Chapter 167 People you care about
Xiao Chuyi gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice, "Chen Yue, what do you want?"
Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between teeth, full of anger and dissatisfaction.
Chen Yue looked at him carefully, a smug smile on his face: "You should ask me this, right? I want to know why you don't tell Su Yanqing who you are."
Her tone was gentle and slow, but the sense of pressure contained in it made people feel uncomfortable.
After saying these words, Chen Yue leaned forward slightly and moved closer to Xiao Chuyi's ear, whispering in a voice almost like a secret: "The man last night should be Xiao Anxun, the second young master of the Xiao family, right? Do you think I don't know him? In fact, I recognized him as soon as he appeared."
These words were like a sharp knife, accurately cutting into the depths of Xiao Chuyi's heart.
Then, Chen Yue walked around Xiao Chuyi and stopped like an elegant leopard looking for the best angle of attack.
Then he asked, "You two brothers are really interesting. One of you broke into Su Yanqing's house drunk, and the other one is hiding his identity. What on earth are you doing?"
The question was simple and direct, but it revealed her keen insight and the threat that might be hidden behind it.
Chen Yue walked up to Xiao Chuyi again and stood in front of him.
At this moment, their eyes met, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
Xiao Chuyi's brows were furrowed, his eyes seemed to be burning with rage, and his hands were clenched into fists.
His muscles trembled slightly due to the intense fluctuations of emotions, revealing his great inner anxiety and struggle at the moment.
"Xiao Chuyi."
Sensing the growing tension in the air, Chen Yue said in an extremely calm, even icy tone, "Whatever your plans are, I can help you, but only if you tell me your purpose. Otherwise, I will expose your identity right now."
Although the words are plain, each word is precious and each syllable hits the point, making it impossible to ignore its potential harm.
Faced with this situation, Xiao Chuyi chose to remain silent. He closed his lips tightly and looked solemn.
Seeing him like this, Chen Yue snorted disdainfully, with a hint of contempt and provocation on her face. She raised her foot and walked towards Su Yanqing's room with a brisk pace, as if she didn't care about the situation in front of her.
She had only taken a few steps when she was stopped by a firm hand.
This sudden obstruction startled her slightly, and she stopped involuntarily.
Glancing sideways at Chen Yue, Xiao Chuyi's eyes were as calm as water, and his tone was not the slightest bit fluctuating: "I can tell you the reason. But this is not a good place to talk. I can't let Yanqing know the truth now."
There was an unquestionable determination in his words.
Chen Yue's eyes became more cunning, as if he was thinking about something secretly. He raised his eyebrows, and a hint of irony appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I really didn't expect that the eldest young master of the Xiao family also cares about someone so much."
She said this in a teasing tone, as if trying to provoke the other person's emotions.
"You can want to know why I did this, but you have to explain it to Yanqing. There's nothing wrong between us."
Xiao Chuyi's words contained demands that could not be ignored, and his eyes became stern.
Chen Yue curled his lips, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and sneered: "As if I still want to have anything with you."
Her tone was full of disdain, trying to express her dissatisfaction.
Xiao Chuyi tightened his grip on Chen Yue's wrist a little and looked at her with a warning look. This action was obviously a silent threat, hoping that she would take his request seriously.
The latter curled his lips helplessly, obviously feeling uncomfortable with the feeling of being coerced: "Okay, okay, I promise you, isn't that enough?"
As she spoke, her tone was filled with obvious compromise and helplessness.
Xiao Chuyi then let go of his hand and turned to look towards Su Yanqing's bedroom. His back looked a little lonely and hesitant.
He wanted to tell Su Yanqing everything today, but when he heard how Su Yanqing addressed Xiao Anxun yesterday, he realized that Su Yanqing chose Xiao Anxun because she mistakenly thought he was the Xiao An from her childhood.
The original plan was to tell the whole truth, hoping to set things right and restore the original appearance of the facts.
did not expect……
Buzz - the vibration of his cell phone interrupted his thoughts. Xiao Chuyi frowned and reached into his pocket to take out the phone. A message from An Mo appeared on the screen: There is an emergency at home, come back quickly.
An Mo has always been steady and would never contact me like this unless something big happened.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chuyi frowned, put away his phone, and said to Chen Yue seriously: "Don't forget to explain it to me clearly, otherwise I won't tell you anything."
His tone was filled with warning and determination.
Chen Yue seemed a little impatient and waved his hand to signal him to leave quickly: "Okay, got it, let's go!"
There was still a hint of disdain in her tone.
Xiao Chuyi looked at Su Yanqing's room again, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
He thought for a while, then shook his head and quickly left the place.
In the room, Su Yanqing kept sticking to the door and listening carefully to the sounds outside.
She hoped to catch any clues, but Xiao Chuyi and Chen Yue spoke in very low voices, almost like whispers, so she couldn't hear anything.
She was extremely anxious and almost stuck to the door. She wished she could become smaller and squeeze into the crack to hear everything clearly.
Suddenly, there was a rapid and powerful knock on the door. The sound was like a muffled thunder, causing Su Yanqing to feel a sharp pain in her ears.
She quickly covered her painful ears, staggered back a few steps, and gently patted her frightened ears with her palms to relieve the discomfort.
Chen Yue's voice came clearly from outside the door: "Sister Yanqing, come out and eat something. Alan has left."
Hearing this, although her ears were still aching, Su Yanqing didn't care about it. She suddenly opened the door and asked her own question in confusion and surprise: "Gone, gone?"
Chen Yue looked at the other person with a hint of amusement in his eyes. Then he smiled and told the truth: "Yes, he has other things to deal with and can't stay here any longer. If you have any questions, you can come to me directly."
After she finished speaking, she took the initiative to move forward a little, with a sly smile on her face, and winked at Su Yanqing twice, and suggested in a light-hearted tone: "Sister Yanqing, let's start chatting now?"
It took about half an hour to drive back to the Xiao family villa.
An Mo had arrived early and was waiting anxiously in front of the villa gate.
When he saw the familiar car slowly approaching from afar, he immediately stepped forward to greet it, his voice filled with anxiety and anticipation: "Boss Xiao, you're finally back."
