Chapter 120 Crisis Awareness
Su Yixia had long seen through Su Shengfei's pretense. He had seen his recent attitude towards Qian Xi. Although he was in Qian Xi's bedroom that day, he argued hard for Qian Xi and her elder brother.
, it’s not like he doesn’t know.
He took out a bottle of Coke from the refrigerator and threw it at Su Shengfei. Su Shengfei caught it steadily, unscrewed the lid, and looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"Should I praise her? I'm afraid she'll be too proud, and she won't know how high the sky is!" After saying that, she drank a Coke.
"A dead duck has a tough mouth."
Su Yixia muttered something softly and reached for the cake on the coffee table again.
Seeing this happy scene, Wang Ma felt relieved. The Zuo Su Mansion had regained some feeling of home.
However, this atmosphere did not last.
What a coincidence, Su Zian, who rarely comes back, actually came back today.
The originally cheerful rhythm in the living room suddenly became cold.
He stared at the girl in front of him. He hadn't seen her for too long. He clearly saw the smile on her face before, but it disappeared in an instant. She lowered her head again, like a toy that was not wound up. No.
Move again.
"Brother, you are back."
Su Yixia spoke, breaking the silence.
"Um."
Su Zian responded without saying anything else.
"I don't know why I came back."
Su Shengfei said angrily, this village girl was fine at first, but this time she came back, she was back to her original shape, and she was extremely angry.
Originally I thought Su Zian would go upstairs directly, but he didn't and sat down on the sofa.
The three people in the hall stopped talking because of his intervention. He seemed out of tune with the entire Zuosu family.
Su Zian's chest felt very tight. He looked at Qian Xi and wanted to say something, but he couldn't. He came back from time to time, and he had already thought of thousands of scenes of meeting Xiao Xi in his mind. That day, whether it was Xiao Xi
Right or wrong, he went too far.
Qian Xi's breathing was rapid and her eyes were misty. She still couldn't face him. There were too many things she couldn't explain, and her heartbeat was so fast that she couldn't bear it.
She forced out a smile and said softly, "Yixia, I'm going back to the room first."
She left in a hurry, and the sound of her slippers clicking on the stairs was like stepping on Su Zian's heart.
The room was filled with a familiar aroma, and the cakes on the coffee table were being thrown into Su Shengfei's mouth one by one.
In a daze, he saw the girl standing in front of him holding a cake. The past was gone, and now she was far away from him.
Seeing Qianxi leaving, Yixia didn't stop and left the living room.
Su Zian smiled, and the corners of his mouth opened in an arc, as if he was laughing at himself. The pain in his chest made him unable to find the source. What on earth was going on with all this?
Su Shengfei did not leave. The two of them sat across the coffee table and looked at each other. He destroyed half of the cake on the plate.
He ate casually, with an attitude of victory in every bite. Su Zian's face, the expression that he had no time to hide, actually made Su Shengfei feel sincerely happy.
Since then, apart from occasional social events, Su Zian would go home on time every day. At first Qian Xi avoided seeing her, but over time, living under the same roof, it was impossible for them to cross paths.
Qian Xi didn't run away anymore. When she met him, she would lightly call out "Brother Zi'an". Su Zi'an nodded silently and agreed.
It's just that they are so close yet yet so far apart. No one mentioned the past again, for fear that time would stand still and the air would become thinner.
A black Bentley slowly drove into Zuo Su's mansion. As soon as the car stopped, the man in the passenger seat hurriedly got out of the car and opened the door for the people in the back seat.
All the servants in the yard stood straight and neatly in a row, and everyone once bent down.
"Hello, sir!"
Su Xianghai stared at the entire mansion and walked in with dignity and steady steps.
He hasn't been back here for a long time, and the unchanged appearance always reminds him of his late wife.
"The master is back." Wang Ma's face was full of surprise, "Should we go to the back courtyard?"
"Um."
Su Xianghai said deeply, walking through the corridor on the first floor and directly entering the courtyard at the back.
The backyard is kept very clean by the gardener, with lush trees and a very cool shade under the grapevine trellis, with a few cicadas chirping from time to time.
Su Xianghai sat down on the stone bench and cooked the tea set on the stone bench, feeling as if he had stolen half a day's leisure.
But he didn't come back this time to take a break. The assistant standing behind him was holding large and small gift boxes in his hands.
Wang Ma glanced at her and said, "Sir, why did you bring something with you when you came home?"
Wang Ma originally married into the Su family with Ma Yuting, but later, her wife died unexpectedly, and she did not leave. She stayed at Zuo Su Mansion to take care of several young masters. However, Su Xianghai moved out to live out of fear of being hurt by the situation.
"Where is Xiao Xi? How is her health lately?"
Su Xianghai spoke, and Wang Ma suddenly realized that the master came back specially to see the young lady!
"The young lady's health has been much better recently, that's right. She's not very lively. She's better when the young master is at home. When there's no one at home, I often see her in a daze alone."
Wang Ma said that she was also worried about this matter.
Su Xianghai also understood something in his heart. Bai Yu suddenly came to him. He also got a rough idea of what happened. Qian Xi was wronged at Zuo Su's mansion.
"Go and call Xiao Xi down."
Su Xianghai didn't have any expression, but he was thinking in his heart. Originally, he wanted to go to Su Zian first, but after all, Xiao Xi was injured, and he should express his condolences first.
"I'll go right away."
Wang Ma responded and turned around as if there was wind on her feet. Finally, someone was backing her up!
When she heard that Uncle Su wanted to see her, Qian Xi was startled. She had been in Zuo Su Mansion for so long and had never seen Uncle Su before. She quickly changed into a set of formal clothes.
With the breeze blowing on her face, Qian Xi stood in front of Su Xianghai wearing a light blue skirt and acting a little hastily. The girl's youthfulness added a touch of color to the lush backyard.
"Xiao Xi, come and sit."
Su Xianghai was not as serious as before, but when he saw Xiao Xi appear, he became kind-hearted.
"Hello, Uncle Su."
Qian Xi shyly sat down next to Su Xianghai, with a faint blush on her face.
"Xiao Xi, don't be restrained. My uncle heard that you were sick and came to see you. My uncle doesn't know what your little girls like, so he asked his assistant to buy some of various types."
Qian Xi secretly raised her head and glanced at the uncle in front of her. His face was full of kindness and care. Is this the Su Xianghai who dominates the shopping mall?
The assistant behind him quickly placed a bunch of gift boxes in front of Qian Xi. It was the first time for him to see his deputy director look like this. A dignified deputy director of the Zuo family actually gave a gift to a little girl. He also
Confused.
"Thank you, Uncle Su, for your concern."
Qian Xi became more courageous. This uncle was easy to get along with and had the feeling of Yi Xia about him, which made people feel warm.
Qian Xi raised her head, and Su Xianghai saw her delicate face, faint dimples, sweet smile, and his shadow between her eyebrows. They were so similar!
"Uncle Su, you drink tea."
Su Xianghai was still in his thoughts, but Qianxi had already made tea and handed him a cup of fragrant Longjing. She was so well-behaved that she won his attention.
She is still young, but she didn't expect her tea art to be so experienced. Sure enough, you can't judge a book by its appearance. Qian Xi is not only beautiful in appearance, but also in terms of talent. It seems that Bai Xue has trained her very well in private over the years.
