Zhou Ji was furious in his heart. He knew that Yun Mengqi was not that smart, and was even a little stupid, but he never thought that she had already been deceived by him to such an extent.
Love makes people stupid and numb, so it is not an empty word.
She was only crying, and her entire being was filled with a feeling of being wronged. She just couldn't understand how that pitiful and pitiful Zhong Miao Yi, the Zhong Miao Yi that she could easily defeat by her feet, could possibly have such a day.
No one could give her an answer. Even if they could, it was not something she could accept or admit to.
Yun Mengqi's conceit and unwillingness would eventually cause her death.
"Do you know what you're doing?" "If you marry Su Zeyi, you will know what kind of person he is. If he gives power to the Zhong Miao Yi, you can only obey him, and if you go out of your way to provoke and torment him, do you think that Su Zeyi will not know when the situation gets out of hand?!"
Yun Mengqi's face did not look good, her chest was heaving up and down, she was obviously gasping for breath, and she suddenly hated Zhou Ji speaking to her in such a tone: "What do you know? How long have you been back in the capital?! You don't know anything! "In the past."
"Before?" Zhou Ji laughed coldly, feeling that Yun Mengqi was really stupid. "You know, that's all in the past."
How it used to be was no longer important.
If she wanted to be neither eliminated nor submerged, then she absolutely could not indulge in the illusions of the past. What she needed to see clearly was the present and the future.
Yun Mengqi was stunned, to be honest, Zhou Ji was not just passing by.
Not long after he returned to the capital, Yun Mengqi said that he did not understand anything related to her and the Zhong Miao Yi.
After Zhou Ji finished speaking, he let out a long sigh. He actually didn't want to teach Yun Mengqi a lesson like this either, since no matter what she did, it wouldn't have anything to do with him.
But it was still related to the empress dowager's face, so he really couldn't bear to see it.
No matter how much she liked Su Zeyi, no matter how unbalanced her heart was, she shouldn't use this kind of method to vent it out.
The most important thing was that the Zhong Miao Yi was still pregnant. If something were to happen to the Zhong Miao Yi today, did she think that she would still be able to act so recklessly?
Zhou Ji did not want to tell her anything, so he was stopped by Yun Mengqi when he turned to leave. "Zhou Ji, what are you doing back here?"
Zhou Ji leaned to the side, his eyes hazy with the light. There was a rare moment of silence.
Yun Mengqi also seemed to have sensed that something was amiss, but she couldn't think of too much, nor could she have expected to go so deep.
"On the orders of the empress dowager." Zhou Ji answered without thinking.
Yun Mengqi watched as Zhou Ji walked far away. She knew that things wouldn't be that simple for Zhou Ji to say such words to a child.
Back then, the empress dowager was afraid of the emperor's fear of the Zhou family's influence, so she took the initiative to ask the Zhou family to move out of the capital.
In all these years, she had never seen the Zhou family's direct line of descent become an official in the imperial court. However, it wasn't as if she didn't know how the Zhou family's influence secretly permeated into the imperial court.
However, compared to the Su Clan, the Zhou Clan was not worth mentioning.
Zhou Ji's return was a signal, although on the surface, he had come back to help the Emperor control Su Zeyi's power.
But in truth, everyone knew that Su Zeyi's reputation was just like a cup of water in a fire, how could Zhou Ji easily shake him?
Su Zeyi was angry at Zhou Ji, and it was definitely not because of that. Zhou Ji seemed to have that kind of ability, to make Su Zeyi, who was indifferent to him, angry at him, it must be a skill.
But if that was all Zhou Ji had, how could the Empress Dowager value him so much?
No one, she asked herself, knew Her Majesty better than she did. In the ten years she had been at her side, she had long since understood her.
Zhou Ji did not return to his room after leaving Yun Mengqi. Instead, he turned a corner and went back into the courtyard of Zhong Miao Yi.
When Ah Jiu saw Zhou Ji return, he frowned slightly. It was obvious that he had not recovered from the earlier incident, and did not have a good impression of Zhou Ji.
But Ah Jiu quickly adjusted himself and went forward to pay respects to Zhou Ji, "Lord Zhou is blessed."
Zhou Ji nodded his head, his eyes never leaving Zhong Miao Yi's room. After walking a few steps, he was stopped by Ah Jiu: "My wife is not feeling well, she has already rested. If Lord Zhou has anything to say, he can speak about it tomorrow."
Rest?
Zhou Ji would never believe such nonsense. He raised his eyebrows, obviously not intending to leave at all, and instead found a place for himself to sit down. It just so happens that I don't have anything to do, so I'll wait here. "
Ah Jiu was stunned, how could there be such a shameless person? Was her intention so obscure? Did he think he was courting him?
However, Zhou Ji refused to leave. It was true that he couldn't disturb the Zhong Miao Yi sitting in his courtyard. She had no reason to kick him out, so she could only serve him a cup of tea unwillingly.
After Ah Jiu left, Zhou Ji finally stopped worrying about it. He didn't know what was going on in Zhong Miao Yi's mind.
She definitely hated Yun Mengqi. If she wanted to pursue today's matter, with her current status, it would be impossible for him to bring Yun Mengqi away.
However, it was clear that the Zhong Miao Yi did not have any intentions of pursuing the matter. Zhou Ji felt that he could no longer understand the Zhong Miao Yi.
He also realised that he was actually paying more attention to the Zhong Miao Yi. She was clearly a lucky woman with a beautiful leather bag.
Even if this kind of woman was interesting, even if she was smart, even if she was attractive, Zhou Ji never thought that he would start to care about Su Zeyi's woman.
When he knew that Yun Mengqi was here messing around, he could have ignored him, but he had come.
He was even willing to wait here, even if she didn't want to see him.
Once he sat down, it was Ban Qiu's turn.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Zhou Ji, who had a helpless look on his face. Then, he raised his head to look at Zhong Miao Yi's tightly shut door, and frowned slightly. "What are you doing here?"
Zhou Ji let out a deep sigh. "Has that person in the room always been such a patient person?"
Ban Qiu didn't understand Zhou Ji's meaning at first, but he quickly understood that Zhou Ji was referring to the Zhong Miao Yi.
Ban Qiu slightly raised her brows. "You have been waiting here for a long time? What are you waiting for? "
