Lu Zhi looked at her figure who didn't even turn his head, and finally called her: "Jian Jin."
The woman with her back to him did not look back, but she instinctively stopped for him.
Lu Zhi reached out and took the nameplate she placed on the table. His slender and beautiful fingertips touched the cold metal. He thought thoughtfully: "Are you disappointed in me?"
Jian Jin was silent again, and then said: "Others may not understand you, but I have known you for twenty years and I know the responsibility you bear."
Lu Zhi is different from her.
She can be willful and only represent herself.
Lu Zhi can't do it.
She remembered how Lu Zhi had "reconciled" with the hypocritical relatives of the Lu family for Tianchen's reputation.
Lu Zhi has his difficulties.
She didn't want to embarrass him.
"I'm not arguing with you because I want you to do the same as me and go against the hidden family for QIAO. I just think..."
She just felt that compared to everything Ye Wangchuan did for Qiao Nian at all costs, Lu Zhi might love her enough, but not as much as Ye Wangchuan.
Lu Zhi could never give someone an unreserved preference.
Jian Jin didn't say anything, she just shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Forget it, there's no point in talking about this."
She didn't even look at Lu Zhi's reaction. She insisted on turning her back to him, raised her hand and waved, as carefree as she was: "I'm going to help QIAO. As I said before, take care of yourself."
Lu Zhi's eyes were deep and no one could guess what he was thinking. He just watched Jian Jin disappear from his sight step by step until she was out of sight.
He leaned back on the wheelchair cushion, his handsome face dazed for a long time.
It was at this time that Nie Qingru called.
Lu Zhi looked at the incoming call on his phone and didn't reach out to answer it at first. When the call was about to be automatically hung up, he slowly reached out and picked up the phone.
"Speak." His tone was not very good.
Nie Qingru probably didn't expect him to take so long to answer the phone, and when he did, he spoke to her in this tone. She choked and said, "Did you take explosives?"
"Just say I'm hanging up." Lu Zhi was extremely cold.
Nie Qingru was probably angry. She paused for a few seconds, ignored his attitude, and said concisely: "I have asked someone to prepare it. What about you?"
Lu Zhi frowned and struggled for a moment.
Nie Qingru probably guessed his inner hesitation and reminded him in a cold voice: "If you want to get what you want, you have to rob it, otherwise you can only watch her from afar in this life. Are you willing to let Ye Wangchuan laugh for the rest of your life?"
"You'd better remember the conditions we agreed on before." Lu Zhi spoke at this moment, with a hoarse part in his voice.
Nie Qingru expected that he would agree, and said happily: "Of course. Even if you don't believe me, you should believe in yourself."
"You're right, I don't believe you." Lu Zhi did not hide his distrust and warned her coldly: "So you'd better remember where my bottom line is. The illegal area is my territory. As long as I want, even the queen of the hidden family can't think of leaving here!"
This is a very strong statement.
He doesn't give any face to his elder and superior.
Nie Qingru's face twitched after being contradicted, and she could no longer smile. She replied expressionlessly: "You have your bottom line, and I have mine too."
She didn't wait for Lu Zhi to answer.
He continued: "Don't worry, my ultimate goal is to find Xicheng, not to kill her."
**
One o'clock.
Qiao Nian finally locked down the identities of those people in the massive database.
