Wishful Things

He was led to the side hall, stepped into the hall, and immediately saw Xu Mingyi sitting there drinking tea. Ah Zhu stood by and there was no one else.

"Sure enough, Zhao Zhao wants to see me."

Xu Mingyi put down the teacup and looked up at him.

He is wearing a stone blue gown today, with a smile in his eyes, and his whole body is full of gentle and bookish air.

Xu Mingyi's gaze moved down slowly, and it froze on his neck for a moment.

As a fellow martial artist, Azhu, who was sensitive in some aspects, shuddered inexplicably.

What's with the girl's... eyes that seem to think Mr. Zhan's head shouldn't be on his neck?

This must be her illusion, right?

Ah Zhu looked again, and sure enough, she saw that the murderous look in her girl's eyes had disappeared.

"Mr. Zhan doesn't seem to be surprised that the person who wants to see you is me?"

"Mingshi has never been willing to listen to my lectures, so why would he take the initiative to find me to go to the house. After a little guessing, he guessed it was you." Zhan Yunzhu looked very casual, and while sitting down, he asked Xu Mingyi with concern: " Are you better?"

Behind the screen, Liu Yi, whose hands and feet were tied and gagged, fixed her eyes on the source of the sound through the screen.

Yesterday, she didn't know what would happen suddenly, so she secretly invited brother Zhan to go out of the city to offer incense together today, brother Zhan only said that today it was agreed to visit friends...

It's not that she didn't think that it was just an excuse to decline her, but it was also an invitation, and Xu Mingyi said a word, and he came here without delay... He knew that it was Xu Mingyi who wanted to see him!

Or is it just because of Xu Mingyi's identity?

However, what is the concern in his tone, and the casualness that is not easy to show in front of others?

She used to think that he could relax like this only in front of her.

"Better."

Xu Mingyi's answer was lukewarm, but it was also in line with her usual "arrogant".

In fact, when she didn't know Zhan Yunzhu's true face, she never treated him too warmly and intimately. All along, she just regarded him as a brother next door who grew up together, gentle and trustworthy.

"It's better when it's better." The servants outside the hall were obviously dismissed by Xu Mingyi in advance, Zhan Yunzhu thought about it, and wanted to ask about the young man in the front yard.

He knew that some things should not be asked too much, but in the face of Zhaozhao, he still had troubles in his heart.

However, when he hesitated to speak, he only heard Xu Mingyi bluntly and abruptly said: "Sister Liu came to me last night and confided something in her heart to me. She said that she has been in love with you for a long time."

Zhan Yunzhu was stunned.

"I also said that Mr. Zhan treats her differently." Xu Mingyi said with a happy smile in his tone, "I thought about it carefully, Mr. Zhan and Sister Liu's childhood sweethearts have already reached the age to discuss marriage. It’s really a joy between the two, and it’s really a happy event.”

Zhan Yunzhu came back to his senses, smiled wryly and said, "Zhao Zhao, don't make any more jokes like this..."

"How can it be a joke? I have thought about this matter carefully. Of course, Mr. Zhan is the son of an official. If you talk about marriage, you can't take it for granted and just rely on your heart.

So I have already discussed with my father, we can adopt Sister Liu as an adopted daughter, and the dowry will also be provided by the Zhen Guo Gongfu, so that the relationship between the Zhen Guo Gongfu and the Zhan Mansion will be good, and I will not be wronged by Mr. Zhan With Sister Liu, Mr. Zhan will no longer have any worries—how does Mr. Zhan feel good about such an arrangement? "

Behind the screen, Liu Yi clutched her fingers tightly.

She didn't expect Xu Mingyi to ask questions so straightforwardly.

But before she died, she really wanted to hear how Brother Zhan would answer——

"Zhao Zhao..."

Zhan Yunzhu shook his head and sighed slightly.

"For me, the most important thing about marriage is not family status, but whether the two are in love with each other. I don't have the slightest affection for Miss Liu. It's really inappropriate to talk about marriage rashly."

His tone was still gentle, but there seemed to be a hint of bitterness in it.

"..." Liu Yi's clenched fingers trembled slightly.

There is no love between men and women? !

Xu Mingyi frowned slightly: "According to this, sister Liu would be wrong?"

"I didn't expect her to have such an idea..." Zhan Yunzhu said: "I have indeed gotten closer to her, but I have never been too polite when I asked myself. I have taken care of her when I was young. , it’s just because of her pitiful background.”

Xu Mingyi showed a clear expression.

She naturally expected that Zhan Yunzhu would refuse and leave it clean.

After all, in his eyes, his marriage must be exchanged for the greatest benefit, so how could it be wasted on Liu Yi, a dispensable chess piece that can be coaxed into obedience with a few words?

Presumably Liu Yi should understand.

But not enough.

"Ah Kui, bring him out." Xu Mingyi said.

Behind the screen, Ah Kui responded, and Dang even grabbed Liu Yi and walked out.

Liu Yi's hands and feet were tied with ropes, and as soon as Ah Kui let go, she fell to the ground.

With tears in her eyes, she looked up at Zhan Yunzhu who was sitting there with a look of astonishment on her face.

She tried to see a hint of distress on his face, but he seemed to have only accidents.

"Zhao Zhao, what happened?" Zhan Yunzhu stood up in shock.

"She offended me." The girl's tone was full of anger, her eyes were slightly cold: "My narcolepsy is the poison she secretly poisoned, and she wants to harm me."

"How could such a thing happen!" Zhan Yunzhu glanced at Liu Yi, his eyes didn't stop, and immediately returned to Xu Mingyi: "Have you found out?"

"Grandpa has already found out, and she herself recognized it. Now, I will deal with her." The girl's words were capricious and casual: "But I am afraid that she is really Mr. Zhan's sweetheart. Mr. Zhan grew up with me. Just like my half elder brother, I thought, if Mr. Zhan speaks, I will just let her go this time."

"If she is really the one who harmed you, it is even more impossible for me to intervene in this matter." Zhan Yunzhu's tone was a little cold: "If you do something wrong, you should pay the price."

Seeing the indifference in his eyes, Liu Yi was almost stunned.

Is he that heartless?

Don't even ask more about what happened, and refuse to say a word for her? !

Don't even look at her more than once!

Are you going to watch her die like this?!

Even if he refused to marry her just now, she could still lie to herself that he couldn't let go in front of Xu Mingyi, or he had other considerations... But right now it's about her life and death!

Even her life is so worthless in his eyes!

She didn't believe that someone could become so indifferent overnight - unless... the good things in the past were all fake!

The very thought was driving her mad.

"Woohoo!"

Liu Yi, who was gagged, stared at her red eyes and struggled to make a sound.

Xu Mingyi signaled Ah Zhu to take off the cloth towel from her mouth.

"Brother Zhan...you are using me! You have been using me all along, right!" Liu Yi's breathing was uneven, her voice was hoarse, and her expression was almost crazy.
