He finally believed Si Zhanbei's words. He finally believed that Si Zhanbei knew who ordered him to do this.
Now that his most important bargaining chip was gone, what could he offer in exchange?
"I'll give you two minutes to think about it."
Si Zhanbei said and started counting the time.
As time passed, Ceng Qing kept thinking about what he could offer in exchange for Si Zhanbei. After some thought, he finally came up with something.
Thus, when Si Zhanbei said that two minutes were up, Ceng Qing spoke, "I don't know if this counts as a bargaining chip."
"Tell me about it."
"You heard that there was a problem with the military supplies," Ceng Qing said, causing Si Zhanbei's expression to change slightly. There was indeed a problem with the military supplies this time. There were many inferior goods. They had been investigating, but they hadn't found anything.
"How did you know?" Si Zhanbei asked coldly while glaring at Ceng Qing.
"You don't need to know how I know. However, I have a piece of news for you. "Ceng Qing acted like he was negotiating with a client and kept Si Zhanbei guessing.
Unfortunately, Si Zhanbei was not Ceng Qing's client and did not fall for it. He said coldly, "Since Mister Ceng is unwilling to speak, then we'll stick to the previous conditions. I think you don't have to choose. One hand will do. "
Ceng Qing's face paled. He looked at Si Zhanbei and only came to his senses when he saw the seriousness and disdain in the latter's eyes. Si Zhanbei was not his client. Negotiating with a client was useless against Si Zhanbei.
This was because Ceng Qing realized that Si Zhanbei preferred to solve problems crudely and directly instead of talking.
"Now, Mister Ceng, do you still want to say half and leave a message?" Si Zhanbei looked at Ceng Qing with a faint smile. Playing this game in front of him, Ceng Qing must be tired of living.
"Alright, I'll speak!" Ceng Qing exchanged glances with Si Zhanbei and saw the seriousness in the latter's eyes. He clenched his teeth and said, "I'm good friends with Bai Hai. I heard him mention this once, and he also told me that he knows the person who provided you with the military supplies. "
Ceng Qing was indeed a sensible person. He did not feel any pressure betraying his good friend. He betrayed Bai Hai so easily.
If Bai Hai found out, would he regret saving Ceng Qing's life?
Si Zhanbei's eyes flickered as he thought to himself, 'Is it really related to those people over there?'
However, his expression did not show at all. He said, "What else did he say?"
"No, no more. I only told him this once when I was drinking with him. He was drunk, and that's why he told me this. "
After Ceng Qing finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and added, "But from what Bai Hai said, it seems like he's not the only one who knows him. There seems to be someone else."
"Very well, this information can offset some of your sins. However, since you injured my wife, shouldn't you take out some compensation? "
Ceng Qing almost vomited blood when he heard this. He had already betrayed Bai Hai, yet Si Zhanbei still wanted compensation?
"What, Mr. Zeng doesn't want to?" Si Zhanbei glanced at Ceng Qing and said, "If Mister Ceng is unwilling, then tax evasion …"
However, before Si Zhanbei could finish speaking, Ceng Qing immediately interrupted him. "Wait!"
"What else do you have to say, Mr. Ceng?" Si Zhanbei raised his brows slightly.
"I'm willing!" Ceng Qing's heart was bleeding when he uttered these three words.
He must have been extremely unlucky to have offended such a person. Not only was he forced to betray his friend, but he also had to bleed.
At this moment, Ceng Qing's intestines were green with regret.
