It’s one of the few things my mum left on earth, how the f*ck am I supposed to let it get burnt? And it’s the diary my mum wrote in, which is more important in my heart than Mount Thoughtless.
Chen Yu Zhou fell on his a*s when I hit him, but the grandson even threw the candle into the fruit bowl.
There was a boom and the fruit bowl burst into rumbling flames.
“Damn it!”
I, Zhao Zichen and Zhang Mei actually shouted out the same sentence at the same time, and all three of us pounced on the fruit bowl at the same time to rescue it.
I leaned in closest, overturned the fruit bowl, took off my jacket and punched it desperately, while Zhang Mei ignored the flames and reached out to grab it.
“Are you crazy?!” I shouted, but she held on for dear life.
Su Xiaoqiang was so frightened that she screamed for her mother. Zhang Mei’s beautiful two hands had been burned with rows of blisters by the fire and she was screaming in pain, but she just wouldn’t let go. I looked around, grabbed the ice water on the table and poured it over towards Zhang Mei.
The fire finally went out, and Zhang Mei’s two hands were almost ruined, swollen to the size of two pig’s feet, but her first reaction was to put the notebook in her arms and forbid us to grab it.
“Don’t you come any closer! This notebook has kerosene inside the lock hole, forcibly breaking the lock will ignite the kerosene and burn the whole notebook from the inside in one breath, and the fireproof lizard skin on the outside will be useless. If you come any closer, I’ll burn him and no one will want it!”
I was dumbfounded, what was this play? She was the one who said she wanted to burn the notebook, and she was the one who refused to burn it now.
And what was wrong with Zhao Zichen, why did he want the notebook too?
I probably didn’t know my mother any better than Zhao Zichen, and I didn’t say anything, trying to see what was going on with Zhao Zichen.
Zhao Zichen wasn’t subdued at this point, frowning and asking, “Have you read the contents of the diary? You can’t burn this stuff.”
Zhang Mei laughed loudly, “In the eyes of you jianghu people, what can Ji Yanran burn? She is a heavenly immortal, and you all hate to have a smelly sock she uses back. Ugh!”
Both of Zhang Mei’s hands were badly burned, but as if she couldn’t care less, Su Xiaoqiang looked angry and turned around to scold me, “My mother is like this, ask me tomorrow if you have anything to say, let her go to the doctor first!”
I ignored Su Xiaoqiang and Zhao Zichen continued, “Then why did you leave this notebook behind? Auntie Zhang, it’s too dangerous for you to keep it, if the Eight Families find out about it they might kill you. Why don’t you give it to me for safekeeping first.”
What the hell is this thing? I felt that the story on my mother was so thick that what I knew was only very superficial.
Hurt so that Zhang Mei couldn’t care less about her face, she simply pooh-poohed, “I’ll believe your bullsh*t? This notebook is right here with me, and no one is going to get it! You jianghu go and guess, fight, fight, this is your retribution for killing my husband!”
Being said that made Zhao Zichen very unhappy, he nodded with a black face and took a few steps back, saying to Shi Sheng, “Boss Shi, why don’t we talk somewhere else.”
“Huh? This, this good show is not going to be watched? I still think it’s pretty good.”
“Come on, our business is more important. You’ll have to inform your men about putting me in charge of a transport line all of a sudden.”
When Shi Sheng saw Zhao Zichen leave without looking back, he had to reluctantly follow him out, and before he left, he stressed, “If Zhang Chao dies, make sure you call me to let me know.”
Zhao Zichen’s attitude was really strange.
I felt that he knew a lot about my mother from early on, and had been contacting me perhaps not only to kill Jiang Ming, but also because I was Ji Yanran’s son.
Although Shi Sheng has left, but there are still many security guards in the room, Zhang Mei knows my skills, almost half of the security guards in the night to come through.
With so many security guards around, Chen Yu Zhou and Zhang Mei were not afraid of me, but they did not know that the number of people was nothing to me. No special forces soldier would choose to fight one person against N people at the same time when they are in the thick of it.
Seeing that I was not moving, Su Xiaoqiang urged again, “Zhang Chao, do you have any conscience? My mum raised you so much, her hand is swollen like this, and you still won’t let me open some so she can go see a doctor.”
“Shut up, why didn’t you say anything when they were trying to kill me?”
Su Xiaoqiang shouted, “They were just scaring you, how could they really kill you.”
I had nothing to say to this fool and turned to Zhang Mei and continued, “You give me the notebook.”
“Dream on.”
It was impossible to snatch it directly from her hand, this woman was driven crazy really capable of anything, and this matter could not be done the hard way yet.
I sneered and said, “Zhang Mei, if you don’t want your daughter to be a widow, you’d better give me the notebook.”
Su Xiaoqiang glanced at Chen Yu Zhou and asked Zhang Mei, “Mom, what’s going on here?”
Zhang Mei and Chen Yu Zhou were both confused, and the two looked at each other, when Chen Yu Zhou said, “Zhang Chao, don’t try to swindle Hu, I don’t eat this. You’d better think about your own death first.”
I directly ignored the pistol he was holding and said, “Oh, don’t scare people with that thing, even if I let you take another step forward and put a gun to my head, I guarantee I won’t let you hurt a hair, just pretending to be weak to coax you to play, you still take it seriously. Chen Yu Zhou, I found the thing that Lin Kang and Lin Fang hid for you.”
Zhang Mei and Su Xiaoqiang looked on, also full of confusion.
But the expression on Chen Yu Zhou’s face was wonderful, because he knew what I meant by that statement.
“Zhang, Zhang Chao, you fart!”
“Are you dying to know where the hell Lin Fang hid someone that could keep you and the police from finding them for so many years?” I asked.
Chen Yu Zhou turned pale and the corners of his mouth trembled, “What are you talking about, I don’t know. Where the hell did that crazy B*tch hide people?”
“On the ceiling of the flat where she lived, she wrapped it in many layers of cling film and then wrapped it in deodorant. The body was air dried when I found it.”
“You’re f*cking bullsh*tting me! You can’t, never ……”
I continued, “Do you know why your father died at Lin Kang’s hands? Lin Kang used this corpse to threaten you, he was trying to help you take care of Lin Kang. Originally he had already killed Lin Kang, but Lin Kang was lucky not to die before he ended up killing your father. You can blame Lin Kang, you can blame yourself for this, it has nothing to do with me. Chen Yu Zhou, in the end, how much do I hate you? What happened in high school is over, and then for Lin Fang, I now have a woman I really like and will not steal Lin Fang from you again. Why do you still want to dwell on it.”
This corpse was Chen Yu Zhou’s biggest weakness, because of this he had been bullied by Lin Kang so badly that at this moment he was backing away in fear, his face so pale that he did not look like a living person.
Su Xiaoqiang held Chen Yu Zhou: “Honey, what’s wrong with you, don’t scare me. Zhang Chao, you’re nuts, get lost, we don’t want to see you!”
Chen Yu Zhou held the corner of the table to calm himself down a little, he bit the bullet: “That was the body found at Lin Fang’s house, what does it have to do with me? Stop spouting blood here.”
