Seeing Zhu Jue's strange expression, Zhu Zhu continued, "Zhu Jue... actually... actually, there is no deep hatred between you and me. I know that you and uncle want the twin pearls. Although I hate you for using despicable means to drive my father away, I never thought of making you pay the price."
"Although... although Shuangzhu is my father's labor of love..." Zhu Zhu continued, "but... but Nanxun gave me a large sum of property when we divorced. My father has been busy for so many years, and I have long decided to let him retire and enjoy a peaceful life..."
"You...what do you mean?" Zhu Jue was a little shaken. "Are you saying you don't want to fight us for the twin pearls anymore?"
"Shuangzhu's income is just a drop in the bucket for me," Zhu Zhu said. "If you don't believe me, you can ask your uncle to check out the Pearl Island that Nanxun gave me. The annual income from that island is enough to support me for the rest of my life."
Zhu Zhu's words seemed to have worked. After all, Zhu Jue's biggest fear now was that Zhu Zhu would become Nan Yu's CEO's wife and come back to snatch the twin pearls from her.
If Zhu Zhu promised not to snatch the twin pearls from her, then she would have no reason to kill Zhu Zhu.
"You...you're lying!" Zhu Jue said fiercely, "I did so many things in the past, how could you not hate me? Even if it wasn't for the money, you wouldn't let me go."
"Zhu Jue..." Zhu Zhu said earnestly, "If I really wouldn't let you go, why would I have to wait until I became Nan Yu's CEO's wife? You should know that Xie Jiashu and I have a special relationship. If I had begged him, I believe that with his personality, the two pearls would have been gone long ago."
After Zhu Zhu and Nan Xun divorced, Xie Jiashu protected Zhu Zhu everywhere and even went so far as to become an enemy of Nan Xun for her. Everyone in the imperial capital knew about it.
If Zhu Zhu really went to ask Xie Jiashu for help, it would be easier for Xie Jiashu to crush them to death than to crush an ant.
"That...that's because you lost your memory." Zhu Jue said stubbornly, "That's why you can't remember to deal with us."
"What's the big deal about amnesia!" Zhu Zhu said, "Don't forget that Shen Yihuan has always been by my side. Do you think she won't tell me about your past?"
"Shut up!"
Zhu Jue was shaken by Zhu Zhu's words. Although she hated Zhu Zhu, she couldn't kill someone with her own hands.
While planning all this, Zhu Jue was struggling in his heart.
Killing Zhu Zhu would relieve my hatred, but killing a person is not easy.
Even if Zhu Jue and Zhu Yuhua arranged everything perfectly. Even if no one could find out that this matter was related to her, Zhu Jue.
But as long as Zhu Jue ended Zhu Zhu's life with his own hands, he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep at night.
"Zhu Jue..." Zhu Zhu saw that Zhu Jue's expression was a little shaken and continued, "Please stop. Don't worry, as long as you let me go, I will never tell anyone about what happened today."
"You...are you serious?" Zhu Jue asked, "You really won't tell anyone about what happened today? And you'll promise not to snatch the twin pearls from us?"
"I promise." Zhu Zhu said, "As long as you let me go, I promise you."
After hearing Zhu Zhu's assurance, Zhu Jue's hand holding the knife seemed to lose its strength and relaxed. The knife in Zhu Jue's hand also fell to the ground.
Perhaps because she felt relieved, Zhu Jue no longer looked as nasty as before. Her left hand also let go of Zhu Zhu's neck.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhu Zhu took a deep breath.
To be honest, if she continued to pinch her, she didn't know if she would be strangled to death by Zhu Jue.
