After pulling some strings to enter the detention center, Gu Mingzhe arrived to see a tear-streaked Zhong Qianqian.
Gu Mingzhe waited for her to finish crying but did not comfort her. After all, she was a woman who took advantage of others. The more you comforted her, the more unreasonable she became.
Therefore, when her wails were reciprocated with Gu Mingzhe’s cold attitude, Zhong Qianqian soon stopped crying and asked with some resentment, “Brother Mingzhe, why… why are you ignoring me? Aren’t you going to rescue me?”
Gu Mingzhe smiled gently. “Of course not.”
Then, he placed a contract in front of Zhong Qianqian. “After you sign this contract, I’ll find someone to get you out immediately.”
When she heard the word ‘contract’, Zhong Qianqian felt a tingling sensation crawl up her spine.
When she flipped through the contract, she read that she was to admit that she murdered Zhou Jinhui and attempted to murder Zhong Nuannuan. That was why she informed Gu Mingzhe that she was a member of the Nangong family. As long as Gu Mingzhe could get her out, she would stay together with Gu Mingzhe forever. If they divorced, she would give Gu Mingzhe 200 billion as compensation. Otherwise, Gu Mingzhe would have the right to expose the video and this contract to the public.
Zhong Qianqian was puzzled. “Isn’t this the same as the contract that you’ve asked me to sign before this? The compensation amount is the same, too. Is there a need for me to sign another contract?”
Gu Mingzhe smiled. “Of course it’s necessary. The previous contract seemed a bit far-fetched no matter how you look at it. This one is much more pleasing to the eye. Just sign it. It’s no different from the previous one anyway. The contract you signed previously will automatically be invalid. After signing you, you just need to wait patiently.”
Zhong Qianqian signed the contract without hesitation.
“Come, let’s record this.”
Zhong Qianqian was puzzled. “What for?”
“If you betray me in the future, who am I going to reason with? This is the detention center. Since it’s a deal, of course, that means both parties consented to this contract, right?”
After saying that, he gave Zhong Qianqian a piece of paper and told her to read it carefully to know what she should say before starting the recording.
Zhong Qianqian could not shake off the dismay in her heart. However, the thought of being able to leave and become the precious young miss of the Nangong family made her endure this.
After reading the paper, Zhong Qianqian quickly recorded a video. The general content was that she killed someone and could not find a way out, so she told Gu Mingzhe the secret behind her identity. She asked Gu Mingzhe to find her family to help her. To thank Gu Mingzhe, she promised to never divorce him. If the marriage reached the end of her tolerance and she wanted to divorce him, she promised to compensate Gu Mingzhe 200 billion in the name of the little young miss in the Nangong family. If she went back on her word, Gu Mingzhe could hand over all the evidence he had.
With all these in his possession, Gu Mingzhe did not delay any longer. He told her to be a good girl and stay inside, waiting for the moment she returned home as the young miss of the Nangong family.
Once she regained her freedom, she would no longer be her pathetically broke self, but the young miss of the Nangong family. Thinking about that, Zhong Qianqian’s mood instantly soared from rock bottom to the clouds. She would become someone that not even Gu Mingzhe deserved to look up to!
So what if she killed someone?
As far as she was concerned, she could kill anyone she wanted once she became the precious young miss of the Nangong family!
However, what Zhong Qianqian did not know was that after the reporters who participated in the auction were successfully rescued, they were extremely grateful. From that day onward, pieces after pieces of elaborate news took Jiang and H District by storm. Due to Duke Eton’s appearance, even the newspapers and electronic news in Emperor District screamed the same things.
‘A country bumpkin transformed into an international socialite. Miss Sunny graced Jiang District auction with her presence!’
‘Miss Royalty in love with Jiang District officer. Duke Eton descended at the auction venue!’
