Chapter 671 - For The Game
Chapter 671: For The Game
After a moment of silence, Grandma Jiang asked, “Yes… Who exactly is that presence?”
“Someone with a powerful background; someone who can go against the military at will! He’s not someone that we can afford to go against. All these years, to hide what happened before, I’ve helped them do more unforgivable things. Understand? Satisfied now?
“Therefore, if I confess and implicate all of you after I get captured, don’t think that I’m being heartless. If you hadn’t forced me to do that, I wouldn’t have committed so many crimes just to hide a single crime.”
After saying that, Zhong Kuijun went upstairs to his study and never came out again.
He could not be bothered to care about what the Jiang family said or discussed on the first floor.
To be frank, Zhong Kuijun could not know for sure whether he had been targeted or otherwise. He simply felt very anxious lately like something bad was about to happen, especially when he used his phone to call Nuannuan earlier. The moment he realized she blacklisted him, this bad feeling intensified.
From that morning at the hospital when he had lost his composure in front of Chi Yang to the time when the military base only asked him a few unimportant questions before letting him go, he felt like he was currently facing the calm before the storm.
The fact that Nuannuan blacklisted him struck him like the first clap of thunder before the storm.

Unlike the solemn atmosphere at the Zhong family and the Jiang family house, Selina’s house was very lively tonight.
After all, she had plans to develop a romantic relationship with Young Brother Leng in the future. Thus, Selina took Young Brother Leng’s father’s visit very seriously.
Selina asked the butler to send the orders down to clean up the house. Then, she called Zhong Nuannuan and asked her what Leng Jinpeng liked and what he could and liked to eat. After that, she started to get busy.
During this time, Aiden sized up Selina with a resentful gaze. He glared at Selina for a while before turning to his computer. Then, he looked at Selina again for a while before turning back to his computer. Rinse and repeat.
When Selina was almost done with her work, she sat down on the sofa and placed her hand on Aiden’s shoulder like a boss. She looked at the portrait that had already darkened on his computer screen and smiled.
“Why? You can’t bear to see me get married?”
Aiden glared at Selina. His resentful gaze did not look like one who was looking at his soon-to-be-deceased girlfriend nor soon-to-be-married sister. Instead, it seemed like he was looking at a strong and unshakable love rival.
Selina looked into Aiden’s eyes and clicked her tongue in disapproval.
“Do you know what your gaze reminds me of?”
“You’re reminded of how cruel you’ve always been to me.”
Selina shook her head. “No.”
“You’re reminded that our many years of friendship are about to end.”
Selina shook her head. “No.”
“You think I’m pitiful, and you want to pity me, but you can’t because you’re laughing madly inside.”
Selina shook her head. “No.”
“I don’t know!” Aiden turned his face away and restarted the game. He did not want to talk to her anymore. There was just too much pain.
If the Almighty was willing to be with him, Aiden truly did not mind being gay for the sake of the game.
He was even more passionate in games than Selina. He was the kind of person who could give up all his time and money for games.
However, despite buying all kinds of equipment and became the person with the grandest equipment in the game, it could not hide the aura of the nouveau riche in him.
