Zhou He stayed in the dark room, unable to calm down for a long time. Qin Yang's words 'That grand wedding still lacked a little truth' kept echoing in her mind, and she just stood motionless.

After a long time, she sat down on the cold floor against the window behind her, looking up at the pitch-black ceiling. When talking on the phone in the living room, Cheng Wei's hoarse voice seemed to be next to his ears. Zhou Hesheng was a little tired, closed his eyes and leaned against the wall.

She has been under house arrest for at least ten days by Qin Yang, but until now, she still doesn't know what Qin Yang wants to exchange with Cheng Wei for her. I don't know what all this is all about.

Zhou He felt a little powerless in his exhaustion.

From the beginning, she didn't know everything about Cheng Wei. Even if you know something, it's just scratching the surface.

Whether it is in front of her uncle Li Peiyuan or Cheng Wei, what they give her is only protection. She felt like a waste in front of them, many times.

She leaned back with her eyes closed, and many thoughts were surging in her head. She didn't want to think about it, and restrained herself from letting the churning emotions calm down. I opened my eyes in the dark.

In any case, she couldn't just sit still.

She slowly stood up and lifted a corner of the curtain. There was silence in the courtyard, not even the sound of footsteps, and the whole courtyard was even more eerie in the dim light.

Zhou He knew very well that even if it was silent, this small courtyard was not as calm as it seemed. She is now going downstairs from the stairs, and before she can reach the gate of the courtyard, she will be caught.

So, if you want to go out like that, you can't do it.

She stood quietly behind the curtain and looked out, and after half an hour, she lay down quietly on the bed.

She barely slept that night, and when it was dark outside, she heard Qin Yang's car driving away.

Zhou He got up at half past eight and went downstairs as usual.

They guarded her much more tightly than in previous days, and as long as she went out of the living room, her aunt would follow her every step of the way.

Zhou Ji didn't speak, didn't go out, just sat in the living room.

It's not raining outside, and there's a thin ray of sunlight outside. The courtyard was covered with a golden halo.

Probably afraid that something would go wrong by sitting in the living room all the time, the aunt stepped forward and asked politely, "Miss Zhou, the sun is out outside, do you want to go out for a walk?"

Zhou Ji did not refuse, and nodded in response.

The yard is not big, although there is a front yard and a backyard, but there is not much to walk. The aunt took her to bask in the sun in the front yard for a while, but there was nothing in the front yard except for a dense cluster of creepers. ”

Zhou He sighed and said yes. With the aunt went to the backyard.

Tables and chairs are set up in the backyard, and the flowers and plants are alive with the rare sunshine. The aunt had nothing to do, so she picked up scissors and repaired the dead leaves of the flowers and plants. While cultivating, he had nothing to say and talked to Zhou He about the habits of these flowers and plants.

The flowers and plants that can be planted in Qin Yang's yard are not ordinary. There is also a pot of orchids that bloom delicately.

Auntie waited cautiously, saying that this was brought back by Qin Yang, and it had been a few years, and it had only bloomed this year.

Zhou He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, which means that this house can be regarded as Qin Yang's old nest.

She didn't say anything, and after a while, she took the initiative to find some topics and talk to her aunt.

She took the initiative to talk to her aunt and was happy, and she talked more than usual. Before Zhou He could ask the question he wanted to ask, his aunt said, "Miss Zhou, I have been by Mr. Qin's side for many years. Mr. Qin has been suffering from illness for a long time due to physical reasons, and his temper is a little strange. ”

She hesitated a little when she said this, and then said, "But he is different to you. For so many years, I have never seen Mr. Qin so close to anyone. He has always been alone, and he rarely speaks except for official business. You...... Don't be afraid of him. I know it's wrong for Mr. Qin to put you under house arrest here, but he must have a last resort, so please bear with me. He wouldn't do anything to you, and if he really took you hostage, he wouldn't let you be here. ”

Although she is now under house arrest, she has not been treated badly in any way.

Auntie is usually afraid of Qin Yang, Zhou He didn't expect her to say such a thing at all, I don't know if it was arranged.

She smiled faintly and nodded.

Auntie was relieved a little now, and moved on to other topics.

Zhou He didn't go upstairs all day, either to watch the flowers and plants in the backyard, or to bask in the sun in the front yard. In the evening, when my aunt started cooking, she said that she was a little tired and wanted to go upstairs to lie down. Eat it later in dinner.

The aunt didn't suspect anything and asked her what she wanted to eat. She was ready to call her.

Zhou He said that he wanted to eat small crispy meat.

The aunt politely said that she would sit down later, and let her go to rest first. She went upstairs, and someone followed her upstairs. Zhou He didn't have anything unusual, and after going upstairs, he closed the door when he entered the house.

The sky outside slowly darkened not long after Zhou He entered the house, and it was as silent as ever without a sound.

Zhou He didn't turn on the lights, looked at the height of the second floor from the ground, removed the quilt sheets, and tied them into a dead knot. She didn't have any tools, she couldn't tear the strip of cloth with her bare hands, and when she saw that the length was not enough, she took out the towels in the room and the clothes she had changed to wear and tied them into ropes.

When she smelled the smell of crispy meat outside, she tied the rope to the leg of the bed, and then climbed up to the window.

Outside, there was a gap between the walls and walls, and there was no one. Falling to the ground safely, she calmed down a little, and then gently walked to the front yard.

Probably knowing that she was resting upstairs, there was no one in the front yard at the moment. She closed her eyes with her back against the wall, and silently entered the middle of the creeper on the opposite wall.

The aunt downstairs didn't realize it, and after frying the crispy pork and stir-frying the vegetables, she put it on the table, and then went upstairs to call Zhou He for dinner. There was a guard at the door upstairs, and when I knocked on the door, there was no response, so I took the key and opened the door.

The house was in a mess, and there was still Zhou He's figure in it. The aunt's face turned pale, and she shouted loudly: "Come on, Miss Zhou is gone." She escaped through the window. ”

At this moment, Qin Yang and the housekeeper were not there, and as soon as she shouted, the people guarding outside were startled, and hurriedly entered the courtyard and went upstairs.

The walls of this courtyard are so high that it is impossible to get out without tools. Zhou He knew that they would react soon, and took advantage of this only gap to quietly flash out.

As she had expected, she had barely left the courtyard when she heard someone arrange to guard the door, while others searched everywhere.

The courtyard is only so big, and those who can't find her will definitely react quickly and come out to search. It was pitch black everywhere, and Zhou He didn't even have time to argue about the direction, nor did he dare to take the main road, but only dared to run to a place where there was no road.

Zhou He's escape this time was not successful, and the mistakes of the people under Qin Yang's men were just at the moment of panic. The reaction was faster than she expected, and before she had run far, the people in the yard searched outside with flashlights.

In the silence of the night, as long as the movement is a little louder, it will be noticed, and Zhou He's speed slows down, trying not to make a sound.

But she still underestimated Qin Yang's people, and it didn't take long for a dog to bark behind her. Flashlights shone in the direction she had fled.

Less than an hour after Zhou He's escape, he was arrested and returned to the house.

Qin Yang should have been notified from the time she disappeared, and less than half an hour after she was arrested and returned to the house, there was the sound of a car outside.

It didn't take long for Qin Yang to be pushed in from outside.

There was no expression on his face, and there was no wave in his eyes, he glanced at Zhou He, whose hands and feet were bound, and said, "I seem to remember, I reminded you not to want to run away." ”

Zhou He's body was in a mess, and he had some injuries on his body. She sneered and didn't look at Qin Yang.

Qin Yang didn't speak again, and looked at her coldly. After watching it for four or five minutes, he lightly instructed the people around him: "Since Miss Zhou's spirit is so good, from now on, you don't need to eat anything." After a slight pause, he continued, "Take it to the back room." ”

His tone was equally unwavering.

The faces of the housekeeper and the aunt changed, and they called Mr. Qin.

Qin Yang didn't look at him, and said lightly: "Can't you hear what I said?"

Now I didn't dare to speak anymore, and I respectfully answered yes. He made a gesture to the people outside, and immediately someone came in and set Zhou He up.

The little black house he was talking about was the place behind the yard where the big wolf dog was kept. Zhou He was quickly thrown into a corner. The dog was chained, and as soon as the door was closed, it barked at Zhou He. Sensen's fangs were exposed.

The length of the chain allowed it to reach Zhou He's face without hurting her, and Zhou He could even smell the fishy heat coming out of its mouth.

Her face turned pale, and even though there was a wall behind her, she still moved back little by little, clinging to the cold wall.

It was probably an unfamiliar breath, and the dog was jumping up and down barking. It wasn't until a long time later that it gradually stopped.

Zhou He was brought out of the small dark room two days later, and during these two days, she had not eaten a drop of water, and the ropes tied to her hands and feet had turned her hands and feet blue and purple.

No one untied the rope for her, and she was put into the car.

Qin Yang had already sat in a car in front of her, and after she was thrown into the car, the driver immediately started the car.

The car drove for a while, probably to make her look less embarrassed, and a call came from the car in front of her to untie the ropes from her hands and feet.

Zhou He's whole body was weak, and his hands and feet were tied for too long, so he couldn't move for a while.

There was no one in the car talking, and even she, an outsider, could feel the solemnity of the atmosphere. She wouldn't know why Qin Yang let her out, and she leaned on it motionless with her eyes closed.

The car did not drive towards the city, but after entering the main road, it drove more and more. After more than an hour, it stopped in front of an abandoned factory building.

Qin Yang's people inspected the factory first, and then tied Zhou He's hands again, and then dragged her outside.

Qin Yang was already on the second floor, and Zhou He was taken to his side. He glanced back at Zhou He lightly, closed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking, and after a while, he said, "Let's call." ”

He has always been cautious, and in order to prevent Cheng Wei from cheating, whether it is time or place, it is temporary.

The butler beside him answered yes, took out his mobile phone, and dialed a call.

The phone had just rang, and Cheng Wei's voice rang immediately. His voice was hoarse, and he fed.

The housekeeper immediately said where he was, and asked Cheng Wei to come over in an hour.

This is a suburb, and it's more than an hour to get from the city.

Cheng Wei on the other end of the phone did not have any objections, and said, "I want to talk to Zhou He." ”

This lord and the housekeeper couldn't do it, and looked at Qin Yang. Qin Yang raised his chin and motioned for him to take the phone to Zhou He.

The housekeeper immediately walked to Zhou He's side and said, "Mr. Cheng, please speak, Miss Zhou is listening now." ”

Cheng Wei seemed to be unable to find anything to say at this moment, and was silent for a while before saying, "Did they do anything to you?"

He seemed to be restraining his emotions.

Zhou He didn't speak, and after a long while, he said, "I'm fine, don't worry." She wanted to tell him not to come, but she knew that at this moment, even if she said it, it wouldn't be of any use. She could only behave as usual, so that he didn't have to worry.

But despite her best efforts to behave as usual, her weak voice betrayed her.

Cheng Wei didn't speak anymore, and after a minute or two, a gloomy voice came through the other end of the phone, and said word by word: "Tell you Mr. Qin for me, I will do the conditions he proposes." But if ......"

He didn't say anything more here, and hung up the phone.

The threat in his words could be heard as long as his ears were not deaf, the housekeeper's face changed, but Qin Yang's face did not change at all, and he said, "Put out all the lights." ”

The butler answered, and immediately asked people to turn off all the lights here. There was darkness all around.

Qin Yang's people were all well-trained and did not make a single sound. It's so quiet that it's like a dead building.

The more this moment comes, the more calm it seems to become. Qin Yang didn't know if he was holding the chance to win or what, and he wasn't the slightest bit anxious. Closed eyes and pretended to sleep.

However, the housekeeper next to him was not as calm as him, and he would check the time every once in a while. The atmosphere was solemn, and as the minutes passed, the surroundings became even quieter.

Fifty minutes later, you could see lights coming from a distance. Although Zhou He didn't know what Qin Yang had prepared here, he knew that it must be a lot of bad luck, and his heart suddenly rose.

The housekeeper in front of him breathed a sigh of relief, and seeing that Qin Yang was still with his eyes closed, he said in a low voice, "Mr. Qin, someone is here." ”

Qin Yang only opened his eyes at this time, and he didn't give any instructions.

Cheng Wei's car was driving very fast, and as soon as the words fell, the sound of the car's engine was close at hand, and then stopped at the end of the road.

At this moment, Qin Yang asked people to turn on the lights.

The sudden light was a little dazzling, and Zhou He was a little unaccustomed. Subconsciously closed his eyes, Qin Yang had already looked downstairs.

As agreed, Cheng Wei only brought Li Jing over alone. When he came over, he subconsciously looked upstairs, but he didn't see Zhou He, who was gagged and taken to the back of the block.

Before Cheng Wei could speak, Qin Yang raised his wrist to look at the time, chuckled, and said, "It's just an hour, and Mr. Cheng is quite punctual." ”

Cheng Wei's handsome face was full of anger, but it was suppressed in an instant. The corners of his lips hooked, made a casual look, and said: "Mr. Qin invited, how dare you be late?" After a slight pause, he continued: "I have already brought only one person here as Mr. Qin said, does Mr. Qin also want to show his sincerity and let me see the people first?"

His tone was calm, as if he were talking about a business in the mall.

Qin Yang smiled faintly and said, "Of course." ”

He made a gesture as he spoke, and Zhou He was brought up. Her mouth was still gagged, and she couldn't speak. The whole person was escorted by two big men.

Cheng Wei's face changed, he sneered, looked at Qin Yang, and said, "Is this Mr. Qin's sincerity?"

Qin Yang smiled faintly and said slowly: "Miss Zhou's energy is too good, the people under me are played by her, and I almost can't say that she brought it over and handed it over to Mr. Cheng personally." This is a last resort, and I believe that Mr. Cheng will understand. ”

He is holding the trump card in his hand and has no fear.

Cheng Wei's clenched fists were bruised, but he still endured it. Directly into the topic, he asked lightly: "Mr. Qin has always refused to say his conditions, can he say it now?"

Qin Yang smiled and said, "Mr. Cheng is really refreshing. He said as he tapped his fingers on the wheelchair, and then said: "Mr. Cheng doesn't need to be nervous, the conditions I put forward must be something that Mr. Cheng can do." Otherwise, there's no need to waste our time, is there?"

Cheng Wei looked at him coldly, did not speak, and waited for his next words.

Qin Yang didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and took out a cigarette. The housekeeper stepped forward to light the fire for him, he took a puff, and then said: "Thanks to Mr. Cheng and that Officer Xu, Officer Li, I am now a lost dog." ”

He could still laugh at this time, spit out a puff of smoke rings, and then said: "As long as Mr. Cheng is tonight, let my people leave." They're all ready, over there at the docks. I believe that Cheng always has the ability to arrange it well. ”

Cheng Wei didn't know if he had guessed the conditions he proposed, so he sneered and said, "Is Mr. Qin overestimating me? I don't have the ability to reach the sky with one hand like Mr. Qin. ”

Qin Yang laughed at this time, glanced sideways at Zhou He beside him, and said, "Cheng always thinks, Miss Zhou is not worth the price?"

As he spoke, he pulled out a handful of wooden silos and pointed them at Zhou He's head. The smile on his face quickly turned cold.

Cheng Wei's face changed and said, "Mr. Qin knows very well that this is not an easy task, and I need time. ”

Qin Yang slowly put away the wooden warehouse again, and said slowly: "Of course." But my patience is limited, and I want my people to leave safely before dawn. Otherwise, my hands shake, and I dare not promise to do anything. ”

Cheng Wei didn't speak, looked at Zhou He upstairs, answered the hello, and asked lightly: "I did what Mr. Qin proposed, when does Mr. Qin plan to release him?"

Qin Yang smiled faintly and said, "Is Mr. Cheng worried that I won't keep my promise?" After a slight pause, he slowly wiped the wooden warehouse in his hand and said, "Mr. Cheng doesn't seem to have any other choice now. ”

As soon as he said this, Li beside Cheng Wei immediately changed his face.

Cheng Wei stretched out his hand to stop him, endured this breath, and also smiled faintly, and said, "Mr. Qin is right, I really have no other choice now. ”

After he finished speaking, he said lightly to Li Jing beside him: "Ah Jing, call Lao Cao and ask the person who arranged Mr. Qin to leave." ”

He was very calm.

Li couldn't bear this breath, the green tendons on his forehead jumped violently, and in the end he still answered the word yes, dialed Lao Cao's phone, and conveyed Cheng Wei's order.

The phone hung up not long after, Qin Yang raised his wrist to look at the time in his hand, smiled slightly, and said, "I'm waiting for Mr. Cheng's good news now, presumably Mr. Cheng won't let me down." After a slight pause, he said to the people around him: "Cheng is always our distinguished guest, move a chair for Mr. Cheng to sit down and rest." ”

The butler beside him immediately answered yes and went downstairs.

Cheng Wei's face didn't change at all, he moved the chair over, and he sat down on the chair. Everyone was waiting for news from there, no one spoke, and the factory fell silent again.

It took about half an hour before Li Jing's mobile phone rang. He picked it up and fed it. I don't know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but he said he knew. After hanging up the phone, he said to Cheng Wei: "Mr. Cheng, Lao Cao's side has already been arranged." ”

Cheng Wei nodded, looked at Qin Yang, and said, "My people have been arranged, and after Mr. Qin's people leave safely, please keep Mr. Qin's promises." ”

His tone was very light.

Qin Yang raised his wrist to look at the time, waiting for his person to call. He smiled and said, "It's easy to say." It's just that I hope Mr. Cheng won't let me down. ”
