Liu Ying was frozen in place.

I don't know what to say.

Because Liu Neng kept her locked in the room, and she couldn't even relieve herself.

In a moment of desperation, she put it in the bottle.

Who would have thought that Xu Hui would be so honest, grabbing a Sprite from the table and drinking it?

"Brother Hui, stop drinking!"

Liu Ying snatched it away.

Fortunately.

Xu Hui only took a small sip.

"I checked the date and it's not expired."

Xu Hui was puzzled.

Generally speaking, once the Sprite bottle is opened, even if the carbon dioxide dissipates and it's no longer carbonated, it should still be just sugar water.

It doesn't taste sweet at all, which is really strange.

Tsk tsk, the snake's head, and a little bit of bitterness!

"What's wrong?"

Xu Hui noticed that she seemed hesitant to speak.

"No...no...it's nothing!"

Liu Ying stammered.

As expected of Liu Neng's daughter, she even has the same stutter.

"Brother Hui, rinse your mouth!"

Liu Ying ran to the kitchen, brought back a thermos, and poured water into a bowl.

Why are you rinsing your mouth?

Xu Hui found it strange.

"Brother Hui, I won't hurt you."

"I don't want to drink it anymore, your water tastes a bit bitter."

Xu Hui shook his head.

"Brother Hui, please, just rinse your mouth, it won't hurt."

"What do you mean?"

Xu Hui became more and more confused as he listened.

"The Sprite you just drank was expired."

Liu Ying lied.

"There are still two months left on the shelf life."

"Won't it expire if I leave it open for several days?"

Liu Ying tried her best to persuade her.

"Okay, just drink some water to dilute it!"

Xu Hui nodded.

Yingzi would never harm herself.

Glug, glug...

Xu Hui drank the whole bowl of water.

Liu Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Yingzi, let me take you away!"

Xu Hui said.

"Where?"

"Go to the county town, you'll still be staying at Qiuge's place."

"Brother Hui, I want to build a processing plant in Ivory Mountain. My dad is such a worry, he keeps causing trouble!"

Liu Ying was unwilling to accept this.

She had investigated the market and didn't want to miss this opportunity, this was a hot trend.

"How about I act as your guarantor?"

Xu Hui said half-jokingly.

"No, we're not that close. The credit union said it would be best if it were family or relatives."

Liu Ying explained.

“Yingzi, if you are confident enough, give me a plan later. I will study it carefully and you can get a loan from the group.”

Xu Hui extended an olive branch.

"Really?"

Liu Ying's eyes lit up.

She quickly shook her head again.

She felt that Xu Hui had already helped her enough and couldn't help her any more.

Previously, she was just a rural girl who was recruited by Shenhui Group and went to other places for training to become a technician in the group's breeding industry.

On one occasion, she carelessly released dozens of venomous snakes belonging to the group, causing villagers to cause trouble for the group.

Last month, there was a rainstorm in Xiangyashan.

If Xu Hui hadn't saved her, she might have drowned.

Even recently, after she stopped going to the market, Xu Hui helped her find a shop in the county town's shopping mall.

Considering all the things that happened, she owes Xu Hui far too much.

"Yingzi, don't you understand? It's because I like you, and I'm willing to do anything for you. To use a trendy phrase, I'm a total simp; I'm happy to help you."

Xu Hui said.

Xu Hui's real purpose was not to sleep with her.

There are good simps and bad simps.

"Brother Hui, forget it. I'll figure out a way to deal with the garment factory myself!"

Liu Ying stubbornly shook her head.

"Alright, come find me again when you're out of ideas. Come on, I'll take you away from home first, let's hide out for a while!"

Xu Hui took her hand and prepared to walk out.

Liu Ying wanted to pull her hand away, but Xu Hui held it too tightly.

Like 507 pliers.

Just then, voices came from outside the gate.

It was Liu Neng and Li Xiulian.

"Oh no, why are your parents back so soon?"

Xu Hui was startled.

I spoke with Liu Neng on the phone this afternoon, and Li Xiulian told me that she had spent the whole afternoon weeding the cornfield and was unlikely to finish.

"Brother Hui, what should we do? If he sees this, my dad will be furious. He's been really annoyed with you lately!!"

Liu Ying hurriedly said.

He looked anxious and paced back and forth in the room.

"Liu Neng, you're so heartless to lock Yingzi in the room. What will she do if she needs to use the toilet?"

Li Xiulian's voice could be heard from outside the gate.

"Stop arguing, this...this...isn't this what you said, that you came back so early...so early...so early?"

Liu Neng stammered, "Besides, I told Yingzi that if things got really bad, we'd just grab whatever bottles and cans we could find in the house to tide us over. I have to teach her a lesson about the bad habits she picked up outside!"

"What?"

Xu Hui was taken aback.

Looking at the Sprite bottle on the table, there was still more than half a bottle left.

Then he looked at Liu Ying.

now.
