Zhong Miao Yi believed that she understood Su Zeyi very well.
He also knew more about where his value lay.
Very soon, Su Zeyi would let her do the first thing. He had no place to vent the anger in his stomach, and he would definitely use some methods to make his heart feel a little better.
It was obvious that he was on the verge of losing his life, but the Zhong Miao Yi was still worried that Tang Yao would continue to anger Su Zeyi.
However, Tang Yao was the son of the Tang Clan's heir and his only bloodline. The empress dowager's daughter, Madam Qing Xiu, was most likely disturbed by Su Zeyi.
She let her imagination run wild, and when she slowly walked back to the courtyard, Xiao Yao was already frantic.
She had sent many people out to search, so as to not alarm Old Man Su and Yun Mengqi, and just as she was about to cry, she happened to see Zhong Miao Yi coming back with a dazed look on her face. His clothes had somehow been stained with so much dirt, and it was a complete mess.
What was even more eye-catching was the red mark on her neck. It was so shocking that it seemed to have been strangled by something.
Xiao Yao ran over to help her up, and wiped her neck with the embroidered handkerchief, saying, "Madam, what happened? What happened to his neck? What happened to the clothes? "How did it end up like this?"
Zhong Miao Yi didn't have the strength to tell her a story that was both a failure and a joke. She could only shake her head and don't even have the strength to fake a laugh.
Xiao Yao quickly helped the Zhong Miao Yi in and instructed the two of them to boil some water and bathe.
"Where did Madame go in the early morning?" Xiao Yao rummaged through the boxes to find medicine to wipe Zhong Miao Yi's neck, "How did this happen? What if it doesn't disappear? "
It was only a scratch, it would naturally be fine after two days, but Xiao Yao was very nervous, the Zhong Miao Yi did not have the mood to tell her not to mess with him, she could do whatever she wanted without saying a word.
Xiao Yao rubbed her hands together, and for some reason, she suddenly cried out loud, shocking Zhong Miao Yi, who then knelt down.
Zhong Miao Yi quickly reached out to pull her hand, "What are you doing?"
"Xiao Yao promised Aunt Yang that she would stay by Madam's side, but Xiao Yao is useless. She can't help Madam with her worries, and she can't even do anything for her. She can't even do anything if she's injured." "Xiao Yao knows that it's not easy for the Madam, but the Madam can't court death either. If you die, what about Xiao Yao, what about Aunt Yang?"
Zhong Miao Yi was stunned, this girl must have misunderstood him.
Zhong Miao Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry and pulled her again: "I don't want to die. I didn't even try to think about it that way back then, why would I want to die now?"
Although he said that, Xiao Yao was still skeptical. He had always thought that the Owner was strange, but coming back like this, if it wasn't for the rope being broken, what was it then?
But it was good that he had returned. No matter whether it was because he had temporarily understood the situation or if he did not want to die, after Xiao Yao had cried, she felt that the tension in her heart had slightly lessened.
She slowly stood up and quickly went outside to make tea for the Zhong Miao Yi.
There were not enough people in the courtyard as compared to Yun Mengqi, who had as many as they could get. The empress dowager had even bestowed a few batches, which was more than a little bigger than the actual princess she was.
The Zhong Miao Yi did not care too much about this, with more servants, she would not be able to escape. Right now, it was also good, at least she would not argue when she was free, and it was best for everyone to get along with each other.
Not long after the tea was served, the water for the bath was boiled properly. Xiao Yao helped the Zhong Miao Yi boil some water before taking out her dirty clothes to wash the servant girls.
Soaked in the steaming hot tub, Zhong Miao Yi felt her entire body gradually relax. She sank down bit by bit, and in the hazy mist that made people lose themselves, she really wanted to sleep for a moment and never get up again.
However, it was clear that Xiao Yao had learned her lesson. After taking out her clothes, she would return very quickly.
As expected, the moment she entered, she saw Zhong Miao Yi who wanted to drown her in a bathtub.
She quickly stretched out her hand to pull Zhong Miao Yi up, "Madam!"
Zhong Miao Yi felt a little helpless. If she could really die happily, that would be great, she was afraid that after she dies, Su Zeyi would even more so not let the Tang Family go.
As such, she couldn't die. She had to survive, and watch as Tang Yao did the same to her.
Xiao Yao still had a lingering fear in her heart, but Zhong Miao Yi tilted her head and said: "It's fine, I'm just a little tired."
After showering, Xiao Yao helped her comb her hair a little, saying that it would be good for her hair and scalp, and also help her sleep.
Zhong Miao Yi leaned on the cushion, feeling drowsy. Xiao Yao's technique was neither heavy nor hurried, it was just right. It was indeed a good way to hypnotize.
She hadn't been able to rest well these past few days, so she quickly lost consciousness.
didn't expect Su Zeyi to still come to her courtyard today. The moment she saw him after waking up, she even thought that he was here to strangle his to death.
After that, Su Zeyi sat down on the opposite seat, and the Zhong Miao Yi dispelled this absurd idea.
"Go out." He did not look up as he said this to Xiao Yao in a cold voice.
Su Zeyi didn't like to speak twice. Xiao Yao had already experienced it firsthand, so she took a glance at the Zhong Miao Yi and quickly went outside the door. At the same time, he also lightly closed the door.
The girl at the door asked curiously, "My lord, you don't look too good."
Xiao Yao frowned: "I will guard this place. Tell them not to come wandering around here if there's nothing else."
Su Zeyi sat inside for a while, lifting up the tea cup that Zhong Miao Yi did not drink, and then putting it down with a crisp sound.
Zhong Miao Yi stood up from the chair, and just as she was about to go and grab the teacup, Su Zeyi suddenly raised her eyes, and their gazes met.
He casually placed the teacup down and raised his hand to pinch Zhong Miao Yi's face. "Since you want to help me with something, then show your sincerity and use your actions to prove that your ability is worthy of being used as a bargaining chip."
"Yes, I won't let you down." She answered calmly.
"Are you prepared to use this ghastly appearance to help me?!" Zhong Miao Yi frowned in pain, she felt like her chin was going to be crushed, "Miaoyi, you are a playboy, you have to laugh, you have to laugh, no matter what, you have to laugh, you have to not let anyone know your true thoughts, I did not teach you?!"
