King Raiders Game
Chapter 060 [Late Night Visitor]
Wen Lanxuan and Zhong Xiao had also finished talking. When Arthur walked in, Wen Lanxuan saw that his face was not very good, so she stood up and greeted him: "Arthur, we have talked too long today, you are tired. Let's go back, tonight's I've already made a reservation."
Arthur nodded listlessly, Wen Lanxuan exchanged greetings with Zhong Xiao, and left.
It was almost evening, when Ye Sixiu sent Wen Lanxuan away and returned to the living room, he saw Zhong Xiao lying alone on the sofa with his eyes closed.
Hearing Ye Sixiu's voice, he closed his eyes and stretched out his hand: "Sixiu, bring my medicine."
Ye Sixiu stood still: "Are you having a headache again? The doctor told you not to rely too much on medicines. I'll put hot water on you and take a bath."
Zhong Xiao suddenly grabbed the glass and threw it at him fiercely, hissing and roaring: "Take it if you tell me!"
boom!
The glass exploded at Ye Sixiu's feet, and the broken glass flew everywhere.
Ye Sixiu still stood still, and his expression didn't change: "Even if you lose your temper, it's useless. The doctor believes that your illness is caused by your own anxiety and pressure, and you must get rid of the root cause of the mental illness. I have followed your instructions , turned down several calls from Master Zilin, and prevented you from meeting each other, but that alone is not enough."
Ever since Zhong Zilin was injured by Cheng Chi, he and Zhong Xiao had never met each other again.Zhong Xiao gave him 100 million cash as compensation to repay his fault. He was the one who beat to death and refused to apologize. Giving money was the only thing he was willing to do.
Fortunately, Zhong Zilin survived the catastrophe and did not leave any sequelae.But after that incident, Zhong Xiao suffered from severe headache and insomnia.
Zhong Zilin took the money, returned it several times but didn't return it, so he had to accept it.He also looked for Zhong Xiao, but Zhong Xiao told Ye Sixiu to keep Zhong Zilin out, so Zhong Zilin never knew about Zhong Xiao's situation and couldn't contact him.
Ye Sixiu has followed Zhong Xiao for many years, and he also knows his character and conduct. As long as Zhong Zilin is still under his nose, he will not live in peace.The two of them had to separate completely before they could end their mutual torment.
Seeing that Ye Sixiu was stubbornly refusing to take the medicine, Zhong Xiao stood up unsteadily and opened the drawer.He rummaged around, but Ye Sixiu had already hidden the medicine, and he found nothing, so he could only sit back downcastly.
Ye Sixiu asked someone to come over to clean up the broken glass as if nothing had happened, and asked, "Is the talk with Mrs. Wen going well? Ling Zheng seems to have put a lot of pressure on her recently."
Zhong Xiao was drinking tea. At this time, he had gradually calmed down. Ye Sixiu didn't make him irritable when he mentioned Ling Zheng. He just gritted his teeth in displeasure: "I know that bastard's plan. The brats are colluding and want to pry me off and take the position yourself!"
Ye Sixiu asked persuasively: "Aren't you going to do something decisive? Master Zilin's handle is in your hands. As long as you make up your mind to get rid of him, Ling Zheng's side has no basis at all."
Zhong Xiao didn't say a word.
He had always had this thought that Zhong Zilin was the source of all his rage and pain.
But he has never really dealt with cruelty. On the contrary, Zhong Zilin's injury by Cheng Chi made him restless, and his health deteriorated after suffering from headaches.Is he still too soft-hearted?There is no hope of any change in their relationship. They should kill him completely from the beginning to leave a quiet life for themselves.
He lowered his head and thought, sighed again, and stood up: "I'm going to meet Zilin."
Ye Sixiu was very surprised: "Aren't you afraid that you will fight as soon as you meet? What happened to Cheng Chi must have made him very angry."
Zhong Xiao said coldly: "I'll give him one last chance, if we still can't agree, I will completely abandon this half-brother."
Ye Sixiu nodded, hesitated and said, "...if you want to do something, I'm ready at any time."
In fact, he had already wooed Arthur, and for Zhong Xiao's side, he cut first and played later.But he believed that based on his understanding of Zhong Xiao, after this meeting, Zhong Xiao himself would take the initiative to be ruthless and take action.
***
On Zhong Zilin's side, he didn't know the situation of Zhong Zhai at all. After returning to work, his schedule was full all day long, which kept him busy.
At this time, the busy life makes him feel at ease, so that he has no time to think about Ling Zheng.Since leaving the hotel that day, the two have hardly seen each other again. Although they talked on the phone several times, they only talked about boring gossip.
The more we didn't see each other, the more Zhong Zilin didn't want to see Ling Zheng again, he felt embarrassed even connecting to his text messages and phone calls.
Today's announcement ended a bit late, and it was already dark when Zhong Zilin came out of the TV station tiredly.This side is closer to the villa dormitory where he and Bai Yanfei lived, so he let the car drive there directly, wanting to go back and take a good hot bath to relax.
As soon as I got in the car, the phone rang. It was Ling Zheng.
Zhong Zilin picked it up with some reluctance: "Hello."
Ling Zheng's voice over there was still smiling as always: "Is work over? Do you want to have a supper together?"
Zhong Zilin refused without thinking: "No, I'm so sleepy, I want to go home and sleep. Have you had a good chat with Aunt Xuan recently?"
"Everything is going well and I think she will make a sensible choice."
"That's good, I believe in your ability. I will probably be very busy this week, so I will contact you when I have time." Zhong Zilin wanted to hang up the phone while speaking, but Ling Zheng's sigh came from the other side: "Zilin , You said the same thing last week. Last week you said you would contact me when you were free, but there was no movement, so I called."
Zhong Zilin was absent-minded: "Oh, is that so? I forgot about it in a hurry. I don't remember what I said last week."
Ling Zheng's voice sounded a little helpless: "Last week, you also said that you would accompany me to socialize again when you have time, and introduce new investors to me, but there is no further information."
Zhong Zilin smiled bitterly: "Isn't there no chance? Don't be so anxious. My ability is also limited. If you really need an opportunity, I can also ask the company to find you a higher-level artist, and you can change at any time."
Ling Zheng sighed: "Zilin, are you going to drive me away? I won't change people, even if the contract expires. I won't change people. Where are you staying tonight? I'll come and see you."
Zhong Zilin was a little annoyed by him, and deliberately lied: "I'm in the studio, you can come if you want."
With that said, he hung up the phone.
On the other side of the phone, Ling Zheng was stunned for a while listening to the busy tone, then shook his head helplessly.
There was some noise around, he was in the conference room of an investment company, and now it was 15 minutes for the meeting to end, and many investors were on the phone or looking at materials.Wen Lanxuan set up this project for him. He originally wanted to call Zhong Zilin to tell Zhong Zilin the good news, but when he heard his sluggish voice just now, he immediately became depressed along with him.
When we parted ways last time at the hotel, Ling Zheng mentioned the marriage with the intention of comforting Zhong Zilin, but it seemed to have the opposite effect. He has been avoiding him since then, as if he was avoiding him.I thought it would get better by throwing him alone, but it didn't seem to have much effect.
Ling Zheng thought for a while, got up and picked up the folder, greeted the investment manager and left the conference room.
Tonight, he must see that kid.
He is like a hedgehog, if you leave him alone, he will only make himself tighter and tighter.
***
The car was speeding on the street at night, Zhong Zilin lay on his back to rest on the back seat, only felt that his eyes were sore and astringent, and his vision was a bit blurred.It was he who rejected Ling Zheng and even lied to him. He firmly believed that what he did was right, but there was always something stuck in his heart.
He will lose Ling Zheng one day, this is his own choice.
Whenever he thought of this, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart.
He thought he would never fall in love with anyone long ago, but it didn't seem to be the case.Why can't I let go of my already cold heart because of such a small matter?
The assistant driving the car saw him finish the call and asked politely: "Brother Zhong, do you want to confirm tomorrow's itinerary? There will be a grand ribbon-cutting event at [-] o'clock in the morning. It is a government-funded project, and you are called to participate. Can't be late."
Zhong Zilin closed his eyes and nodded: "I know, how is Tony's preparations going?"
"Brother Tony said that the major media and mercenary trolls have all been dealt with, and the draft and information have been sent out. As long as you find a suitable opportunity to break the news, you can be discredited in 3 minutes," the little assistant said, curiously asking: "Brother Zhong, what the hell are you doing? Why do you want to discredit you? Are you discussing this matter in meetings all day long?"
Zhong Zilin smiled: "Don't worry about children."
He has always wanted to settle the account of selling himself back then, and now should be a good time.
Over the years, he had heard a lot of gossip, and even before Arthur, there had been sporadic gossip about his past.The script has already been written, Tony plans to take the route of slapping his face and whitewashing, first pick an auspicious day to slander wildly, black and black broke the news with pictures and the truth, exposing Zhong Zilin's prostitution scandal ten years ago, and then he was slapped in the face by real fans The leaked picture is from P, Zhong Zilin's life experience ten years ago is a mystery because there is another hidden story.
As for the secret, Tony made up three stories, one was seriously ill, the other was kidnapped, and the third was a study tour abroad.At that time, the most suitable story will be selected according to the trend of public opinion. At present, being kidnapped has received the most favorable votes.
Because Zhong Zilin had wounds from Cheng Chi beating him, it would not be difficult to pretend to be the old wounds left by the kidnappers ten years ago.There are too many people guessing about his past, and the paper can't hold fire. Instead of being gossiped about the truth, it's better to brag and take the initiative by yourself, and fabricate a past that people believe to be true.
As for Ling Zheng, celebrity gossip doesn't have much impact on the investment circle.But Zhong Zilin hopes that Ling Zheng will dislike him because of this gossip, if Ling Zheng is willing to take the initiative to abandon him, he will feel better and feel less guilty.
There was nothing to say all the way, and when they returned to the dormitory of the villa, Zhong Zilin could see the lights on from a distance.
His heart skipped a beat, Bai Yanfei went on a business trip to film a movie, there shouldn't be anyone at home.Who is here?
Could it be Ling Zheng?
He has always played cards against common sense, and he is very cunning, and it is not impossible to predict his own movements in advance.Zhong Zilin was a little flustered, he asked his assistant to drive back, and he opened the door nervously.Ling Zheng is sometimes frighteningly clever, if it is really him, he doesn't know how to explain why he tricked him into appearing here.
However, it is not.
In the living room, seeing the long-lost familiar figure sitting on the sofa, Zhong Zilin felt his whole body go stiff.
It's Zhong Xiao.
Seeing Zhong Zilin's return, Zhong Xiao stood up slowly, and smiled coldly at him: "It's really late, I've been waiting here for a long time. It's very hard to entertain the benefactor every day, isn't it? It's no wonder that you work so hard. Wen Tingyu treats you like a cash cow, the house is so big that even I'm jealous."
Arthur nodded listlessly, Wen Lanxuan exchanged greetings with Zhong Xiao, and left.
It was almost evening, when Ye Sixiu sent Wen Lanxuan away and returned to the living room, he saw Zhong Xiao lying alone on the sofa with his eyes closed.
