C4 Are You Sure You Can't Stand Up?
If that kind of people are called demented and autistic, I'm afraid there aren't many people in the world who are smart and daring!
As he thought, Zhou Zhengqi's face was covered with ice. The disdain in his eyes became sharper, and an unknown sneer leaked out from his lips.
At this moment, another voice came from the earpiece, "Alright, let's be serious. Old Zhou, your legs... can't you stand up anymore?"
Zhou Zhengqi did not say anything.
After a while, the curtains closed automatically and the white light went out. The study room was once again immersed in darkness.
The man's voice was cold and sinister. "Who knows?"
-
- Xuan family.
In the living room, Uncle Xuan looked at the people who were moving things in and out of the room. He glanced at Uncle Liu in embarrassment.
After all, the old man's expression hadn't been good ever since he found out that Xuan Tian was living in the servants' room.
"Ahem... Look, it's almost lunchtime." Uncle Xuan suddenly coughed a few times and used his eyes to signal Xuan Tian, "Why don't you and Butler Liu have lunch together before leaving?"
Aunt Xuan also responded with a fake smile, "Yes, yes."
"No need." Uncle Liu gave the two of them a meaningful look, "The old master and young master are still waiting for Miss Xuan at the old residence, so I won't trouble the two of you."
As soon as he said that, the smile on Uncle Xuan's face froze.
Xuan Tian stood obediently by the side. She lowered her head and silently hugged her drawing board. She pretended not to notice the strange awkwardness in the atmosphere.
This blind fool! Uncle Xuan glared at her and could not help frowning.
At this moment, a female voice suddenly came from the door, "It's all the driver's fault. What kind of road did he walk? It's so blocked! I didn't see Zhou Zhengyang at all!"
The soft voice of the barbarian clearly reached everyone in the living room.
Uncle Xuan and Aunt Xuan immediately felt their scalps tighten. They all looked at Uncle Liu.
Xuan Tian heard it and raised her eyebrows without batting an eyelid. In a place where others could not see, her soft lips slightly pursed and revealed a trace of a mocking smile.
"Li Li this child..." Aunt Xuan awkwardly laughed a few times. Seeing Uncle Liu's unsmiling face, she hurriedly got up and walked towards the door, "I will go and see her."
On the other side, Uncle Liu saw that the people from the moving company were ready, so he asked Xuan Tian, "Miss Xuan, is this all you have?"
In front of the Xuan family, Xuan Tian did not want to expose herself for the time being.
Therefore, after hearing her name, Xuan Tian slowly raised her head and looked at Uncle Liu. She slowly said, "En.
"Then, Mr. Xuan, we will not disturb you." Uncle Liu said and made a "please" gesture to Xuan Tian.
Suddenly, Xuan Zili walked into the living room and saw the unfamiliar Uncle Liu. She was still angry and her tone was a bit aggressive. "Who are you? Why are you in my house?"
"Glass!" Aunt Xuan followed closely behind and quickly explained. "This is the butler of the Zhou family. He came to fetch your sister to Young Master Zhou's place."
Xuan Zili was a little shocked when she heard that.
She did not expect that Xuan Tian, this fool, would actually be liked by others!
However, seeing Xuan Tian's safe and sound appearance, she knew that what she said last night, this fool did not listen! A trace of dissatisfaction and darkness flashed through Xuan Zili's eyes.
Then, she thought of the things in her bag and revealed a smile, "So it's like this. I happen to have something here for you. Just treat it as a small gift."
Xuan Zili took out a box of expensive paint from her bag and looked at her like she was a sister, "Don't you like painting? This is the paint I specially asked someone to bring to you from overseas!"
Hearing this, Xuan Tian's hand that was holding the drawing board paused and a trace of caution flashed across her eyes.
She knew more than anyone how deep Xuan Zili's jealousy was and how much Xuan Zili wanted to destroy her hand! Hence, this "paint" was probably not some simple paint.
Uncle Liu did not notice anything. Seeing that Xuan Tian holding the drawing board was not convenient, he politely accepted the things for her.
Xuan Zili's face darkened, and her eyes were somewhat resentful. This fool actually dared to not take the things she gave!
Forget it, she was magnanimous. It was all up to her. For the sake of the design, she would let this fool go for the time being. In any case, as long as Xuan Tian used this paint, her hands would be wasted! At that time, no one will be able to threaten me!
-
Finally leaving the Xuan family, Xuan Tian, who was sitting in the car, relaxed slightly.
Uncle Liu, who was driving, did not say a word. He drove the car back to the Zhou family's old residence in silence.
Xuan Tian's eyes flashed. She clearly remembered that Uncle Liu had said that he would take her to the villa in the center of the lake.
"Miss Xuan, please." Uncle Liu opened the car door.
She got out of the car without changing her expression. Under Uncle Liu's lead, she once again entered the Zhou family's old residence.
Old Master Zhou was already waiting in the low-key and noble inner hall. Xuan Tian glanced at the old man's expression and knew that he should have found out about her. She was certain.
Old Master Zhou turned to look at her. His aged eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
"Miss Xuan does not plan to explain?" The old man's voice slowly carried an aura of not anger but might.
Xuan Tian calmly met his gaze and smiled calmly, "Old sir, could it be that you did not investigate when you first chose a wife for your grandson?"
"Are you blaming me?" Old Master Zhou's majestic eyebrows twitched.
"I don't dare." Xuan Tian shook her head. Thinking of Zhou Zhengqi's dispirited and cold expression, she said indifferently. "If you really care about your grandson, you should take good care of his condition and not rush to find a wife for him."
Old Master Zhou squinted his eyes as he listened. "Does the Xuan family know you are like this?"
Xuan Tian's body froze, her lips slightly pursed.
Just as the atmosphere fell into a strange silence, a cold and impatient male voice came from upstairs, "What are you dawdling for? Aren't you going to leave?"
Xuan Tian and Old Master Zhou looked up at the same time and saw the figure on the stairs.
"Young Master!"
Uncle Liu shouted excitedly and walked upstairs.
There was a ripple in Old Master Zhou's eyes. He tightened his grip on the walking stick. His tense expression gradually relaxed. "I finally know I'm coming out."
Zhou Zhengqi looked down at them. His dark green eyes were filled with a mysterious expression, reflecting a deep green shadow.
Did he... intentionally interrupt Old Master Zhou's questioning?
Xuan Tian blinked and heaved a sigh of relief.
Clearly, Old Master Zhou had also realized this and could not help but look at Xuan Tian.
This little girl was not an ordinary person and was completely different from what was written in the information. However, her personality was more like Old Xuan than the granddaughter of the Xuan family!
Forget it.
Old Master Zhou leaned back on the sofa and stroked his beard. He did not make things difficult for Xuan Tian anymore. Instead, he said to Uncle Liu, "Old Liu, I'll leave it to you. Send them away."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhengqi's eyes turned cold. It was as if a storm had swept across, cold and dangerous.
