Chapter 586: Chapter 585: I’ll Wait for You
"Hm, okay, I’ll wait for you, but please hurry," Liu Zheng nodded and said.
With that, Zhou Yalin walked towards the office area.
Meanwhile, Liu Zheng sat on the sofa, playing with the Jade Pendant that Zhou Yalin had given him.
This Jade Pendant was pure white and radiated a faint glow; Liu Zheng could feel that it contained a strong fluctuation of Spiritual Energy.
"What kind of jade is this?" he pondered, frowning slightly.
He had never come into contact with this type of jade before, nor had he seen such a Jade Pendant; it was his first time seeing one.
As this thought emerged, the name of the Jade Pendant appeared in his mind.
The name of the Jade Pendant was ’Ice Crystal Jade Pendant’, an ancient treasure of the Divine Clan.
Legend had it that this Jade Pendant could increase a cultivator’s strength by several or even tens of times.
Although Liu Zheng didn’t know exactly what this Jade Pendant was, he could feel that it must be exceptional; otherwise, Zhou Yalin wouldn’t have given it to him.
Moreover, the value of the Jade Pendant was extraordinary; how could Zhou Yalin not be aware of that?
This further confirmed Liu Zheng’s speculation.
"No wonder she gave me a Jade Pendant, it turns out she has had feelings for me for a long time," Liu Zheng murmured to himself.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong..."
Just then, a knock on the door interrupted Liu Zheng’s thoughts.
"Come in," Liu Zheng said indifferently.
"Brother Liu Zheng..." Following that, a petite and delicate girl appeared at the door.
This young girl looked somewhat similar to Zhou Yalin, possibly her younger sister.
She had two braids and looked very adorable.
"Uh, Yalin, why are you here? I was just about to go look for you," said Liu Zheng with a smile.
"Brother Liu Zheng, do you dislike Yalin?" Zhou Yalin asked with her lips pursed and a somewhat aggrieved expression.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng quickly waved his hands, "No, how could that be?"
Seeing this, Zhou Yalin sighed in relief.
Seeing this, Zhou Yalin continued to speak, "Brother Liu Zheng, Yalin’s parents were both cultivators, and they are no longer in this world. Now, you are Yalin’s only relative left, so, I hope you can take Yalin in, okay?"
After hearing these words, Liu Zheng’s brow furrowed deeply.
Over the years, although Zhou Yalin seemed to be pleasing him on the surface, in her heart she harbored great hatred for him!
Because Liu Zheng’s parents had been killed by Zhou Yalin’s parents!
This was something he had not told Zhou Yalin.
But now, she had brought up the matter herself, which surprised Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng couldn’t help but think back to the time in Qinghai City.
When he first met Zhou Yalin, she had cursed him with venomous words and even cut him with a knife!
At that moment, Liu Zheng had sworn to take revenge one day!
However, over time, Liu Zheng had gradually forgotten about this, after all, there was no relationship between him and Zhou Yalin anymore.
"Yalin, I already know about your situation, so I cannot help you," Liu Zheng shook his head and said.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yalin’s face changed dramatically.
All this time, Liu Zheng had been extremely nice to her, and she thought that he had finally seen his conscience. But who would have thought...
"Hmph, just as I suspected! So, you knew all along!" Zhou Yalin looked coldly at Liu Zheng, her eyes filled with disappointment and anger.
"So what if I did? You killed my parents; don’t I have the right to take revenge?" Liu Zheng retorted.
After hearing his words, Zhou Yalin’s body began to tremble slightly, and her eyes showed intense sorrow.
"I don’t believe it!"
Zhou Yalin suddenly let out a loud shout, her eyes bloodshot, as tears continuously fell from within her sockets.
She couldn’t believe that the man before her actually intended to kill his own kin!
"Don’t believe it?"
Liu Zheng laughed coldly, a cruel glint flashing in his eyes, "Then I’ll let you see for yourself what your biological parents are truly like."
Upon hearing Liu Zheng’s words, Zhou Yalin felt her heart violently pounding, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
Liu Zheng stepped forward, grabbed Zhou Yalin’s shoulders, and flung her harshly onto the floor.
"Ah~!"
Zhou Yalin fell to the ground, her mouth uncontrollably oozing fresh blood, a trace of it lingering on her lips.
Seeing this, Liu Zheng snorted disdainfully. Then, he reached out and tore Zhou Yalin’s clothes to shreds, tossing them aside.
"You... what do you want?!"
Seeing this, Zhou Yalin was filled with terror and hurriedly covered her chest with her hands to prevent Liu Zheng from making even more shameful actions.
However, by this time, Liu Zheng had already lost all reason.
Liu Zheng approached Zhou Yalin step by step, a fierce light twinkling in his eyes.
Zhou Yalin’s heart immediately sank to the bottom.
Seeing this, Liu Zheng kept pressing closer until he pinned Zhou Yalin against the wall, immobilizing her.
Liu Zheng pinched Zhou Yalin’s cheek forcefully, his lips curving with cold cruelty, "Zhou Yalin, I’ve already warned you. If you had been compliant, maybe I would’ve considered letting you go! But you just had to defy me, provoking my anger! If that’s the case, then don’t blame me for being heartless!"
"Liu Zheng, brother... No, please don’t! I beg you, please don’t treat me like this, I... I’m willing to be your slave!"
"Heh!" Hearing Zhou Yalin’s words, Liu Zheng couldn’t help but sneer, "You think I covet you? I don’t just disdain you; I’m even unwilling to toy with you! Zhou Yalin, I’ll ask you one last time, are you willing to go back with me or not?"
"Liu Zheng, brother, no... don’t! Yalin can’t be without a home! I..."
Slap!
A slap landed on Zhou Yalin’s left cheek, and immediately, fresh blood seeped from the corner of her mouth.
Seeing this, Liu Zheng smiled disdainfully, "Good, since you refuse to comply, then don’t blame me for being rude."
"Liu Zheng, brother... No... no ah!"
Slap!
Another slap struck Zhou Yalin’s right cheek, leaving five clear finger marks on her face, as blood incessantly dripped from her mouth.
At this moment, Zhou Yalin finally realized that Liu Zheng was truly determined to deal with her!
"I... I agree..." Zhou Yalin struggled to spit out a few words.
"Hahaha!"
After hearing these words, Liu Zheng laughed uproariously, his eyes brimming with arrogant triumph.
"Zhou Yalin, now, you finally admit you’re mine, right? Hahaha, from now on, I’ll be your boyfriend! Your name shall be Liu Yalin!"
Liu Yalin clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with rage.
She never thought that Liu Zheng would do such a thing, and to make matters worse, he even brought her in front of his parents’ tombstone. This humiliating act was something she couldn’t accept no matter what!
Seeing that Zhou Yalin remained silent, Liu Zheng continued, "Zhou Yalin, let me tell you, from now on, you only listen to me. Otherwise, I’ll sell you to the cheapest brothel and spread your nude photos for the entire nation to admire your body. That way, you’ll become the lowliest woman under everyone’s eyes, and you’ll have no right to any pride!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yalin shuddered, her eyes deep with fear.
"I... I’m willing to follow Liu Zheng’s orders!"
Seeing this, Liu Zheng sneered coldly and reached out to pat Zhou Yalin’s head, "Good, that’s a compliant girl. From now on, you’ll follow me, and I’ll make sure you enjoy all the riches and honors!"
Zhou Yalin’s eyes were filled with resentment, but she was powerless to do anything.
"What are you standing there for? Aren’t you going to come over and help me up?"
After hearing this, Zhou Yalin clenched her teeth and then walked over, extending her hand to help Liu Zheng up.
Liu Zheng wrapped his arm around Zhou Yalin’s waist and headed upstairs.
