Chapter 89 Own People
"I used to be the eldest young master's personal assistant." Uncle Xu has begun to introduce himself.
Uncle Xu said that he was young and ignorant. When he was young, he thought he had encountered an opportunity, so he sneaked into the sea to go abroad to make money.
When he got ashore, what greeted him was not a new life, but a big iron cage. In the iron cage, there were many people who wanted to go abroad to make money like him.
They were sold to Country M like commodities. In the end, they became illegal immigrants, not only doing hard labor day and night, but also being closely guarded, unable to even run away for help.
Uncle Xu said that he had escaped many times, but was eventually caught and brought back. After being caught, he was inevitably beaten up.
Beating people here is very particular, never breaking bones. Pressing the red-hot iron against the skin would cause excruciating pain.
At this point, Uncle Xu rolled up his long-sleeved shirt.
The skin under the shirt was uneven, and the old burns were shocking, which made me breathe a sigh of relief.
Even before their injuries have fully healed, they will be forced to work.
"But fortunately, I never gave up the idea of escaping. The last time I escaped, I met a young master who was studying abroad at the time. He helped me hide from the people who were chasing me, brought me back to China and gave me a job."
Uncle Xu stayed with Young Master Chu for 10 years.
Until half a year ago, I had a car accident and was seriously injured and fell into a coma for a while.
It turns out that the secretary replaced by Zhuang Ziyi was Uncle Xu.
"I finally recovered after a few months of recuperation, but now there is a woman with ulterior motives by the young master's side."
"Zhuang Ziyi...?"
I couldn't help but say it out loud.
Chu Yucheng: "Do you know my sister-in-law?"
Before I could answer, Uncle Xu, who was sitting in the front row, snorted heavily: "Young Master, a woman like this is not worthy of being called your sister-in-law! She was the one who killed the eldest master!"
Chu Yucheng spread his hands helplessly: "Uncle Xu, my brother was killed by the evil ghost raised by Yin Zongyang."
Uncle Xu was excited: "That woman and Yin Zongyang are clearly in the same group!"
Chu Yucheng sighed: "My brother said that Sister Zhuang was indeed an undercover agent sent by Yin Zongyang, but later she turned from the dark to the light, and also eliminated many of Yin Zongyang's spies in the Chu Group. My brother loves her very much."
"Who knows if it was a self-torture trick!" Uncle Xu's face flushed with excitement: "The eldest young master is good in everything except that he has had too few relationships. That's why he fell into the honey trap and was deceived and lost his life in the end! That woman, on the other hand, retired after achieving her goal. She appeared to be dead, but maybe she faked her death and is still living happily somewhere!"
Seeing that he couldn't persuade Uncle Xu, Chu Yucheng didn't argue anymore. Instead, he changed the subject and continued to ask me the question I had just asked: "So how did you get to know my sister-in-law... Sister Zhuang?"
I opened my mouth and said, “To be precise, I only met her after she died.”
The car was silent for a few seconds.
Uncle Xu, whose face was already red, suddenly calmed down after hearing what I said. He then asked me in an uncertain tone, his voice much lower: "Is she...really dead?"
I thought of the water torture that almost tortured me to collapse during the empathy period. I thought of the blood flowing down my wrist, drop by drop, dripping into the purple-red copper basin. I thought of the feeling of my body temperature getting colder as the blood flowed out.
I closed my eyes, not wanting to recall the past: "He died, and Yin Zongyang drained his blood and made him into a witch, and his soul was used to breed evil spirits."
Uncle Xu's face became particularly solemn. After thinking for a while, he continued to ask me for confirmation: "Then how did Miss Su know her?"
"She was lucky and managed to escape from the evil spirit. When I met her, her soul was already broken and her body was infected by evil spirits. She was unconscious."
This time the silence was longer.
"Since she is unconscious, how do you know her identity and what she has been through, Miss Su?"
"I'm a Feng Shui master."
I have no way of expressing what I can relate to. After all, my physique makes me a good material for possessing another's body. The fewer people who know about it, the better, as my senior brother has advised me.
"Zhuang Ziyi lingered in the human world and refused to enter the gates of hell because she knew that Yin Zongyang had used her blood as bait and the necklace as a base to make a witchcraft to harm Chu Bin."
Uncle Xu got excited again: "Since you knew about this, why didn't you tell the young master to pay attention to this matter earlier!" I lowered my eyes: "I reminded him, and I asked an elder I knew to tell him, but unfortunately he didn't believe it. I have always regretted this matter. He didn't believe it after I told him once or twice. If I told him ten or a hundred times, would he believe it?"
……
Chu Bin reached out and patted Uncle Xu on the shoulder: "Uncle Xu, my brother is destined to suffer this disaster."
Then he turned to me and smiled, a little forced: "Ms. Su, thank you for telling us this."
Having said that, I guess Chu Yucheng probably trusts me completely.
So I told him that Zhuang Ziyi's body might be in an orphanage that was not open to the public, as well as all the details that I had not dared to tell him before because I was afraid of talking too much.
"Okay, I'll check."
The car started again and Uncle Xu said he would take me back to school.
The atmosphere in the car was heavy. Chu Bin occasionally asked me a few questions and I answered them one by one.
I returned to school, and it wasn’t until I lay in bed that I realized: I haven’t got my memory card back yet!
The topic changed so quickly just now that I actually forgot about this matter!
I took out my phone and sent a message to Chu Yucheng.
But he found that there was an unread message in his phone, which was from Chu Yucheng.
God of Wealth (Face Changing Monster): [I will give the memory card to Luo Han, the eldest son of the Luo family. If you go to give it to him, Xiang Sheng and Qin Ruixia will probably hate you. It is better for me to give it to them.]
Favorability +10.
【Thanks. 】
I thought about it and changed Chu Yucheng's note to his name.
After all, he has invited me to join his anti-evil team. Since he treats me as his own, I should respect him.
Chu Yucheng: [Oh, by the way, there is one more thing I forgot to tell Miss Su. ]
Chu Yucheng: [I also chose University A for my college entrance exam application. We will be classmates soon! ]
Me: [Aren’t you always the top student in your grade? With your grades, you can definitely go to a university in the capital.]
Chu Yucheng: [My brother had just had an accident at that time, and I was a little dazed and didn't perform well. A University is also good, close to home, and I have a lot of things to do here. ]
Although he was born in Rome, he still had a lot to bear.
WeChat has a beeping notification sound.
Chu Yucheng: [Ms. Su, how did you know that I have always been the top student in my grade? ]
I seem to have been exposed again!
I played dead.
Chu Yucheng: [Miss Su?]
Seeing that I couldn't deny it, I started to act mysterious.
【Everyone has secrets.】
Chu Yucheng: [Okay.]
I changed the subject: [Don’t call me Miss Su anymore, call me Senior Sister! ]
Chu Yucheng: [Miss Su should be from the same class as me. ]
I felt a little proud in my heart: [I am one year older than you, so if I don’t call you senior sister, I have to call you sister! ]
Chu Yucheng: [Okay, Senior Sister Su.]
whee.
I don't know why I feel so happy.
