A year older, the third master of Beijing circle kissed her to tears

Chapter 1040 What kind of rhetoric



Chapter 1040 What kind of rhetoric

Zhuang Zhoucheng held Huo Yan in his arms, coaxing her in a low voice, waiting for her to calm down.

Huo Yan was tired of crying, and only soft sobs remained. Zhuang Zhoucheng then began to apologize:

"It's not that I don't admit my mistakes. I just found out today that he did a lot of good things. We will continue to provide financial support to the children on the island. I will send people to the island as soon as possible to comfort the children. Don't worry, I will arrange everything. As for this case..."

Zhuang Zhoucheng was silent for a moment, then lowered his eyes to look at the woman sobbing softly in his arms. He gently wiped away the tears on her face with his fingertips and scratched Huo Yan's little nose.

"You still need to go to the police station to record your statement. You just need to tell the truth. When the case is filed, it is you who was abducted by terrorists. You can tell me the process or not. I will greet the police and will not force you."

Zhuang Zhoucheng spoke in a low voice. After all, someone had died. Even if the criminal resisted arrest and was shot dead by the police, the hostage's confession was still needed.

But looking at Huo Yan's current condition, she was afraid that she would not cooperate with him and say what he said.

Huo Yan didn't say anything. Zhuang Zhoucheng was silent for a moment before he said:

"I promise this won't get out, at least not in the capital. However, if the people in Kyoto insist on pestering me and refuse to give up, the news of your abduction might..."

Zhuang Zhoucheng was at a loss. She was still immersed in the pain of Qian Ziang's death in front of her. Had she ever thought about herself?

Huo Yan raised his eyes and looked at him. "What's the matter?"

Zhuang Zhoucheng grabbed Huo Yan's hand and kissed her fingers:

"Silly boy, you were kidnapped the day after our wedding. Even though you were rescued the next day, it's just...public opinion. I'll find a way to dispel it. I'm just worried that it might bother you. Do you understand?"

"Will newspapers write nonsense?" Huo Yan asked Zhuang Zhoucheng.

Zhuang Zhou remained silent, his brows furrowed.

"I hope not. If anything happens to you, I've blocked the news. No one knows except my eldest brother."

"Does my father-in-law know about this?" Huo Yan asked Zhuang Zhoucheng.

Zhuang Zhoucheng hesitated and shook his head. "Grandpa only suspected that something had happened to us, but he wasn't sure. I didn't plan to tell him. Don't worry, Big Brother won't tell anyone either. He's busy enough with his army and doesn't have time to pay attention to us."

Huo Yan pressed his face against Zhuang Zhoucheng's chest. "Whatever, they can write whatever they want. I won't read it."

"Well, we won't bother with them." Zhuang Zhoucheng responded while hugging Huo Yan tightly.

"You'll be recording your statement tomorrow. If you don't want to say anything more, just say this."

Zhuang Zhoucheng couldn't help but speak out, fearing that she would say something she shouldn't:

"The day you were kidnapped, you lost consciousness before you could even see the person's face. When you woke up, you found yourself on an isolated island. You held out until we rescued you. Then they tried to take you hostage and prevent you from leaving. You don't have to say anything else. Do you understand?"

Huo Yan looked at Tan Jin and said seriously:

"He didn't stop me from leaving. Half an hour after you arrived, Qian Ziang's plane came to the island to pick us up..."

"Stop, you don't have to say this, okay?"

Zhuang Zhoucheng immediately interrupted her and said, "This silly girl is trying to harm him, right?"

Huo Yan looked at Zhuang Zhoucheng, her long eyelashes drooping, hiding the expression in her eyes.

"I won't bear false witness, and I won't give a false confession." She finally said.

She had already let Qian Ziang down and didn't want to add to her guilt.

"I didn't ask you to give false testimony, nor did I ask you to tell lies." Zhuang Zhoucheng said helplessly.

After a pause, he said:

"Well, Yan'er, you have to make sure of two things. First, you haven't been violated by anyone, and everything you say can't arouse other people's imaginations. Second, you didn't go with anyone voluntarily, you were abducted. OK?"

Huo Yan suddenly became angry, "I wasn't violated in the first place, and I didn't go with anyone voluntarily!"

Zhuang Zhoucheng immediately patted her back, gently patting it to soothe her emotions, and his voice was slowed down, coaxing her gently.

"I know, I know everything. You're willing to wear a wedding dress and run on the beach. You must have been deceived by that man's sweet words and treacherous heart. But honey, I know you can't. You have to tell the police, understand?"

"……Um."

Huo Yan finally nodded.

In fact, it was not much different from what Zhuang Zhoucheng said. She just took a nap and woke up to find herself somewhere else. She was still wondering about it.

Will others believe this?

If she were not Zhuang Zhoucheng's wife, who would care who abducted her and whether she was violated?

She knew that Zhuang Zhoucheng was doing this for her own good. This was just in case it was reported in the newspapers, and the police could provide strong evidence to defend her innocence with facts.

"Shall we go back to our room and sleep?" Zhuang Zhoucheng asked her in a low voice.

Huo Yan didn't say anything. Zhuang Zhoucheng kissed her on the cheek, carried her out of the guest room and walked towards their room.

Zhuang Zhoucheng lay on his side beside Huo Yan, staring at her face, his voice mellow and pleasant:

"I scared you yesterday, didn't I? Don't be afraid, it will pass."

Huo Yan slept on her side with her back to Zhuang Zhoucheng. Zhuang Zhoucheng pulled her back, gently stroked her face, kissed her on the cheek, and hugged her and said:

"Go to sleep and don't think too much."

*

The incident was reported in the newspapers. The Kyoto side refused to give up, and the two sides became hostile once again.

Among Qian Ziang's brothers, Wang Bo is a lawyer. He was dissatisfied with the statement released by the Beijing police and took the children back from the island in an attempt to overturn the case.

Both sides insisted on their own opinions, and two months passed with still no progress.

The old man of the Qian family did not have much energy to fight the lawsuit for his son, so he advised the younger generation to let go of the grudge and stop being obsessed with it.

Qian Ziang's funeral was held after the lawsuit was completely over. This man, whose life was like a floating duckweed, finally passed away under the escort of his relatives and friends.

Qian Ziang's father transferred all of his property during his lifetime, including Chen Palace, Binhai Entertainment City and secret businesses, and donated all the money he obtained to charity in the name of his son.

On the day of Qian Ziang's funeral, just like Lu Zeng's funeral, Huo Yan went there, but did not dare to show up for fear of being sought for revenge.

After the empty box was buried, everyone left, and Huo Yan then approached the tombstone.

This is Qian Ziang’s tombstone from several years ago. I wonder if he can escape from the dormitory again this time.

"Sorry……"

Huo Yan knelt in front of the tombstone.

She didn't feel that Qian Ziang liked her that much, but he died because of her. How could she feel good about it?

In the end, he still sided with Zhuang Zhoucheng, and Huo Yan was left with only guilt towards Qian Ziang.

"Sorry……"

Huo Yan lowered her voice and cried, what was the point of saying "I'm sorry" more times?

The enchantress whose smile was so charming is no longer here, no longer in sight, and can no longer be heard.

"Actually, I haven't forgotten you, the you of your childhood."

Huo Yan choked with sobs, took a deep breath, and exhaled deeply.
