Being a villain in apocalyptic writing

"Strong emotions require constant mental support." Jiang Ye looked at him calmly, "I don't have that much energy to expend."

If she had kept holding on to such intense hatred for eight years, would she still be alive?

Wan Zhiming looked at her in surprise, then laughed out loud: "That's indeed your character."

Jiang Ye lowered his eyes and said nothing.

"But I still want to know the reason." After a few seconds of silence, Wan Zhiming said, "After all, I don't think I have done anything to let you down."

Jiang Ye glanced at him coldly.

Wan Zhiming chuckled: "Still can't tell?"

There was another period of silence, and then Jiang Ye suddenly took a deep breath and whispered, "Chemical plant."

Wan Zhiming was stunned: "What?"

"You were 24 years old. In order to prove yourself to your father, you invested in several chemical plants in succession." Jiang Ye raised his eyelids. "In the second year of the one in Yuncheng, they secretly simplified the sewage treatment process to save costs."

Wan Zhiming's face turned pale.

"That's my hometown." Jiang Ye looked at him calmly, "Do you know what diseases people will get if they stay in an environment with excessive pollution for a long time?"

Wan Zhiming's face turned even paleer, and he immediately understood the unfinished meaning of Jiang Ye's words.

"I didn't give such an order!" Wan Zhiming came back to his senses and immediately explained with a serious expression, "I didn't know they would do this."

Jiang Ye lowered his eyes and said calmly, "Yeah."

"You don't believe me?" Wan Zhiming asked.

Jiang Ye's knuckles moved slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

But when she raised her head again, the corners of her mouth actually curled up a little: "Chairman, there is no one else here, you don't have to act in a roundabout way."

Wan Zhiming was stunned.

Jiang Ye said: "You don't care whether I believe you or hate you. You just want to confirm how sincere I am in agreeing to cooperate with you."

Just like when he knew the reason for her hatred, he had no intention of asking for more details.

His first reaction was to distance himself from the matter.

The expression on Wan Zhiming's face froze for a moment, but soon disappeared completely, returning to calm: "As expected, after all these years, you are the only one who understands me best."

Jiang Ye looked at him coldly, without giving him a specific answer, and just said: "Words spoken are never reliable. No matter how much I say, you won't believe it. But you dare to talk to me about cooperation. Isn't it certain that I will not delay official business because of personal grudges?"

Wan Zhiming was stunned for a moment, then smiled as if relieved: "I have to seek peace of mind."

In his previous life, Jiang Ye worked for him for eight years and never made any mistakes. This is why when he wants to find someone for help, the first person he thinks of is always Jiang Ye.

Even though she had hatred in her heart, she was clear-headed on important matters and would never lose her composure.

"Jiang Ye." Wan Zhiming put away his smile and said solemnly, "We have all died once, and when we die, all debts are settled. No matter what happened in the past, from today on, I sincerely hope to become your partner again and work together to create a more glorious empire."

He stretched out his hand towards Jiang Ye, with some excitement in his eyes.

Jiang Ye raised her eyes indifferently, she looked at the hand that Wan Zhiming stretched out to her, pulled the corners of her mouth with a forced smile, and raised her hand to shake it.

Wan Zhiming had a satisfied smile on his face.

……

After finding out that Jiang Ye had no special abilities, Wan Zhiming was obviously relieved.

He personally sent Jiang Ye back to the Commander's Mansion, and considering that she had worked hard all day, he let her rest first.

Jiang Ye was naturally happy and leisurely. He turned around and pushed his wheelchair into the room without any intention of lingering or being respectful.

"City Lord, can she really be trusted?" Hu Jing, who had just returned from the clinic, frowned and asked when he saw this scene.

Wan Zhiming looked at the closed door, smiled silently, and then said softly: "It's not credible."

Ai Jiuwei and Hu Jing were both stunned.

Wan Zhiming turned and walked away, and the two hurriedly followed him.

After walking for a while, Wan Zhiming said calmly: "She is not a generous person. She has many secrets in her heart. I can't be completely sure of her thoughts. But she is a very sharp knife. If used in the right place, she can accomplish great things."

"Are you really going to hand over the power to her?" Hu Jing was a little worried. "I'm worried that she will cause more trouble. Didn't you also say that the recent unrest in Hai City is caused by her?"

"So I agree to keep both of you here." Wan Zhiming stopped and turned to look at the two of them with a deep gaze. "When I told you to follow her orders, I meant to act reasonably. If you find anything suspicious about her, you can take the initiative to detain her."

Hu Jing's eyes lit up, and he immediately responded, "Yes! I understand!"

Wan Zhiming hit him for a while with an ambiguous tone, and then said in a slightly cold voice: "Hu Jing."

Hu Jing was startled and a little nervous: "City Lord, please tell me."

"Don't think that you can manipulate her at will just because of what I said. I know you have your own little thoughts, but I advise you not to try to scheme against her and delay my big plan. I guarantee that you will end up in a miserable situation."

Hu Jing's expression changed slightly.

It was not only because of Wan Zhiming's words, but also because at this moment he could feel a cold sharp weapon against his neck.

Xue Jianbai is here!

A trace of fear flashed across his eyes, and his voice became more serious: "I understand."

"Be more careful recently and report to me every day." Wan Zhiming glanced at Ai Jiuwei.

"Yes." Ai Jiuwei immediately lowered her head and responded.

The autumn wind was getting colder, and Wan Zhiming waved his hand: "Okay, no need to see me off."

……

The room that Wan Zhiming prepared for Jiang Ye was very large and fully equipped.

Jiang Ye turned his wheelchair around and looked around, carefully checking every corner, then turned back to the table and poured himself a glass of water.

It was obviously brought here not long ago, and the water temperature was slightly scalding.

Jiang Ye put down the teacup, swiped the system screen with one hand, and reported to the white cat that he was safe.

The other party did not reply immediately, and Jiang Ye did not just sit there and wait. Instead, he took out a brown wooden box from the system space.

She opened the wooden box and found five pills inside.

Three red and two purple, the red and purple pills were placed next to each other, and they looked as if they were specially matched.

Jiang Ye took out the "lonely" red pill directly, then closed the wooden box and put the things into the system space again.

While turning off the light screen, she put the pill into her mouth and chewed it slowly.

A bitter taste spread, but Jiang Ye continued without changing her expression until all the pills dissolved in her mouth. Then she picked up the cup of water and drank it all.

She slowed down, then pushed her wheelchair to the bedside, waiting for the medicine to take effect.

This is what Luan Siyuan gave her.

The purple pill can suppress superpowers within three days, making all of a person's physical data appear to be at a level similar to that of a normal person.

The pills are non-toxic and will wear off in about three days after they start to work.

But if you need to restore your superpowers immediately, you must take the red pill, which can be considered an antidote with drawbacks.
