He Zhong turned his head and saw Mo Huaixing, who should have been dead. Then he turned back and saw Lu Zhengqian, who was hidden behind the huge Azure Dragon Screen, cold as ice.
"B-brother, big-brother..." Years of natural aura dominance had suppressed him. The previously aggressive He Zhong stammered, "Why are you here?"
"Am I not on my way?" Lu Zhengqian stepped out from behind the screen, sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and waited for him to speak.
"Big brother, I, I..." He Zhong stammered for a long time before kneeling down with a thud. "Big brother, I just want to earn more money. I have no other thoughts."
Lu Zhengqian began pouring tea, cup after cup. The only sound in the room was the running water.
"Amo, get a stool for Fourth Master."
"yes!"
Before carrying the stool, Mo Huaixing searched He Zhong thoroughly to make sure he was alright before he dared to carry it.
The room fell into a long silence once again.
Half an hour later, Ali dragged his injured body in, cursing and swearing, "Damn it, they really went all out, both cars exploded on the spot."
The teacup in Lu Zhengqian's hand shattered instantly. "What else do you have to say?"
He was waiting, waiting to see if He Zhong would really crash into his car, but unexpectedly, what he got was the result he least wanted to see.
"Big brother, big brother..." He Zhong trembled with fear, "It was all Fu Cheng's doing, I don't know anything about it."
At this moment, Fu Cheng walked in and gave He Zhong a cold glance.
"Godfather, we can't use knives or guns on the highway. Yu Dayong ran away. Two of the drivers died, and we brought two back. Our people were all replaced at the accident scene; they've already gone with the police, so there won't be any problems."
As Fu Cheng spoke, he glanced at He Zhong and said, "I'm sorry, Fourth Uncle. Both of your men have confessed that your order was to have your eldest brother die a horrible death."
Lu Zhengqian sighed: "Ah Zhong, I have never treated you badly."
He Zhong despised Fu Yuanshan's hypocrisy in trying to appear righteous even after killing him, as if everyone else had wronged him. He hardened his heart and angrily said, "The victor is king, the loser is villain. What's there to say? Kill me if you want."
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out, and glass flew everywhere. Mo Huaixing leaped in front of Lu Zhengqian to shield him, while He Zhong pushed over the bookshelf and jumped out of the window.
The study was on the second floor, with a river flowing into the courtyard below. He Zhong fell into the river and was never found again.
"Godfather, you go first."
The gunshot will definitely attract the police. Fu Cheng said, looking at Mo Huaixing, "You handle things in Qinglong Bay, I'll go after them."
Lu Zhengqian emphasized: "Acheng, I want him alive."
Everyone went downstairs.
Mo Huaixing quickly walked to Fu Cheng's side and reminded him, "Brother, it's inconvenient for you to go, so I'll go instead."
At the entrance, Gan Tang led Jin Hu through the door and bumped into the two of them. She said urgently, "Big brother, Lin Shuang is missing."
"Tang'er, who sent you here?" Lu Zhengqian roared.
Gan Tang hurriedly abandoned the two and ran towards Lu Zhengqian. When she turned around, Fu Cheng had already disappeared.
"Mr. Fu!" Mo Huaixing wanted to follow.
Watching Fu Cheng drive away, Lu Zhengqian asked, "Do you know where He Zhong will run off to?"
Mo Huaixing truthfully replied, "Whether we go south or west, there's a chance to survive, but he won't allow himself to lose everything. Tonight, we have a cargo ship that has passed through customs, and Dr. An is on board."
Lu Zhengqian was very satisfied with his analysis: "Let's go to the port."
He couldn't wait any longer.
Gan Tang grabbed Lu Zhengqian's arm, "Dad, I'll go with you."
"No, that's too dangerous."
Gan Tang's attitude was firm: "I am your daughter, why should I be afraid of these things?"
As the group arrived at the port, the cargo ship gradually sailed away. Zhou Shan, covered in blood, ran over in a lifeboat, shouting, "Big Brother, Big Brother has been captured by Fourth Master!"
"Ah Cheng was captured by him?" If he said there were some concerns and he didn't capture him, Lu Zhengqian would believe it, but he really didn't believe that Fu Cheng was captured by He Zhong.
Zhou Shan nodded, "Originally, my elder brother was about to capture Fourth Master, but suddenly Fourth Master threw out a poppy flower, and my elder brother went mad. Then, Fourth Master kidnapped my elder brother and put him on the ship."
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Lu Zhengqian found it ridiculous and, watching the cargo ship sail further and further away, he angrily said, "Bring the cruise ship over here."
Ali reminded him, "Mr. Fu, our cruise ship has not been registered and cannot go to sea."
Mo Huaixing asked Zhou Shan, "What's the situation on the ship?"
“There were 20 crew members on the cargo ship, and Fourth Master brought about 40 people,” Zhou Shan said, looking at the remaining people around him, and added, “16 of our people were detained.”
Mo Huaixing glanced at Zhou Shan's arm and then looked at the person behind Gan Tang, "Jin Hu, come with me."
Lu Zhengqian warned, "Amo, there are too many of them, it's too dangerous."
“Mr. Fu, it’s alright,” Mo Huaixing explained. “We’re still near the coast, and He Zhong doesn’t dare to fire. I’ll sneak up there; there’ll be a chance.”
Lu Zhengqian looked at Ali and said, "Take a few people and go with Amo."
But those lifeboats could only seat a total of ten people.
Mo Huaixing said, "Mr. Fu, having too many people will only attract more attention."
Gan Tang grabbed his arm anxiously, "You can't go by yourself."
Lu Zhengqian pulled his daughter's hand away and waved for Mo Huaixing to leave.
Zhou Shan hurriedly followed the two onto the lifeboat. "I escaped back here. It's perfect to go back in the lifeboat."
Watching the lifeboat sail away, Lu Zhengqian couldn't contain his excitement and instructed Ali, "Find another lifeboat."
"yes!"
Not far away were cargo ships that did not sail out to sea, and soon Ali drove a lifeboat over. When the lifeboat was halfway there, Mo Huaixing's lifeboat arrived under the cargo ship, and Lu Zhengqian picked up his binoculars to observe.
Fu Cheng was tied to the stern of the cargo ship, watched by two of his men.
Zhou Shan stood on the lifeboat and shouted into a megaphone toward the cargo ship.
Yu Dayong stepped onto the railing and sneered at Zhou Shan: "Little crybaby, what good are you coming along? We'll be in the deep sea soon. Aren't you afraid of feeding the sharks?"
Suddenly, a sound rang out beside him. Yu Dayong turned his head and saw Mo Huaixing take down one of his men. Yu Dayong quickly drew his dagger and rushed towards Mo Huaixing.
