Chapter 954: A Wise Man Does Not Fall in Love
Qiao Xi said firmly, "Yes."
Zhong Yi made that decision in order to save her and the Huo family. Otherwise, there would be no need for him to fight to the death.
Qiao Xi won't be an ungrateful person.
"Then I'd rather not be able to heal myself."
"Don't say that." Qiao Xi felt upset. "Being supported by someone else is not a good thing. Besides, how can someone like you be willing to do that?"
"Qiao Xi, the thing I regret most is leaving Moon Village. I think if I have to do it again, I will crawl to your side even if I have to fall off the cliff." Zhong Yi said lightly.
There was an inexplicable sourness on his face.
During this time, he always dreamed about the past.
Maybe I can't see anymore, but the darkness before my eyes always reminds me of that stormy day.
There are always times when people have to do something they have no choice but to do. If they do so without considering the consequences, that will be their biggest regret.
Qiao Xi put her hand on his shoulder, soothing him: "It's good that you're back in the capital. People always fantasize about the road they haven't walked before. Maybe you regretted staying in Moon Village. You should have had a brighter future. Don't you think so?"
A light laugh escaped from Zhong Yi's throat: "How did you become so good at comforting people?"
She used to be a little bit quiet, sullen and seldom talkative.
I don’t even know how to comfort people.
Now it seems to be more gentle and tolerant.
Even though he couldn't see her, he could imagine her expression.
"Maybe it's because I've been around him for so long that I've gradually become what I am now."
Both knew who "he" was referring to.
Zhong Yi asked, "Do you like it?"
"I like it." Qiao Xi's eyes were bright. "I like myself now. I feel that nothing can defeat me. No uneasiness, no anxiety. I just need to do what I want to do."
She used to live in constant fear, worrying about poverty, worrying about the people around her, and worrying about the future.
There is always a lot of depression in my heart.
She hid her feelings and dared not tell anyone.
But Huo Xingzhou pried her mouth open little by little, even though she didn't like the way it was done at first.
A man forcefully invades my heart, and then gently takes possession of it.
He wanted her to talk about all her troubles.
Want her to become more confident and generous.
Ask her to confront intimacy.
Ask her to be open and fearless.
Loving someone is like raising a flower, and she was raised very well.
Zhong Yi's tone was a little sad. "It seems that you really like him. Even if I try to dig him out, I can't dig him away."
Qiao Xi was very calm: "If you really wanted to undermine me, you wouldn't have said it out loud."
She could sense that Zhong Yi's attitude had changed.
The side of him that he showed in front of Huo Xingzhou was just to deliberately provoke him.
"Maybe you feel you owe me something, so you really go with me."
"You won't make that choice and embarrass me." Qiao Xi knew how soft his heart was. Even though he had forged an invulnerable body in the imperial capital over the years, Zhong Yi in her heart had never changed.
"Qiao Xi, you really have me in your hands."
Zhong Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
Qiao Xi squeezed his shoulder and said, "I can't pay you back, but I will definitely cure your illness. You have to believe me and listen to the doctor's advice in the future."
"Know."
"Zhong Yi, if you can't get better, I will never be at peace for the rest of my life."
"Then I must try to get better." Zhong Yi said softly, "How many months is the baby in your belly?"
"It's been three months."
"Time flies." Zhong Yi's tone was very gentle, "When the child is born, can I find a godparent?"
He thought that he might never get married in his lifetime.
It is even more impossible to have children.
One of the reasons was Huo Xingzhou, so it would be good for him to take advantage of the fact that Qiao Xi's guilt had reached its peak and have a godfather for her.
"I have no objection, but I also have to ask the child's father what he thinks. He... is actually a jealous person, and I have to take him into consideration now." When Qiao Xi said this, there was a hint of smile in her tone, and it was warm to hear.
It makes people feel that she lives a happy life.
Zhong Yi didn’t know what he was holding on to before.
Only now, in these words, he could feel his obsession dissipating step by step.
Why did he have to take her to his side?
Is it possible to never extricate ourselves from this muddy water of the imperial capital?
In Haicheng, Huo Xingzhou could protect her for her whole life. She could do whatever she wanted, but in the imperial capital, she would always be implicated by him.
Zhong Yi said calmly: "I think Huo Xingzhou is not a jealous person, he is a jealous person."
Every time jealousy is everywhere.
Qiao Xi did not argue, but pushed Zhong Yi deeper into the flowers. The morning air was cool, and there was some cool scent of plants, which was very comfortable to smell. It was also good for his body.
It seemed like they hadn't walked along a road so quietly for a long time.
And the second floor terrace.
Sun Weimeng pointed at the two people in the garden and said, "Huo Xingzhou, how could you tolerate this? Qiao Xi's hand was on his shoulder just now. I think if Zhong Yi could see it, he would have taken action a long time ago. You are the only one who can keep calm when there is such a big rival in love at home."
"Listen to what they are saying! I heard words like 'undermining the wall' and 'children'. Zhong Yi is really harboring evil intentions!" In fact, the second-floor terrace is far from the garden, but it is quiet in the morning, and some words will be blown into people's ears by the wind.
With just these few words, Sun Weimeng had already woven a tragic love story in his mind.
"Huo Xingzhou, you should be more careful. I think Zhong Yi is also a green tea. He knows how to make Qiao Xi feel distressed. You should also pretend to be weak!"
Sun Weimeng said earnestly, "I don't want this fairy couple of yours to be separated by an outsider."
Huo Xingzhou retracted his gaze and said coldly: "Are you trying to sow discord?"
"My big brother! How could I sow discord? I was clearly preparing for a rainy day! You didn't even take my good intentions to heart. This really puts me in a difficult position." Sun Weimeng felt bitter.
Huo Xingzhou didn't want to listen to him nagging.
He used to think that being liked was threatening, but now...
He was very sure who Qiao Xi would spend her life with, so he had nothing to fear. Once he recovered from his injury, he could leave. There would not be many chances for them to meet again in the future.
"You care so much about my feelings, have you cleaned up your own mess?"
"I..." Sun Weimeng felt heartbroken, "A wise man doesn't fall in love. I don't have any feelings."
Huo Xingzhou sneered with a hint of sarcasm.
Sun Weimeng felt even more frustrated. He and Xia Sisi had long become a thing of the past.
Knock knock.
There was a knock on the master bedroom door.
Old Chen strode in and said softly, "Young Master, there's news over there."
