Chapter 405
"I'm sorry to meet you like this, Madam, but I have no other choice."
"Don't worry, your men are all fine. They just need to sleep for a while. Do you want to say this or put on your clothes and tell them?" Guan Ning was calm, without a trace of ferocity.
Roland gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Did you do that on purpose just now? Just to get closer to me, Madam?"
Guan Ning nodded: "You guessed right."
Roland felt a chill in her heart. After all these years of being high and mighty, she had never been so panicked. She was about to shout.
But Guan Ning seemed to see through her inner thoughts and spoke first: "If you want to die, just scream, the louder the better, I don't care anyway."
Roland's open red lips froze instantly, and his whole body felt like he was falling into an icy cave.
Fear and anger intertwined, making the high-ranking lady almost tremble: "You dare to kill me?"
"I won't kill you. I rarely kill women."
This one sentence made Roland even more wary. He rarely killed women, but that meant he killed people often?
"But you call people here. If I get caught, I will definitely tell you all those secrets of your madam. Once those things are exposed, your life will be in danger." Guan Ning smiled.
"What do you mean?"
"What secret?"
"Stop slandering me!" Roland scolded, his expression changing noticeably, and he felt guilty.
Seeing her reaction, Guan Ning raised the corner of his mouth: "Now, Madam, are you going to wear clothes or not?"
"If you say that, Madam, you are being too kind to me."
As he spoke, he glanced at it deliberately.
It’s indeed white!
"How dare you!" Roland was so angry and ashamed that he covered his hands tighter, causing a splash of water.
"Put it on. I'll wait for you outside."
Guan Ning threw down his clothes and turned around to leave. He looked so confident that he was not afraid of her calling for help. This made Roland even more uneasy. His eyes flickered and he didn't know what he was thinking.
She could have called for help, but no sound came out. After hesitating for a long time, she reached out and grabbed the clothes on the ground.
Wow!
Then she quickly walked out of the bathtub and hid behind the screen, and the sound of her dressing could be heard.
It was obvious that she dressed in a hurry and was done quickly. When she came out, her hair was still wet. The peach-pink palace dress outlined her plump figure, which even trembled when she walked.
Young girls are good, but young women are not bad either. They are two different styles.
"What on earth were you talking about?" she asked coldly, regaining some composure.
Guan Ning put down his teacup, raised an eyebrow and said, "Sit down and talk?"
"Humph, who do you think you are? Are you worthy enough to sit with this lady?"
"If you don't explain clearly today, I promise to make you live a life worse than death!" She snorted coldly and looked at him sternly, trying to force Guan Ning to submit to a certain extent.
Guan Ning was not angry, and smiled faintly: "Really?"
"Then ma'am, please take a look at this first."
As he spoke, he took out the embroidered shoe he had picked up in the Longevity Tower last night. It was almost embroidered and extremely expensive.
When the embroidered shoe came out, Roland's eyes changed from surprise to shock and finally to fear.
"Where are you from?!" She raised her voice, with a strong sense of uneasiness flashing in her eyes.
Guan Ning said calmly: "Now, can we sit down and talk?"
"you!!"
Roland was furious, but she had to sit down. She was a little uneasy because she lost her shoe last night. She looked for it several times but couldn't find it.
But now that it suddenly appeared in Guan Ning's hands, wouldn't that mean something about him and Zheng Laosan...
"What did you see?" She sat down, staring at Guan Ning intently, and even had the urge to silence him.
"What did I see? Do you mean what happened just now?" Guan Ning smiled slyly, deliberately keeping the suspense.
"Stop playing dumb with me!"
boom!
Roland slammed the table, but had to lower her voice, as she ended up attracting people over.
"Oh, madam, you are talking about last night. I went to the Tower of Longevity and saw everything I should see. Hehe, madam, you are so fair." Guan Ning smiled harmlessly.
Roland Fengyun's face turned red instantly, and he grabbed Guan Ning's collar in anger.
"You little bastard, how dare you break into the Tower of Immortality at night?"
"If Madam dares to go anywhere shamefully, why shouldn't I dare?" Guan Ning spread his hands.
Roland gritted his teeth. He never dreamed that there was someone there last night!
The shame of being witnessed throughout the whole process was nothing. What she feared more at the moment was that the matter would be exposed. Although the Zheng family was united, this huge and wealthy family with a century of history would not allow such a scandal to happen. Once it was exposed, she would be the first to disappear mysteriously!
But she didn't want to be led by the nose, so she said stubbornly, "So what if you saw it?"
"Do you think anyone will believe what you say?"
Guan Ning raised his eyebrows: "Then let's give it a try?"
Roland was instantly speechless.
"What exactly do you want?" She spoke after a long time.
Guan Ning knocked on the table.
Roland, such a noble lady, had to let go of the boy whom she once regarded as an ant and sit back down obediently.
But deep in her eyes, there was murderous intent.
Guan Ning didn't care.
"Help me save someone, and I'll keep this secret to myself." Guan Ning went straight to the point.
"Who to save?" Roland's eyes flickered.
"Song Yu was detained by the Zheng family deep in the compound." Guan Ning said.
Song Yu?
Roland was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered something: "Are you talking about the wife of the master's retainer?"
"Yes, it's her." Guan Ning said.
"Who are you and why did you save her?"
"Did that retainer send you here?" Roland asked cautiously.
