Chapter 679: Be My Chess Piece
Song Shijing walked up to her and said indifferently, “Miss Shen, you’re too careless. Clean this place up as soon as possible. This coffee cup is a limited edition. Miss Shen, you have to compensate us according to the price.”
Shen Ying was so angry that her face was red. However, when she recalled Gu Zheng’s cold gaze just now, she did not dare to flare up. She could only grit her teeth and endure it.
When night fell, Shen Ying stood in the living room and roared, “What? Why can’t I stay here? I’m supposed to serve Young Madam. If I don’t stay here, where else can I stay?”
“Miss Shen, you were indeed taught by Huang Lilan. Just because Huang Lilan is a mistress herself, she thinks that all men are as unprincipled as Gu Weiming?”
A cold male voice came from behind. Shen Ying was so scared that her body trembled.
The servants of Longwan Residential had already returned to their rooms to rest. Gu Zheng walked downstairs leisurely while Song Shijing took a few steps back respectfully.
Gu Zheng was wearing a set of silk pajamas with only three buttons buttoned, revealing his fair and strong chest. He said lazily, “Miss Shen, do you know why I brought you back to Longwan Residential?”
Shen Ying looked up at the lazy and devilish Gu Zheng, her heart trembling in fear. “It’s… It’s because you like me. I’m here to serve you.”
“Heh!” Gu Zheng sneered. “Who gave you the confidence, Miss Shen?”
“Miss Shen, have you seen Qiao Rou?”
Gu Zheng took a few steps closer. Shen Ying then realized that Gu Zheng was holding a gun in his hand. The metallic luster made her eyes hurt. Her body trembled as a cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She replied in horror, “I don’t know her! I don’t know who she is!”
Gu Zheng looked down at her with eyes filled with disdain. “It doesn’t matter whether you know her or not. You’re just a dog beside Huang Lilan. Even if you don’t tell the truth, it won’t affect me at all.”
Shen Ying heaved a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, Gu Zheng said coldly in the next second, “There’s no need for me to keep those who are useless to me. It’ll be more peaceful if they die.”
What? Gu Zheng really wanted to kill her?
“No matter what your motive is, your actions have crossed my bottom line. However…” Gu Zheng paused and continued, “However, I think it’s still useful to keep you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Zheng raised his hand and pressed the cold muzzle of the gun against Shen Ying’s forehead. Shen Ying was so scared that her face turned pale. Her body trembled, and she could not say anything.
Gu Zheng said casually, “I have something that I need you to do, Miss Shen. Go back to the old residence now and tell Huang Lilan that not all men are as easy to deceive as Gu Weiming. Then, stay by Huang Lilan’s side obediently and wait for my instructions. If you’re unwilling to cooperate with me, then you’ll be useless to me. I’ll let you die miserably. Do you think Huang Lilan can protect you then?”
Shen Ying’s body stiffened. Her back was drenched in sweat.
Gu Zheng put down the black muzzle and said, “Alright! Get lost!”
Shen Ying’s legs went weak, and she almost fell to the floor. She staggered a few steps and ran away in a panic, ignoring her image.
At this moment, she realized that Gu Zheng knew everything. Those things could not be hidden from his eyes. He knew that she had met Qiao Rou, so he wanted to kill her.
However, that was not her intention. Madam Gu had ordered her to do that. If she did not do as she was told, Madam Gu would not help her get close to Gu Zheng.
At this moment, in the villa.
Song Shijing looked confused. “President, aren’t you worried that she’ll tell Madam Gu about this?”
Gu Zheng smiled meaningfully. “Shen Ying isn’t stupid. She knows that Huang Lilan is using her, and she also knows that I’m using her. There’s only one difference between me and Huang Lilan, and that’s that Huang Lilan doesn’t have the guts to kill her. I can take her life at any time.
“In order to protect her life, she’ll naturally agree to any of my requests. I can’t find any clues about the car accident, but she’s by Huang Lilan’s side every day. She’ll definitely discover something.”
Shen Ying knew that Gu Zheng wanted to investigate the car accident, and she also knew that Madam Gu and Lu Yan had been using her. They could sacrifice her like they had sacrificed Qiao Rou. Shen Ying naturally had to make plans for herself. She would weigh the pros and cons before deciding whose side to stand on.
“Huang Lilan thinks that I’ll like Shen Ying and plans to use her to restrain me, but she would never think that Shen Ying would betray her and be my chess piece.
Song Shijing gulped. Gu Weiming and Huang Lilan could go against anyone but the president. They would definitely die miserably by doing this!
Song Shijing said unhurriedly, “President, you’re not in a good state, so don’t worry about these things. You should rest first and let ‘him’ handle it. He’s also you…”
