NOVEL NEXT Chapter 122
Chapter 122 – Is That Why You Trust Me?
Chapter 122 You just trust me like that?
The extended version of Lincoln stops in front of the garden of a single-family house.
The green creepers covered the whole villa, and the delicate roses bloomed quietly.
Full of Gothic-style architecture, it is quite difficult to connect with Egard in front of him.
“how?”
“Could it be that Ms. Cen thought we would be rats living in the stinking ditch?”
Seeing her surprised expression, Egard laughed at himself.
But ever since their family was kicked out of Jinjiang City, they were really down and out.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a rat in the stinky gutter.
But fortunately, the glory of the family will return to this ancient castle one day.
“That’s not that exaggerated, I’m just lamenting that your homeland craftsman is quite skillful.”
At least these delicate roses are well bred.
This ancient castle is full of ancient taste, which is enough to show the heritage of this family.
It’s just that Cen Qing still respects the secrets of other families.
“It’s Wales, he always likes to play with these flowers and plants.”
Egard shrugged.
Then his eyes fell on the man in the butler’s uniform standing aside.
“People in the Dannister family prefer rose flowers, not to mention that this is also my job.”
Wales performed a standard butler etiquette towards the two of them.
His gray hair made his face look more serious.
But the gaze that fell on Egard was a little more profound.
“Hey, this is the same rhetoric again.”
Egard spread his hands helplessly, but still stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
Although he has heard these words since he was a child, his ears are almost callused.
But Wales is the housekeeper left by his father, and the relationship between them is better than family affection.
“Then does this beautiful lady need a cup of rose tea?”
Wales put his hands behind his waist, and looked at Cen Qing with olive green eyes.
I am used to dislike Egard.
“Of course, thanks.”
She hasn’t had a meal since morning, and she’s hungry and thirsty now.
It should be a blessing to have a cup of scented tea to cushion your stomach.
The servants in the front row led the two of them into the study room. The furnishings in the villa were undoubtedly precipitated by history.
Antique vase, century oil painting…
“This is our family’s old house.”
Egard stroked the handrail of the stairs in the hallway, where his grandfather used to meet guests.
The people who come and go are all the celebrities and dignitaries of Jinjiang City.
But now, I am afraid that no one remembers the surname of the Dannister family.
“Is that why you trust me?”
There should be a living room to receive guests. In such a confidential place as the study, Egard really does not regard himself as an outsider.
Cen Qing complained silently in his heart, but began to look at this place without any trace.
“Otherwise? I don’t have anyone I can trust.”
Egard sat on the main seat, and exhaled heavily.
Q Group has monopolized the market share of Jinjiang City for more than ten years, and its relationship with the political circle is even more complicated.
From the outside, it is even more impenetrable, so it can only be broken in from the inside.
And Cen Qing is undoubtedly his best choice.
“Don’t make yourself so pitiful, I didn’t promise to cooperate with you.”
It would be best if the Q Group can be pulled down in one fell swoop, but if it fails, it will be the wrath of Fu Xichen and the entire board of directors.
Cen Qing asked himself that he didn’t have that much ability yet.
In short, the two people who are facing each other now have their own thoughts, and neither of them confessed first.
Boom boom boom—
A knock on the door broke the silence in the study.
Wales brought an exquisite tray and said respectfully,
“I hope my arrival will not disturb the young master’s reception.”
“No, we are still staring at each other.”
Egard leaned back and took the scented tea from Wales.
“It smells good, I still like your craftsmanship.”
The scented tea is fragrant, and there are rose petals floating on the surface of the tea.
And Wales also thoughtfully prepared snacks for the two of them with scented tea.
I can only say that it is so caring!
“How does Miss Cen feel?”
“not bad.”
It’s good to have something to eat and some to drink. What kind of bicycle do you need?
Cen Qing expressed his satisfaction.
“Tsk, that’s not what you said when you first came here.”
Hearing her praise, Egard muttered in a low voice, even with a little grievance in his tone.
“What did you say?”
Cen Qing didn’t hear what he said, so he asked again.
But the matter was quickly interrupted by Wales.
“The young master is praising the delicious snacks I made.”
Cen Qing glanced at the plate of untouched snacks, and silently looked away.
I always feel that the master and servant have some secret.
And there seems to be a bit of disagreement between actions, words and deeds.
But Cen Qing didn’t intend to explore this matter, after all, it has nothing to do with her.
“It’s really delicious.”
After drinking scented tea and eating snacks, it’s time to talk about business.
“Tell me about your plan, how do you want to bring down the Q Group?”
Cen Qing was straightforward, piercing the layer of window paper.
Before doing business, always check the sincerity of the other party.
“You are as straightforward as ever.”
Egard sipped his tea slowly, his gaze kept on the red roses blooming outside the window.
Unconsciously, he uttered what was in his heart.
“So, you knew me before.”
In fact, this matter is not so difficult to guess.
Cen Qing had been paying attention since he precisely found her.
Although she has no memory of the original owner, she can feel that Egard seems to be very familiar with her.
Even the clothes she chose fit her vision.
In addition, the two of them got along very well, it was hard not to let her think about it.
“You remember?”
“It shouldn’t be, how could that person remind you of this?”
Egard continued to think about it, but he didn’t hide his thoughts in his heart at all.
“No, how did your brain inherit this family?”
The corners of Cen Qing’s mouth twitched slightly, saying hurtful words without going through his brain.
It seems that the relationship between them is not good enough to harm each other.
However, this inexplicable familiarity surprised Cen Qing.
“You’re laughing at me again, like you can get out of that person’s grasp.”
Everyone should let each other go, isn’t it okay?
Egard stopped drinking tea with a straight posture, and spread his hands open.
“Since you’ve already remembered it, let’s not bother and just follow the process.”
As he spoke, Egard stood up and fiddled with the books on the shelf behind him.
Immediately afterwards, a secret passage appeared in front of the two of them.
This operation made Cen Qing stunned.
I always feel that she was right just now.
Also, did she say that she regained her memory?
“Why are you still standing there, come in.”
Egard beckoned to Cen Qing, which did not treat her as an outsider at all.
“Ah this…”
That’s fine.
