Chapter 221 It's not working down there anymore.
“Son, Su Xi was kidnapped to the desert and eventually died from quicksand. Did you do it? You must tell the truth.”
Looking at the old man's bitter and resentful appearance, Huo Qianfan found it utterly ridiculous.
“Tell the truth, what do I have to hold back now? I sent people to carry out the kidnapping, but those useless people got caught. Su Xi is just getting her comeuppance and was swallowed up by quicksand. This has nothing to do with me.”
"How can it be nothing?" Mr. Huo stomped his feet and clapped his hands in anger. Only a president's spoiled son could turn a dignified CEO into a shrew.
Mother Huo was also pale. She instantly understood the implications, but her precious son still had those innocent, foolish eyes wide open. Was she really giving birth to a fool? What sins had she committed?
With trembling lips, Huo's mother said, "Son, who is Feng Jue? He will definitely trace it back to you, and he might already be doing so now."
"You only released poisonous snakes and you've become like this. If you had killed his woman, you would have died a horrible death. The entire Huo family, and us all, would be finished."
Huo Qianfan didn't care. "So what? I'm already living a life worse than death. If he gives me a quick death, I might even be grateful to him."
"You scoundrel! You've dragged our parents into this mess, don't you feel even a little bit guilty?"
"Why should I feel guilty? You failed to protect your son, you are useless, and now you have the nerve to talk back to me? If it were any other parent, they would have cut Feng Jue in two without hesitation. You are just cowards. I must have been incredibly unlucky to have parents like you."
Mr. Huo's vision went black for a moment, and he almost fainted from anger. Mrs. Huo gently patted him back to calm him down.
With a hard-won breath, Mr. Huo regained his usual decisive and ruthless CEO demeanor. "Huo Qianfan, things have come to this point. We have no choice but to sever our father-son and mother-son relationship with you. Only in this way might Feng Jue give the Huo family a way out."
"What do you mean? Are you going to abandon me? Don't try to scare me, I'm not falling for that. You're too old to have children. No one will carry on your family line except me."
Hearing this, Huo's mother looked heartbroken. She tugged at her husband, telling him not to say anything.
Mr. Huo spoke in a cold voice, "The doctor said that your lower body is also impaired."
"What's the meaning?"
Huo Qianfan, a spoiled young master, naturally understood the meaning of those words, but he absolutely refused to believe it was true. Wasn't this a joke? There must be some other meaning behind it.
The nurse next to him couldn't take it anymore and said, "Does that mean you can't have any more children or harm women anymore?"
Huo Qianfan's eyes widened suddenly, and after a long while, he let out a shrill, ghostly sound.
"What? How could this be? It can't be. Who is trying to harm me? You? Bai Luwei? Feng Jue? Ah—ah—ah—"
The hysterical screams almost shattered the roof and nearly blew the tops of the elderly couple's heads off.
The doctor could only come over and give Huo Qianfan a sedative injection.
Seeing their son asleep, the elderly couple helped each other out and slumped down in the corridor.
After much discussion, they reluctantly made a decision. Once Huo Qianfan was feeling better, they would put aside their own family ties and personally send their son to prison.
They had no other choice. If they didn't do this, the Huo family would be completely finished.
The snake venom in their son's body hasn't been completely cleared, and a large sum of money will be needed later. If the Huo family goes bankrupt, their son won't live much longer either. On the contrary, sending their son to prison ensures that the Huo family can still provide for him comfortably and happily for the rest of his life after his release.
After agreeing on the outcome, Mr. Huo got up to call Feng Jue. Feng Jue didn't answer; Liu Cheng answered instead.
Mr. Huo meant that he had no idea what his son had done, but now that he had guessed, he planned to sever ties with this rebellious son and personally send him to prison. He hoped that President Feng would show leniency.
Liu Cheng said he would pass on the message and then hung up the phone.
They had done what they were supposed to do; all that remained was to anxiously await their fate. They had no idea how Feng Jue would ultimately deal with them.
Gu Chong went to prison, while Su Zi'an was released. Upon learning of Su Xi's death, he couldn't believe it was true, and tears streamed down his face.
"What bad luck. Couldn't she have gotten the 30 billion before she died? Now that she's dead, the 30 billion is gone."
Huang Sifeng wished she could pull Su Xi out of the coffin and question her about why she died at such an inopportune time.
She was just a few days away from dying, why did she suddenly die? The duck that was almost in her mouth flew away. She was unwilling to accept it.
"That good-for-nothing Su Xi accomplished nothing, even her death was pathetic, she..."
Snap!
Su Zi'an, unable to bear it any longer, slapped her. "Have you said enough? The person is already dead. I advise you to watch your mouth, lest a ghost knocks on your door in the middle of the night."
"She dares. I'm not afraid of being alive, and I'm even less afraid of being dead. If she dares to come looking for me, I'll make sure that coward dies again."
Su Zi'an, don't be heartless. If I hadn't run around trying to get you out, you'd still be picking up soap in prison right now.
"My 30 billion was wiped out by Su Xi's death, can't I even vent a little? Humph, which is more important, your wife or your niece? How can you be so biased? My life is so miserable, waaaaah..."
The woman's crying annoyed him, so Su Zi'an simply got up and left. Out of sight, out of mind.
Qiushui Villa.
Wu Yaoyao had already stepped into the mental hospital with one foot in it when the Mo family finally arrived and told her that she was the Mo family's daughter. The servants quickly untied her.
A tremendous surprise struck, leaving Wu Yaoyao stunned for a long time, oscillating between madness and sanity. Finally, her eyes slowly cleared.
Between madness and sanity, she chose to be lucidly insane.
The former Wu Yaoyao is dead; the current one is Niohuru Moyao.
Behind them stood the Mo family members, dressed in suits and ties. The wealth and influence of the imperial families in the capital were truly extraordinary; even the servants exuded the air of their masters, inspiring awe and fear in anyone who looked at them.
Liu Yufeng hid behind Feng Qinyue, keeping her eyes down and trying her best to minimize her presence.
Wu Yaoyao walked over slowly and, without saying a word, slapped Feng Qinyue across the face.
Feng Qinyue was utterly stunned. No one had ever dared to lay a finger on her since she was a child. And how could she dare hit Wu Yaoyao, whom she had treated so well?
Without even thinking, Feng Qinyue instinctively slapped him back.
Caught off guard, Wu Yaoyao staggered a step after being hit, her wound was aggravated, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth in pain.
The Mo family members quickly stepped forward to help her up.
"Feng Qinyue, how dare you hit me?"
Liu Yufeng quickly grabbed Feng Qinyue's hand, "Yaoyao, she didn't do it on purpose, it must have been a conditioned reflex."
Since the fight had already begun, Feng Qinyue glared at the ungrateful woman, her neck stiff. "I can hit her whenever I want, why do I have to make a big fuss about it? Wu Yaoyao, I've always taken such good care of you and stood up for you, and now that you've risen to power, you turn your back on me. You're utterly despicable. Aren't you, the Mo family, afraid that she'll stab us in the back if you accept a daughter like this?"
Liu Yufeng hurriedly covered her daughter's mouth, saying anxiously, "Qinyue, say less. She's your sister-in-law, it's only right that she hits you."
"Mom, what are you saying? Su Xi used to be my sister-in-law, why didn't you say such things then? Are you just being a sycophant? I don't believe the Mo family are stupid enough to treat such an ungrateful woman like a treasure."
"I'm ungrateful? A woman like you, who sees other people's good things like a dog seeing a bone, would be mistaken for a beggar under a bridge if you didn't know better."
You've taken everything good from me, and you think you're my benefactor just because you said a few insignificant words for me? I'm not that idiot Su Xi.
You're good to me? When your brother gets angry, don't you immediately turn into a coward, wishing you could push me out as a sacrifice? I don't believe you don't know about what happened last night. I'm asking you, where did you hide then?
"Isn't this for my own good? Then why don't you experience the pain of circumcision with me?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Qinyue was so frightened that she backed away repeatedly, "You dare! I won't!"
Wu Yaoyao approached step by step, her eyes fierce, like a demon crawling out of hell.
Feng Qinyue was terrified, her eyes wide with horror. "No, I don't want to be circumcised! Help! Someone, help me!"
Wu Yaoyao grabbed her hair and slapped her face several more times.
Liu Yufeng tried to break up the fight, but when she caught a glimpse of the godlike Mo family members out of the corner of her eye, she withdrew her hand halfway through its reach.
Feng Qinyue then realized what her mother meant when she said Wu Yaoyao was crazy. A crazy woman would do anything.
She didn't dare to resist at all, covering her face and repeatedly wailing and begging for mercy.
"Kneel down, kneel down and maybe I'll spare you."
Feng Qinyue knelt down with a thud.
Wu Yaoyao felt deflated, then suddenly looked at Liu Yufeng, whose smile was more like a grimace. "Yaoyao, we're family after all. My grandson is still in your belly. For the sake of the child, please let Qinyue go, okay?"
"Child? What child? This child is no longer worthy of my status. I will abort it once I arrive at the Mo family."
"What? Say that again?"
"Abort it."
Liu Yufeng felt as if a large chunk of her heart had been ripped out. "Wu Yaoyao, what right do you have to abort my grandson?"
*Slap!* Wu Yaoyao slapped the woman across the face. “Whatever I like. Whatever I want.”
Liu Yufeng was stunned by the slap. She was the mother-in-law. In all of five thousand years of history, she had never seen a daughter-in-law hit her mother-in-law.
Without even having time to think, Liu Yufeng instinctively slapped him across the face.
A sharp "snap" brought her back to her senses, but it was too late.
Wu Yaoyao's head was turned to one side after being hit, her face twisted and ferocious. "You old bastard, how dare you hit me?"
Liu Yufeng was so frightened that she backed away repeatedly. "No, no, I was just reacting instinctively. Yaoyao, you hit your mother-in-law first, you were the one who tried to abort my grandson."
Wu Yaoyao had already raised her hand high.
"Wu Yaoyao, how dare you!"
"I'm not Wu Yaoyao, I'm Mo Yaoyao. I'm beating you as the daughter of the Mo family, so you'd better take it."
Wu Yaoyao grabbed the woman's hair and started hitting her face with both hands.
The sound of slaps echoed in the living room. The Feng family's servants cowered like quails, trembling like leaves.
Liu Yufeng, who had always been pampered, had never suffered like this before. Her cheeks quickly swelled up.
Wu Yaoyao was still unwilling to accept it. Thinking of that hateful woman, who had watched helplessly as her son disregarded human life and did not save her last night, she wished she could kill her.
Wu Yaoyao only let go after beating the woman until her head was swollen like a pig's.
Liu Yufeng's head was ringing with pain, and she felt as if her brain had been blown out. She slid onto the carpet and couldn't stand up.
But she still pleaded, "Yaoyao, you've vented your anger. You can't abort my grandson. He's your child too."
Wu Yaoyao sneered repeatedly, "You're so worried about this child, your eyes are like a chicken's. I just hope you don't end up slapping yourself to death in frustration."
What do you mean by that?
Liu Yufeng's eyes widened suddenly, a bad premonition flashing through her mind.
