Chapter 880: Just With The Fact That He Loves Me
Ah Chen agreed with this very much. He was in awe of Leng Zhiyuan, and he admired Leng Hao even more. Leng Zhiyuan was a pro who was apt at manipulating the situation.
“But Young Miss, how are you so sure that Scorpion is Ye Ziyi? If we got the wrong person, this…”
“In the past two months, someone created a trap for me to fall inside of. I have a very strong feeling that this person was just by my side! If Ye Ziyi is innocent, then I believe that it is very easy for him to get through it. If he is not innocent, I want to see him shed his powers and pretense. I want to see what kind of tricks he has up his sleeve.”
Ah Chen nodded his head and said, “Yes.”
“That is right. How are the matters going in the horse stable?”
“Young Miss, everything is ready, and we are just waiting for your orders.”
“Okay. Within this week, I want to take action on the horse stable! If Ye Ziyi is Scorpion, he has been stripped of his powers right now. The horse stable belongs to him, and he was attacked again. I want to see how he will react. I am not afraid of him taking action. I am just afraid that he would do nothing. The moment he takes action, the entire trail in the top will be exposed. I want to pull these lines out personally. I want to break his wings!”
“Yes, Young Miss.” As he spoke, Ah Chen hesitated for a moment before he said, “Young Miss, we are taking such huge actions. The moment we succeed, it would take half of Scorpion’s life away. I am afraid that he will do something bad to Young Miss.”
Leng Zhiyuan heard what he said and turned her head around to look over at Ah Chen as she said, “He would not.”
“Young Miss, why are you so sure of that?”
“Hah, ever since the time in Yun Nan, Scorpion has focused all of his thoughts on me. He took such a big round and wanted to play around with me and Zhou Yao. This kind of person, he is extremely perverted. In the eyes of such a pervert, the weaker you are, the less fun you are. He wants to kill easy targets quickly. The more stubborn you are, the more fun he would have. Don’t be worried. He still wants to play around with me, so killing me, he does not bear to do so.”
“Yeah, also Young Miss, I can understand the reason for you not wanting to tell Young Master about Scorpion’s matters, but do you also not plan to let son-in-law know?”
Son-in-law…
Zhou Yao…
Leng Zhiyuan’s cold features became gentle immediately. Telling him, how would he react?
Everything that she was doing right now was already fighting with Scorpion under the table. She guessed that Scorpion would feel painful and itchy inside his heart right now. She successfully attracted Scorpion’s attention and made Scorpion feel interested.
If he knew about it, he would definitely not agree to her being in danger. He would try his best to make her retreat from this battle.
But, she was unable to retreat.
Men and women had different roles. He had always been a direct soldier, and he might have not lost when he was on the battlefield, but talking about strategy and playing around with the opponent, he was far from it.
For example, she sent people to send precious metals and beautiful women to the horse stable. She was using the strategies of her profession. Could he agree to it?
He came from a different background from her. He stuck to his principles when he handled matters, but she only wanted it to be handled quickly and accurately. He allowed Han Xuan to be a spy by Scorpion’s side for ten years. In her eyes, she felt that it was totally worthless. If it was her doing it, she would’ve asked Han Xuan to climb into Big Mastermind’s bed immediately. She just did not believe that Han Xuan would not have any rewards after sleeping with someone for ten years.
So they had different principles from one another from the beginning.
And as for facing Scorpion, his strategy did not work.
She had to be the one doing it.
If Ye Ziyi was really Scorpion, then was there anyone more suitable than her?
Hah.
Everything was left to happen in the past, and now, she had to be the one taking the lead.
…
Ah Chen left, and Leng Zhiyuan went down from the balcony and went into the room. At this moment, she heard the sound of a melodious ringtone .
This was not her phone that was ringing, but…it was Zhou Yao’s phone?
She glanced over at the counter. His black phone was really placed on the counter.
Why did he not bring his phone along with him when he went out?
Leng Zhiyuan had a look at the screen on his phone. Who was calling him?
There were two words jumping on the screen — Han Xuan.
She did not want to pick up. This was his personal phone. She did not have the right to answer the call.
But the ringtone rang and rang again. If she did not pick it up, Han Xuan would persist and keep calling him. It was just as if she was about to break the phone apart with her calls.
If she took his call, he would not be angry, right?
He dared to be angry?
Leng Zhiyuan took the phone and answered the call.
“Hello, Older Brother Zhou, you have finally answered my call.” Han Xuan’s grievanced and pitiful voice rang out from the other end, and she continued, “Older Brother Zhou, I know that Miss Leng’s death has been a big blow for you. You must be very sad, and it is very hard for you to accept it right now. You cannot give up. I am very worried about you… Older Brother Zhou, I want to let you know that you are not alone. You still have me. As long as you are willing to turn your head back, I am always behind you…”
Leng Zhiyuan was speechless. She imagined it. If she had really died, Han Xuan would behave like that, right? She was so eager to confess her feelings for Zhou Yao, and she hoped that Zhou Yao would turn his head back to look at her and be together with her?
Han Xuan’s goals were too lofty.
“Miss Han,” Leng Zhiyuan said calmly.
The other end froze immeidately, Leng Zhiyuan could even hear Han Xuan taking in a breath of cold air. That was not right. How could a dead person talk?
“You? Leng Zhiyuan? You are actually not dead?” Han Xuan said in shock.
“Hah, that’s right, Miss Han. It is me. I did not die. I am afraid that I have to disappoint you.”
“What is exactly going on?” Han Xuan froze for a moment before she quickly grasped what happened, “Both you and Older Brother Zhou were acting? Older Brother Zhou shot you just right?”
Han Xuan was a doctor, and she just had to think about it to understand.
“Yeah.” Leng Zhiyuan gave her a firm answer.
Han Xuan was extremely shocked before she became calm again. “Ha, haha! It turns out that this was the case…” She was extremely disappointed, then she laughed and said, “But so what if this is the case, Miss Leng, Older Brother Zhou is unwilling to accept my treatment, and the speed of this kind of poison spreading in Older Brother Zhou’s blood is extremely quick. If I am not there, he probably only has a week.”
One week…
Leng Zhiyuan listened on without saying anything.
Han Xuan continued, “When this kind of poison attacks, it is extremely painful. It is just like the photograph I sent you. Older Brother Zhou would be in more and more pain, and in the last week, it would feel that he is in hell. Miss Leng, don’t you love him? Could you want to look at him suffer like this. He is dying, and this is the love that you have for him?”
“Miss Han.” Leng Zhiyuan interrupted her words and said, “How about your love then?”
Han Xuan froze.
“Compared to anyone, you are the clearest about the pain that Zhou Yao is bearing. You have the means to save him, but you are not doing so. You are only willing to help only when he marries you. Is this the love that you are giving him?”
He told her about it?
Han Xuan on the other end turned her head away in a dilemma, and she said, “What rights do you have to be chiding me? Just to get him, both of us are doing the same thing.”
“No, I am not the same as you.”
“Hah, how are we different?”
“Just with the fact that he loves me, I would never be the same as you,” Leng Zhiyuan said slowly and gently.
Han Xuan’s eyes were all red. She controlled herself to the extreme and did not allow tears to fall. Leng Zhiyuan was showing off her victory for her to watch.
That was right. Could a person who wanted to love and a person who was loved be the same?
