Chapter 359 I can help you, but you have to work for me
Virgilia didn't expect that she would suddenly ask her a question. She was stunned for a few seconds, then nodded slowly, concealing her true purpose, not wanting to involve irrelevant people.
She was already very grateful that Ji Cheng was willing to help her avoid the bodyguards.
"Yes, my name is Virgilia..."
Sera knew her situation very well, but she didn't expose her. As long as she didn't cause any harm to the young lady, she wouldn't care even if the other party made trouble for her.
Ji Cheng noticed her nervousness and resistance, and smiled and comforted her in a slow and steady voice.
"Don't worry, I mean no harm to you."
"I'm just curious about your experience. You don't look like you're here to attend the auction... Instead, you seem to be avoiding someone. Can you tell me about it?"
When Ji Cheng mentioned this, the expression on Virgilia's face became noticeably anxious, nervous and uneasy, and her tense mood became even more difficult to contain.
"sorry, I--"
The sound of knocking on the door interrupted Virginia's next words. The knocking sound was like a signal, causing Virginia to stand up immediately and hide in the corner, fearing that the person who pushed the door open would discover her presence.
"Miss Ji, are you available? I'd like to bother you for a moment."
The manager who was knocking on the door had the brightest smile on his face and his voice was extremely gentle, not daring to sound threatening.
He was actually the owner of this box, the person whom even the big boss had repeatedly asked to provide his best service. He heard that he was the new head of the Horton family.
What happened to Wyatt seemed to be still fresh in his mind, with some cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
Ji Cheng looked at Virgilia hiding in the corner, looking at her pitifully with a pleading expression on his face.
"inconvenient."
A cold female voice came from the box. The manager wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, smiled and led his people away, not daring to say anything more.
The thin man following behind him looked a little dissatisfied, "Why don't you go in?"
But the manager seemed to have reserved his good temper for Miss Ji in the room. When he heard the thin man's questioning, a look of dissatisfaction spread across his face.
"Sir, I will cooperate with you, but I hope you can also cooperate with me. There are some people you can never afford to offend in your life..."
The manager stared at him for a few seconds with a dissatisfied look, then turned around and took him to the next place.
The thin man didn't dare to say anything more. There was some anger in his heart, but he didn't dare to say much. After all, this was John's family's territory.
The big shot already knew about Virgilia's escape and gave him a death order to find her, otherwise he would be in trouble.
But he still became suspicious of Miss Ji who was in the box just now, but he didn't dare to break in. Judging from the manager's conversation and behavior, the identity of this Miss Ji must be no simple one.
Even if he was unwilling, he had to leave. After all, he couldn't afford to offend the big shots.
The footsteps outside the box faded away and the room returned to silence. Virgilia slowly relaxed as she listened to the crowd going away.
“Don’t worry, they’ve already left, and no one will come in without my permission.
Can you tell me now?"
Ji Cheng's gentle and soft voice sounded, surrounding Virginia, as if it brought some magical power to make her extremely restless mood strangely calm down.
Virgilia sat back in her previous seat, pinching her fingers nervously and saying her name in a trembling voice.
"Virgilia, my name is Virgilia."
"There's nothing special to say. It's just that our family's business was not doing well. My father wanted to send me to marry a man who was more than ten years older than me. I disagreed, so he locked me up. I took this opportunity to escape, and they sent people to capture me and take me back. That's it..."
"I didn't mean to barge in. I'm sorry, but I really can't help it..."
"Thank you for helping me, but I really have nothing to give back to you."
"If I can escape, I will definitely help you if you need anything..."
This sentence seemed like her beautiful extravagant wish. She didn't think she could really escape. All she did was just a futile effort to catch the moon in the water.
That man won't let her go, and neither will her father.
Her life was ruined by these two men. She didn't want this to happen. She tried her best to resist, but all she got in return was house arrest and beatings.
Only pain could make her feel that she was a living person, not a puppet controlled by strings.
Virginia said a lot in one breath. The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. Her eyes became a little red, but she still managed to hold back her tears and didn't let them stay.
Although Virgilia said it easily, Ji Cheng saw through the specific information from 886 that her father not only put her under house arrest, but also beat her more than once.
Oh my god, what kind of forced marriage and overnight escape is this? I am really shocked.
It's a different century now, and there's still this kind of thing. I don't understand.
Not only that, Virginia has a very high level of education and is a graduate of the top university in Country K.
No, my friend, what would Lao Deng think if he let her get married with such a good seedling?
"Virgilia...what a nice name." Ji Cheng looked at the woman in front of her with a soothing smile on her face. After praising her a few times, she asked again.
"If you could escape, what would you do?"
Virginie didn't expect that she would talk to herself about this, it was just her extravagant hope, but she still answered Ji Cheng's question seriously, with some yearning in her eyes.
"I might end up working for a financial company. It doesn't matter what I do. What matters is that I want to escape from them and this hell..."
Ji Cheng nodded in agreement, thinking that her idea was correct. To climb out of the quagmire, one must embrace a new life. Such a beautiful idea should certainly be supported.
How could a graduate from a top university in Country K be buried like this? Why not quickly recruit such a good talent into their company?
If it’s any later, the day lily will be cold. I really want to ask the zombies to pry open Lao Deng’s brain to see if it’s empty or has water in it.
Sera listened in silence, her eyes no longer having the oppressive, fierce look she had just had.
"I can help you, but will you work for me?"
——The Little Theatre of Thoughts
Virginia T^T: I finally waited for you, I'm glad I didn't give up~~
Ji Cheng (knocking his head): Is Lao Deng’s brain empty?
Thin man: Ah? Me?
