Cheating Marriage - C198
I’m scared
Li Zhen looked at me expressionlessly. Her eyes were completely different from the look in front of me now, I really wanted to know what kind of bewitching medicine Cheng Ruojun had given her to make her love Cheng Ruojun to this extent, and I had already decided that after this matter, I would not be related to Li Zhen anymore. She should be glad that I did not love Cheng Ruojun anymore, or else I would definitely let her …
“That’s what you saw.” I wanted to shake off Li Zhen’s hand, but I felt that I shouldn’t show it too clearly. Thus, I pushed her away without leaving a trace, and pulled my hand out, “The factory has more or less stabilized now, and the medical fees for aunt’s side have also decreased. I think you should consider the big matter of your life, do you need me to introduce them to you?”
“Alright.” I replied as I thought in my heart. Obviously, Cheng Ruojun didn’t express anything, yet she had thought about many things, and she thinks that she hid it well, but we all know the truth of her feelings. I really don’t know if we should call her innocent, or if she has a scheming mind.
“You’re going to stay in the control room today, right?” Li Zhen said, “Actually the goods have already been assembled, tomorrow when we load them all on the vehicles and send them to the warehouses near the factories, a majority of the workers have already returned, only a few people are left to finish the work.”
“Yes.” “No,” I said.
Li Zhen looked at me and said, “Don’t worry, nothing will happen to you.”
But the more Li Zhen said this, the more panicking my heart became.
Li Zhen’s words just now seemed to be urging me to go back, but I had already made up my mind to stay here.
Li Zhen brought me to the duty room. Inside, I roughly tidied it up, there were even snacks and new bedding.
“I’ll stay here with you.” Li Zhen said as she sat on the bed.
I nodded my head and looked at the monitor screen, because the screen was new, I could see clearly for the time being, the people in the factory were truly as Li Zhen had said, there were very few people, and most of the remaining people were resting as well.
“Sit here.” Li Zhen laughed and said, “It’s really nothing. My small factory has nothing that can be harmed by others.”
I looked at Li Zhen and said, “Have you forgotten about your uncle?”
Li Zhen’s expression instantly fell, she said, “That matter is already over, they didn’t bother me anymore.”
I nodded, Li Ling’s figure appearing in my mind, I don’t know how he is doing right now, maybe he already went to study.
“Oh, right. My cousin got a serious illness earlier, and after he recovered, he even asked me about your news.” Li Zhen said.
“Is that so?” It seems that after Li Ling was beaten up, he lied to the public that he was sick.
“He seems to like you.” Li Zhen said with a smile. Her tone of voice sounded like she was joking, but her words seemed to contain some other meaning, like jealousy.
“How is this possible? I’m so much older than him.” I stared at the display screen and said, hoping to get Li Zhen’s attention to this side, “Your place is really quiet, will you be scared at night?”
“I’m not afraid.” Li Zhen said, “Li Ling likes beautiful girls since young. Since you’re so beautiful, it’s natural for men to like you.”
“So?” I turned to look at her, and her face showed the expression I least wanted to see on her face. Her face seemed to be twisted, her eyes full of resentment, and I couldn’t understand what I had done to make her so hostile to me.
“I’m sorry.” Suddenly, Li Zhen apologized, “I’m sorry, I can’t control myself. Standing by my side, I always feel ashamed of myself, you have a husband who loves you and loves money, and he’s also so good-looking, not only does Cheng Tun like you, even Li Ling who hasn’t seen you a few times is attracted to you, I …”
I looked at Li Zhen and said, “What you see are only the surface.”
“I’ll go out first.” Li Zhen said, “I suddenly remembered that there is a problem with the goods, I will go and confirm.”
Li Zhen left the room. She walked very quickly, as if something was chasing after her.
I stared at her back, the desire in my heart to help her and become friends with her gradually turning colder. Maybe what I need right now isn’t a friend, but a comrade that can take advantage of each other, just like how Xiao Li was before.
Perhaps when I crawled out of the mud, it wasn’t suitable for me to be friends with someone like Li Zhen. It was just like how I could get along with Xiao Li, but couldn’t get along with him.
I stopped thinking about all this nonsense and looked at the screen again. Nothing had changed.
I didn’t know how long it had been, but I had almost finished my snacks, and the workers on duty in the factory were coming home.
I glanced down at my phone and saw that it was one o’clock in the morning and almost everyone was asleep.
I was also kind of sleepy, but I persisted on not sleeping. At the same time, I looked for Li Zhen on the screen, but I couldn’t find her. She was one of the people in this factory, so it should be easy for her to find a place that the surveillance videos couldn’t reach.
“Pah!” Suddenly I heard something hit the glass, and I looked up, startled, on this quiet night.
It was the sound of the rain. I was relieved.
It was raining outside, and it was not small, but I was startled by the sound of the rain, so even though I was sure it was raining, my heart was still a little unsteady. I covered my chest with my hands, probably because it was too quiet.
I tried my best to calm myself down, to not think about the ghost stories I had heard in the past, but I still remembered the scene of Gargle climbing down from the attic in the ‘Curse’. I was in the factory, and although there were people there, the factory was too big and it was in the middle of nowhere.
“Why the hell am I here alone?” I regretted it. Perhaps all the thoughts that had flashed through my mind had predicted that I would face such a situation.
I picked up my phone and subconsciously dialed Xia Ze’s number, and the phone was immediately picked up.
