Zhou Ji still did not leave. Even though he knew that Su Zeyi was extremely hostile towards him, he did not have a thick face.
He was just standing there alone, surrounded by Su Zeyi's men, but there was a feeling that he could fight against an entire army, maybe it was just an illusion.
Speaking of which, Zhou Ji was very skinny, a little shorter than Su Zeyi, but he had a very amiable face, with tiger teeth in his smile, and a harmless look, it was hard to dislike him.
If they did not meet here, Zhong Miao Yi might be willing to talk to such a person.
He and Tang Yao were different. Tang Yao's warmth came from the inside, while Zhou Ji's warmth was like a layer of bright light that covered the ice-cold metal. It could only be seen from afar.
Su Zeyi didn't want to stay on this topic any longer. He reached out to grab Zhong Miao Yi's hand, but was stopped by Zhou Ji.
He immediately went close to Zhou Ji, twisted his wrist, and was about to use force. Su Zeyi rarely made his move, or perhaps, even more so, rarely made his move, but this time, only he was qualified to make a move against Zhou Ji.
Zhong Miao Yi thought that Zhou Ji was dead meat, and would never leave unscathed after provoking Su Zeyi.
However, Zhou Ji was not an ordinary person. Not only had he dodged Su Zeyi's attack, he had also successfully turned the defense into an attack, forcing Su Zeyi to take a step back.
Zhong Miao Yi inhaled a breath of cold air. In the next second, she saw Ban Qiu blocking Su Zeyi's way, looking at Zhou Ji unkindly.
Zhou Ji smiled and took a step back. "My kung fu is not bad, right? An accident? "
It was really unexpected. Su Zeyi straightened his sleeves that had been ripped apart, "It's only a matter of three days, I have my respect for you. Not to mention, it's already been ten years since we last met."
The reason why Zhou Ji had purposely come in front of him to do all of this should be so Su Zeyi would be able to look at him seriously and treat him as his real opponent.
Zhou Ji was not a friend but an enemy. He was sent by the empress dowager to suppress Su Zeyi.
In addition to the Emperor's fear of the Su Family, Zhou Ji's reliance on them was already within his expectations.
Su Zeyi's anger towards Zhou Ji had gone from a childhood memory to an official war. Zhou Ji had succeeded, angering Su Zeyi, and also allowed Su Zeyi to see clearly that he still had some strength.
But is that enough? What was not enough was that Su Zeyi was ambitious, he had galloped through the government for many years, his methods were thunderous, and his power overflowed into the sky. Without making a big mistake, no one would be able to easily shake Su Zeyi's position.
In Su Zeyi's eyes, Zhou Ji was still a child. A child who had learnt how to play with his heart, he was still considered interesting.
It was Su Zeyi's forte to add a little seasoning to his boring life.
"This year's New Year, we are all people that have our faces lit up, to be able to enter the palace and congratulate the Emperor, in the future when I settle down in the capital, I will have to trouble the Lord Su to take care of me." Reaching his goal, Zhou Ji's mood was especially good. He said a few words of courtesy to Su Zeyi, looked at Zhong Miao Yi, and turned to leave.
Su Zeyi squinted his eyes, and stretched his hand out, pulling Zhong Miao Yi closer: "Stay away from him!"
Seeing that Zhong Miao Yi did not say anything, Su Zeyi increased the power in his hands, saw Zhong Miao Yi frowning, and said: "Did you hear that?"
"You're hurting me." Zhong Miao Yi shaking off his hand, ordering her was a habit. Zhong Miao Yi hated this habit of his, even if there were concerns and worries mixed in, it still changed the taste.
Right now, it was still far from the start of the banquet. Su Zeyi sighed, then turned to Bell: "Bring her down there to have a good rest."
He was frightened when he came here and kept running around in the palace. He really didn't know what was on this girl's mind.
Initially, she thought Su Zeyi would go first, but she did not expect him to stand in silence for a while, then suddenly said: "I will accompany you."
Zhong Miao Yi did not reject, and went to confront Su Zeyi at this time, it was as if they were taking out a barrel of gunpowder.
As Ban Qiu watched from afar, she finally understood a few things. If she had understood earlier, she wouldn't have suffered so much.
Su Zeyi picked a quiet place for Zhong Miao Yi to stay, the effects of the Lord Su's words were very useful, the small hut was quickly cleaned up, Su Zeyi coldly looked at Zhong Miao Yi as he laid on the bed and got up: "You are not allowed to run around, I will come back later to find you."
What was he thinking? Zhong Miao Yi felt that Su Zeyi was a little nervous, but he didn't know what he was nervous about.
He turned around and walked to the door, then looked at Ban Qiu. "Why is there an old man by her side?"
Ban Qiu cut to the chase, since she did not know much about it herself, she could only objectively describe it.
After Su Zeyi finished listening, he frowned, "She is a person with a body, why are you allowing her to cause trouble?"
Ban Qiu disagreed: "What else? I am responsible for ensuring her safety. Since she is happy, then let's just go and do it. It's not a big deal. It's not like I asked her to climb over the wall to play. "
He had a point!
Su Zeyi did not buy into his words, and pointed behind him: "Next time, do not let her wander around, the Empress Dowager is always looking for me, I cannot always watch over her, if something happens and I am not able to arrive in time, what should I do? This is the palace. How many eyes are fixed on her stomach? "
Su Zeyi was serious, he truly cared about this child from the Zhong Miao Yi.
It was because of this child that their relationship finally began to soften. She was full of expectations for this child, so she treated him with an extra touch of peace.
Su Zeyi carefully protected his pride that was too strong, and carefully protected this rare peace as well.
Ban Qiu was startled, he knew that there were many people eyeing him covetously, but she did not consider too much into her confidence in her own strength.
Su Zeyi was right, this was the imperial palace. If he was unhappy, he could leave, but if he went alone, he could throw off the heavy and cumbersome soldiers.
In the eyes of others, he was a servant of the Zhong Miao Yi. Whatever he did, he would be connected to the Zhong Miao Yi by a thread, and there were some things that could not be seen from an individual's point of view.
"I know." Ban Qiu agreed with Su Zeyi. He turned his head and looked at the closed door, "Don't worry, I don't want anything to happen to Xiao Yi more than you do. She has suffered too much already."
Su Zeyi did not say anything more.
He left immediately, and Ban Qiu muttered to himself while staring at his back: "Every time I pretend to be cool, it's actually not cool at all."
After saying that, he raised his hand to rub his chin. "I'm the coolest."
