Chapter 129: A Shocking Conspiracy
I looked up at him, and there was a deep silence in my eyes, and I wanted to say something, but I didn't want to say anything again.
He has a deep grudge with Si Tianzhe, and with Zuoxi's mad temperament, I will not be surprised by more insidious methods, let alone try to stop it.
It's just that my heart is still groaning. I understand that if it is just a commercial competition, no matter how difficult and dangerous it is, it is not enough for him to put Si Tianzhe in his eyes, but what if it is the most bitter betrayal in his life?
I can't imagine what kind of mood he would be in.
The old standing bell struck eleven times, and the accompanying trilling of my heart took my attention, and it was eleven o'clock...... I stared sideways, and the rain outside the eaves was entangled, like someone who couldn't break off the sadness for a long time.
For a moment, I withdrew my gaze, and the silver spoon slowly took a sip of tiramisu. Zosi immediately smiled, very dazzling against the background of platinum blonde hair, "Eat more, I will order someone to send a few engagement rings early tomorrow morning, you can pick one you like." β
The sweetness in the mouth turned into bitterness in an instant, blocking the throat and stinging unbearably.
*
The next morning, the rain gradually subsided, and the lead-gray canopy was thick and low, as if it could be pressed down at any time, and people could not breathe.
In fact, I was really breathless, and I felt a suffocating pain in my chest.
After a few deep breaths, I opened the bedroom door, and the outside of the door was no longer guarded in the same layers as before, and it looked extremely free.
I smiled coldly, turned around and went downstairs, and before I reached the hall, the black-clothed bodyguard who was on standby in the castle came forward, "Miss Ruori, morning." β
"I want to see Ye Ningchen."
The man in black was stunned, "Miss, this ...... This is subject to the young master's consent. β
"Then go and inform your young masterβnow." I sat sideways on the couch in the hall, looking patiently waiting.
The other party was obviously a little embarrassed. "But Miss, it's four o'clock in the morning, and I'm afraid the young master is still ......."
I raised one of my eyes and stared at him indifferently, "You mean, you want me to wait?" β
The man in black bowed his head. "The subordinates don't dare."
I was so irritable and patient that I had been plagued all night long, and I suppressed my emotions, fighting the last shred of good temper before the outburst, and said in a deep voice: "Find him to see me, and I will be responsible for all the consequences." β
"This ......"
"Find him." Before the attack, a distant tone suddenly came from the hall, and there was a faint echo in the empty castle in the early morning.
The main master's speech really worked, and when the man in black saw the visitor, he immediately responded: "Yes." Master. β
"Also," Zoshi slowly walked into the hall as he spoke, "Tell me to go down, Miss Ruori will always be your Miss Ruori, and from now on, whatever she commands, do as she is told." β
"Yes." The man in black turned and left.
I don't want to stay longer. I got up and got ready to go back to my room.
"Ruori." Zosi called out to me. A smile tugged at his lips, "I'll let them make whatever they want for breakfast." β
I paused for a moment, and when I looked up, I was still dressed from last night, and the tiredness of sleepless nights was faintly visible in his brows. A momentary premonition hit me, and my heart suddenly jumped.
Forcing myself not to think about that possibility, maybe he just woke up early, maybe the so-called sleepers were just my delusion, maybe...... Si Tianzhe has not yet mobilized manpower. Look for me...... Perhaps, he hadn't thought of or found out that I was with Zosi, so he didn't have a conflict with Zosi at all.
I steadied myself and walked upstairs calmly, "I'm not hungry. β
*
Before five o'clock, there was a calm and polite knock at the door.
Standing by the window, with my back to the door, I squinted, "Come in." β
The door opened, and the man seemed to pause for a moment, then proceeded steadily a few steps, and after a few steps, he stopped again, and stood where he was, not too close to me, and said nothing.
I turned around and looked at him.
Ye Ningchen in front of him was still dressed in a well-cut and unassuming pure black suit, with his usual white shirt and black tie, and almost no other decorations made him look decent and upright.
- It is indeed a calm and capable elite special assistant, such a person, no matter who is used, will show his strengths and handle the things ordered by his employer in an orderly manner.
I looked at him like this, and I was not in a hurry to speak, he was even more calm as usual, bowed slightly, and said respectfully: "Second Miss." β
It seems that the corners of his mouth can still vaguely see his kind smile as if it was yesterday, but unfortunately, the mask has been torn, and it is difficult to disguise it at the moment.
"Don't call it that, you can't afford it." I interrupted him and slowly approached him, and my words suddenly became sharp, "The eldest young master of the Ye family, the son of the chairman of the dignified Mingqi Group, has been wronged for so many years to be a small special assistant in the Lin Meng Group, which is really useless." β
Not the slightest surprise, he lowered his gaze slightly, not saying a word.
I stared at him and smiled coldly, "When were you arranged for Zosi to join the Lin Meng Group?" It's been a long time since I was lurking, before I escaped from the family...... So, thanks to you, everything I did in those two years was under Zossy's control? Including everything in recent times? β
He nodded very softly.
I slowly paced to his side, a line away from him, and looked back at him, "So, more than a year ago, Grandma carefully arranged a highly secret escape plan, and it was because of you that you allowed Zosi to easily catch me. It was no longer a question, but an affirmation, and my voice unconsciously brought some gnashing of teeth.
"After that, instead of staying in China to help my cousin, you followed my grandmother to England, because you know that even if I flee to the ends of the earth, I will one day get in touch with my grandmother, so that you can find out about my whereabouts, right?"
"Yes." Without the slightest delay, he calmly admitted.
"Including, you're going to take care of Nik for meβ" My voice was already filled with anger, and it became more and more difficult for me to calm down at the mention of the innocent and unpredictable Nik who was imprisoned by Zorsie, "Actually, it was also because I knew how important Nik was to me, so I took the initiative to capture Nik and threaten me?" β
He looked up at me, nodding or answering, but he didn't need a clearer acknowledgment.
"It's really a clever layout, a stealthy disguise, and a masterful approach." I smiled coldly, and almost applauded in admiration, "Zosi is really lucky to have a capable subordinate like you who is willing to condescend to be an undercover agent...... Now that I think about it, the crisis of the Linmeng Group, I'm afraid it was also deliberately made by you, what kind of sluggish performance and serious losses, in fact, are all to provoke me to enter the Linmeng Group, so as to increase my exposure to you? Let Si Tianzhe make them even more unguardable? Looking at him gloomily, I sneered, "In those days, you were the first to arrive at the company every day, I really thought that you had done your best for Lin Meng and died, it was really ridiculous......"
"Yes. Second Miss, what you said is right...... "There was no other reaction other than calm, he looked at me indifferently, and accepted all the rebukes and criticisms.
"I told you you weren't allowed to call me that." I interrupted him coldly, ridiculous, the person who usually made me feel the most cordial, and who could be relied on in every detail, after the disguise was torn, it turned out to be a conspiracy and a deep city to the point of being terrifying.
What does it feel like to be betrayed? What does it feel like to be betrayed by someone you once trusted?
In addition to resentment, I am afraid that there is more despair and pain.
"I'm sorry...... Miss Ruori. He was stunned, then changed his words, stared directly at me, and seemed to have a certain taste of determination, "I can't argue with what you said, and it is indeed true, I have betrayed Miss's trust first, if Miss can relieve her anger and be happy, I am willing to accept any punishment," he raised his head slightly, his face was fearless, and he said indifferently: "Ye Ningchen is here, let Miss Liuzhi dispose of it." β
"If you punish you, you can make Nik come back to me unharmed......" I leaned close to his ear and said fiercely, "I really want to cut you with a thousand knives, but unfortunately ......"
A moment of heartache hit me, and a mist rose over my eyes, and I hurriedly turned my back to him and cast my eyes out the window.
"Miss......" saw my sadness, he called softly, and walked forward.
I gently raised my hand and motioned for him to stop.
The footsteps behind him stopped.
I was speechless for a while.
After what seemed like a long time, I stared at the green trees in the distance and suddenly asked, "Tell me your story, how did you become Zosi's subordinate?" β
There seemed to be a soft sigh behind him, "Young Master Zoxi, is my savior." β
Unexpected, but reasonable, with Ye Ningchen's former identity and his arrogant personality, how could he be easily bought by money and status? The origin of this is not expected to be simple.
"A few years ago, my father offended the enemy family and colluded with the most powerful gangsters in North America to seek revenge because of his grudge against people in the business field, and Master Zoxi accidentally rescued me, but my father ......" His almost undulating voice had a slight wave for a moment, but it was a flash, "Since then, I have followed Master Zoxi and am determined to serve him." As for entering the Linmeng Group...... In fact, it is the meaning of the master, when the master is alive, his cautious lady knows, and it is the principle of the master to arrange his henchmen everywhere so that everything is under his control. β
I bowed my head, indeed, it was my father's habit.
"It's just ......," I saw a moment of sadness in my eyes, "since Zosi had already controlled my whereabouts, and knew my whereabouts almost the next moment I escaped from the family, why did he embarrass Bella so much and cost her her life......"
"Miss Ruori, Bella, she-" As if she wanted to burst out of her mouth, but he forced her back, I couldn't help but be surprised when I looked back.
"Bella, what's she? What do you know? "Intuitively, things are not that simple, I approached him and asked eagerly, "Tell me." β
"Miss......" he looked back at me, as if he had made a great deal of determination, "there was someone else who really killed Bella. (To be continued......)
