Chapter 997 - Something Terrible Had Happened (2/2)

There was something odd about Zhai Hua’s tone. Qiao Nan asked lightly, “Sister Zhai Hua, what’s wrong?”

“I feel like killing someone!” The voice from the other side of the phone was ominous and stifling. It made her very uncomfortable.

Qiao Nan’s heart skipped a beat. “Sister Zhai Hua, stop scaring me. This is a lawful society. If you kill someone, you have to pay a life for a life. It’s not worth it. You must remember that your own life is more important than anyone else’s life. What is wrong? Do you want to talk about it?”

She had known Zhai Hua for a very long time. Regardless of whether she was happy or angry, she had never spoken of killing someone in that tone of hers. Qiao Nan knew that she was serious about it and she had the intention of doing it.

Since she knew her well, she was particularly worried and scared.

Something terrible must have happened to Sister Zhai Hua for her to have such radical thoughts.

Zhai Hua was overcome by rage and had lost her senses. She broke into tears at Qiao Nan’s gentle words of comfort.

Thereafter, she burst into loud sobs.

Even though she was on the other end of the phone, Qiao Nan could tell that Zhai Hua must be heartbroken and had given up all hopes.

For a moment, Qiao Nan opened her mouth but no words came out. She held the phone to her ear and listened to Zhai Hua’s heart-wrenching sobs on the other end of the phone.

“I… I am so stupid. He lied to me. I hate him to the core. I want him dead!” Since a young age, n.o.body dared to deceive her or bully her.

She always thought that Wei De could give her the love that she could not get from her family. She thought that in this world, he was the one person most suited for her, that he treated her best.

But it turned out that she was wrong. She was terribly wrong.

Everyone could tell the truth except for her.

Qiao Nan was worried sick. “Did the entire information end up with you?!”

Qiao Nan remembered that she asked Zhai Sheng to get someone to investigate Wei De three months ago.

A season had pa.s.sed, but this matter had to be taken slowly. Qiao Nan was not in a hurry to know the results. She did not hurry Zhai Sheng but waited for the person that he hired to get to the bottom of the matter. She would not allow Wei De to hide anything from Zhai Hua and she would not accuse him of anything as well.

Since she wanted to investigate Wei De, she had to make sure that she was fair and objective. She would not be subjective or mix truths with lies.

Qiao Nan might not be anxious. However, she did not expect that the information would be handed to Zhai Hua directly.

This was taboo and could result in serious trouble.

Right now, something serious had indeed happened.

If the results of the investigation were not something that Zhai Hua could accept, there would be two possible scenarios when Zhai Hua saw the results.

One of the scenarios was that she refused to believe the results.

Zhai Hua would feel that the results were fabricated so that she would break up with Wei De.

The other scenario was exactly like how Zhai Hua behaved right now— she lost her sanity and acted irrationally, having radical thoughts.

Qiao Nan rubbed her stomach. Why did the person that Brother Zhai hired turn out to be such a greenhorn? He did not even know such basic rules.

It was alright if he did not know.

Brother Zhai ordered him to do the investigation. After completing the investigation, he should have reported to Brother Zhai right away and handed the results to him.
