Chapter 242 The Truth
Chapter 242 The Truth (Two in One Chapter)
Wen Ran didn't say anything. He waited for the others to leave and closed the door. He quickly searched among the dishes with chopsticks and really found a small note.
She immediately held it in her hand and walked to the bathroom as if nothing had happened.
Wen Ran sat on the toilet, pulled off the plastic film, and unfolded the note.
It was Jiang Jichuan who wrote to her!
He said that he was cooperating with Eve Romanoff, and when Zhou Qixiao left the castle, they would transport her out via the dining car.
Zhou Qixiao's third half-sister
Wen Ran only knew this person and had zero other information about her.
But time is running out and she has to go out, so she can only take a big gamble.
After all, if she continues to be trapped here, she will go crazy sooner or later.
In the end, Zhou Qixiao and Zhou Qixiao hurt each other, and the ending was not much better.
Might as well give it a try.
Wen Ran looked at the bracelet on her hand, thought for a moment, took out a small hairpin and removed the locator inside.
The bracelet is a life-saving thing and must be worn, but the locator will not work.
Fortunately, Zhou Qixiao didn't put a locator on the bracelet to guard against her. The locator was installed on the outside and was easy to remove without damaging the structure of the bracelet.
After everything was done, Wen Ran started to eat big. If he wanted to escape, his physical strength must keep up!
His nose felt sore just as he ate.
How did she and Zhou Qixiao get to this point...
Maybe it was wrong from the beginning.
-Downstairs
, Zhou Qixiao was sitting on the bar and took a sip of wine. He couldn't help but cough lightly. He lowered his eyes and glanced at the palm of his hand that had just covered his mouth. It was stained with sporadic blood.
He casually pulled the paper towel on the bar, wiped his hands, and started drinking slowly again.
Although he couldn't get drunk, his slightly tipsy state made his heart less painful and allowed him to maintain his sanity.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the servant who had just delivered the meal to Wen Ran. Seeing that she was so frightened by him that she staggered, he looked away, sneered, and continued drinking as if he hadn't seen her.
It's almost over.
At this time, Xiaotu walked in quickly and said in a low voice: "Tina came from the hospital and insisted on meeting you."
Zhou Qixiao paused while holding the wine glass, then took another sip, suppressing the itchiness in his throat. He slowly spoke before speaking: "You want to tell me about Palai and Zhou Yuzhi."
Xiaobald nodded. He was not surprised at all that Zhou Qixiao guessed this. After all, he has always been a strategist and has strong control.
"No..." Zhou Qixiao originally didn't want to see her, but he changed his mind temporarily, "Go to the small study."
Tina's fatal injuries were mostly healed, but she was still very haggard, with sunken cheeks, and she needed a cane to walk.
He strenuously walked to the door of the small study room. When he saw Zhou Qixiao, he suddenly became excited: "Can I meet that child?"
Zhou Qixiao sat casually on the chair with his two long legs crossed. Hearing this, he sneered. "Why did it hurt your brain? I'm so stupid."
Tina was choked and turned pale, realizing that she had gone overboard.
She anxiously took out a small memory card from her pocket.
She had always hidden the memory card at home. Before coming to Grizzly Bear Country, she specifically asked Zhou Qixiao's people to get it for her.
"Although I don't know what happened back then, based on my understanding of Sui Ning, she would never have the heart to hurt you."
Zhou Qixiao's eyes were fixed on the small memory card, and his voice was very soft and full of emotion. With a strong sense of ridicule, "I have enough chips, so of course I don't count as anything."
The already blurry scene seemed to have been forcibly wiped away from the thick dust, and appeared clearly in front of him again.
When Palai was about to succeed to the throne, Zhou Yuzhi was kidnapped. In order not to affect Palai's becoming the queen, he went alone to rescue Zhou Yuzhi.
Originally, with his skill, it wouldn't be a problem to rescue Zhou Yuzhi.
But he didn't expect to be betrayed by Zhou Yuzhi, leading to him being caught.
The gang injected him with pain-amplifying drugs.
When he was numb from the pain, he stabbed him again.
The torture lasted from day to night for more than ten hours, without giving him a moment to breathe.
Every time the knife tip cuts through the flesh, the pain is infinitely magnified, as if it is carved into the bones, so that now the pain in the left arm is unbearable whenever the smell of blood is smelled.
A total of 39 knives is unforgettable.
Finally his left arm was bloody and bloody, and Pallet came.
I don’t know if it was a temporary bad taste of this group of robbers, or if they wanted to attack Palai from a spiritual level.
Let her choose a job between him and Zhou Yu.
Palai knew clearly that Zhou Yuzhi betrayed them, but she still chose Zhou Yuzhi.
And he...was left to die in a burning house.
It turns out that after Zhou Qi Xiao was hated by his father and abandoned by his mother, he had no hope for anyone.
But Palai pulled him out of the dead.
He was only 14 years old at the time, and his hopes that had not yet been completely extinguished were gradually rekindled by Palai.
But that night, Palai stabbed him most fatally.
He looked at Palai and Zhou Yuzhi leaving, and completely abandoned the last bit of trust in people in his heart.
The robbers then tied him up and threw him to the ground like a dead dog, and set the hut on fire.
After he escaped in embarrassment, he met General Ivan Kaleski of the Grizzly Bear Country.
Without him, his left arm would probably be useless.
So from then on, he became the sharp sword of the Grizzly Bear Country and penetrated into Nanzhou.
No more ego.
Thinking of this, my left arm seemed to start to hurt again.
He clenched his fists, but found that his arms were shaking.
The veins on the entire left arm bulge, causing the golden python tattoo to rise and fall, revealing a ferocity that is ready to rush out and bite its owner at any time.
Tina didn't know what happened back then, so she hesitated and couldn't say anything, so she could only quickly put the memory card in her hand on the table.
"Look at this first! Suining said... if the Zhou family collapses one day, they will never bother you again. She said... she will definitely be gone by then..."
Tina lowered her head, her eyes red. Holding back tears, he continued, "She asked me to give you this memory card. I hope you won't be trapped in the past and find your own happiness."
Although Zhou Qixiao did not respond, he did not let her take the things away.
Tina knew that he should be able to see, so after doing the last thing she needed to do, she turned around and walked out.
He hesitated and then stopped: "Master Ten, this is all a matter of the previous generation and has nothing to do with that child."
At this point, she finally couldn't help covering her face and crying.
"Before Sui Ning died, he thought he could see Mian Mian. Even though it was difficult to speak, he was still as excited as a child. He propped himself up, put on makeup and changed clothes, and finally got an injection and stayed up until the evening.
But I still didn’t wait for her... She was obviously less than a hundred miles away... But I just didn’t wait...
Master Ten, for the sake of Suining saving you, please don’t embarrass this child. She has never had a mother to love her since she was a child. A poor man. "
Zhou Qixiao had closed her eyes long ago. He seemed to be impatient after listening to her chatter. He waved his right hand and motioned for her to get out.
Tina wiped her tears. She had no power and could not change anything. She could only turn around and leave. After
the study door was closed for a while, Zhou Qixiao slowly opened his eyes.
His face was so pale that he looked sickly.
Without the anesthesia of alcohol, the pain in his shoulders and chest slowly pursed
. After a while, he stood up with his big hands on the table. He picked up the memory card, put it on the converter, and put it on the wall in front of him.
A little embarrassed, the corner of his mouth suddenly rose, showing a warm and energetic smile.
"Xiao Shi, have you had a good meal?"
After hearing this, Zhou Qixiao laughed disdainfully, but the smile on his face disappeared in an instant. The little girl also likes to smile like this, but it's a
pity that she hasn't smiled at him for a long time.
But...
thinking of this, Zhou Qixiao leaned back on the chair casually .
On the armrest, the loose cinnabar bracelet hung down, and he kept turning it.
In fact, this was an unconscious movement of his restlessness.
"Xiao Shi, I know that no matter what the reason was, we had already left you behind. Irreparable harm has been done to you.
I am telling you the truth not to ask for your forgiveness, but because you have the right to know the truth.
The smile on Palai's face gradually became lonely, "Hate is also a kind of self-depletion. I hope you can move on from the past after knowing the truth.
"
Forgetting us is the best punishment for us. "
At this point, she raised her head and said, "My brother didn't betray you back then. "
My brother is talking about Zhou Yuzhi.
Zhou Yuzhi was the first "dog" adopted by Zhou Que to help him conquer the world, but he didn't expect that he and Palai fell in love. In order not to expose Zhou Yuzhi, Palai always called him brother.
"I just found out recently that the person who kidnapped him was Zhou Yanli, so I recorded this video today to keep the truth.
At the beginning, Zhou Yanli saw that you would definitely have a place in the Zhou family in the future, and the relationship between you and me was unbreakable, so you would become a big trouble for him.
Killing you will easily make him a target of public criticism, so he carefully set up this situation to sow discord between you, me and my brother, hoping to reap the benefits.
You should understand your brother's character. He will not betray us even if he dies, but... Zhou Yanli takes Mianmian as a hostage. Brother, he can only follow Zhou Yanli's planned words to anger you and pretend to betray us.
Mianmian is my brother and I's child, named Wen Ran. She was born prematurely when I was an exchange student in China.
I'm sorry that I even hid this from you.
Because I really didn’t want her to fall into the abyss of the Zhou family, but I didn’t expect that Zhou Yanli would find out.
Xiao Shi, I can't watch my child die, so I'm sorry, really sorry, that I gave up on you at that time. "
At this point, Palai covered her face and couldn't help crying.
After a while, she raised her head with red eyes.
"Whether you believe it or not, what I want is that if you really die, I will take I will pay you with my life.
Later, when I found out that you survived, I thought, why not let you hate us, and then stay away from the Zhou family, and don't be implicated by the small kindness I once had.
Then I arranged for my brother and Mianmian to fake their deaths and let them live in China..."
At this time, Palai slowly raised the photo in his hand.
Then he showed a light and gentle smile.
The photo was of a teenage girl .
, with a ponytail and a smile as bright as a flower,
"Xiao Shi, this is Mianmian, my daughter. "
Zhou Qixiao laughed at himself.
Palai is still so naive, he is not afraid that he will know that his arm was injured because of Wen Ran, and
Palai in the video seeking revenge from her seemed to have guessed what Zhou Qixiao would be thinking.
She gently said He smiled and shook the photo in his hand,
"Because I know how gentle you are at heart. Xiao Shi, thank you for saving this child. "
Zhou Qixiao sneered, his eyebrows flying: "You're so gentle. "
After a while, he said to himself: "However, who is willing to hurt such a warm little girl..."
Zhou Qixiao glanced at Palai one last time.
He slowly raised his left arm with the golden python tattoo. The pain seemed to have slowed down a lot.
It turned out that his arm was to save Mianmian.
He suddenly raised the corner of his mouth and turned to look at the red and warm sun.
The pain that had tortured him for many years seemed to disappear. He slowly opened his fingers and turned into nothingness.
It was to save his little sun!
He smiled softly, showing a sense of joy.
It was a pity that Wen Ran was destined for him.
It's salvation.
But for Wen Ran, it's a disaster. Palai was still talking, but Zhou Qixiao didn't care.
Finally, the scene was frozen, leaving Palai's face full of tears and a smile.
He said the last words to her carelessly: "Palai, we don't owe each other any more, let's go!"
After a pause, he added softly: "I will also let Mianmian be free. "
Zhou Qixiao suddenly thought of something, got up and walked out.
As soon as he moved, he, who had always been strong, couldn't help coughing again.
-
Early the next morning, Wen Ran heard that Zhou Qixiao had gone abroad.
She knew that the opportunity had come, and indeed she gave him the opportunity yesterday. The maid who delivered the letter came in with a huge dining cart.
Wen Ran hid in the dining cart as planned.
But until she saw Jiang Jichuan in the car outside the castle, nothing happened to her.
Weird.
"Mianmian, are you okay?" Jiang Jichuan looked her up and down.
Wen Ran shook his head and hurriedly asked about Jiang Jiliu's situation.
"If I run away, Zhou..." When he saw Jiang Jiliu, he thought of Zhou Qixiao stepping on his legs mercilessly. Wen Ran didn't even want to mention this name now, "Will he embarrass Brother Jiliu?"
"So, we need to kill him. "
"Yeah!" Wen Ran's eyes were full of shock. Even if she hated everything Zhou Qixiao did, she still didn't hate him enough to want him to die.
Jiang Jichuan's face was solemn, "Mianmian, if Zhou Qixiao doesn't die, you will never be able to get rid of him. Don't worry, we don't have to do anything. Everything will be done by Eve Romanov.
You, you just need to stay in the monastery for one day. Tomorrow I will send you back to China, and you can apply for a return and withdrawal in time. Everything is..."
"You mean, let me be the bait." After Wen Ran said that, he turned around, opened the car door, and got out of the car.
But Jiang Jichuan grabbed his arm and couldn't move.
