Chapter 742: Cruel and Merciless
"That's different. What you are born with is completely different from what you have to work hard to get."
Although she works very hard, she sometimes envies those who are born without having to worry about money.
Xiao Muzhen nodded, "Indeed."
Shen Tian didn't continue the topic. She looked at her and said, "It seems that you have really let go of Huo Yunting. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so calm when you see him with other women."
"It's all over."
Her tone was calm when she said this, but the fingers holding the knife and fork turned white for a moment.
After they finished their meal and rested for a while, Shen Tian pulled her to continue shopping.
It was not until the evening that the two returned to the villa.
Xiao Muzhen went straight to the sofa as soon as she entered the door. Shopping was really tiring, even more tiring than working for a day.
Seeing that she looked too tired to move, Shen Tian couldn't help but laugh at her.
"What's wrong with you? I remember you used to like shopping too."
Xiao Muzhen shook his head, "I'm not interested anymore."
She also couldn't understand how Shen Tian, a pregnant woman, could be so energetic.
"But today was a good day. At least you've bought the clothes for your meeting with Shi Yiheng tomorrow night."
"Um."
Okay, I'll go take a shower first, you take a rest.
"good."
After Chen Tian went upstairs carrying a lot of bags, Xiao Muzhen leaned on the sofa with his eyes closed and dozed off, when suddenly the phone in his bag rang.
Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, she frowned, but still chose to answer it.
"Hello?"
"Xiao Muzhen! I'm Chi Xuan. I have something to tell you. It's about Shi Yiheng!"
Chi Xuan's voice sounded panicked, and there was a slight tremor in it.
A hint of surprise flashed across Xiao Muzhen's eyes, "What's the matter?"
"I can't tell you now. Find someone to pick me up. If I get caught, you'll never know what happened!"
"How do I know you're not lying to me?"
After all, Chi Xuan had done a lot of things like this before, so Xiao Muzhen's first reaction was disbelief.
"Do I have to lie to you?! I have nothing now, and my daughter is still in Shi Yiheng's hands. Come to Licheng immediately, and I will contact you tomorrow!"
Xiao Muzhen quickly asked, "Wait, did you just say Shi Yiheng kidnapped your daughter?"
"I don't have time!"
After saying this, Chi Xuan hung up the phone.
When Xiao Muzhen called again, the call was no longer connected.
She took a deep breath, opened the ticket booking software, and directly booked a flight for a little after eleven o'clock tonight. After sending a message to Shen Tian, she left the villa directly.
Knowing that Shi Yiheng had someone follow him, Xiao Muzhen did not go directly to the airport, but went to a club and took a taxi out the back door.
At first she didn't believe what Chi Xuan said, but when she mentioned Licheng, she believed it halfway.
After all, if Chi Xuan didn't know something, it would be impossible for her to accurately say the name of Licheng.
When she arrives in Licheng, perhaps her previous doubts will be answered.
What she didn't know was that Xiao Zhuan called her several times shortly after she got on the plane.
Hearing the reminder on his phone that the other party's phone was turned off, Xiao Zhuan frowned and got up to find Xiao Muzhen.
However, when he was halfway there, he was stopped by someone.
"Mr. Xiao, Mr. Shi wants to invite you to the Shi family."
Xiao Zhuan looked at the cars blocking his way and sneered, "That's perfect. I'm planning to go find him too. You guys lead the way!"
His hand secretly reached into his pocket for the cell phone and was about to call his secretary when a hand suddenly grabbed his wrist and pulled it out, pulling the cell phone out of his pocket and dropping it to the ground.
The man in black looked at him coldly, "Mr. Xiao, who do you want to call?"
Xiao Zhuan's expression darkened and he sneered, "It seems like you came prepared."
I guess the other party already knew that Shi Yiheng had kidnapped Yun Ling, otherwise they wouldn't have stopped him halfway.
The other party did not answer him, but said indifferently: "Mr. Xiao, please."
In less than half an hour, Xiao Zhuan arrived at the Shi family.
In the living room, Shi Yiheng was sitting, and he was standing aside, looking at him coldly.
"Shi Yiheng, do you think that by tying me up here, Zhenzhen won't know the truth?!"
There was no trace of surprise in Shi Yiheng's eyes, and there was even a hint of a smile on his face, "Third brother, if you are willing to keep this a secret for me, I..."
Xiao Zhuan interrupted him coldly, "I can't possibly hide this for you. You kidnapped Zhenzhen's junior sister and Chi Xuan. What on earth do you want to do?!"
Shi Yiheng raised his eyebrows, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
"It seems you've found out a lot... I locked Yunling up because I didn't want her to say anything she shouldn't in front of Zhenzhen. As for Chi Xuan... let me think about it, she said Zhenzhen was Huo Tianyi's murderer, so I tied her up to prevent her from running to Zhenzhen and scaring her."
He looked gentle when he said this, but Xiao Zhuan just felt scared.
"You say it's all for Zhenzhen's good, but you're actually afraid that what you did will be discovered, right?! Zhenzhen didn't kill Huo Tianyi at all, you are the murderer!"
Shi Yiheng's eyes were full of surprise, and his gaze towards Xiao Zhuan became even deeper.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on his lips.
"I didn't expect you to know so much. If that's the case, I can't keep you here anymore."
When his men arrived, Huo Tianyi was still breathing, so of course he couldn't let him live.
Besides, he was also helping Xiao Muzhen, wasn't he?
"If you dare to do anything to me, she will definitely not forgive you after knowing the truth! Besides, the Xiao family is not a pushover!"
Shi Yiheng nodded, "Indeed, but if you died in an accident, it has nothing to do with me."
Shock flashed across Xiao Zhuan's eyes, and he stared at Shi Yiheng as if he wanted to eat him.
But now his cell phone has been taken away by Shi Yiheng's men, and he has no way to find anyone to help him.
"You are such a cruel person, no wonder Zhenzhen doesn't like you."
Hearing this, Shi Yiheng's expression became ferocious. He stood up suddenly and looked at Xiao Zhuan with a crazy look.
"No matter who I am, she can't possibly like me! I used to be naive, thinking that as long as I could quietly watch her happy, everything would be fine. But Huo Yunting not only didn't make her happy, but also made her sad. In that case, what's wrong with me fighting for myself?"
She didn't like his kindness, so he didn't mind becoming vicious.
If calculation is the only way to keep her by his side, then he is willing to become a calculating person.
As long as he can keep her by his side, he is willing to do anything!
Xiao Zhuan shook his head. "You've gone crazy. What you've done will only push her further away. It's not too late to stop now."
Shi Yiheng couldn't help but burst into laughter, his eyes full of mockery.
"Why should I stop?"
