Chapter 3139: So We Have to Cooperate
Qiao Nian’s eyes narrowed. “What did he say?”
“He rejected it.” Lu Zhi looked at her. “Didn’t you already guess it?”
Qiao Nian remained silent.
She had indeed guessed it.
Lu Zhi placed his arms on the back of the chair and leaned back. “To be honest, I don’t understand you Country Z people.
“I clearly gave him better conditions than the Ninth Branch-Ye w.a.n.gchuan couldn’t give him these—but he rejected them without hesitation.
“I’m a businessman. Merchants pay attention to benevolence when business fails.
“Since we didn’t reach an agreement, he left after we were done talking.”
Lu Zhi looked at the girl deeply. “Do you believe me?”
Deep down, he felt that Qiao Nian would not believe him.
Because no matter how one looked at it, he had come to Beijing this time for Master Cheng’s Tsar. For this, he had even bought a mole…
Logically speaking, if he said that he did not force Master Cheng to stay, there was a high chance that no one would believe him.
Even Jian Jin did not stop calling him because she felt that Master Cheng was with him. Since Qiao Nian had come looking for him, there was no reason for her to believe him.
The corners of Lu Zhi’s lips had already curled up. That kind of light mocking and cold arc seemed prepared to withstand other people’s doubts.
He kept his eyes on the girl, wanting to see her surprise, suspicion, and finally anger.
But there wasn’t…
Qiao Nian stared at him for a few seconds. Suddenly, she pinched her eyebrows. Her voice was slightly hoa.r.s.e. “Master Cheng is missing.”
Lu Zhi was still waiting for her to question him. “I knew it since you came to look for me.” Didn’t she just want to ask where he had hidden Master Cheng?
