Chapter 239 Abandoned Woman of the Republic of China 22
The two of them unknowingly walked to the door of a jewelry store.
Qin Susu was attracted by the dazzling array of jewelry in the store, especially the exquisite bracelets.
She fell in love with several bracelets at first sight, but the one that attracted her the most was the jade bracelet with a higher price tag.
At the same time, she also likes this lotus bracelet. The lotus on it is lifelike and very eye-catching.
Originally, Qin Susu was still struggling with how to buy it, and Zhang Qu next to her suggested choosing a jade bracelet, and thinking about the lotus silver bracelet for another night.
After thinking it over that night, Qin Susu decided that she still liked the lotus silver bracelet.
The next day she took Zhang Qu to buy it again, but she didn't expect that the bracelet had been sold.
At that time, Zhang Qu was guarding outside and did not follow him into the store.
Now I think that he must have been guilty and didn't dare to follow me.
Qin Susu couldn't bear it any longer, and was about to rush out with an angry look on her face.
Azhi was quick to grab her.
"What are you going to do? Do you want to rush out and question Zhang Qu?"
Qin Susu, who was already angry to the point of losing her mind, said unwillingly, "I was so good to Zhang Qu, how could he betray me."
"If I hadn't asked my brother to keep him, he would have gone to the war by now, and might even have died on the battlefield. I also asked my brother to increase his monthly salary..."
Looking at Qin Susu's red eyes, her face was filled with disbelief and shock.
Azhi hugged her with heartache and comforted her softly.
"Susu, I think you are a little too excited. This reaction is very abnormal. Logically speaking, Zhang Qu is just someone who protects you. In the end, he is just a servant."
"Even if he and Li Furao really have a relationship, you shouldn't be so excited and angry."
As Azhi spoke, he stared closely into Qin Susu's eyes, as if trying to see through her true thoughts.
Qin Susu couldn't help but look away, her eyes filled with crystal tears.
She trembled slightly and said, "I don't know what's wrong with me. Whenever I think of Zhang Qu betraying me, my heart feels like it's been cut by a knife and the pain is unbearable."
At this moment, Qin Susu's gaze involuntarily drifted away and fell on Zhang Qu, who was talking and laughing with Li Furao not far away.
Seeing this, Ah Zhi grabbed the unconscious Qin Susu tightly and said firmly, "Come on, come back with me first. Some things must be thought through before we can find a solution."
"If you keep letting this matter bother you, it will become a thorn that can never be pulled out, deeply embedded in your heart. Do you understand?"
After saying that, Azhi pulled Qin Susu out.
Qin Susu, who had just returned to the Qin family, unexpectedly bumped into Qin Zhuoyang.
Qin Zhuoyang had been taking care of his health these days. As soon as his health started to improve, he went downstairs to take a walk and exercise.
Unexpectedly, I met Qin Susu with red eyes as soon as I went downstairs.
Qin Zhuoyang frowned slightly, hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Qin Susu's hand and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are your eyes red? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to call a doctor to come and take a look?"
Faced with Qin Zhuoyang's concerned inquiries, Qin Susu could no longer control the tears she had been holding back. They burst out like a flood, and teardrops as big as beans slid down her cheeks.
She threw herself into Qin Zhuoyang's arms, hugged him tightly and burst into tears.
This time, it happened to touch Qin Zhuoyang's wound. He frowned and a painful expression appeared on his face, but he still endured the pain and gently patted Qin Susu's back.
"Don't be afraid, don't cry, tell me if you have any grievances."
Azhi, who was standing by, saw that Qin Zhuoyang's face was getting paler, and she wanted to go forward and support him worriedly.
Qin Zhuoyang waved his hands, indicating that he was fine, and shook his head gently.
He mouthed the word "no problem" to Ah Zhong, and then continued to comfort Qin Susu in his arms.
Qin Zhuoyang endured the pain from Qin Susu touching his wound and helped Qin Susu sit on the sofa and asked.
"Tell me, what happened when you went out?"
"It's okay, I just haven't seen my brother for a long time, I'm afraid something happened to him."
Originally, Qin Susu wanted to pour out her grievances to Qin Zhuoyang, but she suddenly stopped when the words came to her lips.
She didn't want to add more trouble and pressure to Qin Zhuoyang, so she held back her tears and pretended to be strong.
"Brother, you must take good care of yourself and don't let anything happen to you."
Qin Susu's voice trembled slightly, with a hint of fear and worry that was hard to conceal.
She snuggled tightly in Qin Zhuoyang's arms, as if only in this way could she find some sense of security.
Qin Zhuoyang gently stroked her hair and comforted her, "Don't worry, silly girl, brother will be fine."
His tone was firm yet gentle, trying to reassure Qin Susu.
The two hugged each other tightly, and their body temperature was transmitted to each other, bringing an inexplicable warmth.
This warmth did not eliminate Qin Susu's deep-seated worries.
She prayed silently, hoping that God would bless Qin Zhuoyang and his father with safety.
Thinking about Qin Zhuoyang's wound, Azhi on the side couldn't bear it anymore, she walked up and held Qin Susu's hand.
"Didn't you say you would take me upstairs? You have something else to say to me. Let's go upstairs now."
In fact, Qin Susu cried not only for Zhang Qu, but also for her brother and father.
Qin Susu didn't say the complaint that was on the tip of her tongue because she didn't want to make her brother worry.
If Qin Zhuoyang knew about this, Zhang Qu would definitely be retaliated by Qin Zhuoyang.
She knew very well what kind of person her brother was. Once it came to her affairs, Qin Zhuoyang would often lose his rationality and become impulsive.
Although Qin Susu was heartbroken by Zhang Qu's betrayal, she did not intend to take any drastic action against Zhang Qu.
She didn't want to see Zhang Qu suffer misfortune because of her.
They were old acquaintances, not to mention that Li Furao had also helped Zhang Qu.
Qin Susu wiped away her tears and nodded.
"Well, brother, Sister Yu and I still have something to talk about, so let's go upstairs first."
"Okay, you guys go up."
Qin Zhuoyang replied gently.
Qin Zhuoyang had actually already guessed that his wound must have split open.
But he still pretended to be relaxed on the surface.
Watching Qin Susu and Azhi slowly walk up the stairs, Qin Zhuoyang then gently placed his hand on the wound.
He turned and went upstairs to Azhi's room, ready to re-bandage the wound.
At this time, Qin Susu was sitting in the room like a zombie, looking very depressed.
She lay on the table with lifeless eyes, as if she had lost her soul.
Azhi beside her silently poured her a glass of water and said softly, "Drink some water."
"No, I want to drink."
Qin Susu pouted and buried her head in her arms, her voice full of annoyance and willfulness.
Azhi sighed helplessly and had to put the cup down.
"Don't think too much. Zhang Qu and Li Furao are friends who already know each other, so this is not a betrayal..."
However, before Azhi could finish speaking, Qin Susu could no longer control her emotions, tears welled up in her eyes and she started yelling loudly.
"How can it not be considered betrayal? It is obviously the bracelet I like. If Zhang Qu hadn't deliberately told me not to buy it, I would have worn it on my wrist by now."
"Zhang Qu stole something that belonged to me and gave it to please Li Furao. No, I'm going to kill him!"
Qin Susu had calmed down, but when she thought of her favorite lotus silver bracelet, her anger was ignited again.
Qin Susu wanted to find Zhang Qu and settle the score immediately.
But Azhi pulled her back again.
"Okay, don't be angry. This matter needs time to be resolved. Even if you question Zhang Qu now, there will be no result. Do you really want to kill him and Li Furao?"
Qin Susu gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, "Are you going to let them go so easily?"
Ah Zhi looked at Qin Susu and suddenly asked, "Susu, do you like Zhang Qu?"
Qin Susu obviously didn't want to admit this feeling in person.
Azhi simply asked directly.
Qin Susu's expression changed instantly, and she denied it in a panic, "No, no, no, I don't like Zhang Qu..."
But she seemed guilty when facing Azhi.
Qin Susu's eyes were red and her voice was trembling slightly.
"Sister Yu, I may really like Zhang Qu. He is very considerate to me and takes care of me in every detail..."
Zhang Qu really took good care of Qin Susu. I remember that once there was a dish of shrimp on the table, Zhang Qu considerately peeled all the shrimp meat and gave it to Qin Susu.
Every time Qin Susu went out shopping, Zhang Qu would prepare the car for her in advance, and even start paying attention to the weather forecast the day before, just to prepare an umbrella for her in advance.
Zhang Qu always stood on Qin Susu's side and spoke for her, and always took very good care of Qin Susu.
I'm sure any girl would be attracted to such a handsome, gentle and considerate boy, right?
What's more, Qin Susu has never liked any boy. At this age when she is just beginning to fall in love, it is natural that she is easily moved.
Ah Zhi hugged Qin Susu distressedly and comforted her softly, "It's okay, you don't have to like him, let alone be moved by him."
"Think about the money you asked your brother to raise for him, and it all makes sense."
"He just wanted to get something from you. Now everything he has is thanks to you."
Qin Susu leaned in Azhi's arms, breathing heavily.
"Is he just using me?"
"What do you think? If you count a few years ago, Zhang Qu was just a servant in your Qin family."
In previous feudal dynasties, Zhang Qu would have been beaten to death for such behavior.
Qin Susu is a very rational girl. She was gritting her teeth in hatred towards Zhang Qu just now, but now she has come to terms with Azhi's gentle comfort.
She raised her head and nodded with tears in her eyes.
"I understand, Sister Yu, he and I are just in an employment relationship, I pay the money and he does the work."
"If I still have feelings for him, it would seem too cheap of me."
"Sister Yu, I suddenly don't like him anymore. He is a person who has nothing and now betrays me. It's really not worth it."
Azhi likes to reason with people who can understand things quickly.
As long as Qin Susu can let it go.
Many things will be solved naturally.
After comforting Qin Susu to sleep, Azhi hurried back to his room.
She pushed open the door and saw Qin Zhuoyang taking off his clothes. The wound that had already scabbed over was oozing blood.
There was a hint of pain on Qin Zhuoyang's stern face, and even beads of sweat hung on his fair forehead.
"hiss……"
His attention was completely focused on the wound, and he didn't notice that Azhi had returned.
It was not until Azhi slowly approached with the medicine box that Qin Zhuoyang suddenly came to his senses and looked at her with confused eyes.
At this time, Azhi was frowning and observing the wounds on Qin Zhuoyang's body intently.
There was a hint of worry and concern on her face.
"The wound had been gradually healing, but now due to the secondary injury, I am afraid I will need to rest for a few more days before I can recover."
"Young Marshal, you'd better ask a doctor to come and take a look."
If this wound is not treated properly, the recovery will be very slow, so it is better to let a professional doctor treat it.
Qin Zhuoyang shook his head firmly, his face looking very pale.
He said slowly, "Don't bother the doctor. The wound is just a little torn. It will heal in a few days."
"It is not appropriate to draw too much attention at this moment, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."
Qin Zhuoyang knew very well that in order to ensure the safety and stability of Nanping, he had to endure. Although the wound was painful, he still chose to endure it silently.
Azhi sighed deeply, with a hint of helplessness and worry in his tone.
"Isn't your health important? What if your health is affected by such a small thing? And this wound will definitely leave a scar."
In response to Azhi's concern, Qin Zhuoyang smiled slightly, indicating that he didn't care.
He believed that time would heal all wounds, including these scars.
While Ah Zhi was packing up, Qin Zhuoyang half-leaned on the bed, shirtless, and suddenly asked, "Did Su Su suffer any injustice?"
His voice was low and gentle, full of care and concern for SuSu.
I didn't expect that Qin Zhuoyang could see through it.
Azhi paused and shook his head.
"No, Susu is fine. I'm just worried about you. I haven't seen you for a long time."
"General Qin is still lying in bed, and his wounds have not healed yet. Susu knows how badly General Qin was injured, so she is naturally worried about you now."
Faced with Azhi's serious explanation, Qin Zhuoyang shook his head gently and was very sure.
"My sister, I know her best. She doesn't cry easily."
"Something must have happened today, Miss Yu, can you tell me?"
Is this Qin Zhuoyang a fortune teller?
Qin Susu didn't want Qin Zhuoyang to know about her affairs, and Azhi certainly wouldn't choose to meddle in her affairs.
"It's really okay. Young Marshal is thinking too much. You just stayed in the room for too long."
"When your body recovers a little, you should go out for a walk and relax from time to time, and don't get bored."
Seeing that Azhi didn't seem to be lying, Qin Zhuoyang didn't continue asking.
