"This..." Ling Xiao hesitated.
His hesitation was not because he doubted his subordinates, but because he was thinking about how to say it.
As Gu Fanzhi's confidant, Ling Xiao knew very well what His Highness's attitude towards Miss Gu was and what position Miss Gu held in His Highness's mind.
Precisely because it is clear, no one dares to speak it out.
"Speak." Gu Fanzhi said in a deep voice.
"I don't think they are lying." Ling Xiao finally stood on his brother's side.
Gu Fanzhi's face suddenly darkened.
What they didn't lie means that they weren't bribed.
"Don't worry about this matter. I will investigate it thoroughly. Also, deal with Dongmei as soon as possible."
He didn't want to follow Tang Jingyu's old path.
Who knows how that woman will bribe Dongmei and then bite back.
"Yes." Ling Xiao left the room.
After Ling Xiao left, Gu Fanzhi fell into deep thought. His mind kept flashing back to how they met and how they got to know each other, and a soft light gradually appeared in his eyes.
She wouldn't be that kind of person!
Gu Fanzhi's eyes became firm.
At the same time, Ling Xiao, wearing a nightgown, quietly sneaked into the cell where Dongmei was, and knocked out everyone in the cell silently. He walked to the door of Dongmei's cell.
Ling Xiao looked at the person curled up in the corner, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.
She was a good woman, what a pity.
Ling Xiao walked forward, took out a rope, and tied the unconscious person up. However, he didn't expect that the unconscious person would wake up.
Dongmei looked at him and recognized him at a glance.
"Ling Xiao."
She uttered two words lightly, and these two words made her hands stop moving.
"How did you..."
"You want to ask why I didn't fall into a coma, right?" Dongmei looked at him indifferently.
Ling Xiao didn't respond and waited for her to continue.
"Because before you, someone came here. She also knocked everyone unconscious, but I was the only one she woke up. She told me that I would definitely not survive the night."
Ling Xiao's expression changed and he looked around vigilantly.
Before he came, he didn't find anything suspicious, which was what made him nervous.
Dongmei noticed his nervousness and said, "Don't worry, I won't make a sound. If I want to live, you can't kill me tonight. But I won't agree to her. I'm not Tang Yu."
Ling Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to relax.
"I want to know one thing. Tell me, even if you don't do it, I won't be alive and give them any chance." Dongmei said.
"What's the problem?"
"Whose intention is it to kill me?"
Ling Xiao understood what she meant and what she was thinking. In fact, he really wanted to tell her that it was Miss Gu, not His Highness. But...
Seeing the anticipation and anxiety in her eyes, Ling Xiao finally softened his heart and chose a white lie, "It's Miss Gu."
A smile appeared on Dongmei's lips. "Thank you."
I don’t know why, but when I look at her smile, I feel a sense of bitterness. Is it my illusion?
"In the end, he won't even look at me, and won't give me a trace, even a trace of pity." Dongmei smiled bitterly.
From the moment she was captivated by his gentleness and smile, she knew that she was destined not to get what she wanted in this life. She had always secretly liked him and paid attention to him.
No one knows, not even Chun Liu and the others who are closest to me.
