”But …” But, ”Tao Ran still looked confused,” but, why, why are they watching me?
”Because, Grandpa, he … ”He …” Tao Tian bit his lips, unable to continue.
”Yao Yao, what's wrong?” Tao Ran lightly patted the back of Tao Tian's hand.
While the two of them were talking, Irene quietly appeared in Sunshine Restaurant.
”Miss, do you have an appointment?” The waiter politely asked.
”Sorry, I'm looking for someone.” Eileen stroked the Black Suo on her nose, looking around while she answered the waiter's question absentmindedly.
”Oh, may I ask who you are?” The waiter dutifully continued to ask.
”Ah, there's no need to trouble you. I'll just look for myself.” Irene was still observing the surroundings, rushing in step by step.
Irene stood in the middle of the dining room and looked around, trying to find Tao Tian's figure. However, even though she had scoured almost all the corners, she still couldn't see half of Tao Tian's figure.
”Why is there no sign of Tao Tian?” Irene said to herself, ”Did I hear wrong?” The day was so far away, it was normal to mishear it.
Thinking this way, Irene couldn't help but feel disappointed. She was very sure that Tao Tian and Qing Qing were indeed conspiring against each other that day. What, exactly, would it be?
Irene was unwilling to give up, looking around again, but in the corner, she saw Qing Qing. Yes, it was Qing Qing. She had been to Tao's house once and recognized Qing Qing's clothes.
Irene quietly walked toward their table, but didn't dare to get too close, so she could only choose a place that wasn't too far away and sat down, listening attentively to their conversation.
On the other side, Tao Tian was in a hurry to explain the situation within a limited time, so he asked his older brother for help. On the other side, Tao Tian was in a hurry to explain the situation within a limited time, so he asked his older brother for help.
”Big brother, do you know, grandpa, he … ”He …” His grandfather's position in his brother's heart was unshakable. Although big brother knew some of his grandfather's methods, it was difficult for him to agree with him. But after all these years of bringing up and raising grandpa, big brother's feelings for grandpa were also very deep. It was just that the night before she got married, he had always been very respectful towards grandpa.
”Hurry up and tell me. Did grandpa ask you to do some tasks again?” Seeing how Tao Tian seemed to want to say something, Tao Ran guessed a bit.
Tao Tian didn't reply, but only nodded his head. She didn't know how to tell her brother. Would he feel sad about her grandfather's threats? Would he feel worse than he did?
”What is it?” Tao Tian seemed to have noticed that something was amiss, so he asked.
”Grandfather, let me … kill …” Tao Tian struggled to adjust his voice. ”Lei Zichen …” Tao Tian seemed to have exhausted all of his strength in order to clearly say the last few words.
”What?” Tao Ran widened his eyes as his hands froze in place as if he had lost all consciousness.
Not only Tao Ran, but also Irene who was sitting beside him and eavesdropping on their conversation.
She couldn't hear them, just stared at their lips.
When she saw 'Qing Qing's' slaying mouth of Lei Zichen, she was so shocked that she almost let out a cry. Luckily, she covered her mouth with her hands in time.
”Tao Tian, ah, Tao Tian, you really are the one who wanted to harm me, Brother Zirai.” Elin was so angry that she almost stomped her foot. However, she was afraid of being discovered. After all, her position was very dangerous.
She held herself back and continued to listen, unable to hear their voices. Irene was so anxious that she almost stretched her neck out.
He tried his best to see the shape of Qing Qing's mouth and guess what they were talking about.
Grandfather, when did I tell you …” Tao Ran came back to reality. He had gone through a lot and helped his grandfather to kill a lot of people. He had taken care of a lot of troublesome matters.
However, his grandfather had actually viciously asked Tao Tian to kill his new husband. This was quite a …
He had always known that his grandfather wasn't a simple person, but he just hadn't thought that he would be so heartless that he wouldn't even let his granddaughter go.
”The night before the wedding.” Tao Tian slowly enunciated each word as he looked at Tao Ran.
Tao Ran suddenly understood. No wonder Tao Tian looked so strange that day. So that's how it was. Oh god, what kind of suffering was his little sister going through?
”Grandfather also said that if I don't finish the mission within two months, then …” As he spoke to here, tears began to flow down Tao Tian's face.
She could accept that. After all, she was a girl, but as for her brother, for the sake of hatred, he actually held her brother's life in his hands. As a bargaining chip, who was left in his life?
”So what if he is? What do you think?” This was simply too ridiculous. He had asked his new wife to kill his beloved husband. Tao Ran's voice was a bit too loud, causing the surrounding people to continuously look at them. Tao Tian looked around and patted his older brother.
He tried his best to calm him down, because the truth would perhaps bring him closer to the brink of collapse.
