Chapter 264 Hanging on the Southeast Branch
When Zhao Ruoming opened his eyes, he found himself lying on a bed.
Just in case, the moment she went to the trial court, she casually threw Di Wanshu back into the bathtub and cut her skin back to Duan Hongji.
After all, this is the Di family, and Fu Dongshu's identity is still a bit eye-catching.
Time was tight, so Zhao Ruoming found a sofa and sat down, pretending to be Duan Hongji taking a nap. How come after waking up, he was lying on the bed?
Zhao Ruoming was puzzled and sat up, but saw an unexpected figure.
"Emperor Hantian?"
Di Hantian was sitting on the sofa, massaging his temples slowly. After hearing this voice, he opened his eyes and looked at Duan Hongji.
Has Di Hantian won over all those guests?
"You're awake." Di Hantian said in a low voice.
Zhao Ruoming didn't know how to react, so he just said "hmm".
She thought she would see Di Wanshu when she opened her eyes - by the way, where is Di Wanshu? If she doesn't fish him out, he will become a giant!
Di Hantian examined Duan Hongji's expression and whispered, "What's going on between you and my uncle?"
Zhao Ruoming: “…”
What else could it be? Which one do you prefer, Undying or Ruthless?
Seeing that Duan Hongji didn’t answer, Di Hantian’s face darkened slightly: “I went to ask my uncle something…but I saw you on the sofa, and I saw him in the bathroom.”
Duan Hongji was sleeping on the sofa, while Di Wanshu was soaking in the bathtub with his head outside. This scene was like a horror movie. It was only because Di Hantian had a strong psychological quality that he did not scream out on the spot.
Di Hantian first tried Di Wanshu's breath, and only heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that the other party was not dead.
There had been enough farce at this banquet.
To be honest, at that moment, Di Hantian thought about drowning Di Wanshu in the bathtub and then putting the blame on Duan Hongji.
He was horrified by his own darkness and meanness at that moment and quickly gave up this dangerous idea.
Di Wanshu can't just stay in the bathtub forever, but how should he explain when he asks someone to come in and take Di Wanshu away and sees Duan Hongji sitting on the sofa?
As a last resort, Di Hantian had to walk up to Duan Hongji who was sitting on the sofa and try to wake him up.
Duan Hongji was sleeping very soundly. Di Hantian called him several times but there was no response.
Di Hantian looked at Duan Hongji's still tired sleeping face, and suddenly put his hands on Duan Hongji's neck!
Of course he didn't do it. His fingers were just loosely wrapped around Duan Hongji's neck, imitating a gesture of strangling Duan Hongji to death.
This posture lasted for a few long seconds, then Di Hantian withdrew his hand and carried Duan Hongji to the bed.
After finishing this, Di Hantian called the servants and asked them to take Di Wanshu to another room. Then he sat down and stayed beside Duan Hongji.
He felt very strange. Logically, he should stay by his uncle's side and monitor Di Wanshu at all times, so as not to give the half-human, half-ghost guy any chance to take advantage of him.
However, he inexplicably didn't want to leave Duan Hongji. He just wanted to stare at him like this until...
Until what, he couldn't explain clearly.
Duan Hongji's expression turned slightly cold when he heard Di Hantian's question, and then he said perfunctorily: "I came to talk to Mr. Di about something, but I waited and waited and no one showed up, and I actually fell asleep on the sofa."
Di Hantian knew that the other party was too lazy to answer. After that incident, Di Hantian had grown a lot. Logically, he shouldn't ask these boring questions. But looking at Duan Hongji's indifferent face, he couldn't help but ask: "What do you want to talk to him about?"
Zhao Ruoming paused. Nephew, don’t you think you talk too much?
Seeing this, Di Hantian became even more stubborn: "I am obviously the head of the Di family, why are you looking for my uncle?"
Zhao Ruoming: "..." How can I talk to you about this? Are you a masochist?
Upon seeing this, Di Hantian became even more certain - Duan Hongji already knew that he had been sidelined!
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something. At this moment, the door opened with a bang, without any wind.
Di Hantian turned around in shock, only to see Di Wanshu sitting in a wheelchair, standing at the door with an expressionless face.
"go out."
Di Hantian took a second to realize that Di Wanshu was talking to him.
At that moment, a surge of anger rose up, and Di Hantian said coldly: "Uncle has been taking a cold bath for a long time, shouldn't he rest for a while?"
Di Wanshu obviously didn't have the patience to waste time talking to his nephew. With a wave of his hand, Di Hantian fell to his knees on the ground as if all his bones had been pulled out!
Di Hantian looked at Di Wanshu in disbelief. His vision gradually blurred, and the last image in his eyes was Di Wanshu's pale hand.
Zhao Ruoming looked at Di Hantian who had fainted on the ground and raised his eyebrows: "Are you not going to act anymore?"
"When he wakes up, he won't remember anything."
After Di Wanshu briefly answered Zhao Ruoming, he pushed his wheelchair into the house and the door closed automatically behind him.
Zhao Ruoming was in a good mood. After seeing Di Wanshu's defense break, he was even happier: "Mr. Di, what did you come to see me for?"
"I have something to ask you."
Suddenly, Di Wanshu came to Zhao Ruoming's bedside and asked, "When did you prepare all this?"
Di Wanshu had always been a person with little curiosity, so it was rare that he could condescend to ask his own questions. Unfortunately, the person being asked was obviously not interested.
Zhao Ruoming yawned: "Well... without any preparation, the opportunity came quietly."
What a joke! If I answer this question directly, I will prove in front of Emperor Wanshu that Zhao Ruoming is connected with the Great Supervisory Organization. Zhao Ruoming is not that stupid.
Di Wanshu narrowed his eyes and asked in a different way: "Why did you prepare all this?"
Zhao Ruoming didn't know about the practice of the Book Department to discriminate against Earthlings, and she didn't know that she couldn't enter the headquarters. If that was the case, how could she have predicted it and contacted the Great Supervisory Organization in advance to have them transfer 584?
Zhao Ruoming looked at Di Wanshu in a strange way. She found that these races that claimed to be advanced civilizations were arrogant to the point of being stupid, and did not even understand the most basic social etiquette.
In Zhao Ruoming's hometown, even a seven-year-old child knows that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. The Book-Traveling Department is the lair of Emperor Wanshu. Zhao Ruoming is not crazy. How could she choose to hand over herself and the materials she worked hard to find bugs to the Book-Traveling Department?
First you put in a 584, and then you send yourself away? What, is the original soup the original food?
"If your questions are all about stupid stuff, then please go back." Zhao Ruoming was ready to lie down and take a nap. Tomorrow, no, it was already today, and she was going to see a movie with Duan Ye.
Di Wanshu leaned forward and grabbed the corner of Zhao Ruoming's quilt: "You asked 203 to pretend to be me and reply to that idiot 999?"
Zhao Ruoming pretended to be dumb and asked, "What is 999? Is it medicine for colds?"
Zhao Ruoming's plan was very simple. She just contacted the Grand Supervisory Organization in advance and asked them to take away 584. On her side, she would go to Di Wanshu to buy time, to prevent Di Wanshu from returning to the Book-Traveling Department early and discovering that 584 had been taken away, and then causing trouble.
The two were in the same space, and the signal from the Book-Traveling Department could not have escaped the eyes of 203. After 999 sent the notification, Zhao Ruoming asked 203 to intercept its message, and then he replied "Got it" on behalf of Di Wanshu. At that time, Di Wanshu was being whipped and almost became a hanged ghost, and his mental strength was inevitably scattered, so he didn't notice that his message was intercepted.
Of course, this cannot be said out loud.
Zhao Ruoming was not worried at all that Di Wanshu would settle accounts with him because of this matter.
You want to investigate our 203, right? 203 replaced the Minister of the Book Department and falsely passed on the imperial edict. This matter is not understood in the department, so we can only go to a higher-level organization to investigate. But what kind of case could make the system do such a serious thing as impersonating a minister? - Oh, before investigating the false imperial edict case, let's discuss the issue of the cover novel first, right?
To put it bluntly, this case was originally a mess that could not be settled. When the trial was conducted within the Book Department, officials could still protect each other and take the blame for Di Wanshu. Now that the Great Supervisory Organization has been involved, we really have to get to the bottom of it...
Thank you. Then we can all hang ourselves together.
Good news! From the director to the non-staff employees, all the staff in the Book Department have been arrested!
Di Wanshu pursed his lips, looked at Zhao Ruoming's impatient expression, and suddenly asked, "Did you really come to me just to delay time?"
Speaking of this, Zhao Ruoming is no longer sleepy.
Zhao Ruoming reached out and lifted Di Wanshu's chin. "Of course not."
Di Wanshu held Zhao Ruoming's fingers and asked hoarsely, "What's that for?"
Zhao Ruoming pulled out his fingers impatiently and patted Di Wanshu's face.
"So I can beat you up for a good reason, of course. Idiot."
Looking at Di Wanshu's stunned expression, Zhao Ruoming added with a smile: "There are too few opportunities like this where you can be beaten without taking responsibility~ By the way, Mr. Minister, the way you try so hard to repair yourself while being beaten is not worth much."
