Chapter 76: Embarrassment

"If that's the case, from now on, there will be nothing else between you and me!" Li Xiuning looked at Kou Zhong fiercely, and then strode out of the backyard, leaving Kou Zhong alone in a daze. Or rather, he didn't believe what he had just said, and he said it himself...

So much so that he didn't know how he got back. After returning to the room, Xu Ziling called him three times in a row, but Kou Zhong didn't hear it. "Hey, are you still alive?" Xu Ziling shook Kou Zhong. How come he was fine when he went out, but after he came back, it was as if three of his seven souls were missing. Something must have happened!

Kou Zhong sat woodenly on a wooden chair, holding an empty cup to his mouth. It seemed like he wanted to drink water, but there was nothing in the cup. Then Kou Zhong didn't seem to care at all. He took a sip and put the cup back.

He walked past Xu Ziling and went straight to the bed, looking like he wanted to sleep.

Xu Ziling was worried about him staying here alone, and wanted to go out and meet Lu Miaozi later.

Now I have no choice but to stay here. I don't know what Kou Zhong will do later. After all, a broken heart is more important than anything else. I'll just get used to it slowly.

Over there, the spy I had placed at Shang Xiuxun came early in the morning to report that Li Xiuning had met Kou Zhong at noon today. Fang Lang probably knew that the relationship between the two was still somewhat ambiguous.

However, the two had not done anything out of the ordinary before, so I turned a blind eye and did not remind Kou Zhong not to meet with Li Xiuning alone, so as not to arouse Shang Xiuxun's suspicion.

However, the situation is different now. After all, they represent the Song family. How can they have too much contact with the people of the Li family? It's simply courting death.

In a hurry, Fang Lang went to their place to find Kou Zhong in person. Unexpectedly, he saw Kou Zhong had already gone to bed so early when he arrived. That was unreasonable.

Xu Ziling sighed helplessly in the room. How could he not know what Kou Zhong was thinking, but since the matter was a foregone conclusion, why think too much, it was a fact that could not be changed anyway.

"Brother, you're here." Fang Lang pushed the door open without even knocking. As expected, Kou Zhong looked a little depressed as he had imagined. Xu Ziling sat quietly beside him, doing nothing, but that was the best company. Kou Zhong didn't want to say anything to anyone at this moment.

"Well, come out with me." It seemed that he couldn't listen to anything he said now, so he could only talk to Xu Ziling. After all, they were brothers who grew up together, and they must know how everyone would react when something happened, right?

Xu Ziling immediately got up and followed Fang Lang out of the room. He closed the door gently, disturbing Kou Zhong. It was unknown whether Kou Zhong was asleep or not, but it was the first time Xu Ziling had seen him look so lost. He had always been in a trance, and it was so deep that Xu Ziling couldn't understand it.

The two came to the yard one after the other, and some servants in the mansion were cleaning the yard. Fang Lang looked around and immediately felt that this was not a place suitable for the two of them to talk. He jumped lightly and disappeared immediately. Xu Ziling immediately understood and followed him, but on the one hand, he was still a little worried that Kou Zhong would stay in the room alone, wondering if he would do something stupid. However, when he thought of Kou Zhong's heartless appearance on weekdays, he felt that he was not such an extreme person, so he was a little relieved.

"Don't worry, I have asked Yu Zhi to go and watch him, nothing will happen." After a while, Fang Lang saw a sparsely populated place, and it seemed that no one would pass by, so he stopped there.

Xu Ziling breathed a sigh of relief, and his elder brother was still thoughtful. However, a lot of things did happen during the time he came here. It seemed that many times it was because of his elder brother that they could retreat unscathed. I don't know whether it is good luck for them or bad luck for Fang Lang to meet them.

Since Shang Xiuxun's disturbance yesterday, it seems that everyone has changed a little bit, but it's hard to say what it is. It's just that it's definitely not Xu Ziling's illusion, but the real fact.

"What happened to Kou Zhong?" Fang Lang went straight to the point. He didn't want to waste time. Although Li Xiuning wouldn't have the face to see Shang Xiuxun in the short term, it didn't mean that they were safe. Even if it was, it was only temporary.

Sure enough, nothing could be hidden from the big brother's eyes. After Xu Ziling sighed secretly, he said, "Well, something did happen.

Yesterday, Kou Zhong told me that Li Xiuning asked him to meet at noon today, but I don't know what happened between the two of them. Kou Zhong seemed to have lost his soul when he came back." Xu Ziling told everything he knew. Indeed, he only knew these.

Fang Lang was silent for a while. Sure enough, he now suspected that this was Li Xiuning's delaying tactic.

The trap deliberately set up by taking advantage of Kou Zhong's feelings for her will surely disturb Kou Zhong's mind and make him lose interest in the struggle for supremacy. This woman is indeed not simple, and is definitely not as weak and vulnerable as she looks on the surface...

Xu Ziling has been waiting for Fang Lang's answer. He also wants to know what the two of them said to make Kou Zhong so uneasy. It must be something they said that shouldn't have been said.

However, these were all things that he had expected. He had known for a long time that there was absolutely no possibility between the two of them, but he was afraid that Kou Zhong would be sad and never dared to say it directly.

"It's okay. Zi Ling, please go back and persuade Kou Zhong not to forget the purpose of our trip because of this matter. You have to think

The way is to let him know that only by making himself stronger can others have no chance or reason to refuse, and he will naturally understand. "He also knows Kou Zhong's character. ..
