Chapter 712 Unexpected Changes
Jiang Ruan frowned slightly.
But his gaze remained fixed on Huo Zhizhou on the screen.
“He’s in my hands now. It’s just a matter of saying the word to kill him,” Huo Sinian asked, pointing his phone at Huo Zhizhou. “I’m asking you this specifically because you had a relationship with him.”
Jiang Ruan: "What did you ask me?"
Huo Sinian: "Do you want him to live?"
Jiang Ruan: "?"
"You have two choices now. If you choose to live, then stay with him." Huo Sinian's words were simple and blunt. "If you don't want to stay with him, then I'll send him down."
If Jiang Ruan was very worried just now, she has now regained her composure.
Huo Sinian wasn't a good person, but he didn't deserve to take Huo Zhizhou's life.
She remained calm: "I'm not in the mood to play this boring game with you. How you treat him is your business. I have something to do, so I'm hanging up now."
"Do you think I'm playing a game with you?" Huo Sinian asked.
Jiang Ruan didn't say anything.
What else could it be but a game?
Even if Huo Sinian had no intention of killing Huo Zhizhou, the residence was surrounded by Huo Zhizhou's bodyguards, and Jiang Yulin, Lin Bei, Lin Feng, and others were also inside the villa, so Huo Sinian would have no chance of succeeding.
Or perhaps this is a cruel game played by Hossian.
Or perhaps this is a staged performance orchestrated by everyone.
Regardless of which one.
Huo Zhizhou is unlikely to be in any danger.
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now," she said casually.
“Since you think this is all an act, then I’ll add some twists to it.” Huo Sinian gestured to one of the bodyguards as he spoke. “If you still don’t believe me, then Zhizhou will have to say goodbye to this world.”
The words had barely left his mouth.
One of the bodyguards supporting Huo Zhizhou pulled out a knife from his pocket and stabbed Huo Zhizhou!
The whole process was swift and efficient, taking less than three seconds.
Before Jiang Ruan could react, she heard Jiang Yu and Lin Bei's voices coming from the other end of the video call.
"BOSS!"
"Huo Sinian, what are you doing!"
Then, Jiang Yu and Lin Bei appeared on the screen.
They rushed towards Huo Zhizhou in a panic, but were stopped by Huo Sinian's bodyguards before they even reached him.
The scene descended into chaos.
The two sides started fighting.
In the chaos, Jiang Ruan saw blood flowing from the stab wound on Huo Zhizhou, staining his white shirt red. At that moment, her hands and feet turned cold, but she calmly turned on her phone to record the screen, trying to record everything as evidence of Huo Sinian's crime.
Before she could even act, Huo Sinian's men took Huo Zhizhou to the other side of the cliff and threw her off without hesitation.
"BOSS!"
Jiang Yu's terrified voice came through.
The call was immediately disconnected.
Jiang Ruan's head buzzed, and she dialed the number back, but no one answered.
She then called Lin Bei and Jiang Yu.
There was still no answer.
At this moment, Jiang Yu and Lin Bei had no time for romance; their minds were filled with the fact that Huo Zhizhou had been stabbed in the back and left out of the plan.
That's a great distance.
There is no possibility of survival.
"Huo Sinian!" Jiang Yu was rarely so angry. He was restrained by Huo Sinian's bodyguards and could not move. His eyes were fixed on the calm and composed man sitting there.
"Instead of yelling at me, why don't you go down and check if your BOSS is still breathing?" Huo Sinian said slowly and calmly.
Jiang Yu felt a chill run through his body: "Why?"
Huo Sinian looked up: "What do you mean, why?"
"Why do I have to do this?" Jiang Yu couldn't understand it, and even now he couldn't figure out a reason why he had to kill the BOSS.
"You can only blame him for being too powerful." Huo Sinian pushed up his glasses, not flustered at all. "As long as he's alive, I'll have to worry about him taking back the power and shares I hold."
"Just because of this?" Jiang Yu stared at him as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.
Huo Sinian was blunt: "That's why."
Jiang struggled, but couldn't break free from their grip: "Aren't you afraid Miss Jiang will retaliate against you?"
“With her current abilities, it’s impossible for her to bring me down,” Huo Sinian replied one by one.
Jiang Yu: "Behind her are the Qin Group and the Li Group."
Huo Sinian: "And then?"
Huo Sinian: "Don't forget that Zhizhou hurt her before. The Li family and the Qin family have a lot of grievances against Zhizhou. They might even applaud his death. How could they possibly help Jiang Ruan deal with me?"
Jiang Yutong's eyes narrowed.
Their initial guess was correct...
It was him...
He trusted this person too much.
Even if this person never had any intention to kill the BOSS, it doesn't mean they don't now.
"Release them." Huo Sinian winked at his bodyguard. "Let's go."
"Won't there be any hidden dangers if we release them?" Secretary Ye asked, looking at Jiang Yu and Lin Bei.
"What hidden danger?" Huo Sinian asked in return. "They brought the person here, they administered the drug, we just happened to run into them while we were here to enjoy the scenery."
These words were spoken.
Lin Bei was furious: "Huo Sinian! You beast! You're not human!"
Huo Sinian's lips curled into a smile, his whole demeanor exuding refinement: "Aren't you the ones who aren't human? Zhi Zhou was so good to you, yet you sent him to the edge of a knife."
After saying that, he ignored their stares and got into the car with his men and drove away.
"I'll kill you!" Lin Bei raised his foot and charged forward.
Jiang Yu stopped him: "Don't be impulsive."
Lin Bei's eyes were red and swollen: "What are you doing! He's ruined the BOSS!"
"The most urgent thing is to find the BOSS as soon as possible." Jiang Yu's voice was low and hoarse, his whole body heavy. "What if he's alright? What if he's still breathing..."
As he spoke, Jiang Yu's voice grew softer and softer.
They all knew it was impossible.
Falling off such a high cliff is practically the same as dying, even if you don't die.
“Yes!” Lin Bei tried to remain calm. “I called the people down the mountain and asked them to go look for it.”
Jiang Yu: "Okay."
Lin Bei immediately made a phone call.
Jiang Yu also made arrangements.
Regardless of the outcome for the BOSS, he would not let Huo Sinian off the hook.
Legally speaking, it is difficult to find any evidence against Huo Sinian.
Just like he said, they did everything.
But that doesn't mean they won't avenge the BOSS.
Send people from here to deal with him; that should be enough.
"Buzz buzz buzz".
Their phones rang again.
Lin Bei picked up the phone and saw that it was Jiang Ruan calling. At that moment, he suddenly felt very helpless.
He handed the phone to Jiang Yu, his eyes filled with worry: "What should we do?"
The original intention was to matchmake Miss Jiang with the BOSS.
Now look what's happened.
They even killed the BOSS.
"I won't accept it for now," Jiang Yu decided. "We'll talk about it after we find the BOSS."
"If the BOSS..." Lin Bei didn't finish his sentence, he couldn't bear to say what came next, "How are we going to explain this to Miss Jiang and the young master? The young master is looking forward to going out with the BOSS tomorrow."
Jiang Yudun stopped.
My hands and feet felt as heavy as lead.
After a while.
He spoke in a low, hoarse voice: "We'll talk about everything after we find the boss. If the boss is alright, just say he suddenly had to go on a business trip. If..."
The rest of the words got stuck in my throat, neither coming out nor coming down.
