Chapter 122: Paying the Price
Zhou Chengyan's deep voice carried an undisguised bloody aura: "Before the Xiang clan's eight billion debts are not paid off, there is no need for the Xiang clan to continue to operate." ā
Xia Yi felt a chill in his heart.
What this means is that all of Xiang's ongoing projects can't be carried out!
"Yes." He quickly responded: "Don't worry, I will take care of it." ā
Zhou Chengyan answered and hung up the phone.
But it didn't take long for the mobile phone to ring, and seeing that it was Li Sinian, Zhou Chengyan paused for a moment and picked it up.
"How's Joey doing now?" As soon as the phone was connected, Li Sinian immediately asked.
Zhou Chengyan raised a hand, and gently wanted to rub Qiao Ai's frowning brows: "Her mental state is not very good, I will take her home now." ā
Li Sinian sighed: "She, a person who has never seen a bloody scene, suddenly faced herself with murderous ......"
Zhou Chengyan interrupted her coldly: "The person was not killed by Ai Ai, and the person is not dead." ā
Li Sinian knew that he had lost his words, and hurriedly apologized: "It was my slip of the tongue." I mean, it's normal for her to be in a situation like this, and you should spend more time with her these days. Things in the company ......"
He paused for a moment and put forward a possibility: "Is it possible that Zhou Chenghao did this?" Everyone knows how much you value Joado, and after that incident some time ago, his position in the company is already in jeopardy, so he wants to distract you from doing this kind of thing to gain a foothold in the company again......"
"He'd better pray that he's not involved." Zhou Chengyan's voice was extremely cold!
Li Sinian was still about to say something, but the car suddenly bummered, and Qiao Ai's eyebrows were slightly lame, as if she was about to wake up.
Zhou Chengyan quickly hung up the phone with one hand, and whispered in her ear comfortingly: "It's okay, Ai Ai, I'm here, sleep." ā
Joe hugged him a little tighter.
And the phone vibrated again in the palm of his hand.
Zhou Chengyan glanced at the new caller ID, and this time he directly cut it off, and at the same time pulled the person into the blacklist.
When Qiao Ai woke up again, there was only a dim yellow light in front of her, and her heart jumped suddenly, her mind was not fully awake, and suddenly, she saw the scene of the middle-aged woman with a dagger in her chest, and she was still unwilling to stare at her with wide eyes and hatred when she fell on her back.
She held her head in her hands and screamed uncontrollably: "Go away!" Go away! It's not like I'm going to kill you! It's you! Go away! ā
"Ai Ai." Someone forcibly pulled down her hand: "Ai Ai, you are sober, it's me!" ā
"It's not me! Not me! Joe repeated the sentence in horror.
Zhou Chengyan turned on the bright lights in the room, and the lights that suddenly lit up were a little dazzling, and his eyes were covered with a warm palm as usual, allowing her to transition this time: "Ai Ai, we are home, this is our house, there are only the two of us." ā
Qiao Ai's body trembled, she took off the hand in front of her, and looked at Zhou Chengyan who appeared in front of her, her eyes were sour.
She suddenly threw herself into Zhou Chengyan's arms, grabbed his clothes tightly, and her body was still trembling uncontrollably: "I, I didn't kill her, it was herself, who suddenly held my hand and bumped into it by herself." ā
Zhou Chengyan patted her back soothingly: "I know." ā
"I ......," Joe said hastily, remembering what the men had said to her at the police station, "IāI haven't done what she said, I don't even remember that I knew her son......
Zhou Chengyan said briefly and forcefully: "I know. ā
"I ......" Qiao Ai wanted to say something more, but Zhou Chengyan held her cheek, and her panicked eyes met Zhou Chengyan's eyes. 12
"Ai Ai, you don't need to explain this to me." Zhou Chengyan's voice was low and firm: "You just need to remember that no matter what happens, I will stand by your side." ā
Because of his words, a heart seems to have finally found a home that can be docked.
Joe hugged him tightly, almost using all her strength.
Zhou Chengyan gently patted her back connived, he lowered his head, and a light kiss fell on Qiao Ai's hair: "You slept all afternoon, I asked people to cook what you like to eat, go eat some first, okay?" ā
Qiao Ai buried his face in his chest, and answered sullenly, and the strength in his hand did not loosen a little.
Zhou Chengyan smiled lowly: "Ai Ai, do you want me to take you?" ā
Joe bit her lower lip slightly.
On a normal day, she would not make such a move.
But now, she was so scared that even in the bright room, she still felt that there were such a pair of wide eyes staring at her silently, with bitter hatred.
Only by Zhou Chengyan's side, only by feeling his body temperature, the feeling of coldness and fear will be dispelled.
She was silent, letting go of her strength, and then hugged him even tighter.
"Let's change our position, huh?" Zhou Chengyan whispered in her ear, and the hot air blew, flowing all the way into her body, causing her body to tremble slightly.
In the next second, Qiao Ai's legs bent through an arm, her body was light, and she was already held in Zhou Chengyan's arms.
Zhou Chengyan took her to the restaurant, a light dinner had already been set on the table, Zhou Chengyan put her on a chair, pulled the chair on the side by himself, and was close to her.
Joe looked around like a creature that had strayed into a new land.
"Why is the family gone?"
"You don't want to see outsiders right now, so I let them all go first."
Zhou Chengyan peeled a steamed shrimp, a smile on the corner of his lips, and sent it to Qiao Ai's mouth.
Qiao Ai was stunned for two seconds, slowly lowered her head, and swept the shrimp away from Zhou Chengyan's hand, and her lips and tongue swept over Zhou Chengyan's skin.
There is nothing in this action, but her eyes always stay on Zhou Chengyan's body, and the attachment in her eyes is undisguised, unaware, but the most seductive.
This action suddenly gave me some other feelings. Zhou Chengyan withdrew his hand as if he had been burned, and his fingertips still had the temperature and touch that Qiao Ai had touched, making him twist it hard.
Qiao Ai looked up at this time and commented seriously: "It's delicious." ā
Her eyes were clear and unstained with dust, and Zhou Chengyan almost had a feeling that he didn't know how to face her eyes.
He silently distanced himself from Joey.
Zhou Chengyan was extremely considerate to Qiao Ai, and today he took special care of her feelings everywhere.
But Qiao Ai's eyebrows have been crappy, obviously a little out of the world.
"Don't worry, that person is still being rescued, I have invited all the experts at home and abroad to come over, she will not die."
Although Zhou Chengyan didn't care about the woman's life or death, if that woman died, it might leave Qiao Ai with a psychological shadow for a lifetime, and based on this alone, Zhou Chengyan would not let her die.
