Chapter 299 The True Purpose
"I really won't let you out of prison, and you don't have to dream of using this to reduce your sentence. Just like Yilan just said, the Zhang family didn't use any means to increase your sentence, which is already very kind of you."
Huo Juncheng paused deliberately at this point. Huang Liyuan felt a little uncomfortable with the sudden silence, so she looked up to see Huo Juncheng's expression.
It wouldn't matter if you didn't look, but when you did, it happened to catch Huo Juncheng's eyes.
Huo Juncheng just smiled sarcastically, as if he was looking at something extremely disgusting. That look made Huang Liyuan shiver all over.
"But Miss Huang Liyuan, don't forget that the target of your kidnapping this time, besides Zhang Zilan, who has a connection with you, is also my fiancée, Lin Yilan. If you cooperate with us and tell us everything you know, I can consider reducing your sentence by a few years. However, if you remain so stubborn, then you can expect to spend the rest of your life in prison."
Huang Liyuan was shocked. She didn't expect Huo Juncheng to use this to threaten her. After hearing what Huo Juncheng said, Huang Liyuan no longer had any reason to continue wasting time with Lin Yilan and Huo Juncheng.
"I'll tell you everything. I hope Mr. Huo will be magnanimous and not hold it against me. I really don't want to spend the rest of my life in prison."
Huang Liyuan was so anxious that tears were about to flow out of her eyes. Huang Liyuan wiped away her tears and began to explain everything.
"Actually, when I was with Zhang Ziyu, I thought she really liked me and wanted to be with me. At that time, I was really grateful to God for giving me such a beautiful appearance, which allowed me to marry into a wealthy family without any effort."
"I'm not interested in your emotional entanglements. You know what I want to ask, so just get to the point."
Huo Juncheng rubbed his eyebrows and interrupted Huang Liyuan's recollection. Any one of Lin Yilan, Zhang Zilan or Chu Siran might be curious about these things, but for Huo Juncheng, he didn't want to listen to Huang Liyuan recalling those things here. It was a waste of time.
"I want to hear it, please continue."
Alas, what did Huo Juncheng say? Lin Yilan must be curious about this kind of thing. Sure enough, Lin Yilan interrupted.
Huo Juncheng could only hold his forehead helplessly. Since Lin Yilan was interested, he had no choice but to let Huang Liyuan continue.
"During that time, I was gloating over this matter. It wasn't until a few days later that Zhang Ziyu confessed the whole story to me. I realized that I was just an excuse Zhang Ziyu made up to prevent Zhang Zilan from continuing to like him."
At this point, Huang Liyuan's eyes were already flashing with jealousy. It was a kind of anger of unrequited love, a kind of jealousy of one woman against another.
"But it doesn't matter. I don't really care who he likes. As long as I can become the young mistress of the Zhang family, that's enough. I don't like Zhang Ziyu anyway. I'm just attracted to Zhang Ziyu's money."
"real?"
Lin Yilan raised the question from the side, not because of Lin Yilan's whim, but because she really had a feeling that Huang Liyuan also liked Zhang Ziyu, and it was not completely as she said, that she did not like Zhang Ziyu at all.
"Since you want to listen to Huang Liyuan's story, why don't you just listen quietly?" Huo Juncheng glared at Lin Yilan. He had no interest in these bloody plots.
As a result, Lin Yilan is endless now. It is not just a simple matter of listening to Huang Liyuan's retelling, but she even adds her own questions. If this goes on, how much time will Huo Juncheng waste with Huang Liyuan?
"If you interrupt Huang Liyuan again, just get out of here and don't listen to this anymore."
Now, except for Huo Juncheng, Lin Yilan and Huang Liyuan, the rest of the people staying in the basement are all Huo Juncheng's subordinates. If Lin Yilan still wants to hear the story of Huang Liyuan and Zhang Ziyu, the best option is to listen quietly without any rebuttal or interruption.
Lin Yilan made a gesture to Huo Juncheng to keep quiet, and fixed her gaze on Huang Liyuan.
However, Huang Liyuan did not continue to speak at this time. Lin Yilan pursed her lips, glanced at Huo Juncheng, then glanced at Huang Liyuan, and then glanced at Huo Juncheng again. After making sure that Huo Juncheng would not drive her out if she spoke now, she spoke anxiously:
"So, what's next?"
"What's next? I've said everything I wanted to say. That's all. This is how Zhang Ziyu and I met and all the emotional twists and turns we've had. In the end, our relationship can be summed up as: a purely mutually beneficial one."
"We're not asking how you and Zhang Ziyu met, nor whether you like Zhang Ziyu or whether Zhang Ziyu likes you. What we want to know is why you came up with the idea of kidnapping Zhang Zilan and making her disappear from this world forever. And how did you and that so-called taxi driver meet?"
Huang Liyuan shrugged innocently, "Because that man Zhang Ziyu didn't agree to marry me. He's about to die. Wouldn't it be nice if he married me before he died and turned me from a sparrow into a phoenix? Couldn't he just be a Lei Feng and do this good deed?"
Lin Yilan was really confused when she heard Huang Liyuan's words. What kind of crazy logic was this? Why would Huang Liyuan have such thoughts? "So just because Zhang Ziyu really likes Zhang Zilan, you have to kill Zhang Zilan? But even if Zhang Zilan dies, so what? Does that mean you can become the young mistress of the Zhang family?"
Lin Yilan's question hit Huang Liyuan's heart. Huang Liyuan's expression was out of control because of Lin Yilan's words. Before she could adjust herself, she heard Lin Yilan say again:
"You know you're just a shield for Zhang Ziyu. Zhang Ziyu knows he doesn't have much time left and doesn't want Zhang Zilan to like him anymore, so he asked you to act out this scene. If you kill Zhang Zilan, not to mention being the young mistress of the Zhang family, you probably won't even be Zhang Ziyu's girlfriend anymore."
Huang Liyuan hesitated and couldn't explain herself clearly. Lin Yilan didn't believe that such a smart woman like Huang Liyuan couldn't figure out these things.
The reason why she wanted to get rid of Zhang Zilan was not because she wanted to become the young lady of the Zhang family or a noble lady.
It was because Huang Liyuan also liked Zhang Ziyu and wanted to be with him, but Zhang Ziyu only had Zhang Zilan in his heart, so Huang Liyuan turned love into hate and vowed to get rid of Zhang Zilan, because she felt that only in this way could she completely enter Zhang Ziyu's heart.
