out to take the things from her hands.
"Madam, you must have had a hard journey. Why didn't the young master come back with you?"
"He went to the company to take care of some things. He should be back soon."
Qiao Xi glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and saw that it was almost time to get off work.
"Then it's just right for me to go home for dinner. I'll just pick up these local specialties and stir-fry a few dishes. Look, there's even bacon. I haven't had traditionally smoked bacon in years, so it's a good time to try it."
Aunt Qian was really happy to see these local specialties, and it gave her room to display her culinary skills.
Qiao Xi laughed and said, "Old Chen likes to eat sour bamboo shoots and stinky mandarin fish. He said he wants you to make him sour bamboo shoots and lamb stew someday."
She quietly wiped the blood off with a tissue before handing it to Aunt Qian, and then she held the bloodstained tissue in her palm.
"That's fine too. It smells sour, but it tastes appetizing and refreshing."
Aunt Qian was obviously also a fan. She took the small jar weighing three or five pounds, looked at it again and again, and even opened the lid and smelled it.
His eyes curved up with laughter.
An hour later.
Huo Xingzhou and Lao Chen sat in the living room. Lao Chen felt a little uneasy, while Huo Xingzhou drank hot tea leisurely.
Qiao Xi looked at them and said, "Give me an explanation. Why is there human blood in the trunk? Those uniformed people at the checkpoint must be searching for someone."
Old Chen looked at Huo Xingzhou, hoping he could give a reasonable excuse.
Huo Xingzhou took a sip from his teacup and said, "There's someone hiding in the trunk."
"Who?"
When Qiao Xi thought about the fourth person in the car, her hair stood on end.
Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "He's Lao Chen's friend. He was injured after years of living on the edge of a knife, so he had no choice but to seek refuge with him. I was afraid you'd be scared, so I let him stay in the trunk."
"Yes, he's my friend!"
Old Chen responded.
He knew Zhong Shao and they were considered friends.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly and looked at them. Why were they so unconvinced?
Huo Xingzhou reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his arms and sitting her on his lap. He whispered, "You know what Old Chen did in the past. I'll have to rely on his old friends to help me in the future, so of course I have to lend a hand this time."
Qiao Xi whispered, "Are they doing something illegal?"
"No. Those in uniform have been bribed and will be suspended and investigated soon."
"Is Lao Chen's friend seriously injured?"
Huo Xingzhou said, "It's just a superficial wound, it shouldn't be a problem. Old Chen has already taken him to the hospital for treatment."
He originally wanted to find evidence of Zhong Yi's identity and confess to her.
He should tell her.
But now it seems that nothing can be said until Zhong Lingxiao, the eldest son of the Zhong family, completely loses power.
Because Zhong Lingxiao was a cruel person who didn't even care about human life. He could send people to hunt down Zhong Yi, so why would he care about a mere Qiao Xi?
Qiao Xi said softly, "That's good."
But she still had a seed of doubt in her heart. Huo Xingzhou's excuse didn't make sense. She was a doctor, she had seen many bloody scenes, how could she be afraid of an injured person?
Huo Xingzhou patted her shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, it's time for dinner."
"Um."
…
at night.
In the ward on the 22nd floor of Haicheng Central Hospital.
Zhong Yi was lying on the bed in his hospital gown, while Wan Jiang was peeling an orange for him.
"Master Zhong, I've already spread the false news that you were hospitalized with a cold and fever. The people in the capital should have heard about it by now. I bet the young master must be furious. If I didn't kill you this time, I'll have even fewer chances in the future."
Zhong Lingxiao must have received the news that he was still alive.
As long as you think about the past and the present, you will guess that it was Huo Xingzhou who brought him back to the city.
"If he can't kill me, I have to find a way to kill him. Anyway, one of us must die." Zhong Yi gently broke off a slice of orange and ate it.
His face was pale, but his eyebrows and eyes were like a landscape painting with thick brushstrokes, and his eyes were dark.
"Where's Lin Xifei?"
"She's outside. Do you want to call her in?" Wan Jiang knew Zhong Shao's character too well. When he was unhappy, he wanted to make trouble for others.
This time, he fell into Lin Xifei's hands and will definitely hold a grudge.
"Bring it in."
"yes."
Wan Jiang stood up and opened the door, asking the bodyguard to bring Lin Xifei in.
Lin Xifei's face wasn't looking good. She was blocked in the hotel and not allowed to leave, and her phone was confiscated. She had already guessed that Zhong Yi might still be alive, and now that she saw him in person, she was even more terrified.
She had heard a lot about the methods of this illegitimate son of the Zhong family.
"Mr. Zhong...Mr. Zhong, I wonder what business you have with me?" Lin Xifei's voice was trembling.
Zhong Yi smiled and raised her eyes, her expression both noble and dangerous. "Miss Lin, don't you know why I asked you to come here? You almost killed me. What benefit did Zhong Lingxiao give you to make you so devoted to him?"
Lin Xifei shrank her neck in fear: "Master Zhong, I don't understand what you are saying."
Wan Jiang slapped her in the face: "What did you do? Do you need our Master Zhong to point it out?"
"ah!"
Lin Xifei was hit and staggered, and was then held down by the bodyguard.
Her eyes were filled with tears and she looked a little desperate.
On the one hand, she hoped that Zhong Yi would be wary of Zhong Lingxiao's power and give her a break. On the other hand, she felt that since Zhong Yi had captured her, he would do anything.
Zhong Yi stood up and slowly walked in front of her.
He stretched out his finger and lifted her chin frivolously, admiring this face that the entertainment industry called a beauty that is rarely seen in a century, and laughed.
Lin Xifei was stunned, her eyes filled with his reflection.
The Zhong family has always produced beauties, and this second young master, Zhong, is even more striking than Zhong Lingxiao. His first appearance as a young lady captivated many a young lady, and a closer look is even more captivating.
In this situation, she couldn't help but lose her mind.
He said, "Lin Xifei, I heard you want to have a son? How about I give you one?"
Her heart rate physiologically increased.
