Chapter 302 Working for Him

Chapter 302 Working for Him
Bian Yue had never seen Li Siheng cry so sincerely, almost like he was about to collapse.

Even though he tried to hide his collapse with a gentle and calm appearance, Bian Yue could still see that he was out of control at a glance.

Bian Yue looked directly into Li Siheng's eyes. She clutched the blanket tightly around her body and said firmly, without any sign of compromise, "Li Siheng, don't make me hate you."

The only light left in Li Siheng's eyes also completely disappeared.

He looked at Bian Yue and suddenly smiled. He said, "That's good. Hate lasts longer than love."

That night, at the Shen family manor.

Wen Jiao was sitting in the hall with an anxious expression. When he saw Shen Zhaoli come in, he hurried forward and asked, "What's going on?"

Shen Zhaoli shook his head and sighed, "Bai Xu hasn't woken up yet, but Zhuang Jie Ning's injuries aren't that serious. The doctor said she'll wake up soon. Right now, there's no clue to find Bian Yue's whereabouts, so we can only wait for Zhuang Jie Ning to wake up."

Wen Jiao's brows furrowed as she heard this. Her expression became increasingly serious as she pressed on, "Where's Shen Jinci? Where is he?"

"My brother has brought people to search Xiangjiang from top to bottom. Even Lu Zhinian and Xie Zhang have helped to find him, but for the time being, there is really no clue."

When Shen Zhaoli said this, he saw Wen Jiao's eyes were red with anxiety, and immediately softened his tone. He patted Wen Jiao's forehead and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's useless to worry."

As the two were talking, Kang Yu ran in from outside, saying nervously, "Young Master! Zhuang Jie Ning is awake!"

Wen Jiao and Shen Zhaoli looked at each other, and Shen Zhaoli said in a deep voice: "We will go there now, you contact my brother and ask him to come back immediately!"

In the villa of Shen's manor, Zhuang Jie Ning was lying on the bed with a weak expression. When she heard the door open, she looked over with anticipation.

But the person she was hoping for did not show up. Instead, the ones who appeared in front of her were Shen Zhaoli and Wen Jiao.

Zhuang Jie Ning pulled the corners of her lips and smiled coldly, "Long time no see, Miss Wen is getting more and more beautiful!"

Wen Jiao listened to Zhuang Jie Ning's sarcastic words and still wanted to find out her temper, so she had to retort.

But now, she looked at Zhuang Jie Ning silently and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Miss Zhuang, do you know the whereabouts of Bian Yue?"

Zhuang Jie Ning looked at Wen Jiao in surprise. She crossed her arms and said calmly, "It's really a miracle that you, Wen Jiao, can still be so talkative."

"Zhuang Jie Ning, tell us if you have any clues. Human lives are at stake! We can't delay any longer!" Shen Zhaoli said coldly, "Be more polite when speaking to Wen Jiao."

"You don't need to ask. I won't tell you anything until Shen Jinci comes." Zhuang Jie Ning smiled with a smug look on her face. "Bai Xu will definitely not wake up. He is too badly injured. It will be difficult for him to survive for a while. Now, I am the only one who knows what happened!"

Shen Zhaoli looked at Zhuang Jie Ning coldly, but Wen Jiao lowered his posture and said softly: "Miss Zhuang is right, don't worry, Shen Jinci will be here soon. I just hope that after you see him, you can tell us the clues about Bian Yue."

Zhuang Jie Ning pulled the corners of her lips together with a smug smile.

She felt relieved as if she had finally gotten rid of her anger.

There must be no news about Bian Yue at all, that's why Wen Jiao is so humble and fawning in front of him.

Zhuang Jie Ning thought about the anger she had suffered from Wen Jiao and Bian Yue before, and suddenly felt relieved.

And footsteps were heard at the door again, this time, it was Shen Jinci who came back.

He was wearing a dark suit, and under the light, his face was handsome, fair, and noble, but the hostility in his eyes was too strong, which made people tremble. Zhuang Jie Ning looked at Shen Jinci calmly, but her heart was uncontrollably agitated.

After so long, she finally had the chance to see Shen Jinci so closely again.

He was like a dream from her girlhood, and now, the chance for that dream to come true was right in front of her.

Zhuang Jiening stared at Shen Jinci's cold face and smiled, "Mr. Shen, please ask them all to leave. I want to talk to you alone."

Shen Jinci looked at Zhuang Jie Ning expressionlessly, "Zhao Li, you and Wen Jiao go out first."

"Okay." Shen Zhaoli frowned and looked at Zhuang Jie Ning, with obvious disgust in his eyes.

He withdrew his gaze, held Wen Jiao's shoulder, and walked out.

They were the only two people left in the room.

Zhuang Jie Ning raised her hand and tidied up the loose hair on her temples. She smiled gently, like a lady from a noble family, "Thank you, Mr. Shen, for saving me."

"Where is Bian Yue?" His voice was calm and extremely cold, making it impossible to hear any emotion in it.

Zhuang Jie Ning's eyes were red, and she whispered, "Mr. Shen, it's not that I didn't want to say it just now, but in front of Shen Zhaoli and Wen Jiao, I didn't know how to say it. Bianyue Bianyue she."

Shen Jinci slowly raised his eyes, the scarlet in his eyes filled with blood. He looked at Zhuang Jie Ning, his voice completely dropped to the freezing point, "What happened to Bian Yue?"

"Bian Yue was too angry." Zhuang Jie Ning covered her face and cried bitterly, "Bian Yue didn't have time to escape from her. She had already..."

"Shut up!" Shen Jinci's tone was full of anger. He walked quickly towards Zhuang Jie Ning and suddenly grabbed her neck, exerting force without mercy.

Zhuang Jie Ning's face flushed red. She looked at Shen Jinci in disbelief and tried hard to tear off his shackles. "Save me, Shen Jinci! Are you crazy?"

Just when Zhuang Jie Ning felt that she was going to die here, Shen Jinci finally let go of her hand. He let Zhuang Jie Ning lie on the bed, coughing heartbreakingly.

Zhuang Jie Ning was terrified and said in a trembling voice: "I am also a victim! Why did you do this to me!"

"Shen Shinian is dead." Shen Jinci suddenly said lightly.

Zhuang Jie Ning's brain went blank with a bang. She stared at Shen Jinci with wide eyes, "How could you kill someone?"

"He committed suicide. He chose to commit suicide before I went to find him." Shen Jinci narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhuang Jie Ning. "It's not me who wants him dead, it's the mastermind behind the scenes who wants him dead. You worked for him, but in the end you'll die too."

Zhuang Jie Ning felt cold all over, but the more she felt cold, the more she dared not say anything.

She lowered her eyes to hide her panic and said nothing.

"I don't know what benefit he gave you to let you cover up for him here, but Zhuang Jie Ning, I tell you responsibly, if you tell me the whereabouts of Bian Yue, I can save your life."

Zhuang Jie Ning's eyes were filled with fear. She asked with difficulty, "What if I don't tell you?"

"Then I will send you to death." Shen Jinci's tone remained calm. He smiled and said in a gentle and elegant manner, "Zhuang Jie Ning, I am not a soft-hearted person."

"It's really not that I don't want to say it. I'm also a victim." Zhuang Jie Ning looked at Shen Jinci nervously and tried to explain: "I know nothing."
