Ye Ying was no longer afraid that the two of them would rekindle their old feelings when they met. The credibility of this old relationship was not high.
However, Chen Xiang’s mental state was really terrifying. If she did something extreme, she would definitely not be able to bear it.
Although she didn’t know who was behind Chen Xiang to stop Madam Zou from making things difficult for her, she didn’t think she could scare Zou Bai either.
Zou Bai was definitely not a kind person. His killing was real. Back then, the Zou Family had stopped him from making any news, but the upper-cla.s.s society knew what he had done.
No matter what Ye Ying was thinking, she could not close the door at this time. She could only pray that Chen Xiang could be normal for a while longer and not cause any trouble.
At the same time, she was also considering resigning. Even though she had spent a lot of effort on Chen Xiang, she could not care less. She could not work with a lunatic.
Ever since she found out that Chen Xiang had been lying to her, Ye Ying’s feelings for her had faded.
“Please come in,” Ye Ying said with a stiff smile on her face.
When Zou Bai and Jiang An entered, Chen Xiang, who was sitting on the sofa, turned her head to look at them. An excited expression immediately appeared on her face. She stood up and wanted to walk over.
However, when she saw Jiang An standing beside Zou Bai, the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
“Chen Xiang, I came here today because I have something to discuss with you,” Zou Bai said.
Chen Xiang smiled and said, “You can talk about anything you want, but you can only talk to me alone.”
As she spoke, her gaze landed on Jiang An. It was obvious what she meant.
After Ye Ying heard this, she felt terrible. Jiang An was Zou Bai’s real girlfriend, and she was from the Jiang family of Xiyun. She was also the future heir. Chen Xiang would definitely offend someone if she said this.
Jiang An didn’t pretend to be generous and give in. Instead, she turned to Zou Bai and said, “Do you need me to leave?”
Zou Bai grabbed her hand tightly. “I don’t need to keep anything from you. You don’t have to leave.”
Chen Xiang’s expression immediately turned ugly. Her eyes were filled with tears, as if she was about to cry in the next second, but she stood upright to maintain her dignity.
Zou Yi was finally relieved. It seemed that his master had already chosen Miss Jiang and would not waver.
Zou Bai said to Chen Xiang, “I won’t talk to you alone. If you can’t accept it, I have other ways.”
Zou Bai had always done things in the simplest and crudest way. It was already very polite of him to inform Chen Xiang in advance like this because of her father. Otherwise, she would have been arrested and sent to the secret guards for interrogation already. She would definitely have spat out everything she knew.
Chen Xiang clenched her fists and lowered her head, thinking about something.
Ye Ying was really afraid that if she suddenly went crazy, these two burly men in black would restrain them. She didn’t even want to think about what the Zou Family’s power would do to them.
After a while, Chen Xiang looked up again and said, “Okay, what do you want to talk about?”
Zou Bai pulled Jiang An to the sofa and sat down. He gestured for Zou Yi to bring a blanket over and covered her legs.
After completing this series of actions, he asked, “What’s your relationship with the Church of Eternal Night?”
“What Church of Eternal Night?” Chen Xiang played dumb.
Zou Bai’s gaze was sharp. “My mother saw you with the ring of the Church, and you also said that it’s your backing. Could this matter be fake?”
“It’s just that someone gave me this ring and said that I could use it to scare people if I had no choice. As for what it is, I don’t know.” Chen Xiang shook her head.
In front of Zou Bai, she had completely changed her appearance. She became obedient and even had a weak and helpless posture, like a pitiful little girl.
Jiang An could tell that Chen Xiang liked Zou Bai, but Zou Bai probably didn’t notice it. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have brought her here. His description of the past was also very frank.
If anyone else saw Chen Xiang like this, they would definitely pity her.
When such a beauty looked at you with teary eyes, one’s heart would almost melt.
Unfortunately, Zou Bai wasn’t moved at all. Other than his family, he didn’t care about any other woman in the world.
“You’re wrong. Since you don’t know anything, why are you still taking it out so recklessly?” Zou Bai sized up Chen Xiang. “You must know something.”
Zou Bai had been learning from the shadow guards since he was young, so he could easily detect the loopholes in human language. Chen Xiang’s words were useless to him..
