Chapter 414: Evil (43)
Self-indulgent.
From the beginning to the end, he was the only one. He wanted to take Qiao Xi as his own in this way, and to leave a special and indelible presence in her heart.
Zhan Qi did it.
He may have succeeded in leaving a different place in Qiao Xi's heart. The girl's disgust towards him was stronger than ever before.
Even if he disobeyed Yan Shen, he had crossed the bottom line.
When Qiao Xi was about to be taken away.
The girl could also betray him without hesitation. From beginning to end, Qiao Xi never chose him once, even if it was a lie.
From the moment Yan Shen sentenced him to death.
He has been eliminated from the ranks and has lost his qualifications.
What would follow would be countless troubles, as well as the expensive medical expenses that the Yan family had previously paid for him. Zhan Qi didn't care about atonement for all the sins he had committed in the past.
“Hahahahahaha…”
He took a few steps back and suddenly burst into laughter.
This crazy look is like a person walking on the edge of a knife, and the sad laughter cannot cover up the heavy emotions surging underneath.
His eyes were bloodshot, and even his pupils seemed to be dyed a terrifying scarlet.
His handsome face was twisted and hideous, and he looked fierce and ferocious, like a ghost.
"Qiao Xi, given your relationship with me, do you really think you can escape?"
Can't get it?
You must get it even if you can’t get it!
He was mad, and even if he was torn to pieces and left with no intact body, he would drag Qiao Xi down with him to hell to be buried with him, and die together.
Looking at the girl's slender back as she turned away.
There was no intention of paying any attention to him, and the fierceness and madness in Zhan Qi's eyes became even more intense. Anyway, the rest of his life was ruined.
Qiao Xi——
He won't let go either.
The wind on the rooftop gradually grew colder, sweeping down with a chill. Failure to quell Zhan Qi's violent fury would undoubtedly lead to his death if he were thrown from this height.
He is going to die.
I also want to drag Qiao Xi to die with me.
Even if he died, he would not let Qiao Xi leave.
Zhan Qi suddenly attacked with extreme swiftness. Never underestimate the potential that people can unleash in times of crisis. Even Yan Shen was momentarily stunned and unable to react.
And wait until he sensed the breath of danger.
It's too late.
Qiao Xi was standing right in front of him. It was too late for the girl to dodge now. When Yan Shen had just come up with this idea, Zhan Qi was already approaching.
However.
Qiao Xi, who was standing in front of him, seemed to have discovered that her shoelaces were loose.
The girl quickly squatted down to tie her shoelaces.
Zhan Qi's vision went blank, and he stopped abruptly. However, he couldn't retract his swung hand. Inertia forced him to clench it into a fist, but he simply didn't consider retracting it. After all, they were already broken up, so this little bit didn't matter.
This punch hit Yan Shen's face hard.
“Plop.”
Yan Shen lost his balance and stumbled back a few steps, bumping into the door. He was hit so hard by the punch that he saw stars.
Zhan Qi had practiced it after all.
He had fought so many times before, and he didn't care about the severity of his blows. After punching Yan Shen, he decided to go all out.
He grabbed Yan Shen's collar and pulled him over.
Throwing punch after punch.
Yan Shen reacted quickly after the punch and immediately took action to counterattack. He swung his fist at Zhan Qi without hesitation, and the two of them quickly wrestled together.
Every move is a life-threatening one.
Qiao Xi tied her shoelaces, looked at them, quietly walked around them, quickly opened the door and ran downstairs.
【???】
The little white cat system was stunned.
Are we just going to leave the male protagonists here to fight?
[I'm going to find someone. Is a weak woman like me trying to get involved and persuade them? The right thing to do is to quickly find someone who can handle this matter!]
She ran downstairs and went straight to the office.
The little person who was excited inside also jumped up and cheered. The dogs were biting each other and their mouths were full of fur. But she didn't go over and ran to find someone.
Is there anything wrong with this?
Qiao Xi simply calmed down and immediately got back to work.
When stepping into the office.
Her expression had already turned into one of nervousness and worry, and since she had run over, she almost couldn't breathe while speaking.
When the report comes in.
Her pretty face was pale and she looked panicked and frightened, and she spoke the story in a halting manner.
The leaders sitting in the office heard this.
How can this be tolerated!
If the young master of the Yan family was beaten here and seriously injured and hospitalized, and the Yan family knew about it, they would have no chance of getting the next investment!
Qiao Xi’s worrying drama is not over yet.
The leaders, relying on their immense power, rushed to the rooftop in a hurry. When they arrived there, they happened to see Zhan Qi grabbing Yan Shen's neck and forcing him to the edge of the rooftop.
It looked like the person was about to fall.
They dared not delay any longer, and several people worked together to hold Zhan Qi and pull the man away. They quickly went to help the unconscious Yan Shen, called an emergency number and took him to the hospital.
It was quite a big deal.
The beeping sound of the ambulance faded into the distance.
Qiao Xi returned to her seat and calmly did what she was supposed to do. Everyone around her looked at her in amazement, as if they had seen a ghost.
There was a commotion downstairs outside, but despite the chaos this morning, she was safe and sound.
Zhan Qi was taken away for questioning.
But he seemed to be extremely irritable and couldn't even carry out the most basic communication. He just called out and said he wanted to see Qiao Xi.
no way.
They had no choice but to call Qiao Xi over for questioning.
The girl did come and saw Zhan Qi being controlled in the office. When she met his scarlet eyes, the coldness in his eyes faded a little the moment he saw her.
He smiled silently.
It was so gentle that it was unlike him, and it was a little weird.
When he saw Qiao Xi, he was like a child being soothed and stroked. He didn't show any abnormal temper, and seemed to have calmed down. The people who controlled Zhan Qi were also very surprised.
"so……"
The leading leader looked at Qiao Xi, hesitant to speak and about to ask a question.
Qiao Xi responded tactfully.
Glancing at the nonchalant Zhan Qi, she said, "He is my brother. I will take him back."
The leader sighed.
She put on a dignified and airy manner and lectured him, probably saying that as an older sister, she should take good care of her brother and not let him do such a thing. Also, Yan Shen was unconscious due to his serious injuries.
Now in the hospital.
Zhan Qi should take responsibility, and the specific matters need to be decided after Yan Shen wakes up.
Qiao Xi nodded in agreement.
The leaders were quite satisfied with her submissive attitude, but Zhan Qi couldn't avoid a reprimand.
Qiao Xi was present.
The young man seemed to have restrained all his violent temper. After listening to what those old antiques said, they let him go.
Zhan Qi followed Qiao Xi out of the office.
The girl ignored him.
He followed Qiao Xi, following her every step. Yan Shen was gone, and the trigger for his rampage was gone. Those injuries were enough to keep Yan Shen in bed for a long time, so he was naturally in a good mood.
Restrain your edge and anger.
When he followed behind Qiao Xi, the handsome young man with red lips and white teeth looked particularly peaceful and not at all aggressive.
He wanted to hold Qiao Xi's hand.
When they just met, Qiao Xi didn't even look at him, and just pushed him away with a cold attitude.
Zhan Qi looked innocent, but not angry.
His greedy eyes lingered on the girl's cheek, looking at her profile, the slender white back of her neck exposed after her ponytail, and the graceful curves.
The ponytail swayed slightly.
Just like her steady and orderly steps, meticulous and serious, she gracefully swung a beautiful and nimble arc, slowly hooking into Zhan Qi's heart.
"Qiao Xi."
He followed the girl and called out to her.
“…”
No one was paying attention to me.
"...Sister?" The girl paused in her tracks after hearing the tentative call. However, Qiao Xi pursed her lips, unwilling to look at him, and showed no intention of paying attention to him.
But at least there was some reaction.
He had never called Qiao Xi that, nor had he ever considered her a real person. Because Qiao Xi was kind to him, he used the greatest malice to speculate on the girl's thoughts.
Until now, this name.
Suddenly pulled Zhan Qi back to his senses.
Could it be that from the very beginning, Qiao Xi treated him as a real brother. That's why she did all the housework, gave him medicine and tutored him, and that's why she treated him so well?
Was it really such a simple purpose at the beginning?
No other ideas?
Zhan Qi pursed his lips slightly, his chest heavy with a suffocating sourness and pain. The feeling of being gradually pulled away became empty and void. Looking back, he realized that everything he had done was meaningless.
It's too bitter.
He didn't like this kind of feeling, the kind that he only realized belatedly, which had a light yet bitter taste like absinthe.
"……elder sister."
He opened his lips, and his low voice was hoarse and slightly rough.
Qiao Xi's thick, curled eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she was trying hard to suppress herself and hide the emotions in her eyes. The girl clenched her hands, and her knuckles turned slightly white from excessive force.
"You don't deserve it, Zhan Qi."
As he listened to the girl's words, his eyes gradually darkened.
What was brewing inside him was no longer a dangerous and violent out-of-control emotion; it was as if he was trying his best to hide the animal nature etched in his bones. After being hurt so deeply, it drove people mad, and he also understood the pain.
Only then did he put away all his thorns and fangs and clumsily learn to love.
Trying to do it this way.
Get closer to the girl who was once hurt by him.
Is this what love is?
No one gave him an answer, nor did anyone teach him. Only when he was truly hurt, and the endless emptiness and coldness left after the madness, did he realize that he couldn't leave Qiao Xi.
It doesn't matter if I die.
Whether he's alive or not, he can't leave, and he doesn't want to leave.
He will go crazy.
He would lose control, become even less like himself, more violent and violent than ever before, and become a complete madman.
He said.
Could you please not leave without saying a word? Could you please not go with Yan Shen?
Even if Qiao Xi didn't tell him where she went last night, he probably knew what would happen to the girl. He was also jealous and out of control, but what he feared most was that Qiao Xi would quietly leave his world one day.
Not a trace was left.
He wanted to hold Qiao Xi's hand again, but as expected, the girl avoided him again.
Zhan Qi pursed his lips, but ultimately said nothing.
How well he knew he was unworthy.
She used such a clumsy drama to constantly deceive and hypnotize herself. From the very beginning, she simply wanted to hurt Qiao Xi and make her stay away from Yan Shen and fall in love with her.
Maybe you've already lost your qualifications.
But he didn't regret it. Regret was useless for what had already happened. Even if he could turn back time, he would probably still make the same choice.
So it is destined.
Naturally, he didn't deserve Qiao Xi's sincere treatment.
Following the girl through the corridor, I looked out at the clear, sunny sky, where leisurely white clouds were evenly scattered across the vast blue sky. There was always someone with a bright future.
He reaped the consequences.
Sooner or later, sins must be atonement, and the time of judgment has come.
He has no tomorrow.
"Qiao Xi, if there is another year, what wish would you make for it?"
The girl paused when she heard his words.
A faint glance passed over his face, and each word was light and firm: "I never want to see you again, stay away from scum like you. Is this answer satisfactory?"
"Yeah, it's good."
Zhan Qi also didn't want to meet Qiao Xi again.
At that time, he must have been even more destitute and embarrassed than he is now.
He was a rotten man, covered in filthy blood. He had grown up struggling in the mire, harboring hatred for the world. Rotten to the core, beyond redemption.
He knows, but he won't change.
After all, I don't have that kind of fate to convince myself to be kind and great. Since I have to be a bad person, then I will be a bad person, for this boring life, for this terrible life.
It's not a perfect ending to the painting.
He used to think that it was meaningless to live a miserable life, and no one would care no matter how much trouble he caused.
Just be unscrupulous and do whatever you want.
Live one day at a time and live from day to day.
Now……
I'm not that averse to it. I'll just linger on.
Anyway, those things that cannot be escaped will come.
Zhan Qi narrowed his eyes and looked at Qiao Xi in front of him. There was an imperceptible smile in his usually cold eyes, and his voice sounded half teasing and half frivolous.
"Qiao Xi, has anyone ever told you that you are beautiful?"
"……roll."
In the limited time he had, he continued to numb himself like this, clinging to the warmth she offered him until the moment he woke up from his dream and faced the cruel reality. This was the only tenderness the world had left for this evil man, him.
