The door opened, and Mo Huaixing stood behind it, his eyes cold as frost, as still as a dry well.
“Yi’er…” Sheng Weide rose to his feet, his voice trembling, and reached out to touch the real person.
Mo Huaixing turned his head away, giving a self-deprecating sneer: "I really have never seen you so happy before."
At that moment, Sheng Weide finally realized what he had said and staggered backward.
Lu Zhengqian walked over, patted Mo Huaixing's shoulder lightly, and laughed heartily: "Thank you so much, Brother Sheng, for raising my son. He's so brave and strong, and you've taught him so many skills. If he had followed me back then, I don't know if he would still be alive today. Son, hurry up and thank your Uncle Sheng."
Sheng Weide angrily punched Lu Zhengqian, but Mo Huaixing blocked it. He stared in astonishment at the son he had raised for thirty years, and then slapped him across the face in anger.
The resounding slap was deafening, shaking one's heart and lungs.
"Yi'er, come on, let's go home with Daddy." Sheng Weide finally panicked and pulled Mo Huaixing away.
Mo Huaixing followed him out of the tea room, shook off his hand, and asked with a smile, "I'm still alive, aren't you disappointed?"
"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting?" Sheng Weide slapped him again in anger.
"I never understood why you always hit me, but now I finally do." Mo Huaixing laughed: "Will you still hit me? If not, I'm leaving."
Seeing his trembling hand raised but unable to fall, Mo Huaixing turned and walked away.
Lu Zhengqian stepped forward, proudly boasting, "So what if you raised him for thirty years? He has my blood in his veins. Sheng Weide, you lost thirty years ago, and you still lost completely thirty years later. Oh dear, your son is just a pile of bones and yellow earth, while my son is in a police uniform. Just thinking about it makes me feel good."
Mo Huaixing visibly swayed as he reached the entrance.
As Sheng Weide watched his son walk away, he suddenly ripped open his coat and strapped the same explosives he had used thirty years ago to his body. This time, he came with the resolve to die.
Sheng Weide grabbed Lu Zhengqian with one hand and pulled the fuse with the other.
Ali reacted quickly, grabbing Lu Zhengqian and kicking Sheng Weide off the railing. They were on the second-floor corridor, with a pool of water in the center below.
Seeing the splashing water, Lu Zhengqian said urgently, "Quick, don't let him die here."
The death of a deputy captain in Qinglong Bay is no small matter and cannot go uninvestigated.
Ali jumped down the stairs and, sure enough, saw Sheng Weide pull out a knife from the pool.
Ten miles outside Qinglong Bay, in a roadside park, a black car was parked. A soaking wet figure was thrown out of the car. Sheng Weide walked along the cobblestone path. The path wasn't difficult, but he staggered along, muttering, "My son, my son..."
That lonely figure swept past one roadside tree after another, his once black hair turning white in an instant.
...
In the spacious open space adjacent to the secret room, Mo Huaixing and Fu Yuanshan sat facing each other, with a chessboard between them. The board was full of pieces, mostly red, but the powerful rooks, knights, and cannons were two more blue pieces.
“Sometimes, being too soft-hearted can turn your own pieces into obstacles.” Fu Yuanshan stepped his horse forward and smiled, “Checkmate.”
With so many pieces clustered in the grid, his general had nowhere to move.
“But being too ruthless will inevitably lead to isolation and helplessness.” Mo Huaixing struggled through the obstacles, moved the car to the center line, and said calmly, “You lost.”
The car and the handsome guy in the corner blocked all of Blue General's escape routes.
Fu Yuanshan laughed heartily and shouted to He Zhong, who was locked in the secret room, "Fourth brother, you are indeed my son, so clever."
He Zhong stood behind the narrow window and hummed in agreement.
Fu Yuanshan looked at Mo Huaixing again and finally spoke: "Stay by your father's side from now on, and your father will not mistreat you."
"Won't you treat me unfairly?" Mo Huaixing sneered: "Like your son who lost an arm, or like your brother who was locked up here forever, or like them who became your lackeys?"
"From now on, the entire Lu Group will be yours. Don't you like Tang'er? I'll throw you a grand wedding right away. Whatever you want, I can give you!"
Mo Huaixing said calmly, "I want you dead."
Fu Yuanshan slammed his fist on the chessboard, suppressing his anger, and said, "Over the years, what kind of nonsense have Sheng Weide and Chen Jianfeng taught you? Look at them, aren't they all hypocrites? Your father loves you, do you have to make your loved ones suffer and your enemies rejoice? Your mother is watching from heaven, she will be heartbroken."
As he spoke, Fu Yuanshan's voice choked with emotion.
Mo Huaixing looked away with disdain. "Stop acting. You want to acknowledge me just to show off how great and successful you are in front of Sheng Weide, and then enjoy the thrill of your revenge."
Fu Yuanshan retorted, "Can't you see how good I've been to Tang'er these past two years?"
Mo Huaixing was no longer willing to waste words with him and said directly, "If you let Gan Tang go, I will stay."
Fu Yuanshan remained silent.
"Don't dare?" Mo Huaixing said disdainfully. "You dare to say the word 'love'?"
Lu Zhengqian stood up angrily.
He Zhong reminded him, "Brother, how can you be so confused at a time like this? Haven't you realized that if it weren't for that girl Gan Tang, he wouldn't have said a word to you at all."
Lu Zhengqian said helplessly, "Ali, bring the person up."
He didn't want to use such methods to threaten his son. He wanted him to stay by his side willingly. But now, he could only point at Gan Tang, who was being held down, and threaten, "There are so many men here. If you don't want to marry Tang'er, I'll make her marry someone else."
"Disgusting!" Mo Huaixing retorted angrily, "Do you dare? The ledger is still in her hands."
He Zhong spoke up again, "Brother, why don't we try our newly developed drug on this girl?"
Once Gan Tang has taken the drugs, she won't be able to get any information out of him. As for Mo Huaixing, seeing his beloved girl in so much pain, how could he possibly disobey?
Gan Tang and Mo Huaixing looked at Lu Zhengqian in shock. Even Fu Cheng, who was standing to the side, frowned almost imperceptibly.
Lu Zhengqian glanced at Mo Huaixing and adopted He Zhong's suggestion.
A small, transparent red drug, about the size of a pill, appeared in front of Gan Tang. She was being held down by two men and couldn't break free. Lu Zhengqian picked up a pill and pried open Gan Tang's mouth.
"You dare!"
At that moment, Ali and Fu Cheng held down Mo Huaixing's arms, and Mo Huaixing kicked the chessboard onto Ali's head. Fu Cheng then released his grip on Ali.
Mo Huaixing stepped forward, kicked away the person restraining Gan Tang, and pulled her into his arms. At the same time, Ali pressed a gun against Mo Huaixing's head.
"Shoot!" Mo Huaixing roared.
"You've already lost." Lu Zhengqian slapped Mo Huaixing across the face, bluntly reminding him, "If you weren't my son, you would have been dead long ago."
