"Of course, if you don't want to get your share of the family property, then be a mother and say nothing." Ling Hong Yu stood up as she spoke, preparing to leave.
"Mom."
Unwillingly, Zhang Yu sat up once again and helplessly promised, "Fine, I'll go try it out with my younger brother. However, mother, when Big Brother is angry, you must protect us both."
Ling Hong Yu laughed, "Got it, get up quickly. Your brother will be off work soon."
Zhang Yu began to mutter again.
Ling Hong Yu could no longer be bothered with him and left.
Zhang Yu and followed their mother's orders and went to the Haotian Group, wanting to steal Yi Xiu Jie's phone. In the end, it was the two brothers who laughed at Yi Xiu Jie's company for less than a minute, and Yi Xiu Jie raised his eyes and glared coldly at them. The two young masters quickly found excuses to escape, and didn't dare to steal Yi Xiu Jie's phone.
The sun had moved to the west and was sinking into the western mountains. Gradually, the black sky net started to fall on the earth.
Lu Yong Chun was unable to persuade Zhang Xiao to wear the evening gown that she had designed to accompany Mu Chen to the banquet. Fortunately, Zhang Xiao had tried out the clothes, allowing her to see the breathtaking scene of Zhang Xiao changing into a luxurious outfit. She could also see that there was a small problem with her clothes, so she didn't force Zhang Xiao to wear her evening dress, but brought the evening dress back instead.
This matter was just a small episode to Zhang Xiao, she did not take it to heart. She did not even pay attention to Ning Zhi Yuan's arrival and departure. What she was more concerned about was her good friend Ye Qing's situation. After Lu Yong Chun left, she first fed him until she was full, then let him play with dolls in the hall. She sat on the sofa and called Ye Qing.
These two days, Ye Qing was both bored and driven mad.
She was bored because she was injured and was hospitalized, unable to walk freely. She lay on the sickbed every day without a single familiar person to accompany her to chat. The two servants in Mu Family had taken good care of her, but they had never known each other before and could not find common topics to talk about.
It was because of Yi Xiu Jie.
Zhang Xiao couldn't come to the hospital to accompany her, so she said that he would take care of her, and every few days she would just stay inside the sickroom to watch over her.
That's right, Yi Xiu Jie's chaperone looked at her, but didn't talk much. Sometimes, when she asked him a few questions, he would either purse his lips in silence or squeeze out a few words. She finally managed to chase Yi Xiu Jie back to work, but it was only then did Yi Xiu Jie return in the evening.
When he received Zhang Xiao's call, it was as if his mouth was suddenly blocked by someone, and he suddenly obtained his freedom.
"Zhang Xiao, if you want me to live a few more days, hurry up and call Yi Xiu Jie. Please don't come see me again. Every time he comes, I get angry once. If he falls down and doesn't kill me, he'll kill me."
Zhang Xiao laughed and asked: "Xiujie went to see you again."
"Aren't you asking the obvious? Looking at the sky outside, it was already dark. He had already gotten off work. Honestly, as a dignified Vice President of Haotian Group, there's no need for you to entertain them." Ye Qing complained at Yi Xiu Jie in front of him.
Yi Xiu Jie was like a stone statue as he dragged a chair and sat in front of her sickbed.
"We've known each other for nine years, aren't you used to it?" Zhang Xiao laughed, "How are you feeling today, are you feeling better? I don't know if I have time to accompany you, but Mr. Mou is going to bring Mu Ya to attend the banquet that will be held in Lu Family, I am Mu Ya's nanny, and cannot escape."
Ye Qing replied in understanding, "I know that it's hard for you to do it now, it's alright. Didn't you arrange for people to take care of me? However, as long as you don't cause Yi Xiu Jie to appear in front of me again, I guarantee that I won't hurt anymore. As soon as I saw him come in, my injured foot hurt."
Zhang Xiao asked with concern, "Does it really hurt? Give the phone to Xiujie, and I'll get him to find a doctor to prescribe some medicine for you."
"Don't, don't, don't. I'm saying that once I see Yi Xiu Jie, I will feel pain in my feet, and if I can't see him, I won't feel pain." Ye Qing glanced at the man who was sitting in front of the bed, his expression unchanging.
She told him in front of him that he was wrong, and he could keep his cool.
Zhang Xiao laughed bitterly on the other side of the phone: "Ye Qing, for the sake of knowing him for the past nine years, you should at least save him some face. For you to say all these in front of him, he will be very upset."
"What's he upset about? She just sat by my bed and watched, her expression unchanging. Except for you, when Tarzan falls at his feet, he will not change his expression." Ye Qing just finished speaking, she suddenly stood up, extended her hand out, grabbed the fruit knife from the bedside table, and took it out of the box.
In the next moment, the fruit knife that was glowing with a cold light was swaying in front of Ye Qing's eyes, shocking her to the point that she did not even know how to speak anymore, as she carefully stared at the fruit knife that was swaying.
Was she exaggerating too much? Yi Xiu Jie became angry from embarrassment and wanted to kill him to silence him?
Or was she going to cut her tongue off because it was too long?
"Ye Qing, Ye Qing, what's wrong?" Unable to hear his good friend's voice, Zhang Xiao anxiously called out to him.
Zhang Xiao's shout brought Ye Qing back to reality as she shouted towards Zhang Xiao who was on the other side of the phone, "Zhang Xiao, your brother wants to kill me to silence him!" Ye Qing had not finished shouting when her robust body bent down, and her taut face moved closer to Ye Qing's. Her cries abruptly stopped, and she looked at him in panic.
"Would you like an apple? I'll peel it for you."
Yi Xiu Jie's puckered lips moved, as he forced out a sentence that was neither cold nor warm.
Ye Qing:...
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as a tacit agreement." Yi Xiu Jie stood up straight, and the fruit knife that was swaying in front of Ye Qing also left her place. He then picked up a large red apple from the fruit basket beside the bedside table, and sat back down on the chair.
Ye Qing was petrified on the spot.
Hearing Ye Qing's loud shout, Zhang Xiao was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud: "Ye Qing, don't worry, no one will touch you if Xiujie touches you."
Her stepbrother had feelings for Ye Qing, but they had been buried very deeply, to the point that after nine years of time, she could only see a hint, and Ye Qing had even less of that, she could not feel anything.
Ye Qing regained her senses and said to Zhang Xiao in a low voice: "Zhang Xiao, do whatever you want. Don't worry about me anymore, I'll be hanging up now." She no longer dared to speak presumptuously in front of Yi Xiu Jie.
His actions just now had truly shocked her.
He thought he was going to kill someone out of embarrassment, but who knew he was going to help her peel an apple?
Zhang Xiao still wanted to say something, but Ye Qing had already hung up the phone, she laughed and muttered: "Just like that, you're hanging up?"
"Mom."
