Chapter 429
At 6:30 in the evening, Zachary came to the hotel in advance to invite Xiao Ziqian to have dinner with him.
Soon, it was seven o'clock, but Xiao Ziqian still had no one to see him. Zachary looked in the direction of the door and felt a little uneasy.
After another 15 minutes, Xiao Ziqian still did not appear. Zachary was already prepared to get up and leave.
At this moment, a figure came quickly and said to Zachary, "I'm sorry, I'm late!" Then the figure sat opposite Zachary.
Zachary took a closer look and confirmed that the person who came was Xiao Ziqian. However, Xiao Ziqian's outfit at this moment was completely different from before.
She put on a pair of long-sleeved trousers and wrapped herself up tightly. She even wore a pair of huge sunglasses on her face, almost covering half of her face.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
"Have you ordered the dishes? What do you like to eat?" Xiao Ziqian picked up the menu and asked.
Zachary smiled and said, "There's no need. I've already ordered the dishes. Some of the main chefs in the store are cooking. Do you like it?"
Xiao Ziqian nodded and said, "The main course here isn't bad."
Soon, the dishes were served. Zachary and Xiao Ziqian began to eat, but Xiao Ziqian's words today seemed to be extraordinarily few. He almost ate all the time, and then he responded to Zachary from time to time. It seemed that he was totally different from yesterday's appearance.
Zachary felt that this meal was a bit strange. Looking at Xiao Ziqian, who was wearing sunglasses on the opposite side, Zachary couldn't help but laugh and said, "Reporter Xiao, you're wearing sunglasses while eating. Aren't you afraid that the food will be sent into your nose?"
Zachary's sudden words really scared Xiao Ziqian. As a result, the soup splashed on her face and her sunglasses.
Zachary handed over the tissue in a hurry. Xiao Ziqian took the tissue, took off the sunglasses and quickly wiped it off.
At this time, Zachary finally found something abnormal. Xiao Ziqian's face was red and swollen, and even his eyes were swollen.
Obviously, it was a sign of being beaten.
Suddenly, Zachary put down the bowl and chopsticks and asked, "Reporter Xiao, what happened to your face?"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Xiao Ziqian was shocked and quickly said. Then he quickly put on his sunglasses.
Zachary's face turned serious and he said, "Reporter Xiao, it's already so red and swollen. It's not all right. Tell me, did someone hit you? If you want, I can help you."
Xiao Ziqian quickly waved his hand and said, "No one hit me. There's no need. There's no need to trouble me."
Without hitting people, Zachary took out a pair of silver needles and asked, "Reporter Xiao, I am a traditional Chinese doctor. If you want, I can give you two needles and you will soon recover."
"Are you a traditional Chinese physician?" Xiao Ziqian was obviously shocked by Zachary's identity. Then he hesitated and said, "Forget it..."
Zachary smiled and said, "Reporter Xiao, do you want to go out wearing a pair of sunglasses? My medical skills are very special. I only need a few needles and I will recover soon, and it doesn't hurt at all." "Really?" Xiao Ziqian's heart skipped a beat.
"You can have a try if you don't believe me!" Zachary had already taken out the silver needle.
"Well, okay!" Xiao Ziqian took off his sunglasses.
Zachary grabbed the silver needle and walked over. Xiao Ziqian raised his head slightly, then gently leaned down and began to slowly prick him in the face of his cheek.
At this time, Zachary used the "Autumn Water Cold" of the nine needles in the Xuanmen Sect and used the silver needle to inject the Yin Qi between heaven and earth, neutralizing the red and swollen hot Qi.
With Zachary's circulation of needles, Xiao Ziqian could feel the cooling air slowly entering his cheeks. His cheeks, which had been burning hot before, were now much more comfortable.
Xiao Ziqian raised his head slightly and looked at the man in front of him. Feeling the male aura coming from the other party's face, Xiao Ziqian felt that he was a little intoxicated.
It was the man in front of him that was brave beyond compare. At the critical moment of his life, he was able to block bullets for him. And now, he was treating his injuries gently.
Looking at Zachary's well-defined face, Xiao Ziqian felt that there was a different kind of emotion in his body. It was slowly flowing, spreading, and growing.
At this time, in another corner of the hotel, a man in black was paying close attention to the situation here. When he saw Zachary getting up to treat Xiao Ziqian's acupuncture, he secretly took out his mobile phone and began to take pictures. Moreover, because of the angle where he was, the lens was basically blocked by Zachary. Therefore, at first glance, it was Zachary who leaned over and approached Xiao Ziqian. The two people's heads touched each other's heads, and their bodies were close, as if they were kissing and kissing.
After taking photos, the man in black quickly sent it to Han De.
On the other side of the dining table, Zachary took out the silver needle and said "all right" in a low voice. Then he got up and sat back.

Xiao Ziqian touched his own cheeks and felt that the swelling must have subsided. Moreover, his skin was cold and he felt very comfortable.
However, when she touched her white skin, she felt a little lost. In a trance, a thought came to her mind, "Why is Han De the one who married me, not the man like Zachary and Dr. Ching?" "Reporter Xiao, what are you thinking about!"
Zachary's voice pulled Xiao Ziqian back from the fantasy. Her face was hot and her face was flushed. She lowered her head and took a bite of the food.
Then, she suddenly thought of something and looked up at Zachary and said, "Dr. Ching, I'm sorry."
"Why did you suddenly say sorry?" Zachary said with a smile.
Xiao Ziqian said, "I promised to clarify in the newspaper that you would do what is righteous, but now, I may not be able to do it."
After falling out with the mother and son of the Han family last night, Xiao Ziqian's report had not yet been finished. Even if he finished writing, the mother and son of the Han family would put obstacles in the way. It was impossible for her news to be released.
Seeing Xiao Ziqian's guilty face, Zachary smiled and said, "It's okay. I don't care about it at all. I don't believe that someone can still put the blame on me if I never do anything I've done." "But..." Xiao Ziqian was still a bit worried.
"Well, let's stop talking about these things. Reporter Xiao, taste this dish. It should taste good." Zachary picked up a dish for Xiao Ziqian.
They didn't eat fast. About half an hour later, they were ready to pay the bill and leave.
At this time, a figure strode into the hotel and went straight to Zachary's table.
The figure came to Xiao Ziqian's side. Without saying a word, he gave Xiao Ziqian a hard slap.
This time, let alone Xiao Ziqian, even Zachary was stunned for a moment before reacting.
Xiao Ziqian clutched his cheek. He turned his head and looked over. When he saw the person's face, his expression instantly turned ugly. "Han De, why are you..."
"Why am I here? If I didn't come, I wouldn't have met you again, you b*tch, flirting with the adultererer," roared Han De. He then gave Xiao Ziqian another slap on the cheek.

This time, Zachary couldn't stand it anymore. With a serious look, he reached out his right hand and accurately grabbed Han De's wrist, saying, "This gentleman, it's not good to hit a woman!"
Han De glared at Zachary and shouted, "You adulterers are working together to deal with me!"
Hearing this, Zachary frowned and said, "Sir, I think you've misunderstood. I don't have any special relationship with reporter Xiao. I just want to express my gratitude for this dinner."
"Well said!" Han De snorted and turned on his phone. A photo popped up. It was from the man in black who had sent it to him just now.
Seeing the photo, Zachary couldn't help frowning. He didn't expect that it would cause such a misunderstanding. He quickly explained, "Sir, it's not what you think. I was just treating the wound on your face by acupuncture, and the picture is just an angle problem."
Xiao Ziqian hastily explained, "Han De, what he said is true. There's really nothing between us."
"You slut, you still don't admit to it?" Han De bellowed. He flung out his left hand and slapped Xiao Ziqian on the cheek.
When Zachary saw this, he snorted coldly. He used his right hand to push slightly, and Han De was pushed back a few steps and almost fell to the ground.
"Sir, I think you should calm down! Besides, it's also rude of you to hit a woman for no reason."
Han De finally managed to steady himself, and his eyes flashed with a hint of hatred. He shouted, "She's my fiancée, my woman. So what if I hit her?!"
Hearing this, Zachary said, "Sir, I don't care if Reporter Xiao is your fiancee or not. Even if you are married, you can't beat a woman like this."
"It's perfectly justified that I hit my woman." Han De roared, "And you, a traitor, dare to touch my woman. You are looking for death!" As he said this, Han De punched at Zachary.
"You're courting death!" Zachary snorted and directly hit Han De's fist with his palm.
Suddenly, a huge force surged out and pushed Han De away. He retreated seven or eight steps, and with a twist of his feet, he fell onto the ground with a loud thud. He was in a sorry state, causing the surrounding people to roar with laughter. Han De felt a sudden loss of face. He looked at Zachary with hatred, but when he saw Zachary's cold eyes, he immediately turned his eyes back and looked at Xiao Ziqian.
"Bitch, what are you looking at? Get your ass over here!" Han De roared at Xiao Ziqian.
Xiao Ziqian's face instantly turned deathly pale. He stood rooted to the spot and didn't move.
Seeing this, Han De roared again, "Bitch, don't you think about your father's life? Come over here."
Xiao Ziqian's entire body trembled upon hearing this. A look of despair flashed across his eyes as he walked with great difficulty to Han De's side and stretched out his hand to pull him up.
