Chapter 242: Two hundred and forty-one, mischief Chapter 242: Two hundred and forty-one, mischief Liu Shanyue looked strangely at the two of them, “I don’t know.” Xiaoqi hadn’t had the chance to tell her before her husband dragged her away.
“If you’re worried, you can go to the front desk to ask,” Qin Yushen said as he used a fork to pick up a piece of sliced steak and brought it to Song Yan Ning’s lips.
“That sounds good, you guys eat, and I’ll go ask.” Liu Shanyue stood up and walked towards the restaurant exit. This kid was so good at charming girls, she had indeed underestimated him, but she still planned to remind him later that Xiao Ning was still young and that he should show some restraint so as not to scare her off.
“Let go, I can eat by myself,” Song Yan Ning said, flicking Qin Yushen’s hand away after Liu Shanyue had gone some distance. Actually, being held by his hand felt quite nice, but she needed to eat now, and couldn’t possibly use her left hand.
“I’ll feed you,” Qin Yushen said with a mischievous smile as he watched Song Yan Ning. He thought it was nice this way.
Song Yan Ning rolled her eyes speechlessly, picked up the knife and fork with her left hand, and started eating. She didn’t want to be fed by him in public, she wasn’t a helpless child.
Qin Yushen smiled indulgently, let go of Song Yan Ning’s hand, and gently tousled her shiny black hair.
Song Yan Ning turned towards Qin Yushen and made a funny face at him.
Qin Yushen couldn’t help but start laughing. His Xiao Ning was so cute, everything she did was cute.
Liu Shanyue found out Zhou Xiaoqi’s room number at the service desk and walked back to the restaurant, “I found Xiaoqi’s room number. I’m going to go up and take a look.”
“Aunt Qin, it’s very late now. Why don’t you wait until tomorrow to go find Aunt Zhou?” After learning the room number, Song Yan Ning had already scanned Liu Shanyue’s mentioned room with her “Divine Sense.” She was a bit worried to see things she shouldn’t, but luckily her Divine Sense quickly located Zhou Xiaoqi, who was currently sitting on the floor with messy hair, crying. Her face was full of bruises, clearly having been hit by someone recently.
Liu Shanyue checked the time and nodded. Since Xiaoqi lived with her husband, it really wouldn’t be convenient to go now.
Song Yan Ning and Qin Yushen exchanged a glance. Seeing Liu Shanyue so worried about Zhou Xiaoqi, it seemed their relationship was good. Now that they knew Zhou Xiaoqi was experiencing domestic violence, it was only natural that they should help.
Zhou Xiaoqi sat on the floor until she heard snoring from the bed, and then she cautiously stood up. She desperately wanted to escape from her current life, but Jason’s influence was extensive, and if she ran away, it would definitely bring trouble to her family.
The previous few times, it was only after her begging for a long time that Jason hadn’t laid a hand on her family. Her family always thought she had a good life in Y country, and she really didn’t want them to know about her current situation.
“Knock, knock, knock!” A soft knocking on the door sounded.
Zhou Xiaoqi snapped out of it, carefully glanced at Jason on the bed, and tiptoed to the door. Peering through the peephole, she saw no one outside.
After thinking for a moment, she decided to open the door anyway. Her life was already so hard, what was there to be afraid of? Even if it really was something unclean, it would still be better than the man inside.
Opening the door, Zhou Xiaoqi looked around but saw no one; however, there was a wooden box on the ground.
She picked up the wooden box, softly closed the door, and carefully sat down by the couch.
Cautiously glancing at Jason, Zhou Xiaoqi opened the wooden box. Inside, there was a letter, along with a porcelain bottle and a beaded bracelet.
Picking up the letter, she read: “The porcelain bottle contains a medicine that can heal your wounds, and if you wear the bracelet, he won’t be able to bully you anymore.”
“This can’t be someone playing a prank, right?” Zhou Xiaoqi said, slightly puzzled as she picked up the bracelet from the box to examine it. Finding the bracelet to be quite pretty, she slipped it onto her wrist.
