Chapter 018 Paparazzi without Bottom Line 18 Accusations.
Although Jian Ziyan didn't look, what was supposed to happen was still happening step by step.
Hearing the news about Jian Ziyan, Chi Zhou immediately turned around and strode over: "Lead the way."
Qu Shu ignored his own injuries and immediately turned over and got up. The bandaged wounds on his body soon oozed blood, turning him into a bloody man. Without even frowning, he pulled out all the tubes in his body and followed his superior.
Jiang Zhiyuan and Shen Xiuran were slow to react, but they quickly came to their senses and followed Qu Shu's example, pulling out the tubes and getting out of bed with difficulty.
The two fathers wanted to ask them to lie down again with concern, but they were waved away and staggered out.
Chi Zhou saw them come in. Originally, these contents should not be revealed, but for some reason, he just glanced at them lightly and assumed that they stayed in the room.
On the dedicated computer screen in front of him, there was a snowy screen at first, then the camera shook, and a figure lying on the ground appeared in front of him.
Everyone present could recognize him at a glance; it was Jian Ziyan!
Before they could react, a masked man came over with a bucket of ice water, and accompanied by Shen Xiuran’s horrified “No!”, the entire bucket of ice water was mercilessly poured on Jian Ziyan’s head and face.
Naturally, Jian Ziyan's body immediately curled up, accompanied by violent choking sounds.
"cough!"
This sound was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.
"That beast!" Jiang Zhiyuan murmured angrily. He subconsciously wanted to do something, but when he turned around, he saw the cold wall, which made him feel painful and confused.
What could he do? Whether it was now or then, he could do nothing, and even had to rely on Jian Ziyan to save his life.
Oh no, he still did something.
When Jian Ziyan was hiding from the pursuit, he added fuel to the fire and spread his name in the online public opinion.
Jiang Zhiyuan was speechless. At that moment, he wished he could kill himself.
However, soon the change of scenes attracted his attention again.
The person on the screen was knocked to the ground, his hair was grabbed and his face was pulled up, ice water mixed with blood was slowly flowing down, and his thin body was trembling slightly, not knowing whether it was due to the cold or the pain.
However, there was no trace of fear in his expression, and his eyes were cold and indifferent. Under such cruel persecution, the stronger he was, the more fragile and beautiful he seemed, revealing an unusual decadence and beauty.
The breathing sounds in the room trembled, not because of attraction, but because of the anger and murderous intent from the bottom of their hearts.
Chi Zhou really wanted to turn off the computer. He didn't want anyone to see his master's miserable state, but he couldn't suppress the murderous intent in his heart after seeing this scene.
He did not move. He wanted those whose lives were saved by the master's sacrifice to see what the master had paid for them.
They watched Jian Ziyan and Weng Jianbai talking. Even though they were in a dangerous and disadvantageous situation, their calmness and character during the confrontation deeply shocked everyone's heart.
For Chi Zhou and Qu Shu, all they knew was Jian Ziyan, with only endless pain and anger in his heart.
But for Jiang Zhiyuan and Shen Xiuran, this was Jian Ziyan whom they had never known before. When they just learned his true identity, his stern and unyielding side, which was completely different from what they remembered, was clearly presented in front of them, causing a trace of trance in both of their eyes.
They stared at that fragile yet stoic face, with countless intense emotions intertwined in their hearts, and they were unable to utter a word.
Regardless of their mood, no one spoke in the room for a while. However, this silence was broken when Weng Jianbai reached out his hand to Jian Ziyan.
With a loud bang, Chi Zhou suddenly stood up uncontrollably, his muscles bulging, like a lion out of control. If Qu Shu hadn't quickly grabbed him, he would have almost punched the computer through.
The others were not much better. Although they did not have Chi Zhou's fighting power, their eyes were red and they stared at the screen intently, almost coughing up blood in their throats.
How could such a strong, clean, and pure person be treated like this?
How could he touch Jian Ziyan with those dirty hands, how dare he defile that noble soul!
Everyone felt as if a knife was cutting their heart, and the whites of their eyes were forced to turn red, but no one took the initiative to look away from the screen.
They must remember this moment, remember what Jian Ziyan had endured, and remember that everyone who was singing was an accomplice in causing all this.
They watched helplessly as Jian Ziyan turned over and resisted in his extremely weak state, using all his strength to provoke Weng Jianbai, and a sigh of understanding emerged in everyone's heart.
This is Jian Ziyan. He would rather endure torture and be beaten to death than accept such humiliation.
Several masked sturdy men surrounded Jian Ziyan who was seriously injured on the ground. Jian Ziyan glanced at them indifferently. Except for the shock and anger when Weng Jianbai touched him, there was no other expression on his face. The person filming in front of the camera seemed to be attracted by the aura emanating from Jian Ziyan. He couldn't help but take a step forward, and then the screen suddenly went black.
The picture stopped abruptly when a smile appeared on Jian Ziyan's lips.
The screen went black for a long time and no one spoke in the room. Only heavy breathing echoed, indicating that no one here was calm.
After an unknown amount of time, Chi Zhou was the first to stand up. With a cold and stern expression and resolute steps, he strode towards the door.
Suddenly, Shen Xiuran's hoarse voice called him.
"Mr. Chi, are the things Weng Jianbai said in the video just now true?"
"Yes." Chi Zhou stopped and did not look back. "This is the special technology that Mr. Wang was willing to spend a huge amount of money to implant. I don't know where Weng Jianbai got the information from, but the reason why he doesn't dare to kill Mr. Wang directly now is because of this reason."
Speaking of killing that man, Chi Zhou bit his tongue hard with his back to everyone. The rapidly spreading blood and pain slightly stopped the sharp pain in his heart.
"Then why did he send this thing to us?" Jiang Zhiyuan's voice contained a hint of impending disaster.
Furious, "Is he so arrogant that he isn't worried at all about being able to track down his location based on the file information?"
Chi Zhou paused, but was unwilling to talk to Jiang Zhiyuan, so he left the room directly.
It was Qu Shu who answered him: "He is showing off. He wants to take revenge on Mr. for all the trouble he has caused him before. Not only does he want revenge, but he also wants to publicize his victory to those who are against him. We have dealt with Weng Jianbai many times. His behavior cannot be speculated by reason."
“Sir…” Shen Xiuran murmured palely, with a strong sense of regret spreading across his face, “If we had listened to him earlier…”
"In fact, you don't want to listen to Mr., even though he endured your harassment and suspicion, your slander and questioning, he still chose to explain to you and wanted to gain your forgiveness. Did you listen? Did you believe it?" Qu Shu cried bitterly. Even though he was so weak that he could hardly stand, he stared at the two with angry eyes and scolded, "In order to prevent your family from falling directly into the hands of Weng Jianbai, Mr. had to dig out the previous secrets to divert his attention. In the end, what did you do? You created public opinion and wantonly threw dirty water on him. In order to satisfy your own selfish desires, you chose the most despicable method."
"He explained to you time and time again that he didn't lie, why didn't you believe him? Not only did you not believe him, you even forced him to show his true colors. Do you know how much effort he made to hide his face? Do you know how much danger he would put himself and his mother in if his appearance was exposed? He has clearly said many times that he didn't lie, but you just don't believe him. Why don't you believe him? Why don't you believe him?"
"It was you who pushed him into this dead end."
Qu Shu was so emotional that he couldn't help but spit out blood. He spat out the blood foam in his mouth expressionlessly, not taking it seriously at all. He just looked coldly at the two stunned people and left the room as well.
After he left, Shen Xiuran staggered and leaned weakly against the wall behind him. All his pride was gone, and he covered his face with his hands in despair.
"Oh my God." His voice was weak and trembling. "What have we done..."
"…What have we done…"
In the end, she even started to cry.
But what's the use of this? Both Shen Xiuran and Jiang Zhiyuan clearly realized that they had made a big mistake and pushed Jian Ziyan into hell with their own hands.
Jian Ziyan even came to rescue them...
Jiang Zhiyuan's wooden body shook twice, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore and fell to the ground dejectedly.
"Issue a notice." His voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible. "At least... we can't let his reputation continue to be tarnished."
Perhaps it was because they finally had something they could do for Jian Ziyan, the two of them dragged their bodies up with great effort and did not let their thoughts sink into the abyss of regret.
This is the only thought that can support them now.
…
In the dark and damp stone chamber, a thin figure was suspended in the air by his wrists, with only his toes barely touching the ground, which was not enough to support his weight. His wrists were covered in blood, but if you look closely, you will find that his wrists were the least injured part of his body.
Jian Ziyan was breathing weakly.
He had long lost the concept of time in his mind. When Weng Jianbai didn't come to torture him, he just closed his eyes quietly and listened to the sound of dripping water coming from a distant direction.
Weng Jianbai initially tried various methods, including beatings, forcing him to take drugs and induce vomiting, in an attempt to make him spit out the memory device, but when he found that this did not work, he turned to forcing him to tell him the password to cancel sending.
Of course, this didn't work either and only made his situation worse.
At first he could still distinguish the distance of the sound of water drops, but later his consciousness became more and more blurred, so that the sound of water could only be heard intermittently. Sometimes he would feel that there was no sound of water for a period of time, and the whole space was as silent as a tomb. Sometimes his head would explode with the sound of water, as if the top of the cave was about to collapse.
In this unreal and real feeling, the pain in his body was no longer obvious. His consciousness flew out of his body and looked at this suffering body from afar, drifting helplessly.
His eyes were filled with a bloody chaos. Even when he was occasionally stimulated by new pain and returned to his body, he could not see clearly who was approaching him or what they were doing to him.
They are just tricks anyway, there is no need to worry about it. Since Weng Jianbai wants to make him have no way to live or die, then he will just accept it calmly. When he can't bear it anymore and really dies, that will be exactly what he wants.
In the dim light, it seemed that someone else walked in.
