"His skills are inferior to others. Zhou Ji has nothing to say." Zhou Ji waved his hands in a carefree manner.
Su Zeyi still looked at him coldly, until Yun Mengqi suddenly pounced on him.
Su Zeyi jumped in shock, afraid that he would be unable to explain himself to the empress dowager after injuring her with his sword. He immediately threw the sword away and frowned at her, "Why did you run around so recklessly?"
Yun Mengqi felt around his body before she heaved a sigh of relief, "It's good that you're not injured." Then, she turned around and said, "What happened to you two? Why are they suddenly fighting again?! "
Zhou Ji did not say a word, staring straight at Su Zeyi.
Yun Mengqi was ignored and was about to flare up, but Su Zeyi pulled her back: "Go inside the house."
After saying that, he turned around and glanced at the servants at the entrance of the courtyard. This glance scared everyone into scattering, and in the blink of an eye, there was no one left.
Although he didn't really like Zhou Ji, but seeing that he was about to be punished, Zhong Miao Yi more or less felt that it was related to him, and felt a little sorry in his heart.
But in reality, Zhou Ji had already planned to have a good fight with Su Zeyi a long time ago, and the reason why he kept provoking Su Zeyi was because of this.
That included the purpose of taking Zhong Miao Yi out today.
He wanted to prove that he could practice martial arts. This obsession had been in his heart for too many years, and he didn't want to hold it in any longer.
However, Su Zeyi did not give him a chance to prove himself. Or rather, in front of Su Zeyi, he wanted to prove that he was an impossible mission.
Yun Mengqi followed Su Zeyi into the room. Seeing that Su Zeyi was naturally pulling on Zhong Miao Yi's hands, and feeling that her hands were warm, Yun Mengqi finally felt at ease.
Zhou Ji didn't laugh anymore. He looked like a naughty student trying to compete with his teacher, but to no avail.
Su Zeyi kept his word, the punishment was definitely already decided, Zhou Ji looked for a place to sit with an indifferent expression.
He looked like a dead pig that wasn't afraid of boiling water.
Su Zeyi did not look at her, and instead stared at Yun Mengqi: "What are you doing here?"
Yun Mengqi was startled for a moment. When Su Zeyi asked this question, it was as if she was an uninvited guest.
But Yun Mengqi still forced herself to laugh: "Let me see, I'm afraid you guys are injured."
Su Zeyi just politely asked, he did not really want to know what she came for.
The atmosphere was a little heavy, and no one spoke. Su Zeyi sat with his head lowered, playing with the Zhong Miao Yi's pearl in her hand.
Zhong Miao Yi sat there calmly, she did not feel anything, it was basically her room.
Zhou Ji was even more so, his eyes never leaving Su Zeyi.
For the first time, Yun Mengqi felt that she was unnecessary. This time, she truly felt that she was unnecessary from the bottom of her heart.
Did he think that it wasn't good for her to chase him away, so he gave her enough leeway?
Yun Mengqi bit her lower lip, feeling so wronged that she was about to cry, but she was even more afraid that if she continued to stay here, Su Zeyi would bother her.
Yun Mengqi took a deep breath and stood up, then squeezed out a smile at Su Zeyi: "Since you guys are fine, then I can relax, I still have some matters I need to take care of, so I'll be leaving first."
Su Zeyi was worrying about how to take Yun Mengqi away, but who knew that this girl would actually understand his meaning after looking at him for so long?
Su Zeyi slightly nodded, and said softly: "I'll go see you in a while."
Think of it as compensation.
When Yun Mengqi heard this, she was extremely happy. Ever since she lost her children, she could only count the number of times Su Zeyi had visited her with one hand.
For her to say such words today, it would be worth it even if she had to suffer a little.
Only after Yun Mengqi had happily left did Su Zeyi raise his head and look Zhou Ji in the eye. "Why are you bringing her out? Don't you know she has a body?! What's the matter, can you handle it? "
Zhou Ji smiled. "Isn't everything alright?" I brought you back safely. "
Su Zeyi was so angry that he almost died. He knew that Zhou Ji's target was him, and thought that he would just ignore him.
Thinking up to here, Su Zeyi became even more angry, turned his head and said to the Zhong Miao Yi: "Are you stupid too? Aren't you afraid that something will happen if you follow him out? Ban Qiu, you don't want it anymore?! "
Zhong Miao Yi was startled, but just as she was about to retort, she was blocked by Ban Qiu.
Ban Qiu shook her head at her as she took in a deep breath.
Su Zeyi lowered his head and endured his anger for a while. When he raised his head again, it was already about time to calm down.
"I can't let you off easily on this matter. Remember, don't come to this courtyard again. Once the renovations of the Zhou Mansion are over, I'll personally send you there." Su Zeyi did not give any face at all. He pondered for a moment, then said softly, "From today onwards, you will have to be outside the courtyard every night. You will only need to wear your clothes wrapped around your body, and only after your clothes drenched in sweat can you get up.
Zhou Ji couldn't beat him, so he had to punish him physically.
On such a cold day, it would be difficult for him to perspire in a horse stance. He even had to wet his clothes. If he kept tormenting himself for a whole week, it would be weird if he didn't get sick!
Zhong Miao Yi frowned and held Su Zeyi's hand: "One week is too long. Three days is about enough."
Su Zeyi glared at her: I haven't punished you yet and you're still loyal right? After a trip, there will be a revolutionary friendship? "
Zhong Miao Yi choked. She felt that Su Zeyi was really pissed off.
But after thinking about it, since she was the one at fault, even if Su Zeyi did not bring her there, she should not have slipped out herself.
Thinking about this, the Zhong Miao Yi was no longer as confident.
When Ban Qiu saw that Zhou Ji had left, she quickly patted the Ah Jiu. After exchanging a few glances, the two of them left the room, closing the door behind them. Only the Zhong Miao Yi and Su Zeyi were left.
The Zhong Miao Yi didn't really like this kind of situation. Su Zeyi sat in front of her like a ticking time bomb.
She didn't want to touch the bomb, so she kept her head down and didn't speak.
Su Zeyi was waiting for her to admit his mistakes. After waiting for a long time, he only waited for a moment of silence. When he looked at Zhong Miao Yi again, he saw that she had twisted her embroidery handkerchief into a blur.
"You have nothing to say?" Su Zeyi could not help but ask. He was obviously the one who was angry, so how could he still try to coax her? How could there be such a logic!
Zhong Miao Yi quickly raised her head and looked at him. She rolled her eyes and said with a pitiful voice: "I'm tired after sitting in the carriage."
