Chapter 201: Chapter 201 - Two Years Ago

Seeing that he had already broken through Zhang Meng’s defense, Zhou Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “You’re right. I’m indeed here to take revenge on you, but I’m here on behalf of my boss. He’s Ms. Zhang’s real son. But the only undeniable thing is…

You have a human life on your hands.”

His words seemed to have shattered Zhang Meng’s last hope. He staggered and fell to the ground. Then he broke down and said, “I, I didn’t know that that woman would die. I thought she would make it to the hospital. Yes, it was the master who told me to do this. I just needed to stall for five minutes. Once the time was up, I rushed to the hospital. But, but she had stopped breathing!”

Zhou Feng was furious when he heard this. He grabbed Zhang Meng by the collar and said angrily, “You didn’t know? I think you just don’t want to think about it! How important these five minutes are to a dying person! Even an idiot knows! Two years have passed and you’re still finding excuses for yourself!”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “Let me tell you! Even if the Tang family didn’t pay to hire you back then, if someone had offered the same price, you would have chosen the same path! You’re a murderer! In your eyes, human lives can be measured by money! Do you still think you were forced?!”

The hallway fell silent.

Zhang Meng’s eyes gradually reddened. His body trembled as he said, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I was wrong. I shouldn’t have killed anyone. I can give all the money to your boss.”

“What’s the use of paying?! Ms. Zhang can’t come back anymore!”

Zhou Feng rolled his eyes in anger and said, “Ever since you killed her with your own hands, you shouldn’t have lived! You had no enmity with Madam Zhang, so why did you listen to the Tang family’s orders and cause her death?! If you really want to repent, tell me everything that happened back then!”

Repent?

Yes!

He wanted to repent! Only then could he be forgiven by the victim!

Zhang Meng’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Two years ago, I was inexplicably called to the old residence by the butler. At that time, I was very puzzled as to why the family head was looking for me. Other than driving, I usually stayed at home to rest. Who knew that I would be warmly received by the old master the moment I arrived?

He served tea and water and greeted me affectionately. My mind was never clear from the start. After all, no one could maintain their rationality when the head of the Tang family treated them like this.”

Although two years had passed, he still remembered what happened that day.

Old Master looked at him expectantly and said, “Zhang Meng, you’ve been with me for more than ten years, right? I remember when you first came to the Tang family, you were so cautious and inexperienced. Time really flies. The people who followed me back then have all become senior executives now. Will you be envious?”

Why wouldn’t I be? Zhang Meng thought.

This was not just a day or two. The colleague he knew when he joined the company was promoted to manager of the main company last year!

However, Zhang Meng knew that he was just a junior driver who did not know much. Moreover, he had an elementary school diploma. It was already a blessing to be able to work at the Tang family! So he did not dare to think too much.

“Old Master, I know my place very well.” Tang Boyan nodded in satisfaction. He had chosen this person to be his driver because he was honest. When he thought of his next plan, he felt that it was appropriate to hand it over to him.

“Although you haven’t contributed much to the Tang family all these years, I think it’s time to give you a raise. But before that, I hope you can help me do something. After that, you can go anywhere you want. Even overseas, I can help you settle the green card matter.”

No matter how stupid Zhang Meng was, he could tell that there was something wrong with his words. Is he firing me? he thought.

Before he could think too much, Tang Boyan continued, “I’ve checked. Lu Yaohua’s ex-wife will be passing away in a few days. I’ve already settled with the hospital. Now I want you to become an ambulance driver. When you meet that woman, you just have to stall for five minutes.”

Zhang Meng’s expression changed drastically. Third Miss’s husband had been married previously and had a son. It was not like he had not heard of this before, but now he was asked to kill someone?

“… Can’t you hand this matter to someone else? If outsiders find out, won’t I go to jail?”

“I only trust you because you’re my most trusted subordinate.”

Tang Boyan patted him on the shoulder and said, “Even if you really go to jail, with the Tang family’s power, we can successfully bail you out. As long as you stall for five minutes, I’ll give you enough money to live the rest of your life. From now on, you don’t have to work or worry about your livelihood. How about that?”

A huge temptation was laid bare in front of him. To a lowly person like Zhang Meng, there was no resistance at all.

So he agreed in a daze.
