Chapter 492 He Gambled His Life on Family Ties
He is lying!
How could it not hurt?
But Qiao Xi didn't say anything, for she was afraid that she would choke up uncontrollably with sobs as soon as she opened her mouth.
She took out a piece of disinfectant alcohol cotton and wiped his wound bit by bit.
Xu Yunye clenched his hands into fists, tensing his joints to endure the stimulating pain.
He didn't even say a word.
Qiao Xi's tears almost rolled down.
His behavior can only indicate one thing.
He's used to it!
“Wow!”
Sun Weimeng bared his teeth and screamed, breaking all the warmth and sadness.
He put his hands on his chin and shouted, "Xu Yunye, you are awesome! You said it didn't hurt and it didn't hurt. You didn't even say a word when I wiped it with alcohol! Six!"
"You are a genius! I thought we were doomed tonight, but you managed to turn the tables! Lu Yan really received an invitation from the Glory Club, what about you?"
Sun Weimeng's face is full of gossip.
Xu Yunye said frankly: "TN Club once invited me to be a racing driver."
"So you are the number one in the Chinese racing circle! Lu Yan is unlucky! Why don't you go to the club?"
"Maybe it's because I don't like racing." Xu Yunye lowered his eyes, looking a little lonely.
Sun Weimeng was even more curious: "If you don't like it, how did you develop such a special skill? You flew past Lu Yan with just that one move?"
Qiao Xi also looked at him curiously.
Xu Yunye was silent for a while, then said softly: "Maybe it's because I want something that doesn't belong to me. No talent can compare to risking one's life..."
Sun Weimeng, who was loved by his parents, didn't understand what he said, but Qiao Xi did.
Xu Yunye used his own life as a bet in order to attract the attention of Liu Huimin and Xu Guangyao.
However, he seemed to get nothing.
Some people spend their entire lives healing the pain of their childhood.
All Xu Yunye desires is family affection.
Qiao Xi gently pressed the gauze on his wound and bandaged it round and round.
Finally, he poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Xu Yunye, saying, "Brother, drink some water. Your lips look dry..."
Xu Yunye suddenly raised his head and looked at her in a daze: "What did you call me just now?"
Qiao Xi's eyes were filled with smiles: "Haven't you always wanted to be my brother? Then I will reluctantly agree."
"I should have been your brother. Xu Xingluo has called me that for so many years and I can't change it. I don't want to be her second brother, but I am willing to protect you. You are my only sister."
Xu Yunye looked at her and spoke seriously.
Qiao Xi's eyes turned red. "If you don't really like racing, can you please not participate in such dangerous competitions in the future? We... are all very worried about you."
"Okay, I promise."
Xu Yunye is very obedient.
Sun Weimeng clicked his tongue twice: "What a pity. Xu Yunye, I will honor the 10 million I promised you."
Xu Yunye said with some boasting: "Give it to my sister as pocket money."
Sun Weimeng said sourly: "Your sister earns hundreds of millions a night, what's the difference between you and her? Don't show off to me. Although I don't have a sister who is a miracle doctor, my relationship with Qiao Xi is deeper than yours! Qiao Xi, don't you agree?"
Xu Yunye also looked at Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xigan laughed twice. No matter which one she chose, it would be wrong.
"It looks like Xiaoyuan's midnight snack is ready. I'll go give some to Xingzhou."
She quickly found an excuse and ran away.
Sun Weimeng chuckled twice: "She and I are even closer. I'm sorry to hurt your feelings."
Xu Yunye glanced at him coldly: "Qiao Xi and I were born from the same mother, and there is telepathy between us. No one in this world can be closer than us, not even Huo Xingzhou."
Sun Weimeng made a face and said, "Go and tell Huo Xingzhou what's going on. I'll see how he deals with you."
A hint of darkness flashed in Xu Yunye's eyes.
He was somewhat bothered by the fact that Qiao Xi married Huo Xingzhou, whom he had never met, to celebrate her marriage. He felt that she had been wronged. Moreover, his uncle and brother-in-law seemed to have been at odds with each other.
…
the other side.
Qiao Xi took the tray and went upstairs with the midnight snack. Xiao Yuan prepared a bowl of wonton soup and a bowl of bird's nest. It was not suitable to eat greasy food at night, so these foods were the best to fill the stomach.
When she passed by the study, she saw that the light was not on, so she went straight to the master bedroom.
Qiao Xi gently pushed open the door of the master bedroom.
strangeness.
It's dark here too.
She pressed the switch next to the door, and the master bedroom became brighter.
Only then did she notice the man sitting on the armchair, his hands casually folded on his knees.
Hearing the noise, he turned around and looked at her, and the coldness in his black eyes seemed to have melted away the ice and snow.
His voice was a little hoarse: "Have you finished dealing with the matter downstairs?"
Qiao Xi placed the tray on the coffee table in front of him and said, "It's done. Why didn't you turn on the light?"
Huo Xingzhou reached out his hand and pulled her into his arms, sitting her on his lap. He said softly, "I just wanted to sit quietly for a while after coming back from the study, and forgot to turn on the light. Anyway, you will definitely turn on the light for me when you come."
His head was buried deep in her neck and he could smell the grapefruit lotion on her body.
Qiao Xi asked softly, "Were you unhappy on your way back just now?"
"Um."
He responded with a sexy voice.
"Why?"
Huo Xingzhou said in a low voice: "Because I wanted to share my joy with my wife, someone was so blind as to want to get into the car. But I can't just scold that person."
Qiao Xi smiled on her pretty face: "How can you be so jealous! I feel sorry for him. On the surface, he has a life of luxury, but in reality, he lives worse than me. I never knew that Xu Yunye raced with the intention of dying. In the future... I will be better to him."
Huo Xingzhou hugged her tighter: "No matter how good you are to him, you can't surpass me. But since he stood up for you tonight, I won't bother with him. I didn't expect him to do such a crazy thing."
Qiao Xi said softly, "I thought you knew everything and were very powerful."
The man kissed her on the cheek and said, "You were more powerful tonight. You brought people to stabilize the situation and evened the score in the gambling. You didn't lose any momentum at all in the other party's home court."
Qiao Xi turned her head and looked at him at eye level: "Huo Xingzhou, I can't always be a burden to you. I also hope that one day, you can be proud of me."
"You already did it."
He kissed the corner of her mouth passionately, with a lingering and intense affection. His big hand moved behind her and whispered, "Let's go to bed?"
He seemed to be in a particularly good mood tonight, perhaps because he saw another side of his beloved and found it difficult for him to control himself.
Qiao Xi quickly placed her hands on his chest and distanced herself from him.
Her red lips still had a hint of luster. She opened her lips and said, "No, I have a gift for you."
