The two hugged quietly for a while. Chu Rong knew that Qiao Zhiya was crying secretly, but he pretended not to know, and just hugged him to comfort him.

After Qiao Zhiya fell asleep, they still hugged for a long time. But then, Chu Rong released his hold and gently tucked him on the bed, giving him a forehead kiss before going to the study.
The old butler, who was anxiously guarding the outside, saw Chu Rong get out of his room. He stepped forward and cared and asked, “How is Young Master Qiao Zhiya, is he seriously ill?”
“He has been soothed.” Chu Rong replied, the tenderness on his face subsided. Then, he ordered, “Take out all the monitoring regarding the Imperial High Advisor. He should be living in the guest house around three months ago. Check it frame by frame. He has been in contact with Qiao Zhiya, and his problem right now is probably related to his doing.”
The old butler was surprised. He frowned as he turned quickly to leave in a hurry.
Half an hour later, the surveillance of the garden was cut off separately and sent to Chu Rong’s study.
“The High Advisor approached Young Master Qiao Zhiya when I was away.” The old butler blamed himself as he gave this recording. It was truly his carelessness. “I didn’t know what happened that day. That time, I went to get the snack in person and let Young Master Qiao Zhiya stay in the garden by himself. Now I remember that both you and Eldest Young Master have clearly explained that I can’t leave Young Master Qiao Zhiya and Third Young Master alone. I should’ve let the robot get the snacks.”
Chu Rong took the video and replied, “I don’t blame you. The power of that Imperial High Advisor is really wrong. If there’s someone to blame, it should be me. I let him live in our house without much thought. Well, you can go down, help me watch over Qiao now.”
The old butler nodded quickly and turned around.
After he left, Chu Rong opened the surveillance video.

The surveillance was recorded from the direction facing Qiao Zhiya. At the beginning of the recording, Qiao Zhiya was sitting on a wicker chair and immersed himself in front of the electronic book to draw something. Then the High Advisor in a white suit suddenly walked into the recording and sat very naturally. When he came across Qiao Zhiya, he moved the juice in his hand, and Qiao Zhiya, who was normally attentive, didn’t notice it.
Chu Rong frowned fiercely, his aura turned murderous.

Soon, Qiao Zhiya realized that someone was coming over, and when he looked up to see who it was, he immediately looked around, finding that nobody besides the Imperial High Advisor was in the vicinity. He looked cautious. Afterwards, the High Advisor, who was facing away from the camera, said something. He then stretched out his hand. Qiao Zhiya looked down at it, then looked up. Suddenly, his hand went to his own throat, as if he wanted to vomit out something.”
Then the High Advisor got up and tried to walk away, and Qiao Zhiya followed and tried to chase after him. Finally the two brushed past each other, and as they crossed paths, the older man raised his hand and pressed it against Qiao Zhiya’s shoulder, and the youth’s eyes were noticeably listless for a moment. Not long after that, he sat back on his chair, and his mood began to falter. He didn’t touch the electronic book on his desk again.
“Bam!”
Chu Rong smashed his desk in pure rage. His spiritual force leaked out with his fury, directly breaking some of the furniture in his room.
He quickly forced himself to calm down and called out to the old butler to ask for all the surveillance during that period of time. He personally began to review all the footage of the Imperial High Advisor and Qiao Zhiya during that time.
An hour later, his face sullenly paused a piece of surveillance footage taken in his study. The fury in his body intensified as he watched the figure of Qiao Zhiya covering his throat and collapsing on the couch.
After that, he called up all the surveillance cameras that had captured Qiao Zhiya at the Chu residence that day. He found that the youth had first gone to the infirmary to give himself a checkup after leaving the study, then looked for a medical assistant to look at the results of the checkups. Finally, he ran back to the study and waited for him, as if he wanted to tell him something.

But the Emperor suddenly woke up, and he and Chu Huai left without giving Qiao Zhiya a chance to speak. He had been discussing things with Chu Huai during the dinner, but he still hadn’t paid attention to the situation in Qiao Zhiya. As for the dinner… he remembered Qiao Zhiya, who was stuffed into the bathroom by himself and then fed with that “soothing” milk. His wrathful aura sank a little, replaced with a moody one.

After finding something wrong, Qiao Zhiya always wanted to tell him about it, but he didn’t pay attention to him and didn’t give the other party a chance. Then that night, he probed Qiao Zhiya’s memory, which caused Qiao Zhiya’s memory to be confused.
Exploring memory may not have serious side effects, but what about the power of that Imperial High Advisor?
He leaned back in his chair, took out his communicator, and called the Imperial High Advisor director. When the call was connected, he immediately asked, “What have you done to Qiao Zhiya?”
The High Advisor who was awakened from his sleep first looked at him in doubt, and then his pupils moved, as if suddenly remembering what he had done. He raised his hands and folded his coat, and smiled, “It seems to be you have found nothing of importance, just a few tricks of mine. Well, you put a spiritual lock on my son’s mind, so I have to pay back something to you to be fair. Don’t you agree?”
Chu Rong’s expression became deeper and he said, “I think our cooperation is over.”
“Marshal Chu, I advise you to think twice.” The High Advisor raised his hand and frowned, then smiled at him again. “I just gave Qiao some spiritual hints and disturbed him a little… his thoughts might be muddled, but it’s harmless otherwise. But what you gave my son would be fatal. Isn’t it a bit unfair? PPlus, don’t you want to figure out Qiao’s past, so you can find people who harmed him and get revenge in his stead? He has just participated in the Star Network Mecha Maker Competition and has built quite a reputation. Those who had eyes on him may have noticed him, and I can probably help him avoid some trouble. “
Chu Rong squinted his eyes and couldn’t hold back his murderous aura — this Imperial High Advisor really knew too much.
Feng felt shivers down his spine, but he tried to keep his expression flat and calm. He stared back and continued, “I know you are wondering how I know Qiao’s past, and even guess if I was the one who caught him. I can tell you clearly about this, I ’m not his enemy. You know, my power is a bit special, I can use it for a lot of things. Marshal Chu, as long as you remove the spiritual lock in my son’s brain, I can help with your troubles.”

Of course, he had to clean up the person who had hurt Qiao. But that doesn’t mean to let this person go easy.
Chu Rong’s thoughts ran in a circle, slowly concentrating his murderous aura, and he rapped his finger on the armrest of his chair. After a long time, he opened his mouth again and said coldly, “I can remove the spiritual lock in your son’s brain. However, there are several things I must figure out first.”

After hearing this declaration, Feng’s heartbeat calmed down a little. He closed his jacket again, and nodded back, “Okay, tell me.”
……
After talking for a long night, Chu Rong finally hung up the communication with satisfaction. Meanwhile, Feng sat motionlessly on the sofa. He suddenly had an epiphany, which made him shake his head with a bitter smile gracing his lips. “Little guy, how can you find such a man… “
Still trusting him so much, just like he trusted himself so much back then–
His mind floated, and after a long time, he finally snapped out of it and stood up with his coat.
‘This is just a matter of hiding it this time. I hope that little guy will have a better life in the future. Not like… back then, when I…’
Suddenly, Chu Rong’s face flashed in his mind. He stepped forward and walked forward again — ‘No, it won’t be the same. Chu Rong is not An Lunn. Until the dust settles, as long as the little guy doesn’t reveal his identity, then it will end differently.’

Early in the morning, when Qiao Zhiya woke up, he sat on the bed for a while, then raised his hand and held his forehead.
Strangely, he seemed to have felt a great amount of sadness last night. But what was it? Why didn’t he remember it?
The door suddenly opened, Chu Rong stepped in and saw him sitting on the bed, covering his forehead. He frowned, touched the youth’s forehead himself, then gave him a bit of his spiritual energy. “What’s wrong, are you uncomfortable?”
Qiao Zhiya looked back and looked up at him. Remembering that the two of them confessed to each other last night, his eyes brightened, and finally felt like the stone in his heart had been dropped. He happily stretched out their arms and hugged him, clinging close. He happily called: “Chu Rong, Chu Rong, Chu Rong…”
Seeing him like this, Chu Rong let his heart down, his expression softened, and he returned the hug. “What are you calling me to do? You want to sleep?”
“No.” Qiao Zhiya shook his head hard. There’s no more secrets between them.
His heart felt so light, as if it was a bubble floating up. He held onto his shoulder, his ears animatedly perking up. He suddenly gave him a bright smile and said, “I like you, I like you… and I will always like you.”
Chu Rong looked at him deeply and kissed the top of his head.

Qiao Zhiya closed his eyes shyly.
As their breaths started to entangle, Qiao Zhiya felt his magic pool suddenly warming up, as if something had completely disappeared. His eyelashes shook, and soon he was taken away by Chu Rong’s more intense kiss.
The two hugged quietly for a while. Chu Rong knew that Qiao Zhiya was crying secretly, but he pretended not to know, and just hugged him to comfort him.
