the seventh bride

Chapter 224

"What exactly do you want?" She stared at Bai Muqing with moist eyes.

"Why don't we start making peace now."

Zhu Zhu smiled with tears in his eyes: "Peace? Your so-called peace doesn't mean that I will continue to replace you, does it? You don't naively think that I will be willing to die in your place, do you?"

"I know you won't, and I also know that you have been planning how to escape from Nangong's house recently. Not only I know, Pu Lianyao and Nangong Chen also know about it, so now your every move is being monitored all the time." Bai Muqing After a pause, he said, "By the way, I forgot to tell you why I was looking for you today. It was because Pu Lianyao came to look for me the day before yesterday."

Zhu Zhu asked eagerly, "What did she ask you for?"

"She told me that you are planning to kill Nangong Chen." Bai Muqing watched her face change slightly, and said with a low smile: "You are surprised, aren't you? In fact, there is nothing strange about it. Who told you to grasp it now? Where is the evidence of her crime? How can she feel at ease if she doesn't kill you sooner?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about?" Zhu Zhu said indifferently.

"Miss Zhu, let's stop pretending to be innocent at this time." Bai Muqing said: "Pu Lianyao knows that she has been exposed slowly, in order to avoid being exposed by you, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, she can't wait for you to be poached by the old lady in a month. She wants you to die early. But at the same time, she doesn't want to commit a capital crime, if she wants to kill you by my hand, that's why she suddenly came to tell me that you were planning to frame Nangong Chen. "

"Miss Zhu, do you understand? The person who really wants you to die is Pu Lianyao. Since she brought you to the Nangong family, she knew that you would be dug out by the old lady, but she ignored you in order to achieve her goal." My life or death. Fortunately, I survived, but whether you can live or not depends on yourself."

Zhu Zhu was frightened into a cold sweat by her words, and his face instantly turned pale.

After a while, she asked in a trembling voice: "What is Pu Lianyao's purpose?"

"This is exactly the question I want to ask you. If you are in the same boat as her, don't you know her ultimate goal?" Bai Muqing stared at her.

She thought that Zhu Zhu would know, but judging by her expression, it seemed that she didn't know at all.

Sure enough, Zhu Zhu shook his head after being stunned for a while: "I don't know, she never told me."

"She knew that I was Nangong Chen's destined lover, but she cruelly caused me such a car accident. What do you think her purpose is?"

"You don't want Nangong Chen to get through the hurdle of being a destined lover?"

"If I'm not wrong, this is indeed her goal." Bai Muqing sneered, "She not only wants the property of Nangong family, but also wants Nangong Chen's life. She is very ambitious."

Zhu Zhu lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking, and the knuckles holding the cup turned white, it seemed that the shock in his heart was not small.

Bai Muqing observed her reaction, and took a sip of boiled water while picking up the cup. She didn't disturb her, but waited quietly.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Zhu finally raised his head and stared at her: "Then why are you telling me this? Threatening me not to attack Nangongchen?"

"No, I hope you can tell right from wrong. Pu Lianyao has been using you from the very beginning."

"So what? I'm also using her to marry Nangong Chen, and it's my fault."

"So you don't want to live now?"

"You can let me live?"

"Miss Zhu, it's impossible for you to escape unscathed at this point. Even if you don't get killed by the old lady, you won't be able to escape a heavy prison. I may not be able to protect you, but your parents are after all. It's my uncle and aunt, and I can help you keep them." Bai Muqing stared at her solemnly and said, "As long as you are willing to accuse Pu Lianyao of crimes."

"So that's why you came to find me today?" Zhu Zhu sneered.

"You don't have to worry about what my purpose is, anyway, after a month, no matter whether you will tell the truth that I am a destined lover or not, you will die. And with Nangong Chen's feelings for me, no matter whether I am a destined lover or not , he is not willing to let me die, so I can still help you keep uncle and aunt."

"Can you keep it?" Zhu Zhu sneered and burst into tears.

Pu Lianyao had told her more than once that as long as she dared to betray her, she would let her parents be buried with her.And Pu Lianyao's viciousness, she has seen it before!

"Think about whether you want to make this deal with me or not." Bai Muqing stood up from the sofa, looked down at her and said, "Miss Zhu, you were the one who lied to Nangong Chen from the very beginning, and you were the one who let him down. It's your own fault to take revenge on you."
-
After Nangong Chen came out of the private room, he saw Qiao Feng sitting not far away looking at the door of the private room.

He walked over and said straight to the point: "I want to talk to you."

Today, the two have been sitting in Qiao Feng's office for 15 minutes, but neither of them said a word.

In the end, it was Qiao Feng who spoke first, and said calmly: "I know what Young Master Chen wants to talk about. If you really can't open it, please go back. I think the two of them should finish talking."

"Is there anything I can't talk about?" Nangong Chen sneered: "I'm just worried that you won't be able to accept the truth."

"Tell me, I can accept it." Qiao Feng said.

"The fact is that Mu Qing and I love each other."

"I know."

"You know?" Nangong Chen sat up straight, looked at her angrily and said, "Since you know, why do you still want to forcefully occupy her? Second Young Master Qiao, do you have to be so selfish?"

"I've said it before, if you want me to return Mu Qing to you, you can deal with Ms. Zhu." Qiao Feng said, "No, there's that Ms. Pu, when will I deal with those two women? I want Mu Qing."

Nangong Chen stared at him, and asked suspiciously: "What you said is true?"

He remembered that Qiao Feng also said last time that as long as he disposed of Zhu Zhu, he would return Bai Muqing to him.It's just that he didn't believe that Qiao Feng would willingly return Bai Muqing to him, so he didn't take his words to heart.

Today when he talked about it again, he couldn't help becoming serious, staring at him and said: "I will definitely deal with Pu Lianyao and Zhu Zhu, it's just a matter of time. But Mu Qing, will you really return it to me?"

"Maybe?" Qiao Feng answered ambiguously.

"It seems that this is just an excuse for you to reject me."

Qiao Feng said: "I mean, if you want to grab Mu Qing from me, the premise is to get rid of those two women. Don't think too much about it."

Nangong Chen sneered: "Since this is the case, then I have nothing to say. Anyway, I will definitely snatch Mu Qing back. If you still have a little bit of conscience, Qiao Ershao, please let go. Don't take what you have done to Mu Qing." It is not only shameless but also shameless to tie her up with some kindness."

Suddenly there was a knock on the office door, the two stopped talking, and Bai Muqing opened the door and walked in.

She obviously did not expect Nangong Chen to be in Qiao Feng's office, the moment she saw Nangong Chen, a look of surprise appeared on her face.

The two men in the office were also looking at her, and the scene suddenly became a little awkward.

"Mu Qing, are you done talking?" Nangong Chen asked softly.

"En." Bai Muqing nodded her head, "The talk is over."

"Mu Qing, come here." Qiao Feng waved to Bai Muqing, and Bai Muqing walked over.She stretched out her hand to hold Qiao Feng's palm extended to her, feeling more and more uncomfortable in her heart, and she could even feel Nan Gongchen's eyes behind her piercing her body like a sharp sword.

"Are you okay?" Qiao Feng's voice was equally gentle.

"It's good." Bai Muqing took advantage of the situation and sat down beside him.

Qiao Feng raised his head and said to Nangong Chen with an uneasy expression: "Young Master Chen, your wife should still be waiting for you in the private room, it's time to send her home."

Nangong Chen's face was a little restless, his face changed from green to white, but he seemed to have no choice but to leave under the current situation.

"Young Master Chen, thank you for helping me." Bai Muqing also said something to him, looking at him with obvious guilt.

With Nan Gongchen's personality, it's no wonder he wasn't mad, but it's really hard for him to be able to endure it.She lowered her eyes slightly, and did not continue to look at him.

"You're welcome, it should be." Nangong Chen smiled: "Anyway, you did this for my own good."

He stood up from the sofa and looked at the two of them: "Then I'll go first, see you two."

"Goodbye." Bai Muqing got up and sent him out of the office.

At the door of the office, Bai Muqing said politely: "Young Master Chen, I won't send you out."

Nangong Chen, who was walking out, suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look at her angrily.Bai Muqing deliberately didn't look away from him. She thought that Nangong Chen would leave after glaring at her, but she didn't expect this guy to drag her from the door, and then pressed her against the wall, bowed her head and ruthlessly He nibbled hard on her lips.

Bai Muqing was taken aback by him, this is a public place, in case the employees saw it.

"Little thing, just wait for me to snatch you back someday." His voice suppressing anger and lust sounded in his ear.

Bai Muqing anxiously pushed him away from her with her hands, squeezed him out of his arms, and returned to the office.

Looking at the door that had been slammed shut, Nangong Chen gritted his teeth, then turned around and left the place with an evil smile.

In the office, Bai Muqing's body leaned against the door panel, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

"What's the matter?" Qiao Feng looked at her and asked with a smile.

Bai Muqing smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing." She walked over, sat down at the position just now, picked up a piece of fruit from the table and fed him a piece, then took a piece into her mouth herself.There was still Nangong Chen's breath on her lips, she unconsciously wiped it with her hands, and the scene of Nangong Chen forcefully kissing her just now played back in her mind.

It seemed that Nangong Chen was really mad at himself.
-
After listening to the day's work schedule, Nangong Chen asked Assistant Lin: "How are the company's minority shareholders doing recently? Are there any movements?"

Assistant Lin thought for a while, and said, "Mr. An has been in close contact with Chairman Shen recently, but I have tricked him in private, and it seems that I have no intention of selling the company's shares to others."

"The two of them have always had a good relationship, you should pay attention to it." Nangong Chen said.

"Yes, I will."

After Assistant Lin finished speaking, he pointed to the financial documents on the desktop and said, "So, Young Master Chen, what should we do with this document? Do we need to publish it?"

"No, I will deal with this matter." Nan Gongchen hesitated for a while, and said, "Go and help me call Shen Dong over."

"Okay." Assistant Lin turned and walked out.

Five minutes later, Shen Dongyang came in.

On the surface, he was as respectful and polite as ever: "Young Master Chen, what can you do for me?"

Nangong Chen sized him up, then threw the document on the desktop into his hands: "You can read it yourself."

Shen Dongyang caught the document, opened it, and looked at it, then stared at Nangong Chen with a sudden change of expression: "What's going on? How could Shen Ke have lost more than 2 million sales of Waterside Garden? This brat Are you too bold?"

"I also think this kid is very courageous."

"What do you think he wants the money for? Is there any misunderstanding?"

"No misunderstanding."

"But.."

"Shen Ke really doesn't have the guts, but it will be different if you give him the guts behind your uncle's back."

"Young Master Chen, what do you mean?" Shen Dongyang pretended not to understand.

"Uncle, do you still remember that Zhiyuan Company snatched the land in the west of the city from us?"

"Remember, it was Assistant Yan who did it."

"That's right, but what's ridiculous is that Zhiyuan Company is in great trouble because of this land, and the capital chain is completely broken. These days, they are borrowing money everywhere."

"Well, I heard." Shen Dongyang nodded, and his face began to look a little uncomfortable.

"I don't know if my uncle has heard of it, but there is a major shareholder behind Zhiyuan Company named Shen Dongyang." Nangong Chen walked around to him, his gaze tightened little by little.

Shen Dongyang's face changed completely.

He knew that Nangongchen would definitely guess that she forced Shen Ke to embezzle the money, but he didn't guess that Nangongchen actually knew so much, even that he was the major shareholder of Zhiyuan Company's Empress Mu.

"Chen, who are you listening to nonsense? How could I be the major shareholder of Zhiyuan Company?" Shen Dongyang asked anxiously.

He knew that Nangong Chen was not that easy to fool. If it wasn't for the huge funding gap, he wouldn't dare to put his mind on Nangong Group.Who made Nangong Group have a lot of money? If he didn't ask him to borrow it, who would he borrow it from?But he didn't expect Nangong Chen to have investigated him so thoroughly.

"I found out by myself." Nangong Chen said: "I also know that Shen Wannian is an old classmate of my uncle, and they have always had a good relationship. It's just that there has been an unhappiness with Zhiyuan Company recently." After Nangong Chen finished speaking, he took a light breath and said : "Okay, I don't want to hear my uncle's nonsense that I have nothing to do with Zhiyuan Company, and I don't want to ask why you took away such a large sum of money. I just want to talk to you about how to deal with this matter. matter."

Shen Dongyang didn't say anything, Nangong Chen continued: "Uncle dared to let Shen Ke embezzle the money because grandma wouldn't have the heart to send Shen Ke to prison after seeing her dead, right?"

"Uncle, I think you made a mistake this time. With such a large sum of money, I can't just let Shen Ke admit his mistake and apologize."

"Then what do you want?" Shen Dongyang said expressionlessly.

"There are two options. First, uncle, you take the blame and resign from Nangong Group. Second, hand over Shen Ke to the law." Nangong Chen took a step towards him and stared at him: "There is no third, you should think about it yourself." .”

Shen Dongyang looked at him and shook his head: "You have no right to fire me. Although I don't have many shares, I'm still a shareholder of the company. I have the right to stay in the company."

"Then uncle chose second?"

"you."

"I understand why my uncle insists on staying in the company." Nangong Chen smiled and mocked: "Uncle uses the scandal to buy shares from small shareholders, and at the same time embezzles the company's assets bit by bit to far away. The company, even if the company collapses at that time, you can still jump to the Zhiyuan company to make a fortune."

The corner of Shen Dongyang's mouth twitched: "Young Master Chen, you say that I must have evidence for embezzling the company's property?"

"It's not that there is no evidence, it's just that I've turned a blind eye to my uncle's behavior these years, but uncle must be careful in the future." Nan Gongchen went back to the desk and sat down, glanced at his hands The financial documents: "Uncle, if you calculate such a large sum of money, you will need to spend several years in prison. If you are really willing to let Shen Ke in, then please help me hand over the documents to the legal department and let them follow the procedures. "

Seeing the determination on his face, Shen Dongyang finally panicked.

"The old lady won't let Shen Ke go to jail, don't try to scare me."

"Shen Ke violated the national law, not the family rules. Grandma can't keep him."

Shen Dongyang was angry, and after gritting his teeth for a while, there was some compromise in his tone: "Let me think about it before I speak."

"I'll give you one day to think about it." Nangong Chen said, "There may be a way out. You can fill in the 4 million yuan vacancy within today."

Shen Dongyang just gritted his teeth and didn't speak.

"Actually, it's good for my uncle to resign early and go home to take care of the elderly, or return to Zhiyuan Company to be your largest shareholder, and Nangong Group will still give you dividends every year." Nangong Chen's tone also cooled down: " Uncle, to be honest, if it wasn't for the sake of my aunt and Shen Ke, I would have cleared you out of the company without saying a word, and I would never waste time talking to you about this, so please do it yourself, Otherwise, don't blame my six relatives for not recognizing me."

"Don't recognize the six relatives?" Shen Dongyang sneered: "I never felt that you treated my Shen family as relatives."

Before Nangong Chen could speak, he immediately said again: "Forget it, even Shen Ke himself said that our Shen family relied on your Nangong family to make a fortune, so it's normal to be looked down upon by your Nangong family. .” He shrugged, turned and left Nangongchen's office.
-
After Shen Dongyang left Nangongchen's office, he didn't go back to his post directly, but came to Shen Ke's office. The assistant told him that Shen Ke didn't go to work today.

He asked in surprise, "Why?"

The assistant shook his head: "I don't know, Mr. Shen didn't say anything."

Shen Dongyang turned around and walked back while taking out his mobile phone to dial Shen Ke's number. The phone was connected, and Shen Ke's weak voice came from inside: "I've already given you all the money? Why are you calling me?"

"Where are you now? Why didn't you come to the company?" Shen Dongyang asked sullenly.

"Go to work?" Shen Ke sneered self-deprecatingly: "Do you think I still have the face to go to work in the company?"

"Where are you? I'm going to find you now."

"What do you want from me? Can you get me some more money?" Shen Ke continued in a mocking tone: "Dad, I told you that my cousin is already suspicious of you, and he is also closely monitoring me , so the truth about the missing money was found out in such a short period of time.”

Shen Dongyang frowned: "Since you know that Nangong Chen has found out the truth, why don't you escape?"

"escape?"

"That's right, flee abroad before Nangong Chen takes action against you." Shen Dongyang's tone became more serious: "Shen Ke, listen, Nangong Chen promised to give me a day to think about it, or I will resign from Nangong Group, Either send you to the law. I think you don’t want to leave your crippled fiancée behind and go to jail, do you? So run away and go to a place where the law can’t sanction you.”

Shen Ke was silent, then laughed: "Dad, is this the way out you set for me?"

"Yes."

"But I don't want to escape. Don't worry, you don't have to leave the company. The evidence is that I committed it and I will bear it myself."

"Shen Ke!" Shen Dongyang was annoyed: "Don't forget why you did this, it was for Miss Pu. If you were arrested and imprisoned for at least ten years, you think your Miss Pu would be willing Waiting for you for ten years? Is there any point in doing all this?"

"You forced me to do this!" Shen Ke suddenly roared: "Dad, if I break up with Lian Yao, you must have forced me!"

"I've given you a way out now." Shen Dongyang eased his tone, and said, "Shen Ke, you can go to France with peace of mind. I've already taken care of everything there before. You and Ms. Pu will definitely be there. Have a good time, be obedient, pack up your things and leave here immediately."

Shen Ke on the other end of the phone was silent, and finally hung up.
-
Taking advantage of Xiaolu's inattention, Zhu Zhu came to Pu Lianyao's room.

She glanced around the room, then walked towards the terrace: "Lianyao, did you call me?"

"Well, sit down." Pu Lianyao poured her a cup of rose tea.

"Is there something wrong?" Zhu Zhu looked at her, thinking about what Bai Muqing had said to her.

"It's nothing, I just want to chat with you. I can't move around so I have to ask someone to come in." Pu Lianyao picked up the scented tea and smelled it, and said: "These roses were brought back to me from New Zealand by Shen Ke. Very good, you smell it."

"It's really fragrant." Zhu Zhu picked up the teacup and smelled it a little uneasy.

"By the way, have you already figured out a way out?" Pu Lianyao asked suddenly.

Zhu Zhu put down his teacup, stared at her sadly and said, "I thought about it, and I still think that the method you gave is the most effective way to escape this disaster."

Pu Lianyao's heart moved, and she raised her eyes to stare at her: "You mean, you decided to do what I want?"

"Well, but I need your help."

"That's no good. My cousin has been monitoring me very closely recently, so it's inconvenient to make small moves."

"You help me buy a barrel of gas oil and come back, and then help me lure the people at the door of my room away at night. This should be a trivial matter for you?" Zhu Zhu looked at her and sneered: "Lianyao, do you want to borrow money?" To get rid of Nangong Chen with my hands, I have to help a little."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Why would I want Nangong Chen to die?"

"Nangongchen is dead, isn't the Nangong family owned by you and Shen Ke?" Zhu Zhu smiled mockingly again: "We have come to this point, what else is there to hide?"

Pu Lianyao bit her lip and changed her tune: "Is it that simple?"

"That's right, it's that simple, within three days the Nangong Group will be yours."

"I'll have to think about it."

"You still have to think about such a simple matter?" Zhu Zhu disdained: "If it wasn't because I was grounded, I wouldn't need your help."

Pu Lianyao stared at her, her face turned cold little by little: "Because I don't want Nangong Chen to die so easily, this is not the result I want."

"Miss Pu, what time is it now? Are you still so naive?" Zhu Zhu glanced at her legs and mocked, "Who else would believe you now except Shen Ke who believes you are lame? Nangong Chen's net is about to be aimed at you." Your head is covered, if I were you, I would quickly pack up my bedding and flee for my life."

Pu Lianyao's face turned red and pale at what she said, although she was very annoyed.But what Zhu Zhu said was all things, facts that she could not deny.

Her ideal plot is to watch the Nangong family murder people for their hearts, but in the end, they not only take the wrong heart, but also violate the law implicitly, and Nangong Chen's strange disease will not only get better, but will even become more and more serious, and then little by little Tortured to death by illness, watching the Nangong family change their names and surnames and become her and Shen Ke's possessions.

However, the fact now is that Bai Muqing, the true destined lover, is still alive, and Nangong Chen has already become suspicious of her. If she doesn't act again, she will be killed by Nangong Chen before Nan Gongchen dies slowly.

So she had to act first before Nangongchen discovered her real purpose. After using Zhu Zhu to attack Nangongchen, and then knocking out Zhu Zhu's time bomb, her current task was temporarily completed.

The two drank tea with each other's thoughts, until there was a sound of opening the door, Zhu Zhu stood up from the chair, smiled at her and said, "Think about whether you want to help me, I'm going out first."

It was Shen Ke who pushed the door in.

After Zhu Zhu greeted him, he walked out.

After watching her go out, Shen Ke walked up to Pu Lianyao's side and said, "Lianyao, such a vicious woman, why do you still get so close to her?"

Pu Lianyao said with a smile: "It's not very close, she came up to chat with me just now, there's no way I can drive her out."

She looked at Shen Ke, and found that his face was obviously paler than usual, and she asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Is it not going well at work? By the way, why did you come back at noon today during working hours? "

Shen Ke lowered his head slightly, so silent that no one could see what he was thinking.

"What's wrong? You look frustrated." Pu Lianyao asked again.

Shen Ke finally moved, leaned over and hugged her into his arms, stroked her hair and said, "Lianyao, shall we move out?"

Pu Lianyao was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: "What's wrong? What happened?"

"It's nothing, I just don't want to stay here anymore."

"But... where should we move to?" Pu Lianyao was still puzzled.

"How about going abroad, to your favorite country, France?"

"No." Pu Lianyao shook her head: "Although I like France very much, I don't want to settle there at all. I like living in my own country."

In fact, she knew that Shen Ke would say these things to her, because Mrs. Shen had called her just now to persuade Shen Ke to go abroad. She agreed with all her mouth at that time, but it was only with her mouth.Leave the Shen family?She has no such plan yet!
"But this time I have to go."

"Shen Ke, actually I know why you are leaving. My aunt has already told me." Pu Lianyao blinked her eyes, tears rolled down her eyes, and her tone became choked up: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. about you."

"Don't say that." Shen Ke patted her shoulder lightly: "It's none of your business, it's because my dad is too greedy, he forced it."

"Why are you so stupid." Pu Lianyao's tone was full of distress.

"For you, I can only be stupid this time." Shen Ke let go of her, and looked down at her: "So, leave here with me, okay?"

"But. If we just leave like this, what will happen to the Nangong family? Do we not care about it? It will be less than a month before the third wedding anniversary of my cousin and sister-in-law, and there may be some troubles in the house by then. Well. Shen Ke, didn't you tell me to protect the Nangong family and help the Nangong family overcome all difficulties?" She raised her hands, held Shen Ke's face and said softly: "Shen Ke, you go to France first Go, I'll be here with grandma, after the matter of Mrs. Jing is over, I'll go to France to meet you right away, okay?"

"You let me go alone?"

"That's right." Pu Lianyao nodded: "After you leave, I will find an opportunity to intercede with grandma and cousin. I believe they will forgive you and give you a chance to change."

Shen Ke shook his head: "No, we have to go together. If you don't go, I won't go either."

"Shen Ke, if this matter is transferred to the legal affairs, it will be a criminal case, and you will go to jail." Pu Lianyao continued to persuade earnestly: "So for the sake of our future, you go first, otherwise we will go to jail." We really can't be together anymore."

"But.."

"Come on." Pu Lianyao interrupted him with a wry smile: "Honey, this is our only way out."
