C63 Confidence
When it was the agreed time at night, Qi Hanyi drove over to pick up Su Miaomiao.
Su Miaomiao, who was dressed beautifully, twisted her slender waist under Qi Hanyi's gaze. She took snake-like steps and got into his car.
Qi Hanyi saw that the corners of her lips had always been slightly curled up and asked curiously, "What good things happened today? Why are you so happy?"
Su Miaomiao put on her seatbelt and looked at Qi Hanyi with a hint of teasing at the corner of her mouth.
"Yi is willing to take me to the banquet to make new friends. Of course Miaomiao is happy!"
It was not that Su Miaomiao deliberately hid it from Qi Hanyi.
Before Deng Wan went out, she reminded her many times not to tell Qi Hanyi about this matter before the matter was settled.
In her words, if it could succeed, there would be three more layers of hope for her to marry Qi Hanyi.
The mother and daughter hated Lan Yan and her daughter, and Qi Hanyi hated Qi Jincheng as well.
Su Miaomiao looked at the road in front of her. When she thought about what would happen to Su Xiaoxiao tonight, the smile on her lips deepened.
On the way, Qi Hanyi quietly observed Su Miaomiao.
He saw that she would always smile unconsciously.
According to his understanding of Su Miaomiao, this girl definitely had something to hide from him.
He did not know if it was an illusion or not, but he kept feeling that this matter was related to Su Xiaoxiao.
After thinking for a moment, Qi Hanyi lowered his head and fiddled with his phone.
He typed quickly on the chat interface, which attracted Su Miaomiao's attention.
She wanted to go closer to take a look, but Qi Hanyi inadvertently avoided her.
The more it was like this, the more it aroused Su Miaomiao's curiosity. She deliberately acted spoiled to Qi Hanyi and asked who he was chatting with.
Qi Hanyi put down his phone and looked at Su Miaomiao thoughtfully.
"My friend's manor has just opened. He invited me to attend."
"Manor?"
Su Miaomiao was curious.
"Yes, the one in western suburb."
"They invited me to participate, but I don't have a suitable partner yet."
That piece of land in western suburb was contracted by someone two years ago. At that time, they said that they wanted to build a manor, but there was no news after that.
It turned out that it had only been built this year.
Su Miaomiao was thinking in her heart.
It was said that he was a young master who had just returned from studying abroad. He had grown up in the circle of luxury since young. Any friend of his would be a dragon among men.
Wasn't this better than the lady that Old Master Qi met at the birthday banquet?
Su Miaomiao thought about this and almost stuck herself onto Qi Hanyi. She pretended to be angry and said, "Yi's words are like an outsider. Miaomiao is sitting beside him, but Yi said that he doesn't have a suitable female companion."
Qi Hanyi's lips curled up. He took out two invitation cards from his pocket like a magic trick and even waved them in front of Su Miaomiao's eyes twice. "Why are you happy today? Tell me, this invitation card is yours."
Su Miaomiao bit her lips and looked at the invitation card in his hand. She was caught in a dilemma.
Actually, from the beginning, Qi Hanyi was prepared to give the invitation to Su Miaomiao.
After all, it was very shameful to take her out.
But coincidentally, Su Miaomiao had something to hide from him, so Qi Hanyi could use her a little.
After some internal conflict, Su Miaomiao still compromised.
She told Qi Hanyi about Su Xiaoxiao listlessly and immediately felt guilty.
Anyway, Qi Hanyi would know about this sooner or later.
What she did did did not affect the overall situation. It was not considered a rebellion!
Su Miaomiao comforted herself in her heart.
Because she went against her mother's instructions, Su Miaomiao was preoccupied at the banquet.
The whispering chatter at the banquet made her even more annoyed.
After whispering something in Qi Hanyi's ear, Su Miaomiao got up and left the banquet. She went to the bathroom alone.
Standing in front of the mirror, Su Miaomiao placed her hands on the washing table. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She did not notice that the door of the toilet compartment was quietly pushed open. A woman who looked like her walked over and took advantage of the moment when she opened her eyes. A hand knife hit the back of her neck.
Su Miaomiao did not have time to cry out in shock and her body went limp.
Her vision went black and she was instantly unconscious.
...
At the banquet, a man dressed in fashionable clothing escaped from everyone's toasts.
He went to the bathroom and lowered his head to wash his face.
When he left, he heard sobbing in his ear.
Yuri felt that the sound was somewhat familiar. He walked towards the source of the sound and finally arrived at a door.
He pressed the door handle with his hand and did not press it.
The door was locked.
Yuri knocked three times on the door. "Who's inside?"
The sobbing became louder, but no one answered.
"Move back and stay away from the door."
Yuri heard the sobbing get further away, so he also took a few steps back. Then he rushed forward and hit the door sideways.
"Bang!"
The door shook violently, but it did not open.
Yuri frowned and rubbed his aching shoulder. He knocked the door twice before it let out a sorrowful cry. Finally, it was knocked open.
The sobbing inside was no longer blocked and became even louder.1
Yuri reached out and pressed the light. He discovered that this was a storage room. Among the pile of items, a young lady wearing a skirt was squatting inside and sobbing with her head lowered.
After hearing his voice, the young lady narrowed her eyes and raised her head.
Su Xiaoxiao!
...
In front of the brightly lit mansion, a black Maybach sped over from afar.
As it approached the mansion, it did not stop.
The driver drove the car straight into the courtyard. When it was about to hit the stairs, it swung its tail rapidly. When the car was almost parallel to the stairs, it finally stopped.
The security guards looked at each other in dismay. They held electric batons in their hands and approached the car.
However, the back door of the car was opened from the inside and a tall but thin person stepped out.
That person had a beautiful but feminine face and a cold aura around him, making people not dare to approach him.
After seeing that face, the security guard immediately put away the iron rod. "Young Master Qi?"
Qi Jincheng walked past the security guard and entered the banquet hall.
His arrival made everyone stop what they were doing and their eyes followed him.
"Brother?"
In a corner surrounded by people, Qi Hanyi narrowed his eyes and looked at Qi Jincheng who was striding over.
However, the latter ignored everyone. His long legs took a few steps up the stairs and disappeared around the corner.
Some people began to talk in low voices, while others followed Qi Jincheng up the stairs.
When Qi Jincheng came to the corridor upstairs, the door of a guest bedroom was opened. Yuri stood in the corridor and waved at Qi Jincheng.
"Jincheng, here!"
Qi Jincheng walked over with a solemn face. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Su Xiaoxiao curled up on the bed.
Su Xiaoxiao hugged her legs and curled up in the corner of the bed and the wall.
She was still wearing the long dress from when she went missing. Her long hair was messy, and it was on her shoulders.
It had only been a day since they last saw each other, and Su Xiaoxiao had already become in such a sorry state.
"Xiaoxiao?"
Qi Jincheng clenched his fists and slowly walked to the bedside. He tried to call her softly.
Su Xiaoxiao's body stiffened when she heard the familiar voice. She slowly raised her head.
Her beautiful face was full of tears. After seeing Qi Jincheng, Su Xiaoxiao bit her lips in grievance and threw herself into his arms.
