Chapter 423 Do you trust Huo Xingzhou so much?
Zhong Yi's mouth curled up, and his handsome face became even more alluring. His face was pale due to excessive blood loss, but it made him look even more fragile and beautiful.
He looked up and asked, "Why?"
"This concerns a friend of mine." Qiao Xi's eyes turned red. "Mr. Zhong should not be hospitalized with fever or pneumonia. Your face explains a lot."
Zhong Yi looked at her with a smile: "I shouldn't underestimate the Chinese medicine's observation, smell, questioning and palpation, not to mention that you are the apprentice of the traditional Chinese medicine master Cheng Han. But how I stay in the hospital, what does it have to do with you?"
Qiao Xi clenched her hands tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms: "Why did Master Zhong go to Moon Village? And why did he hide in the trunk of my Huo family's car to return to the city?"
Zhong Yi said slowly: "Shouldn't you ask Huo Xingzhou about these questions? Or is it that your relationship as husband and wife is not that good, and he didn't even tell you this?"
Qiao Xi's voice was soft, "He didn't tell me because he was thinking about me. I didn't ask him because I appreciated his kindness. Now that I have discovered something else, of course I have to ask the person involved in this matter. I don't want him to be troubled by an uncertain thing."
Huo Xingzhou didn't know Ayi very well.
He was always jealous then.
Qiao Xi didn't want to cause any trouble.
If Zhong Yi is indeed the person she has been thinking of, then she will go back and explain everything to Huo Xingzhou; if not, then she will pretend that nothing has happened.
She doesn't believe in the resurrection of the dead.
But some clues forced her to dig deeper.
Zhong Yi was not very happy after hearing what she said: "You really trust Huo Xingzhou. You think he does everything for your own good. I remember that you married into the Huo family for the sake of surprise. He didn't really want to marry you at first."
"It's good to be sincere now. At least I love him sincerely."
Qiao Xi didn't allow him to say bad things about Huo Xingzhou.
Wan Jiang defended him, "Doctor Qiao, our Master Zhong is very loyal. You don't know anything, so don't misunderstand." He watched every move of their Master Zhong.
There is no one more devoted than him.
"Mr. Zhong, please don't change the subject." Qiao Xi stared at him intently with her almond-shaped eyes. "Please tell me why you went to Moon Village?"
Zhong Yi laughed: "I was shot and fled to that place because Zhong Lingxiao sent people to chase me. I have no power in Haicheng, so I can only look for Huo Xingzhou. He is still waiting for me to invest in the Future City project. Does he want the investor to die? I just didn't want to scare you, so I hid in the trunk."
"Mrs. Huo, you also saw the checkpoints set up to look for people. If I had hidden in an ordinary person's car, I would have died eight hundred times. You are so concerned about my whereabouts, don't let people misunderstand you."
What he said seemed to make sense.
But Qiao Xi didn't listen to him and only believed what she verified.
"Mr. Zhong, please let me see your right wrist." Her whole body was tense like a string. Are some of my guesses really absurd?
Zhong Shao casually stretched out his right hand: "Look for yourself."
He was holding a mobile phone in his left hand, scrolling through videos and looking very calm.
Qiao Xi walked slowly closer and looked at the watch.
Ayi's right wrist had a shallow scar from when he saved her. If there really was...
Qiao Xi hesitated for a moment, then reached out and unfastened his watch strap. Once the buckle came loose, the entire watch face was hanging on his hand.
Zhong Yi raised his eyes and looked at her profile.
There was a faint smell of shampoo in her hair, which was a bit strange. It seemed that she had been assimilated into the man Huo Xingzhou.
A silly girl who insists on being stubborn.
I wonder how much mental preparation she had made before rushing here. She must have overturned her own guesses over and over again, but she couldn't help but act on impulse this time.
Zhong Yi's heart felt burned and a little sad.
"Mrs. Huo, have you seen enough? Is there a wound on my right wrist?" Zhong Yi smiled nonchalantly, with a hint of ridicule in her tone.
Qiao Xi accidentally touched his skin and took off his watch, revealing his smooth, cold white skin.
Where are the scars?
no.
She froze completely, and it felt like all the energy she had accumulated throughout the night had disappeared at that moment, leaving her completely exhausted.
Zhong Yi retracted his hand: "Is there really a flower on my wrist?"
Qiao Xi pursed her lips, her eyes filled with moisture.
She tried her best to hold it back, and said calmly, "Sorry, I'm sorry. You're not the one I'm looking for."
"Who did you mistake me for? Is that person more important than Huo Xingzhou?" Zhong Yi's tone sounded calm, but his fingers curled up and he also wanted to know the answer.
"I thought you were... But this also shows that Master Cheng and he didn't lie to me."
Qiao Xi tried hard to force a smile, and her expression was heartbreaking.
Zhong Yi hid his eyes and said, "Is this the person you like?"
Qiao Xi shook her head: "No, that's my best...irreplaceable friend."
"So you don't like him. That guy looks a lot like me?"
"They look alike and have the same name. But their personalities and ways of dealing with things are completely different, and their backgrounds are even more different. I remember that he was an orphan, and Master Cheng took pity on him and took him with him... But he died, so when I saw you..."
Zhong Yi kept a faint smile on her face: "Don't recognize the wrong person next time, otherwise your friend will be sad even if he dies. I also don't want Mrs. Huo to think of me as a substitute. Otherwise, I will go to Huo Xingzhou to complain."
Qiao Xi nodded gently and looked at him seriously.
Those clear almond-shaped eyes were filled with so many emotions that it was hard to understand them at that moment.
"I'm sorry to bother you. I'll leave now..."
When she turned to leave, she accidentally knocked over the small stool. She bent down to pick it up and walked out of the ward in a hurry.
Looks so pitiful.
Wan Jiang watched her back as she walked away before closing the door.
"Master Zhong, you are truly a master of prediction."
He moved a small round stool and sat next to Zhong Yi's bed and said, "I had a laser scar removal surgery not long after coming to Haicheng, and I have been wearing this watch to cover the scabs. I never thought that Dr. Qiao would really make such a request."
He remembered that Zhong Shao was in a particularly bad mood that day, but the effect of laser scar removal was very good!
Zhong Yi said calmly: "I was just being cautious. She is a fool and very stubborn. She trusted Yi too much and thought Yi would never lie to her. She also thought that the boy was really dead..."
He put down his phone, his voice carrying an inexplicable chill: "Now that she wants to see my scars, it can only mean one thing. We have revealed too many flaws. Wan Jiang, do you really think she believes what I said?"
Wan Jiang asked back: "Didn't she believe it? I think she's quite disappointed."
Zhong Yi shook her head: "I didn't admit it this time, and she had no other choice. But once she has doubts, according to her personality, she will throw evidence in front of me and force me to admit it next time!"
He knew her temper best.
Black and white purity.
Either she has no doubts, then dead is dead. Once she has doubts, she will investigate thoroughly and completely eliminate the suspicion in her heart, then she will stop.
Wan Jiang asked, "She looks so weak, but she is so powerful? What should we do?"
Zhong Yi closed his eyes slightly and exhaled: "Leave Haicheng."
