Petrovna was stunned. She didn't expect that Li Xiao would expose her so directly. This was not good news at all. If the other party lost patience, she would be doomed.
She suddenly became anxious and hurriedly explained: "You... please listen to my explanation... I didn't... that's not what I meant, I was..."
However, Li Xiao stretched out his index finger to press her lips, and lectured mercilessly: "I'm not interested in what you say, do you think you can hide your true relationship with Grand Duke Constantine with this little trick?
ridiculous!"
Petrovna didn't dare to express her anger. She just looked at Li Xiao blankly. She didn't know what Li Xiao meant when he said this. She always felt that as long as she didn't take the initiative to speak, there would be no way to implicate Grand Duke Constantine.
Li Xiao said sarcastically without mercy: "How do you think we caught you? Do you think you hid very secretly? Do you think we don't know how you hooked up with Viscount Prozolov? Do you think we didn't?"
Do you know what you are planning?"
This series of questions directly confused Petrovna, because she was really confused about how she was arrested. Logically speaking, Grand Duke Constantine, Viscount Prozolov and Ravel knew his hiding place.
There is no way these three people would betray her, so she shouldn't be caught!
But the truth is that Hong Guoguo is a slap in the face. If those three people didn't betray her, how did she get imprisoned in this ghost place?
Of course, Petrovna didn't suspect that she had been betrayed, but simply couldn't figure out why. Now that Li Xiao had brought it up, she had a vague suspicion that her hiding place was not as secret as she thought.
, it is very likely that she has been targeted!
This thought immediately made her break into a cold sweat, because she knew very well what it meant. If she had entered the other party's sight long ago, it would mean that her every move, and even the actions of Grand Duke Constantine and Viscount Prozolov,
Every move is completely under the control of the other party!
That feeling of powerlessness came to Petrovna's heart again. She stared at Li Xiao blankly, her mind a mess.
After a long time, she took a deep breath and asked: "Since you know everything, why bother a weak woman like me?"
Li Xiao was a little impressed by her. From this sentence, it could be seen that even though this woman was in a state of confusion, her thinking rarely remained logical. It was obvious that she had realized her own value.
"Do you need a reason to embarrass you?" Li Xiao said cruelly, "Maybe I am cruel by nature and I just like to torture people?"
Although Petrovna did not say anything immediately, it was easy to see from her expression that she did not believe the answer.
However, Li Xiao didn't intend to use this lame excuse to fool her, and then said: "Of course, it may be that you still have a little bit of use value, and it would be a pity to kill you directly!"
Petrovna breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that her guess was right. The other party still felt that she was valuable and planned to use her to achieve a certain purpose. As for what purpose, she couldn't guess. However,
She knew that this purpose might not be so fair, and might even be filled with despicable calculations and dirty conspiracies.
It’s just that Petrovna doesn’t actually care about these people. This is not the first time she has dealt with these high-ranking people. She has long known what kind of personality these guys have. If they are really as upright as they appear on the surface, then what can Russia be like?
What a ghost?
What's more, it is extremely important for Petrovna to do whatever it takes to survive or even keep her chance to climb up. If the conditions given by the other party are suitable, she will not mind selling herself a better price.
Li Xiao smiled and said: "It seems that you have figured it out, but I still have to say some things first, otherwise you may not know what you will face next!"
Petrovna waited patiently to hear what was going on, while Li Xiao said slowly: "Generally speaking, there is only one result for problems of this nature like yours, and that is to be given up, even if you bite Shuva desperately.
Love, if you put all the main responsibility on him, your results will not be good, and you will most likely be deprived of your noble honor and reputation and then be exiled to Siberia."
Li Xiao looked at Petrovna and continued with a cruel smile: "I think you should know what that means. The best outcome is to spend the rest of your life in poverty. But I think the more likely outcome is
You will become the plaything of those exiles, lingering like the meanest female cousin until you contract some indescribable disease and die miserably on the spot!"
Every time Li Xiao said something, Petrovna's face became uglier, because she knew that Li Xiao was right. If no one saves her, the possibility of the following result is quite high, and she really doesn't want to be like that.
It looks like she wouldn't even want to be a social butterfly even if she is already a perfect social butterfly!
Seeing that she had listened, Li Xiao chuckled and said: "Of course, I guess you are still hoping that Grand Duke Constantine or Viscount Prozolov will come to rescue you. I can only say that I am very naive, childish and even very naive."
ridiculous!"
Petrovna looked at Li Xiao calmly. She did have such luck, so she wanted to hear what Li Xiao thought of this problem.
"Do you think you are valuable?"
But what Petrovna didn't expect was that Li Xiao asked her a question instead of answering directly.
Am I valuable?
Petrovna recited it silently in her mind, and soon realized what Li Xiao really wanted to remind her.
She knew very well the nature of her relationship with Grand Duke Constantine and Viscount Prozolov. To put it bluntly, it was a pure interest relationship in which each got what he needed. Once her value in this relationship ceased to exist,
There is only one result, and that is to be abandoned!
Suddenly, Petrovna felt a chill in her heart. She immediately realized that she was useless to Grand Duke Constantine and Viscount Prozolov. It would be a pity not to save her because of her existence value, but she really made great efforts to rescue her.
Not cost-effective!
Li Xiao looked at Petrovna whose expression changed drastically and said with a smile: "Very good, you have realized your biggest crisis. Then let me ask you another question, what do you think about Grand Duke Constantine or that Prozolov?"
Will the Viscount abandon you?"
Petrovna was immediately confused. To be honest, she had no confidence in Grand Duke Constantine and Viscount Prozolov. She had seen too many intrigues in the officialdom, and of course she knew who the people in that circle were.
How to treat worthless "friends" or partners? She didn't think those two would transcend the traditions of that circle at all...
