Chapter 422 He Feng pretends to be drunk
Ma Xin slowly walked up to He Feng and said softly, "You've drunk too much now. You can't drink any more. I'll make you some soup. This will make you feel better."
Before he finished speaking, He Feng suddenly reached out and grabbed Ma Xin's hand tightly. His eyes were a little blurry, and he didn't seem to be fully awake. However, unexpectedly, he mistook Ma Xin for Ran Qiuye, and murmured, "Qiuye, you're here."
Ma Xin stared at He Feng, and a feeling of sadness welled up in her heart. She knew that He Feng had deep feelings for Ran Qiuye, but seeing him lose his composure at this moment, her heart was filled with helplessness and heartache. However, Ma Xin soon realized that this might be a rare opportunity.
She took a deep breath and said softly, "He Feng, you are mistaken. I am Ma Xin." However, He Feng seemed not to hear her at all. His eyes were still on the illusory Ran Qiuye. He continued, "Qiuye, don't worry. Although I am no longer the director of the Public Security Bureau, I will definitely help you get revenge."
Seeing this, Ma Xin knew that any explanation would be futile, so she stopped insisting and looked at He Feng gently and said, "Okay, I'll go make some sobering soup for you first. You can rest here for a while." After that, she gently broke free from He Feng's hand, turned around and prepared to go to the kitchen to make soup.
He Feng fell asleep there like a child. Ma Xin simply helped him clean up, and then went to make the hangover soup with peace of mind.
However, just as Ma Xin walked to the kitchen door, there was a slight knock on the door. She was a little surprised and wondered who it could be at this late hour. Could it be that the neighbor had something wrong? With some doubts, Ma Xin walked quickly to the door and opened it.
The moment the door opened, Ma Xin was stunned, because the person standing at the door was He Yuzhu: "He Yuzhu, why are you here?"
He Yuzhu knew that Ma Xin had misunderstood him, so he gave the hangover soup in his hand to Ma Xin: "Expert Ma, I'm not afraid that my uncle's family doesn't have the ingredients to make hangover soup, so I made it for him. You can feed it to him."
Ma Xin's face was red, but when he thought about his mission, he could only agree: "Okay, you go back first, just leave this to me."
Qin Jingru hid aside, stamping her feet in anger. She cursed in her heart: "What kind of shit expert is this? How dare he snatch my man!" You know, He Feng is the one she has admired for a long time. How can she let others feed him? In this way, wouldn't she have no chance at all?
Just as Qin Jingru was about to rush over to ruin everything, He Yuzhu suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked her way. He Yuzhu asked in confusion: "Qin Jingru, what are you doing here? I have some hangover soup over there, it tastes pretty good, do you want to try it?"
Although Qin Jingru was very angry about He Yuzhu's appearance, she couldn't get angry. After all, now was not the time to argue with him. So, she suppressed her anger and replied unhappily, "Who wants to drink your hangover soup?"
However, He Yuzhu didn't seem to notice Qin Jingru's unhappiness. He invited her warmly, "Hey, don't be so polite. Come, come in and have a drink with me." As he said that, he took Qin Jingru's hand without saying anything and walked into the house.
Qin Jingru had no choice but to follow He Yuzhu into the house. As soon as she entered the house, she saw Ma Xin putting the hangover soup aside, obviously because He Feng was already drunk and unconscious and couldn't drink it.
When Ma Xin saw Qin Jingru come in, he greeted her with a smile, then said to He Yuzhu, "I've been taking care of He Feng here for a while. He's asleep now, and it's time for me to go back. I'll come see him again tomorrow morning." After that, Ma Xin stood up and said goodbye.
After Ma Xin left, He Feng actually slowly opened his eyes. His head still hurt a little, after all, he had drunk so much and his mind was not fully awake yet.
He Feng looked at the half-open door with a serious look, and a sense of uneasiness surged in his heart. He thought to himself that Ma Xin should have left.
The scene inside the house further confirmed this point - it was obviously searched thoroughly. This discovery gave He Feng the answer in his mind. He was now certain that Ma Xin was the traitor hiding inside.
However, he knew that now was not the best time to catch her. He needed to observe further to see who she was working for.
He Feng walked to the door with heavy steps, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This seemingly peaceful courtyard is now undercurrent. Not only is there Qin Huairu who has ulterior motives, but there is also a new Qin Jingru who should not be underestimated. They are not good people. He Feng didn't want to conflict with them at this time, so he carefully closed the door and turned back to his room.
He lay in bed, vowing to himself that he had plenty of time to expose these sinister people one by one. His determination was as firm as a rock.
Just as He Feng expected, as night fell, Qin Jingru quietly walked out of the courtyard.
A sly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she thought to herself: "Going to He Feng's house at this time is just the right time to take advantage of his carelessness and make the matter a done deal. Then, let's see how he can defend himself."
Qin Jingru tiptoed to the door of He Feng's house. She knew that Ma Xin had left, so she just closed the door.
In her opinion, this was a great opportunity, and she was determined to make good use of it and catch He Feng off guard. However, what she didn't know was that He Feng had already made preparations and was waiting for her to fall into his trap.
Qin Jingru tiptoed to the door of He Feng's house, feeling a little uneasy. She originally planned to push the door open, but was surprised to find that the door was locked.
This made Qin Jingru a little confused, not knowing what was going on. She hesitated for a moment, but finally did not dare to knock on the door. After all, He Yuzhu's house was next door, and if he got up and saw her going to He Feng's house, it would be difficult to explain.
Qin Jingru secretly groaned in her heart. She had originally thought that she would have a fait accompli with He Feng by then, and even if He Yuzhu asked, she could confidently say that she was here to take care of He Feng. But who would have thought that now she couldn't even get through the door, which made her plan completely impossible to implement.
Qin Jingru was unwilling to give up, so she quietly approached the crack in the door and looked inside. She saw that only He Feng was sleeping in the room, so who was the person who closed the door?
