Qin Yu comforted Lin Xi as he started to untie the cloth around her.
Lin Xi's hands quickly regained their freedom, she naturally hugged Qin Yu's neck, and suddenly muttered: "Mingyu."
"What did you say?" Qin Yu's hand that was holding onto the cloth suddenly stopped, and pushed Lin Xi away from her body once again.
Lin Xi looked at him strangely.
Qin Yu's expression quickly became cold, and even his eyes seemed to be filled with ice. He pinched Lin Xi's chin and asked again: "Whose name were you calling out just now? Which Mingyu? Qiao Mingyu? "
"I don't remember." The pain from her chin caused Lin Xi's brain to clear up for an instant, but she could not remember whose name she had unwittingly shouted just now.
But Qin Yu was not satisfied with the answer, he tightened his fingers and continued to ask: "What is your relationship with Qiao Mingyu?"
"You're hurting me!" Lin Xi cried out in pain as she tilted her head to bite on the tiger's mouth.
Lin Xi bit down hard, and when she finally loosened her teeth, half a circle of bloody bite marks was left on Qin Yu's palm.
Qin Yu let out a cold laugh, picked up the cloth that was just taken off, and tied Lin Xi's hands again.
Lin Xi's mind was sometimes clear, and sometimes chaotic. She looked at her hands that were tied up, and then giggled as she pounced towards Qin Yu: "You actually like to play like this huh? If you hug me, I'll let you tie me up. "
This time Qin Yu did not push Lin Xi away, he took the chance to hug Lin Xi and carried him into the bathroom. Taking large strides, he walked into the bathroom and threw him into the water tank.
Lin Xi exclaimed: "What are you doing? Why are you pouring cold water on me? "
"You freak, you're crazy! I will kill you! " Lin Xi struggled to climb out of the bathtub, but because she was tied up, she could not crawl out.
This time, Qin Yu didn't show any mercy towards the fairer sex. He stood at the bathroom door and watched coldly, and other than occasionally lifting Lin Xi's head from the bathtub to prevent her from drowning, he allowed his to pour cold water over most of the night.
Only after Lin Xi's medicine had completely dissipated and he had fainted in the bathtub, did Qin Yu move forward again to carry her back onto the bed.
Qin Yu carefully wiped her body dry, then called the reception and asked his to bring some medicine to treat his cold and fever, giving it to her carefully.
After being soaked in cold water for half the night, no matter how good his body was, he would probably get a fever later in the night.
Qin Yu tucked Lin Xi in, and then tenderly kissed the corner of her lips.
He just lost control.
Maybe Bai Nianxi did not call him "Mingyu", she had heard wrong.
Qin Yu leaned on the side of the bed, watching Lin Xi until the sun rose. Sensing that she was getting hot, Qin Yu was about to wake her up and go to the hospital, when he suddenly heard a series of hurried knocks on the door.
Then, Grandma's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Xiao Xi, are you inside? If you're already awake, open the door for Grandma. "
Grandma should be at the Qin family's ancestral house right now, why would she suddenly run over to the hotel?
Qin Yu got up and opened the door, but just as he reached the door, he heard another voice: "Grandmother, we have a room card anyways, why don't we just open the door and go in? It must be inside. I saw her with my own eyes last night in this room with a strange man. "
Qin Yu opened the door and coincidentally bumped into Li Muqing, who was about to use her room card to open the door.
"You, why are you inside?!" Seeing Qin Yu coming out from the door, Li Muqing was so shocked that the room card in her hand dropped.
Old Lady Qin, on the other hand, heaved a sigh of relief.
The Qin family and Li Family were old friends, so Li Muqing could be considered half her granddaughter.
It was still dark today when she suddenly received a call from Li Muqing. Li Muqing spoke hesitantly through the phone, she had seen Qin Yu's fiancee getting a room with another man at the ball yesterday.
Old Madem Qin had a very good impression of Bai Nianxi, so she naturally did not believe Li Muqing's words. However, Li Muqing's tone was very sure, and even said that she had evidence, so she pulled her over early in the morning to catch the traitor.
Old Madem Qin didn't want to believe it, but she was afraid that she had misjudged it, so she followed him.
Fortunately, the man who came out of the room was her grandson, causing her heart to sink back into her stomach.
Qin Yu turned to Old Madem Qin and asked: "Grandmother, why did you suddenly come over? Did something happen?"
Old Madem Qin smiled and said, "It's nothing. It's been a few days since I last saw you and Little Xi. I just happened to hear Mu Qing say that you guys are here.
On account of the relationship between the Qin and Li families, she purposely gave Li Muqing a way out.
But Li Muqing didn't appreciate it at all. "That's impossible! What about Li Huaian? Last night, I clearly saw him carrying Bai Nianxi in. "
As she spoke, she walked into the house and started searching for Li Huaian.
"Enough!" Qin Yu stopped her and said, "There is no Li Huai An here."
Li Muqing naturally knew why she brought her grandmother to the hotel so early in the morning.
If he didn't come last night, or if he didn't make it in time, when she opened the door this morning, she would have seen Bai Nianxi and Li Huaian hanging out together.
At that time, it would be the lightest, since he wanted to break the engagement with Bai Nianxi. Even more serious, if this matter were to spread out, Bai Nianxi would be left with a stain on her life's record.
Qin Yu interrogated her: "Taking a step back, since you saw Li Huai An take Bai Nianxi away yesterday, why didn't you tell me or my grandmother at that time, and instead tell me about it this morning? Since you were young, you have heard of Li Huai An's reputation. You let him bring Lin Xi away, don't you worry about what will happen? "
Li Muqing guiltily avoided his eyes: "At that time, the light in the surroundings was dim, I was afraid that I couldn't see it clearly, so I hesitated until this morning before telling Grandmother."
Qin Yu asked her again, "Since you're not sure if you saw clearly, then where did you get the confidence to bring your grandmother here to catch a traitor?"
Li Muqing stammered, unable to make sense of the situation.
Qin Yu did not know if Bai Nianxi being drugged had anything to do with him, but he did not like Li Muqing finding trouble with him.
He coldly glanced at Li Muqing and warned her: "You better not let me find out that this matter is related to you."
Under Qin Yu's continuous questioning, Li Muqing almost suspected that her scheme to frame Bai Nianxi had been discovered.
She was anxious and her heart was pounding, but she forced herself to remain calm as she met Qin Yu's gaze and said, "Although I had a misunderstanding with Nian Xi, you shouldn't think so viciously of me right? How could I have done this to her? "
"Do you dare to swear that my being drugged yesterday really has nothing to do with you?"
The door to the main bedroom in the suite opened, and Lin Xi slowly walked out.
When Li Muqing saw Lin Xi, her eyes twinkled for a moment. But then, he thought that even if Bai Nianxi knew that the medicinal pellet was her, she might not necessarily be able to find evidence.
Other than Li Huaian's mistake, she thought that her plan was flawless. Bai Nianxi would definitely not be able to figure out how she drugged him, and as long as she bit her to death, it would have nothing to do with her. In a situation with no proof, no one could do anything to her.
Thinking about Li Huaian, Li Muqing started to feel angry. If Li Huaian was not fine, the person being pointed at in the house should be Bai Nianxi!
She stared at Lin Xi and said: "Stop spouting nonsense!"
Lin Xi approached her and said: "Whether or not I'm spouting nonsense, you will know after finding the waiter who passed me the red wine at the royal ball yesterday."
Due to the habits she had developed in her previous life in the entertainment circle, Lin Xi was extremely cautious with her food. Last night at the party, she had eaten only red wine as a buffet, and the buffet was for everyone to eat, so it wasn't feasible to use medicine in it. The rest was the only glass of red wine she had drunk last night.
At that time, she had entered the party with Gao Quan, and there was a waiter holding a glass of red wine at the door. When he saw the two enter, he immediately went forward and handed her a glass of red wine.
When she realized that she had been tricked last night, she was still extremely confused, but to "thank" Qin Yu who had let her soak in the cold water bath for half the night, she slowly came to an understanding.
Lin Xi glared at Qin Yu. As she was still burning red, the corners of his eyes were red, giving his a sickly charm.
Qin Yu's heart was moved by her angry and resentful gaze. The scene where Lin Xi tried everything to stick to him last night had once again flooded into his mind.
He pressed the center of his brows, suppressing the indescribable irritation in his heart and returned his attention back to Li Muqing.
At this time, when Li Muqing mentioned the waiters, Li Muqing's expression immediately changed. However, she did not give up and continued to talk stubbornly, "The waiters at the royal ball were all arranged by VICI. What does that have to do with me?"
Old Madem Qin had not said a word the entire time, but after hearing this, he roughly understood what happened. Looking at Li Muqing's current guilty reaction, she could already believe that what Lin Xi said was true.
She shook her head and said, "Mu Qing, you have disappointed me so much."
Because of the relationship between the Qin and Li family, she had watched Li Muqing grow up. She had always liked this mischievous granddaughter of hers.
On the other side, Qin Yu had already started to call the manager of the hotel. He wanted him to find the recording of the party and find the waiter who passed the wine to Lin Xi at the entrance.
Li Muqing did not expect her perfect plan to be seen through so easily. Only then did she begin to fear him.
What she had done was a prank, but when it came down to it, it was a real crime.
She suddenly hugged the madame and wailed, "Grandmother, I know I was wrong, but I was just impulsive. Luckily, I didn't cause any irreparable consequences, right? Forgive me. "
The madame could not bear to see her cry so much. In the end, she was still a child of a family friend, and she had watched her grow up.
She then pushed Li Muqing away and said: "What's the use of begging me? "Who are you hurting? Why aren't you apologizing yet?"
Li Muqing's body stiffened, but after thinking about the consequences of causing such a ruckus, he forced himself to walk over to Lin Xi's side and apologize: "Xiao Xi, I'm sorry. I was jealous of your relationship with Qin Yu and impulsively made this prank on you.
With that, she turned her head towards Old Madem Qin with tears flowing down her face, "Grandmother, please help me persuade Xiao Xi so that she can forgive me."
Lin Xi had already noticed that the Old Madem Qin had the intention to settle this matter peacefully, thus before she could even open her mouth, she started crying as well: "Li Muqing, I will never forgive you again. I used to think of you as a friend, but you kept teasing me and laughing at me. You made me look bad in public. But these are only minor injuries, and I can forgive you. But look what you've done now?
"To you, this might just be a prank, but to me, if Qin Yu didn't rush over in time, I would have been raped by others. Perhaps, it would be more miserable, I would have directly died here. I know that I came from the countryside, and my life is not as valuable as yours, but before my grandfather died, I promised him that I would live well.
Since it was just a crying contest, let's see who could make the old mistress soften her heart.
Sure enough, when the old lady heard Lin Xi mention the dead Grandfather Bai, her expression suddenly changed. She hesitated and said to Lin Xi: "Grandmother knows that you're feeling wronged, so you can do whatever you want. I won't interfere with your decision."
Lin Xi once again looked at Qin Yu with teary eyes.
Qin Yu said: "You are my fiancee, and the Qin family is your backer. You don't have to worry about anything, just do what you want."
Lin Xi wiped her tears and said, "I want to call the police."
Li Muqing almost fainted when she heard it, she screamed excitedly: "You can't do this! "I'll go to jail. I'm going to die for the rest of my life!"
Seeing her excited expression, Qin Yu was afraid that she would impulsively injure Lin Xi, so he quietly hid Lin Xi behind him.
Lin Xi looked at the broad back in front of him, and could not help but snort lightly.
Don't think that just because she's been thrown into cold water for half the night that she'll forget about it.
She climbed over Qin Yu's shoulder and looked at Li Muqing's ugly expression and shouts, her heart surprisingly calm.
If Li Muqing could really go to jail, then she could be considered to have avenged that Bai Nianxi from before …
Just as she was thinking, Lin Xi suddenly sneezed, then blacked out and fell towards the ground.
Luckily she did not fall to the ground, and felt that she was hugged tightly by someone, Lin Xi was completely relieved and fainted.
