Zhang Xiaotao was still waiting there. In fact, ever since that day, after waking up, Zhang Xiaotao had been so angry that she refused to speak to Chen Xiao. Although she loved Chen Xiao very much, as a girl, she still felt jealous, and not only did she feel jealous, she felt extremely jealous.
Let this brat know how deeply dissatisfied I am! Otherwise, who knows how many girls will be throwing themselves at him in the future!!
Chapter 272 of the main text: [Three Women Make a Drama]
As she waited in the courtyard today, Zhang Xiaotao couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. In fact, her heart had softened a bit over the past two days. She thought to herself, after all, Chen Xiao had amnesia and couldn't remember many things. Perhaps, the girl who came looking for him was also a misunderstanding, and it wasn't him who knocked her unconscious, but that hateful girl. It seemed wrong of her to take her anger out on Chen Xiao.
She loved Chen Xiao deeply, so naturally she tried her best to make excuses for him.
While waiting in the courtyard, she suddenly saw three figures descend from the sky and land in the courtyard, standing right in front of Zhang Xiaotao!
Zhang Xiaotao exclaimed "Ah!" and when she saw the person in front of her clearly, and the two girls in Chen Xiao's arms, she exclaimed "Ah!" again.
These two girls look exactly alike—which one was the one who knocked me out that day?!
Seeing Chen Xiao holding her tightly, Zhang Xiaotao's jealousy, which had subsided, suddenly boiled over again.
Chen Xiao didn't have time to explain, and sighed, "Xiao Tao, there's no time to explain, let's go quickly."
"Walk?"
"Hmm!" Chen Xiao gave a wry smile: "I've caused a bit of trouble. I don't want to fall out with the Xiao family, so I have no choice but to leave first."
Seeing that Chen Xiao was still tightly holding the two girls while speaking, Zhang Xiaotao became even angrier. She stomped her foot and shouted angrily, "You! Let them go first! What kind of behavior is this!"
Chen Xiao knew that the two girls were already incredibly weak, and if he let go, they would probably fall to the ground immediately. He smiled wryly and said, "This..."
"What do you mean by 'this' and 'that'!" Zhang Xiaotao almost cried out in anger: "You just bully me, don't you! Hugging and kissing other girls right in front of me."
If we were to ask who held the most important place in Chen Xiao's heart in the past, it might have been Zhang Xiaotao, but it was more likely Phoenix...
But now, having lost his memory, Chen Xiao sees Phoenix and Xiao Qing as people who "might" be related to him, but Zhang Xiaotao in front of him is his real girlfriend!
Hearing Zhang Xiaotao's tearful voice, Chen Xiao felt anxious and almost subconsciously let go of her arms. Poor Phoenix and Xiao Qing, without Chen Xiao's arms, their bodies went limp and they fell to the ground with two cries of pain.
Phoenix was furious. In her heart, she was the real girlfriend! The others were the third parties! Seeing Chen actually throw her to the ground for this girl, she felt wronged and her eyes suddenly reddened. She stared at Chen Xiao and burst into tears.
As soon as Chen Xiao let go, he saw the two girls fall to the ground and immediately regretted it. He quickly bent down and helped them up again, saying with a wry smile, "Sorry, sorry, it was my fault."
"Chen Xiao! You bastard!!" Phoenix cried, tears streaming down her face. "How could you do this to me... Back then, you... you..."
Xiao Qing, however, was much calmer at this moment. She glanced at Phoenix indifferently and said coldly, "What are you sad about? Chen Xiao doesn't remember anything from the past at all."
Phoenix wiped away her tears forcefully, glanced at Xiao Qing, and suddenly smiled: "You're feeling sad too, aren't you?"
Xiao Qing blushed, but put on a stern face: "Don't drag me into your messy entanglement!"
Phoenix was overjoyed and actually reached out to touch Xiao Qing's face, laughing, "Good sister, you actually love him to death, don't you? I wouldn't do it with anyone else, but you are my sister, we are twin stars destined for each other. If you must like him, I'll share half with you."
Her words were meant as a joke, but Xiao Qing blushed even more, angrily retorting, "What nonsense are you spouting! Who's your sister! I, I, I, I don't like it..."
She couldn't bring herself to say the word "he," even she knew that it would be too much of a lie to say "I don't like Chen."
But seeing that her beloved was now surrounded by more and more girls, she realized that he probably didn't care about her at all. And her confession a few days ago seemed to have been a misunderstanding. She was afraid that she had just been disappointed all these days... Thinking of this, she was filled with sorrow and couldn't help but cry.
Phoenix sighed, but glared at Chen Xiao and said angrily, "Hey, you've made my sisters cry! Hurry up and pick us up!"
"No hugging!"
"I insist on being hugged!"
"No hugging allowed!!"
Zhang Xiaotao glared at Fenghuang resentfully, but Fenghuang glared back without hesitation. Both girls were convinced that they were the rightful girlfriends and the other was the third party.
Chen Xiao had a terrible headache, and finally couldn't help but show some of his manly spirit, angrily saying, "What's all the noise about! We can argue after we leave here!"
After saying that, he suddenly walked over, picked up Zhang Xiaotao, and Zhang Xiaotao screamed, but Chen Xiao put her on his back. She was about to struggle, but Chen Xiao whispered, "Hold on to my neck, hold on tight."
Zhang Xiaotao's heart softened, and she finally hugged Chen Xiao with a wronged expression. She was filled with hatred, but deliberately used all her strength, as if she wanted to strangle this philandering man!
Chen Xiao sighed, then picked up the Phoenix and Xiao Qing sisters, one on each side, and now there were four of them.
Zhang Xiaotao had just tightened her grip on Chen Xiao, but then her heart softened, afraid of hurting him. She immediately loosened her grip a little, but when she saw Chen Xiao pick up his two "love rivals" again, she was furious. As soon as she loosened her grip, she tightened it again. Luckily, she tightened it, and then she saw Chen Xiao suddenly leap into the air and fly over the inner courtyard wall.
"Where are we going?" Xiao Qing gritted her teeth. "I'm a member of the Xiao family, I can't run away with you!"
Chen Xiao hesitated for a moment: "Let's find a place to hide first, and then... sigh, let me think of a way, and then I'll go back and discuss it with the old man."
Phoenix's eyes darted around: "Yi... I do know a place! Let's go to the back mountain, there's a nice spot there that nobody goes to."
In the valley behind the mountain, in front of the dilapidated little brick house, a man and three women finally escaped the Xiao family and came here.
Looking at the dilapidated brick house covered in moss in front of him, Xiao Qing frowned and looked at Phoenix with suspicion: "This is the place where the elders of our Xiao family practice martial arts in seclusion. How do you know about this place!"
Phoenix had already stood up and slowly walked to the door—she left Chen Xiao's side. Zhang Xiaotao breathed a slight sigh of relief, but turned her head to stare at Xiao Qing.
How did I know?
Phoenix sighed, stood in front of the door, and gently pulled off a rusty copper latch from the door panel. With a gentle push, the door panel creaked open, and a damp, rotten smell rushed out.
“As I just told you, I often sneak back to the Xiao family to see you. Sometimes I stay here for a while. There are too many people in the town, and my appearance is too similar to yours, so it's inconvenient to stay in the town. Staying here saves a lot of trouble. I told you, you and I are sisters. I often come back to see you secretly, but you just don't know it.”
Phoenix's complexion improved slightly. Actually, when she was with Xiao Qing, she only lost her extraordinary power and felt slightly weak and powerless. At first, she would feel a little dizzy, but it would get better after a while. At this moment, she was just like an ordinary weak girl. There was nothing else wrong with her. After getting used to it, the feeling of weakness didn't bother her much.
Without even glancing at Xiao Qing's expression, Phoenix said calmly, "We can clean this house a little and rest here until evening. Hmm... there's a mountain spring a bit to the left, and the water is drinkable. There's also an earthen stove behind the house; we can get some firewood and start a fire."
Xiao Qing opened her mouth, even more surprised!
