Qin Zheng's heart was beating wildly and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Master, I'm here mainly to send the young lady back to Hong Kong."
"It's not to attend Mr. Huo's funeral."
"If you have any grievances, I can go back to the mainland now and never come to Hong Kong Island again in my life."
Qin Zheng pretended to be calm and spoke word by word, each sentence containing a deep chill.
Sending the eldest lady back to Hong Kong means that he is still Huo Jingmo's subordinate and obeys his orders.
Not attending Huo Zhenchuan's funeral means that he does not covet Huo Zhenchuan's inheritance.
Never coming to Hong Kong Island in his life means that he will not recognize his ancestral roots and will not compete with Huo Jingmo for anything.
He had to come here to tell Huo Jingmo his true feelings. Otherwise, with Huo Jingmo's suspicious nature, he would definitely hire someone to go inland and kill him and...his family.
He wanted to use his own life to exchange for the safety of Jingrou and the children.
After Qin Zheng finished speaking, he waited for a moment, but the gun barrel against his head did not move an inch.
Qin Zheng knew that Huo Jingmo was not going to let him go.
With trembling hands, he took out a cigarette, slowly put it to his lips and lit it.
He took a deep breath and exhaled a light blue smoke.
"Master, if someone must die today, please spare my family." He said in despair.
Huo Jingmo sneered as if he had heard a funny joke and asked him, "Why do you ask me for that?"
Qin Zheng's hand trembled, and the cigarette fell on his leg, burning a hole in his pants.
"Just because I'm your deceased brother, okay?" His voice was almost pleading.
His family is his weak spot. If Huo Jingmo asked him to kneel down and lick his shoes at this moment, Qin Zheng would do it without hesitation.
Behind him, there was a long silence.
The driver suddenly ran over and whispered something in Huo Jingmo's ear.
Huo Jingmo's eyes moistened. "The forensic doctor said that Yaoyao really died of a heart attack? Wasn't she murdered?"
The driver nodded: "Yes, Master."
Huo Jingmo's tears rolled down, but he didn't intend to wipe them away. He raised his hand and threw a small brown bottle to Qin Zheng.
"Eat it," he said.
Qin Zheng's heart tightened.
Is it poison?
"This drug takes effect very quickly. As long as you swallow it within ten seconds, I promise not to touch your family."
"nineteen……"
Huo Jingmo began to count down.
Qin Zheng opened the medicine bottle without hesitation, poured out the small white pills inside, and swallowed them in one gulp without even looking at them.
The gun barrel that was against the back of his head finally fell.
Huo Jingmo laughed heartily: "I have to say, being your family is really a blessing."
Qin Zheng looked up and saw Huo Jingmo's arrogant and grumpy face in the rearview mirror.
A sudden pain in his stomach made him curl up involuntarily and collapse on the control panel in agony...
