Qi Shaorong looked at Zhuang Hao who walked into the room and asked, “Are you eavesdropping again?”
Zhuang Hao nodded, smiled and said: “That’s right.”
Qi Shaorong looked at Zhuang Hao and thought to himself: Zhuang Hao seems to be getting more and more skilled at eavesdropping.
“What did you hear?” Qi Shaorong’s had a calm expression, but his eyes couldn’t help showing a bit of anticipation. He was obviously also very interested in what happened between Qi Heng and Zuo Yunfei.
“The two of them have deep conflicts.” Zhuang Hao said.
Qi Shaorong nodded: “Yeah, Ah-Heng said Zuo Yunfei hates him.”
Zhuang Hao shook his head and replied, “I don’t think Zuo Yunfei hates him. I think it’s better to say that Zuo Yunfei hates that Qi Heng doesn’t care about him than Zuo Yunfei hates him.”
Qi Shaorong: “……”
“In my opinion, this Young Master Zuo Yunfei is probably a masochist. Tsk tsk, this guy is really eccentric.” Zhuang Hao said.
Qi Shaorong rolled his eyes and said: “Don’t talk nonsense, be careful they will come to beat you up.”
Zhuang Hao: “……”
Qi Heng walked in, and Zhuang Hao and Qi Shaorong immediately stopped talking.
“Ah-Heng, aren’t you going out? You aren’t going out anymore?” Qi Shaorong asked.
Qi Heng closed his eyes and said impatiently, “There is a bastard who is blocking the door and I can’t get out.”
Qi Shaorong looked at Qi Heng and said, “What’s going on between you and Zuo Yunfei? From what I’ve seen, he seems to have an unforgettable old affection.”
Qi Heng glanced at Qi Shaorong and said angrily: “Young Master, what are you talking about? I don’t have any old affection for him.”
“What’s really going on between you and him?” Qi Shaorong asked.
“In order to treat him, I used a lot of extreme methods. Maybe because of this, he held a grudge against me. Later, when he recovered some strength, he deliberately concealed it from me and attacked me unexpectedly. I was careless so he was able to fight back.” Qi Heng said gloomily.
“Then, you guys got into bed?” Zhuang Hao asked.
Qi Heng nodded: “Yeah!”
“You’ve suffered a big loss! You did so much, but your good intentions are not rewarded.” Qi Shaorong fought against justice on Qi Heng’s behalf.
Zhuang Hao: “……” He didn’t see how good-natured Qi Heng was, but Zuo Yunfei did owe Qi Heng some favor.
“He didn’t get any better. In the end, his strength recovered a little, but it was good and bad and very unstable. After I knocked him unconscious, I snatched everything from his body and threw him on a barren mountain and just left.” Qi Heng said.

Qi Shaorong: “Ah! I remembered. You came back one time and seemed to have made a small fortune.”

If Zuo Yunfei’s experience were to spread, Zuo Yunfei would lose all his face.
“Ah-Heng, do you have any prejudice against Zuo Yunfei?” Qi Shaorong asked curiously. Although Qi Heng’s temperament is a little weird, he is not someone who randomly offends people!
“I despise him. I hate him when I see him.”
Qi Shaorong looked at Qi Heng and asked: “Because he is handsome, so you are jealous?”
Qi Heng said displeasedly: “Young Master, what are you thinking? I just hate the Zuo family. They are all lustful people and the whole family is rotten.”
Qi Shaorong: “……” So, someone in the Zuo family offended Qi Heng, and Zuo Yunfei had to take the blame for those individuals?
Qi Heng looked at Qi Shaorong and asked, “Young Master, if there’s nothing else, can I leave first?”
Qi Shaorong nodded: “Of course.”
Zhuang Hao tilted his head and looked at Qi Shaorong with bright eyes.
Qi Shaorong glanced at Zhuang Hao and asked: “What’s wrong with you! Why are you looking at me like this?”
Zhuang Hao shook his head and said: “It’s nothing. I was just wondering if you also held prejudice against me when you arrived in the Imperial Capital at the beginning of the year because I was handsome.”
Qi Shaorong: “……”
…………
After Jiang Lin and others came out of Qi Heng’s place, they passed the news back to the Jiang family and quickly received a reply from the Jiang family.
“Brother, what did the family say?” Jiang Qinxin asked.
Jiang He frowned and said: “The results of the family investigation show that the family did expel a man named Jiang Jin from the family ten years ago. That man also had a younger brother named Jiang Heng.
“Qi Heng, Jiang Heng? Could it be that Qi Heng used his younger brother’s name? Why?” Jiang Qinxin asked in confusion.
Jiang Lin took a deep breath and said: “Because his brother has passed away, and the reason Jiang Jin was kicked out of the house was because his brother was sick so he stole things to treat his brother’s illness.
Jiang Qinxin breathed a sigh of relief and said: “Although the circumstances are excusable, stealing is stealing.”
Jiang Lin shook his head and said: “The matter is not that simple. The things he stole were all left by his father. Originally, when his father died, he and his younger brother had the right to inherit them. However, his uncle interfered, so everything belonged to his uncle.”
Jiang Qinxin asked, “Who is his uncle?”
“Jiang Xingdong.”
Jiang Qinxin frowned, “It’s him!”
Jiang Qinxin doesn’t like Jiang Xingdong very much. Jiang Xingdong is not very powerful, but he is a very good opportunist. He likes to select beautiful orphan girls, take them in as his goddaughter, and find someone to train them into those who are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, then send them to big shots.
Although Jiang Xingdong’s methods are a bit unsophisticated, he managed to get along with a few big shots and he did quite well.
“If Qi Heng is really Jiang Jin, then his feud with our Jiang family will probably be a bit big,” Jiang Lin said. The result of his investigation was that Jiang Jin later lived on the streets and was trafficked by human traffickers. He changed hands several times and suffered a lot.
“Even if he is Jiang Jin, the person he hates is still his uncle, who has nothing to do with our Jiang family.” Jiang Qinxin said.
Jiang He sighed, “I hope Qi Heng thinks so too.”
Jiang Lin looked at Jiang He’s solemn expression and had a bad feeling in his heart.
…………
Zuo Yunfei didn’t block the door waiting for Qi Heng all the time. Qi Heng took advantage of Zuo Yunfei’s time to leave and slipped out.
Qi Heng couldn’t help but feel a little irritable as he walked on the street.
Qi Heng felt that he was acting just like a thief, even though he had done nothing wrong.
Qi Heng walked into the trading house and purchased a batch of magic scrolls.
Qi Heng’s strength is improving rapidly, so the level of magic scrolls required is getting higher and higher.
High-level magic scrolls were not easy to purchase. Everywhere Qi Heng went, he would have to go back to large trading houses to purchase them.
Because princes from all over the world gathered in Yun Country, magic scrolls suddenly became a popular commodity. Although the demand exceeded supply, as long as they were willing to pay a high price, they could always be bought.
“Why did you buy so many magic scrolls?” Zuo Yunfei appeared behind Qi Heng and asked.
Qi Heng looked at Zuo Yunfei and asked, “Can’t you stay away from me?”
Zuo Yunfei said without hesitation: “No.”
“Young Master Zuo, don’t you think it’s shameful for you to be like this now?”
Zuo Yunfei sneered: “Shame, in your eyes, do I still have shame? In your eyes, aren’t I just a pitiful creature who is going to die anyway, so it doesn’t matter how you torture me? You didn’t forget how you treated me back then, right, and what I said, have you heard it?”
Qi Heng looked at Zuo Yunfei and said: “Young Master Zuo, your illness was incurable! I did that for your own good.”
“Yes! Of course I know you are doing it for my own good, not just to see how I can handle before I die. So, for so many years, I have been grateful to you and want to repay you with all my heart.” Zuo Yunfei said ambigously.
Qi Heng turned away and said, “I don’t need you to repay me.”
Zuo Yunfei smiled and said: “You don’t have to be so hasty to answer me. I heard that the Fourth Prince of Yuan Country selected you as the last person to be the bodyguard to enter the Lade Mountains. Is it true?”
Qi Heng looked at Zuo Yunfei and asked, “How do you know?”
“Sure enough, it’s you. Go and reject him.” Zuo Yunfei said.
“Since I have agreed, I will not refuse at will.” Qi Heng said.
“When did you become so virtuous and keep your word?” Zuo Yunfei asked disdainfully.
Qi Heng squinted his eyes and said: “What kind of character I am has nothing to do with you. Or, Young Master Zuo, you are so innocent that you fell in love with me after having done it once. Speaking of which, it has been almost three years since that happened. In the past three years, Young Master Zuo, you haven’t touched anyone else, right?”
“My relationship history is very rich, you don’t need to worry about it.” Zuo Yunfei said coldly.
Qi Heng breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s the best. Sorry, I have to go.”
Zuo Yunfei took Qi Heng’s hand, pulled Qi Heng aside, and said: “You don’t know, Zhuang Hao has offended too many people, so the remaining countries have formed an alliance and want to kill Zhuang Hao in the secret realm.”
Qi Heng looked at Zuo Yunfei and asked, “Where did you get the news?”
“Don’t worry about where I got the news. If Zhuang Hao is really as powerful as the legend says, I don’t think that group of rabble-rousers can do anything to him. However, they will probably try to attack separately, then among the four of you, those with poor strength may be defeated first.” Zuo Yunfei said.
Qi Heng looked at Zuo Yunfei and asked, “Do you think I will be the first to be defeated?”
“How could it be? You will always be better than that fourth prince.” Zuo Yunfei said.
“Are you worried about me?” Qi Heng tilted his head and asked.
“For so many years, I have been thinking about repaying you. I finally met you, I don’t want you to die like this.” Zuo Yunfei said.
Qi Heng looked at Zuo Yunfei and said: “Instead of worrying about me, it’s better to worry about yourself. Although you were lucky enough back then, you will not always be so lucky.”
“If I die, will you be satisfied?” Zuo Yunfei asked with a solemn face.
Qi Heng looked at Zuo Yunfei and smiled: “I have nothing to do with you. Whether you die or not has nothing to do with me.”
Zuo Yunfei smiled coldly and said: “Right! I almost forgot that you are ruthless and heartless. No matter what others do, it will not affect your mood.”
