Chapter 3327: Sister Nian: Did You Think I Would Say That?

“Back then, he insisted that I attack Master Cheng. He even insisted that I go alone. He said it would be easily discovered if I hired someone.

“I rejected him and tried to persuade him. I couldn’t afford to offend him! You know he has the reclusive families’ backing. I had no choice.”

Qiao Nian calmly said, “So you stabbed Master Cheng when Luo Qing wasn’t around?”

Zhou Zheng looked up with red eyes and clenched his fists. After a few seconds, he lowered his head in resignation and answered, “Yes.”

Ever since Nie Qixing asked him to leave the hotel that day, he did not dare to show his face again, afraid that what he did would be exposed.

Later, he heard that Nie Qixing had died in an accident at the hospital.

His fear reached its peak.

Zhou Zheng was finally relieved after speaking. However, the relief was shrouded in fear, and he couldn’t feel much comfort in his heart.

“Where’s the woman who was with Nie Qixing? Where did you hide her?” Qiao Nian suddenly asked.

Zhou Zheng’s facial muscles trembled. He was stunned for a moment before his expression turned disdainful, mocking, and resentful. “She ran away a long time ago!

“I told her that Young Master Qi was in danger and that the people from the reclusive families were looking for her. Then, she followed me obediently before suddenly running away when I wasn’t paying attention.”

She ran away?

Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and looked at Ye w.a.n.gchuan. They could see something in each other’s eyes.

Logically speaking, these things had nothing to do with that person. Why did she run?

Zhou Zheng was indignant. “I originally wanted to look for her, but… you know my situation. If it weren’t for the fact that I didn’t dare to be too high-profile, I would have captured her long ago.”

Now, he didn’t know where that woman was hiding.

At the end of the day, it was still that woman who caused the trouble.

If he still had that woman when the reclusive families found him, he could always push her out. In the end, that woman was even more ruthless and cunning than him and ran away quickly.

“You now know that I was the one who harmed Master Cheng. What do you plan to do with me?” Zhou Zheng didn’t take it to heart about the woman running away. He was more concerned about his situation.

“You’ve spent so much effort to find me. You definitely won’t let me off easily…” He sounded certain, but, in fact, he still had a trace of hope in his heart.

He felt that since he had said so much, Qiao Nian might be soft-hearted and let him off.

After all, he had been forced from the beginning to the end. He had not wanted to hurt Master Cheng subjectively. Besides, Master Cheng wasn’t dead. Qiao Nian wouldn’t be too calculative with him, right?

“This has nothing much to do with you…” The girl’s voice was composed and casual.

Zhou Zheng’s heart pounded. His eyes suddenly widened, and the corners of his mouth were about to curl up.

Then, the corners of the girl’s mouth curled up. Her expression was unrestrained as she leaned lazily against the back of the chair, tapped her fingers on the armrest, and looked at him with narrow eyes. “Did you think I would say that?”

Zhou Zheng’s heart immediately dropped. He fell from heaven to h.e.l.l, and his face paled. “You…”

Qiao Nian was playing with him!

Unable to remain calm, he clenched his fists and growled in fear, “You’d better not do anything rash.”

He couldn’t afford to offend the reclusive families.

However, the Zhou family also knew many people in Beijing.

If Qiao Nian touched him…

Before Zhou Zheng could threaten her, Ye w.a.n.gchuan stared at him coldly, as if he was looking at trash.
