Chapter 472 He is Broken-Hearted
Qiao Xi held Huo Xingzhou's arm and went downstairs with a sweet heart.
As soon as I arrived at the living room, I smelled a faint smell of alcohol in the air. I looked closely and saw Sun Weimeng lying on the carpet in the living room. His whole body was in a very twisted posture, and he was holding an empty bottle of wine in his hand.
How much alcohol did you drink?
Didn't wake up during lunch time.
Xiaoyuan came out of the kitchen and said with a smile: "Master, Madam, you are awake. Lunch has been prepared in the kitchen. I made it according to the Haicheng taste. The villa has been cleaned up, and the living room is..."
She smiled awkwardly, "Young Master Sun hasn't woken up yet."
Qiao Xi asked softly, "Did he drink a lot of wine last night?"
"He drank a whole bottle of liquor, and he was crying and wailing while he drank. Didn't you hear him in the middle of the night?"
Qiao Xi pursed her lips.
Huo Xingzhou hooked his fingers around her palm and looked at her with a hint of teasing. Qiao Xi looked away awkwardly. After what happened last night, she couldn't hear anything else.
It's hard to tell who is louder than who.
She asked uncomfortably, "Why did Young Master Sun drink so much? Is he in a bad mood?"
"He's heartbroken!"
Old Chen walked in from the door of the villa, laughing heartily, "Young Master Sun is heartbroken and is drinking to drown his sorrows."
Qiao Xi was puzzled: "When did he fall in love?"
"I fell in love yesterday, it was unrequited love. I broke up with him in the evening and drank a whole bottle of white wine. I, Chen, feel ashamed of myself, but luckily I didn't have any problems with my drinking." Chen accompanied Sun Weimeng to drink for most of the day and listened to him crying for a long time.
It looks like he is really sad.
Qiao Xi understood immediately, "He... Guan Jingtan?"
Old Chen nodded: "He wanted to marry into the Guan family. But I said that the family has strict rules and they definitely require men to be loyal. He cried and said that he was dirty and unworthy of Miss Guan, and he wished he could purify himself and become a eunuch..."
Lao Chen gestured a few inches below his navel.
Qiao Xicai didn't believe it!
She still knew clearly what Young Master Sun valued most.
Qiao Xi walked to the tea table, reached out and patted Sun Shao on the shoulder: "Sun Shao, wake up."
Sun Wei suddenly closed his eyes and turned over, looking a little impatient.
Seeing all this, Xiao Yuan smiled and said, "Young Madam can't wake him up. I called him for a long time before, but Young Master Sun just wouldn't wake up. I think he is too sad and depressed."
Qiao Xi didn't believe it, and said to Sun Weimeng, "Little pill."
Sun Wei suddenly sat up and opened his eyes: "Where is the little pill? What is its effect? Is it the kind that can resist long spears?"
"Hahaha."
Lao Chen and Xiao Yuan burst into laughter.
Sun Weimeng rubbed his sour eyes, and when he saw Qiao Xi teasing him, he pursed his lips: "Even you can lie. You used to be so naive. But you got corrupted by following Huo Xingzhou."
Qiao Xi said gently, "Young Master Sun, have lunch first. After you finish eating, wash up and have a good rest."
"oh."
Sun Wei stood up suddenly, looking listless.
Xiao Yuan said, "Then I'll go to the kitchen to serve the dishes. Master, Madam, you guys go to the restaurant and wait, it will be here in a moment."
"Thank you for your hard work, Madoka."
"It's not hard, go ahead, Madam."
Several people walked to the small restaurant and sat down one by one.
Xiaoyuan brought all the dishes to the table and then sat at the bottom.
The table full of delicious dishes exudes a rich and tempting aroma.
But Young Master Sun held his cheeks with his hands, staring blankly, his mind filled with the lonely orchid in the valley.
So beautiful!
Heartbeat!
But he doesn't deserve it, it hurts!
Seeing this, Old Chen served Sun Shao a bowl of delicious mushroom chicken soup: "Sun Shao, drink some hot soup. I'll tell you some interesting news to cheer you up."
"What news?"
"This morning, the Xiang Group's stock price hit the limit down, and the head of the Xiang family was in a coma and was admitted to the hospital. Xiang Ze also suffered a concussion and it is estimated that he will not be able to do anything for a while. The Xiang family is in a mess, and even the Lu family has been dragged in to clean up the mess."
Sun Weimeng clapped his hands on the table, "Great! Great! I will drink three bowls of soup for this good news."
He picked up the soup bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
Qiao Xi teased, "Is it okay to be heartbroken?"
Sun Weimeng said proudly: "It's good to be an emperor with three thousand beauties. All the beauties are mine. But Guan Jingtan is the only one I have. I am a superficial person, but I can't bear to give up such a large forest."
The best person doesn't have to be owned.
It's also good to admire from a distance.
Once he came to terms with it, he felt enlightened. He ate well, slept well, and kept himself in good health so he could have more sex.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips and smiled.
Sun Shao certainly doesn't look like the type of person who can stay faithful and stay married to one person, and it's good that his life is rich and colorful now.
"Old Chen, tell me more about those bastards in the Xiang family."
He gossiped to Lao Chen.
There was a bowl of mushroom and chicken soup in front of Qiao Xi. She turned her head slightly and saw Huo Xingzhou's handsome face.
His eyes seemed to be filled with seductive hooks, and he looked like he could take her out on the spot at any time, which made people blush and their hearts beat fast.
He said, "Drink more to replenish your body."
Qiao Xi held the bowl, concealing her expression and drinking in small sips.
…
Afternoon.
There were some gifts piled up in the living room, and Lao Chen put them all in the trunk one by one.
Qiao Xi looked at it doubtfully. This style of gift-giving was not like the Huo family.
Most of these gifts were valuable medicinal herbs for health, as well as many items suitable for the elderly and some jewelry. It was estimated that the total amount was several million, which was quite generous.
She asked Huo Xingzhou: "Whose family are you going to visit?"
"The Li family."
Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "The Liu family asked me to pass these things on. There is also a very important item that needs to be delivered to Madam Li in person. When I arrive in the imperial capital, I will naturally pay a visit."
Qiao Xi looked at him: "Really?"
In fact, she didn't really want to go to the Li family, nor did she expect the Li family to take care of her much in the imperial capital.
Just don't make trouble.
If the Xiang family and the Lu family wanted to make trouble for her, they would not care about the face of the Li family.
Huo Xingzhou replied with a puzzled look: "Yeah."
"I don't believe it. You don't look like a kind person. If it's something from the Liu family that needs to be transferred to the Li family, just send Old Chen. I always feel that you have other purposes."
Her premonition was true.
Huo Xingzhou didn't tell her clearly.
He just nodded and praised, "Our Xixi really understands me more and more."
A hint of indifference flashed across his brows. "It's true that you can go to the Li family this time or not. But just because you don't care about some things doesn't mean I don't care. It's just a precaution. Sometimes small characters can stir up huge waves, so I'll give them a heads-up in advance."
Small role?
Qiao Xi didn't think much about it.
"So we're leaving now?"
"Um."
Huo Xingzhou held her hand, interlocking their fingers.
"Let's go."
Old Chen had the car ready outside the door. The Huo family's garden villa was only about a kilometer away from the Li family's, but because there were so many gifts, they decided to drive there.
"Master, Madam, please get in the car first. We'll be there in no time. We've already called the Li family in advance."
Lao Chen is a man of rough but subtle character, and of great wisdom that appears foolish.
He is very thorough and rarely makes mistakes.
Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou looked at each other and got into the car.
Lao Chen drove the car and arrived at the gate of Li's house in a short while. The huge Li's house only had some servants and two masters.
Old Mrs. Li and Li Nianqi were both waiting for the distinguished guests at the entrance, showing them full courtesy.
This time, there was not a trace of impatience on Li Nianqi's face.
Instead, it carries a hint of expectation.
