Chapter 317 This kind of person must not be kept
Jiang Ning looked at the man in front of her in disbelief. She had thought that someone would betray her, but she could never imagine that it would be this person.
"Is it really you..." Jiang Ning asked.
The man on the ground had already been tortured to the point of being covered in wounds and no longer looked like a human being, but Jiang Ning could still recognize him at a glance. It was that man, the man in his memory.
If he didn't say anything, Jiang Ning's men would use violence against him.
"We asked him to ask you. We've given you face, but you still dare not say anything? You're really asking for death!"
Fists rained down on the man, making his already weak body even more miserable.
He spat out blood continuously, and the blood dripped onto his body and flowed down his already tattered clothes. The scene was so horrific that it would be an understatement.
But he still had no intention of opening his mouth, as if his mouth was sealed. He would rather die than tell the truth.
Jiang Ning thought of the scene a long time ago when he accompanied her through life and death, and she was still shocked. She had never thought that he was in this state today because of her men.
In the end, she couldn't bear to see him become like this, so she decided to give him a chance to live again.
She said with a trembling voice:
"If you can reveal the mastermind behind this, I can choose to give you a chance and forgive you. The decision of whether to live or die is yours. It depends on your choice."
Jiang Ning sat on the chair in the middle, with a tall and strong bodyguard standing on each side.
When she looked at him, she was expectant, because she really couldn't bear to put such a once loyal person to death.
The person on the ground moved his mouth, but there was no other reaction, and his face looked hopeless.
He raised his head with difficulty and looked at Jiang Ning, with a hint of despair in his eyes.
He opened his cracked lips and uttered a hoarse voice: "I...can't say..."
Jiang Ning felt a sharp pain in her heart. She couldn't understand why he was so determined.
"Even if you don't tell me, I can find it out. But if you tell me now, I can make you suffer less." Jiang Ning tried to persuade him, but in fact, she had long since stopped thinking this way.
Since he chooses to trust others, such a person must not be allowed to stay.
The man coughed violently, and every cough seemed to be about to cause blood to ooze out from the corners of his mouth, like strange red flowers blooming on his pale cheeks.
He raised his head with difficulty, his eyes revealing despair and helplessness.
"I told you... it's a dead end... you won't let go... the mastermind behind this..."
The man's voice was intermittent, like fragments blown away by the wind, making it difficult to hear clearly.
But Jiang Ning heard it clearly, every sound and every word, like a knife, piercing deeply into her heart. She squinted her eyes tightly, her gaze as sharp as a knife, staring at the weak man in front of her.
"Who are you protecting?" Jiang Ning's tone was cold and firm, with an unquestionable majesty.
She knew that the man in front of her must know many secrets, but he insisted on hiding them. There must be a huge conspiracy behind this.
Faced with Jiang Ning's questioning, the man still chose to remain silent, as if this would be able to resolve the current predicament. But it was obvious that this way of thinking would never work for Jiang Ning.
He lowered his head silently, as if trying to shrink himself into the endless darkness.
However, Jiang Ning did not give him a chance to escape.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm her anger.
Because she knew that in this situation, forcing the other party would only make them grit their teeth even more.
So she decided to try a different approach.
"Well, since you won't tell me, don't blame me for being ruthless. Take him away and keep him under good care."
When saying this, Jiang Ning deliberately prolonged the tone of the last few words and cast a meaningful look to the people around him.
Those people immediately understood what he meant and walked forward to drag the man away.
Watching the man's back gradually walking away, Jiang Ning felt a complex emotion in his heart.
She didn't know what this man was guarding, but she could feel that the battle had just begun.
The room suddenly became quiet, with only Jiang Ning and her bodyguards left.
They stood there quietly, the atmosphere so heavy that it seemed to overwhelm everything.
"Investigate all of this man's background and find out who is behind this. This kind of person is not worth having, and the person behind him is even more dangerous. If I allow this kind of person to continue to exist around me, I'm afraid I will be the one kneeling on the ground today." She said coldly.
Jiang Ning made up her mind that she would not let such a thing happen again, especially to her and to the person she trusted the most.
"Yes, Miss, we will definitely do what you told us to do, please rest assured."
The bodyguard beside her nodded and stepped back, leaving her some space to be alone.
