1689 I’ll Back You Up
The two men sat opposite each other. Neither of them spoke first. They just looked at each other quietly. When their eyes met, a trace of coldness surged.

After a long silence, the new patriarch suddenly smiled with a trace of coldness in his eyes. “As expected of you, Gu Zheng. You dare to come to my territory alone.”
Gu Zheng looked up and saw that the man was wearing a mask and hat. He sneered. “Since you called me over, why are you still in disguise?”
The next second, the new patriarch took off his hat and mask, revealing his true appearance.
Gu Zheng’s pupils constricted, and his thin lips parted slightly. “It’s indeed you, Meng Fan!”
This person was the doctor Xi Xi met in the Medical Association, Meng Fan. Gu Zheng had secretly investigated this man but found nothing. At that time, he knew that his background was not ordinary. No wonder he knew that Qiao Xi was in Huo Yuzhou’s hands. He had long planted a doctor by Huo Yuzhou’s side.
Meng Fan said casually, “To tell you the truth, I have a grudge against Xia Yunqiu. If you insist on helping Qiao Xi, we can only be enemies.”
Gu Zheng raised an eyebrow and sneered. He had many enemies, so it made no difference to have one more.
After leaving the building, Meng Fan’s assistant walked in. “Patriarch, are you letting Gu Zheng leave just like that? Why not…”
Why not kill him? As long as the patriarch wanted to attack, he could completely get rid of this powerful enemy!
“I guessed that he wouldn’t agree, but I still wanted to ask. It’s fine if he’s unwilling. Besides, if I don’t kill him now, I can return Eldest Miss Lu’s kindness back then.”
Meng Fan’s eyes suddenly turned cold. “I really don’t understand why a kind person like Eldest Miss Lu would be friends with someone like Xia Yunqiu.”
On the other hand, after Gu Zheng got into the car, he asked Song Shijing, “Do you still remember that I asked you to investigate a person called Meng Fan a few months ago?”
“Yes!”
“He’s the new patriarch of the Brook family!”
Song Shijing was dumbfounded. Who was Meng Fan? How did he go from a doctor to the patriarch of the Brook family?
In the Xia family’s villa.
Qiao Xi got out of the car and walked into the Xia family’s residence alone. The servants pretended not to see her.
She had snatched Xia Chunyu’s room. Xia Chunyu must be very angry, so she would want to establish her status in the household and lord over her. She wanted to let Qiao Xi know that she was just the daughter of the Xia family in name.
Qiao Xi had an indifferent expression. As soon as she entered, she heard a sharp voice. “These are all such lousy things! Throw them all out!”
The person who spoke was Xia Chunyu’s servant, Aunt Liu. She had a very high status in the Xia family. Qiao Xi watched helplessly as the things she had gotten Uncle Sheng to send over earlier were thrown out. Her eyes turned cold.
Qiao Xi said with a smile, “These are mine. As a servant, who allowed you to throw away your master’s things?”
Qiao Xi sneered. “Does that mean Xia Chunyu is unwilling to give up the room?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the servant’s slightly nervous voice came from outside. “Young Master, you’re back! Didn’t you say that you had something urgent to attend to in the company and that you won’t be coming back today?”
Xia Jingan ignored her and quickly walked in. He saw Qiao Xi sitting on the sofa with luggage beside her.
He walked over and said in a gentle tone, “Xi Xi, you just arrived in the capital today. Why haven’t you returned to your room to rest?”
Qiao Xi said aggrievedly, “The room on the first floor hasn’t been tidied up yet. I’ll wait in the living room for a while.”
Xia Jingan’s expression darkened. “Who told you to stay on the first floor? Your room is clearly on the second floor!”
“Aunt Liu said so.” Qiao Xi pointed at the person beside her. “She said that I’m not worthy of staying in such a good room, so she wants me to stay on the first floor with the servants.”
Xia Jingan’s expression was terrifyingly gloomy as he looked coldly at Aunt Liu. “I want Xi Xi to stay on the second floor. Do you dare to go against my wishes?”
Aunt Liu was so scared that her entire body trembled. She could not say a word.
Xia Jingan leaned closer and said softly, “Xi Xi, if you encounter any difficulties in the Xia family in the future, you can look for me. I’ll support you.”
He then instructed coldly, “Immediately send Eldest Miss’ luggage to the room on the second floor!”
Aunt Liu lowered her head and retorted, “Young Master, that room is occupied by Miss Chunyu. She has been staying there for so many years. It’s not appropriate for Miss Qiao to snatch her room the moment she arrives, right?”
“What are you arguing about?!”
Suddenly, a dignified voice came from upstairs. Yin Lianyi and Xia Chunyu walked down together.
Xia Jingan said, “Grandma, I’ve already instructed the servants to tidy up the room on the second floor for Xi Xi, but Aunt Liu actually went against my wishes and arranged for Xi Xi to stay on the first floor.”
