Chapter 6 - The Flustered Heroine
Chapter 6: The Flustered Heroine
Even the chance to make amends was gone.
She could make the right choice now, but there was no opportunity anymore.
She wanted revenge!
Zhang Ziqin kept investigating, only to find out that the murderer was her own business partner, Ye Chen.
It was Ye Chen who killed the man she loved the most, Zhang Ziqin couldn’t believe her own eyes.
It was her fault, she let the wolf into the house.
It was she who killed the man she loved the most.
She attacked Ye Chen with all she had, revenge was successful, but what of it? Could it correct her mistake, could it bring back her lover?
Really, everything was gone. In those last few years, Zhang Ziqin was like a walking corpse, suffering from everything she had done to Lu Li at the Zhang family estate, suffering from seeing
Lu Li’s shocked and grim expression.
Every moment of every day was filled with constant torment, constant pain.
In the end, she was completely exhausted.
Clutching her fists tightly, Zhang Ziqin looked back at the estate.
Even now, recalling those initial moments, the cup of red wine splashed on Lu Li’s face.
Lu Li’s shocked and incredulous expression.
Still so painfully heartfelt…
In the last moments of her previous life, she kept wondering why things turned out the way they did, why Lu Li gave up on himself.
Later, she understood, the biggest perpetrator who hurt Lu Li was herself!
It was she who gradually eroded away Lu Li’s love for her, unreciprocated love, like a movie with no end in sight. It was her presumption that drove Lu Li to complete despair.
In his eyes, could she and Ye Chen really be so innocent?
No!
Fortunately, everything hasn’t happened yet, she’s been reborn, everything can start over. This time, she won’t disappoint Lu Li again, she will become the best wife.
“Miss, it’s time, the banquet is about to start,” reminded the assistant by her side.
Today’s miss is a bit strange, wondering why she ran to the door to welcome guests. Is there some particularly important guest?
The old master and madam passed away early, it’s really not easy for the miss to achieve what others can’t at such a young age.
Compared to the old master and madam, they would be quite comforted!
“Are all the guests here?” Zhang Ziqin asked with some concern, holding her hands.
“….The four from the Lu family have not arrived yet,” the assistant diligently looked at Zhang Ziqin.
The miss is beautiful and capable, a perfect girl indeed, but that Mr. Lu Li from the Lu family, aside from his appearance, has nothing else, she feels he’s not worthy of her miss.
“How come?” Zhang Ziqin looked around anxiously, how could Lu Li not come, today she wanted to express her feelings in front of everyone, especially in front of Lu Li, and her
determination to fight Ye Chen to the death!
In the previous life, Lu Li arrived early!
Has something happened?
Her heart suddenly tightened.
The assistant looked at Zhang Ziqin with some confusion, “Miss, are you waiting for…Mr. Lu Li? Did miss fall for Mr. Lu Li?”
“Yes!” Zhang Ziqin didn’t hesitate at all, having experienced the previous life, she clearly knew what she wanted now, this time she would not hesitate.
The assistant paused for a moment, not expecting Zhang Ziqin to actually answer, her gaze becoming somewhat complex.
Has that Mr. Lu Li from the Lu family finally succeeded?
“Then you don’t need to wait like this. Today is Zhang family’s banquet, yet Mr. Lu Li has yet to arrive, this is too disrespectful to you,” the assistant said tactfully.
She actually meant that by doing this, it would make Lu Li climb over Zhang Ziqin’s head.
Even if the two really got together, it should still be miss who calls the shots.
“Slap!”
Zhang Ziqin suddenly slapped the assistant across the face, the assistant was stunned, covering her face, looking at her miss in confusion.
“When did my affair with Lu Li become your business?” Zhang Ziqin’s face was icy cold, staring coldly at the assistant in front of her.
“I’m sorry, miss,” the assistant quickly apologized.
“Watch your mouth, if there’s a next time, you know the consequences,” Zhang Ziqin’s tone was stern, she wouldn’t allow anyone to insult Lu Li.
“Yes!”
The assistant bowed her head, answering in a fluster.
She was almost scared to death, does Lu Li hold such a high position in Zhang Ziqin’s heart?
Then why was Zhang Ziqin so…harsh to Lu Li before?
Zhang Ziqin didn’t speak anymore, she quietly waited, five minutes, ten minutes, fifteen minutes, half an hour passed, and Lu Li still didn’t come.
Not just her, all four invited from the Lu family didn’t come.
Has something really happened?
Her heart tightened, having experienced Lu Li’s death, she was now sensitive to everything.
Although Ye Chen, that maggot, hasn’t met Lu Li yet, but what if, what if other situations occurred, and also that Lu Ya, she also joined forces with her to humiliate Lu Li at the banquet.
Could it be something happened?
Lu Ya, even though we fought Ye Chen together in the previous life, if you dare to hurt Lu Li, I won’t let you off.
“Bring me my phone.” She was wearing a dress because she wanted to see Lu Li early, Zhang Ziqin didn’t bring her phone.
When the assistant brought the phone, Zhang Ziqin immediately dialed Lu Li’s mobile number, but it wasn’t answered, and after several attempts, it became ‘busy.’
What’s happening, has something happened to Lu Li?
She immediately dialed Lu Ya’s phone, unexpectedly no one answered either.
Unable to connect to both phones, Zhang Ziqin suddenly had a bad feeling.
