Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 615

Chapter 615: 333 Soft and hard tactics

Bai Zhengyi contacted Zhao Qiankun at an inappropriate time, just when it happened to be a taboo for Zhao, causing Zhao not to show any face and his dissatisfaction to be thoroughly exposed in his tone. Although Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi appeared respectable and hypocritical, they were actually quite restrained with women, never behaving inappropriately.

At the moment, the two of them were preoccupied with the affairs of the research institute and hadn’t considered what Zhao might be doing at this hour. They regarded Zhao as a suspect, and hearing his impatient voice, they subconsciously believed that Zhao must have had an ace up his sleeve, which is why he dared to be so arrogant in their presence, not even bothering to put on a facade.

As for Zhao’s ace, it was naturally the evidence gathered from the research institute and Dr. Sun about the Bai Family’s experiments using living subjects!

Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi felt guilty, so when they heard the impatience in Zhao’s voice, their initial suspicions turned into certainty, and they became even more convinced that Zhao indeed had incriminating evidence against them. Despite their anger, they did not dare to lash out at Zhao.

Bai Zhengyi’s face twisted into a somewhat ferocious expression, but the words he spoke were still fairly calm, "Mr. Zhao, there shouldn’t be any unrelated people by your side right now?" He was very cautious and didn’t address the main issue directly, choosing to ask a question instead.

Zhao wasn’t a fool; as soon as he heard these words, he knew Bai Zhengyi must have something to say. He hesitated for a moment, but then asked Han Lingxi and Cheng Lin to leave. Han Lingxi’s eyes rippled with emotion, and she planted a kiss on his cheek, giving him a "I’ll wait for you" look, before obediently wrapping the towel around herself and getting out of bed to leave.

Cheng Lin didn’t want to move, but after Zhao gave her a glance, she clenched her teeth and reluctantly rose from the bed, wrapping herself in a towel and leaving as well.

The door closed gently with a "click," and Bai Zhengyi and Bai Yi on the other end could hear it, causing their expressions to change once again—there was someone in Zhao’s room!

So, he didn’t say anything else, instead pressing his lips together and listening to what Bai Zhengyi was preparing to say to Zhao. _{freewebnσvel.cøm}

The research institute? What research institute?

Stunned by Bai Zhengyi’s question, Zhao quickly pieced things together. It was nearly ten o’clock, and for Bai Zhengyi to initiate contact meant he must be panicking. Could it be the secret research institute orchestrated by Bai Yi that was in trouble? And Bai Zhengyi suspected him of being responsible?

Just as Zhao was about to deny it, he suddenly realized that if it had merely been about him destroying the secret research institute, Bai Zhengyi would be completely furious, possibly even seeking revenge. So why this panic? That’s right, the items from the research institute were not meant to see the light of day! Could it be that Bai Zhengyi thought he had obtained some evidence from inside that could harm the Bai Family?

Zhao smiled at the thought; indeed, he did have evidence against the Bai Family, but the mishap at the secret research institute had nothing to do with him. He had initially planned to let Bai Ye and Bai Yi fight amongst themselves, depleting the strength of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, and after some time, use the evidence he had to disgrace the Bai Family completely. However, since Bai Zhengyi had come to him willingly, he would be remiss not to take advantage of the situation!
