Lele had been with Le Zheng for so many years and knew Le Zheng's temper better than anyone else in the Liubei Chamber of Commerce. Of course, she knew it better than Ning Cheng.
She knew that once she fell into Le Zheng's hands, it wouldn't be as simple as death!
After all, she wasn't Le Zheng's biological daughter.
She was so flustered that she didn't know why she forced a smile. Perhaps she didn't want to show weakness in front of this man.
Ever since he entered the Liubei Chamber of Commerce and gained Le Zheng's recognition, she had been at odds with him. And from the moment Le Zheng wanted her to marry him, she had officially started fighting with him.
Although she was a woman, she had never lost to any man. Liubei Chamber of Commerce was full of men and many of them wanted to marry her, but she had trampled them all. Only this man in front of her didn't trample her back, but had trampled her several times.
This time, he had really trampled her underfoot. She admitted that she had lost, but so what? She didn't want him to see her as a joke!
"If you can't bear to, then marry me. Let's kill Le Zheng together and divide his treasures. How about that?" Shang'er asked with a smile.
Ning Cheng said, "It'll be more interesting to see your godfather when you wake up."
These words were like a lynching sentence for Shang'er. She was completely flustered and froze on the bed, unable to move.
Ning Cheng got up and called for the guards. Cold, he instructed, "Tie her up and send her to the boss's courtyard."
He had already walked to the door, but turned back to look.
It had to be said that at this moment, Shang'er, who had always been clear-headed, had an illusion that Ah Cheng seemed to be regretting it and was going to let her go.
Who knew that Ning Cheng would only say Cold, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you. Le Xiaoyao was burned by Ba Tu. Your assassin is surrounded by many people and probably won't be able to make it. "
After Ning Cheng finished speaking, he turned and left without hesitation. Shang'er was stunned and lost all her strength.
When Shang'er was escorted to Le Zheng's room by the guards, she saw Ah Cheng standing by the door, playing with two specially shaped keys in his hands.
She had already lost all her strength, but seeing this scene, she burned with anger and all her strength came back. She wanted to pounce on Ah Cheng and bite him.
Despicable!
Damn it!
The guards threw her to the ground. After a while, Le Zheng finally walked out.
Shang'er lowered her head, not daring to look at him. She knew that at this time, she could only be obedient. Otherwise, she would die even more miserably.
Le Zheng was as silent as he had been that night. The only difference was that there were no more tears in his eyes.
He looked down at Shang'er and asked Coldly, "Why?"
Shang'er remained silent.
"Lele, hasn't Old Man treated you well enough? Old Man can give you everything you want. Why are you doing this?! "Le Zheng said angrily.
Shang'er remained silent.
Le Zheng suddenly walked over and ruthlessly kicked her shoulder, causing her to fall to the ground.
"Ungrateful bastard! After so many years, the Old Man might as well raise a dog!"
Finally, this guy completely infuriated Shang'er.
She raised her head and said word by word, "Boss Le, adopting a child that you abducted is not called kindness, it's called hypocrisy!"
Le Zheng was shocked, "Lele, you …"
"I'm not called Lele! I'm called Shang'er! "Shang'er said angrily," I've seen all your slave contracts! "
Le Zheng looked at Shang'er, his eyes ferocious. He was silent for a long time before he finally said, "Then, you deserve to die!"
A complicated look flashed past Ning Cheng's eyes. Just as he was about to speak, Le Zheng said, "Steward Ma, I'll leave it to you!"
Shang'er was shocked. In an instant, cold sweat broke out and drenched her back.
Steward Ma was a notorious lecher in Liu Bei Chamber of Commerce. Any female death row prisoner who fell into his hands would be humiliated.
No …
Shang'er subconsciously looked at Ning Cheng. Her beautiful phoenix eyes were filled with fear and pleading.
Yes.
She hated him the most. But at this moment, she was begging him. She was begging him silently. She could only beg him.
Ning Cheng looked at her for a moment before he heartlessly looked away.
Shang'er's eyes immediately turned red.
She didn't know why, but she suddenly didn't panic. Instead, she felt terrible. Her heart felt like it was being pressed down by something. It was so uncomfortable that she couldn't breathe.
It was as if she couldn't accept it, and as if … she was disappointed.
Steward Ma was overjoyed. If not for Le Zheng's emotions, he would have laughed out loud.
Never in his wildest dreams did he think that he would one day get Miss Le! He could laugh even in his wildest dreams!
"Master, don't worry. Those who betray you, I will make sure they suffer a fate worse than death! "
Steward Ma strode forward, lifted Shang'er onto his shoulder and took her away. Shang'er looked up and saw Le Zheng turning to enter the house. She also saw Ah Cheng following him in.
She never cried. Even if it was an act, she wouldn't shed tears. But as soon as she saw Ning Cheng's figure disappear behind the door, bean-sized tears fell from her eyes without a sound …
Ning Cheng stayed in Le Zheng's room for a long time before he came out.
He slowly left Le Zheng's courtyard, but the moment he stepped out of the courtyard, he ran towards Steward Ma's house.
With a loud bang, he kicked open Steward Ma's door.
He saw Shang'er wrapped in the bedding like a frightened little beast, curled up in the bed. Housekeeper Ma had taken off his clothes and was only left with a pair of underpants. He stood in front of the bed, his whole body covered in scratches. It could be said that he was covered in cuts and bruises and was bleeding non-stop.
Ning Cheng was stunned …
When Steward Ma saw Ning Cheng enter, he was also stunned.
Ning Cheng immediately closed the door. Seeing this, Steward Ma was even more puzzled. "Master Cheng, you … do you have something else?"
Ning Cheng said, "Looks like a little wild cat. It's not easy to tame!"
Steward Ma was a smart person. When he heard Ning Cheng's words, he more or less guessed what Ning Cheng meant. He quickly put on his clothes and said with a smile, "Master Cheng, it's too fierce. I can't tame it. You should do it."
Before Ning Cheng could speak, Steward Ma said, "Don't worry. As long as that person is killed before sunrise tomorrow, Boss won't know anything."
Ning Cheng casually threw a key to Steward Ma and said in a low voice, "Half of Liubei's silver is yours."
Steward Ma was overwhelmed by the favor and didn't know what to say for a moment. He practically snatched the keys away from her.
This action let Ning Cheng know that his judgment was right. If he wanted to completely bribe this Steward Ma, it would definitely be dangerous if he didn't put in a lot of effort.
Steward Ma neatly dressed himself and went out. Meanwhile, Shang'er, who had witnessed the transaction, was still curled up motionlessly with a face full of fear.
Seeing her like that, Ning Cheng couldn't help but laugh mockingly. "I thought you had a lot of guts, but you're just like this."
Shang'er still didn't make a sound and looked at him in horror.
Ning Cheng leaned closer and was about to ask her if she had seen Jin Zi's file. Who knew that Shang'er would suddenly reach out and ruthlessly scratch a wound on the back of his hand.
Ning Cheng didn't expect this and retreated. He suddenly shouted, "Are you done pretending? If you don't want to die, then come down! "
Shang'er didn't move and stared at Ning Cheng with a face full of hatred. If her gaze was like a sharp arrow, Ning Cheng would be riddled with holes.
"I'll give you one last chance. If you don't come down and talk properly, I'll immediately call the one surnamed Ma back." Ning Cheng's patience was limited. This was the first time he was scratched by a woman.
The word "Ma" frightened Shang'er.
While staring at Ning Cheng, she carefully moved to the side of the bed and stretched out her feet. Her bare feet and ankles were especially beautiful.
Ning Cheng glanced at it and immediately looked away. After Shang'er got off the bed, he looked over again and was shocked.
Only then did he realize that Shang'er was completely naked. When she curled up, the small silk blanket could still cover her. When she stood up, it could only wrap around her body. Her slender legs and well-proportioned arms were all exposed.
Ning Cheng glanced to the side and saw the shredded robes on the ground.
His gaze lingered on the pile of clothes and he unconsciously frowned.
Suddenly, Shang'er scolded, "Ah Cheng, you bastard! If you have the guts to kill me, are you still a man? How can you humiliate me like this? "
"If you want to kill me, I won't complain. I've lost! But if you humiliate me like this, I'll look down on you! "
Ning Cheng turned to look and saw that Shang'er's face was already covered in tears.
He was in a daze and suddenly turned to leave.
Shang'er didn't dare to go out and could only wait. She sat for a while and rummaged through the drawers to find clothes. She found Butler Ma's clothes and changed into them.
She sat on the bed and waited for Ning Cheng.
Gradually, she calmed down.
She couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if Ning Cheng had been a step too late.
After a while, Ning Cheng came back with a bag of things and threw it at Shang'er's feet.
Shang'er glanced at him and asked, "What is it?"
Ning Cheng didn't say anything, so Shang'er kicked it open. When she saw what was inside, she almost screamed.
That … that … that was Butler Ma's head!
Ning Cheng lowered his head and was silent. He said mildly, "Sorry, I'm late. You can go. " Shang'er stood up and looked at Ning Cheng and then at the head on the ground. She suddenly understood and exclaimed, "Hey! You, you … you … "
"Go! We'll call it even in the future, "Ning Cheng said Coldly.
Shang'er rushed in front of him and pushed him, saying loudly, "I'm innocent! I wasn't … I'm innocent! You, you … you … do you understand? "
She didn't know how to explain.
Did this guy misunderstand that Butler Ma had really done something to her, so he chopped off Butler Ma's head as an apology?
Ning Cheng had indeed misunderstood.
He wanted to kill Shang'er, but he didn't want to humiliate a woman like this. He couldn't approve of Le Zheng's way of doing things. He wanted to save Shang'er from Butler Ma so that he could threaten her to reveal Jin Zi's identity. Since she had seen his identity, she must have seen Jin Zi.
He didn't expect Butler Ma to act so quickly! He had to admit that when he misunderstood that Shang'er was being bullied, he was at a loss.
Now, he looked at Shang'er and finally realized his impulsiveness. He would be in trouble if he killed Butler Ma.
Shang'er looked at Ning Cheng in disbelief and muttered, "Ah Cheng, tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to be a good person!"
Ning Cheng came back to his senses and exhaled. He couldn't be bothered to explain further and said Coldly, "Let me ask you a question."
Shang'er smiled. Her tears were still wet, but she smiled brightly and said, "I'll answer you if you promise to let me go."
