"Daddy only contacted you before he died." Ji Sixi raised the strongest question.
Chi Zhichen's bloodless face revealed a trace of sorrow. What ability do I have... "Can you arrange all of this?"
Did Zhi Chen not know the relationship between his uncle and "Satan"?
Ji Sixi secretly cursed in her heart.
Chi Zhichen weakly closed his eyes and continued, "I have never lied to you before, Sixi ?? If you feel that everything that has happened has been arranged and pla
ed by me, I have nothing to say. "
Ji Sixi looked at Chi Zhichen's painful face and his heart tightened.
Should she really suspect Zhichen?
He had been doing his best to help her. Was he really the murderer who had killed her father?
Her intuition told her that Zhi Chen was definitely not that hidden boss behind the scenes ??
But, all the evidence that Lu Jingzhi had investigated pointed towards Zhi Chen, was this really a coincidence?
Coming out from the sickroom, Ji Sixi discovered that Lu Jingzhi's face was extremely ugly. She knew that he was unhappy about her concern for Chi Zhichen, but in reality, she had only regarded him as a friend from the start.
"I've already asked Zhi Chen. He denies that he was always behind you, and I don't see any traces of a lie in his eyes." Ji Sixi said calmly.
Lu Jingzhi's gaze was indifferent, and he said coldly, "The person he is trying to deceive is you, do you think he will let you see traces of a lie?"
Ji Sixi was speechless.
Lu Jingzhi looked at Chi Zhichen who was resting with his eyes closed due to the weakness of the glass curtain and said: "You should believe in me more than him."
It wasn't that she didn't believe in Chi Zhichen, but that she truly believed that Chi Zhichen wasn't the killer ??
But how could she explain to Lu Jingzhi her trust in him?
"Do you really want to involve Dark Angel?" she asked worriedly.
Lu Jingzhi replied indifferently, "This is the best way to avoid future troubles."
"Could it be that I can't let Zhi Chen go just because of me? Should I spend more time to investigate?" Ji Sixi looked at Lu Jingzhi and asked sadly.
"I've already said it before, if we let Chi Zhichen go this time, it would be tantamount to releasing a tiger back into the mountains." There was no room for discussion in Lu Jingzhi's words.
Ji Sixi's gaze froze for a moment, remembering the disappointment in Chi Zhichen's eyes. She took a deep breath, and then said calmly, "I've said it before, if you insist on doing something that would harm Zhi Chen, then step over my dead body."
Lu Jingzhi did not dare believe it, and his long and narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. In order to protect Chi Zhichen, you're even willing to sacrifice your life? "
"That's because I believe in Zhichen." Ji Sixi gave her answer.
Lu Jingzhi was no longer as patient as before, he asked with a cold expression, "Are you sure you want to protect Chi Zhichen?"
"I'm sure." She believed that Lu Jingzhi would investigate the real mastermind later.
"Then give me a reason for you to protect him like this." Lu Jingzhi's eyes were no longer gentle, they were sinister to the point that it shocked others.
Ji Sixi was stu
ed for a second.
If Dark Angel were to intervene, they would definitely not leave Zhi Chen alive. However, if she only gave Lu Jingzhi a reason that she trusted Zhi Chen, then she would definitely not be able to convince Lu Jingzhi.
However, she couldn't let anything happen to Zhi Chen ??
Even though all the evidence pointed towards Zhi Chen as the hidden boss who was scheming against Lu Jingzhi behind the scenes, she still believed that it was not the truth ??
Although she considered Zhi Chen to be her friend, her trust in him was the same as her trust towards Lu Jingzhi. No one could affect her judgement.
Thinking about it, Ji Sixi bit her lips, and said seriously, "Because I care about him."
"You care?"
Lu Jingzhi frowned deeply, as if he was dissatisfied with what Ji Sixi had just said.
At this moment, Ji Sixi was glad she did not reveal the truth to Lu Jingzhi, because she was able to lie to him.
Although this would be very harmful to him, she could only do this in the face of a human life.
When everyone was careless, he was no exception.
Last time, he was not able to protect his father due to carelessness. This time, it was possible that it was carelessness that prevented him from finding out that Zhi Chen was not the hidden boss behind the scenes ??
Therefore, she couldn't let Lu Jingzhi destroy her dreams just like that.
She had always believed that the hidden boss behind the scenes was definitely not him.
Lu Jingzhi's rising tone revealed his pain. Ji Sixi felt very uncomfortable, but she steeled her heart and said, "These few days, you should also know that I am no longer purely friends with Zhi Chen."
"Lu Jingzhi's handsome face instantly turned as cold as ice. Is that true? "
Lu Jingzhi could not help but notice the clues, he lowered his head and said: "The reason why I proposed to divorce you before, was also for Zhichen."
Lu Jingzhi did not speak anymore, but even though they were separated by fifty centimeters, Ji Sixi could feel a cold aura radiating from his entire body.
She rarely saw Lu Jingzhi like this, even when they had just met. Lu Jingzhi had never seen her like this, she knew that he was very angry at this moment.
However, for someone like him, even if he was angry, it was impossible for others to see his furious expression. However, this silence made people even more terrified.
However, she had no choice but to continue maintaining this lie. She had to protect Chi Zhichen and couldn't let the truth be covered up ??
"Very good, Ji Sixi ?? "You're very good!" In the end, Lu Jingzhi only highlighted these few words, which, of course, came from the gaps between his teeth.
Ji Sixi felt a heartache, but she could only hope that in the future, Lu Jingzhi would forgive her actions.
He had not expected that he would be able to protect him by lying to him instead of being a burden.
Sigh ??
She had let down Lu Jingzhi, but she would definitely prove it in the future. She was not wrong;
"For my sake, I beg you, don't let Dark Angel interfere ?? If something were to happen to Zhi Chen, I would definitely not live by myself. " Only the heavens knew how unbearable she was feeling right now. She knew how much damage these words had done to Lu Jingzhi.
"You clearly know that I let him go, and the one who died in the end was probably me, yet you still begged me to let him go?" Lu Jingzhi's voice trembled slightly as his deep black eyes struggled in pain and anger.
"In the end it will prove that Zhichen is i
ocent... I just want you to find out. " Ji Sixi was afraid that she did not have the courage to say it, so she pinched her thigh and forced herself to exhale.
Lu Jingzhi suddenly clenched his fists.
Ji Sixi was shocked, and her body trembled slightly.
She had never seen Lu Jingzhi this angry before, she was really frightened ??
Unexpectedly, this fist was not as Ji Sixi had expected it to be. Instead, it was on her body, because in the end, he had heavily punched the cold white wall beside him.
'Bang! 'a deafening sound was heard.
Ji Sixi stood blankly in place for a good while, and by the time she had reacted to the situation, Lu Jingzhi was already staring at her with his cold eyes. Ji Sixi, you have truly shown me what love is. "
