Chapter 3289: It’s Too Late to Regret Now

At the same time.

In the presidential suite where Slim Waist Control was waiting outside, Zhou Zheng received a mysterious call and quickly walked back.

The presidential suite was large and luxuriously decorated. There were cashmere carpets everywhere. In a corner of the brown leather sofa, Nie Qixing sat in a wheelchair, thinking about something.

Zhou Zheng did not dare to look further. He walked over and lowered his head. “Young Master Qi, someone just called me and said that your sister is coming our way.”

“What?” Nie Qixing looked up at him.

Only then did Zhou Zheng notice that the swollen palm print on the left side of his face had not disappeared. It was obvious he had been slapped.

He did not dare to look further and immediately lowered his head. “… The Empress probably knows.”

He didn’t say it out loud.

However, he might as well have said it all.

What else could Nie Qingru know? She must know that they had hidden a woman here!

Zhou Zheng was afraid of being dragged in, so he gritted his teeth, braced himself, and raised his head. “Young Master Qi, why don’t… I mean, why don’t we hand her over to the Empress? She’s just a woman. There’s no need to go against the Empress for her. It’s not worth it.”

“What do you know?” Nie Qixing immediately said.

Zhou Zheng’s lips moved, but he didn’t dare to argue with him.

He really did not understand what Young Master Qi meant.

Could it be he still wanted to hide her with the Empress knocking on his door?

Zhou Zheng was still thinking about this when he heard Nie Qixing’s decision after a moment of silence. “Take her away and hide her. No matter who comes looking for you, you’re not allowed to hand her over. Do you understand?”

“Young Master Qi?” Zhou Zheng’s face was full of surprise and confusion. He did not understand why he had to hide her.

Nie Qixing did not explain. He lowered his voice and said seriously, “If you still want to live, do as I say!”

Zhou Zheng did not move.

He was surprised that Nie Qixing said “if you still want to live”. Was this matter that serious?

“Why aren’t you leaving?” Nie Qixing saw he was not moving and looked at him in frustration. He could tell he was fearful.

Nie Qixing took a deep breath and said as calmly as possible, “As long as you hide her well, nothing will happen.”

Zhou Zheng was like a gra.s.shopper tied to his s.h.i.+p. Even if he regretted it, it was impossible to get off the s.h.i.+p now. He could only grit his teeth and say, “Yes, I’ll immediately move her away.”

“Go.” Nie Qixing raised his hand, feeling mentally and physically exhausted.

Zhou Zheng took two steps before stopping and turning around. “Young Master Qi, I still don’t understand one thing. Why can’t we hand her over to the Empress? This is Continent M. Isn’t it better to hand her over to the Empress?”

Nie Qixing had been wondering who had tipped Zhou Zheng off. Hearing Zhou Zheng’s question, he looked over. However, he did not answer directly. He only said absent-mindedly, “You just need to know that if she sees that woman, she will definitely be furious. Under such circ.u.mstances, I might not die, but you… I can’t be sure.”

Zhou Zheng’s body stiffened, and a chill rose from the bottom of his feet. It was so cold that his teeth trembled. He looked at Nie Qixing with fear and regret!

He really regretted it!

Why did he want to curry favor with Nie Qixing back then?

If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have boarded this s.h.i.+p!

Now, he didn’t get any benefits and was about to lose his life!

…

With his life at stake, Zhou Zheng was still very efficient. He quickly moved the woman away before Nie Qingru arrived at the hotel.
