Su Yingxue immediately fell silent.
Octavia called her name, and she could feel his obvious displeasure.
"Su Yingxue, let me summarize. This afternoon, you took the initiative to go to Hangzhou Normal University to find Zhiyi. Because your mother and Zhiyi had an argument on the phone, you hit Zhiyi first, and Zhiyi fought back, and you, Even now I think you were right to hit Zhiyi."
"I am doing it for my mother..."
"According to your logic, for the sake of Zhiyi, my fiancée, do I have a better position to attack you?"
"Senior Octavia, I..."
"Su Yingxue, don't call me senior in the future. Also, Zhiyi didn't complain to me. I just learned about it from you. I hope she can complain to me as soon as possible. Fortunately, she knows how to protect herself. When you hit, be able to fight back decisively.”
"This matter has been your and your mother's fault from beginning to end. Zhiyi is right. From today on, Zhiyi is my fiancée. From now on, I will not allow such a thing to happen again. This is how I feel about this matter. manner."
Su Yingxue suddenly became jealous, "You, you are too partial!"
"So what."
"I'm so disappointed in you!"
"It doesn't matter. Su Yingxue, I can't find Zhiyi now. Let me ask you, when you left Hangzhou Normal University, which direction did you see her walking in?"
Su Yingxue sat on the bed with an angry look on her face, holding her phone tightly, her joints turning white, biting her cheek and saying nothing.
Mingrui's voice soon came again: "Please tell me quickly, I believe that even if you are at odds with Zhiyi again, you don't want anything to happen to her."
Su Yingxue's heart skipped a beat, and she rolled her eyelids upward, trying to search through her memories of the afternoon, "She walked eastward along the path in front of the dormitory building."
"I see."
After hanging up Su Yingxue's phone, Octavia dialed Xiao Cheng's number directly.
Xiao Cheng's car had just driven into Hangzhou Normal University. When he saw the call, he picked it up immediately.
"Mr. Ming, I just arrived at Hangzhou Normal University. Okay, I'll go east along that road and find Sister Xu. I'll get back to you as soon as possible."
Sure enough, when he was nearing the end of the road, Xiao Cheng found Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi was sitting under a wooden bench under the street lamp, lowering his head and sobbing.
Xiao Cheng stopped the car, took out his mobile phone, and quickly recorded a short video of less than 10 seconds through the front glass of the car. After sending it to Octavia, he got out of the car and walked towards Xu Zhiyi.
"Little Sister Xu."
Hearing Xiao Cheng's voice, Xu Zhiyi raised his head, his eyes swollen from crying, and asked, "Xiao Cheng? Why are you here?"
Xiao Cheng sat next to her and smiled honestly, "Mr. Ming doesn't trust you, so he asked me to come find you."
Xu Zhiyi looked apologetic, "It's such a big holiday and it's so late. I'm asking you to make a trip. Xiao Cheng, I'm really troubling you."
Xiao Cheng shook his head, looked at the time, and said:
"Sister Xu, it's okay. If you are really sorry, just get in the car with me. It's almost 11 o'clock in the evening. If you don't want to go back to the dormitory, I will take you to Mr. Ming's residence in Hangzhou. The company arranged it for Mr. Ming. I just finished it, Mr. Ming has never lived here, it’s not far from here, let’s go, let’s go quickly.”
Xiao Cheng had already noticed something was wrong with the left side of Xu Zhiyi's face. Without asking a question, he pulled Xu Zhiyi into the car and started the car immediately.
Along the way, Xu Zhiyi kept lowering his head and covering the left side of his face, silent.
Xiao Cheng didn't talk to her and drove silently.
Half an hour later, the car entered the underground parking lot of a high-end residential area.
Xu Zhiyi followed Xiao Cheng into the elevator and watched him press the button for the 27th floor.
The elevator door opened, and she followed Xiao Cheng out and came to room 2701.
Xiao Cheng entered the unlocking password, pushed the door open, stepped aside, stood at the door, and said:
"Sister Xu, please go in quickly. You can choose any of the two bedrooms in the house. The bedding is all new, so you can use it without worry. There are also toiletries. I will send you the unlocking code later. Mr. Ming will order it for you. I ordered supper and it will be delivered soon. I'm leaving first. If you need anything, call me."
Xu Zhiyi thanked Xiao Cheng, but he just smiled, closed the door for her, and left.
As soon as he got on the elevator, Xiao Cheng called Octavia back.
"Mr. Ming, Miss Xu has made arrangements. Well... the left side of her face looks a little red and swollen, and I can't see anything anymore. It's nothing. You're welcome, Mr. Ming. Okay, goodbye, Mr. Ming."
As soon as the elevator door opened, Xiao Cheng saw a delivery boy and asked, "Is this delivery for 2701?"
Delivery boy: "Yes."
Xiao Cheng: "Just knock on the door and put the takeout at the door. I will tell the owner of the room to pick it up. Thank you."
"OK."
Later, Xu Zhiyi received a WeChat message from Xiao Cheng. As she was reading the content of the WeChat message, she heard a knock on the door. When she opened the door, she only saw the takeaway on the ground. The deliveryman had left.
Xu Zhiyi sighed softly, picked up the takeout and went into the house. Only then did he have the intention to look at the whole house.
The room looks quite big, with two bedrooms and two living rooms, a transparent layout from north to south, modern and simple style decoration, fresh and bright.
I didn't eat in the afternoon. Now, Xu Zhiyi was really hungry and sat down at the dining table with takeaway food.
At this moment, a WeChat message from Octavia was sent.
[Zhiyi, you did nothing wrong. Don’t be tortured by ruminations. With me here, you don’t have to be afraid of anything. I will protect you. Be good, be obedient, eat something first, take a shower, and have a good sleep. I'll call you tomorrow, okay? 】
Xu Zhiyi stared at the phone screen, first replied with the word "ok", and then typed four words, then clicked send with the corner of his mouth raised.
【good】
【Brother Octavia】
Xu Zhiyi pursed her lips and looked at the chat shyly, her peach blossom eyes shining brightly.
Soon, Octavia replied.
[Zhiyi, I really want to go back to China right now and hear you call me Brother Shengrui in person. 】
Xu Zhiyi's eyes widened and he replied immediately.
[It’s Brother Octavia, not Brother Octavia, you’re lying. 】
【ah? Did I cheat? Oh, I was wrong. I kept thinking that Zhiyi would call me brother, but Brother Octavia seems to be better. 】
Xu Zhiyi stared at the phone screen: "Uh..."
[Eat your midnight snack quickly, it will get cold if you don’t eat it. Go to bed early after eating. Good night, Zhiyi. 】
[Well, good night, Brother Octavia. 】
Xu Zhiyi's mood improved immediately and she opened the takeout. Inside there was a bowl of warm preserved egg and lean meat porridge and a crystal shrimp dumpling. The quantity was just right and the taste was light and sweet. She liked it very much.
After filling his stomach, Xu Zhiyi suddenly felt energetic. He took a bath with great interest and found that there was a beautiful white porcelain bathtub in the bathroom.
Growing up, she had been living in her family's house. The bathroom in the house was so small that there was no room for a toilet, so she had to use a squat toilet so there was room for a shower.
If she had any fantasy about the house, it was to have a bathroom with a bathtub.
She had never soaked in a bathtub.
Seeing this bathtub, she had the urge to take a hot bath. After hesitating for a while, she just took a shower, dried her hair, and came out.
The bathtub is a very personal thing and cannot be used without permission as it would be rude.
Before going to bed, she looked in the mirror and took a closer look at her face. The redness and swelling had subsided a lot. She still had a day off tomorrow, and she should be fine when she went to class the day after tomorrow.
Lying on the soft bed, Xu Zhiyi fell asleep quickly. When he opened his eyes again, it was bright outside.
It's really like sleeping until you wake up naturally.
It's already past 10 o'clock in the morning. Calculating the time, it should be past 4 o'clock in the morning in Paris.
Xu Zhiyi got up slowly. When he looked in the mirror, he saw that the swelling on the left side of his face had subsided and there were still some red marks. It was not a big problem. He would not see it after putting on makeup.
After briefly washing up, she had breakfast and lunch at a snack bar near the community, found a national chain of affordable daily necessities stores, and purchased a complete set of cosmetics.
Back at Mingrui's residence, Xu Zhiyi spent more than an hour putting on makeup carefully.
Look at the time, it's 1 o'clock at noon, it's 7 o'clock in the morning in Paris, Octavia should be awake.
She was a little anxious and tried to call Octavia.
