The two bodyguards raised their hands together, and the one on the left said.
"We didn't stop you on purpose. It's really not convenient for Miss Adele to see you right now."
"What, she is taking a shower?"
"Well, that's not true."
"So you're sleeping?"
"Yeah, and no."
"So what important guests are you meeting?"
"This, this, can't be counted..."
"What is that? You two, stop hesitating and open the door for me!"
Zhou Ming raised the muzzle of his gun and threatened unceremoniously.
"Okay, since you insist."
The bodyguard on the right shrugged, took out a room card from his pocket and handed it over.
"Thanks."
Zhou Ming took the room card and swiped it on the door, and the door opened.
Then, Zhou Ming saw a scene that shocked his pupils.
bump!
Zhou Ming closed the door again, turned his head with a strange expression on his face, and looked at the two bodyguards who got up from the ground.
"Those two just now...were your colleagues?"
Zhou Ming remembered that when he first met Adele, there were four bodyguards around her, two black and two white.
The two bodyguards nodded.
"So you two also follow her..."
The two bodyguards looked at each other, smiled obscenely, gave Zhou Ming a look that every man could understand, and nodded again.
Thirty minutes later.
Adele was sitting on the sofa wrapped in a bath towel, with four neatly dressed bodyguards lined up behind her, two in black and two in white, matching perfectly.
"Mr. Zhang, don't you all do things regardless of the occasion?"
Adele wiped her hair with a towel and said in a bad tone.
"Uh, how about I leave first? I can come over after you finish your work." Zhou Ming said with a smile.
"No need! Let's talk about business directly. I hope you can really talk about 'business' with me!"
Adele wiped her hair with a towel and said angrily with her skin turning red.
"Of course." Zhou Ming said with a smile: "I want to ask Miss Adele, who do you think is most likely to pay to kill you? Or who will benefit the most from killing you?"
"You just came to ask me this?" Adele shook her head, "I have thought about this question for a long time, but I didn't get the answer."
"There are many people who like me, and there are also many who hate me. I can't think of anyone who would hate me so much that they would hire a killer to kill me, and I can't think of anyone who would benefit from my killing."
"Although my family is rich, my father is still physically strong and has an eldest brother who was groomed as his successor since childhood."
"Even if I were killed now, it would only make my family sad at most, and it would not have much impact on my family's business and wealth."
"Mr. Zhang, do you have anything else to ask?"
Zhou Ming nodded and asked: "Miss Adele, I remember you have an uncle, right?"
"Yes, he is my father's brother, but he is thirteen years younger than my father."
Adele answered truthfully, with a hint of anger in her tone: "You doubt my uncle? Impossible, he watched me grow up, and even you were recommended to me by your uncle. How could he hire a killer to kill you?" I?"
A smile appeared at the corner of Zhou Ming's mouth, and he said with a look of surprise: "Miss Adele, I just asked about your uncle. I didn't say that we suspected him. Your reaction seems a bit excessive, right?"
Adele was startled.
Zhou Ming's smile grew wider and he continued: "The tone of what you just said made me feel as if you had suspected your uncle all along and just avoided the answer from your heart, so you are so sensitive about it. Others will be punished just by mentioning it. Your rebuttal."
"Do you think what I said makes sense?"
Adele was silent.
Zhou Ming said slowly: "So, can we have a good talk?"
As he spoke, his eyes swept over the four bodyguards.
"Edmund, Cavell, you go out first."
Adele understood and said directly.
The four bodyguards were very obedient and did not hesitate at all to Adele's order. They walked out without even a word of dissuasion and even closed the door to the presidential suite.
When there were only two people left in the room, Adele seemed to relax a lot, and then did something that Zhou Ming did not expect.
She slowly untied the bath towel and threw it on the sofa aside. She stretched her arms on the back of the sofa, licked her crimson lips, and looked at Zhou Ming seductively and provocatively.
"I like to be honest with people, and I hope you can be honest with me."
Facing the infinite love, Zhou Ming remained calm: "No, I hide too many secrets, and I probably won't be able to be honest with anyone in this life. So let's talk about your uncle."
"Haha, really?" Adele's eyes swept over Zhou Ming.
"But you can't control my place." Zhou Ming nodded his head.
"Boring!" Adele carefully studied Zhou Ming's expression and movements and found that his expression was not fake, and she was immediately disappointed.
She crossed her legs, placed one leg on top of the other, retracted her arms, leaned her upper body forward, put her right elbow on her thigh, and supported her chin with her palm, blocking the two peaks.
This half-covered action is actually more charming and charming than the heroic posture just now.
She reached for the cigarette on the table and saw that Zhou Ming had no intention of lighting it for her, so she lit the slender lady's cigarette and took a deep breath.
"You are truly an ungentlemanly man!"
Exhaling a puff of smoke, Adele said with half annoyance and half smile.
"This is a matter of identity, not mine. If I change my identity, I will let you know what a true gentleman is."
Zhou Ming smiled indifferently.
"So can we officially get down to business?"
Adele took another deep drag on the cigarette, slowly exhaled the white smoke, and then finally spoke.
"This is a very unspeakable thing. Maybe you will find it incredible when you hear it, and you will also wonder why I would tell you such a thing without even saying a few words. Don't ask me.
I don’t know the answer, but I just saw you and wanted to tell you about it.”
"But you don't have to worry that I'm lying to you or have other intentions. Just when I finally can't hold back this secret and let out the accumulated emotions in my heart, you just happen to be the audience, because this involves me.
A scandal to the family's reputation."
Adele's calm words revealed a secret that almost made people jump in shock.
"A few months ago, I accidentally saw the secret relationship between the two of them. To be honest, I was really shocked at the time. I didn't expect it at all."
"I wished I didn't know about it countless times, but those shocking images lingered in my mind like the most stubborn computer virus."
"I'm not sure if they saw me that day, because they didn't show anything unusual afterwards."
"But I still think about it from time to time, reminding me of the twisted and disgusting truth."
In the faint smoke, Adele told her story. The half-unsmoked cigarette gradually burned out, leaving a long ash hanging precariously on the cigarette butt held between Adele's slender fingers.
After hearing this story, Zhou Ming was filled with regrets, but looking at Adele with a hint of sadness on her face, he finally swallowed all the words that came to his lips.
He only asked: "What impact do you think it will have on your family if this matter is exposed?"
"Influence?" Adele smiled bitterly: "Haha, of course the influence is great."
"The family honor has been damaged and the family's reputation has plummeted. I don't know how many people will ridicule us. Our competitors will never miss this great opportunity and report it in a big way, hoping that everyone in the world will know about this scandal."
"Dad will be so angry that he goes crazy. Brother...he never wants to see his father angry."
"If your father finds out about this, will your brother's inheritance rights be revoked?" Zhou Ming asked a sharp question.
Adele did not answer, but her depressed expression already told Zhou Ming the answer.
"So you actually had the answer in your mind from the beginning, right?" Zhou Ming asked softly.
Silence is still silence.
Zhou Ming smiled, also crossed his legs, and said slowly: "Miss Adele, you are really good at deceiving yourself and others. Do you think that by pretending not to know anything, you can pretend that everything has never happened?"
"Shut up!" Adele said with an angry look on her face.
Zhou Ming did not intend to let her go, and said to himself: "What are your plans? Let nature take its course? Give up on yourself? Is your promiscuity the last act of self-indulgence?"
"Stop talking!" Adele was excited and angrily threw the extinguished cigarette butt at Zhou Ming.
"Have you ever thought that your father actually knows about this?"
Zhou Ming flicked the cigarette butt that flew over into the ashtray on the table with a flick of his finger. His understatement made Adele stunned on the spot.
"You, what are you talking about?"
"I asked, is there a possibility that your father knows about this? No, it should be said that he is the culprit of all this?"
