Kill?
Huo Beichen’s eyes were seething with a murderous aura. If he could kill her, he would have killed her long ago!
Many years ago, he had told Ning Meng that they should not stick with this woman. Unfortunately, Ning Meng was stubborn and had a mind of her own. She not only brought her to stay with them at the villa, she had even allowed Xiao Tiantian to get close to her. She had relentlessly showered the girl with unconditional care and love.
During this time, Ning Ke had secretly tried to get his attention in every way possible. He felt that something was amiss. Ning Ke had even told him behind Ning Meng’s back that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. When he told Ning Meng about this, Ning Meng only smiled like a silly person and advised him not to love himself too much…
Moreover…
Eight years ago, the last thing she had told him was “promise me that you will take care of Ke Ke.”
Ning Ke had gone overseas on her own accord and had not bothered him all these years. They both led peaceful lives. Who would have thought that she would turn out to be such a cruel, sick person!
Could he truly refrain from killing her? What if Qi Shan had actually eaten the wrong food? How could he make it up to Qi Shan?
Huo Beichen gave his instructions to Fei Bai. “Let Su Ye handle her.”
“… Yes, sir.” Fei Bai was slightly disappointed.
After he had hung up, Huo Beichen closed his eyes. He had asked Su Ye to handle Ning Ke ever since Ning Ke had come back to the country. For all these things to have happened, it meant that Su Ye was not capable enough to stop them from occurring. The best choice now was to ask him to dispose of her.
Su Ye’s heart was heavy as well. On one hand, his brother was in danger, but on the other hand, he was blaming himself for his negligence. His voice was filled with frustration. “I’ll lock her up at my place first. If Qi Shan really loses his manhood, I will definitely get rid of her!”
“Mm.”
Huo Beichen agreed.
If the person who had been poisoned was him, he could have forgiven her. However, since it was not him, he could not let her go. He had no right to let her off just like that. When it was time to get off work, Huo Beichen pushed open his office door and was faced with Qi Shan, whose whole face was wet with tears. “Boss, I’ve really lost it, huhuhu…”
“… How did you figure that out?”
Qi Shan looked around his surroundings and lowered his voice. “I just went to watch a movie, and I felt nothing. Huhuhu…”
“…”
He felt that Qi Shan was probably alright and that he must just be scaring himself. Hence, he patted Qi Shan’s shoulders and walked past him. When he arrived at the elevator, he turned to look at the latter. “Shall I send you home?”
He would not be able to drive home in this current state. Still, Qi Shan waved. “No need. I’ll call for a taxi.”
***
When Qi Shan went downstairs, he hailed a taxi. After getting into the car, he went on a rampage, sending voice notes to Su Ye.
“I’ve really lost it! Su Ye, help me think of a way out! I’m the last seedling of the family! What am I supposed to do without a future generation?! Huhuhu!”
“And then there’s Zhen Shanmei. If I really lose my manhood, she will definitely break up with me!”
“You’re not allowed to tell anyone about this. I refuse to lose my reputation!”
“Su Ye, I’m telling you. I don’t want to live anymore!!”
“If you’re not going to heal me, I’ll kill myself in front of you!”
After he had sent all those voice notes, the driver had arrived at his place. Just as Qi Shan was about to get out of the car, he asked, “How much?”
“No need.”
Qi Shan lifted his head and saw that the driver’s eyes were filled with pity. Sensitive little Qi Shan got down from the car and was about to head inside his house when he realized that he had left his keys in the car. He gave chase to the taxi which was just about to leave. “Sir, my keys are in your car!”
He did not expect that when he called out, the driver would aggressively step on the gas and accelerate. After he had driven for quite some distance, the driver sighed in relief.
“Since you’re going to die soon, I refuse to let you die in my car!”
