Shen Liannuo drove back to Qin Xin Ju. Several luxury cars were already parked outside Qin Xin Ju. She didn't recognize most of them, and even the license plates were unfamiliar.
However, one of the cars belonged to Lu Yanming. She had seen it before in his garage.
After parking her car, they walked to the entrance of Qin Xin Ju, entered the password, and went inside.
As they passed through the villa's small courtyard, they could hear voices from inside.
"Hey?!"
Suddenly, a figure sprang out from behind a green plant, rushing towards Meng Jingwei.
At that moment, Meng Jingwei, who was talking to Shen Liannuo, sensed danger and kicked out at the approaching person.
"Ah!"
Bang—!
The person who was kicked flew back, screamed, and then fell to the ground with a thud.
Meng Jingwei looked closely and realized it was Qiao Ziqian.
She instinctively glanced at Shen Liannuo, and they both hurried over to pat the unconscious person. "Hey, Qiao Ziqian, wake up?"
Meng Jingwei reached out and patted his face. "Qiao Ziqian, stop messing around and wake up."
"Little Pepper, you're back... Hey? What happened to that idiot Qiao Ziqian?" Tang Si, who had just arrived at the door and was about to light a cigarette, saw them. As he was greeting them, he caught sight of Qiao Ziqian lying on the ground.
"That idiot was hiding behind the tree and jumped out to scare us. Jingwei thought someone was attacking and kicked him away," Shen Liannuo explained.
"Stop talking. Tang Si, quickly come and carry him inside," Meng Jingwei instructed Tang Si.
Tang Si threw the cigarette he was holding on the ground, crushed the butt with the tip of his shoe, walked over, pulled the unconscious Qiao Ziqian up, and carried him into the living room.
Everyone was in the living room. They were initially delighted to see Meng Jingwei and Shen Liannuo return, and then they all asked about Qiao Ziqian's condition.
Qing Muye greeted Meng Jingwei and went to arrange for Tang Si to take the person upstairs and find a family doctor to examine him.
A short while later, the family doctor came out of the room and explained to the people standing at the door, "Don't worry, he's fine. It was just low blood sugar, and he happened to hit his head, which made him faint. He's awake now."
"It's good that he's okay." Meng Jingwei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her worried heart finally at ease. "I'll go in and take a look."
"I'll go too," Shen Liannuo said and followed her in.
Then Qing Muye and his brothers all entered the bedroom together.
On the bed in the bedroom, Qiao Ziqian lay with a pale face. Seeing the group enter, his fair and delicate face showed no expression.
"Hey, idiot, are you okay?" Tang Si leaned forward and asked carelessly.
Meng Jingwei asked with concern, "How are you feeling? Are you okay?"
"He's awake now, he should be fine."
"Don't suddenly jump out again next time. This time Jingwei kicked you, but next time it could cost you your life."
"That's right, you should remember what Liannuo said."
...
They spoke one after another, but Qiao Ziqian just stared at them blankly, his brow furrowed, looking completely bewildered. Finally, he mumbled, "I feel dizzy, I want to sleep."
"Alright, you rest first." Meng Jingwei nodded. "Let's go out." She held Qing Muye's hand and walked out of the room with the others, closing the door.
They all went downstairs first. Meng Jingwei then looked at Qing Muye and said coldly, "Come with me!"
Qing Muye raised an eyebrow. As he glanced at his good friends, they gave him a look that said 'good luck.'
"Okay."
He responded, walked to the study next door, opened the door, and went in.
Meng Jingwei followed closely, closed the door, glared at him, and walked to the study's balcony with a slightly cold expression.
