Chapter 36 Late Night Quest
Zhao Zhizhi just thought that he misunderstood that he was planning to steal something. Regardless of the pain on his jaw, he quickly explained: "I didn't take anything else. Really, if you don't believe me, you can search me."

Wei Shao looked at her intently for a long time and suddenly let go of her.

However, he did not reduce his strength. After Zhao Zhizhi was released from the shackles, he staggered back and his waist directly hit the wooden table.

Zhao Zhizhi's expression changed quickly, and he gritted his teeth and endured it.

The atmosphere fell into an eerie calm.

Even though Wei Shao didn't say anything and just stood there quietly, Zhao Zhizhi felt a lot of pressure.

This is just like bloodline suppression in the animal world. As an "inferior" creature, Zhao Zhizhi cannot think of resistance at all.

"Well, young hero, I didn't break your jade pendant on purpose. How about you tell me a price? If I don't pay back, I'll owe it first and pay you back slowly in the future, okay?"

Zhao Zhizhi carefully raised his eyes to look at Wei Shao's face, and was so frightened that he did not dare to express his anger.

If she had known that facing him was so scary, she might as well have left a letter inside the house, so that she would not have to experience such a terrifying Shura field.

Wei Shao was unmoved by her slow whisper and only said coldly:

"Don't clean my room in the future without my permission."

Zhao Zhizhi should have agreed with guilt, but she didn't know where the anger came from. She just felt aggrieved. Her brain was hot, and she held her neck and shouted: "Whoever comes to your room, I will never step into it again." Come."

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes turned red. She resisted the violent turmoil and turned around to leave.

But she quickly thought of something and said with a cold face: "I know that your jade pendant is very valuable. No matter how much money, I am willing to compensate you, even if it takes me a lifetime to repay this debt."

Her stubbornness failed to change Wei Shao's expression at all, and he only stared at her back with cold eyes.

From beginning to end, what Wei Shao cared about was not the jade pendant.

After Zhao Zhizhi left, he closed the door, walked to the bed with a cold face, took out a protruding brick in the corner, reached in, and took out an old letter.

After confirming that it was intact, the coldness on Wei Shao's face faded a bit, but there was still a chilling anger in his eyes.

Originally, he had already relaxed his vigilance towards Zhao Zhizhi, thinking that she was just an ordinary villager.

Now that she suddenly appeared in his room in the name of cleaning, it was hard not to make people suspect that she was prepared.

Wei Shao couldn't help clenching his fists when he thought that she was a spy sent by a political enemy.

A ruthless plan was formed in an instant.

Late at night, the faint sound of cicadas chirping could be heard in the courtyard, mixed with the sound of frogs, making it quiet and noisy.

Suddenly, a black shadow fell in the courtyard. He walked to the right wing next to the main house without any guilt, and stood at the door. After a while, he stretched out his hand to open the door.

With a very soft "squeak", the man stepped into the room.

The moonlight reflected through the half-open window onto the man's face, instantly exposing Wei Shao's figure.

The room was filled with the faint scent of traditional Chinese medicine from a woman, with a hint of bitterness in the sweetness.

Wei Shao looked at the bulge on the bed expressionlessly, clenching his hands unconsciously.

He came here in the middle of the night just to test Zhao Zhizhi.

If she was really a spy sent by his political opponents to lurk around him, she would not be indifferent to the threat of life and death. No matter how tough her psychological quality was, her muscles would show signs of conditioned reflexes.

He stepped closer to the double-sized hard stone bed, and only the outline of the woman could be seen in his dim vision.

Silver light flashed slightly, and Wei Shao pulled out a sharp dagger.Zhao Zhizhi didn't react at all, and she could even be heard snoring like a sheep.

Wei Shao put the dagger across her neck. If she was pretending to sleep, she would definitely feel the shuddering coldness.

For some unknown purpose, Wei Shao leaned down and observed Zhao Zhizhi's reaction at close range.

This action allowed him to finally clearly see Zhao Zhizhi's facial features.

In addition to her chubby face, her appearance is actually very delicate, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, a small cherry mouth, and two small pear dimples at the corners of her mouth when she smiles, making her look like a cute fat doll.

It's a pity that she was too fat, which caused her facial features to be squeezed and lost her original beauty.

If you just look at her appearance, she doesn't have much aggression.

But Wei Shao knew his political opponents very well and would do anything to achieve his goals. It was not impossible to raise a seemingly ordinary killer like Zhao Zhizhi.

Thinking of this, Wei Shao pressed the dagger downward again, leaving marks on Zhao Zhizhi's skin. If he took another step forward, blood would be visible.

However, instead of waking up, Zhao Zhizhi suddenly stretched out his hands like a nightmare and waved them twice in the air, "No, don't kill me. I didn't mean to do it. I'll pay you any amount of money."

The sound gradually weakened and then disappeared.

A gust of wind came in through the window, and Zhao Zhizhi shrank uncontrollably.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Shao put the knife and dagger back.

He stood up and stared at the sleeping Zhao Zhizhi with dark eyes. The whispers coming out of his mouth were like a beast squatting on the ground guarding its prey, and every word contained danger.

"Zhao Zhizhi, I will give you another chance. If one day I find out that you are lying to me, I will definitely make you regret coming to this world."

As if another gust of wind was blowing, the window made a "squeak" sound.

Zhao Zhizhi no longer felt the coldness and slept very comfortably all night.

Only when she woke up, she felt something strange on her neck. She searched carefully with her hands and found nothing, so she thought she was being careless.

After some sleep, she figured it out.

Let alone Wei Shao, if it were her, if her precious things were bumped and broken by others, she would probably be even more angry than Wei Shao.

What's more, that jade pendant seems to be valuable and may have some profound meaning.

I'm afraid it's something inherited, so Zhao Zhizhi is really to blame for his death.

That's what she said, but she meant well after all, and besides, she thought that she and Wei Shao were already good friends.

Unexpectedly, she is really self-righteous.

Zhao Zhizhi was sitting on the bed, with a variety of expressions on his face, sometimes guilty, sometimes frowning, sometimes excited, sometimes sad.

She never thought about why she had such a big emotional change, she just pretended that she had never suffered such senseless grievances.

Now, it is definitely impossible for her to go to Wei Shao to ask for forgiveness.

She knew it was her fault, but there was a stubbornness in her heart that kept her from bowing her head.

Zhao Zhizhi let out a long sigh and said to himself in despair:

"It's better to wait for him to calm down first. Going over it now may only make people more angry."
