Jiang Yunzhu pushed up the frames of his glasses: "Mr. Zhou is joking. It is a rare opportunity for me to cooperate with the Zhou family. How can I find an excuse to leave Nancheng?"
At this time, the waiter came in to serve the food.
Jiang Yunzhu picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and put it on the table.
Zhou Cishen sat opposite him and watched the scene calmly, his expression not changing at all.
The waiter finished serving the food and was just about to leave when he accidentally touched the tea cup on the table. The tea flowed down and wet Jiang Yunzhu's suit jacket and shirt.
The waiter looked horrified: "Sorry sir, I..."
Jiang Yunzhu stood up quickly, took out two pieces of paper and cleaned them.
The waiter stood aside, almost frightened.
Zhou Cishen slowly looked at the waiter and said in a calm tone: "Why are you so careless?"
The waiter kept saying, "Sorry, sorry, sorry."
Jiang Yunzhu managed to maintain a smile: "It's okay, just pay attention next time."
With that said, he said to Zhou Cishen and Ruan Xingwan: "Mr. Zhou, Miss Ruan, let me go to the bathroom first."
The waiter said: "Sir, let me take you there."
Jiang Yunzhu nodded, raised his legs and left the private room.
Ruan Xingwan looked at Zhou Cishen, Jiang Yunzhu probably wanted to run away.
Zhou Cishen stood up and said, "You stay here, I'll go take a look."
Ruan Xingwan said: "Okay."
Ruan Xingwan was sitting in the private room. After a while, his phone vibrated. It was a call from Pei Shanshan.
Ruan Xingwan answered the call: "Shanshan, how come..."
"Do you want to know how your mother died?"
What came over the phone was Lin Zhian's voice.
Ruan Xingwan couldn't help but hold the phone tightly: "What did you do to Shanshan?"
Lin Zhi'an sneered: "If you want to know, come to the top floor.
If I see anyone other than you coming, just go downstairs to collect your friend's body and be back in five minutes."
After speaking, he hung up the phone directly.
Ruan Xingwan turned pale when he heard the busy signal from his cell phone. He quickly left the private room and took the elevator to the top floor.
It was raining hard now, and it was pitch black on the top floor. The only sound was the sound of water hitting the ground.
Ruan Xingwan rushed into the rain: "Shanshan, Shanshan!"
The only answer she received was the patter of rain.
"There's no need to look for her, she's not here."
Ruan Xingwan turned his head and saw Lin Zhi'an not far away. He gritted his teeth and said, "What did you do to her?"
Lin Zhi'an was holding an umbrella and wearing a peaked cap. Because he had been hiding in Tibet for several days, he was no longer as high-spirited as before, and even looked a little embarrassed.
He threw the phone on the ground casually: "Of course I sent her to reunite with Daniel underground."
Ruan Xingwan said: "You lied! You just extorted such a large amount of money today, it's impossible..."
"What is impossible? I believe you know better than me. You would never spend so much money to save someone who has nothing to do with you.
But it's different with you in my hands. Whether it's Lin, Lin Zhiyuan, or Zhou Cishen, they will be willing to pay any amount of money in exchange for your life!"
"Don't be delusional. Now that you've appeared, it's absolutely impossible for you to leave here today."
Lin Zhi'an said: "I am not the one who is delusional. Do you think Zhou Cishen will come to save you? He has already gone to save that little girl.
By the time he reacted, it was already too late."
When Ruan Xingwan heard this, she clutched her skirt tightly with her hands.
She understood that everything tonight was a trap.
Their real purpose was not Jiang Chuning at all, but her.
…
Meanwhile, downstairs.
After Jiang Yunzhu came out of the bathroom, he saw Zhou Cishen standing not far away. He smiled slightly and said, "Is there anything wrong with Mr. Zhou?"
Zhou Cishen said calmly: "I was wondering what your purpose was in taking Jiang Chuning away."
Jiang Yunzhu didn't deny it, just kept smiling: "Mr. Zhou is so smart, how could he not think of it."
"Even though Lin Zhi'an shamelessly proposed 50 billion US dollars, he knew in his heart that, not to mention whether Lin could collect so much money, it was absolutely impossible for him to get this money with just one Daniel.
Wan Bu said that even if he really got it, he would feel that there was some huge trap waiting for him."
Jiang Yunzhu smiled and said nothing.
Zhou Cishen continued: "Jiang Chuning is indeed a good bargaining chip. She can not only contain the entire Jiang family, but also involve me.
Something happened to her in Nancheng, and if I didn't save her, the Jiang family would turn their anger onto me.
But Lin Zhi'an didn't want to cause such a big trouble, he just wanted to take the money and leave."
"And you also know that Jiang Shanghan is in Nancheng, and every move you make will fall into his hands.
Therefore, your real target is not Jiang Chuning at all."
Jiang Yunzhudao: "I don't understand what Mr. Zhou is talking about. Ning Ning is indeed just asleep. If Mr. Zhou still doesn't believe it, I can take you to see her. She is here."
Zhou Cishen took a step aside and motioned for him to lead the way.
When he arrived outside the room, Jiang Yunzhu opened the door and was stunned for a moment when he saw the scene inside.
Jiang Shanghan was sitting on the sofa, looking indifferent.
Jiang Chuning, on the other hand, was still lying quietly on the bed, sleeping as sweetly as she wanted.
He gently raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yunzhu: "Why, are you surprised to see me?"
Jiang Yun Zhudao: "After all, you have an engagement with Ning Ning, so it's normal for you to appear here."
After speaking, Jiang Yunzhu turned to Zhou Cishen and said, "Mr. Zhou, can you rest assured now?"
Zhou Cishen raised his eyebrows slightly, without commenting.
At this time, rapid footsteps were heard in the corridor.
Soon, Chen Bei appeared with Pei Shanshan.
Pei Shanshan probably ran over, her hair and clothes were wet, and she was panting violently.
Zhou Cishen said: "What happened?"
"I... I received a text message from Daniel an hour ago, saying that he was here and asked me to come alone. But after I got off the car, my bag and mobile phone were robbed. The more I think about it, the more wrong I am...
"
Zhou Cishen looked at Chen Bei: "Where is Ruan Xingwan."
"I just checked in the private room, Miss Ruan is not here."
Zhou Cishen pursed his thin lips slightly and focused his eyes on Jiang Yunzhu.
A smile reappeared on Jiang Yunzhu's face: "Why did Mr. Zhou leave Miss Ruan there alone? What should I do if something happens?"
Zhou Cishen's expression didn't change much, he just said: "Are you so sure that something will happen to her?"
Hearing what he said, Jiang Yunzhu's expression stiffened for a moment.
He said: "Of course I don't want anything to happen to Miss Ruan, but I am just a little curious. Isn't Mr. Zhou curious as to why Miss Ruan is not in the private room?"
"Compared with this, I'm more curious about how you and Lin Zhian got on the same boat."
