Chen Zi has a jinxed mouth; whatever he says comes true.
In less than three minutes, all sorts of allegations began surfacing online.
The suspicion pointed directly at Cheng Guodong.
Cheng Guodong was speechless; do these people have brains? Believing everything they hear.
Cheng Guodong: [Please everyone, use your brains. This is a country of law; there are no hired killings. If there were, I’d already be in prison, not chatting online with you all.]
Chen Zi helplessly said, "Why did you intervene? It’s going to get messier!"
Cheng Guodong: "...Can you be less vocal?"
The words indeed came true!
[You have money, don’t you?]
[If you’re willing to pay, a bunch of terminal cancer patients would happily kill for you. They’re going to die anyway, so why not earn something for their families?]
[We have brains, we think, and we think thoroughly! What’s a lawful country to us? It’s because of outlaws like you! You capitalists, making money off the blood and flesh of ordinary people, you’re vampires!]
[Ha, I’d love to see you behind bars!]
[Justice will prevail; sinful capitalists, get ready to rot in jail!]
Cheng Guodong turned off his phone, his expression darker than the blank screen.
"These people, they’re clearly driven by jealousy of wealth! What’s it got to do with them?"
Chen Zi sighed: "Don’t get angry."
"Please, stop talking!" Cheng Guodong moved several meters away and covered his ears.
Chen Zi looked innocent: "..."
Little Taotie woke up, and in her blurry vision found her big brother, softly calling out, "Big brother~"
All of Cheng Guodong’s gloom and frustration disappeared; his furrowed brows relaxed as he approached and picked up his soft little sister, "Woke up?"
Little Taotie’s head rested on her brother’s shoulder, snuggling sweetly: "Still sleepy."
"Let’s go home, and continue sleeping there."
Watching them leave, Chen Zi finally reacted and rushed out, but they were already gone.
Outside, it was pitch black, not a single car in sight.
The Ancient Castle was in a remote area, equivalent to the wilderness; impossible to catch a cab.
Mo Haihao smiled teasingly: "Care to stay overnight?"
Facing Mo Haihao’s Yin Yang Eyes, Chen Zi trembled, his voice shaking: "No...no need."
Chen Zi dialed Shang Yang’s number, "Save me!"
Shang Yang jumped out of bed: "Brother Chen, what’s wrong? I heard that Cheng Guodong is ruthless, hiring killers, a thug! Brother Chen, you’re working under him, are you safe? Did you find out some secret, and he’s chasing you..."
Chen Zi looked at Mo Haihao: "Address?"
Mo Haihao smiled: "Can’t say."
Shang Yang: "Brother, what did you say?"
Chen Zi sighed: "Never mind, hanging up."
The call ended mercilessly!
Chen Zi looked at Mo Haihao: "What do you mean?"
Mo Haihao smiled: "Stay overnight."
Chen Zi muttered: "...Fine."
Chen Zi was invited by Mo Haihao to the top floor of the Ancient Castle, arriving at Shen Cang’s office.
The door opened and Mo Haihao turned to leave: "I’ll drop you here, you go in by yourself."
Chen Zi didn’t have time to stop him, glancing back at the dark stairs, then at the eerie automatic door, took a deep breath.
Taking the risk is like plunging a knife both ways.
He strode towards the office.
"Sit." Shen Cang invited him to sit.
Chen Zi nodded and sat down.
Shen Cang pushed over a cup of tea: "Want to chat?"
