Chapter 483: Ru Xue is the Traitor?
Why? Why did she have to do this?
Li Mazi trembledas he lookedat the number on the phone screen.
After a long time, he grabbed my arm, asking in a disbelieving tone,LittleBrother Zhang,canyou tell me why she had to do this? You know how much I love her!
Li Mazis tears rolled down his face. I was also shocked as thest person this mysterious person had contacted was Ru Xue!
I didnt know how tofort Li MazisinceRu Xue was probably a traitor.
It was Ru Xue who had insisted that we visit Mn. She was also the onewhohad chosen this hotel.Moreover,shemight be the one who had triedto kill Li Mazi in their hotel room that night. Perhapsthefemale ghost didnt have anything to do with it.
Then, atthest moment, sherecalledhowmuchLi Mazilovedher and decided to let him go.However,I didnt know how Ru Xue was rted to that mysterious person.Did they buy her, or was it possible thatshe was the enemys pawnright from the start?
Several questionspopped upin my head. However,I thoughtaboutLi Mazis loveforher, soI saidcalmly, You dont need to panic. Theremightbea reasonbehind this
A reasonbehind this?
Li Mazi wiped histears. In aself-mockingvoice, he said,What kind ofthing couldmake her give up our love and marriage?
Then, he held his head lowand saidnothingas we headedback to the hotel.I was afraid that he wouldstart fighting withRu Xueas soon as we got back. However, Ididnt know what to say and just followedhim.
When we wereinthe corridor, Li Mazi halted for a moment before he entered his room. He lookedat mewith bloodshoteyes. LittleBrother Zhang, I, Li Mazi, am not a good person,but I know who treats me well. Youve saved my life many times, andI can never repay this favor. If she sells us this time, I will kill her with my own hands. Then,I will turn myselftothe police.
Li Mazi knocked on the door, and as soon as we entered the room,heseemed to be another person. He smiled and happily chatted with Ru Xue and Yin Xinyue. He madethe womenugh continuously. Compared to him, I looked so unnatural. Yin Xinyue secretly asked me a few times ifanything wasbotheringme.
Li Mazisnwassimple. He wanted totestRu Xue.WhenYin Xinyue and I returned to our room, I told her the story.
Impossible! This is impossible! Yin Xinyue shook her headandrantednonstop. She didnt evenstopto think. Ru Xue is a good girl. Youvemisunderstood her!
I knew that theyhad a good rtionship, but I had to tellherfrankly. Li Mazi and I want to trust Ru Xue, but things have nowe to this. We cant just consider love orrtionships. If Li Mazi and I hadnt overheard the conversation between the ghost and that mysterious person, Im afraid Li Mazi would have died.
Yin Xinyue decided to trust me. Her voice grew sad. Brother Zhang, if itwasmy phone, would you treat me the same?
Willit happen one day? Iughed then pulled her into my embrace.Yin Xinyue smiled and leaned againstmy shoulder.
At around midnight, I got upand wentto Li Mazis room, knockingon his door. He soon opened the doorand asked,Whats going on?
Ru Xue was on the bed, smiling at us. I didnt know what she was thinking.
We should go to that church now! I cant ease my mind if we dont finish off that ghost! I almost screamed.
While talking, I shot Li Mazi a nce. Li Mazi was a little surprised, but heunderstood what I meant. He turned and told Ru Xue to sleep with Yin Xinyue. Then, he left the hotel with me.
We returned to the hotel shortly after and hidin the corridor to watch Ru Xues movements. Li Maziseyes bulged, and hisbodyshookuncontrobly. He was afraid that he would see something he didnt want to see.I was scared, too.
Yin Xinyue cooperated with us. After we left, she went to Ru Xues room.
We wanted to help Ru Xue. As long as she wasnt going to contact that mysterious person, we wouldnt mind what had happened previously. Yin Xinyue was there to watch Ru Xue.
Unfortunately, the mobile phone in my hand rang. It was Ru Xues call.
Hahaha
Li Maziughed bitterly. He didnt say a wordand wentto his room, his bodyshakinghard. When he got to the door, he suddenly slumped onto the ground.
LittleBrother Zhang, help me up!He tried to get up a few times, but he couldnt.His tears rolledas he askedfor my help.
The corner of my mouth convulsed. I didnt mind Li Mazi and opened the door.
I saw Yin Xinyue sitting on the bed, butRu Xue was nowhere to be seen. Yin Xinyue saw me. She didnt talkand gesturedtoward the toilet. She also lookedhelpless.
All right, go back to our room and wait for me. Icaressedher face.
Yin Xinyue nodded and left. Then, I waited outside the toiletand litup a cigarette.
Meanwhile, the mysterious mans phone in my hand kept shing. All the calls were from Ru Xue. Li Mazistoodupand leanedagainst the wall, dumbly lookingat the door to the toilet.
Finally, the door openedandRu Xue walked out. She was startled when she saw usand asked us in a suspicious tone,Oh, you are backalready?Did you solve everything?
Ru Xue, youare still in the mood to pretend?I was blindto loveyou! Li Mazi roared crazily.He was about topRu Xue, buthis hand halted halfway.
Gosh! You shouldjustleave! From now on, we are just strangers!Li Mazi didnt want to hurt Ru Xue. He wavedandaskedher to leave. I understoodand movedaside tomake way forher.
Ru Xue looked hurt. She jumped towardLi Maziand huggedhim. Her voice choked with sobs. You dontwantme anymore? Did I dosomethingwrong? Am Inot good enough?
Li Mazi had tears all over his face, but hegently pushed Ru Xue aside.
All right, Illleave! Ru Xue looked at Li Maziin bewildermentfor a longtime. Then, she gave a self-mocking smileand rubbedher belly that had a smallbump. She put on her jacket and bag, then left.As she walked,she rummaged through her bag. She wassearching for something.
When shepletely disappeared fromour sight, Li Mazi fellonhis kneesandpainfullypoundedhis head to the wall.
It was really hard to ept the fact that your loved one had sold you to the enemy. I understood his pain, but I couldnt standtosee my brotherharmhimself.I went to the restaurant downstairs and bought a few bottles of wine. Li Mazi and I loved to stay in the antique shopto drinkwineand enjoysome light snacks.It was the time whenwe enjoyed ourpanionship and discussedourbusiness casesandour future.
But it was different now. None of us said anything. We just kept gulping expensive red wine as though it was water. At the same time, we smoked a lot.
Li Maziwas stillcrying, butI didnt know how tofort him. All I could do was stay with himand keep hipany.
Who said that drinking red wine wouldnt make you drunk? Because Li Mazi was drunk already. And who said that men didnt cry easily?Because right now we couldn''t stop crying.
I didnt know howmuchtime had passed, but after drinking all the bottles and smoking all the cigarettes, Li Mazi and I were lying on the ground like two dumb men.
At thismoment, someone suddenly visited us. When he saw us, he screamed in surprise. Zhang, are you guys okay? What happened?
Ilooked up and sawMarco. Igotupand shookmy head to clear my mind.Why are you here?
I found a mobile phone outside. Its from your country, and it has Mr. Lis picture as thescreensaver. I guessedoneof youlost this phone.Marcowaved his hand. I tried to focusmy attention and saw that it was Ru Xues phone.
After listeningtoMarco, Li Mazi reactedand quickly gotup. Where did you find this phone? Andwhen?
Around twilight on the small path that leads to the Ghost Castle. My fatherknewwhere you wanted to go. Hewasworried that you would encounter something unexpected,so he asked me to go there to find you. But when I got to the castle, I didnt see you guys.
Marcospread his armsand lookedat the room, which wasa mess. He didnt even have a ce tostand. Then, heasked, Zhang, did something happen?
Its all right. Thank you,Marco. I pattedMarcos shoulder and received the phone from him. Li Mazi and I then crazily dashed downstairs.
IfMarcohad picked up Ru Xues phone before the incident, the one that had just called the mysterious man wasnt Ru Xue. Someone else had used her phone to do that!
