Chapter 822: Zuo Hancheng, Oath (2)
Zuo Hancheng’s gaze lingered on Anhao’s face. He looked at her for a long time but did not answer.
However, Anhao seemed to have seen his indifference and strategizing. He seemed to have never considered what she was worried about now, or perhaps, he seemed to have made full preparations.
Her considerations did not seem to be enough to cause any worry for the brother-in-law.
“As you can see, this isn’t a world where reason is the most important. If you solve problems purely with morality and reason, there won’t be any good results in the end.”Zuo Hancheng opened his mouth and looked at her. Anhao did not know why he was looking at her like that. He was looking at her with a gaze that she could not understand and had never seen before.
“Unless I have a trump card in my hand, a trump card that will prevent the other party from truly becoming my enemy.”
His voice was very soft, so soft that only Anhao could hear it.
There was still D here, but D just stood there quietly and did not interrupt.
Ace?
I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine, I’m fine,
Could she be thinking too much?
She blinked and looked at Zuo Hancheng’s gaze, which seemed normal. It was not the same gaze that she had felt earlier.
At this moment, someone suddenly came over from outside the car. The door was opened and a man in a black uniform stood outside and said respectfully,”Mr. Vllen, please get out of the car. Mr. Arel has been waiting for a long time.”
Anhao suddenly turned around and looked at the man in black uniform outside the car door.
Mr. Arel?
The American mafia G.o.dfather?
However, at this moment, D suddenly turned around and walked over. He said coldly,”Please tell Mr. Arel that Mr. Zuo has accepted your gift, but Mrs. Zuo is not feeling well. I’m afraid she can’t stay here for too long.”
Outside the car, wearing a black uniform, the man looked at the car and saw that the so-called Mrs. Zuo’s face was very bad. Although she was quite dissatisfied with their outspoken rejection, in the end, she still didn’t say more. She just nodded and said,”I’ll talk to Mr. Arel.”
D did not say anything else, nor did he turn around to look at Anhao and Zuo Hancheng. It was obvious that they had already made plans before they came.
No matter what the so-called gift was, he would just take a look. He would not interfere, not get involved, and not even meet him.
Anhao did not want Zuo Hancheng to have any more contact with that so-called Mr. Arel. Seeing D’s firm rejection, she was slightly relieved.
A few minutes later, the man in the black uniform came back and nodded politely at them. Then, he turned around and asked the others to open the door again so that they could leave safely.
Anhao did not expect Mr. Arel to let them leave safely.
It was not until the black limousine they were in really drove out of the manor that she opened the window and looked out. Then, she turned to look at Zuo Hancheng.”Is he really just letting us see how he helps us solve our problems? He doesn’t intend to force us to stay?”
Zuo Hancheng placed his hand on her shoulder. The warmth from his palm made her frozen heart slowly melt and return to normal.
Half a month later…
The day before they headed to New York, Zuo Hancheng brought Anhao to a place.
It was the villa area that J had brought her to.
Perhaps it was because of the heavy rain the day before yesterday, the originally hot weather finally had a comfortable coolness. Ever since Anhao was stabbed in the back by the gla.s.s, she often wore loose dresses that did not stick to her back. This was very different from her previous sporty style. The doctors and nurses who often took care of her recently thought that she was the kind of young girl. They asked people to buy many new clothes for her.
The air in the villa area was clean. There was not as much smoke and blood as in Mr. Arel’s manor after the explosion. Although no one had specially cleaned up the place for many years, it was still cleaned up as if someone was still living here.
She was brought here by J back then, and now it was Zuo Hancheng who brought her here. The two types of heart mirrors were no longer the same.
After walking for a while in the villa area, Anhao looked in the direction of the window where J had pointed a gun at her forehead through the French windows and said,””I heard that this villa area was originally your place?”
Zuo Hancheng glanced at her indifferently.”
Anhao’s mouth twitched. Why was a man so arrogant and calm? Wasn’t he rich?
Anhao walked in with him and found that the empty villas had been renovated and were very clean.
” These places that belong to you have never been destroyed by anyone. It seems that you have an unusual status in the hearts of those people. As a young man who had been involved in the underworld, only J and his gang have been hunting you down for so many years. Actually, if you think about it carefully, Zuo Hancheng, you are really successful. If it were anyone else who left this place just like that, I’m afraid they would have been killed the moment they stepped out of the United States.”
Anhao said as she looked around the villa area.
The last time he was not in the mood to visit, he suddenly felt that the scenery here was not bad. Compared to the white European-style villa he stayed in a few days ago, this place seemed much bigger.
Anhao’s heart leaped with joy when she thought about how her husband’s wealth was many times more than she had ever known and imagined.””In the past, I only felt that I was muddle-headed. Now, I really feel like I’m f * cking sucking up to a rich man!”
Zuo Hancheng suddenly stopped and glanced at her.””As a couple’s joint property, haven’t you thought about learning some financial and business management knowledge to help your husband carefully share these worldly possessions?”
“If you’re really willing to let me help you manage it, I’ll accept it even if I have to soak in an ocean of books every day from now on!”Anhao thought that he was joking, so she stretched out her arm and b.u.mped it against his arm while laughing. She said with a smile,””When you were young, you mixed into Wall Street’s financial industry and the American mafia’s sphere of influence. In the end, you did not even fall behind in your studies. Everything was so flawless. When you were young, other than Rongxue, did any other woman have such a romantic first love with you?”
Zuo Hancheng glanced at her indifferently.””When I was young? Am I not young now?”
“I mean, you were just in your early twenties ten years ago, or you were seventeen or eighteen years old. If you’re willing to tell me, I don’t mind listening!”
Anhao continued to give him an expression as if she was a good friend who should share his secrets with him. She b.u.mped his arm with her shoulder.
