Chapter Twenty-Six: Vicious
"How could it be...... How could it be ......" Zheng Zheng gasped, constantly silently reciting in his heart.
This situation ...... It's completely impossible!
Zheng Zheng clearly remembered every step he took to put away the jade bracelet, and there was no problem with any of these steps, for the sake of safety, he even opened the box when he closed the door of the safe, and the jade bracelet at that time was still intact.
Why did this jade bracelet become like this overnight?
Zheng Zheng subconsciously raised his head, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Zheng Bei standing aside, and the dazzling sneer that the corner of Zheng Bei's mouth had not yet been put away.
Be...... Zheng Bei?!
The moment he saw Zheng Bei's expression, Zheng Zheng struck a fierce spirit, and instantly woke up from his anxiety. He glanced at the torn jade bracelet in the box again, and then stared straight at Zheng Bei.
Although he didn't know how Zheng Bei entered the Donglai Pavilion and opened the safe where only he knew the password, he was ninety percent sure that it was Zheng Bei who did it!
Because, the way the jade bracelet broke was too strange. The jade bracelet was broken into six neat sections, and although the six fragments were of different sizes, there was no jade slag in the box. Normally broken jade artifacts will crack down some jade slag at the fracture, but in this box, there is no trace of jade slag.
"Zheng Bei, that's what you did!"
Zheng Zheng stared at Zheng Bei deadly, silently thinking in his heart.
Zheng Zheng's skepticism has its own justification. First of all, the way this jade bracelet was broken is too strange, it seems to have been carefully made like this, in order to be able to repair it properly; secondly, Wang Zhao had inadvertently revealed before that Zheng Bei had pursued her but was rejected by her, judging from the current appearance, Zheng Bei still has no dead heart on Wang Zhao; secondly, judging from Wang Zhao's performance, this jade bracelet is of great significance to her, and it is obviously not as simple as a simple jade bracelet.
The most important point is that Zheng Bei has the ability and experience to repair this broken jade bracelet.
Zheng Zheng sorted out these things back and forth, and said secretly in his heart: "If Zheng Bei can repair this jade bracelet completely, then needless to say, no matter how much Wang Zhao doesn't like Zheng Bei, he will change a lot because of this incident." And Zheng Bei can also use this matter to hit me well, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. It is not a good thing for me and Wang Zhao to break the jade bracelet like this, but it is very beneficial to Zheng Bei, and repairing antiques is completely easy for him, and he has no loss at all, so he can both hit me and please Wang Zhao. ”
Although Zheng Zheng was already sure that Zheng Bei planned this matter, he also knew that this was just his idea, and he didn't have any evidence to prove that Zheng Bei did it. So Zheng Zheng didn't speak, just looked at Zheng Bei's actions with cold eyes.
"This ......"
Zheng Bei looked at the broken jade bracelet in the box, and secretly shouted in his heart for his arrangement, but his face did not show any of it, and the surprise and regret on his face did not look like it was pretending at all.
He looked at the fragments in the box and shook his head, and then looked at Zheng Zheng with an angry face--his angry expression didn't need to be pretended--Zheng Bei said sharply: "Zheng Zheng! What's the matter with you? Xiao Zhao gave you this thing for temporary safekeeping, which is trustworthy to you, but what about you? What kind of thing are you doing? Do you know how much this thing means to Xiao Zhao!"
"Hmph, it's hard to say how this thing was broken, I don't know, you may know a little bit of the inside story. ”
Zheng Zheng lit a cigarette and stared at Zheng Bei through the smoke with narrowed eyes: "Besides, even if this thing is broken, it is a matter between me and Wang Zhao and the two of us, what does it have to do with you?
Zheng Bei was speechless for a while, he really wanted to do something, but now was not the good time he expected. He paused and said, "You said this is a matter between you and Xiao Zhao? Okay, then it is a matter between the two of you." Now that the transaction has not been completed, then this jade bracelet is yours for the time being, I want to see how you are going to give Xiao Zhao an explanation. ”
"Huh. Zheng Zheng chuckled, pointed at Zheng Bei with the cigarette roll in his hand, and said, "Your Zheng family Zheng Dashao is standing here, can't you repair this jade bracelet? As long as you are willing to stretch out your hand, there should be no problem for this jade bracelet to be restored by you, right? Or do you not want to help Miss Wang do this?"
Zheng Bei cleared his throat, he glanced at Wang Zhao, who was silent, just quietly crying when he looked at the broken jade bracelet beside him, and then said to Zheng Zheng: "You said it yourself, this is a matter between you and Xiao Zhao, and now that the transaction is not completed, this thing can't be regarded as Xiao Zhao's, it can only be regarded as yours." If Xiao Zhao needs my help, of course I'm happy to help. But help you? Zheng Zheng, it's not such a cheap thing. ”
"Tell me about your conditions, Zheng Bei, anything can be discussed. ”
Zheng Zheng had expected that Zheng Bei would sing with him like this, so he was not in a hurry, and said in a very flat tone.
"Return the 1.5 million to Xiao Zhao, and give the two Tian Huangyin to Xiao Zhao, which can be regarded as your compensation to her. In this way, I can complete the jade bracelet. Of course, the jade bracelet after completion will also belong to Xiao Zhao. ”
Zheng Bei had already thought in his heart, even if he couldn't defeat Zheng Zheng by doing such a thing this time, he would have to let Zheng Zheng spit out the two Tianhuang seals. Zheng Bei didn't care if he could have these two Tian Huang Seals himself, but he just couldn't accept these two Tian Huang Seals in Zheng Zheng's hands, and he couldn't tolerate Zheng Zheng profiting from them.
Zheng Zheng was about to speak, but he heard Wang Zhao, who had been silent on the side, whisper: "No need...... No need ......"
Wang Zhao's eyes were blank and he looked depressed. She closed the box on the counter, picked it up, and staggered out of the store.
"Wait!" Zheng Zheng and Zheng Bei shouted in unison, but Wang Zhao didn't hear it, so he just continued to walk outside the store.
"Tsk......"
Zheng Zheng let out a "tsk", turned around and walked out from behind the counter, and walked in front of Wang Zhao in three steps and two steps to block her way.
Wang Zhao raised his head, and his red eyes, which were already crying, looked straight at Zheng Zheng.
Zheng Zheng's heart twitched when she looked at her. What can make this queen Fan's royal sister cry with pear blossoms and rain, and unabashedly her little woman's side, must be something extremely important to her. Looking at this look, Zheng Zheng felt a little guilty for no reason.
"Please wait, please wait. ”
The ghost sent the gods, Zheng Zheng stretched out his hand and gently wiped away Wang Zhao's tears. Wang Zhao subconsciously dodged, but there was no obvious resistance.
Zheng Bei on the side looked at Wang Zhao's appearance and was dumbfounded.
Zheng Zheng's tone was extremely gentle: "I don't know what this jade bracelet means to you, it should be something very important to you, I broke it, I'm sorry." ”
Wang Zhao moved as if he hadn't heard it, and was about to walk past Zheng Zheng.
"Listen to me!"
Zheng Zheng somehow had a sense of pride in his heart, and he grabbed Wang Zhao's shoulder so hard that she couldn't move. Zheng Zheng said in a deep voice: "Look at me and listen to me." ”
This sound seemed to have great magic, and the depressed Wang Zhao obediently raised his head and looked at Zheng Zheng.
"I don't like to owe someone else, and I can't owe a woman. I'm responsible for breaking your stuff, and I'm responsible for it. I will repair this jade bracelet in its entirety and then give it to you. ”
Zheng Zheng's eyes did not dodge the slightest bit and looked at Wang Zhao's eyes, and his tone was firm: "Wait here first, I will give you an answer." Trust me, I can do it. ”
Seeing that Wang Zhao was silent, Zheng Zheng breathed a sigh of relief for the time being, and he said softly: "Now, sit there and rest for a while, and wait for me to talk to Zheng Bei." ”
Wang Zhao looked at Zheng Zheng's eyes, Zheng Zheng did not flinch at all, and looked at him openly. After a while, Wang Zhao gently closed her eyes, sighed, and when she opened her eyes again, she nodded lightly to Zheng Zheng.
Seeing Wang Zhao slowly sit down on the chair next to him, Zheng Zheng was sure in his heart. He turned around and walked to the counter, and when he walked past Zheng Bei, Zheng Zheng gritted his teeth and whispered, "Good job, Zheng Bei." ”
"Why can't I understand what you're saying?" Zheng Bei said with a sneer.
"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about it, talk about your conditions. ”
Zheng Zheng sneered and shook his head, no longer competing with Zheng Bei on these side matters, he walked back to the counter, looked at Zheng Bei and said.
Although he really wants to tear Zheng Bei alive now, Zheng Zheng knows in his heart that the only way to restore the jade bracelet is to find Zheng Bei, and no one else can count on it. Even if he went directly to the Zheng family's mansion to ask the Zheng family for help, but Zheng Bei was in the way, nine out of ten would have to come to naught.
"The conditions are the same as just now, and this is the same. But I just thought of something interesting, would you like to hear it?"
Zheng Bei saw that Zheng Zheng had been forced to this point, and his heart was extremely refreshed. He knew in his heart that now the initiative was in his hands, and the condition he said was that Zheng Zheng could only accept this way, so Zheng Bei no longer had any scruples.
"Tell me about it. ”
Just as Zheng Bei thought, Zheng Zheng did not refute it at all. He looked at Zheng Zheng, smiled brightly, and said, "I want you to smash your glasses and smash the abacus in front of the shopkeeper of the entire antique street, and ......"
Zheng Bei paused and said, "After this, I want you to continue to stay in this Donglai Pavilion and continue to be your palm." ”
"It's ruthless enough, Zheng Bei. Zheng Zheng stared at Zheng Bei deadly, his eyes almost spewing fire.
Zheng Bei smiled indifferently: "People can't stand unsteadily if they are not ruthless." ”
