Chapter 109: The Impending Finale for Zhang Ziqin
“Do what you want to do. I don’t care about others; I will always support you.” Gazing tenderly at Lu Li, Cao Yingying’s voice was like a spring breeze gliding over a calm lake, stirring gentle ripples.
Lu Li’s heart fluttered. He adored this feeling of being favored, though his gaze still held a hint of suspicion. “When you say ‘others’… are you referring to You ng?” While the sentint was touching, he couldn’t shake off the feeling that there was a catch.
“Um…” Knowing was one thing, but voicing it out loud?
Cao Yingying was uniformly kind to everyone, but she harbored significant hostility toward You ng, the little maid who alternated between black and white stockings. She couldn’t stand such shalessness and even suspected the woman would gladly clean without wearing anything at all. Too risky!
“Ha-ha-ha, no need to worry. You ng is my top general. Right now, she’s in charge of capturing Zhang Ziqin!” Lu Li laughed heartily.
The sight of Cao Yingying, a woman as pristine as a high-mountaintop snow lotus, showing such jealousy was truly… blissful! A full sense of male achievent.
Cao Yingying sighed helplessly: “You really are… making full use of everything, aren’t you?”
“Don’t accuse . It was You ng’s own wish, and I’ve rewarded her for it,” Lu Li waved his hands in defense.
Cao Yingying said no more, her gaze remaining tenderly on the man before her, her man, who was indeed gentle. His treatnt of Zhang Ziqin showed imnse malice in this life, but wasn’t that also a form of tenderness for her?
If Lu Li did nothing, Zhang Ziqin, now without any support, faced a bleak future, Cao Yingying knew well. The nurous enemies Zhang Ziqin had made over the years would seek vengeance, perhaps more fiercely than one could imagine…
Even if she despised Zhang Ziqin, as a woman, she couldn’t help but feel so empathy!
The ringing of a phone interrupted their mont. Lu Li answered and, with a smirk curling at his lips, stood up: “Alright, once we’ve dealt with this trouble, we’ll head to the Magic City to et that nephew abandoned by his aunt, Ye Chen!”
“Uh-huh!” Cao Yingying watched Lu Li leave tenderly. She appreciated the changes in him. Although he seed more ruthless than in his previous life, he remained the gentle man she loved.
She was sure he was her Lu Li, not soone possessed as in so novels.
As for dealing with Zhang Ziqin, Cao Yingying had no objections. She harbored her own desires to kill Zhang Ziqin, so Lu Li taking action personally was perfect, severing the karmic ties from their past.
It was also a way for the Lu Li of her previous life to vindicate himself!
With Cao Yingying’s support, Lu Li’s smile was unguarded. What others said didn’t matter; having the understanding of the person he liked was enough.
Chen Xiaoyi, Cao Yingying, and his first mate and maid, You ng, were his realm!
Truthfully, Lu Li felt conflicted. If he really wanted Zhang Ziqin to understand true fear, the best way would be to do nothing. Many despised and coveted Zhang Ziqin; coupled with her nurous enemies, the outco was predictable.
Sotis people are complex. Even though he wished for all sorts of tragedies to befall Zhang Ziqin, he couldn’t bear the thought of anyone other than himself being the cause.
It sounds odd, right? Just like Lu Li’s current situation. But one thing was clear: he would never engage in so lodramatic plot with Zhang Ziqin. His goals were always clear, unaffected by any pitiful display from her.
He was not the kind of man who lost dignity over a woman’s slight affection. His heart was colder than what he could feel.
Had Su Bingqing wasted any more ti, she might have been on the brink of death.
Should You ng or Su Bingqing do anything to displease him in the future, the outco would be ‘death’ without hesitation from Lu Li.
Driving to a secluded cottage in the outskirts, You ng had been waiting for a while.
Seeing Lu Li arrive, her eyes brightened: “Master, everything is ready.”
Dressed in black, her hair tied in a ponytail, the usually ek maid now exuded a sharp aura, quite different from her usual deanor.
“Well done!” Lu Li praised, rubbing You ng’s head. As the mont approached, Lu Li beca calr.
Lu Ya was gone, having t a miserable end. There was no reason Zhang Ziqin shouldn’t receive the sa treatnt. Rather than leaving it to chance, Lu Li preferred to have Zhang Ziqin die by his hand, ensuring peace of mind.
You ng bead, trying to get closer to Lu Li’s hand but, unfortunately, it was a fleeting touch.
“Stand guard at the door. This will be over soon,” Lu Li said, his expression chilling as he entered the dilapidated house.
Today, he would mark the end of one-third of the past’s grievances and pain.
“Okay!” You ng nodded firmly, filled with a sense of duty.

Where am I?
Struggling to move, Zhang Ziqin found herself bound tightly, unable to escape.
Darkness enveloped her, obscuring her vision.
Kidnapped!
Realization struck her, accompanied by a surge of fear. Unlike the sheltered ladies of high society, Zhang Ziqin, having taken control of Zhang Corporation early, was forced to mature quickly.
Aware of the ugliness in the world, she still couldn’t suppress her trembling when faced with such a predicant.
She couldn’t accept it, considering it a betrayal of Lu Li, even if forced. Regardless of Lu Li’s indifference, she was determined to remain chaste for him.
Her body, her soul, everything she had belonged to Lu Li, and she wouldn’t allow anyone else to lay a finger on her.
Struggling against her restraints, she knew her captor’s intentions were vile, but she was prepared to die rather than let them succeed.
Would Lu Li shed a tear for her after her death?
Maybe so…
