In the car, Qi Jing's fingers fell into Xia Yunshu's fingers, clasped her ten fingers on his knee and asked her, "what did you say just now?"
Qi Jing usually doesn't inquire about Xia Yunshu. This time, he will ask. He sees that Xia Yunshu has something on her mind, which is obviously related to what Duke Luo said to her alone.
Duke Luo lives in state y all year round. He is afraid that Duke Luo will have any friendship with the rest of the Xia family. Mentioning the Xia family in front of her will make her feel bad.
Xia Yunshu looked up at him with a complicated look: "brother, I think Duke Luo seems to care about me very much, and he seems to want me to stay in Yucheng all the time."
"Can you talk about the intersection between you and him in the past?" Qi Jing asked.
"Of course, my brother and I have nothing to say."
"Duke Luo and I actually met several times. The first time we met was at my tenth birthday party. That night, he was seriously injured and turned in through the window of my room. I saved him and helped him escape the search. It's a pity that he owes me a life-saving favor."
"After that, he would come to my birthday party every year. Not only that, I was unconscious for five years. Every year on my birthday, he would visit me in the hospital. He didn't say anything. He just said some blessings and sat down for a few minutes."
"Since you saved his life, he is indeed much older than you. Maybe he really cares about you as a younger generation."
"Even if he really cares about me as a younger generation and wants me to stay in Yucheng and not go back? Doesn't he want me to go back and participate in the competition for the inheritance of the Xia family?"
"It doesn't seem that there is no such possibility. After all, in the eyes of the world, I'm just an 18-year-old girl without any dependence. I'll go back to Xia's house alone to compete for the inheritance right, and maybe I'll lose my life. But he wants me to stay in Yucheng. Isn't he worried that I'll be bullied if I stay in Yucheng alone?"
"With me, I will protect you. How can people bully you?"
Looking at this Qi Jing, Xia Yunshu couldn't help laughing: "of course I know you'll protect me, but Duke Kolo doesn't know? He's not afraid if you're a scum man..."
Seeing Qi Jing's suddenly black face, Xia Yunshu said with a dry smile, "I'm kidding. Of course, my brother can't be a slag man."
"I just feel that if Duke Luo simply cares about me as a younger generation and cares about me staying alone in Yucheng, he shouldn't be so relieved."
"Xu is impressed by my personality charm. Even if he is not familiar with me, he knows that I will not be a scum man. He knows that I will always be very good to you. In this way, why don't he rest assured that you will stay in Yucheng?"
Narcissism again.
She couldn't stop laughing and cooperated with him: "it's really possible."
"Forget it, don't talk about him. Anyway, he doesn't mean any harm to me at the moment."
Qi Jing did not bring this topic, but asked with a kind of serious look: "you just said that you saved him on the night of your tenth birthday party?"
"Well, what's the matter? Is there anything wrong?"
"You said he was seriously injured in your room, which means your room in the Xia family mansion?"
"Yes, the party didn't break up at that time. I was a little tired. I left the scene and went back to my room to have a rest."
"Did you see him at the party before? Was he hurt when you saw him?"
Xia Yunshu recalled seeing Duke Luo from a distance at the banquet and hearing people around him discuss his identity: "yes, he wasn't hurt when he saw him at the banquet."
"In other words, he was injured in the Xia family mansion?" Qi Jing asked.
