Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 63 The Four Major Factions Approach Again

Ziqiao covered his face in anguish, looking ashamed to face the elders of Jiangdong.

He never imagined that even though he was all wrapped up so badly that his aunt wouldn't recognize him, he would be besieged by the four major factions just because he exposed his buttocks.

How come Xiaoxue has such a good memory?

It's a pity that Lu Ziqiao's illustrious reputation was ruined by his own actions.

Wait a minute, it seems he's already infamous since last night?

That's alright then. How bad can it get?

Once the media frenzy subsides in three months, I, Lü Ziqiao, will still be able to ride my dragon and gallop freely as before.

Guan Gu asked curiously, "Zi Qiao, what's that Garfield on your butt...?"

"You need to talk to my lawyer about this."

"But where did you get a lawyer to represent you?"

"So there's nothing to talk about!" Ziqiao said, then sneezed several more times.

Seeing his miserable state, no one dared to make fun of him further.

It wasn't that I was worried he'd cough up something bad, but rather that he might spit on everyone's faces.

"Alright, alright, everyone stop laughing. Is it really that funny? Be serious." Zeng Xiaoxian tried to appear serious.

"Look, look at Teacher Zeng!" Ziqiao gave Zeng Xiaoxian a thumbs up.

"Teacher Zeng is the only reliable one. Look at you guys making such a fuss."

"That's right."

Zeng Xiaoxian smugly straightened his tie, trying to project an image of a reliable, mature man. However, the next sentence he uttered instantly broke Ziqiao's defenses.

"Hey, Garfield..."

Ziqiao's eyes widened instantly, becoming bigger than copper bells.

"Hahahaha..."

The group of people who were trying to hold back their laughter couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Damn, I meant to say Ziqiao, but for some reason it came out as Garfield."

"But, but... the Garfield on the butt is really funny." Curry Sauce was almost laughing so hard she couldn't breathe.

Ziqiao's expression changed: "Enough! If any of you mention Garfield again, I'll get angry!"

"Alright, alright, let's all stop mentioning it."

After calming down, Zeng Xiaoxian asked the question he had been wanting to ask all along: "Since you were surrounded by the four major sects, how did you manage to escape?"

When this was mentioned, Ziqiao finally showed some of his usual carefree demeanor.

He patted his chest lightly, stroked his non-existent long beard, and said as if Zhuge Liang were alive: "The four major sects are coming with great force and momentum, and cannot be defeated by force. But fortunately, I am fearless in the face of danger and have great wisdom and resourcefulness."

"I could tell at a glance that they were not of one mind and each had their own agenda, so I used a little trick to make them kill each other."

"Ha ha ha ha."

The three of them gave up on finding answers from Zi Qiao, who couldn't speak human language, and all turned their attention to Mei Jia.

"Don't listen to him. He's calm and resourceful in the face of danger. His legs were so weak from fear that his mother had to support him."

Meijia never misses an opportunity to sabotage Lu Ziqiao.

"When we heard Xiaoxue call out the name Lü Xiaobu, we knew something was wrong. Ziqiao didn't even have time to get an injection; he just pulled up his pants and ran."

"But there were just too many of them, and in the end we were surrounded by them near the bar."

"The leaders of the four factions had already reached an agreement to let the radical faction and the pineapple faction teach him a lesson and vent their anger first."

"Leave him an outlet for his anger, and let the magnanimous one ask his questions and leave."

"Finally, let the apple pie people fight over this rotten egg and sweet potato themselves."

"Isn't this great? We've asked what we needed to ask, and vented our anger," Curry Sauce said, puzzled. "So, what exactly went wrong?"

There was a hint of regret in Curry Sauce's tone.

It seems such a shame we didn't get to see that scumbag Ziqiao die from a woodcutter's knife.

"What else could be wrong?" Meijia said disdainfully. "It's that those stupid women from Apple Pie were easily swayed by his sweet talk and confessions."

"They stood firmly in the middle, preventing the radicals and pineapple-loving people from harming him."

"The radical women already disliked the Apple Pie idiots, not to mention the Pineapple Pie men, they were all Apple Pie's ex-boyfriends."

"How could they stand their ex-girlfriends who not only dumped them for this thing, but now they're also stopping them from venting their anger?"

"Goodness, that was quite a commotion."

Zeng Xiaoxian asked curiously, "Weren't there a few smart people who would stop them?"

For some reason, even Zeng Xiaoxian's tone revealed a hint of regret.

"Tch." Ziqiao muttered unhappily.

"They tried to stop them, but the magnanimous people kept trying to smooth things over. As a result, both the radicals and the apple pie disliked them. The radicals thought the magnanimous people were talking without understanding the situation, while the apple pie thought the magnanimous people were just pretending to be nice."

"People who are easygoing are just easygoing, they're not without temper. When they're being scolded by both sides, they just start arguing too."

"Not to mention that Lu Ziqiao is a real piece of work. He forgets his ex-girlfriend's name one minute and mixes up the names of his two ex-girlfriends the next."

"The few stupid women in Apple Pie were actually smug because Zi Qiao remembered their names but not the names of Apple Pie's other ex-girlfriends."

"Now it's not just arguments between factions, but arguments are even starting within the four factions themselves, and they've even started fighting amongst themselves."

Then Ziqiao and I took advantage of the fact that they were fighting so fiercely that we couldn't tell who was who, and quickly slipped away.

Meijia and Ziqiao exchanged a glance, then slumped helplessly onto the sofa: "What a nightmare..."

Xiao Xian, with regret, sighed, "It's a pity that people aren't united."

"Hey, what do you mean by this? Didn't you see me get beaten up by them? Are you disappointed?"

Ziqiao was filled with resentment. Even if he was a scumbag and hadn't treated his ex-girlfriends very well, he was still indignant.

But I've always been loyal to you three, so what's the meaning of you acting like you wish me dead?

Seeing Ziqiao's face fall, Guangu and Curry didn't know how to explain for a moment.

Finally, Zeng Xiaoxian, who was closest to Ziqiao, stepped forward and said, "Ziqiao, although I don't know what exactly happened between you and your ex-girlfriends."

"But if you alone can create four factions of men and women who would rather sacrifice their weekends and travel a long way to your place to demand justice and an explanation, and make such a big fuss about it."

From a normal person's perspective, whose problem is bigger between you two?

Ziqiao's expression was grim: "Even if I have a big problem, that's between me and them, not with you..."

"It's not really our business, and you've been very good to us, is that what you meant?"

Zeng Xiaoxian left his reserved seat and sat down next to Ziqiao, putting his arm around his shoulder.

"Yes, Ziqiao, you've been so good to us, so even if the whole world says you're a bad person, a scumbag, a jerk, we'll still be your good brothers and good friends."

"However, we are also normal people. We have normal value judgments. We know in our hearts who is right and who is wrong in a matter."

"We have a good relationship, but I still have to say something."

"You bastard, you're such a bastard when it comes to relationships!"

As he spoke, Xiaoxian jokingly punched him in the chest.

"Don't feel too wronged. It's like we all want you to learn a lesson, not to do anything good for you."

"Actually, we're in a dilemma right now. If we help you, we'll feel guilty. If we don't help you, we'll be letting down our relationship."

Lu Ziqiao's face turned ashen, and he didn't even want to look at Zeng Xiaoxian.

Normally, someone as shameless as him would just laugh it off.

Even the strongest person can become strange when they get sick.

Nanfeng was like this, and Ziqiao was no exception.

People who are sick always hope that others can be more considerate of them and put themselves in their shoes.

Even he himself knew that no matter what others thought, he was the only one who was wrong.

"Yeah, Brother Ziqiao, we're just watching the show. But if Sister Yifei found out, what do you think she'd do?"

Seeing that Xiao Xian's kind words were not being listened to by Zi Qiao, Curry Sauce switched directly to intimidation and attacks.

This intimidation attack proved to be very effective.

Ziqiao was struck dumb upon hearing this. Just a brief thought of it made him feel a chill run through his body, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

If Hu Yifei were to find out, given her fiercely righteous nature, she might not care about friendship or loyalty when she gets angry.

Before Ziqiao could even give an answer, Meijia was already making sarcastic remarks from the side.

"If Sister Yifei finds out about this, it won't be the four major factions besieging Love Apartment anymore, but rather Hu Yifei tearfully beheading Ziqiao."

Ziqiao trembled all over. At this point, he could no longer tell whether the trembling was due to his cold or his fear of Hu Yifei.

He quickly followed up, "Is Yifei busy today?"

"Don't worry, she's been busy all morning trying to make Nanfeng a bowl of clear soup noodles, but she hasn't accomplished anything. I bet her head is about to explode."

Guan Gu, who comes from a family of chefs, made a rough assessment: "At her current pace, she won't be able to leave the house until evening."

"That's good." Ziqiao breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Ziqiao had only managed to exhale halfway when the loud knocking on the door made it impossible for him to catch his breath.

"Is this the room?" came the voice of a strange woman from outside the door.

"3602, that's right. That helpful tenant said Lu Xiaobu lives in this room."

"But no one answered from inside?"

"Aren't you going to open the door? If you don't, we're going to break it down!"

"Why bother talking to them? Just break down the door and go in. How much does a door cost anyway?"

"No, we can't bang on the door. What if Xiao Bu comes to open it and you hurt him?"

"Idiot."

"Who the hell are you calling an idiot?!"

"Whoever answers me, I will say so."

"Your mom..."

"..."

Taking advantage of the chaos outside the door, Meijia delivered a powerful punch to Ziqiao's chest, finally allowing him to exhale the breath he had been holding in.

"Damn it, Chen Meijia, you went for the kill! You're definitely taking revenge out of spite!"

"Stop talking nonsense, they've already tracked us down here, what are you going to do?"

Zeng Xiaoxian interjected, "Ziqiao, as the host of a relationship-themed program, I still suggest you talk to them clearly and try to gain their understanding. It would be a way to say goodbye to the past completely."

"If you want to have a new life and a new future, then these are the people you must face and say goodbye to."

"Yes, Brother Ziqiao, a prodigal son who returns is more precious than gold."

Meijia watched him quietly, her hands constantly clutching the hem of her clothes.

Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Ziqiao knew they were waiting for him to make a decision, and he also knew what kind of decision they hoped he would make.

Ziqiao's heart began to waver. He opened his mouth again and again, but several times he swallowed back the words he wanted to say.

The increasingly urgent knocking and the arguing outside the door sounded like a death knell to him.

Finally, he made up his mind, gritted his teeth, and said firmly, "Mika..."

"Let's run, let's climb over the balcony."

Meijia's hand, which was gripping the hem of her clothes, instantly lost all strength and loosened.

Though late, it's here. To be honest, if I hadn't written that 3000-word launch statement, I would have already written 10,000 words by now.

The author is clumsy, but will try to update more chapters.
