He looked familiar.
But for a moment I couldn't remember where I had seen this person.
At the moment when he was distracted, the thin-waisted girl made way for him, turned sideways and nodded in his direction, then said to the person in front of her: "It's there."
Zhou Zheng saw the person whose body was mostly blocked by him in a blink of an eye, and blurted out: "Qiao, Qiao Nian?"
He gasped in surprise.
His eyes were still fixed on the girl who was about to enter the door in front of him. He never expected that the person who found him first and brought him here was... Qiao Nian.
Zhou Zheng looked at the girl walking towards him and felt inexplicably nervous. He didn't dare to sit on the chair anymore. He stood up and subconsciously took a step back.
"Are you his boss?"
This is not the point.
Zhou Zheng grasped the point, tried his best to control his emotions, swallowed his saliva, and tried not to look so nervous: "Why did you bring me here?"
"I have no grudges against you, Jing City. Did you find the wrong person?"
"laugh."
The girl walked up to him and stood still, with a casual look in her eyes and a disdainful click of the tongue, then dragged a chair over to the side and sat down in front of him.
She draped her arms lazily on the back of the chair and raised her head slightly, revealing her exquisite face under the brim of her hat, with a very dark look in her eyes.
"Where were you on the day Master Cheng got into trouble?"
boom!
Zhou Zheng’s brain was about to explode.
The color of his lips immediately faded, his face looked pale and bad, his shoulders trembled, his eyes swayed, and he still wanted to play dumb: "I don't understand."
He probably feels too guilty.
Without waiting for the girl to continue asking, he hurriedly distanced himself from the matter.
"It's true that Master Qi and I are friends, but I didn't get involved in Master Cheng's affairs. If you don't believe me, you can ask Master Qi." "Nie Qixing is dead, didn't you know?" Qiao Nian raised the corner of his eye.
Zhou Zheng's reaction was a little unnatural. He didn't dare to look her in the eye. He stood there uncomfortably and pretended to be stupid: "Master Qi is dead? How is that possible?"
Qiao Nian was too lazy to talk nonsense with him and exposed him mercilessly: "If you don't know, why have you been hiding for so many days and dare not show up? Aren't you afraid that Nie Qingru will settle the score with you?"
She even knows this?!
How would she know
Zhou Zheng suddenly raised his head, his eyebrows twitching wildly.
A layer of sticky sweat oozed out of his palms, and he didn't know what to say.
Qiao Nian looked at him with sharp eyes and said concisely: "So where were you on the day when Master Cheng got into trouble?"
"I..." Zhou Zheng's throat rolled, feeling dry and itchy inside.
He had been hiding from place to place during this period, couldn't sleep well at night, and didn't dare to think about what happened that day.
Now the things that I tried so hard to forget were put in front of me in this way.
Zhou Zheng was sweating profusely, but he couldn't say anything to justify himself.
He always felt that the other party had guessed everything!
He looked up at the girl who was one step away from him, then looked at Ye Wangchuan, Xiyaokong and others behind him, and listened to the ticking sounds of the instruments in the ward.
The psychological defense finally collapsed.
Zhou Zheng's shoulders trembled violently. He covered his face and said in a muffled voice, "I advised Master Qi! I kept telling him not to bother you. But he just wouldn't listen! He forced me to do things for him."
He regretted it.
He has been regretting it terribly since he received that mysterious phone call a few days ago.
If he had known earlier, he would not have taken the risk of clinging to some hidden family, and he would not have ended up like this if he had not helped Nie Qixing.
