Chapter 364: Meeting Qin Jiaojiao Again
Su Bai immediately carried Wang Kangting out, not giving a single hoot about the youth dying in the bed.
Small shops covered Red Moon City’s entire street. There were even more of them as compared to a few years ago, and the variety of things available were so great that shoppers became confused.
Yun Huan carried Qin Yi and strolled around, stopping at every shop and asking patiently Qin Yi if there was anything she wanted.
Qin Yi was not interested in anything, only taking crystal and beast cores.
She was too poor and lacking in crystal and beast cores. At the same time, she was also taking care of a few insatiable fellows. Qin Yi felt hollowed out by them.
While strolling, they suddenly discovered many people ahead of them, as though something exciting was happening.
Qin Yi’s eyes remained indifferent, but she felt like taking a look. After all, gossip was something every girl liked.
Yun Huan pinched Qin Yi’s nose with tenderness in his peach blossom eyes, “Want to take a look?”
Without waiting for her reply, he carried her and took large steps to arrive at a corner. She turned and sighed inwardly after seeing the male and female leads of the gossip.
‘What a coincidence.’
It was Zheng Zhong and Qin Jiaojiao.
But when Qin YI saw Qin Jiaojiao, she was shocked. Qin Jiaojiao was so skinny, to the point of being sunken; her face had wrinkles and lines all over it and her usually delicate and fresh face was extremely dark. Her hair was disheveled, her lips were dry, and those near her could smell a rancid scent coming from her body.
If not for her features and Qin Yi having interacted with Qin Jiaojiao for so many years, she would not have recognized her.
But what was she doing here?
Qin Jiaojiao’s face was bleak as she grabbed Zheng Zhong by the hand and looked at him deeply, “Big brother Zheng Zhong, I’m Jiaojiao! Didn’t you say that you would come back and marry me in two years? Why wasn’t there any news for such a long time?”
Qin Jiaojiao intentionally sweetened her voice and looked at Zheng Zhong bashfully, but having not spoken for a long time, her voice was hoarse, and she sounded like a raven in the winter. It was extremely unbearable to listen to.
Zhen Zhong took a step away from her, the rancid smell that punched his nose almost making him vomit.
When he heard her voice, he took a second look and only replied in confusion when he saw the familiar brows, “Jiaojiao?”
Qin Jiaojiao became excited at knowing that Zheng Zhong did not forget about her. She remembered their love back then and his promise to wed her.
Qin Jiaojiao gave a small smile that revealed her black teeth.
“Yes, it’s me, Jiaojiao. Big brother Zheng Zhong, I knew that you would not forget me. You must definitely love me.”
The spectators around looked at Zheng Zhong strangely. The handsome young man had such a terrible taste; to be able to swallow this down deserved respect.
Everyone watched on in anticipation, causing Zheng Zhong to feel unnatural. He smiled at her but could not hide the disdain in his eyes.
“Jiaojiao, was there something you came to find me for?”
This was a clear signal that he was unwilling to accept reality. In truth, Zheng Zhong felt that he loved Qin Jiaojiao so much that he was even willing to marry her, but after finding out the truth five years ago, he realized that she was an illegitimate daughter. In fact, she was not fully blood related to Qin Mian.
Zheng Zhong was infuriated and had felt cheated. He was extremely angry at her and naturally unwilling to marry her.
