Chapter 860 I will take good care of your sweetheart

Qiao Xi has an intuition.

At first there was no movement in the room, perhaps no one was there.

As Zhong Yi said, the sound insulation in the cruise ship lounge is not particularly good.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw the big window, and looking outside, it seemed to be a terrace with a view.

She had some doubts in her heart, so she spoke out directly.

Zhong Yi was somewhat helpless: "How can I hide nothing from you? He and I do have some things to do, and I'll tell you when we're done. But no matter who asks, you have to say that I was at the party the whole time."

"I know. Is there anything else I can help you with?"

"No, be careful. It won't be peaceful tonight, and the Pei family is very narrow-minded. Mrs. Pei's mind is even narrower than the eye of a needle, so you have to be on guard. Huo Xingzhou arranged so many bodyguards for you, and he also took this into consideration."

Qiao Xi nodded without asking any more questions: "You should also pay attention to safety."

"Know."

She stood up and said, "I'll be leaving now."

"Let's go together. With you as the focal point, everyone can see me."

A smile appeared on Qiao Xi's pretty face, "Let's go."

Zhong Yi's eyes were filled with a sincere smile. She didn't mind appearing in front of others with him. Even if those people had dirty words, she didn't mean to do that.

Zhong Yi and Qiao Xi walked out of the room one after another and went to the banquet hall.

Their appearance together indeed attracted a lot of people's attention.

"It turns out that Master Zhong is here! Someone was looking for him just now, but I didn't expect that he was with Madam Huo."

"The eldest son of the Zhong family is here too. Will they quarrel today?"

Zhong Yi wandered around.

Qiao Xi also completed her task and sat in the previous corner, watching Zhong Yi casually chatting with a few people, and even deliberately running to Zhong Lingxiao to provoke him.

Seven o'clock.

The banquet hall gradually became quiet.

The lights around were dim.

A spotlight fell on the spiral staircase.

Pei Qian and Feng Nanxi dressed up and appeared at the staircase, both with formal smiles on their faces. The two walked down hand in hand, looking quite a good match.

“A perfect match!”

"It's just that the woman looks a little young, not yet of legal marriage age. If she were, today would be the wedding banquet."

"I think Pei Qian is reluctant. Is he, a playboy, really going to settle down? How can a little girl compare to the women he dated before? I think Zhao Zhenmei is more in line with his taste."

"Hehe, Zhao Zhenmei is his eldest sister-in-law's younger sister, and she is a few years older than Pei Qian."

The guests discussed the matter privately, but they still congratulated him openly.

The newly-married fiancé walked into the crowd and was introduced to the guests by Zhao Yaru and Pei Zheng.

Feng Nanxi's face was frozen with smile, she held the wine glass and looked at the crowd, not daring to reveal any of her thoughts.

Pei Zheng's voice sounded beside him: "This is the second young master of the Zhong family, a very capable man."

The tone seemed sarcastic.

Pei Qian snorted coldly and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhong."

The glass clinked with his champagne, making a crisp sound, and then he took a sip in response.

But I drank the whole glass of champagne.

Feng Nanxi pursed her lips, took a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray and handed it to Zhong Yi: "Hello, Mr. Zhong, thank you for coming to my engagement party."

During the exchange of glances, Feng Nanxi understood what he meant.

She passed the glass forward again: "Mr. Zhong, don't you want to drink the wine I offer you?"

Zhong Yi smiled and reached out to take it.

But the glass fell and the champagne poured over him.

Feng Nanxi hurriedly said in a panic: "I'm sorry, Master Zhong, I didn't mean it. Are you okay?"

"Puchi." Pei Qian couldn't help but laugh.

It's really refreshing.

Pei Zheng glared at him and said calmly, "Mr. Zhong, why don't you change your clothes first? My future sister-in-law is young and hasn't seen many big occasions. It's inevitable that she will be nervous when she sees someone like you. Don't blame her for being clumsy."

"I'm not that stingy. Excuse me."

Zhong Yi flicked the wine that was hanging on his body with his fingers, then left with a calm expression.

Pei Zheng looked at his back as he went upstairs and smiled.

Pei Qian lowered his voice and said to Feng Nanxi: "I didn't expect you to have this trick! You made him feel embarrassed and dared not say anything. I have long been disgusted with Zhong Yi, but fortunately you are sensible. You know that we will be a family after we get engaged, so we must act in unity in the future."

He looked quite happy.

Feng Nanxi pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled fakely.

There is no such thing as united front, it's just the orders of the financial sponsor.

She did it to make money.

"My brother admires you very much."

"Really? Thank you."

Pei Qian seemed to have not heard the perfunctory tone in her words, and said kindly: "From today on, you are my fiancée. I will try my best to treat you well."

Feng Nanxi felt a little disgusted after hearing this, "Where were you last night?"

Pei Qian coughed twice, feeling a little guilty: "Of course I'm at home. I'm getting engaged."

"Oh, then everything I heard was false."

"What did you hear?"

Feng Nanxi curled her lips and said, "I heard that you held a party to say goodbye to being single and invited many beautiful women. You even left the hotel this morning. Is that true?"

"…Who spread it? How irresponsible! Don't think too much. I definitely didn't do such a thing. We Pei family members are all very loyal. Look at my brother, he has been married for so many years, has he ever found another woman?"

He did go find a woman last night and spent the night with her. He thought Feng Nanxi was just a little girl and he would just treat her well in the future.

He can still enjoy the best of both worlds, but he just needs to do it more covertly so that his family won't find out.

Fortunately, my brother has been very busy recently and has not paid too much attention to him.

Feng Nanxi did not comment on his explanation. She knew very well what kind of quagmire the Pei family was in.

The two of them followed Pei Zheng around and finally finished toasting.

Feng Nanxi used the excuse of being too tired and went straight back to the lounge.

She avoided the crowd when she went upstairs and slipped into the room she liked.

I just didn't expect that what I saw was a thin piece of white muscle.

He was changing his clothes, holding a white shirt in his hand.

Feng Nanxi's cheeks turned red unconsciously and she looked away. Zhong Yi glanced at her, then calmly put on his shirt and buttoned it up slowly.

"Why didn't you lock the door when you changed your clothes?"

"How did you get in when I locked the door?"

Zhong Yi put on his shirt and a new coat, "I have to go out for a while. If someone asks, you can cover it up for me and say I was in the lounge and didn't go out."

"good."

"Take care of Qiao Xi for me. I think your mother-in-law will be restless in the future."

Feng Nanxi was a little disdainful: "What future mother-in-law? It's all fake. Don't worry, I will take good care of your sweetheart."

As Feng Nanxi finished speaking, she heard a sound beside her.

She turned around and saw that handsome man had already jumped out of the window. His eyes were full of recklessness as he looked back at her, and then he left.

Feng Nanxi touched her chest and felt a sudden sense of blockage.
