Chapter 1591

After answering this, the proprietress looked at Chen Ang with a smile.

"Why did you suddenly ask such a question? Did something happen, or did Zhao Gao say something to you that made you have doubts about this matter?"

Although she was smiling, her eyes were extremely oppressive.

Chen Ang was not affected, but stated the reason he had prepared long ago.

"It was Zhao Gao who told me that it was you who trapped him on South Mountain, which is why he couldn't get out, so he hates you very much and even told me to be careful of you, saying you are not sincerely wanting to help me at all!"

Hearing these words, the proprietress suddenly grinned.

She did not rush to explain anything, but looked at Chen Ang and asked a question.

"You can feel my help toward you; if I wanted to harm you, would you be completely unaware? You are a god-level soul; it is impossible for you to have no judgment at all!"

Chen Ang was not persuaded by her few words, but continued to persist.

"Nothing is impossible; perhaps you are just trying to boil a frog in warm water. If that's the case, many things can be explained!"

The proprietress was not angry, and the smile on her face became even brighter.

"You were brainwashed by Zhao Gao, which is why you believe such nonsense. You don't even think about it; if there were really any conflict between us, would I let you go to South Mountain?"

"He would say that, he must have some purpose, or he has some ulterior motives!"

After saying this, she stared closely at Chen Ang and asked a question.

"If I am not mistaken, Zhao Gao should have asked you to do something, right?"

Chen Ang admitted everything frankly, without any concealment.

"He said, let me find a vase in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion and then break it. As for other things, he didn't say, nor did he ask me to do them!"

The moment she heard this, the proprietress's face changed instantly, and she suddenly became irritable, completely losing the calm and composed feeling she had at the beginning.

Seeing her suddenly go crazy, Chen Ang was a bit strange and asked in confusion.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Facing his confusion, the proprietress explained.

"That vase is my everything, and it is even more the entirety of this black market. Once it is damaged, it will leave me with nothing. This Zhao Gao wants to destroy me!"

"But it doesn't matter; even if you wanted to destroy that vase, you wouldn't be able to find it. I have hidden it in a mysterious place; apart from me, no one will know its whereabouts!"

Chen Ang had not originally thought about doing this; he would not completely trust the proprietress, and he would not easily trust Zhao Gao either.

Who knew what his intentions were or what he was asking him to do?

If he hadn't told the proprietress about this matter, he wouldn't have known that this would be the consequence.

If he had really done so, one could imagine what the consequences would be.

It was precisely because of this that he was also full of resentment toward Zhao Gao in his heart.

He had already planned to help him, yet he dared to scheme against him like this, wanting to use him as a gun.

But his wishful thinking still failed; he would absolutely not do that, and everything would just end up as nothing; there would be no chance at all!
