Chapter 12 Yes, I regret it

When she found the so-called aphrodisiac, she also found her diary in which she had recorded her thoughts over the years.

Every word and sentence above is related to Zhou Chen, recording everything that happened to them.

Including her change of mind towards Zhou Chen.

That's right, she fell in love with her uncle.

Chen Ru read it out on the spot, expressing her disdain, anger and excitement.

She remembered the way those people looked at her.

Unbelievable, disgusting, contemptible and unbearable.

Maybe it's all of them...

Even Zhou Ping, who usually did not show up for a long time, showed up. After learning about what happened, he was shocked at first, then became speechless, and asked her with a complicated expression.

"Xiao Ge, is this true? You, you feel this way about Achen?"

How should she answer this question? She couldn't just shake her head and deny it, but facing those accusing eyes, she couldn't nod in agreement either.

So she could only remain silent, but Zhou Ping sighed heavily after a few seconds.

"Xiao Ge, why are you as confused as your mother? Achen is your uncle, how could you..."

At that moment, she did feel ashamed. After all, this man really loved her and treated her very well, even for her mother's sake.

He never gives less than what his own daughter deserves.

If Chen Ru had not threatened to commit suicide, Zhou Ping would have completed the adoption procedures with her.

She will be a member of the Zhou family in the traditional sense.

She was actually glad and even grateful for Chen Ru's persistence back then.

Zhou Ping finally looked at the most important person in this matter, his younger brother, Zhou Chen.

"Achen, what do you think?"

Xu Ge, who had been silent all the time, finally took action. She looked at the man almost stiffly.

I saw that the ashtray in front of him was already filled with cigarette butts.

You can imagine how he feels at this moment...

So she clenched her fists and mustered up her courage, "Uncle, I..."

Zhou Chen raised his eyes and looked over, his gaze extremely cold.

She could not utter a word of pleading. Her face was pale and she stood helplessly in the hall accepting the final result of the trial.

"I will send her abroad."

Chen Ru was a little dissatisfied and seemed to want to say something, but Zhou Ping glared at her warningly.

"Just be quiet, are you dissatisfied with the situation?"

Chen Ru sneered, "Did I strip her naked and throw her on Achen's bed? The surveillance camera recorded it clearly. She went in on her own initiative. Why are you yelling at me? I know that if the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked..."

"Shut up! Get out of here if you say another word!" Zhou Ping roared angrily.

Chen Ru naturally would not give in. Her disgusted look was like a needle that pierced Xu Ge's heart deeply.

"I am your legitimate wife, Mrs. Zhou. Who the hell is Xu Ge? If anyone needs to leave, it should be this ungrateful bitch like her!"

Zhou Ping was so angry that his chest was gasping, but it was obvious that he didn't want to argue with her anymore. Instead, he looked at Zhou Chen and asked.

"How long is the deadline?"

After this question, everyone fell silent.

Including Xu Ge, she looked at him expectantly.

Chen Ru couldn't help but remind her, "Achen, don't forget that your plans and reputation are ruined by her."

Zhou Ping couldn't stand it anymore and slapped her. Chen Ru was stunned and was about to argue with him.

Zhou Chen's cold tone sounded.

“There’s no deadline.”

Chen Ru's anger subsided when she heard this. She looked at the crumbling Xu Ge with pride. She looked at Zhou Chen in disbelief.

Zhou Ping's expression also changed, "Achen?"

Zhou Chen stood up slowly, his expression stern. He glanced at everyone in the Zhou family and finally said in a cold voice.

"You are not allowed to return to the country without my permission."

Xu Ge was heartbroken at that time. She didn't expect that he would be so cruel and decisive to her.

She wanted to keep him, and she almost couldn't control herself as she moved closer to him, grabbing his sleeve, her eyes blurred with tears, looking pitiful and helpless.

"Uncle, you really don't want me anymore?"

Zhou Chen didn't say anything, nor did he look back at her. He just said in a deep voice, "Let go."

Xu Ge pulled him tighter, "Uncle, don't do this to me, I don't want to leave, please..."

Just then, Zhou Chen's cell phone rang.

I didn’t pay much attention at the time, but now when I think about it carefully, I seem to have heard the word "hospital".

"I'll be there now." After Zhou Chen said that, he clutched his phone and looked at her coldly from the side, but his eyes seemed even colder and more biting.

Xu Ge understood at that moment that she seemed to be really going to lose this man's love and mercy forever.

She kept crying and shaking her head, but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

All I could hear was him chuckling softly, "It's my fault. From the first day you stepped into the Zhou family, I shouldn't have taken pity on you because you lost your parents at a young age and treated you well. It's my fault."

Oh!

Zhou Chen said he was wrong, he said he was wrong!

He shouldn't be nice to her, pamper her, and take care of her.

"Do you regret it?" She didn't know how she asked this question.

But she only remembered Zhou Chen's deep, dark eyes staring at her and saying to her, "Yes, I regret it."

Xu Ge opened his eyes and

She turned on the bedside lamp, touched her cold forehead, and leaned aside to calm the fluctuations brought by the dream.

She was exiled willingly, only when he said the word 'regret'.

It seemed as if she had no reason to stay, nor would anyone want her to stay.

The memories came to an abrupt end.

She took out her cell phone and called Ding Lili.

"Ge'er, why are you calling me so late? Did something happen?"

"No, is Qin Lei here?"

"He's here. I picked him up. He just got off the plane."

Xu Ge glanced at the time. It was two o'clock in the morning. In the huge Zhou family mansion, except for a dim light coming from her room, the other rooms were pitch black and it was quiet at night.

"It's time to experience the value of his flight across the Pacific Ocean. Let him block all Zhou family signals in ten minutes."

"clear."

After ending the call, Xu Ge took out her suitcase, which contained a password box. After entering the fingerprint password lock, she took out the device inside.

It is the latest pin-shaped camera with a radio function, which is one of the essential tools for their investigation.

After she matched the signal and channel, she turned off the lights in the room and waited quietly.

A few minutes later, Ding Lili's message was sent to her watch.

Ding Lili: The signal has been blocked.

Xu Ge picked up her phone and took a look. Sure enough, there was no signal. She curled the corners of her lips and quietly left the room.

Standing in the corridor and looking at the camera above the end, I saw that the red light had disappeared, which seemed to be a success.

She walked slowly towards the three of them, but paused for a moment when passing by Zhou Chen's door.

Then he walked towards Zhou Zimo's room. He seldom returned to the old house, so although the things here were complete, they were not many. The door was usually not locked to make it easier for the servants to clean.

She gently pushed open the door and entered the room without turning on the lights. She put on high-tech night vision glasses.

When she found the so-called aphrodisiac, she also found her diary in which she had recorded her thoughts over the years.
