Chapter 247 Public
"Mr. Zhou, you have almost everything you wanted. Even if your plan is implemented, you will be invincible. It's time to stop now." Xie Tingke continued: "Slowly sell off the assets in Country A. I will help you transfer all the funds of the Zhou family to the East Market. When you leave, the Zhou family will become an empty shell."
"That was your original plan, wasn't it?"
Obviously, since Xie Shiyuan was not present, Xie Tingke had no scruples and his tone became much faster.
Zhou Zongzheng listened attentively with a smile on his face, and suddenly raised his eyebrows, "You seem to want the plan to end quickly, but the plan has been going on for so long that I almost forgot what kind of plan it is."
"Mr. Xie, you have a good memory. Come and tell me about it."
Xie Tingke didn't have time to chat with him at the moment, so he continued, "You got Shi Yuan's photo from that woman. I don't understand whether you are threatening me or deliberately exposing those unbearable secrets."
"You used Old Lady Xie to force me to make a decision. No matter whether I choose Xie's and give up Shi Yuan, or choose Shi Yuan and give up Xie's, do you think that I am living a leisurely life and will not arouse suspicion?"
Once Mrs. Xie determined that he and Xie Shiyuan were having an affair, she would inevitably suspect that he... was not the real Xie Tingke.
The reason why he was able to enter this house smoothly was because he used a fake appraisal certificate and deceived everyone.
During this period, there were several surprise inspections and five paternity test reports before Mrs. Xie was sure that he was the real Xie Tingke.
Unless it was a critical moment, Xie Tingke was unwilling to mention those past events.
"Aren't you afraid that my identity will be exposed and you will be left with nothing?" This sentence was almost on the verge of a showdown.
Xie Tingke is not here to eat.
This man is really... He actually made Old Mrs. Xie suspect him.
Old Mrs. Xie was not a stupid person. She really had her suspicions, so she allowed Xie Wude to investigate him.
Did Zhou Zongzheng think he was living a good life? With a glamorous identity and unconditional favor from his elders, he had been enjoying this identity over the years!
"Mr. Xie, you are angry. I told you that anger will make you lose your reason and judgment."
Zhou Zongzheng unbuttoned a few buttons nonchalantly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a dangerous smile.
"Even if Mrs. Xie had some suspicions, you could have solved it quickly with your ability, right? You helped the female star who wanted to get promoted to a higher position to hook up with Xie Wude. How could a loser who indulged in the pleasures of life have the energy to investigate you?"
"Old Madam Xie trusts you and gives you the power. She is now able to have a say in the Xie family, partly because of the inheritance and authority, and partly because of your respect. She will not easily turn against you, so there is no way she would investigate you in private."
"Her move of allowing Xie Wude to investigate you has been easily resolved. You have done very well, just like before."
"It's not like before now." Xie Tingke was unhappy.
Zhou Zongzhen smiled faintly, crossed his legs and leaned back, looking at the other person with interest, like a wild beast lurking in the dark, ready to give a fatal blow to the target in front of him at any time.
"Now is the past, and it's time for you to make a choice again."
"I remember your choice back then. In that forest, you had already found your lost sister, but because of a little bit of cheap emotion, you recognized her as your mother. You were grateful that she accepted you, and you developed a friendship with her daughter."
"A woman who is not your mother, with just a few words, you can run around for her and look for her lost daughter. But your real biological mother, she was brutally murdered and buried forever underground. At the moment of her death, she still hoped that you would live."
"It's a pity that those who survive are destined to forget the dead. Changing an environment is like changing a home. Warmth pulls out your fangs, and you will have new ties. And those ties are destined to become your weaknesses in the future."
"If I hadn't pulled out your weak spot, do you think you would be here today?"
"A guy who looks cold and pretends to be cold-blooded actually has a heart that desires warmth more than anyone else. A little bit of pitiful and cheap emotion can make you treat the other person as your mother."
“Forget your roots.”
Xie Tingke's sullen face would not change because of anything Zhou Zongzheng said, except for the last two words.
His face suddenly turned pale, revealing a sharp and distorted beauty.
Yes, Xie Tingke is undoubtedly handsome. The man is so handsome that the word "beautiful" is the most appropriate description. There are several different kinds of beauty, which set off his unique and noble temperament.
"If I hadn't pulled out your weak spot, do you think you would be here today?"
Zhou Zongzheng spoke again, his expression stripped from the light and shadow was extremely gloomy.
"You've been letting your emotions get the better of you. You risked your life to protect that mother and daughter."
"Because they are destined...to not survive in a wealthy family. Just like what you have experienced, the weak will become a burden. Once you find something weak around you, you must be the first to cut it off."
"Use everything you can around you and treat their experiences as your philosopher's stone. Since you chose to ignore them in that forest, why bother to bring her home?"
"You know everything, and I know everything too. You were the one who called to inform Old Madam Xie. It was you who wanted Xie Shiyuan to come home. It wasn't so-called exploitation, but just to fulfill your guilt."
“We are different after all.”
Zhou Zongzheng expressed his disappointment.
"I should have killed you last time. I really wanted you to die."
“.......”
Silence, a long silence.
Xie Tingke was speechless.
Zhou Zongzheng said coldly, "You look different from me, and your personality is different too. If I had known, I would not have chosen you."
“.......”
Silence, another long silence.
What did that time mean? It seemed that for Xie Tingke, it was always something he could not express in words.
"The time Xie Shiyuan smashed the car door to save you, I really wanted to kill you." Zhou Zongzheng shook his head and sneered, "I wanted you to feel what I've been through in life, what it feels like to be chased and killed by someone."
"It's interesting to use our common enemy to kill you. Although we have supported each other for so many years, what can I do? As a survivor, even if I have to face you, the only one... I always hope that you will die."
"While I was trapped in a dark hell, you were chosen to come to a new environment... full of singing and laughter. I was so jealous."
