Chapter 25
He has finally grown up.

Pursing her lips, Zi Ling lowered her eyes, not planning to say anything, nor did she know what to say.After all, he was the only son of the Su family, and he had to rely on him for support in the future. No matter how cruel the reality was, he had to accept it.

The brother and sister had nothing to say all the way, but when they left the palace, they met Qi Xiao unexpectedly. It was obvious that he was waiting for them specially.Seeing him, Zi Ling unconsciously turned cold.

In the quiet night, the bright moonlight shines softly, and the high walls and red tiles of the imperial palace seem to be separated by a world, confining the darkness, revealing a unique majesty, which is inexplicably daunting.Against this background, Qi Xiao suddenly felt extremely strange looking at the oncoming person, and even carried some inexplicable hostility.

This perception made Qi Xiao a little puzzled. Apart from the incident with the dancer last time, he should have nothing to provoke Zi Ling. Why is her attitude so contemptuous, a little bit hostile, but more disgusting and disdainful.But even so, he still greeted him with a smile. "Brother Su, Ling'er, how are you doing recently?"

Seeing his familiar smiling face, a trace of struggle and pain flashed in Su Zicong's dark eyes, and finally he sank into a faint indifference.After so many years of acquaintance, the other party is plotting against his Su family step by step. He really can't bear this kind of friend who hides his knife in a smile.

After the incident with the dancer last time, Su's father came to talk to him, secretly investigated the various contacts between the two families in recent years, and cleaned up the relationship between the sects, and found that several seemingly loyal subordinates were members of the Qi family. Not only eating the Su family and using the Su family, but also accepting bribes in the name of the Su family, and secretly opening illegal transactions. Fortunately, the scale of development is not large now, and Father Su was cleaned up after spending a lot of thought, but if they haven't noticed it, In less than two years, when the matter is exposed, the Su family will surely perish!
Thinking of this, Su Zicong felt chills down his spine, his eyes when he looked at Qi Xiao became even colder, and there was a chill in his words. "Young Master Lao Qi is troublesome. Our Su family is naturally very good. If there is nothing wrong, please make way."

Hearing this, Qi Xiao was stunned, and his eyes widened in disbelief. This was the first time Su Zicong spoke to him like this since he was a child.The Su family is a family inherited from a scholarly family, and they are naturally gentle and refined. He really couldn't figure out why the other party suddenly became like this.

However, without waiting for his reaction, Su Zicong took Zi Ling past him directly, and he had so many years of affection, otherwise he would not let Qi Xiao go.

Zi Ling didn't speak from the beginning to the end, but when he walked past Qi Xiao's side, he curled his lips coldly. "Wait, this is just the beginning." Her voice was very small, without any threat, but Qi Xiao's heart trembled.

Turning around, the two had already gone far away, Qi Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he wanted to chase, but was suddenly blocked by someone.Looking up, he saw a man with a long sword, and not far behind him was the Fifth Prince Chaoyue in a silver and white gown.

Chaoyue, who was riding on horseback, just glanced at him indifferently from a distance.And the man next to him who stopped him withdrew his sword unhurriedly, "It's late at night, Mr. Qi should go back." The implication is, don't hurry up.

Qi Xiao's face changed, but after all, he just clenched his fists in his sleeve robe, then raised his hands to salute in the direction of Chaoyue, then turned and left silently.

No matter how he doesn't understand the other party's nosy, and no matter how the other party doesn't give him face, but the other party is the prince after all, someone he can't provoke!
