Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 2269: Chapter 73: Come With Me!

“Miss Shi is so beautiful, she will definitely find a man who loves you.”

Qin Qingqing lowered her eyes, gently swaying the liquid in her glass, a faint smile on her lips, her voice soft and gentle.

It was clearly just a casual remark.

But to Shi Zhen’s ears, it became the most sincere and heartfelt words, making her delighted and jubilant, “Sister Qingqing, I believe in your words.”

As she spoke, her gaze shifted to the man standing beside Old Master Ye, dressed in a black suit, tall and imposing.

With every additional glance, her infatuation deepened.

Qin Qingqing raised her eyes, following her gaze, just in time to see Shi Xi walking over to Old Master Ye and Ye Zhan.

Shi Zhen’s expression immediately changed.

Qin Qingqing didn’t miss the coldness and anger that flashed in her eyes, “Why did Shi Xi suddenly come back to the Imperial City to attend Grandpa Ye’s birthday banquet?”

In front, Shi Zhen didn’t retract her gaze, but answered her question through gritted teeth, “She got dumped by a man and now wants to come back to stain Brother Ah Zhan.”

She used the word “stain.”

Apparently, she felt that no woman other than herself was worthy of Ye Zhan.

Qin Qingqing furrowed her brows, cooperatively putting on an expression of how detestable Shi Xi was, and softly said, “Shi Xi’s chances are quite big, after all, her father’s climbed up not just a little in the past few years.”

“Hmph, all with despicable and dirty tactics, Shi Xi that little slut is not a decent person either, Sister Qingqing, I’ll excuse myself for a while, and come back to chat with you later.”

After saying that, Shi Zhen quickly walked towards Shi Xi.

Simultaneously pulling out her phone, dialing Shi Xi’s number.

Qin Qingqing took one look and then averted her gaze, going to look for food.

Just picking up a delicious snack, she heard Shi Xi let out a sharp scream, breaking through the clinking glasses throughout the venue, startling Qingqing.

She still calmly took a bite of the snack in her mouth before looking towards the source of the sound.

It turned out that Shi Xi’s dress was wet in the front.

And the culprit, Shi Zhen, whose acting was no less than Shi Xi’s, with a face full of innocence, guilt, panic and self-blame, coupled with the words, “Sister, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’ll accompany you to the restroom to clean up, or you can take it off and I’ll help you wash it…no, no, I’ll accompany you home to change.”

The phrase “take it off and help you wash” instantly attracted many eyes, staring straight at Shi Xi’s chest.

Although the attendees of the birthday banquet were all people from the upper class, there were still many men who coveted Shi Xi’s beauty.

Shi Xi’s face turned blue and white in alternation, yet in such an occasion, the one who splashed her was Shi Zhen.

No matter how angry she was, she didn’t dare to lose her temper, unable to break the image of being weak and bullied in front of Shi Zhen.

“It’s okay, sister didn’t do it on purpose.”

“I’ll go home with you to change.”

Shi Zhen, annoyed, pulled her away.

Shi Xi struggled a bit but couldn’t break free, cursing inwardly.

Thinking of the conversation she just had with Qin Qingqing, she turned her eyes towards that direction, not seeing Qin Qingqing’s figure, her gaze swept around, she saw Qin Qingqing looking for food.

Hatred flashed in Shi Xi’s eyes, it must have been Qin Qingqing instigating Shi Zhen, which led her to splash her dress on the spot.

Originally, she didn’t want to compete for Ye Zhan.

But after being humiliated by Mo Ziye in G City this afternoon, Shi Xi decided with “great integrity” to forget about Mo Ziye, return to marry Ye Zhan, and then leverage the power of the Ye Family to help her father achieve great things.

By that time, if she wanted a Mo Ziye, wouldn’t that be a matter of minutes?

“Qingqing, are you planning to try all the snacks?”

While Qingqing was enjoying her food, a low voice sounded behind her; she turned her eyes to find a shadow looming down.

“I can’t eat much, no need to worry.”

Qingqing finished the last bite of her snack and very economically licked off the sesame seed that clung to her fingertip.

Ye Zhan shook his head with a smile, “Was that your doing just now?”

“What?”

Qingqing was baffled by his inexplicable words.

Her beautiful almond eyes looked at his handsome features in confusion, “Explain clearly, looking at me like this is making my heart race.”

“Shi Zhen poured red wine on Shi Xi and took her home to change clothes, wasn’t it you who instigated it?”

Even though Ye Zhan had been standing by Old Master Ye all the time, dealing with tonight’s guests with him.

Coming from a background in the special forces, he didn’t ignore the commotion in other parts of the banquet hall.

Qin Qingqing blinked, just about to say it had nothing to do with her, when her phone started ringing.

Seeing the caller ID, her eyes lit up slightly, holding the phone she smiled at Ye Zhan and said, “Brother Ziyi is calling me, I’ll step out to take the call.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the phone stopped ringing.

A hint of doubt flashed in Ye Zhan’s eyes as his gaze landed on Qin Qingqing’s phone.

But he heard her joyfully say, “I have something else to do, I’ll leave first, Ye Zhan, there are so many beauties tonight, good luck to you.”

Quickly walking out of the banquet hall, Qin Qingqing took the elevator downstairs.

She immediately saw that tall and slender figure standing in the empty hall, a warmth spread through her heart.

Qin Qingqing called out, “Brother Ziyi.”

Then she ran over to him.

If he hadn’t just broken up with Shi Xi this afternoon, she certainly would have rushed into his arms and hugged him tightly.

How could he come to the Imperial City without saying a word?

This moved her deeply.

Mo Ziye’s cool brows and eyes warmed up because of her presence, his gaze swept over her dress with the added shawl, a charming and gentle smile graced his lips, “Surprised?”

“Surprised, very surprised, why didn’t you tell me in advance.”

“If I told you, it wouldn’t be a surprise.”

The curve of Mo Ziye’s mouth deepened a bit, he stared at her for a few seconds, sighed lightly and said, “I was afraid that if I didn’t come to pick you up, you wouldn’t know to go home.”

“How could that be.”

Qin Qingqing’s heart tightened.

Regardless of anything else, she reached out to grasp Mo Ziye’s hand, earnestly saying, “I said I would return in two days, and I will.”

“How long is two days?”

Mo Ziye furrowed his brows, his deep eyes reflecting her bright and delicate face.

Qin Qingqing paused.

Apparently not expecting Mo Ziye to ask like this.

Her heart tightened again, she softly replied, “Two days is forty-eight hours, two thousand eight hundred eighty minutes, one hundred seventy-two thousand eight hundred seconds, I’ve been thinking about you every moment.”

Once the words fell, Qin Qingqing heard Mo Ziye’s breath catch.

The next second, her small hand, which was holding his big hand, was grasped back, his deep voice resonated in her ear, “Come with me.”

“…”

Before she could even say “Oh”, she was pulled along by Mo Ziye, striding out of the hotel.

Her small hand was tightly held in his palm, her heartbeat disrupted by his presence and warmth.
