Chapter 724: Be alert and eliminate the evidence
"Zhuang Zhoucheng, why haven't you come back yet?"
Huo Yan sat on the sofa holding a pillow, his head resting on it and muttering as he rocked back and forth.
I sat on the sofa for the whole night and fell asleep in a daze in the second half of the night.
Maybe I didn't sleep well.
Huo Yan was dreaming, a confused and messy dream.
Zhuang Zhoucheng woke up at three in the morning and looked at the woman lying beside him.
boom--
My head exploded instantly, and I was blank for a long time before I slowly regained consciousness.
He immediately got out of bed, put on his clothes and left.
When he went out, he stopped again and his sharp eyes fell on the bottle of wine on the small bar.
He can drink a dozen bottles of wine, let alone a bottle, without getting drunk.
Zhuang Zhoucheng tried his best to suppress his emotions and force himself to remain calm.
It had happened, but he had to know what had happened.
When he reached the door, he turned back and walked to the bar, taking a closer look at the bottle. It was a 1996 red wine, which he had collected here. It was a newly opened bottle, so there would be no problem.
So what went wrong?
Zhuang Zhoucheng poured the scarlet transparent liquid into the wine glass and gently shook the glass to take a closer look.
Unfortunately, he didn't have a keen eye and couldn't tell what was wrong with the liquid.
Zhuang Zhoucheng was silent for a moment, then raised his head and drank the liquid in the cup.
"Are you awake?" A woman's voice sounded at the bedroom door.
Zhuang Zhoucheng put the wine glass into his sleeve and looked at her sideways.
Xu Jingxi leaned against the door in a seductive manner, looking at him tenderly with her long hair draped over her shoulders.
"Is what you said true?" Xu Jingxi asked in a low voice.
Zhuang Zhoucheng frowned slightly, his intuition telling him that there was a trap waiting for him.
"A smart woman shouldn't take seriously what a man says in bed." Zhuang Zhoucheng said indifferently.
Xu Jingxi gently lifted her hair and smiled gently and peacefully:
"Yes, the Third Master already has a wife. Last night, it was just a fleeting romance..."
As she spoke, two lines of tears streamed down her face. She turned her head slightly and wiped them away gently.
"Rest."
Zhuang Zhoucheng walked straight out.
"It's so late, can't we stay here?" Xu Jingxi said hurriedly, paused, and added:
"You've been drinking, it's unsafe to drive. You should stay here. I'll sleep in the living room and you can use the room. Something as ridiculous as last night will never happen again."
Zhuang Zhoucheng stood at the door, changed his shoes, glanced at Xu Jingxi, and lowered his voice:
"Before it happened, I didn't think it would happen either. I offended Miss Xu last night. Tomorrow I will transfer some money to your account as compensation. I'm sorry, Zhuang can't do anything else."
"Zhou Cheng!"
Xu Jingxi ran over quickly and in a hurry hugged the man who had already left from behind.
"I did it for you..."
Xu Jingxi took a breath, held back her words for a long time, and asked:
"Are you really so heartless? We've known each other for over ten years. Even if we weren't deeply in love, we were engaged for eight years. We were even close to discussing marriage, and there were times when our relationship was very good. Are you really going to write off our past feelings just because I broke off the engagement? I had my reasons for breaking off the engagement, don't you know that?"
Rong Hancheng pulled Xu Jingxi's hands apart coldly:
"Ms. Xu, I'm a married man, please respect yourself!"
I pity you, but I don’t need this condition to do whatever I want to those who pity you.
Zhuang Zhoucheng took a few steps and said:
"What should we do? Someone will come to make arrangements tomorrow. Miss Xu, please take a rest."
Zhuang Zhoucheng walked straight into the elevator, pressed the button for the basement floor, and got on the car.
Zhuang Zhoucheng angrily loosened the collar of his tie and slammed it hard on the steering wheel with a "bang".
"grass--"
Zhuang Zhoucheng cursed under his breath, drove to the bottom of Building 40, and went upstairs.
The two properties in Jingyuan were bought a long time ago.
A single apartment and a duplex. Zhuang Jinse now lives in the duplex.
Zhuang Zhoucheng had no choice but to go to Zhuang Jinse to get himself ready, otherwise if he went back like this, it would be strange if his family didn't get suspicious.
Huo Yan is just careless, but he is not stupid.
He didn't want to disturb the atmosphere that had just eased because of these things.
Zhuang Jinse was sleeping soundly. When she heard the doorbell, she pulled up the quilt and continued to sleep. No one could stop her from resting.
How important is sleep to a woman of this age?
It is better to stab a woman than to disturb her beauty sleep in the middle of the night.
When the doorbell rang for the second time, Zhang Bin went out to open the door. He didn't expect that Mr. Zhuang Sanye would come so late.
"Have you just returned from a business trip?" Zhang Bin asked, inviting the person into the house.
Zhuang Zhoucheng entered the house without answering Zhang Bin. As he entered the house, the wine glass slipped out of his sleeve and was placed on the high platform in the entrance hall.
It’s convenient to put it here so you don’t forget it when you go out.
Zhuang Zhoucheng was in no mood to deal with anyone, and he didn't take his new brother-in-law seriously.
Zhuang Zhoucheng went upstairs, and Zhang Bin took his cup into the kitchen to wash it. He scrubbed it clean until it was translucent and bright, and then placed it upside down with his own wine glasses.
This kind-hearted...
This is really bad.
Zhuang Zhoucheng went upstairs and stood in the dark room for a long time.
To be honest, he was in a bad mood at the moment. What was wrong was wrong, and there was no reason or excuse to justify it.
What can be done?
We can only erase what has happened and pretend it never happened.
He felt a little regretful about what happened to Xu Jingxi.
But looking at Xu Jingxi's current situation, even if he hadn't taken that step first, she would still look for him.
If Xu Jingxi comes to see him, will he just stand by and watch her like he treats everyone else?
With Zhuang Zhoucheng's insight, after what happened tonight, how could he not think of anything else?
To put it bluntly, this is a trap!
It was a trap set up to exploit his weakness, but unfortunately he woke up a little too late.
Subconsciously, I don't want to classify Xu Jingxi as a woman with a purpose, but reality is always so cruel.
Zhuang Zhoucheng walked into the bathroom and washed his thick body with boiling water. He stood naked in front of the glossy mirror, turned sideways, and looked at the scratch marks on his back. His brows tightened instantly.
I am extremely bothered by the red marks on my back and really want to tear this layer of skin apart in a few strokes.
He took the anti-inflammatory and scar-repairing ointment and went downstairs, knocked on Zhuang Jinse's door, and it was Zhang Bin who opened the door again.
Zhang Bin was dumbfounded when he saw the shirtless muscular man standing at the door.
Third Master, this is...
Is your brain okay?
Zhang Bin subconsciously closed the door to prevent his wife from seeing it. Although this was his wife's brother, they were already adults and there was still some precautions between men and women.
"Thank you for your help." Zhuang Zhoucheng whispered.
"It's okay." Zhang Bin replied in a low voice.
He applied two layers of ointment. We are all experienced people. How could we not know the reason why a man got injured here?
Fortunately, Zhang Bin is a responsible person and would not tell anyone about this matter.
After Zhuang Zhoucheng had applied the medicine, he went upstairs, changed into clean clothes, sprayed himself with a lot of perfume, and left at night.
It's not that I haven't considered whether Zhang Bin is trustworthy. At this point, who is the right person to find?
