It was difficult for Shen shengkong to truly treat him as an enemy. If he had let go earlier, or if he had gone a little overboard, their positions would not have been so unclear.
However, Qiao Qiao was the one with complicated feelings.
Luo Zelan turned around, pressed the hand holding the cigarette between her eyebrows, and said in a deep voice, " "Take good care of her."
"I will,"
In the hotel, Ming Siran hung up the phone and looked out the window at the gradually brightening sky, his eyes darkening slightly.
……
The curtains in the room were drawn, and the light was very dim.
Luo Qiao's eyelashes trembled and she was jolted awake from her dream. She took a deep breath and slowly placed her hand on her forehead. She sat on the bed in a daze for a while.
Ming Siran came in from outside and saw Luo Qiao sitting on the bed in a daze. He closed the door and walked over, " "Why didn't you sleep a little longer?"
Luo Qiao looked down at the watch on her wrist. She had slept for more than an hour, which was not considered long.
However, the sky outside was already bright.
After a few seconds, Luo Qiao raised her head to look at Ming Siran and asked, " "How's Shen shengkong? Did you find her?"
Ming Siran looked at her for a moment, then said, " "Not yet. The tunnel hasn't been dug yet."
After a moment of silence, Luo Qiao stood up and said in a low voice, " "I'll go take a look."
……
The two of them returned to Shen shengkong's Manor. The tunnel was already more than half dug. Luo Zelan was standing outside. When he saw the two of them, he got up and walked over.
"Why are you here?" he looked at Luo Qiao and frowned.
Seeing Luo Qiao's pale face, Luo Zelan knew what she was thinking. He lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice, " "Whether he's Dead or Alive, it has nothing to do with you."
"Brother, I'm Yingying!"
Luo Zelan interrupted her and said in a heavy tone, " "Qiao Qiao, you don't owe anyone." No matter how regretful it was for this to happen.
Luo Qiao fell silent.
Her heart was in a mess, and her emotions seemed to be in the wrong place. She knew what to do rationally, but she couldn't accept it psychologically.
Luo Qiao closed her eyes as she thought of what Shen shengkong had told her before. She thought that she could have done something.
why would he lie to you and put something in the red wine? Qiao Qiao, it was his own choice.
He was deliberately stirring up her emotions to make her escape from him. Even if it wasn't for that glass of red wine, it would be something else.
Luo Qiao stared at the entrance of the darkroom and pursed her lips tightly.
Luo Zelan knew that she had spoken too harshly, so she softened her voice and said, " we haven't found him yet. It's hard to say what the final result will be. Don't think too much.
"Yingluo, yes."
Waiting for the results was the most worrying. The sky was already bright outside.
Ming Siran looked at Luo Qiao for a moment, then whispered something to one of his men beside him. After a while, he saw his man walk in with food.
Ming Siran got up and placed breakfast on the table. "Have something to eat first."
Luo Qiao didn't have much of an appetite, so she didn't move.
Luo Zelan glanced at Ming Siran, but the latter did not say anything. No emotions could be seen on his refined and handsome face.
A few seconds later, he silently pulled out a chair and sat down.
Luo Zelan looked at him for a while, then lowered his voice and turned to Luo Qiao, " Qianqian, when you were taken away by Shen chengkong, he was the most anxious. He didn't even drink a sip of water for the past two days. Qiaoqiao, I know you can't react in time, but you should know what you should do, right? "
Luo Qiao was taken aback. She turned her head and saw Ming Siran eating alone in silence.
The man's eyes were lowered, the side of his face was exquisite, the hand holding the chopsticks was long and thin, and every inch of his body exuded a cold and indifferent aura.
Her heart clenched as she understood what her brother meant. She immediately got up and walked over to sit beside him.
The man heard her voice and turned his head. He had a pair of beautiful eyes, deep and dark, like a quiet pool. When he saw her coming over, there was a ripple in his eyes."Qiao Qiao."
Luo Qiao pursed her lips and found his finger. She held it gently and said in a low voice, " "I'm just a little confused." After all, this had happened too suddenly.
She had no other intentions.
Ming Siran looked at her for a moment, then held her hand and said gently, " "Yes, I know."
He knew what kind of person she was.
Ming Siran looked at Luo Qiao's clear eyes as she looked at him, and suddenly understood Shen shengkong.
How could she bear that the person in those eyes was not her? that feeling was worse than death.
……
The tunnel was slowly dug open. However, the men who went in first did not find Shen shengkong.
"Young master, President Ming," The subordinate strode out from inside and looked at the few of them, saying, " "We didn't find Shen shengkong in there."
Hearing this, the three people's faces changed slightly.
"Qiao Qiao, wait outside." After Luo Zelan said that, she entered the dark room with Ming Siran.
The dark room, which had been blown beyond recognition, was barely able to hold up. The furnishings inside were all in a mess. Luo Zelan looked around the dark room and at first glance, he did not see the man.
However, if Shen shengkong had been at the center of the explosion, the high temperature and the huge impact would have blown him into pieces.
The most important thing was that other than the entrance just now, there was no other way out of this secret room.
"Send a professional technician over." Ming Siran's gaze swept across the corner, and his eyes narrowed slightly. He saw a piece of clothing stained with blood. He walked over and picked it up, his brows furrowed."Let's see what's going on,"
"Yes, President Ming." The subordinate immediately went out.
Ming Siran turned around and his eyes met with Luo Qiao's. She looked at him anxiously and said, " "What's going on? is he alright?"
"I can't be sure yet."
Ming Siran stared at the tiny piece of clothing, his eyes furrowed. He could not be sure whether Shen shengkong was still alive or, like everything else in the dark room, had been blown up beyond recognition.
……
Ming Siran led Luo Qiao out of the secret room. After all, it was a temporary room and was extremely dangerous, with the danger of it collapsing again at any moment.
No one had expected this result, so they could only wait for the professional's news.
The arrangements to return to the country were put on hold for the time being. With such a big commotion, the media still found out no matter how much the news was blocked.
Although Shen shengkong kept a low profile, his status was still there, and there were many people who had their eyes on him.
Especially after the news of his death was widely reported.
In the afternoon, the professionals received accurate results.
"President Ming, the results of the investigation say that a small amount of human tissue was found in that room. Even though the number of deaths is not enough to determine a person's death, considering that there are no other exits in this secret chamber, they are more inclined to believe that Shen shengkong is dead."
