Chapter 915 Don’t Fall on a Woman
Pu Xinnan?
Pei Zheng wasn't particularly interested in online gossip and entertainment, nor did he quite understand what the term meant. But looking at Sun Weimeng's expression, he knew it wasn't a good word.
It even contained insults and ridicule.
Sun Weimeng added, "He's so ordinary and so confident. He thinks he can get information out of me, the tight-lipped Young Master Sun. He really underestimates the ability of my number one lackey. I'm almost dying of laughter at his self-righteous cleverness."
Pei Zheng then understood what Pu Xinnan meant.
An ordinary and confident man.
In an instant, his face turned as black as the ash at the bottom of a pot.
Huo Xingzhou's handsome face wore a faint smile as he slowly sat down opposite Pei Zheng and said, "My family members are ignorant. Mr. Pei is so magnanimous, he won't be angry, right?"
Pei Zheng came to the house to gather information, so he could only swallow his anger.
"Boss Huo's people seem to be very good at stirring up trouble. They need to be disciplined. Otherwise, if they fall into the hands of others in the future, they will not only be taught a lesson, but they may also lose their lives."
"Who would let him lose his life? You? In the entire imperial capital, only President Pei would touch my people. What do you think?"
Huo Xingzhou lowered his brows, and although his tone was calm, there was a sense of oppression.
Pei Zheng, unwilling to be outdone, met his gaze, as if looking away would mean admitting his inferiority.
But for a long time.
Pei Zheng took the initiative to speak: "Zhong Lingxiao is in your hands?"
"yes."
"Did you kill him?"
"Does it matter whether he is dead or alive now? Does President Pei want to redeem him? That's not bad, this piece of trash is not worth much, he is only worth the Pei family." Huo Xingzhou said calmly, with the top-grade Keemun black tea brewed by Sun Weimeng himself at hand.
Take a sip and it's quite leisurely.
He leaned back on the sofa, his posture casual.
Pei Zheng felt very upset. If he had cooperated with Huo Xingzhou from the beginning, he would have won the big piece of cake from the Zhong family long ago.
How could I wait until now?
"Zhong Lingxiao is a member of the Zhong family, no matter what. How can you, an outsider, interfere in the Zhong family's affairs? Aren't you afraid that the whole city will spit at you and drown you? How could the old man let you deal with Zhong Lingxiao?"
"Whoever has the power has the final say. He can kill people and get away with it. This is what President Pei taught me. I didn't expect you to have such double standards?"
Huo Xingzhou spoke calmly, yet Pei Zheng was speechless. "What you said just now was to test whether Zhong Yi was still alive, right?"
He is an outsider.
But I don’t like it.
Huo Xingzhou intended to wait for Zhong Yi to wake up and then deal with Zhong Lingxiao personally.
During this period, we just need to keep Zhong Lingxiao alive. As for the injuries to his legs, no one cares how he survives.
"I don't like roundabout temptations. Mr. Pei, just be frank. It's getting dark, and I have to sleep with my wife at that time. Mr. Pei has many women in his family, so I'm afraid he doesn't have this kind of sweet burden."
"you……"
Pei Zheng's face flushed red. It really took a lot of patience to talk to Huo Xingzhou.
"Are you willing to live?"
"have no idea."
"Huo Xingzhou, you just said you would speak frankly, you're kidding me!"
"But I didn't say I have to answer just because you asked." Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "Whether Zhong Yi is dead or alive, the Huo and Pei families will fight to the death. Those bodyguards today are my gift to you. I heard your mother almost called the police to have you jailed?"
When he said this, his expression was mocking, as if he was mocking Pei Zheng.
"What do you mean by sending those people here?" Don't you have any other backup plan?
"It's too expensive to keep them. I'm not interested. They're just small fry, not worth mentioning. But you sent so many people to kill Zhong Yi today, and brought some people to accompany you to the Huo family. How many people are left at home?"
Pei Zheng's hair stood on end.
There's no one at home!
Because he had sent some of his men to the airport to secretly pick up the illegitimate child, Pei Zheng planned to raise the son born by Zhao Zhenmei well. He didn't have time to wait for the arrival of a new baby.
The Pei family cannot wait that long and needs fresh blood to appear in the imperial capital to share some of the family responsibilities.
Pei Gan is useless!
Mrs. Pei couldn't be saved!
Zhao Yaru can't be counted on even more.
Pei Zheng was the only one left to shoulder the huge Pei family. He hoped that Zhao Zhenmei's son was really as outstanding as she said.
But Huo Sijiao was the first person to know that Pei Zheng and Zhao Zhenmei had an illegitimate child. How could she not tell her own brother about such important news?
Huo Xingzhou was well prepared!
He didn't mean to come so late today.
He set up a scheme called "cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron." He made Pei Zheng think he was trapped, while also gambling that Pei Zheng had no time to pay attention to his own son's situation. He also threw a smokescreen to make Pei Zheng panic.
Pei Zheng thought that Huo Xingzhou was planning to take advantage of the fact that no one was at the Pei family's house to break in and find some evidence of a crime.
There is a lot of confidential information in his study.
"Huo Xingzhou, trespassing is illegal!"
"Breaking the law? So President Pei also knows how to understand the law. How come he didn't remember it when he killed someone?"
"That was led by Zhong Lingxiao! I just helped a little."
"Then I'm not trespassing. I heard that Madam Pei is under house arrest. As a good citizen, I'm going to rescue Madam Pei, who is being held captive by President Pei. President Pei can call the police and see what they say."
Pei Zheng will not call the police.
Because he knew that Zhao Yaru was always looking for an opportunity to take revenge on him!
What she said must be unfavorable to him!
How dare Huo Xingzhou!
How dare he be so ruthless and act so arrogantly!
Pei Zheng immediately stood up and wanted to go back!
"Boss Pei, take care!"
Huo Xingzhou said this without any sincerity.
Sun Weimeng's laughter became even more frantic. "Does he look like he's on fire? His home is about to be destroyed! Your smokescreen made him forget about his son, but judging by his panicked look, I'm sure he has a lot of goodies hidden in his house."
"Those things will naturally be dealt with by someone after the Pei family is defeated."
Huo Xingzhou said slowly, "Let's detain that illegitimate child first."
The Pei family's reputation has been completely ruined, and its stock price has fallen significantly recently. But Pei Zheng still has a lot of assets. As the second-largest family in the imperial capital, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, so he still has some foundation.
"What else do you need me to do next? I want to help out as well."
"There's nothing for you to do. Just deal with your own emotional issues. Don't let them get you down on a woman..."
This was Huo Xingzhou's advice to Sun Weimeng.
"Oh." Sun Weimeng felt a little embarrassed.
Xia Sisi had called him quite a few times today, but he hadn't answered any of them. Feeling a bit uneasy, he wanted to ask her why she was calling.
Huo Xingzhou didn't say much, stood up and walked towards the stairs.
Sun Weimeng could vaguely hear him instructing Xiaoyuan to prepare a midnight snack.
He felt a little complicated, and finally took out his cell phone to check the seven missed calls.
