âXiang Jinxi. I will allow you to live for now. I will take away everything you own and destroy everything you care about. You will have nothing left but the rest of your life to regret what you have done!â
Huo Yunting looked down at him and said coldly.
â...â
Xiang Jinxi merely coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Huo Yunting left him and walked to his grandmotherâs boyd. He lifted her up and carried her away.
Huo Zhenning wiped away his tears and slowly got to his feet. He walked slowly, for the drug was still in effect.
Huo Li, the last one remaining, took one look at Xiang Jinxi and pointed at him.
âYou should start looking for your own coffin.â
He then turned to leave, but noticed out of the corner of his eye a mobile phone right beside Qin Anâs body.
He considered briefly before picking it up and pocketing it.
As Xiang Jinxiâs most trusted person, the contents of the manâs phone might be useful to them.
Xiang Jinxi sat up slowly and wiped away the blood on his face.
So you want to take everything away from me?
The war had just begun, there is no clear winner yet!
He would let Huo Yunting realize that not killing him today would be the biggest mistake he had ever made.
...
(Back at the Huo residence.)
Lu Zhaoyang felt uneasy. She and Huo Yunting had only arrived in the capital just a little more than two hours ago.
They had just reached the Huo residence when Huo Zhenning received a call and left the house. Old Mrs Huo followed him as well.
Huo Yunting was worried about his grandmotherâs safety, so he took Huo Li with him to find them.
They were all still not back yet.
Did something happen?
She was pacing anxiously in the living room when the phone rang.
âYes?â
âThings are bad, come to the central hospital, quick!
Lu Zhaoyang had never heard Huo Li spoke so urgently before. It sounded ominous.
âIâll be right there!â
She headed to the hospital straight away and arrived at the morgue as instructed by Huo Li.
When she saw old Mrs Huo lying on the stretcher, she realized immediately what had happened. All her thoughts came to a halt.
She stepped awkwardly into the morgue and saw Huo Yunting standing at the side. Suddenly, she realized that no words of comfort could help him feel better.
âHuo Yunting...â
She paused and hugged him from behind. Tears rolled down her cheeks and dampened his shirt.
Huo Yunting stood there like a lifeless statue as he stared at old Mrs Huo on the stretcher.
âYunting.â
Huo Zhenning came to them and said with bloodshot eyes, âLet your grandmother rest in peace.â
That triggered a reaction in Huo Yunting. The man looked at his father and asked coldly, âWhy did you go to see Xiang Jinxi?â
âI...â
Huo Zhenning lowered his head quietly and did not continue speaking.
âYour idiocy is the cause of grandmaâs death.â
Hui Yunting approached him step by step until his father was backed into a corner. He said in a frostily, âMy mother, Xiang Jinxiâs mother, even Xue Yuming â they all died because of you. How many more deaths will it take for you to realize that you should stop being so foolish and selfish?â
â...â
Huo Zhenning shuddered inside as he started to weep once more.
âStop with your crocodile tears!â Huo Yunting only felt disgust for his teary display. âGrandma has asked me not to blame myself, so I wonât, but I will never, ever forgive you!â
