After closing the door, Xiao Zheng stood at the door for a long time before turning back.
When he arrived at the living room, Sofia was leisurely eating dinner. A talk show that was filled with violence and filth was playing on the television. Sophia giggled as she watched.
Xiao Zheng sat back down with a strange expression. He lit a cigarette and said, "Is this show funny?"
"Of course." Sophia took a sip of coffee and introduced the show. "A talk show that likes to mock the president and dignitaries. Everyone in America will like to watch it."
Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "In Hua Xia, no one dares to host such a show."
"The system is different. The lifestyle is different too. "Sophia smiled. "If you want to scold the leaders of your country, come to America."
"You want me to migrate?" Xiao Zheng asked meaningfully.
"Why not?" Sophia asked. "Tens of thousands of people migrate to America every year in Hua Xia. Will you be one more? "
Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "I don't like America."
"Why?" Sophia asked curiously. "Be it in Africa or Asia, how many people dream of getting a green card?"
"That's their dream, not mine," Xiao Zheng said, shaking his head. "Also, I don't think America is good. It looks more democratic and free. But at the end of the day, what does freedom and democracy have to do with the country? It's just about money. Rich people can be bosses everywhere. Poor people are cowards everywhere. You should have a deeper understanding of this than I do. "
"Do you like Hua Xia more, or do you like certain people staying in Hua Xia more?" Sophia asked with a subtle expression.
"What's the difference?" Xiao Zheng asked. "I like my own country. It will always include those people and those things."
Sophia smiled bitterly and said, "Indeed. I asked an idiotic question. "
Xiao Zheng raised his teacup and took a sip. He slowly retracted his gaze from the TV show and looked at Sophia. "I heard that something happened to your Fox Hunting again?"
Hearing this, Sophia raised her eyebrows and asked, "How did you know?"
"I also have a group of friends who specialize in intelligence." Xiao Zheng smiled. "They may not be as professional as you hunters, but they aren't idle either."
Sofia nodded. "Yes."
"And it's a group of people in charge of the Bei Mei Region." Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes and asked curiously. "I heard that apart from you, no one was spared?"
"Looks like your friend is no amateur than a fox hunter. You should know that this incident only happened a few days ago, "Sofia said with a smile.
Shaking his head, Xiao Zheng smiled. "I'm not concerned about whether my friends are professional or not. Instead, why did your subordinates all die in a single night? "
When Xiao Zheng heard the news, his first reaction was to find out who did it. His second worry was whether Sofia would be implicated in this matter.
"Their enemies are no less than yours. It's not strange for them to die, "Sofia said with an indifferent expression.
"But why did they all die in one night?" Xiao Zheng pursed his lips. "Didn't you receive any news at all?"
Sofia put down her bowl and chopsticks. She used a tissue to wipe the grease at the corner of her lips and smiled. "I remember telling you before. Although they are my subordinates in name, we aren't on good terms. Since that's the case, why should I care about their lives? Furthermore … "Sofia paused for a moment before she said with a smile. "Their deaths are actually a good thing for me. After all, I have full authority over the positions they vacated. "
Xiao Zheng's heart twitched. A look of guilt appeared on his face as he said softly, "I've wronged you."
"You're not the first person who has wronged me." Sofia smiled. "Of course, I won't be the last."
Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and said, "Then why did you go along with what I said back then? You clearly didn't make such arrangements. "
"If I refuted you, wouldn't that prove that you have no brains?" Sofia said meaningfully. "Going along with what you said would at least satisfy you in terms of intelligence."
Xiao Zheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Now, I only feel that I'm even more brainless …"
After a pause, Xiao Zheng asked again, "Then what if I overturn all my previous assumptions? Wouldn't the way you interact with me make it easier for them to suspect me? "
"How do we interact?" Sofia smiled. "Didn't I say it already? I'm using you, and I've gained their trust. As long as you're dead, I can officially become the new Fox Hunters' leader. "
Xiao Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head. He felt that Sofia was really stubborn. She clearly had no intention of killing him, but she had to pretend to be cold-blooded and heartless. However, on second thought, it was very likely that she was the one who plotted to kill her subordinates. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was cold-blooded and heartless.
"If you hadn't appeared, if I hadn't been close to you, my old employees wouldn't have trusted me so much, right?" Sofia shrugged and smiled like an unusually cunning old fox. "In fact, the Fox Hunters will definitely blame their deaths on you. And I — — will also carry out their thoughts. I will push all the blame onto you. "
"It sounds —" Xiao Zheng smiled bitterly. "You're indeed using me."
"That's why I don't have anything to worry about." Sofia smiled mysteriously. "I've always been scheming against you, and I've always been framing you. It's just that I haven't found a good enough opportunity to assassinate you. I think that in a situation where they've all failed, my success is still a failure. They have no right to judge. "
Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and pursed his lips. "In terms of tactics, you are indeed the most ruthless woman I've ever seen."
"Even more ruthless than Lin Huayin?" Sofia asked tentatively.
"She won't use her intelligence in this area." Xiao Zheng shook his head. "In the same situation, in terms of intelligence, you might not be able to beat her."
"I've never lost," Sofia said with narrowed eyes.
"Neither has she," Xiao Zheng said with certainty.
"Since it's a draw now, we'll have to see who will be the real winner in the future," Sofia said confidently. "I hope she won't disappoint me."
Xiao Zheng fell silent.
At this point in the conversation, no matter how Xiao Zheng answered, he would eventually offend someone. Since that was the case, why should he ask for trouble?
"It's been a busy day. You should rest." Sofia slowly stood up, a faint smile on her exquisite and beautiful face.
"I'll send you downstairs," Xiao Zheng said as he stood up.
"There's no need for that," Sofia rejected Xiao Zheng and said thought-provoking. "In fact, the two assistants I've arranged for you can help you with your work. In life, they will grant you whatever you ask for. You're welcome. "
