Chapter 30 The Two Leaders of the Shadow Department
Zhan Hui felt her breathing become harder and harder. Her vision began to blur. She didn’t dare move. She obediently let the other party squeeze the air in her throat bit by bit. She was about to suffocate.
Zhan Jingtian let go and slapped her to the ground. Zhan Hui finally felt her breath and lay on the ground, greedily breathing the hard-won air.
“Cough, cough, cough, cough…” She clutched her chest and coughed several times before she could stop herself.
The angry man in front of her was like an Asura from hell. She did not dare to look at him directly.
Zhan Hui straightened up with difficulty and knelt straight in Zhan Jingtian’s direction again.
Zhan Jingtian had taken a gleaming silver pistol from a drawer and was casually playing with it. His eyes were unhappy, and he was looking down at the delicate gun in his hand.
When Zhan Qiang saw this scene, he knew that no one could save Zhan Hui today.
Zhan Jingtian unhurriedly loaded the gun in his hand. The crisp sound was especially obvious in the quiet room.
Zhan Qiang bent his legs without hesitation and knelt in front of Zhan Jingtian. “Second Young Master, Zhan Hui did make a mistake, but there’s something else about this matter. Second Young Master, please make a decision after hearing it. She doesn’t deserve to die!”
Zhan Jingtian raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the man at his feet. His expression did not change. “Is that so?”
He looked like he really wanted to know what was going on.
Zhan Qiang lowered his head and said respectfully, “Second Young Master, the person who is with Miss Zhong is her personal bodyguard. The two of them have long been engaged privately. Zhan Hui has always been diligently monitoring Miss Zhong, but she can’t enter the Zhong family’s courtyard. As long as Miss Zhong enters the Zhong family, she won’t be able to find out anything.”
“That man is Zhong Xin’s personal bodyguard?” Zhan Jingtian asked meaningfully.
“That’s right. Moreover, Miss Zhong is almost three months pregnant. Logically speaking, it’s impossible for the Zhong family to not know about this. I suspect that they are deliberately hiding it! That’s why Zhan Hui hasn’t discovered it.”
“Pa!”
Before Zhan Qiang could finish, he was slapped so hard that he saw stars.
“You have some nerve, Zhan Qiang.”
Zhan Jingtian pulled back. The gun had gone somewhere.
He lowered his head and looked down at the two people in front of him. Zhan Qiang and Zhan Hui were both leaders of the Shadow Department. They had suffered a lot to get to where they were today. Both their skills and brains were outstanding in the Shadow Department.
After all, the entire Shadow Department was a servant nurtured by the Zhan family. Now, in order to save Zhan Hui, he actually dared to trample on the dignity of the Zhan family. He was quite bold.
SS
Zhan Jingtian and Zhong Xin had a business marriage. The two families had no feelings for each other. This marriage was only maintained by the word “interest”.
Zhan Hui had been following Zhong Xin closely. It seemed that when the two of them were together, they must have been in a safe place that the Zhan family could not reach.
In the entire capital, there was only the Zhong family’s residence. Zhong Xin was three months pregnant now, and she was with his bodyguard day and night. He did not believe that the Zhong family was unaware of this matter!
This was not as simple as Zhong Xin being bold. Instead, the entire Zhong family dared to cause trouble under the Zhan family’s nose and challenge their dignity. Zhan Qiang had panicked and blurted it out in order to save someone. As a manager of the New Special Group and Shadow Department, Zhan Jingtian naturally knew what was going on, but he didn’t need anyone to remind him. Especially not a slave who was trying to save someone!
If he had not repeatedly emphasized that Zhan Hui did not deserve to die, the Second Young Master might not have been so angry. Thinking of this, Zhan Qiang was a little annoyed. His words had added fuel to the fire.
“I overstepped my boundaries! I’m willing to be punished!”
Zhan Jingtian’s eyes were cold as he said emotionlessly, “Your life is still useful. I’ll let you live for now and not go to the ancestral hall to receive your punishment. Do it yourself.” “Yessir!”
Zhan Qiang’s face was calm. As soon as he finished speaking, he drew a sharp dagger from his belt. The dagger glowed with a cold silver light. Without hesitation, he stabbed it into his thigh.
Just as the tip of the blade was about to sink into flesh, a white hand reached out and grabbed the blade. The sharp blade instantly cut into the other party’s palm. Bright red blood slid down the blade, staining Zhan Qiang’s black pants dark.
Seeing this, Zhan Jingtian’s lips curled up slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of mockery.
