Wishful Things

Hearing the nonsense of the other party, Zhan Yunjiao's face turned red and white.

At this moment, she had no intention of exposing the other party's lie that she didn't know that the person she was going to deal with tonight was Xu Mingyi——

But one thing, the other party was right.

She really didn't expect Xu Mingyi to bring so many people here at first!

She asked someone to write in the letter that Xu Mingyi came to see him alone. She originally thought that no matter how thoughtful Xu Mingyi was, he would not be a match for so many people with one or two servant girls around him - but Xu Mingyi simply brought an elite team here!

Come to see an old friend who has "resurrected from the dead", how can she make the mistake of bringing so many people with her? ——What is she going to do?

Zhan Yunjiao couldn't figure out why the situation was so different from what she expected.

Could it be that Xu Mingyi didn't believe that the letter was written by her brother from the very beginning? Are you sure someone is going to kill her?

But Xu Mingyi has always been arrogant since he was a child, when did he become so vigilant!

Seeing her unwillingness, Xu Mingyi sneered.

Zhan Yunjiao has indeed successfully aroused her curiosity, she must come on this trip.

But she overestimated her friendship with Zhan Yunzhu.

No, to be precise, it's not an overestimation, it's a complete misjudgment.

It would be hell if a plan that was completely wrong in judgment could really succeed.

"Tell me, who are you working for?"

Although the hatred of some people in this world may be fermented because of a trivial matter, it is obvious that even if Zhan Yunjiao really has this kind of resentment towards her, she does not have the ability at all.

Even if all the plans tonight are clumsy and whimsical, there is no one in the group who can fight, but one hundred taels of silver should be indispensable - just the one squatting on the tree is a bit of food, but I'm afraid it's not right to talk about it without thirty or fifty taels.

Zhan Yunjiao's life must be difficult now, how could he spend all this money to revenge her?

Besides, money alone is not enough for this kind of thing. If she is a little girl who grew up in a scholarly family in the past, if she has no connections, where did she find them?

"Sister Xu, I really didn't mean to harm you! You and I grew up together, how could I do such a thing!" Zhan Yunjiao still has no intention of admitting it.

Xu Mingyi didn't bother to talk to her any more: "In that case, let's send him to the government."

If Zhan Yunjiao was the only one, she would not be afraid that the other party would not speak if she put in some effort and tricks.

But for such a large group of people, doing too cruelly would have a bad effect.

Besides, she was on the right side in this matter, and it was hard for someone to take the initiative to bully her. She took advantage of such a favor, and of course she had to make a big show of it.

Especially, she has vaguely guessed who is behind Zhan Yunjiao——

That being the case, there is no reason to end the matter secretly.

Anyway, if there is trouble, it is only natural to find the government.

"Sister Xu, I...I can't go to the government!" Zhan Yunjiao was completely panicked, and said with a pale face, "...my mother is still sick and has no one to take care of her. If I go to the government, she's afraid something will happen to her!"

"Until I find out that your mother was involved in this matter, I will order someone to take care of her—"

Zhan Yunjiao opened her mouth, shook her head, and said in a panic: "But...but if I am really sent to the government, my mother will definitely not be able to bear such a blow! She...the doctor said that her illness is the most unbearable...After my father and my brother had an accident, my mother's body collapsed. If even I...she will not be able to hold on!"

Saying that, she threw herself forward, kowtowed her head and said, "Sister Xu, I know I was wrong, please see for the sake of our good relationship between our two families and my late brother, please forgive me this time! Just save my mother!"

Xu Mingyi glanced at her, and said in a calm tone: "You have to be clear, if your mother really can't hold on, the person who killed her is not someone else, but her husband and children—"

When Zhan Qian helped the Xia family plan their Zhen Guogong, didn't he think about his wife and children?

Zhan Yunzhu came out of the yamen and gained a good name, turned around and threw himself into the river without even saying a word, and did he ever think about his mother and sister?

What Zhan Yunjiao does today is exactly the same as that of his father and brother - he can be regarded as a well-educated family.

My own family members don't protect themselves, but let the victim pity them. What kind of fallacies are in Zhan's family's mind all day long?

Zhan Yunjiao's figure froze for a moment, and the expression on her face was also frozen.

Was she trying to kill her mother?

She suddenly let out a strange smile between her lips and teeth, raised her eyes and looked at Xu Mingyi viciously: "Miss Xu from Zhen Guogong's mansion really does not hurt her back when standing and talking! If I have half of your luck, I won't be able to make it this far!"

People who have everything, of course don't understand her difficulties and struggles!

If everything went well for her, why would she do these things just to please Xia Xi?

Wu Chao frowned, and pulled Xu Mingyi to turn around.

"It's useless to ask more questions at this time, there is no need to talk to this kind of people—"

It's ridiculous to use your own dissatisfaction as an excuse to hurt others.

To judge whether a person's character is good or not, it has never been to look at how the person is going well, on the contrary, it is to look at how he will be when he is not going well——

Xu Mingyi was pulled by him, and as soon as he turned around, Zhu Xiu led someone forward and dragged Zhan Yunjiao up.

"No... I won't go to the government!" Zhan Yunjiao struggled desperately, her voice trembling and hoarse with horror: "You let me go, let me go! Ah——"

After a while, the shouting suddenly stopped.

Xu Mingyi looked back and thought it was Uncle Zhu who couldn't bear it and knocked him unconscious.

But Zhu Xiu said, "She passed out by herself."

Xu Mingyi was silent for a moment.

...Is it okay to make myself faint?

You don't even have the ability to bear this, and you still want to harm someone?

Zhu Xiu handed him over to his subordinates, and accompanied Xu Mingyi back to the wooden house for inspection.

Wu Chao looked at the scattered wooden doors and asked, "What is their specific purpose for deceiving you here tonight?"

Specific purpose?

Zhan Yunjiao fainted, I'm afraid I need to ask Uncle Yun this question.

Xu Mingyi looked at the middle-aged man who was pretending to be a young girl—Uncle Yun and Uncle Qin were both people who had been with her grandfather for many years. Although the two looked tough on the outside and soft on the outside, their straightforward and irritable temperaments were not too different.

"Uncle Yun, what happened after entering the forest?"

"One person led his subordinates into this wooden house. There was a man in a long gown inside the wooden house. It seemed that he wanted to pretend to be Mr. Zhan and lead his subordinates in. After the subordinates entered, someone immediately locked the door from the outside, and locked the subordinates and the man inside the house—"

Hearing that he stopped talking, Xu Mingyi asked: "And then?"

I always feel that the next thing is the key point.
