Chapter 2357
From the folds on his face, he was already fifty years old, but he was still in good spirits, his strong muscles made him look extraordinarily fit, and his eyes, which had seen a lot of fighting and bloodshed, were like a knife that wanted to cut me open.
A second before he completely approached me, Murong Zhuan took a step forward and added himself between us.
“Master Jin, the group’s business has nothing to do with her.” Murong Zhuan said.
Master Jin swept a sideways glance at him, his gaze instantly becoming stern and oppressive, and even though I was separated by a person, I couldn’t help but still feel a shock in my heart.
However, Murong Zhuan resisted this pressure and never moved out of the way.
This was obviously something Master Jin had not expected, and the way he looked at Murong Zhuan gradually mixed with a bit of scrutiny.
It was as if, all of a sudden, he didn’t recognize him.
A moment later, he raised his hand, smiling and patted Murong Zhuan on the shoulder, “Very good, Zhuan, you’ve given me a surprise.”
After saying that, he took a glass of wine and sat down on one side of the sofa, finishing the wine before casually placing the glass on the coffee table next to him.
He folded his legs, propped one hand on the arm of the sofa and rested the other recklessly on his lap, watching us with interest.
Perhaps I should say something at this moment, but Murong had instructed me not to speak unless it was necessary, so I had to play dumb.
After a short silence, Murong Zhuan spoke again, “Her being alive won’t change anything, but I can guarantee to double the group’s earnings for the next three years, just three years, Master Jin can afford to wait.”
Master Jin smiled intriguingly as he bit his lower lip at his words, seemingly holding powerful doubts about his words, and after a moment, his face suddenly went cold again, “You’re making a deal with me?”
Murong Zhuan lowered his voice, “I’m just being honest.”
Master Jin’s face was no longer able to see a trace of peace, the cloud between his eyebrows was thick with raging anger, his voice was harsh, “Doing your business well is your job, not the capital you use to threaten me, I told you that you can’t trust anyone in this world except yourself, but you’re tucking a definite. Time. bomb. You are simply digging your own grave!”
Murong Zhuan was speechless, standing still like a wooden stake.
This fixed… Time… Bomb. I don’t need to guess to know that I am talking about me, this point of self-knowledge is still clear to me.
Su Ran was not wrong at all, Murong Zhuan’s power in this group might be cut because of me.
Seeing his lack of reaction, Master Jin raised his chin towards the Zhongshan man next to him.
The Zhongshan man immediately signalled, passing a wink over to the bodyguard behind me, and in a moment, I was having my hands clamped down.
The man who approached me simply pulled out a wooden hammer that had already been loaded. He pulled out a loaded wooden hammer and aimed it at me and pulled the trigger.
I closed my eyes in a hurry and prepared for death.
I opened my eyes in a daze and saw that Murong was facing away from me, and blood was dripping out of his shoulder blade.
The visual impact of the fishy red blood moved me for a moment, but soon I was expecting the three bullets to kill him. The three bullets would have killed him.
This is the way of the wicked, Murong, when you hurt my family and friends, did you ever think that today would be the day.
I was so focused on his injuries that I looked up for a long time, only to be confronted by Murong Zhuan’s pained expression.
He seemed to have read my mind, his eyes full of resignation and aggression, but I was stubbornly unwilling to even deceive.
Finally, his body slowly collapsed to the ground and blood flowed everywhere.
Even so, Murong looked up at me stubbornly, the pain making all the veins on his face stand out, his eyes crawling with red blood, his appearance hideous and wretched.
“These three bullets… I’ll take them for her, and I’ll pretend that Shen Shu has already died, okay Master Jin?”
Chapter 2358
Murong Zhuan was always a talent, and Master Jin never wanted to really take his life, hating his iron, he told all his men to retreat, “Release them.”
Perhaps he was too lazy to look at his weak appearance and left the box directly in anger.
When he reached the door, he couldn’t help but stop again and dropped a sentence extremely coldly, “I’m disappointed in you.”
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Only when his footsteps disappeared outside the corridor did Murong Zhuan release his strength and suddenly fall to the ground in front of me.
If it weren’t for the bodyguards who rushed up to save him, I wouldn’t have hesitated to watch him die slowly.
Master Jin was obviously more rational than Murong Zhuan, and even though Murong Zhuan had called him a great disappointment, he still sent someone to escort the injured and unconscious Murong Zhuan and me back.
Of course, there was another possibility, fearing that Murong Zhuan would die at my hands.
If that was the case, it could only mean that they really knew me well.
After Murong Zhuan was injured, the man in the suit stayed at Fu’s house, stating that he would guard him every inch of the way, guarding against me more than Master Jin’s men.
This was just as well, and left me flat out a lot freer than I had been before.
The afternoon after I returned, I planned to go out on the pretext of going out for a break, to the same mall as before to have another chance encounter with the mysterious wife from before.
I put on some light makeup and hid the note I had prepared in the compartment of my backpack, and went straight downstairs.
When I bumped into the man in the suit at Murong’s door, he gave me a look with a special meaning.
He probably thought how could there be such a heartless woman in this world, how could she still have the heart to go out shopping when her boss was so badly hurt for her.
I simply ignored it and walked downstairs with aplomb.
I am not as good as Murong Zhuan in this matter of heartlessness, we are just each other.
With my previous experience, I went straight to the coffee shop when I entered the mall and sat there for the rest of the afternoon.
But apparently I wasn’t lucky enough today to wait until five o’clock, the cafe went through the dinner sign, still nothing, and finally had to buy the bill and leave.
I was walking through the mall with my head down, but I was blocked by someone and was about to turn around when they called my name, “Shu! It’s been a long time!”
It was Wang Ruoruo. After six years, she hadn’t changed much, except for the gentleness and contentment hidden between her eyebrows, and it seemed that Chen Xing had taken good care of her.
“Long time no see.” I greeted lightly, not intending to chat Avray, it was a special situation now, and anyone near me meant near danger.
“I have things to do, so I’ll leave now and we’ll have dinner together some other time.” With that, I was ready to leave.
However, Wang Ruoruo went straight up and hugged my arm, pulling me out with enthusiasm, “Don’t wait for another day, just today, I know a restaurant that must be to your liking, let’s eat together.”
“Ruo Ruo you let go of me first, let go of me first, Ruo Ruo, Ruo Ruo!” When I got on the lift, I finally blushed and shouted at her.
Wang Ruo Ruo didn’t react for a moment and let go of her hand, so I took advantage of the opportunity to break free from her, and the atmosphere in the lift became extremely awkward.
After a moment of silence, Wang Ruoruo took the initiative to apologize, “I’m sorry Sister Xiaoshu, I didn’t know you were in a bad mood.”
It was an evil fire on my part, not at her, in fact there was no need for her to apologize, “It’s okay, it’s nothing to do with you, it’s my own fault.”
The matter of Murong Zhuan did not reach Chen Xing’s side, many situations the couple was unaware of, now it was a kind of protection for them when they got stiff.
