Chapter 106 Qiao Xi, I Want to Save You

Qiao Xi quickly closed her eyes, pulled the quilt over her and pretended to sleep.

She could clearly hear the door opening and footsteps approaching. The mattress beside her sank a lot, and the familiar cold wood fragrance came faintly.

It’s Huo Xingzhou!

Qiao Xi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and bitterness and complexity fermented in her heart.

The wall lamp was dim, and under the light the man looked as cold as jade. He stretched out his warm fingers and gently stroked the corners of her eyes.

Wet.

The man said in a gentle voice: "Qiao Xi, I know you are awake."

Qiao Xi was exposed. She slowly opened her eyes and met Huo Xingzhou's calm eyes.

Her eyes were red and swollen, like walnuts, with accusation and grievance in her eyes.

"Unhappy?" he asked.

Qiao Xi shook her head stubbornly: "I'm not unhappy. It's getting late, Mr. Huo, go back and have some rest."

The tone was distant and unfamiliar, and she urged him to leave.

Huo Xingzhou looked at her steadily and said, "Okay, then I'm really leaving."

He was a king who calculated people's hearts, so he naturally saw through her inner discomfort.

She is inherently inferior and not brave enough.

Qiao Xi felt sad, her hair stuck to her ears. She watched him stand up and prepare to leave, her eyes filled with moisture, mist covering her vision.

Didn't he want to explain it to her a little more?

"Little fool."

Huo Xingzhou suddenly turned around, and seeing her like that, he approached her and pressed her down on the soft bed.

The man looked down and asked, "After I leave, can you sleep tonight?"

Qiao Xi stared at him, not having the courage to ask. It seemed that saying those words would mean surrendering to him. Love affairs between men and women are a game of chess. Although she was ignorant, she did not want to surrender.

"I can." She said stubbornly.

Huo Xingzhou stretched out his fingers and rubbed the corners of her lips. He could feel the wetness of her lips and tongue: "What do you want me to use to pry open this mouth?"

Qiao Xi's hands tightly grasped the bed sheet, and her white legs were stretched straight.

Silence.

Huo Xingzhou suddenly lowered his head and grabbed her red lips, kissing them closely and closely, hot and wet. He bit her full and crystal red lips with great force, pinching her slender waist with both hands.

Qiao Xi's eyes sparkled with tears, and she couldn't suppress the sobbing sound from her lips and tongue...

His hand lifted up the hem of her pajamas, and Qiao Xi screamed in shame and anger: "I... I'm having my period." Her eyes were red and she was easy to bully.

The man pressed his hand against her cheek, breathing rapidly and unsteadily: "Does it hurt?"

Qiao Xi felt extremely aggrieved, and burst into tears: "It doesn't hurt."

In fact, it hurts so much!

My abdomen felt like it was being cut by a blunt knife, over and over again.

Huo Xingzhou wiped her tears and said, "You're still trying to be strong."

Qiao Xi's face was covered with tears, but her eyes were as clear as if they had been washed. She mustered up great courage and asked, "Mr. Huo, is Miss Xu important to you?"

Huo Xingzhou turned over, lay beside her and whispered, "Qiao Xi, it's you I want to save tonight."

But he was tricked.

The lake was dark, and Xiang Huai jumped into the water to save people without hesitation. Huo Xingzhou was sure that he would save Xu Xingluo, so he swam in another direction.

But I didn't expect that even Xiang Huai cheated.

He was entangled by Xu Xingluo and couldn't get away.

"I'm sorry for putting you in danger."

After hearing his explanation, Qiao Xi's resentment mostly dissipated.

"Mr. Huo, do you believe me? I really didn't push her." Qiao Xi was too unconfident in front of this man.

She knew she was doomed.

His gentleness, gentlemanliness, and restraint were poison to her, making her addicted.

Huo Xingzhou gently put his arm around her shoulders and said, "With your character, there is no need to do such a thing. The Liu and Xu families regard her as the apple of their eye. She has been spoiled. You should try to avoid direct conflict with her."

Qiao Xi looked at him. Maybe he and Xu Xingluo had a very sweet past, but it was already in the past.

She tried to ignore the thorn in her heart and moved closer to him, nestling in his arms.

Huo Xingzhou placed his hand on her abdomen, stroking it with his warm palm and said, "Qiao Xi, don't keep your grievances in your heart."

Qiao Xi turned her head and kissed the side of his cheek, her eyes sparkling.

"good."

Huo Xingzhou's mouth sank slightly: "Now, I think..."

Her left hand went numb after hearing this, and she quickly hid her hands under the bed sheet and whispered, "Only for a little while."

He didn't actually mean that, but the way she looked when she misunderstood was so adorable, so Huo Xingzhou just went with it.

"Not small." The man's voice was barely audible.

Clothes rustled and the quilt fluttered. The sound of kisses and whispers could be heard.

…

In the corridor of Liu's house.

The atmosphere was tense and anxious.

The two families had complicated thoughts and different expressions.

The private doctor in a white coat walked out of the room, took off his mask and said, "It's nothing serious. Falling into the water triggered asthma and I have a slight fever."

"That's good." Liu Huimin covered her chest, took a long breath and walked into the room. When she saw Xu Xingluo with a wound on his cheek, she felt heartbroken again.

Liu Huimin hugged her and shouted, "Baby, mommy is so heartbroken!"

Xu Xing fell into her arms and sobbed pitifully a few times.

She wiped away her tears, looked at the people in the room and said, "Uncle, aunt, and grandmother, I'm sorry! Xingluo made you worry and ruined my cousin's full-moon party. It's all Xingluo's fault."

She is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

Old Lady Liu touched her head and comforted her, "It's good that Xingluo is okay. We don't blame you."

Liu Zongquan said in a deep voice, "Even Qinghu's bodyguards have not been withdrawn yet. I heard that the Huo family found the most famous trace expert to rush to Haicheng overnight to investigate the truth."

His eyes were calm and deep. He looked at Xu Xingluo and asked, "Xingluo, what exactly happened at that time?"

Xu Xingluo's expression froze, and tears instantly fell: "Uncle, I was so scared at the time that I just felt someone pushing me. It could be an illusion."

Liu Zongquan was not so easy to fool. He stared at Xu Xingluo and said, "I want the truth."

Xu Xingluo shook his head pitifully: "I can't remember."

Liu Zongquan glanced at her calmly and said, "What the Huo family wants is our attitude. Traceology experts are secondary. No matter what the truth is, you should apologize tomorrow and clear Qiao Xi of suspicion."

Xu Xingluo was stunned.

Liu Huimin, who was standing aside, caressed Xu Xingluo's cheek with heartache. The palm print there was very obvious.

She said coldly, "Why should my daughter apologize?"

Liu Zongquan took a deep breath and said, "Because she is the disciple of the national doctor Cheng Han! Our Liu family needs help! Whether Zong Yun can wake up depends on whether she is willing to help!"

Xu Xingluo burst into tears and said, "For my uncle, I am willing to do anything."

"My dear baby." Liu Huimin hugged her and cried sadly, but in her heart she hated Qiao Xi even more.

Xu Xingluo's eyes were red, and she smiled and said, "Mom, I'm not wronged."

She was even more afraid that the trace identification experts would come and find a way to destroy all the traces around Qing Lake!
