Chapter 706 Zhong Yi, You Owe Me an Explanation

"Haha..."

Huo Sijiao laughed so hard that she hiccuped, and tried her best to embarrass Lu Yingxue.

Lu Yingxue glared at her, poured a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to Zhong Yi, saying: "Then drink some chicken soup. You are weak and it is just right to replenish your body... If it is inconvenient for you, let me feed you."

Zhong Yi didn't even want to put on a show with her.

He just turned his head and said, "If you have nothing to do, go back."

Lu Yingxue's expression froze. "How can I let you stay here alone? You have been doing business with so many tricks over the years, and I am worried about you."

Wan Jiang said softly, "Miss Lu, I am here to accompany the young master. Don't worry. You look very tired. Why don't you go home and rest?"

Lu Yingxue was furious: "I..."

Wan Jiang knew that Zhong Yi didn't want to see Lu Yingxue at all, so he advised: "Ms. Lu, I believe you have investigated the incident last night through your own channels. Mr. Zhong is very weak now and needs to rest."

Lu Yingxue's face gradually turned cold and she was filled with resentment.

"Wanjiang, do you mean that I am noisy?"

"I don't dare."

Wan Jiang didn't dare to say that to Lu Yingxue, so he just reminded her tactfully, "But after you came in, you did say a lot."

When Lu Yingxue heard Wan Jiang's words, her face fell.

She looked at Zhong Yi, but found that Zhong Yi said nothing and didn't say a word for her.

It's obvious that Zhong Yi also wants to get rid of her!

Lu Yingxue was filled with resentment, thinking that Qiao Xi must be there, and Zhong Yi wanted to show her devotion!

But Ye Ying is already by his side!

Why are you pretending to be so affectionate!

News came from Zhong Lingxiao saying that it was Qiao Xi who saved Zhong Yi last night, and Zhong Yi would have died originally!

Zhong Yi likes Qiao Xi more, right?

Lu Yingxue was furious, but in the end she still saved some face for herself.

She stood up straight and said, "In that case, I will go back. You should take good care of yourself and don't worry the old lady and the people at home. I will clear up the rumors outside for you. I will come to see you tomorrow..."

She felt a tightness in her chest and left the ward without even taking her thermos with her!

After Lu Yingxue left, the ward became much quieter.

Zhong Yi's gaze swept over Huo Sijiao and Lao Chen very slowly, without any warmth in her eyes.

Huo Sijiao noticed that the atmosphere was a little unusual, pursed her lips and said unnaturally: "Sister-in-law, I'll wait for you outside."

"Madam, I'm going out first."

Lao Chen and Huo Sijiao left the ward one after another.

And closed the door.

Huo Sijiao stood in the corridor and asked in a low voice, "Old Chen, I was so scared by your look just now. Tell me the truth. What is the relationship between Mr. Zhong and my sister-in-law?"

It was obvious that Master Zhong had something to say to his sister-in-law. The vague connection between the two of them seemed like a world that outsiders could not penetrate.

It made her feel a sense of crisis for her brother.

"Didn't Young Master Sun tell you?"

Old Chen thought that since Sun Weimeng had such a good relationship with the eldest lady, he would definitely tell her.

I didn't expect that the eldest lady knew nothing.

When Huo Sijiao heard this, her pretty face was filled with anger: "What! Even Sun Weimeng knows this secret, but you didn't tell me? You are all on guard against me and treat me as an outsider, right?"

How could Sun Weimeng have such virtue and ability!

"Old Chen, if you don't tell me today, I will...I will go find a piece of tofu and kill myself! I will not let you go even if I become a ghost!"

Old Chen thought that this was not a particularly big secret. Seeing the increasingly close relationship between Master Zhong and the Huo family, the eldest lady would know it sooner or later.

So he said in a low voice: "I can tell you, but you can't tell anyone outside."

"OK."

Huo Sijiao listened attentively.

Old Chen whispered something in her ear.

Huo Sijiao took a breath of cool air and turned around to rush into the ward.

Old Chen quickly grabbed her!

"Miss, you can't go in!"

Huo Sijiao looked anxious, but didn't dare to make any loud noise.

He could only blush and whisper, "That was my sister-in-law's childhood sweetheart who died a long time ago! Now that the childhood sweethearts have recognized each other, I have to go and keep an eye on them!"

It's obvious that Master Zhong is coveting my sister-in-law!

No wonder he had repeatedly created opportunities to get close to his sister-in-law.

It turns out that this had been planned for a long time when I was in Haicheng!

Damn it!

Sun Weimeng was hesitant when he made the phone call, and he jumped up and down when he heard that his sister-in-law was going to visit the patient!

No wonder my brother is jealous. He has to drink this bottle of vinegar!

"Don't worry, Miss. There are three people in the room."

"Wan Jiang is his man!"

"Uh... Mr. Zhong is seriously injured and can't even get up. Let's wait outside. You have to believe that the young lady knows her limits. She has never done anything beyond the rules."

When Huo Sijiao heard this, she turned off the engine with a bitter face.

She squatted in the corridor, staring at the door with deep hatred.

She almost wanted to poke a hole in the ward door so that if there was any strange noise inside, she would rush in to protect her sister-in-law's innocence.

…

In the ward.

Wan Jiang moved a chair and placed it next to Qiao Xi and said, "Miss Qiao, please sit down for a while. I'll pour you a glass of water, or do you prefer tea?"

"Warm water is fine."

"OK."

Wan Jiang took a clean glass, poured a glass of warm water for Qiao Xi and handed it to her.

"Thank you."

Qiao Xi held the glass in both hands and sat on a chair beside the bed.

She took a sip of warm water and didn't know where to start.

There are so many things on my mind, including anger, resentment, doubt, heartache, regret and confusion.

"Wanjiang."

Zhong Yi patted his chest, coughed a few times and said, "Pour out the chicken soup. It smells too greasy and makes me sick."

"yes."

Wan Jiang took the chicken soup that Lu Yingxue brought to the inner bathroom.

Zhong Yi's fingers gently pulled the corner of the quilt, and the lie that had been told for so long was suddenly exposed.

Now that she has calmed down, she doesn't know how to calm the anger in her heart.

For a moment, the room was too quiet.

No one spoke first.

In the ward, sunlight shines through the glass onto the ground.

Such a winter day, such warm sunlight.

It always reminds me of the past.

Those difficult but happy youth years.

After a long time, Qiao Xi spoke first.

She half-closed her eyes and whispered, "Why did you fake your death back then?"

Yi is her first friend!

Only friend!

A friend she holds close to her heart!

"When the hospital told me that you had died, I didn't believe it. Later, Master Cheng held a funeral for you, and after cremation, there was only a small box. I always felt that you would not lie to me, so I slowly admitted it."

Qiao Xi's heart tightened and the corners of her eyes turned red.

"It's only now that I realize you're not dead. Do you owe me an explanation?"

She raised her eyes and looked at him, her eyes were filled with tears.

She hated being deceived and being kept in the dark like a fool.
