The Bishop’s Plan

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chen Xiang’s chin was pinched and she was drugged. Even if she dug her throat and wanted to spit it out, it was useless. She quickly realized that she could not speak and could only let out some hoarse cries.

She splashed the water, wondering why she had ended up in this state. Wouldn’t the Church send someone to save her?

In her despair, she placed all her hopes on faith and began to pray with her hands clasped together, hoping that her faith would save her.

The Church had already discovered that Chen Xiang had lost contact with them. Furthermore, she had disappeared from the Zhao family’s banquet. This was not a simple matter.

Chen Xiang had intended to drug Zou Bai, so it was reasonable for her to be discovered.

“I didn’t expect her to be so useless. Even after giving her such a rare potion, she still couldn’t get it,” the bishop said in disdain.

The believer asked, “Could she have run away? Let’s go to her place to investigate again.”

“It’s useless. There’s no one there anymore. After her agent realized that Chen Xiang was missing, she immediately went to the embassy to get a new passport. She’s already in the United States.” The bishop sneered. “It seems that Chen Xiang was just scaring her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone to get a new passport at this time.”

In the past, he admired Chen Xiang’s ability to rely on others to achieve her wishes.

But now that Chen Xiang was crippled in Zou Bai’s hands, they could forget about saving her.

The disciple had also heard of Zou Bai’s reputation. He said worriedly, “Then will she give us up?” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I guess Zou Bai didn’t even interrogate her.” The bishop shook his head. “He’s a smart person. If he knows that we can let Chen Xiang come into contact with him, she definitely doesn’t know much. Even if she’s crippled, he won’t feel heartache. It’s not the first time we’ve used that potion. Sooner or later, he’ll know that Chen Xiang is a member of the church.”

This frightened the believer. He paced back and forth and said, “Then what should we do?”

“What are you panicking for? Even if he knows, so what? He can’t uproot us now. Let the people overseas cause some trouble during this period of time and divert his attention.” The bishop said.

If not for the fact that there was no one beside him, he really did not want to bring this disciple along. He was not as smart as the disciple who served him in the past at all. He would be so frightened if anything happened.

Unfortunately, that person had died at the hands of the Zou family. He could not find anyone to replace him for the time being.

If not for Zou Bai, their church would not have lost so many people. Almost all the high-level believers had died in his hands. They had yet to recover and could only slowly expand. They were no longer as glorious as before.

Thinking of this, the bishop gritted his teeth in hatred. One day, he would make Zou Bai pay the price.

He stretched out his hand and gestured for the believer to help him up. His nerves and tendons had been severed by the Zou family’s secret guards, so he could only rely on someone to help him walk.

“Get someone to send a message to Lin City. Make sure to keep a firm grip on the Zheng family. It’s best if their entire family joins the church. If there are any non-believers, increase the dosage of medicine and let them feel the wonders of the church.” He instructed.

The disciple nodded. “Zheng Fan of the Zheng family is already a loyal believer. Also, Old Madam Zheng believes in the church without a doubt.”

The bishop was still worried. “These two are not people who can really control the whole Zheng family. We have to make the Zheng family a knife in the hands of the Church. The kind that can kill anyone.”

“I understand. I’ll send a message later.” The disciple immediately instructed.

The plane set off from Beijing and arrived in Xiyun a few hours later. After unloading the betrothal gifts, they went straight to the Jiang family. The media waiting here hurriedly chased after them.

When the betrothal gifts were delivered to the Jiang family, Li Mei could not believe her eyes. Although she had expected the Zou family to send many things, they would not be too expensive.

After all, the Zou family usually did not have a luxurious style of doing things. It was good for their family to prepare a dowry on this basis. They had to have more dowry than betrothal gifts.

However, looking at the betrothal gifts that they had pulled over one cart after another, how much dowry did they have to prepare?

Wen Li walked in happily and grabbed Li Mei’s hand. “This day has finally arrived. It’s such a good thing that the two of us have become in-laws.”

Li Mei smiled and said, “Of course it’s a good thing, but you’ve sent too many things over.”

“There’s still a lot. I can’t wait to load a few more carts over.” Wen Li waved her hand. “An’an is a good girl who married my son. It’s not a lot. I think it’s too little.”

These words made people happy. Although Li Mei had agreed to marry the child to Zou Bai, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had been a problem since ancient times. An’an needed to manage it herself.

Now that Wen Li had expressed her love for An’an, she could rest assured.
