Chapter 3326: I Tried to Persuade Young Master Qi, But He Didn’t Listen

He looked familiar.

However, Zhou Zheng couldn’t remember where he had seen this person before.

As he was distracted, Slim Waist Control made way for the young man. He turned around and pouted in his direction. Then, he said to the person before him, “Over there.”

At this moment, he saw the person who was blocked by him before. He blurted out, “Q-Qiao Nian?”

He gasped in surprise.

His eyes were fixed on the girl about to enter the ward. He didn’t expect that the person who found him first and brought him here was… Qiao Nian.

Zhou Zheng looked at the girl walking over and panicked for no reason. Not daring to remain sitting anymore, he stood up and subconsciously took a step back.

“You’re his boss?”

That was not the point.

Zhou Zheng grasped the main point and tried to control his emotions. He swallowed his saliva and tried not to look nervous.

“Why did you bring me here?

“I have no enmity with you people. Did you find the wrong person?”

“Tsk.”

The girl stopped in front of him and stood still. Her eyes were filled with disdain as she clicked her tongue. Then, she dragged a chair over and sat down.

Lazily resting her arm on the back of the chair, she raised her head slightly, revealing the exquisite face and dark eyes under the cap’s brim.

“Where were you on the day of Master Cheng’s accident?”

BOOM!

Zhou Zheng’s head was about to explode.

His face paled and his expression was terrible. His shoulders trembled and his eyes shook. However, he played dumb. “I don’t understand.”

He was probably too guilty.

Not waiting for the girl to ask, he anxiously distanced himself from the situation.

“Young Master Qi and I are indeed friends, but I didn’t participate in Master Cheng’s matters. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Young Master Qi.”

“Nie Qixing is already dead. Don’t you know?” Qiao Nian raised the corners of her eyes.

Zhou Zheng’s reaction was a little unnatural. He didn’t dare to look into her eyes. He stood there uneasily and pretended to be stupid. “Young Master Qi is dead? How is that possible?”

Qiao Nian couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath on him. She exposed him mercilessly. “If you didn’t know, why have you been hiding for the past few days? Weren’t you afraid that Nie Qingru would settle scores with you?”

She even knew about this?!

How did she know?

Zhou Zheng suddenly raised his head, his eyebrows twitching wildly.

Sticky sweat formed on his palm, and he did not know what to say.

Qiao Nian looked at him sharply and said concisely, “So, where were you on the day of Master Cheng’s accident?”

“I…” Zhou Zheng’s throat was dry and itchy.

During this period, he had been hiding at the hotel and could not sleep well at night. He didn’t dare to recall what had happened that day.

Now, the matter that he had tried his best to forget was forcefully placed in front of him in such a way.

Zhou Zheng was drenched in cold sweat, but he couldn’t say anything to quibble.

He had a feeling that the other party had already guessed everything!

He looked at the girl one step away, then at Ye Wangchuan, Slim Waist Control, and the others behind him. He listened to the beeping of the equipment in the ward.

His psychological defense finally collapsed.

Zhou Zheng’s shoulders trembled violently as he covered his face and said in a muffled tone, “I tried to persuade Young Master Qi! I kept telling him not to go after you, but he refused to listen! He insisted on forcing me to work for him.”

He regretted it.

When he received that mysterious call a few days ago, he regretted it to death.

If he had known, he wouldn’t have taken the risk to cling to the reclusive families. If he had not helped Nie Qixing, he wouldn’t have fallen into this state.
