C17 With the Smell of Blood

"People have their own merits." Xuan Tian's words fell and she arrived at the dining table.

She clearly noticed that Zhou Zhengqi was not among the group.

"Didn't you say that you would celebrate for me? Why didn't I see your brother Qi?" Xuan Tian's gaze swept over the dozen or so people again, but she still did not see Zhou Zhengqi's face, which the whole world owed him money.

"I was the one who proposed to celebrate for you. Brother Qi has never liked the liveliness, so when he is busy, I will let a few brothers come over to celebrate for you." Kerry stood up from his seat.

Xuan Tian's gaze swept across the people on the third floor. She could also see that they were somewhat restrained.

These people usually did not dare to go up to the third floor. If they did not receive an order, how could they come to the third floor to celebrate for her?

She felt that she didn't understand Zhou Zhengqi. He was obviously paying attention to her, but he didn't want to admit it.

"If that's the case, let's eat quickly. Thank you for taking care of us during this period of time." Xuan Tian generously raised her wine cup and gave everyone a cup first.

Her appearance also stirred up the atmosphere. Very soon, people came over to toast as well.

Xuan Tian was a girl and she did not have much food to eat. This celebration only lasted for an hour. After Xuan Tian put down her chopsticks, the others did not eat anymore.

Kerry saw this and said, "Everyone is here today. Sister-in-law, go and rest. We can clean up the rest of the place ourselves."

Xuan Tian nodded and retreated to the side.

With Kerry's instructions, the living room was cleaned up in less than three minutes and returned to its previous cold appearance.

Xuan Tian sat on the sofa and looked at the book Zhou Zhengqi had read.

Suddenly, she noticed a shadow on the book. She looked up and saw Zhou Zhengqi pushing the wheelchair in front of her.

Both of them were sitting, but Zhou Zhengqi was still a head taller than her.

"You're back." Xuan Tian put down the book in her hand.

"Are you interested in finance?" Zhou Zhengqi looked at Xuan Tian.

Xuan Tian nodded. "Although I have some accomplishments in painting, it would be better if I had extra income."

"So, you want to learn how to invest in finance as well?" Zhou Zhengqi took the book from her.

Xuan Tian nodded. "Are you willing to teach me?"

"When we get back, I will ask the relevant people to guide you." Zhou Zhengqi was still cold.

Xuan Tian's pretty eyes looked up and down. It was not much different from the answer she expected. She knew he would refuse.

"Thank you so much. It's getting late. Go to bed early." Xuan Tian said and wanted to push Zhou Zhengqi's wheelchair.

"Go back to your room. I'll read some books." Zhou Zhengqi did not control the wheelchair. Xuan Tian felt a wave of fatigue when pushing the wheelchair.

Xuan Tian opened her mouth. The rest was swallowed.

She could tell that Zhou Zhengqi did not want to be involved with her.

The next morning, Xuan Tian did not see Zhou Zhengqi again.

She asked the people below, but they were all Zhou Zhengqi's. None of them were willing to tell Zhou Zhengqi where he went.

These days lasted for a week. Xuan Tian had also waited for the day of the exhibition.

That morning, Xuan Tian finished her breakfast and saw Kerry standing at the door.

"What's the matter?" Xuan Tian pretended to look at the calendar but pretended not to know anything.

"You are going to the art exhibition today. When are you leaving? I will send you there." Kerry stood at the door with an awkward expression on his face.

"How did you know I was going to the art exhibition?" Xuan Tian's eyes were mischievous.

She did not see Zhou Zhengqi for a week. She did not know where he was.

"When you were chatting with Miss Jiang, I heard it not far away." Kerry lied without changing his expression.

"Then you really have a thousand miles ears. However, I have already packed up. Let's go." Xuan Tian held the stairs and tried to think of a way to make Zhou Zhengqi admit that he cared about her.

He was the one who did everything, but in the end, it was all Kerry's fault.

What was Zhou Zhengqi thinking?

Xuan Tian did not pursue the matter further. She followed Kerry downstairs. There were only a few scattered people in the clinic downstairs. Perhaps it was Xuan Tian's imagination, but the smell of blood in the clinic seemed to be more intense than disinfectant.

She followed Kerry into the car and handed the invitation letter to Kerry.

Kerry looked at the address, then stepped on the accelerator and set off.

Xuan Tian clearly felt that the scenery outside seemed to have become more colorful after Kerry drove out of the small town.

The car soon arrived at the location of the exhibition.

This exhibition was very low-key. When Xuan Tian got out of the car, she looked around but did not see any special buildings.

Xuan Tian took out her phone and prepared to call Jiang Qiyue.

She had just dialed the number but before she could dial the number, she saw Jiang Qiyue walking over in a green qipao.

"You're finally here. This art exhibition is on the second floor. " Because there are a few people who prefer quiet, there aren't many people invited to the art exhibition. When you get upstairs, pay attention when you talk. "

"Okay." Xuan Tian turned her head and waved at Kerry.

"Is that your boyfriend?" Jiang Qiyue raised her eyebrows slightly.

Xuan Tian shook her head. "This is one of my husband's brothers. Because my husband was busy during this period of time, he asked his brother to send me over."

"He has some blood on him. You should pay more attention to him." Jiang Qiyue reminded.

"I will pay more attention to him. I will only stay in M Country for a while." Xuan Tian did not know much about M Nation.

"It was not that chaotic before, but I heard that there was an incident with the leader of a force in the north. His territory immediately turned into meat buns. During this period of time, It's a fight over land, though it's cheap over there. I also have a few houses in M Nation. If you're only staying here temporarily, you can move in with your husband. Anyway, my house is empty. " Jiang Qiyue's attitude was very easy-going.

Xuan Tian thought for a moment. It seemed that the outside world's comments about Jiang Qiyue were all because she was a decisive person in the business world. Giving out love was only part of the public service, but a lot of it was said to be Jiang Qiyue was a very ruthless person.

But she suddenly helped her...

"There is no need for now. I feel that the place where I live is still safe. Besides, I'll be back in a while. The art exhibition should be opening soon, right? Take me to see the painting. "Isn't our focus today the art exhibition?" Xuan Tian pointed to the road ahead and changed the topic back to the art exhibition.
