The Villain's Wife Chapter 576 Deception

The Villain's Wife 576 Deception

"Miss Chen… this is not just about us." Zhou Huifang uttered. "We have rallied people that she offended in the past and … we are adamant on destroying her." To Zhou Huifang, the reason why his father is not the CEO of their company is because of Lily.

In response, Chen s.h.i.+ narrowed her eyes. "You are hiding something." She uttered. "What is it? What is your true goal?" Chen s.h.i.+ had been scheming since she was a child. Does this people think that they could just lie in front of her face like this? She sneered inwardly.

"Well… I believe that is the only thing that you needed to know for now. We will tell you all the details once you decide to work with us." Qi Xia eyed Zhou Huifang. He knows that Zhou Huifang is desperate to ruin Zhou Jingren. However, in his opinion, informing someone as treacherous as this Chen s.h.i.+ is the wrong move. It is always better to keep some information to themselves.

However, Zhou Huifang does not think like this. He opened his mouth and decided to tell Chen s.h.i.+ bits and pieces of their plan. "We are targeting Zhou Capital and Zhou Wu Yang's company. We need some distractions. Surely a troubled Lily is enough to make distract her husband."

Qi Xia instantly frowned. He wanted to slap his own face at this man's stupidity. How could he think that Chen s.h.i.+ is a simple person that would not take advantage of their plans? He gritted his teeth. He understood that Zhou Huifang is desperate but… this is just too much!

He already told him not to tell Chen s.h.i.+ about this to avoid some complications! How could Zhou Huifang act so careless now?

"Zhou Jingren's father?" As expected, Chen s.h.i.+ instantly showed interest at the mention of Zhou Capital and Zhou Wu Yang. Their conversation was interrupted when the door was opened and the attendant that served Chen s.h.i.+ earlier walked inside with the orders that Chen Luan made for them.

The trio did not utter a word as they waited for the woman to leave.

"Tell me about his father." Chen s.h.i.+ continued when the attendant left. "And tell me about this… plan."

"We can't tell you anything for now. If you want to find out about his father, then… you do the research. And as for our plans… you will know everyone once you agreed to work with us." Qi Xia said, his face stern. He wanted to end this meeting before the stupid Zhou Huifang could make another mistake.

"Really?" Sarcasm laced Chen s.h.i.+'s tone. She eyed Zhou Huifang, then smiled at Qi Xia. "Well then… I will call you tonight. I needed some time to decide about this matter." She then stood from her seat. "I already paid for the coffee." She uttered before leaving the room with Chen Luan.

The moment she left, Qi Xia's face instantly turned dark. "Are you crazy?"

"What?" Zhou Huifang asked.

"How could you tell her about Zhou Jingren's father? That woman… is dangerous! Don't you understand?" Qi Xia grew up in a household surrounded by entertainers. Both of his parents were in the entertainment industry for years! Surely, she can spot a fake person like Chen s.h.i.+.

"Xia… relax." Zhou Huifang leaned against the chair and gave a languid smile. The distressing reaction that he showed Chen s.h.i.+ earlier vanished as if it was never there in the first place.

"What do you mean? Obviously, she is looking down on us!"

"Let her," Zhou Huifang smirked. "Let her underestimate us. Let her think that we are stupid. Let her insult us." He elegantly took a sip of his coffee. "All warfare is based on deception. As someone who experienced Lily's schemes… you should already know that." He looked at the man sitting next to him.

"Huifang…" Qi Xia didn't continue his words. Deception? He met his eyes as he furrowed his brows. "So you wanted her to let her guard down? Why? She is not the enemy."

Zhuo Huifang clicked her tongue before he gave a low chuckle. "She is smart and cunning. She is resourceful and experienced. We all know that she is more influential than us. In front of dominant power, we need to act weak. Let her think that we are not capable of betraying her."

"Then… we can be her ally. Use her resources and plans. We can use her influence and once she tries to do something against us… we retaliate at the most unexpected moment." Zhou Huifang pursed his lips as he tilted his face towards his friend. "Do you get it?"

Qi Xia frowned. For some reason, this Zhou Huifang seemed to change a lot since Zhou Kang's disappearance. His eyes had become sharper, his brains more alert, and his smile… is more sinister. Slowly, he nodded at Zhou Huifang's words.

"You see… a war needed resources. If we can win a war by using other people, then… why not? We can watch as Chen s.h.i.+ scheme against them. Then… wait for Lily and Zhou Jingren to become exhausted. And… we strike them."

For the second time, Qi Xia nodded. "Are you sure that we are capable of turning the shareholder against Zhou Jingren's father?"

"Of course! They saw what my father did to the company! They knew what he is capable of. Just because the company belongs to him by birth, doesn't mean that he should manage it. Zhou Wu Yang had been gone for too long. He doesn't have any idea how to run a company."

"Alright then… we should go" Qi Xia said as he rose and from his seat. The duo then left the restaurant with their confident smiles.

Meanwhile, Lily was smiling from ear to ear. She was lying on her husband's legs as she looked at the calendar on her phone. "Two more weeks." She uttered.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Jingren asked. He was reading a doc.u.ment when Lily asked if she could use his leg as her pillow. Despite knowing that they have more than four pillows in the bed, Zhou Jingren complied without saying anything.

"Two weeks!" Lily repeated as she rolled her eyes and beamed. "Two more weeks!"
