Xia Ziduan had just opened his mouth when Xia Zijun quickly turned his head and glared at him. He roared, "What are you thinking about?"
Then, he fiercely slammed the steering wheel. He gritted his teeth. He was so angry. He was so angry that this damn Kang Xiaoqiao actually poured dirty water on him. Now, even his own brother was going to question him.
"It can't be what? You'll believe whatever she says? Are you still my brother?"
After saying that, he started the car and stepped on the accelerator. Fortunately, Xia Ziduan grabbed the handrail. Otherwise, he would have been stuck on the windshield.
After he sat down, Xia Ziduan said with lingering fear, "Ahem, what are you doing? If you're not, then you're not. What are you in a hurry for?"
Xia Zijun ignored him and was extremely angry. Xia Ziduan sighed and said, "Zijun, you've been too stubborn. Be careful not to get yourself into trouble. It's better for you to stay out of Kang Xiaoqiao's matter."
When Xia Zijun heard that, he glared at him and said, "This woman's heart is gloomy and she's trying to sow discord. But for some reason, she actually coaxed Lu Yichen. All of you have been deceived by her."
"If I don't interfere, then there will be someone he'll regret."
When Xia Zijun saw this, he looked at Xia Zijun in a daze and said indifferently, "Do you think that you're smarter than Lu Yichen? Do you know more about women's hearts than Lu Yichen? Or are you more..."
"Zijun, you've crossed the line. That Kang Xiaoqiao is after all Lu Yichen's wife."
"If you want to talk about women's hearts, you're indeed much better than Lu Yichen. But when it comes to scheming and plotting, how do you think you're better than Lu Yichen? I think you're just worrying blindly."
When Xia Zijun heard this, his stomach turned into a basin of cold water that was poured over his heart. Xia Ziduan followed up with his words.
"Don't be too serious with women. You have done well in the past. Brother hopes that you will continue to do well in the future."
After saying this, he opened the door and got out of the car. At this time, he had unknowingly reached home. Meanwhile, Xia Zijun sat in the car in a daze.
He knew what his brother meant. Once he became curious about a woman, the consequences--
"Zijun, you have crossed the line. that Kang Xiaoqiao is after all Lu Yichen's wife."
"Zijun, you've crossed the line. Kang Xiaoqiao is Lu Yichen's wife after all."
...
These words echoed in Xia Zijun's mind over and over again. Slowly, a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
When Kang Xiaoqiao returned home, she followed Lu Yichen back to the room. Lu Yichen sat on the chair and stared blankly at Kang Xiaoqiao for a long time. Kang Xiaoqiao's hair stood on end when she saw him. Only then did she carefully say, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Lu Yichen said indifferently, "Why are you doing this?"
Kang Xiaoqiao knew what Lu Yichen meant the moment she heard it. She tilted her face and tidied up her clothes. Lu Yichen continued, "Answer me."
Kang Xiaoqiao threw her clothes aside, raised her chin and said, "That Xia Zijun is too annoying. He always wants to pry into my privacy. I don't like it. It's as simple as that."
Lu Yichen frowned when he heard that. After a long while, he said, "I understand. You rest well. We'll go back to the department tomorrow."
Kang Xiaoqiao immediately turned her head when she heard that. "So soon?"
However, at this moment, Lu Yichen had already turned around and left. Kang Xiaoqiao was so angry. This damn Xia Zijun was really her nemesis.
After Lu Yichen went downstairs, he saw Xia Ziduan waiting for him in the living room. After seeing him sit down, he smiled and said, "Yichen..."
Lu Yichen nodded and said, "Second cousin, I know."
Xia Ziduan was so embarrassed that he choked. He coughed and said, "Ahem, it's good that you know. Given Zijun's temper, ahem, don't think too much about it."
Lu Yichen nodded and turned around to leave.
At this moment, Xia Zijun's mood had mostly calmed down. After wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, he was about to get out of the car when he saw Lu Yichen standing in front of him with a gloomy face.
He immediately became angry and did not say anything nice. "What? You're here to interrogate me in a rush?"
After saying that, he got out of the car and closed the door with force. Then, he did not want to bother with Lu Yichen and turned to leave. However, Lu Yichen's voice came from behind him. "Are you looking for a place to have a drink?"
Not long after, they saw the figures of two people in a relatively luxurious restaurant. Although this restaurant was said to be luxurious, it was relatively speaking.
This was a state-run restaurant. In this big city, the provincial capital, it was the highest standard. The table was covered with a red and white checkered tablecloth. The two of them found a place with a good environment.
Not long after, the waiter had finished serving the dishes. Lu Yichen opened a bottle of wine and filled two cups.
Xia Zijun did not say a word. He silently watched him do all this. After pouring the wine, he drank it all in one gulp. Then, he put the cups down heavily.
"The weasel has no good intentions in paying a New Year's visit to the chicken. Tell me, what's the matter?"
Lu Yichen didn't get angry when he heard that. He slowly took a sip of wine and said indifferently, "Weasel and chicken? That's right, you are indeed like a big angry rooster now."
Xia Zijun's eyes widened and he was filled with anger. He poured himself another cup and drank it in one gulp. "Who is the reason why I'm so angry? Isn't it because of the new wife you married?"
"She has a glib tongue and is trying to sow discord. She must have done something shameful, she..."
Before he could finish, Lu Yichen said coldly, "What does this have to do with you?"
Xia Zijun's face turned red from being choked. Without waiting for him to speak, Lu Yichen continued, "You've loved to fight with me since you were young. You fight for everything, and you want to determine who is better. I know you too well."
"In the past, we were both young and impulsive. We only played around when we were young. But now that we've grown up, we're different."
When Xia Zijun heard this, he said angrily, "What's different?"
"Didn't you find me here today to protect her? I'm puzzled. What's so good about her? She's just good-looking, right? But she has no family background, no ability, and other than a beautiful face, she's always causing trouble."
"There are plenty of good-looking girls in this world. With your family background, looks, and manners, what kind of people do you have? Why do you have to be obsessed with such a rural girl?"
"What time is it now? With her around, she'll only distract you. She's also not a good-natured girl. This is simply looking for a burden and trouble for yourself. What do you have in mind?"
The corners of Lu Yichen's mouth curled up when he heard that. "A good-looking skin is the same. An interesting soul is one in ten thousand."
Xia Zijun shook the goosebumps on his body when he heard that and said, "You're finished, Lu Yichen. You're really numbing."
Lu Yichen's expression did not change as he said, "Don't interfere in her matters in the future. I have my own plans."
When Xia Zijun saw this, he snorted.
Lu Yichen did not care and continued to fill his glass of wine. "You're doing this for my own good. I know, but this is my life."
When Xia Zijun heard this, he instantly raised his eyes to look at Lu Yichen. When he saw that Lu Yichen was looking at him unusually calmly, he did not know why, but at this moment, Xia Zijun was actually a little embarrassed.
Then, he hurriedly picked up his glass and took a sip. Then, he said, "Do you think I care about you?"
"I just, I just feel..."
