Seeing Zhang Jianzhou faint, I didn't know what to say.
It's still early, so Yao Chengjie obviously wants to take a break during the break and sort out his thoughts.
I walked up to Zhang Jianzhou, glanced at him, and shook my head.
I asked, "What are your plans next?"
Yao Chengjie said, "Let's stop for a moment. Could you do me a favor and ask for me?"
I gave a wry smile. "You think I didn't ask? I asked him last night, but he's tight-lipped and didn't say a word."
Yao Chengjie said, "It's different now. He'll definitely be scared when he wakes up. Could you help me out and ask him about it?"
I shook my head and said, "No."
"What would it take for you to be willing to do it?"
I said, "I'm not doing it no matter what. This is your business, not mine."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade me, Yao Chengjie didn't press the issue and turned to discuss something with Jiang Bai.
I'm not in a hurry. Although I don't care about their affairs, I'm still curious about what happened to Lu Changkong. Yao Chengjie thought Lu Changkong was dead, but Jiang Bai received news that Lu Changkong was still alive. Now Zhang Jianzhou says Lu Changkong is dead.
Whether Lu Changkong is dead or not is truly a mystery.
Jingjie said, "I think Lu Changkong is probably not dead."
Jingjie's sudden opinion left me a little confused, so I asked, "Why?"
Jingjie shrugged and said, "It's just intuition."
This reason is unacceptable to me.
Jingjie said, "Just kidding. Although I haven't had much contact with Zhang Jianzhou, he's been at the research institute these days. Considering what he did to you before, I can tell that he's a liar."
"But why did he say that Lu Changkong was already dead? Wouldn't that be very disadvantageous for him?"
Sister Jing smiled. "Really? I think the current situation is quite favorable to him. Look at Yao Chengjie and Jiang Bai, they are at a loss and have no idea what to do. As long as Zhang Jianzhou insists that Lu Changkong is dead, they will be powerless against him. And I think Zhang Jianzhou has also realized that you will not let him die."
"So, since he won't die, and will only suffer a little, what's the disadvantage? At worst, he'll get a few beatings. As long as he doesn't die, he still has a chance to turn the tables. Zhang Jianzhou must be thinking that right now."
I asked, "So, do you think he has any connection with Lu Changkong?"
Sister Jing shook her head and said, "I don't know about that, but judging from the information Jiang Bai knew and his insistence that Lu Changkong was dead, there should be a connection, and it's probably quite significant. As for what exactly happened, I don't know, and it's none of our business anyway."
I raised an eyebrow and said, "That's true. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. Let them worry about it. As long as Zhang Jianzhou doesn't die, nothing else matters."
It's already 9:30, and Zhang Jianzhou is still unconscious.
I came to the outside of the bridge and looked at the sky; it was cloudless.
Fortunately, the weather is no longer hot; it's a pleasant autumn day with clear skies and a cool breeze.
When will life finally find true peace?
Let's not think about it now. I'll wait until everything around me returns to normal before considering a normal life.
Zhang Jianzhou woke up at almost 10 o'clock.
He was sitting on the ground with his back against the wall. When he woke up, Yao Chengjie patted his cheek. The moment he saw Yao Chengjie, he was fully awake.
"Have you slept enough?" Yao Chengjie said. "If you've slept enough, let's continue."
Zhang Jianzhou's face was filled with terror, and as he felt the pain of his injury, his expression turned ferocious again.
Yao Chengjie said, "Since you just said that Chang Kong is dead and that it's related to Ye Qian, then tell me, how did Chang Kong die, and what does it have to do with Ye Qian?"
Zhang Jianzhou swallowed hard and said, "Will you let me go if I tell you?"
Yao Chengjie nodded. "That's right, we'll let you go if you tell us."
I was watching from the side when I saw Zhang Jianzhou glance at me and say, "Lu Xiaonan, could you help me put my finger back in place? It hurts too much, I can't say anything."
Yao Chengjie pinched Zhang Jianzhou's cheek and said, "Stop talking nonsense, I'll help you restore it after you finish speaking!"
With a tearful face, Zhang Jianzhou began to talk about Lu Changkong.
Actually, when I went to the central town before, Zhang Jianzhou told me about Lu Changkong, but he only gave a very one-sided account and was not detailed at all. Moreover, he only mentioned his death casually and attributed it entirely to Ye Qian.
As for now, I wonder what he'll say.
Zhang Jianzhou said, "Actually, more than a month ago, Lu Changkong was still alive and was imprisoned in the central town. Later, because Ye Qian was worried about him in the central town, Ye Qian did not intend to kill him at first, but wanted to use him to blackmail you."
"But, but later Lu Changkong escaped once and almost killed Ye Cheng, so Ye Qian was unhappy, and then, and then..."
Yao Chengjie was in no hurry and waited patiently for Zhang Jianzhou to continue.
Zhang Jianzhou's face twisted into a grimace as he said, "Then Ye Cheng planned to kill Lu Changkong, but Ye Qian refused and tried to move Lu Changkong away. However, on the way, Ye Cheng attacked, and Lu Changkong died on the way. That's all I know. They didn't want me to have any contact with Lu Changkong in the first place, and all I know is what Ye Qian told me."
“If you don’t believe me, just go ask Ye Qian,” Zhang Jianzhou said.
I was speechless when I heard his last sentence.
Go ask Ye Qian? How?
Yao Chengjie said, "Okay, that's what you said. Let's stop here for today. I'll go find Ye Qian tomorrow and ask him what the real situation is. If things aren't as you say, you're dead."
Without hesitation, Yao Chengjie turned and left with Jiang Bai.
Uh, that's it?
I'm a little confused.
Then I saw a sigh of relief on Zhang Jianzhou's face. I didn't know if he was relieved now or relieved about the days to come.
If Yao Chengjie asks Ye Qian and gets a different answer, he'll probably be in big trouble.
I walked over to him, and he said with a pained expression, "Xiaonan, help me, it hurts so much!"
I shook my head and helped him put his two fingers back in place. After he screamed twice, I had Sister Jing take him to the car.
Then I caught up with Yao Chengjie and Jiang Bai, who were leaving.
I asked, "Are you really planning to ask Ye Qian?"
Yao Chengjie nodded and said, "Yes, I need to confirm Chang Kong's situation, so goodbye."
"Okay, I'll contact you later."
