Chapter 54: Choice
"Hey, Xiaoqi, it's me." A familiar voice rang on the other end of the line.
"Brother?" Zhong Qi shouted in surprise and asked.
"Well, it's me, how have you been?" Zhong Qijun on the other end of the phone said with a gentle expression and a little different feeling. He knew that Zhong Qi never answered strange calls, so he could only keep calling until she was willing to answer. Fortunately, her temperament hasn't changed at all over the years, otherwise he really doesn't know what to do.
"I'm fine, what about you?" Since his parents disappeared, Zhong Qi has regarded Zhong Qijun as his only relative. Although the two have been separated for so many years, she has always regarded him as an older brother in her heart.
"I'm okay, are you still with Lou Jin now?" When Zhong Qijun asked this sentence, his hand involuntarily clenched the microphone. If he hadn't made a wrong step at the beginning, he and Xiaoqi would not have been the result they are now. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel a little crazy in my eyes.
"Yes, he... Very good. When Zhong Qi heard Lou Jin's name, his heart was sweet for a while, and he said shyly.
Zhong Qi was blindly immersed in her own sweetness, and she never knew that when the person on the other end of the phone heard her answer, she clenched the phone tightly, and her eyes were about to erupt with anger.
"Yes." Zhong Qijun said because he was stimulated. Regardless of whether she is happy or unhappy now, how can he allow the woman who originally belonged to him to be by the side of other men every day.
"Yes, brother, I'm really happy now." Zhong Qi didn't know what happened on the night she was drunk, so the feeling of Zhong Qijun was that they were reunited after a long absence. Although it was unpleasant when they first met, in her heart he was her relative, and she wanted him to feel her happiness.
When Zhong Qijun heard this, his eyes were crazy to destroy everything, the corners of his mouth hooked up a wicked smile, and he whispered into the phone: "Xiaoqi, are you just in love with your enemy like this and be with him?"
When Zhong Qi heard this, the one between her and Lou Jin, the question that the two of them deliberately didn't think about appeared in front of them nakedly. The hand holding the phone clenched suddenly, his face turned pale instantly, and his eyes were full of disbelief powerlessness.
"Brother, what do you mean?" After asking this sentence, it was as if he had exhausted all his strength, staring blankly at a point in the void.
"My silly sister, what do you think I mean?" Zhong Qijun didn't answer the rhetorical question, he could imagine what kind of reaction she had on the other end of the phone, although he was a little distressed, but he wouldn't just fulfill them like this. She was his, from start to finish.
"No, brother, you must be lying to me. How is that possible? Zhong Qi had tears in her eyes, and she said words of disbelief in her mouth, but she was really panicked at this moment. After so long of self-deception, she really should be sober.
"Xiaoqi, I'm your brother, how could I lie to you?" Zhong Qijun said to the phone with an unfathomable smile in his eyes that he hooked the corners of his mouth.
If Zhong Qi could see his expression now, she would definitely not believe it so easily. However, now that the two of them are separated by phone, Zhong Qi is now confused, and he didn't hear the coldness in Zhong Qijun's words.
Sitting weakly in the chair and listening to Zhong Qijun's words, it seemed like a big hole appeared in his heart, and he was at a loss to let those thoughts spread.
Zhong Qijun seemed to be not excited enough, and said: "Is he still unwilling to tell you the news of your parents?" Xiaoqi, you have been deceived for so long, you should be sober. ”
Zhong Qi wanted to open his mouth to refute something, but when he opened his mouth, he found that it was all in vain. What her brother said was true, and she couldn't refute it at all. Even if you want to justify a few words about Lou Jin, he is not that kind of person, but these are the facts. No matter how much she asked, he wouldn't answer her questions. She had been deceiving herself and deceiving herself, but the result had told her that she was wrong.
A person is immersed in her own thoughts, and she doesn't know when the phone hangs up.
Zhong Qijun hung up the phone after speaking, he didn't want her to be hurt, he didn't want her to be involved. But now he can't control everything at all. He was already one step too late, and he couldn't let her fall in love with someone else.
"It's all arranged?" A woman next to her asked, not paying attention to the painful and tangled expression on Zhong Qijun's face, she only cared about the final result.
"Don't worry, I've got it all arranged." Zhong Qijun put away his emotions and answered the words of the person next to him.
"Hmm." When you hear the news you want, you don't hesitate to leave. When he was halfway through, he suddenly turned around and looked at Zhong Qijun coldly and said, "I advise you not to have any thoughts about Zhong Qi, after all, we are enemies and are destined not to be together."
Zhong Qijun wiped his face with his hand violently, and replied coldly: "Don't worry, I know how to measure."
The woman looked at Zhong Qijun and frowned, and left without saying a word...
The old housekeeper went to the house to pour Zhong Qi another cup of tea, and when she came back, she saw her sitting on a chair alone and depressed, holding her mobile phone tightly.
Zhong Qi looked up at the sky with blank eyes, and couldn't help but shield the dazzling sun with his hands. She felt the warm sunshine just now, why did she feel so cold now. Tears slipped from the corners of his eyes involuntarily, his fingers flicked, and he looked at the crystal in a daze, and his heart suddenly hurt.
"Young lady, what's wrong with you?" The old housekeeper hurriedly came over, put the things in his hand aside, looked at Zhong Qi's appearance, and asked anxiously.
Zhong Qi sat in a chair in a daze, immersed in his own thoughts, and everything in the outside world could no longer be heard. In his heart, he desperately told himself to believe in Lou Jin, he was not that kind of person. But there was another voice telling her all the time, it was her brother who had grown up with her since she was a child, how could he deceive her?
"Young lady, young lady?" The old housekeeper looked at Zhong Qi and spoke, she didn't react at all, and couldn't help but shake her hand in front of her, trying to attract her attention. After trying to scream several times, Zhong Qi still sat alone without the slightest reaction. In a hurry, he immediately ran to the house, wanting to call Lou Jin and ask him to come back quickly.
After the call was dialed, it was cut off for the first time. He knew that the young master should be busy at this time, so he couldn't bother him. But now the young lady's state is really wrong, so she hesitated for a moment and called Lou Jin again.
Lou Jin is now in a meeting to discuss cooperation with others, and after seeing the call for the first time, he hesitated and hung up. Looking at the phone screen that lit up again, Lou Jin had a bad premonition in his heart. The old butler has always been a man of proportion, and he will never keep calling while he is working. Unless, is something that happens. And the only person who can make the old housekeeper call in such a hurry is...
Thinking of the little woman, she picked up the phone without hesitation. What he was thinking about just now was just a momentary thing, but Lou Jin's hand was shaking when he picked up the phone. He had a bad premonition in his heart, and signaled to others to go out with the phone.
"Hey, young master, come back quickly. The young lady didn't know what was going on, and she had been sitting in the garden since she answered a phone call just now, and she didn't respond no matter what others called. The old housekeeper heard the sound of the phone being picked up, and hurriedly said.
When Lou Jin heard that it was really about Zhong Qi, his heart tightened, and he said calmly: "I'll go back immediately, you guys are optimistic about her." After speaking, he didn't wait for the old housekeeper to say anything, and hung up the phone directly to call the special assistant.
"You will preside over the meeting, I have something to go home." After Lou Jin finished explaining concisely, he walked out of the company in a hurry.
The special assistant looked confused after receiving the call, but he explained to everyone and comforted everyone with great professionalism. I don't know what happened to the president, but it must have something to do with the future president's wife. While presiding over the meeting, he inevitably walked down.
Driving all the way, the anxiety in my heart could not be suppressed. Just let him be in a hurry, the road conditions are very congested.
“FUCK!” slapped the horn frantically, and for the first time in his life, President Lou, who had always been personable in the eyes of outsiders, burst into foul language irritably.
It usually takes half an hour to drive, but this time it only took ten minutes to rush back home. I got out of the car in a hurry and ran to the garden, and when I saw people sitting there quietly, my heart finally fell to the ground, and I gradually stopped running.
didn't care about his appearance, calmed down his mood a little, and walked step by step towards the little woman who made him dream of every move.
Zhong Qi sat here, the two voices in his head arguing all the time. She couldn't convince herself completely, and she couldn't convince herself not to believe it. She sat in a state of panic, not knowing what she was supposed to do.
When Lou Jin walked over, he looked at Zhong Qi's empty eyes, his heart tightened, and he slowly squatted in front of Zhong Qi, looking at her worriedly.
After the old housekeeper saw the young master come back, his heart was slightly relieved. beckoned everyone to go down, leave this place to the young master and them, and let them solve it themselves.
The focus of Zhong Qi's eyes finally gathered, looking at the man squatting in front of him, the disbelief in his heart prevailed for the first time. She loves him, and she can't stop believing the man in front of her who has done so much for herself because of another person's words. She should have given him a chance anyway, she couldn't just sentence him to death.
"You're back?" He looked at the man in front of him with a pale face and asked with a reluctant smile.
Lou Jin looked distressed, didn't dare to ask her what happened, his hand gently stroked the little woman's face, and comforted her silently.
The two looked at each other with a lot of worries, and their eyes were full of sorrow.
