Ah-Cheng wouldn’t seek her out for no reason, so he must have gotten the order from Huo Siqian .
Seeing Ah-Cheng’s attitude towards her, she knew that Huo Siqian thought she was a traitor .
In fact, Zhang Manlin had not done anything traitorous .
It was a complete accident that she had been robbed and kidnapped in the mountains while on the road . Otherwise, she really would have adhered to Huo Siqian’s request and brought the children to Qinghe Town .
At that time, because she had already become a wanted criminal, she found herself stuck .
However, somewhere along the way, she inexplicably became Qin Chu’s hero .
The twins changed their attitudes towards her, and she also smoothly entered GK .
Originally, this was a good thing, and she should have been pleased . However, in her heart, she always felt faintly uneasy .
Just like today, Ah-Cheng almost killed her, but Qin Chu’s people arrived just in time, looking as though they were concerned about her . But, was it really true?
She worked as Huo Siqian’s pawn for five years, and she was very familiar with his tactics . If Huo Siqian really thought she deliberately betrayed him, then she was in grave danger!
So Zhang Manlin was now faced with two choices .
The first was to go back to Huo Siqian, clearly explain herself, continue to be his snitch, and then help him complete his master plan – waiting for him to take Huo Mian away so that she could get Qin Chu all for herself .
The second was to look for Qin Chu and lay all of her cards out on the table, explain everything, seek protection, and thoroughly define her boundaries with Huo Siqian .
However, neither Qin Chu nor Huo Siqian were masters that were easy to serve .
For the first time in her life, Zhang Manlin had fallen into a deep dilemma…
– 6 o’clock in the morning, Huo Family Mansion –
Huo Siqian went downstairs on time, wearing a pink shirt and black trousers, both of which had not been worn for a long time .
He bore an extremely sullen expression on his face .
The leather-banded watch on his wrist was a limited edition Patek Philippe, which gave off an aura of privilege and luxury .
“Good morning, Boss . ”
Ah-Cheng stood opposite from Huo Siqian .
“Cheng, please sit . Let’s eat a little something together . ”
“Boss, I have something to report . ”
“No rush, let’s eat first . ” Huo Siqian’s expression was very calm .
Ah-Cheng did not dare to say anymore . He just sat across from Huo Siqian, looking at the rich breakfast on the table, and not daring to move .
“Come on, why don’t you try this and see if it’s good?”
Huo Siqian pushed a bowl of yellow sticky porridge over to Cheng .
Ah-Cheng took a small spoon and ate it slowly .
“When I was very young, I was sent to the Huo Family by my biological parents . My foster mother was a temperamental woman… Because she had never been loved her entire life, she dumped all of her hostility on me and did all she could to mistreat me . I remember once, I was locked in the warehouse for two days and two nights . I was starving . After she let me out, I was given a bowl of porridge . Since I was so hungry, I gobbled it down, only to discover that the porridge was scalding hot . It was a special kind of rice, called yellow rice . It keeps a very high temperature . Even if it is soaked in cold water, the surface will be lukewarm, but once it reaches the stomach it will be very hot . That time, I seriously burned my esophagus, and my foster mother watched me coldly as I rolled around on the ground screaming . She derived great pleasure from my pained expression . ”
Ah-Cheng didn’t understand why his boss decided to share this with him just then . He suddenly felt that the boss had a very unfortunate childhood .
Then he ground his teeth and said, “Boss, I can kill your foster mother for you . ”
“No, I don’t want to talk about these things . What I want to say is that I have suffered so much, but I have not died… I am still alive . I know that God let me live and has made other plans for me . Then one day, I met my Mian… . ” When he mentioned Huo Mian, Huo Siqian’s lips formed the warmest of smiles .
Even people who were around him all the time had rarely seen him smile with such warmth…
