Chapter 1658: Understanding
At dinner time, Fu Hanzheng did not return, but called her and asked her to take the medicine.
So only Gu Weiwei and Yuan Meng were eating at the table.
Seeing the good spread of food, Yuan Meng went to open a bottle of Fu Shiqin’s wine.
“I won’t give you any because you have a cold, and I don’t want Fu Hanzheng to give me trouble,” Yuan Meng said as she poured herself a glass, took a sip and squinted in satisfaction.
Gu Weiwei picked up some light dishes and said indifferently, “Yuan Meng, do you think that there is something wrong with the kidnappers from today?”
“Do you mean to ask why they would kidnap you?”
Yuan Meng swirled the red wine and smelled the wine in the glass. Fu Shiqin was indeed the second most famous foodie of the Fu Family. Not only did he know how to eat, but he also knew how to select good wine.
She had not tasted this kind of red wine for years.
She drank it down in one gulp. Apart from the wine, she also tasted money.
“I mean that they were not thorough enough.” Gu Weiwei told her what she was thinking.
Yuan Meng choked on the wine and threw a look at the woman who was speaking.
Fu Hanzheng had said the same thing a couple of hours ago; they truly did have a great understanding of each other.
“What a coincidence, Fu Hanzheng said the same thing a couple of hours ago.”
“He said the same thing too?” Gu Weiwei threw a look at Yuan Meng and asked, “What else did he say?”
“He asked me and Lei Ning to keep an eye out for you.” Yuan Meng wiped off the wine stain on her lips with the napkin and said calmly, “But Gu Siting is not going to give up so easily. You must be careful too.”
She reminded her to be careful, but she did not tell her about Fu Hanzheng suspecting Kuroda Keiko.
After all, it was just a speculation without any evidence. She would not believe it even if she told her now, and she might even blame Fu Hanzheng for being too suspicious.
Gu Weiwei lowered her head and stared at the food; she stayed silent for a long while before saying suddenly, “I remember that you used to have a ring that contained a highly-pure poison. The poisonous spur could kill someone just by piercing their skin.”
Hearing her words, Yuan Meng said hesitantly, “Do you want one?”
“Give me one, just in case,” Gu Weiwei said seriously.
Guns and knives were not easy to carry around, but she had seen that kind of ring before. It was shaped like a skull, small and convenient.
Yuan Meng thought for a while and asked, “Can I ask who you are going to deal with?”
“Maybe it is my kidnapper, maybe it is Gu Siting. Let’s see who will suffer,” Gu Weiwei said calmly.
Yuan Meng fiddled with the glass and said, “Someone asked me to destroy it years ago, and it is gone now.”
“You have none left?” Gu Weiwei frowned.
“I only had two, how many do you think there are left?” Yuan Meng thought for a while and said, “There is one more ring, but it is not a poison, it’s a highly-pure neurotoxin that can only cause paralysis.”
She still had the highly poisonous drug, but if Weiwei ended up dealing with Gu Siting, she would not dare to give it to her.
Because Gu Siting’s life was tied to hers too.
“Then give it to me,” Gu Weiwei said instantly. Anything was better than nothing.
“I will see if I can give it to you after I ask your Boss Fu,” Yuan Meng said.
Gu Weiwei glanced at her speechlessly. “Are you my friend or loyal to him over me? Why are you obeying him now?”
“He pays me, so of course I listen to him.” Yuan Meng smiled with squinted eyes and mumbled, “Also, you two are not separate from one another, so you must pay me back for this friendship somehow.”
She would obey her as a friend, but when it came to her safety, she would obey Fu Hanzheng.
After all, he would think about her future.
