Chapter 165: Eve
A month later......
The moon shadow was mottled by the leaves, the breeze sent the fragrance of flowers, and it was another quiet night.
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps, the strength was vigorous and fast, although I didn't see who it was, but it was definitely a practitioner. The person who came came with a gust of wind, blowing a white trench coat standing in the back of the majestic shore in the mottled branches and leaves. After the powerful clenching of fists, a deep and powerful voice sounded: "Young Master Gu, everything you ordered has been dealt with." β
"Good. Hearing the satisfactory answer, the man wearing the white fox mask slowly turned around and looked at the man in black who was kneeling on one knee, and his deep eyes under the mask deepened.
At the same time, Zhuojiabao, on the eve of the trade.
When Zhuo Yan came in, he bumped into Zhuo Zihan, who also came back, his eyes met, and no one spoke, but the servant clearly felt the powerful aura emanating from the two young masters, and even the surrounding air was becoming thinner and thinner under their silent competition, and if they didn't find a way to leave quickly, they would probably be affected.
I haven't seen him for a month, and Zhuo Zihan has changed a lot. This "change" does not mean that his hairstyle and dress style have changed, but that the aura he exudes from head to toe inside and out is different. The silent and condensed look is completely different from the straightforward character who had something to say before, although his previous unforgiving personality was really annoying, but he was not a person who was deep in the city, but now, he was so silent, so calm, Zhuo Yan couldn't read it.
It's not that he doesn't know about Beiling, it's just that when he knew, it was too late, and there was no room for recovery when things had already happened. He knew how important Bei Ling occupied in Zhuo Zihan's heart, and he also knew how much of a blow Bei Ling's death would have dealt to him, and Bei Ling's death had an inseparable relationship, if he hadn't said it so hurtfully, Bei Ling would not have died to such an extent, and he ended up with hatred until the end. Bei Ling is the woman Zhuo Zihan loves most in his life, he knows that he can do anything for her, even if Bei Ling wants to take his life, he will definitely give it with both hands without hesitation. This woman is the treasure that he holds in the palm of his hand, but now the treasure in his hand is shattered in an invisible place, Zhuo Yan doesn't know how painful Zhuo Zihan's heart should be, he once imagined that Zhuo Zihan would transfer his hatred to himself after Bei Ling's death, and then launch a crazy revenge on himself, he thought of him who was crazy, he would rush to his villa with a gun and shoot himself to make him pay for his blood debt; he thought that he would never recover, he thought that he would implicate his anger on many people, but he didn't expect it to be like thisγ
I didn't expect that when I said goodbye, he would be so calm.
Zhuo Zihan looked at him indifferently, looking at him calmly, that kind of expression seemed to be looking at a person he never knew, he didn't feel a deep malice, nor did he feel a hatred that was enough to destroy a person, and not even a trace of anger could be found in him. His appearance has not changed much, but the originally slightly plump face is now thinner, which makes the already delicate silhouette more obvious and beautiful, and the appearance of the spirit is not at all like a person who has just experienced great sorrow, and the word haggard is really not linked to him now.
Zhuo Yan was surprised by Zhuo Zihan's performance, but it seemed to be expected. Looking past Zhuo Zihan and glancing at Ling Ri who was standing behind him, compared to Zhuo Zihan, it was thanks to the help of the military behind him that Zhuo Zihan was able to come out of Bei Ling's grief so quickly. Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, Zhuo Zihan's expression was so calm and indifferent because he thought that Zhuo Yan was his own brother, and he couldn't kill each other for a woman, right?
So the black people say that although Zhuo Zihan loves Beiling, he can't really turn against his brother for a woman, but the resentment in his heart has nowhere to vent, so he can only bury it deep in his heart. Therefore, when he met Zhuo Yan head-on again, he could only face him with such silence, which was also the maximum he could do.
On the surface, it may be like this, but only Zhuo Yan knows that Zhuo Zihan is definitely not such a person who can swallow his anger, he has always been straightforward, he has always had revenge and grievances and complaints, and now he can maintain such silence is not because he chose to forgive because of the family rules, but because Zhuo Jinan's face is accumulating deeper strength, as soon as the time comes, he will not hesitate to fight back and send him the most fatal knife.
Growing up together, Zhuo Yan can't understand his brother anymore, since Bei Ling appeared in his life, his world just revolves around her, she is in his world, she is gone, his world will collapse, people are eager to survive, so he carefully takes care of his world, but his world still collapses in front of his eyes. Looking at their Zhuo family again, on the surface it is a rich and noble family, but the family and blood are never valuable, how could he, Zhuo Zihan, let go of him, the most evil murderer in his eyes, for this ridiculous only connection?
Seeing Zhuo Zihan like this, Zhuo Yan also had to affirm his growth in his heart, at least he knew how to hide his emotions, and silently accumulating strength to give the enemy a fatal blow at a critical moment. And this blow is what Zhuo Yan should bear and accept, and it is not wrong that he killed Bei Ling.
Zhuo Yan was still shocked when he received the news of Bei Ling's death at that time, and sent someone to investigate, but Zhuo Zihan's people also blocked the news, and nothing could be found, so Zhuo Yan couldn't be sure if Bei Ling's final cause of death was because he pushed her. He knew that he had used ten percent of his strength, and he clearly knew that Bei Ling would definitely hurt Neiri, but the physical condition of the family with Bei Ling would not be fatal, so how could he die inexplicably after leaving? Although he couldn't know the final cause of Bei Ling's death, Zhuo Yan was sure that someone must be secretly manipulating, the purpose was to finally blame him, so that the relationship between him and Zhuo Zihan would be even worse. The other party's purpose in doing this has always been to let him and Zhuo Zihan kill each other, and finally reap the benefits of the fisherman. Zhuo Yan knew that even if he told Zhuo Zihan about his guess, he would definitely not choose to believe himself. So what he can do now is only to find out the black hand behind the scenes as soon as possible and bring it to Zhuo Zihan in person, so that he may have a chance to ease.
After some exploration behind his back, Zhuo Yan was even more sure that Bei Ling's death was a premeditation, and the purpose was obviously to achieve the current goal. Such an incident is so cleverly arranged at the moment when the big deal in the sea of tears is about to be made, it is really a lot of money.
I don't know how long this kind of staring lasted, but I knew that when I heard the voice of the servant greeting Zhuo Jinan, the two ended this kind of staring and saluted Zhuo Jinan as usual.
Zhuo Jinan walked over steadily with a goshawk cane under the support of Steward Zhang, stood still between Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan, glanced at them left and right, and then nodded with satisfaction, but in January, his two sons seem to have grown a lot, and the aura on their bodies finally has a bit of the appearance of a master, so he reached out and patted them on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, don't pestle here, go in." β
The two responded, and then respectfully followed Zhuo Jinan into the restaurant. Still sat down in their respective positions as usual, and the atmosphere at the table was still unchanging and dull, Zhuo Jinan looked at the two of them who were obviously more indifferent and more ruthless and speechless, his heart was very happy, he raised his hand and stroked his beard, and said unhurriedly, "Second child." β
Zhuo Jinan called him, Zhuo Zihan replied respectfully, and listened carefully, Zhuo Jinan said, "I have heard about Beiling's girl." You must know that life cannot be resurrected, and you must also mourn. β
"Yes, Father Xie remembers. β
"I'm calling you back today, and you all know why. Tomorrow's Sea of Tears Fair is an annual large-scale trade fair held by our Zhuo family, which is a very important chamber of commerce for our Zhuo family, and I will attend in person, and you, as a member of the Zhuo family, will naturally be present. When the time comes, colleagues from all over the world will come to participate, and you should give me the opportunity to take advantage of it and have more experience. β
In Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan's promises, Zhuo Jinan listed a series of important tasks, and after a family banquet, all the things that should be explained were also clearly explained. The calmness and calmness shown by Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan today were beyond Zhuo Jinan's expectations, but they had to secretly feel that Bei Ling's role was great. Just because of her death, she can make her son's temperament change greatly, and she really died well and lived up to his cultivation grace over the years, even if she died to the end, she helped herself.
After a family banquet, Zhuo Zihan and Zhuo Yan never communicated, they listened to what Zhuo Jinan said, and then Zhuo Jinan left the table first, and the two had no intention of saying anything, so they got up and left the table to go back to their respective homes to prepare for tomorrow's affairs.
In the corridor, Zhuo Yan stopped Zhuo Zihan first, and he asked him, "Isn't there anything you want to ask me?" Zhuo Zihan didn't smile, "When will it be my turn to ask the third brother?"
How could Zhuo Yan not know that he was angry and hateful in his heart, and whether he wanted to have too much communication and involvement with him, but there were some things that even if he didn't believe in himself, he had to remind him that he was a younger brother, "Tomorrow's Chamber of Commerce will be very dangerous, as for where the danger comes from, I think you should know." β
