Chapter 315: Recruiting Teammate
Jing Qian thought of how she had failed to escape from the shackles of the pervert in her previous life, when she was at her most powerful. Now that she had just been reborn, and because of her body’s condition, she was much more powerful than before.
But if she were to fight that man, she…
Would never be able to fight him!
Thank god that they were in Country Z and not anywhere else.
Country Z was a law-abiding country, not like those overseas countries, where you could just kill whoever and wherever you liked. In those countries, as long as you were loaded, even ghosts would listen to you.
Jing Qian looked at the man lying in his sick bed. She knew that this man was incredibly powerful, but one of his wings had been broken. As soon as he recovered, he would definitely have the power to help her fight Du Yanzheng.
Therefore, Jing Qian hugged Zhan Lichuan’s arm. This was the first time that she acted like a weak woman as she clung onto him. Her head gently rested on Zhan Lichuan’s shoulder, staring at him with her bright eyes.
This was the first time that Jing Qian was being so close to him, which was why Zhan Lichuan was confused.
He also felt flattered.
This little girl was just a rabbit with the look of a cunning fox. Such a soft person!
If he could just move his hand… Zhan Lichuan really wanted to touch the face that was leaning against his arm, just to know how it felt.
From the looks of it… It looked like chewy jelly.
“Ah Chuan, there’s something I have to tell you.”
Jing Qian was talking in a soft, gentle tone with the unique draggy tone that she always had, Zhan Lichuan had already decided to forgive her, even when he didn’t know what it was yet.
Wait- That wasn’t right. She hadn’t done anything that needed to be forgiven.
It should be that no matter what it was, he would always help her.
“Hmm,” Zhan Lichuan’s voice came out softly.
With Zhan Lichuan gently staring at her, Jing Qian finally decided to tell the truth.
“A while ago, I saved an old man at a Chinese Medicine Centre. I didn’t know that he was Du Yanzheng’s grandfather. He came by today to thank me and insisted on bringing me out for a meal. I already said that it wasn’t a big deal, but he was persistent about it, which was why I suggested that he could just pay me 6 million for it.
“I was thinking that if he knew that I was a gold digger, he would ignore me after paying me off. However, he gave me 66 million and told me that I have to share a meal with him no matter what.”
When she felt the chilly feeling that was coming from Zhan Lichuan, Jing Qian continued, “But… I’m a married woman. How could I be having a meal with him alone? Therefore, I decided to ignore him and rejected him. However, he said that he would be coming after me and mentioned that he was the heir of the Du family.
“I told him that since he was someone so powerful, he should know that I am a married woman, but he replied to me with a domineering smile. Then, he passed me his name card and told me that I would be his one day.
“He even said that he wasn’t just the heir to a wealthy family, he was still a powerful man, which meant that even if my husband is loaded, he would still be the more powerful one.”
The temperature in the room had already fallen beyond freezing point, but Jing Qian still continued with the pitiful act while complimenting herself.
“I threw away the name card and thought that everything would be over. I didn’t think that he would contact your ex and she would shamelessly come here today. I can promise you that he was the one who forced her here.”
At this moment, Zhan Lichuan was already entirely covered with a cold, murderous aura.
He had met Du Yanzheng and had several business deals with him.
It was impossible that he would have told Jing Qian that he was the Young Master of the Du family and was a rich, powerful person who could fight.
However, the one thing that was true here was that Du Yanzheng was interested in his wife.
