After a few steps, the smile on Xia Yumoโs face gradually disappeared. ๐ณ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐.๐ฐ๐ ๐ฆ
It seems that Qi Miao really knew about the existence of the Zhou family members, and even, she might have established contact with them long ago.
This time, Qi Miao was genuinely frightened by Xia Yumoโs words.
Even a while after Xia Yumo had left, her face remained pale.
"Miaomiao? Miaomiao?"
Qi Ming saw that Qi Miaoโs face looked wrong, and he was worried, but he didnโt harbor much suspicion towards her.
It took several calls for Qi Miao to snap out of her trance. When she looked up at Qi Mingโs concerned gaze, she suppressed her fear and smiled reluctantly, "Second Brother."
"What happened to you just now? Who is the Zhou family member that Xia Yumo mentioned?"
Qi Miao was shocked by Xia Yumoโs words, and at this moment, when she heard Qi Ming mentioning "Zhou family," her heart couldnโt help but tremble.
"I donโt know who sheโs talking about."
She wasnโt in the mood to explain too much to Qi Ming, and simply said:
"Second Brother, I suddenly feel unwell. I will go upstairs first."
Qi Ming saw that her face did look unusually terrible, and thought it was because she had been frightened by Qi Baiyanโs temper earlier. He didnโt think too much about it and said:
"Alright, Iโll accompany you to rest in your room."
Qi Miao nodded and didnโt refuse. Right now, her mind was filled with thoughts about Xia Yumoโs mention of the Zhou family members.
How in the world did Xia Yumo know about the existence of the Zhou family?
If she knew, does it mean Qi Xiao and Gu Junhang also knew?
Had they set their sights on the Zhou family?
No way, if they knew, they would surely have captured the Zhou family members and questioned her by now. Why hadnโt they taken any action yet, and even allowed her to enter the house?
But if they didnโt know, how did Xia Yumo find out?
Qi Miaoโs mind was a mess, and she had no interest in paying attention to Qi Ming.
But she was well aware that Qi Ming was the only one who could protect her now, and she couldnโt let him down.
"Miaomiao, your face looks terrible. Do you feel unwell somewhere? Iโll ask Grandpa Chen to take a look."
"No need."
Qi Miao shook her head. At the moment, she had to reduce her presence.
Further fussing would only make the Qi family members dislike her even more.
"Second Brother, Iโm okay. Maybe itโs just low blood sugar from not having breakfast."
"Iโll have the servant bring you breakfast."
Qi Ming was about to pick up the bedside phone to call the internal line, but Qi Miao stopped him.
"Second Brother, let me lie down for a while and go get it myself. Thereโs no need to trouble the servants."
Hearing Qi Miaoโs words, full of unresentment and compromise, Qi Ming felt distressed and sad.
He thought she was trying not to make an issue out of it and did not even dare to trouble the servants because she wanted to avoid angering the family members.
Though being the main child of the family, her life under someone elseโs roof was worse than that of a servant.
Qi Ming felt sad and angry at the same time.
Even favoritism shouldnโt be taken to such an extreme.
Wasnโt she even allowed to order the servants around?
Qi Ming swallowed his anger and said:
"Iโll go downstairs and bring it up for you."
Qi Miao did not stop him this time, letting him go.
Apart from lowering her presence, she also wanted to evoke Qi Mingโs sympathy, care, and resentment towards the Qi family members.
Only in this way would Qi Ming stand by her side once the truth was exposed.
After all, she had no say in the matter when the Zhou family members switched the child. When the time came, it would be the Zhou family members who would pay the price, and she would have nothing to do with it.
