âAs long as you tell me what happened back then, I can consider helping Zheng Zeyu avoid the death penalty and even let him go.â
âYou see ...â
Ma Shan really wanted to give himself a big slap when he heard that!
Why did she take things so hard just now and come to Zheng Zeyi for help?
Great, now he had shot himself in the foot!
âThis ...â Ma Shanâs expression was full of hesitation. Her eyes kept darting around, and she stammered for a long time without being able to speak.
Zheng ze saw through Ma Shanâs thoughts at a glance. He snorted in disdain and turned to leave.
Indeed, no matter how long it had been, Ma Shan had always been this kind of person!
He was not willing to pay any price to gain something for nothing.
She thought that if she just said a few nice words and gave in, the world would come running over and give her what she needed with both hands.
How could there be such a good thing in the world?
âHey, wait!â
Ma Shan was anxious when she saw Zheng ze turning around to leave. She quickly exclaimed.
âYou ... You should at least let me think about it!â
âHow can such a matter be decided so easily?!â
Would Ma Shan really agree to Zheng zeâs conditions?
Iâm afraid not. My current actions are just a temporary measure.
As long as she could keep Zheng Zeyi in check, she might be able to release Zheng Zeyu safely!
How could she hide her little scheme from Zheng Zeyi?
The contempt in his eyes grew as Zheng ze threw the business card with his private number on the ground.
âWhen youâve decided, come and find me!â
Zheng Zeyi had always been like this, not easily obliterating the fantasies of an ant.
Only when the dust had settled, and their stupidity was revealed to the public, could it be considered a true defeat.
â¦â¦
âYouâre back? How did he do it so quickly?â
When Zheng ze returned to the car, joesseâs concerned voice was heard.
âWhatâs there to talk about between her and me?â Zheng Zeyi shrugged his shoulders. He did not intend to tell Joes what they had just talked about.
âIâm not interested in her. Iâm back now. â
âOh!â
Joes nodded, not fully understanding. That was indeed the case, and there was probably nothing good coming from Ma Shanâs mouth.
Silence returned to the car, and Zheng Zeyi was lost in his own thoughts.
He would definitely investigate what had happened back then, but judging from Ma Shanâs expression, he probably wouldnât tell her the truth.
It seemed that he could only rely on himself to investigate.
â¦â¦
âPresident Zheng, Iâve investigated the matter you instructed me to do last time.â
Upon hearing this, Zheng zeâs spirit was lifted instantly, and a look of interest flashed across his eyes.
âCome on, tell me what you found out.â
Upon hearing this, a man in a suit and leather shoes lowered his head slightly, tidied up the documents, and reported in a low voice.
âThere arenât many clues left from the Zheng family incident. The people weâve found have either lost consciousness or died ...â
Zheng zeâs face darkened as his assistant reported.
âIs this the result of your investigation?â
âGulp!â The assistant was so frightened by Zheng Zeyi that he swallowed his saliva and his voice trembled.
âDonât worry, President Zheng. Although the work is very difficult, itâs not like weâre empty-handed ...â
âWeâve found the location of uncle li, who was working as the Zheng corporationâs butler at that time. According to the information, he has been working at the Zheng Corporation for at least 30 years. He might know about these things.â
After a long time, he finally found some useful information.
This time, Zheng zeâs tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed a little. Following that, he had an indescribable, strange feeling.
If he didnât remember wrongly, he had met this uncle li when he was young!
He was in charge of taking care of Ma Shan.
Why did he disappear?
Suddenly, a glint flashed across Zheng Zeyiâs eyes. He seemed to have realized something.
What if uncle Liâs departure was because of that incident back then?
At the thought of this, Zheng Zeyi could not hold back any longer. He grabbed the document in his assistantâs hand and ran to the address written on it.
After a few hours of travel, Zheng Zeyi arrived at an extremely remote villa. There were fallen leaves everywhere in the villa.
From the looks of it, no one should have lived here for a long time.
Would uncle li really live in such a place?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Zheng Zeyi knocked on the door of the villa with a âtryâ attitude.
âDong Dong Dong!â
âDong Dong Dong!â
There was still no movement in the villa after a few calls. Zheng Zeyi was a little disappointed.
It seemed that his information was wrong!
That was true! It had happened so many years ago, so it was normal to have no clues, right?
Just as Zheng Zeyi was about to leave in disappointment, a soft and broken voice was heard.
âYi ... Ya ...â
Zheng Zeyi turned around abruptly, and a look of excitement appeared on his face.
âUncle li? Is that you?â
âIâm Zeyi! Iâve come to find you this time because of that matter!â
As soon as he said that, Zheng Zeyi regretted it. He had been too anxious.
They hadnât seen each other for so many years, and the moment they met, they would question him. Not to mention getting an answer, they might even scare uncle li away.
Just as Zheng Zeyi had predicted, uncle li had really escaped.
âBang!â The door of the villa was closed again.
The moment the door was shut, Zheng Zeyi clearly saw half of Uncle Luâs face outside.
The memories of the past were once again ignited. Thatâs right, it was him. He was uncle li!
âUncle Li, I really didnât mean to disturb you!â
âAs long as I investigate this matter thoroughly, Iâll definitely not come looking for you again. On the contrary, Iâll also pay you a considerable sum of money.â
Zheng Zeyiâs anxious voice reverberated in the air as he kept calling out to the person in the villa.
Zheng Zeyi was only met with a long silence.
It was so quiet that Zheng Zeyi thought that the sound just now was an illusion.
Pursing his lips, Zheng Zeyi frowned and thought to himself.
It seemed that uncle li had made up his mind not to see him.
But, so what?
Uncle li was determined, but was he not?
âUncle li, if you donât agree to see me, Iâll guard your door and not leave!â
âIf I really canât do it, Iâll just kneel here. I donât believe you wonât come out of this villa forever!â
In fact, Zheng Zeyiâs simple words had already given uncle li a lot of pressure.
Who was Zheng Zeyi? He was the head of the Zheng clan.
He could earn millions every minute. If he stood in front of his house, wouldnât he be delaying his work?
ââ¦â¦â
Silence, still silence.
It seemed like it was time to test the patience of both sides.
