Chapter 718 - 718 Clean up
Zhan Cangqiong’s heart sank. This woman, Shen Hanxing, was a master at manipulating people’s hearts. She had forced him into such a situation. He had never suffered such grievances since he was fifteen years old. He should have felt humiliated and angry and wanted to tear her apart. He wanted to kill her now, but when she looked at him with those emotionless eyes and asked him, he felt as if his heart was being burned as he thought, “Damn it, this woman’s eyes were so wild! She was wild, rampant, and so domineering that she could stab people’s hearts.” He actually felt a little flattered by Shen Hanxing’s order. He was clearly the victim, and Shen Hanxing should be more afraid of being discovered. It would affect her public image and the judgment of the higher-ups, but when she lowered her eyes to look at him, he did not even think of threatening her.
“Do you think such a small matter is worthy of me doing it?” Zhan Cangqiong lifted his chin and said coldly, “are my subordinates useless if they can’t even take care of this?” After saying this, Zhan Cangqiong bit the tip of his tongue. His damned competitive spirit! That was crazy! Wasn’t that the same as obeying Shen Hanxing’s order?
Shen Hanxing was not surprised by Zhan Cangqiong agreeing with her. She nodded and picked up her handbag. “Then I won’t disturb you anymore. Goodbye.” With that, she turned around and left.
“Wait,” Shen Sisi’s eyes widened, and she took a step forward. Shen Hanxing turned around to look at her. Shen Sisi met her cold gaze and stuttered, “Y-You’re leaving just like that? You just hurt someone with a knife. What you’re doing is illegal…” Stabbing someone with a knife was not a small matter in the country. Shen Sisi, who was used to a peaceful life, immediately thought that Shen Hanxing had broken the law, and she couldn’t help but feel a little excited. If the news of Shen Hanxing attacking someone with a knife got out, wouldn’t her image be ruined? That was simply a great opportunity given to her!
Shen Sisi’s eyes sparkled. She was so excited that she wanted to grab Shen Hanxing’s hand. “No, you can’t leave. This matter isn’t over yet. Let’s go… ”
“Shut up!” Before Shen Sisi could finish her sentence, a hostile voice exploded in her ears. Shen Sisi looked over in disbelief. The person who stopped her was Zhan Cangqiong!
Zhan Cangqiong’s face was dark, and his eyes, which had always been evil, were now staring at Shen Sisi. There was a dangerous air flowing in his eyes. “Let her go,” He was the one who was not as good as Shen Hanxing and had been subdued by her. If he still had to seek justice from the police in such a situation, how would he live in the future? Furthermore, the Zhan family was asking for help from the police? It was simply a joke. If such a thing were to spread back, would he still have any reputation left?
Shen Sisi’s eyes instantly turned red, and she said to Zhan Cangqiong in a choked voice, “Why are you shouting at me? I just wanted to help you. You lost so much blood…” Her voice grew smaller and smaller under Zhan Cangqiong’s gaze. When she received the picture of the man who had died in prison, she knew that Zhan Cangqiong was very dangerous and scary. But when he faced her, although he was demonic and wild, he still lazily teased her. He was particularly tolerant and indulgent towards her. No matter what she did, he was never angry. He would even take the initiative to help her when she was in trouble. He was very kind to her. In Shen Sisi’s heart, Zhan Cangqiong had long been won by her. He had always tried to please her, but this was the first time she had seen such a dangerous expression on Zhan Cangqiong’s face. She felt a little scared. The photo of the man after his death flashed in front of her eyes. It was so silent that Shen Sisi couldn’t help but tremble in fear.
“Shen Sisi is insensible, Mrs. Ji. Please don’t take it to heart,” Zhan Cangqiong did not have the time to comfort Shen Sisi. He turned to Shen Hanxing and gave her a devilish smile. “Mrs. Ji, please feel free to leave.”
Shen Hanxing glanced at them indifferently, then turned around and left. She couldn’t be bothered to care about these two people’s affairs.
Zhan Cangqiong was still kneeling on the ground when Shen Hanxing was far away. He seemed to be thinking about something. The cold aura around him seemed to have merged with the dark environment.
