Hearing this, the corners of his lips hooked up a trace of helplessness, and there was a little emptiness between the words, "Who can change what you decide...... It's just that there is one thing you must promise me. ”

Met his serious eyes, I bowed my head and said, "I promise." ”

He raised an eyebrow, surprised.

I'll smile knowingly, and even if you don't say it, I won't understand.

"Whenever I need it, I will definitely ask you for help, and I will not be polite." I stared at him, calm and sincere.

He grinned, and then his eyes rolled, "Since Xiao Ruori is so simple, I still have a request, and you can also apply to it......" He leaned down affectionately, close to my ear, "It's better for us to ......"

Sure enough, it is not enough to expect him to let go of his cynicism, even for a moment.

Pushing him away with one hand, I said coldly, "Bored." ”

He smiled to himself, and raised his eyes behind me, but his gaze was paused, and the smile on his lips gradually took on some meaning.

I was curious, followed his gaze and turned to look, ten meters behind him, Si Tianzhe stood in the backlight, his long figure blocking the oblique sunlight, making his face in the dark shadow a little cold.

A slightly playful tone then sounded beside him, "I really mean that someone has arrived, but unfortunately, how happy he would have been if he had arrived a step earlier to hear what you just said......

However, when I saw him, all the bits and pieces of last night suddenly came back to my mind, and I was gloomy and resentful, so I decisively withdrew my gaze and said to Shang Xunyu: "I still have something to do, go first." ”

"Huh......" Before he could wipe himself, he grabbed my arm, glanced in the direction of Si Tianzhe, and then looked back at me, with a smile in his eyes: "Why are you in a hurry." Wouldn't it be disappointing that people came to see you, and you left like this? ”

I glanced at him, "Please, he's here for that project with the Folkmins family, what does it have to do with me." ”

"Ruori. When will you not be able to deceive yourself? He couldn't help but sigh, even with some dissatisfaction, "The president of the dignified Si Group, how many important things have to deal with every day, does he personally come to run for a certain detail of a project?" The contract has been negotiated, and it is enough for him to send a manager over after that, so you can't understand it......"

I couldn't help lowering my eyebrows, many things I didn't understand, but I didn't dare to understand. I can't see through a lot of details, but I don't want to see through it.

"Forget it," he whispered, loosening the force from my arm, "if you don't want to see him, forget it......"

How could I not want to see him?

How many times have I asked myself why I can't hold back the painful thoughts in my heart, and why I don't want to give up any opportunity to contact him. Every time he appeared in front of me, I couldn't wait to escape.

Without hesitation, I walked to the black car parked on the side of the road. I sat down through the door that had been opened by the waiter.

The car sped away, as if cutting off my chaotic thoughts, and also cut off the unpredictable eyes that were clinging to me.

At night, I sat by the window absentmindedly flipping through a picture book, and Zosi had been silent since he entered my room. Just pacing around and looking around, it was as if the timeless furnishings in my bedroom had suddenly piqued his interest.

His face stood silently in front of a few picture frames, and for a long time, I looked at them from a distance, and I could not remember what those pictures were captured. I just remember that they had been in that place a long time ago, and that Zosi had copied the original appearance of the Furcummings house, and when everything was roughly familiar, people often didn't go into every detail in detail.

And I, on the other hand, didn't have that interest.

His eyes were still fixed on the photos, and he finally spoke, his voice as pale as his face, "I heard, you gave Phyllis a sports car today?" ”

"Hmm." I answered.

"Why did you suddenly think of giving her a car?" He asked, turning around.

"Isn't it normal for a boss to care about his subordinates?" Slowly flipping through the album, I wrote lightly: "What's more, Phyllis is not an ordinary subordinate. ”

He bowed his head, and I knew that such an answer would not convince him, but he did not ask any more questions.

"Last night's assassination," my eyes did not lift from the album, and my calm voice was not a request, but a notice, "I'll handle it myself." ”

There was no immediate response, and as if he hadn't heard anything, Zosi paced to the pure crystal Steinway by the window, his right hand drooping, his slender fingertips touching the keys, and in a standing position, he struck a slow and affectionate song with one hand.

"Romance of Love".

Instead, I closed the album and watched him play, and because I was only using my right hand the whole time, the piece sounded half a beat slower than before.

The rhythm of his fingertips did not stop, he stared out the window, and there was a deep silence in his voice, "You want to face him yourself?" ”

I was a little surprised that he would ask like this, but I replied calmly: "No? Previously, you put me in charge of the cooperation case with Si Shi and created an opportunity for me to contact him, but now I am not allowed to deal with him? Let alone...... I can tell you that Si Tianzhe had nothing to do with this assassination. ”

The melody stops abruptly before the tune ends.

His fingers froze the keys suddenly, and the white keys he pressed made a long, piercing note in the stillness of the night, and in a moment his right hand was removed from the piano and walked in front of me.

Although I didn't know whether he liked or angry, I still maintained my posture, sitting in my chair without moving, quietly watching the people who approached me step by step.

He stood in front of me and, unexpectedly, got down on one knee.

"Ruori," half-kneeling in front of me, he looked up at me, his face was calm and beautiful at this moment, "What you want to do, I won't stop you......" Holding my left hand casually on one side, the sapphire on his middle finger shone with a luxurious light, which looked extremely dazzling at this time.

My left hand was brought closer to his lips, a kiss fell softly on the ring, and a deep voice whispered, "I want to cherish you......"

The surroundings were extremely quiet, just like my untouched heart at the moment.

What kind of thing is feeling, when you have feelings for someone, he just needs to stand there quietly and take away your breath, and when this feeling passes, even if you swear to the mountains, your heart will not be moved in the slightest.

A gentle knock on the door came at the right time, accompanied by the handmaid's respectful voice, "Young Master, Dr. Somerhalder is here, and now you are waiting in your study." ”

"Got it, I'll go over right away." Zoshi replied, then smiled at me, "Well, go to bed early." ”

"Wait a minute." He got up and was about to leave, but I suddenly spoke.

Met with his inquiring eyes, I said seriously, "I want to learn how to use a gun." ”

"Oh?" He was slightly surprised, but there was a smile in his eyes, "What's wrong with Ruori?" I used to teach you self-defense techniques and refused to learn them, and it took a lot of effort for you to reluctantly agree to learn a trick, why, the little princess has changed sex now? ”

I was silent.

"It's okay, learn to use a gun, I can protect myself in a critical moment, and I can rest assured."

I didn't expect him to agree so simply, but I was stunned.

"Alright," he reached out and stroked my cheek softly, "I'll rest early tonight, and I'll teach you this weekend, okay?" ”

Seeing that I bowed slightly, a smile appeared in the corners of his eyes, and then he turned around and left my room.

The door opened, closed softly, and I watched his back disappear, full of questions.

Recently, Zosi's personal doctor seems to have come a little frequently, but if he is exhausted and overworked, there should be no need to be so nervous, but looking at Zosi's appearance, it doesn't look like he is seriously ill, I shook my head, no matter what, his business has nothing to do with me.

In the early morning of the second day, Ye Ningchen came to see me.

"How's it going, do you have a clue?" I asked hurriedly.

He shook his head, "All traces were wiped clean by her, and she started quickly, even the killer that night, because of the fierce explosion at the scene, there was no survivor, and there was no evidence left at all." ”

Phyllis, count yourself ruthless.

My fingertips were clenched, and my eyebrows instantly became solemn, but there was nothing I could do.

Although I have to get rid of Phyllis on my own, I still need to borrow the hands of the Furcummins family, if I have enough evidence this time, Phyllis wants to kill me, plus the evidence that Phyllis assassinated me a year and a half ago, which is still being investigated, then I can logically use the power of the family to eradicate this traitor, even if Zosi can't bear it, he can't say anything.

But now......

I sighed, and buried my body in the sofa, after all, it was already a step too late.

"Miss," I thought about another way out in a depressed mood, and Ye Ningchen beside me said softly, "To get evidence, there is actually another way, it's just ......"

I stared, "Just what?" ”

"It's just that it may embarrass Miss." He lowered his eyes and said calmly.

"You say." At times like these, even if it's difficult, I'm going to give it a try.

He looked at me and said bluntly: "The Si Group is also investigating this matter now, and I have received information that they have obtained extremely strong evidence before Phyllis destroys everything, including when Phyllis bought off the killers through whom, and when one of her accounts remitted a large amount of money to the outside world a few days ago, who the payee is, etc., these records are currently in the hands of President Si. ”

At this point, I have heard the approximation, "You mean, you can go to Si Shi to steal ......"

He was silent, and the meaning was obvious.

Suddenly, I wanted to laugh, in fact, the corners of my lips really pulled a helpless and sarcastic smile, and I wanted to sigh, God's will makes people.

Fortunately, the biggest bargaining chip for my revenge is in his hands, just as then, and the only bargaining chip I have in exchange for my future is also in his hands, and after a long absence, how similar the two are.

Why is it that the person who should be avoided the most should be inextricably linked between me and him?

Or perhaps, this is an unavoidable entanglement and collision. (To be continued......)
