Chapter 240: Crisis of Trust
NovelFire.cσ๓ Zhang Ming appeared somewhat helpless, as he also wasn’t entirely convinced of Xiao Yifei’s reliability, but as he himself said, there really was no other choice at the moment.
"Xiao, I can only choose to trust you now, and I do feel somewhat sorry for involving you in this, as you can see, this must be a conspiracy. I have dragged you into this mess, but I had no choice! All you need to do is your best; even if you don’t succeed, I won’t blame you," Zhang Ming said.
He looked at Xiao Yifei with a solemn yet very sincere gaze.
Xiao Yifei was aware he hadn’t accomplished anything, so he understood why Zhang Ming and Du Fengchun didn’t trust him. He wasn’t angry but merely smiled gently at Zhang Ming and said, "Don’t worry, Brother Zhang!"
Zhang Ming stared intently at Xiao Yifei and, finally, let out a heavy sigh and said to Xiao Yifei, "I believe in you!"
When Du Fengchun saw Zhang Ming’s actions, he slapped his thigh forcefully and exclaimed angrily, "Madness! I think you’ve all gone mad! Especially Zhang Ming! Have you lost your mind? Fine! Since you’ve given up on yourself! I won’t be involved in your matters anymore!"
In short, Du Fengchun didn’t have a shred of trust in Xiao Yifei, and he now harbored some resentment towards the young man who might ruin Zhang Ming.
"If the person you found can’t cure the illness, wouldn’t that mean you’ve completely blocked your last chance to clear your name!" Du Fengchun said to Zhang Ming with a pessimistic look.
