Late is Not Late

Ji Wan thought Zhou Zechuan was a light in her life. She willingly hid her brilliance and entered into a secret marriage with him for two years, content to be his kept woman. However, she didn'...

Chapter 591 Don’t Act on Your Own

"I……"

"What do you mean?" Zhao Xiyue's tone was full of disdain and control. "Just remember, do whatever you're told to do. Don't act on your own. Do you understand?"

Sun Zhou gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word.

"……Understand."

"Very good." Zhao Xiyue was satisfied. "Stay still and wait for my call. Ji Wan is my prey, I want to play with her slowly until she collapses and has nothing left!"

The call was abruptly hung up.

The only sound in the corridor was Sun Zhou's heavy breathing.

He leaned against the wall, his body slowly sliding down, and finally sat dejectedly on the ground.

The cold ground cooled his boiling blood little by little.

He raised his head and looked at the door again. The resentment and unwillingness in his eyes almost turned into substance, penetrated the door, and dragged the woman inside into hell.

Ji Wan...

Chi Wenyan...

Just wait for me!

In a brightly lit private cosmetic surgery room, a faint smell of disinfectant still lingered in the air.

Su Jiujiu stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror, and her fingertips gently stroked her cheeks, her eyebrows, and her lips with a hint of nervous trembling.

The person in the mirror had a face exactly like Ji Wan's.

Flawless.

Even the slightly upturned corners of the eyes and the faint dimples on the lips when smiling were reproduced exactly.

"How about it?"

Zhao Xiyue stood behind her with her arms folded, her red lips curled up in a satisfied arc, but her eyes were as cold as a knife.

"This face cost me eight figures. Su Jiujiu, please don't let me down."

Su Jiujiu turned around suddenly, and the face belonging to Ji Wan in the mirror showed a weird and crazy smile.

"disappointment?"

She giggled, and her voice deliberately imitated Ji Wan's tone, but with nine parts of resentment and one part of gloom.

"You should ask Chi Wenyan, ask that bitch Ji Wan, if they would be 'disappointed' with my face!"

She took a step forward and approached Zhao Xiyue, her eyes filled with undisguised ambition and madness.

"I've waited for this day for so long! I want Chi Wenyan to fall in love with me again, and then dump him mercilessly! I want Ji Wan to kneel at my feet and watch me take away everything from her!"

"I don't care about your ambitions."

Zhao Xiyue frowned in disgust, took a step back and distanced herself from this crazy woman.

"I only want my Nian Nian. You get Chi Wenyan, and I'll take my daughter away. We owe each other nothing."

"Of course." Su Jiujiu smiled even more brightly, "It's a pleasure to work with you."

Zhao Xiyue was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, so she turned around, took out her cell phone and dialed the number she had already saved.

The call was answered almost instantly.

Sun Zhou's voice came over, suppressing his excitement and anxiety.

"What's going on? Can we start now?"

Zhao Xiyue walked to the window and looked at the busy night scene downstairs. Her voice was cold and without a trace of warmth.

"The prey is in place, it's time for you, the hunter, to take action."

Sun Zhou's breathing suddenly became heavy, and he jumped up from the ground excitedly!

"Tell me! What do you want me to do?"

"I want you to go to the hospital right now, immediately."

There was a cruel smile on the corner of Zhao Xiyue's mouth.

"Go to Nian Nian's ward and find Ji Wan."

"And then?" Sun Zhou licked his dry lips, a fierce look in his eyes.

"Then, just act your heart out." Zhao Xiyue's voice was full of temptation. "Play the role of a loving ex-boyfriend who was toyed with by her and abandoned by her. Play the role of a person who risked everything to save her child, but was thrown away by her after using him."

"Remember, the bigger the commotion, the better. The more tragic the better. It's best if she can't defend herself, and it's best if everyone sees what a vicious and cruel face Ji Wan is!"

"I have arranged an 'audience'. They will clearly record every detail of your performance."

Sun Zhou's blood boiled when he heard this, and his heart, twisted by jealousy and resentment, beat wildly.

He seemed to have seen Ji Wan's miserable appearance as he was being pointed at by thousands of people and became infamous!

"Good! That's great!"

He grinned, his voice changing in pitch.

"I promise to complete the mission!"

"Zhao Xiyue, just wait and see!"

Outside the hospital late at night, the cold wind carried the lingering smell of disinfectant, making people's scalps numb.

Ji Wan gathered his coat and walked towards the parking lot tiredly.

Nian Nian's condition is relatively stable today, but her heart is still hanging in the air.

She got into the car, started the engine, and the white sedan slowly drove out of the parking lot and merged into the night traffic.

Her mind was in a mess. She was thinking about Nian Nian's illness, Chi Wenyan, and the lingering ghost Su Jiujiu.

After driving for a while, Ji Wan unconsciously glanced at the rearview mirror.

A black business car followed behind not too far away.

It was a very ordinary car, she didn't care.

The main roads of the city are very busy, so it is normal to have cars following you.

At an intersection, she turned left and headed back to her apartment.

She glanced at the rearview mirror again.

The black business car also turned on the turn signal and followed slowly.

Ji Wan's heart skipped a beat.

coincide?

She pursed her lips and subconsciously tightened her fingers around the steering wheel.

At the next intersection, she did not follow the navigation, but turned right suddenly and turned into a relatively secluded road.

Her heartbeat began to accelerate and her eyes were fixed on the rearview mirror.

After a few seconds of delay.

The black business car, like a leech, also turned in.

Now, even the dullest person should understand.

This is not a coincidence!

The bone-chilling coldness instantly rushed from the soles of the feet to the top of the head!

who are they?

What do you want to do? Ji Wan's breathing became rapid, and fine beads of cold sweat oozed out of his forehead.

She stepped on the accelerator, and the car instantly accelerated and sped along the small road!

However, the performance of the commercial vehicle was excellent. No matter how she accelerated or changed lanes, it stayed closely behind her car, maintaining an extremely oppressive distance.

The other party is playing tricks on her!

Like a cat playing with a mouse, enjoying the fear of its prey being doomed to escape!

A huge panic gripped Ji Wan's heart. Her hands and feet were cold and she could hardly hold the steering wheel.

Call the police?

She didn't dare.

On such a narrow road, if you provoke the other party, they are likely to crash into you!

Chi Wenyan!

This name is her only life-saving straw at the moment!

With trembling hands, she grabbed her bag from the passenger seat and rummaged through it.

cell phone!

Her cell phone!

Her fingers finally touched the cold body of the phone. She grabbed it and without even looking at it, she pressed the quick dial number she knew by heart based on muscle memory.

The beeping sound of the phone was like a heavenly sound in the silent carriage.

It only rang once and then the call was connected.

"Wanwan?" Chi Wenyan's low and magnetic voice came, with a hint of hoarseness from the late night.
