Chapter 1073: This is a Battle of Wits and Bravery (2)
Although Zhang Ke wasn’t weak, simultaneously fighting against a couple of members of the terrorist organization whose abilities were above her made her not as strong as she wished.
“Teacher, I don’t regret letting you escape. I was already prepared to die for you. It was fine as long as you could live.”
After she was done speaking, Zhang Ke lowered her head. There was nothing more for her to say.
Ling Tianya looked at her. She also didn’t say anything. After a while, she stood up and handed Zhang Ke a key.
Zhang Ke deftly caught the key and stared at the key to her house. “Teacher…”
“This is the key you gave Small One before. Go home. You no longer need to stay here.” Ling Tianya calmly said, her tone expressionless.
Zhang Ke was shocked, and she stood up, excited, “Teacher, have you forgiven me?”
Ling Tianya did not answer Zhang Ke’s question but said, “Right now, your house must be quite messy. In order to find you, Small One and the others ransacked it.”
Ling Tianya opened the door to the bas.e.m.e.nt. “Go. I will tell the guards at the door that you are allowed to leave. No one here will make it hard for you.”
As she spoke, Ling Tianya left the bas.e.m.e.nt.
Zhang Ke stood in her original spot and looked at the door in a daze. She had mixed feelings. She understood Ling Tianya. Right now, Ling Tianya was releasing her in order to repay the fact that she had also released her. However, that didn’t mean that she truly forgave her. Ling Tianya was someone who had a hard time trusting someone. However, when she trusts that person, she trusts her entirely.
Similarly, one the person she trusted betrayed her, it would be very difficult for her to trust that person again.
Zhang Ke knew that right now, Ling Tianya was struggling in her heart, struggling a lot.
It was fine. She could wait. She would allow her actions to make Ling Tianya trust her again.
Thinking this, Zhang Ke tightly grasped the key in her hand and left the bas.e.m.e.nt in a few strides.
Teacher hadn’t deceived her. Although everyone in the manor stared at her in anger, they only stared at her and did not make things difficult for her.
Zhang Ke knew that Ling Tianya had definitely ordered this. Otherwise, upon seeing her, these people not only would physically hit her, but they would also probably curse and spit at her.
Zhang Ke’s heart didn’t feel good. In the past, whenever she went to the Ruan mansion, whenever these people saw her, they would enthusiastically call her a.s.sistant Zhang, help her carry things and chat with her.
Now, however…
Zhang Ke’s heart was incredibly distressed. However, she still walked out with her head held high. She needed to let these people know that she, Zhang Ke, could still proudly walk in the Ruan Family manor’s courtyard.
When the manor guard saw Zhang Ke, he immediately opened the gate and glared at Zhang Ke as she walked out. Then, he quickly closed the gate.
There was an SUV parked outside. This car was Ling Tianya’s. However, Zhang Ke was the one who always drove it. Since Ling Tianya told someone to park the car here, that meant that Zhang Ke could continue driving it.
Originally, Zhang Ke had been able to lift her chest proudly but upon seeing the SUV, she immediately began crying.
“Teacher… I’m sorry…”
Zhang Ke was silently sobbing. At this time, a large hand reached toward her. Zhang Ke subconsciously quickly avoided it and accurately grabbed the hand before looking at the person it belonged to, her gaze strict,
Zhang Ke thought that the person who had attacked her was a member of the KSI. After looking at him, she was shocked. It was Big One.
Big One glared coldly at Zhang Ke. “The young miss doesn’t need your apology!”
“Leng Feng…”Zhang Ke released Big One’s hand and stood there uncomfortably. It was as if they had returned to the past.
