Chapter 131: Volume 1 Chapter 131 Tenant (19)
"I was immature before, I offended you, don't blame me; that day I ran into something unpleasant at the nightclub, on my way back I stepped on a trash bag and almost fell to my death, I suddenly got flustered." Li Dachao lowered his eyes, nervously apologizing to her.
Jiang Zhi lightly laughed, "It's fine, I know, Big Brother Dachao."
Li Dachao breathed a sigh of relief, then seeing her complexion not good, hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? Why is your complexion so bad?"
Jiang Zhi waved her hand, pleading: "Big Brother Dachao, could you do me a favor?"
Li Dachao blinked, asking: "What is it?"
Jiang Zhi took out the note hidden in the seam of her waist, and immediately handed it to him: "Give this to the tenant of Room 604."
Li Dachao froze upon hearing it, his face showing fear.
He was deeply afraid of the Room 604 tenant, because once while returning home after his day shift, he saw that tenant appear like a ghost at the door and then disappear.
Another time, he personally witnessed him killing someone, which was terrifying.
Jiang Zhi thought for a moment and said: "You just need to slip this note into his door crack; you don't have to hand it to him personally."
Li Dachao, who had finally managed to enter the Underground Casino, clearly knew he lacked an opportunity; aware that her relationship with Shi Xuan was not ordinary, if he helped her, his future would surely be limitless.
He hesitated repeatedly, then reached out and took it.
"Good! I promise you."
Jiang Zhi thanked him and returned to the spectator platform.
It was break time.
When she saw Shi Xuan walking down from the stage, her eyes lit up and she followed him.
Walking to a corner, Shi Xuan was stopped by a woman; seeing this, Jiang Zhi immediately halted her steps.
"Handsome guy, I've been waiting for you here a long time." The woman was extremely beautiful, her dark red dress tracing the perfect curve of her chest, her lines graceful and lovely, she was the most famous beauty in the entertainment industry, having just won a Best Actress award.
She was also the only daughter of a famous domestic enterprise CEO, her status extremely high; standing beside Shi Xuan they were quite a match, the only downside possibly being that she is three years older than him.
The youth's figure was honed by a faint golden light, tall and straight, his expression cold without a hint of warmth: "Miss Lin, is there something you need from me?"
Lin Qing was patient with the person she liked, covering her mouth she chuckled: "I'd like to treat you to a drink."
Shi Xuan spoke concisely: "Sorry, I have something else to do."
Having said that, he turned to leave.
"Beautiful lady, what are you doing here? Come drink with us."
"Boss Lu, don't scare her,"
Jiang Zhi, who had been focusing on listening at the corner, turned her head and saw two people standing before her.
If she remembered correctly, these two were two of the thirteen people, one named Hai Yunze, the other Lu Yuan.
Both were not easy to deal with.
The abdominal pain made her mind foggy; she lowered her head to glance at the time on her watch.
It was actually 1 a. m.; less than six hours remained before she would leave this world.
Jiang Zhi staggered backward, almost falling; an arm crossed behind her waist, her vision blurred, and her whole body fell into the embrace of the person behind her.
She smelled a familiar scent of soapwort, her pupils dazed, and she did not regain her senses for a long time.
"Young Master Shi, do you know each other?" Hai Yunze asked in surprise.
Lu Yuan's eyes held resentment, tightly staring at the beauty in his embrace, his heart burning: "Young Master Shi, let her go to me; I've lost so much to you in the gambling games."
Shi Xuan took off his suit jacket and covered her head with it, blocking all covetous gazes.
"Sorry, she's my lover, I can't let go." He held Jiang Zhi tightly in his arms, possessive to the extreme, "I'll go first."
Having said that, he led her away from their sight.
Lu Yuan angrily scratched his head, his neatly styled hair instantly turning into a bird's nest.
"All the good things are taken by this bastard! Damn! This kid, so young, is actually a life winner!"
"His wife and career both thriving! Damn! When he was eighteen he was still digging bird eggs out of trees."
Hai Yunze narrowed his eyes and said: "I never expected Shi Xuan to have a lover; the files only said he had a deceased mother."
Lu Yuan snorted coldly: "He's hidden it well."
Lin Qing, standing there having witnessed all this, gritted her teeth in jealousy: "Who exactly is that woman? She got ahead of me!"
—
Inside the VIP lounge.
The suit jacket covering her head was removed, light poured into her view, the youth's tall figure completely enveloping her.
"……Who brought you in here?" Shi Xuan frowned.
Jiang Zhi slightly narrowed her eyes, raising her chin: "Couldn't I have come on my own?"
Shi Xuan was very clear about the Underground Casino's rules.
Without an invitation, one cannot enter, unless……
"Did my father come looking for you?" His black pupils flashed with a chill.
This was the only reason.
He thought of something, his face changed, he stepped forward and grabbed her arm, asking in a low voice: "Are you injured?"
Jiang Zhi helplessly said: "I'm fine; he sent me to kill you, aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
Shi Xuan embarrassingly avoided her gaze, his softly curled middle part resting on his brow; the fierce, intimidating look he had in the gambling den now showed a hint of the youthful vigor that should have been his.
"Then do you want to kill me?"
Hearing that, Jiang Zhi thought and shook her head: "I don't want to; I want you to live well."
In this dark dungeon, he crawled out of a pile of corpses; every step was extremely perilous, a slight misstep would plunge him into an abyss.
At this time, Jiang Zhi had no task to raise his Hatred Value, so she would not do anything that would upset him.
She wanted, before leaving, to watch him complete his revenge.
Shi Xuan's throat was dry, the hand in his sleeve clenched into a fist, the corners of his eyes gradually reddened.
He sometimes thought, if he were just that trash-picking boy, it would be fine.
Every day bringing her food, taking out her trash.
Those days were his happiest memory.
That's enough.
Having that memory is enough.
They were never people of the same world.
His staying by her side would only bring her danger.
"I'll send you out." Shi Xuan said slowly.
Jiang Zhi shook her head: "I don't want to go out."
Shi Xuan suddenly lifted his eyes, voice hoarse: "Why?"
Jiang Zhi lifted her skirt and walked to the sofa to sit down, a faint silver-white light plated over her delicate brows and eyes, dazzling.
"Because I want to accompany you for one night; tomorrow I will move away, after that we won't see each other again."
Shi Xuan unintentionally eased his breath, his tense pupils lingered a moment, a sour feeling welled up in his heart.
He opened his mouth, the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat.
What right does he have to ask where she's moving to?
A person like him...
He is forever unworthy to step into her world.
After a long silence, the boy standing behind her said a soft "good."
Jiang Zhi watched his back, the fingers resting on the sofa slightly tightened.
In all worlds, Shi Xuan is the most human-like one among the villain Yun Jin.
