Chapter 147 Rescue (4)
Hearing this, Zhao Ziheng instead revealed a faint bitter smile, but did not say much. Feng Qinghan saw this but also remained silent.
At this moment, a voice sounded behind the two of them: "Young Master!"
Feng Qinghan turned his head slightly and said: "What's the matter?"
The subordinate who came to see Feng Qinghan did not say anything, but bowed his head and remained respectful. Then Feng Qinghan understood and said to Zhao Ziheng: "Excuse me."
Zhao Ziheng nodded. He knew, of course, that Feng Qinghan's subordinate had something to say, and it couldn't be said in front of him, an outsider. However, he didn't care, because for him, nothing was more important than rescuing Yin Yin.
When Feng Qinghan just left, Wang Ye brushed past him and came behind Zhao Ziheng...
"Are you all ready?" Although he didn't turn around, Zhao Ziheng knew very well who was coming behind him, so he asked.
"Yeah." Wang Ye responded.
Zhao Ziheng looked into the distance, and finally withdrew his gaze after a moment, as if reluctant to leave. He turned around and looked at Wang Ye, with no intention of moving. After looking for a while, he said: "Anything else?"
Wang Ye did not answer immediately, but stared at Zhao Ziheng for a long time before slowly speaking: "Before this, I could still see confusion in your eyes, but now it seems that confusion has completely disappeared. What happened?"
Zhao Ziheng was slightly startled when he heard this, but only for a moment. After a moment, a faint smile appeared on his face and he said: "Maybe."
"Because of Young Master Feng?" Wang Ye said bluntly.
Zhao Ziheng looked at Wang Ye steadily. He had not forgotten that Wang Ye had mentioned this more than once. Sometimes he had to admit that Wang Ye's words made sense. However, now... After a moment of silence, Zhao Ziheng said: "Do you still think the same as before?"
"I think there's nothing wrong with being reserved. After all, he's still the 'enemy'."
Wang Ye's answer was a little obscure, but Zhao Ziheng still understood it. It is undeniable that what Wang Ye said made sense. As Wang Ye must know something. In a sense, it is true. Besides, even if they are in a cooperative relationship now, it may not be the case in the future. There is nothing wrong with being reserved.
Seeing that Zhao Ziheng didn't speak, Wang Ye could roughly guess what he was thinking, so there was no need to continue this topic. There was a question he had been thinking about for a long time, and finally he decided to speak up, so: "There is a question I have always wanted to ask."
Zhao Ziheng looked at Wang Ye and did not stop him, motioning him to continue.
"What are your plans after rescuing her? Although you had previously planned to hand over the throne, it now seems clear that he is not prepared to accept it."
At first glance, Wang Ye's question seemed simple and clear, but Zhao Ziheng still heard the hidden meaning. He thought about it for a while before replying: "Some things cannot be changed, so even if he doesn't accept it now, he will not be allowed to not accept it when that day comes."
Wang Ye frowned slightly, as if he was somewhat dissatisfied with Zhao Ziheng's answer, but Zhao Ziheng was indeed answering his question, so it was not easy to find fault. Of course, he believed that Zhao Ziheng absolutely understood what answer he wanted, but unfortunately he was avoided by him.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if trying to adjust his mood. After opening his eyes, Wang Ye spoke seriously and solemnly: "I thought you wouldn't hide anything at this time."
"What do you want to know?" Zhao Ziheng asked back.
"You should know that I just want you and her to be happy."
After hearing this, Zhao Ziheng fell silent.
Perhaps Wang Ye has always known that Zhao Ziheng has been hiding something. Although everyone has their own secrets, Zhao Ziheng's situation is different. He is the person he chooses to be loyal to without reservation. No matter whether it is power, feelings or anything else, he just wants the person he chooses to be truly happy.
After a while, Zhao Ziheng looked directly into Wang Ye's eyes and slowly said: "What about you?"
Wang Ye was startled. Zhao Ziheng's words seemed to come without any warning, but Wang Ye knew clearly what Zhao Ziheng was referring to. He couldn't help but laugh at himself and said, "Fortunately, I'm not your enemy."
Zhao Ziheng didn't say anything, just stared at Wang Ye without blinking. Wang Ye's meaning was very simple. As a friend, he would feel honored and proud to have a friend like Zhao Ziheng, but if he became an enemy, he would definitely be a powerful and terrifying enemy.
"Actually, there is nothing to hide at this point. It would be unfair if we hide it." Wang Ye said calmly.
That's right. Zhao Ziheng knew from the beginning that Wang Ye had a secret, and he had asked about it casually. At that time, Wang Ye did hide it, but what about now? Since Wang Ye asked him not to have a secret, then Wang Ye himself should not have a secret. It's not about fairness or unfairness, but a question of honesty. Zhao Ziheng is very clear about this principle, and Wang Ye also understands it. However, the so-called honesty does not need to be mentioned all the time, so Wang Ye said so.
There is still some time before departure, so it would be nice to talk about the truth. No one knows what will happen next, so just kill time and avoid regrets in the future. No matter what the result is, it would be good to be true for once. With this idea in mind, Zhao Ziheng and Wang Ye confided in each other for the first time since they met.
