Chapter 149: Thoughts are in vain
Kuan and Zhuo Jinan has always known that although Copperfield is with him on the surface, but in private he is very close to Bei Zhongtian and others, although Zhuo Jinan didn't say anything, but he also looked at these things in his eyes, so he didn't trust Copperfield very much, and the slightest wind and grass made him suspicious, so when he heard that Copperfield adopted Bei Ling out of the mood of missing his granddaughter, he didn't believe it, but it was a cover that Copperfield used to protect Bei Zhongtian's daughter.
When they killed Bei Zhongtian's family, they obviously didn't find Bei Zhongtian's daughter and killed her, but they couldn't find her, the outside news, including the explanation given by Copperfield, was that Bei Zhongtian's daughter died in the fire, as for they didn't find her, Copperfield's explanation was that he found her near the bomb shelter under the Bei family's grape trellis, and it is estimated that she was hiding in the bomb shelter in advance, and it was not until the house caught fire that she had to run out of the bomb shelter, only hating that the fire was too big, how could a small woman have the ability to escape from such a sea of fireTherefore, when Copperfield arrived there, all he saw was the charred body of Bei Zhongtian's daughter, and he was grieved in his heart, but he had no choice but to bury Bei Zhongtian's family in pain, so this is the reason why Zhuo Jinan has never been able to find her.
Copperfield's explanation is reasonable, and there is no fault in it when you look at it horizontally or vertically. But because the explanation is too perfect, Zhuo Jinan's suspicion is even heavier, Copperfield, who is he, his means, his city, his mind, how can Zhuo Jinan, who has been his classmate for many years, not know, his old classmate has always done things without leakage, and perfect explanations can always make the false true, which is why Zhuo Jinan is suspicious of him, the more perfect the answer is, the more in line with his style as an old classmate.
Therefore, when he heard the answer given by Copperfield, Zhuo Jinan neither showed faith nor disbelief, but just lightly answered Copperfield clearly, and asked for condolences and other words to send him away, but after the incident, he vigorously sent people back to investigate secretly to see if there was really an air-raid shelter in the Bei family, and he took a look at the tomb of the Bei family to see if Copperfield was making up lies.
The results of the investigation came out quickly, and the facts in front of him could confirm that Copperfield was not lying, but this did not make Zhuo Jinan eliminate his suspicions, but instead became more guarded against Copperfield, first adopted his granddaughter at this juncture and then gave such a flawless explanation at this time, although it could be explained, but such a coincidental time piled up, so that Zhuo Jinan had to be more suspicious, and his suspicion was not unreasonable, Copperfield and Bei Zhongtian's family have always had a close relationship, so how could he be so calm after facing the tragic death of Bei Zhongtian's family, although he also gave Zhuo Jinan a perfect explanation for this - this is a matter between you, it has nothing to do with me, and you are all my best friends, so I can't help any of you to deal with the other, all I can do is to persuade and turn a blind eye and don't let myself get involved. Since both of you are unwilling to listen to my advice, then I can only ignore the contradictions between you and let you solve them yourself, and what kind of results will be produced during this period is a matter between you, I have no right to interfere, and I will not interfere, only after you end such a struggle, can I fulfill my duties as a friend within the scope of helping you, so when I received the news that the Bei family was destroyed, I didn't feel much, because, I saw through the outcome of this struggle from the beginning, either you die or I die, there will always be a winner and a loser between the two of you, and I am a friend, I can only congratulate the winner, for the loser I can only sympathize with him and do my best to give him some help, for them to collect the body of your family and build a grave, I have done my best as a friend, and it can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, there is nothing to feel guilty about, so there is no such thing as resentment against you because of the tragic death of their family.
His words were perfect, and his expression was unmistakable, and there was really no doubt about it. And Zhuo Jinan didn't want to say anything in person out of face, so he had to nod and say some polite words to send him out. But behind the scenes, Zhuo Jinan has been sending people to secretly follow Copperfield, obviously not fully trusting him. Gradually, Zhuo Jinan's suspicion was slightly relieved, and he waved his hand to remove the person who was tracking Copperfield, and an important willingness to make Zhuo Jinan's suspicion rise again was also because on the third day of his withdrawal from his follow-up, Copperfield brought back Bei Ling, and no one knew whether his encounter with Bei Ling was really as he said.
Why is it so coincidental? Why did he do nothing during the time when the man in black was following him, and he didn't show anything, but soon after the man in black left, he began to say that he missed his granddaughter and decided to adopt a homeless orphan.
So even if Copperfield could always calmly give a near-perfect explanation under his questioning, Zhuo Jinan did not choose to trust him, but responded on the surface, but in his heart he had already begun to plan to kill Bei Ling to prevent future troubles.
Finally, on this day, Zhuo Jinan couldn't hold back, and asked the man in black to forcibly break into Copperfield's house in the name of having invited guests, and robbed Bei Ling, and Copperfield's nervous expression also made Zhuo Jinan more sure that Copperfield's previous words were all lies, even if it was those evidences, they were all forged to make the statement more perfect, in fact, Bei Zhongtian's daughter was not dead at all, it was he Copperfield who was in death, so he designed all this, the purpose was to make him undoubtedly think that Bei Zhongtian's daughter was dead, so as to give up the idea of looking for her, so as to achieve the purpose of protecting Bei Zhongtian's daughter。 Zhuo Jinan sighed in his heart, Copperfield is a person who does things well, but it is because he is so excessive in chasing perfection that he has to be suspicious, it is his perfection and calmness that betray him, even if he tries hard to protect the Bei family, he still sees through it, and can't help but feel a little proud, in contrast, his plan is really above his old classmate.
Ignoring Copperfield's pleas, he captured Bei Ling, and was convinced that she was the biological daughter left by Bei Zhongtian, and was also very satisfied with Copperfield's tearful and painful expression, yes, this is the expression he should have, after all, his godson is dead, how can he still have such a pessimistic expression? Watching Copperfield's old tears chasing after him, Zhuo Jinan's mood was very good, for two reasons, one was that he found that he finally found Bei Zhongtian's widow and let Copperfield's thoughts come to naught, and he was finally able to solve the last person of the Bei family, and he was able to cut the grass and eradicate the roots with peace of mind;
What kind of ruthless person Zhuo Jinan is, Bei Ling is deeply aware of it, the punishments of the Zhuo family are almost all over in a month, and she was rescued several times when she was dying and continued to torture, just because they decided that she was Bei Zhongtian's widow, just because she was Bei Zhongtian's widow, should she be so ruthless? In this month, Copperfield came to the door every day to ask for a meeting, and even did not hesitate to kneel and kowtow, just begging Zhuo Jinan to let her go, her feelings and crying are quite real, and her words are also touching the world, that is, many people in black who are guarding the door can't bear to feel compassion when they see Copperfield's appearance, and they spontaneously intercede for Copperfield in front of Zhuo Jinan, saying how great such an old man is for his granddaughter, and even kowtowing on his knees, and saying how pitiful such an old man is, and pleading for his granddaughter every day。
Hearing this, Zhuo Jinan's ears not only did not make him angry, but he was unexpectedly comfortable, and he was even willing to open the net and let the man in black bring in Copperfield, whose head was broken outside.
When he saw Copperfield, who was dirty and messy, haggard and unthinking, cracked, and bloodstained on his forehead, Zhuo Jinan was very satisfied, this is right, for his goddaughter who has always loved, he must have such an expression. In a very happy mood, he asked Copperfield what he was doing. Copperfield's voice was tired but urgent, and he said something begging him to let Belin go, saying that she was just a child, and there was no need for this. But I don't know that the more nervous the rhetoric is, the more excited Zhuo Jinan feels, and asks him, "It's just an orphan who has been picked up, is it worth it for him to lower his status and kneel to people like this?" First, he Copperfield is not such a person, and secondly, Copperfield has always been obedient to himself, when has he ever questioned his decision, even if he wants to kill someone in front of him, just because he is fun, he Copperfield will never blink an eye, let alone intercede for the other party, so, if it is a situation like today, Copperfield, whom he Zhuo Jinan, knows, should decisively give up this girl to find another one to be his granddaughter, instead of risking anger to plead for this girl, this is not him Copperfield。 Then there is only one reason that can make him do this today - that is, Bei Ling is the widow of Bei Zhongtian, and she is the person Copperfield cares about. That's why he has such a move to come back in exchange for Bei Ling at all costs.
