When it was time for the lunch break, Chu Xi got up and was about to go to dinner, when a broken sound came from Song Yuxi's office on the side.

Song Yuxi has always had a magic crystal ball on her office, and she was a little absent-minded just now, but she accidentally slammed it off and broke it into eight pieces.

"Need help......"

Chu Xi walked into the office, only to find that Song Yuxi was actually shedding tears.

remembered that Ma Shengling had come to her office in the morning, could it be that Ma Shengling had attacked her because of Song Yuxi's appearance for Chu Xi before?

"What's the matter? What did Ma Shengling tell you?"

Song Yuxi glanced at Chu Xi with red eyes, gradually calmed down, lowered his head and responded, "The chairman didn't say anything to me." ”

Chu Xi didn't believe it, and scolded, "This bastard!"

Chu Xi wanted to go to Ma Shengling, but was pulled by Song Yuxi.

"It's really not, the chairman didn't bother me because of yesterday's incident. ”

Chu Xi was puzzled: "Then why are you crying." ”

Song Yuxi hesitated for a moment before responding, "This crystal ball was given to me by a very important person, and it has been with me for six or seven years. ”

"This ......"

Chu Xi pursed her lips, but she didn't expect Song Yuxi, who looked calm and steady on the surface, to have such a little woman's side, and it was really distressing to see her wipe her tears.

Chu Xi squatted down and helped clean up the debris on the ground.

"Don't take it with your hands, be careful and scratch your hands again, I'll go get a broom and sweep it away." ”

Song Yuxi went to the utility room and got a broom, and when he returned to the office, the fragments on the ground had disappeared, and the crystal ball had been miraculously repaired.

Song Yuxi picked up the crystal ball in surprise and looked at it back and forth, it was exactly the same as the original.

"You fixed it, how?"

As long as he uses the form control of alchemy, he can restore the item to its original appearance, which is not a difficult task for Chu Xi.

Chu Xi replied lightly, "Since it was given to you by an important person, you should be careful in the future." ”

Song Yuxi hugged the crystal ball tightly, like holding a beloved, and the joy and beauty of the lost and regained were unabashedly revealed on her face.

"Thank you. ”

Chu Xi scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I should thank you, that day you stood up and spoke for me, compared to this, my little thing is nothing." ”

Song Yuxi still asked with palpitations, "Are you sure that Ma Shengling really won't embarrass you anymore?"

Chu Xi spread his hands and said, "Didn't you see it all, I said you don't have to worry, I'll be fine." ”

Song Yuxi looked at the incredible man in front of her and remembered what Chu Xi said to her that day.

When I heard those words for the first time, I thought Chu Xi was crazy and thought he was a little ridiculous, but now Chu Xi has indeed shown enough capital and strength calmly, and in Song Yuxi's eyes, Chu Xi is no longer that small department manager.

Song Yuxi changed her calm style and joked playfully, "Didn't you say that you wanted to drive Ma Shengling out?"

"It depends on whether he will learn to behave. ”

The two talked eloquently, and Song Yuxi was amused by Chu Xi.

"By the way, why didn't you ignore me when I greeted you in the morning? ”

When Song Yuxi heard this, the smile on his face stopped abruptly, and his eyes lowered unconsciously.

Thinking of the way Qi Mengli left with Chu Xi in his arms, he felt a little lost in his heart, but he didn't shy away from complaining.

"Some people are not kind, I took such a big risk to stand up for you, but you took other girls and left, who feels good for you. ”

"Oh?" Chu Xi teased, "Are you jealous?"

Song Yuxi glanced at Chu Xi and said, "Don't compare me with those little girls in the office, even if you are really the apprentice of the divine doctor, I have no interest in you." ”

"Oh, then you have to keep it up, don't be interested in me. ”

"It's so stinky. ”

......

"Miss, it's not too early, let's rest early. ”

In the luxury villa area of Dongling in Huaimachi City, the villa area at two o'clock in the morning is very quiet, most of the mansions have turned off the lights and rested, only the villas of the Qi family are still lit.

Qi Mengli sat on the sofa and was very unmotivated, since Qi Lao was hospitalized until now, he hadn't slept much for more than fifty hours.

"I'm fine, I'm not sleepy......"

The housekeeper Shi Dong sighed and showed an anxious look on his face, "Miss, you can't bear it like this, I know you're worried about the safety of the master, but didn't the divine doctor say it, with Chu Xi treating him, he will wake up quickly, if you don't wait for the master to wake up and you fall again, how can my old Shi still have the face to continue to stay in the Qi family." ”

Qi Mengli knew that the housekeeper was worried about her body, but she couldn't calm down in her heart, and even blamed herself a little.

Because of the ignorance when he was young, he buried his mother's life, and now his grandfather has a sudden serious illness and can't afford to be seriously ill, but he can't do anything about it.

The loved ones fell one after another, and Qi Mengli gradually began to feel like a plague god, trapped in emotions and unable to extricate himself.

Qi Mengli raised her head in a trance and said, "I'll sit for a while, and I'll go to sleep in a while." ”

"Hey......"

The housekeeper sighed lightly and said, "Then I'll go and make you a cup of soothing tea, and the young lady can feel more comfortable after drinking it." ”

The butler went downstairs to the kitchen, took out a bag of soothing tea, and just poured hot water, only to feel a chill on his neck, and a dagger appeared from the darkness and pressed against his throat.

"From now on, you are not allowed to make any sound or move without my instructions, and if you dare to disobey, this dagger will be stuck in your throat. ”

The housekeeper froze and said motionlessly, "Friend, don't be impulsive, if you want money, I can give it to you, please don't hurt the innocent." ”

"I don't want money, if you want to live, add this bag to the tea. ”

The Assassin pulled a bag of white powder from his pocket and handed it to the butler.

"This ...... What is it. ”

"It's poison, if you still want to live, do it. ”

The butler took the packet of white powder and was silent for a long time.

"What are you doing in a daze, don't you want to live?"

The housekeeper gently put down the white powder and said, "I won't poison Miss, you can kill me." ”

"Ridiculous. ”

The assassin snorted disdainfully, "After killing you, I can still kill your young lady, you just need to put this packet of poison into the tea and let her drink it, you can live, I believe you will settle this account." ”

"I said you killed me!"

Butler Shi Dong's tone was firm, without the slightest hesitation.

"I have been following the master since I was thirty years old, because I made mistakes when I was young, and after I came out, I was looked down upon, only the master always treated me like a family member, and trusted me to be the housekeeper of the Qi family. ”

"It's a pity that I'm a useless waste, the lord is now sick in bed, I can't help anything, Miss can't sleep all day, I can't do anything, now you let me kill Miss in exchange for my own life, I can't do such a pig and a dog!"

The black-robed assassin was a little moved, and the dagger in his hand paused.

"What's wrong, butler, what's going on?"

Qi Mengli heard a sound from the kitchen and walked over to find out.

In the darkness, the dagger shone brightly with black light, and it was on Shi Dong's neck, and this scene frightened Qi Mengli, who was already weak, into fainting.

"Dream Glass!"

The assassin hurriedly stepped forward, hugged Qi Mengli, who was about to fall, and took off the black robe on his body, revealing his face.

"You...... Aren't you Chu Xi's little brother?, how could you ......?"

This assassin was none other than Chu Xi.

"Don't talk nonsense yet, come and help. ”

The housekeeper guided Chu Xi and asked Chu Xi to carry Qi Mengli back to her own room.

After probing Qi Mengli's whole body, he found that she was just a little weak and overly frightened, and she fainted, and everything else was fine, so Chu Xi exited the room with confidence.

"Little brother Chu Xi, what do you mean by this, why did you ...... just now?"

Chu Xi explained, "I hope the housekeeper will forgive me, I am also helpless, I don't know if Mengli has told you that Qi Lao's sudden illness is because he was poisoned." ”

The housekeeper glared and exclaimed, "Poisoned? How is this possible, the master rarely goes out to socialize, and he eats and drinks at home, how can he be poisoned!"

Chu Xi nodded and replied, "Because of this, I suspect that it was the Qi family who poisoned Qi Lao, so I want to test you, after all, the person who can poison Qi Lao will definitely poison Mengli in order to save his life." ”

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, the housekeeper knew that Chu Xi was for the Qi family, and he didn't take what happened just now to heart, but he couldn't believe that Qi Lao was actually poisoned at home!
