Chapter 19 Hope in Despair
Ye Zichen opened his mouth with great difficulty, yet he couldn't say anything out of fear.
If it was in the past, she wouldn't even have the right to be seen by Wu Zhizhong. Or it could be said that even if she stood naked in front of Wu Zhizhong, Wu Zhizhong probably wouldn't be interested in touching her.
It was only because she had joined the dynasty and accepted the mission to interrogate Wu Zhiyong that she had the chance to be above him and step over the once famous young master of the martial arts family in Beijing.
However, without the help of the dynasty, Gentle Heart discovered that she was still extremely weak and in dire straits.
One could imagine, when her master was about to slaughter a pig, she would definitely bear the brunt of the attack.
Even if it wasn't time to get out of the column, if the master wanted to vent his anger, it wouldn't be a problem to kill her.
It was as if someone had mercilessly tugged at his heart. As she looked at the expressionless Wu Zhiyong, she felt as if her entire body was suffocating.
If Wu Zhiyong was fl.u.s.tered and exasperated, then perhaps there was a possibility of negotiation, or perhaps, he could look for an opening to exploit.
She knew that she probably wouldn't be able to escape this calamity.
Not only could she not escape it, she might even have to endure a huge torture. When she thought about how cruel she had been to Wu Zhiyong, she felt even more terrified. Her mouth was wide open and her entire body was trembling.
At this moment, Gentle Snow discovered that her mind was exceptionally clear and that her memory was so good that even she could not believe it.
However, the more she remembered clearly, the more terrified she became. This was because she discovered that she couldn't stand any of the methods that Wu Zhizhong had used on her.
She wouldn't be able to take it!
Logically speaking, under such strange circ.u.mstances, high-level games and compet.i.tions should have little to do with minor characters. Most minor characters were responsible for running errands, being a knife in the hands of others, or being a chess piece in the hands of others.
Wu Zhiyong thought back to how he had fought Ji Feng, Ji Shaodong, and He Xianfeng all the way here. It had always been this way for him.
There were countless small fries moving around busily among the crowd, but there had never been a battle that made Wu Zhizhong engrave it into his heart. There had never been a battle that made him hate a small fry like this!
Gentle!
This woman, this self-righteous woman from a third-rate family that he did not even put in his eyes before. To be able to become someone's mistress or a p.a.w.n in someone else's hands, he had already overestimated her.
She was qualified to be a tool in the hands of others.
However, what Wu Zhiyong truly hated was that this woman was not just a tool. Honestly speaking, even Wu Zhizhong could not imagine that a woman could be so vicious and cruel to such an extent. He even suspected that there was a blood feud between him and her that he did not know about.
Otherwise, why would she be so crazy, so cruel and reckless when she interrogated him?
This woman was no longer just a tool. What she did was beyond the scope of tools.
Wu Zhiyong suddenly spoke. His voice resounded in her ears like a thunderclap, causing her entire body to shudder as her heart suddenly thumped.
"Then, why do you hate me so much?" Wu Zhiyong's voice was not loud as he continued to ask, "I can feel that your torture of me has already surpa.s.sed the scope of an interrogation. Can you tell me why?"
Wu Zhizhong nodded and said, "It seems that you don't want to say it. That's fine too. Since that's the case, there's no need to waste your breath. Prepare yourself. We'll travel later."
Gentle Snow abruptly opened her eyes wide, revealing a terrified expression.
"As for your family, you don't have to worry."
Wu Zhiyong said, "If there's no one involved, nothing will happen."
The warmth suddenly spread through his nostrils and his breathing quickened.
If there were no partic.i.p.ants, then nothing would happen to them. What he meant by what he said and what he said meant by what he said, was that there would definitely be problems?
Wu Zhiyong said, "I just don't know if your body will return to China if you join the World Bank regardless of everything."
"Wu Zhiyong, you can't do this, don't..."
Wu Zhizhong didn't say anything and just looked at her quietly.
As if she had gone mad, she screamed, "Wu Zhizhong, I beg you to let me go! Let me go, I know I'm in the wrong!"
"I shouldn't have sided with Number One, I shouldn't have sided with the Person of the World Bank, and I shouldn't have joined the dynasty …" I shouldn't have tortured you … "
"Ha!"
Wu Zhiyong could not help but shake his head and smile, "People actually know what they are doing."
"Compensation?"
Wu Zhiyong suddenly laughed: "How are you going to compensate me?"
Warmth was suddenly silenced.
How could she compensate Wu Zhiyong?
Wu Zhizhong had everything that she had, be it money or power. If she had the qualifications to compensate Wu Zhizhong, then she wouldn't have to put in so much effort to climb upwards.
However, when she saw his leg, she suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said, "I can, I can compensate you …" "I know of a technology that allows you to regain a healthy leg that is even stronger than your other leg …"
"Like the transformers?" Wu Zhizhong asked.
"No, no."
The thing that Gentle Heart feared the most was that Wu Zhiyong was not interested, but now that he had asked, it meant that he wanted to have a healthy leg. This caused hope to rise in her heart.
She hurriedly shouted, "Not a remodelled human. It's a brand-new technology. It can regenerate your bones and strengthen your muscles …"
She stared hard at his face, trying to read his thoughts from the change in his expression.
However, to Warm Snow's disappointment, after hearing her words, Wu Zhizhong only noncommittally smiled and asked, "Then how can you let me obtain this technology?"
"I know there's a base with complete facilities and instruments. There are also a lot of scientists who can perform surgery on you so that you won't need a cane anymore."
"Believe me, what I said was true."
Wu Zhizhong nodded and said, "I believe you. What you said is true. Then, where is this base?"
He felt warm and said, "I don't know how to describe it, it's on the sea, an island. I don't know the exact coordinates, but I know how to go there."
"Oh?"
"To Mi."
Gentle Heart immediately said, "The people that the Mi Kingdom specializes in taking in. They can send you there …"
"Because their defenses against outsiders are very tight, but I can make them accept …" Warm heart secretly rejoiced. Wu Zhiqiang was moved. That's good, that's good.
As long as Wu Zhiyong wanted to cure his leg, then his chance would come.
At this moment, the warmth from despair was replaced with endless hope.
"Then if you are disabled, they will treat you, right?" Wu Zhiyong suddenly asked.
"..."
Warm and stunned, she did not expect Wu Zhizhong to ask such a question.
