Fan Zhuo looked calmly at Gongcheng Lei. When Jun Xie had discovered that someone had drugged his food, although he and his elder brother had felt that something was amiss, no one had ever suspected Gongcheng Lei. Fan Qi had once saved Gongcheng Lei's life and from a young age, Gongcheng Lei had followed at his father's side. Over the years, Gongcheng Lei had been loyal and devoted to his father and even as astute and astute as Fan Zhuo had never suspected Gongcheng Lei.
If he had not met Ah Jing again, if Ah Jing had not seen the expression on Gongcheng Lei's face at that time, perhaps Fan Zhuo would still have regarded him as his own uncle.
But now …
The corners of Fan Zhuo's mouth curled into a smile. That warm smile was as gentle as the moonlight, making it impossible for anyone to dislike it.
"What did Uncle Gong see?"
Gongcheng Lei's entire body tensed up as he looked at Fan Zhuo. He had thought that the matter would be over and done with, and he had nothing to do with it. But he had not expected that Ning Rui would push the blame onto him again. Riding a tiger, it was hard to get off. He could only bite the bullet and say: "That day, I was standing guard outside the door when I heard the Headmaster and the Elder Young Master arguing. I had thought that there was some kind of conflict between the two and did not pay much attention to it. It was not until I smelled the scent of blood that I realized that something was amiss. When I went in, the Headmaster was already dead and the Elder Young Master was standing in the middle of the room with a bloodied sword in his hand ….."
Fan Zhuo was still smiling.
"Uncle Gong, how long have you been with father?"
Gongcheng Lei was slightly taken aback and then hesitantly said: "It's been more than ten years ….."
"It's been more than ten years. I remember that there was no Big Brother and I back then. Before Father got married, you were already by Father's side." Fan Zhuo seemed to be recalling something.
Gongcheng Lei did not answer, but felt his hands and feet turn cold.
"I had always thought that Uncle Gong was loyal and devoted to Father, but now that I think about it, it seems that my ability to judge people is not very good." Fan Zhuo suddenly sighed.
Gongcheng Lei's heart skipped a beat and he quickly turned to look at Ning Rui. Ning Rui's brows were tightly furrowed together. He had a feeling that Fan Zhuo's return would be a huge blow to his plans.
"Xiao Zhuo, what are you talking about! Don't you know your Uncle Gong's character? He has followed your father for so many years, when has he ever had any rebellious thoughts? Even if you can't accept your big brother's actions, it's the truth. Even if you're sad, you can't invert right and wrong. " Ning Rui hurriedly spoke up. Fan Zhuo had revealed Fan Jin's true identity, and this had already caused the crime he had previously pinned on Fan Jin to become unstable. If this were to continue, anyone with the slightest bit of intelligence would be able to tell that there was something fishy going on.
Seeing that the team was about to set off, Ning Rui only hoped that things would end as soon as possible.
Fan Zhuo smiled as he looked at the pale-faced Ning Rui. He looked at the corners of Ning Rui's mouth twitching due to his nervousness and said unhurriedly: "Uncle Ning, are you saying that I'm distorting right from wrong? That's interesting. Uncle Gong said that there were only my big brother and father in the room. He had been guarding outside and no one came close. He only noticed it after father died. Is that right? "
Not knowing what Fan Zhuo wanted to do, Ning Rui could only nod.
Fan Zhuo laughed lightly and his slender figure turned slightly to face the setting sun. His eyes were half narrowed as he stared at the horse carriage parked before the gates of the Zephyr Academy, and his gentle voice rang out leisurely.
"Big brother, what do you think?"
Fan Zhuo's call of "Big Brother" was like a bolt of lightning that struck Ning Rui and Gongcheng Lei's hearts!
They stared nervously at the carriage. In this world, there was only one person who could make Fan Zhuo call big brother!
