Xia Zhidong walked back to the bridge tunnel with heavy steps, holding the drugs he got from Ning Chuxia tightly in his hand.
His heart was full of struggle and pain, but he finally made up his mind.
He put the drug into his parents' water cups, watched them drink it without any precautions, and then gradually lost consciousness.
Looking at his parents lying on the ground, Xia Zhidong felt a complex emotion in his heart.
He hated their ignorance and extravagance, because they pushed their lives into the abyss.
One of them only knew how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and was not responsible for the family at all; the other blindly gave money away without ever considering the future of the family.
Their behavior made Xia Zhidong extremely angry and disappointed, and he believed that they should atone for their mistakes.
"So they deserve to die the most!" A hint of cruelty flashed in Xia Zhidong's eyes, and his dissatisfaction and resentment towards his parents reached its peak at this moment.
Under Ning Chuxia's guidance, he boarded a ship with his parents who were still in a coma.
The sea breeze was howling, and the ship was swaying in the rough sea, just like his wavering heart at the moment.
On the ship, Xia Zhidong was forced to sign various contracts that seemed complicated but were actually cruel.
He felt heavy-hearted, but when he thought of the three million he was about to get, he felt that it was all worth it.
For him, the three million was not just a huge sum of money, but also a chance for him to turn his life around, his hope to break away from the past and start anew.
Finally, he got the three million as he wished.
The heavy cash in his hand made him dazed for a moment, as if he saw his bright future.
However, he did not use the money to live a stable life as many people imagined.
On the contrary, an unprecedented confidence and ambition surged in his heart.
Xia Zhidong felt that he could win more with his own abilities.
In his opinion, relying on oneself means going to the casino to show off one's skills and win more wealth in one fell swoop.
After all, he could win hundreds of thousands with such a small amount of money before, so what about three million this time?
Seeing Xia Zhidong about to leave, Ning Chuxia felt an inexplicable worry in her heart.
She wanted to remind him to be careful and not let greed cloud his mind.
However, before she could finish her words, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck, her vision went black, and she lost consciousness. It turned out that Song Jiao had attacked her from behind and knocked her unconscious.
When Ning Chuxia opened her eyes again, she found herself in the police station.
She was surrounded by cold walls and the glaring light from the incandescent lamp above her head made her feel dizzy.
She tried to struggle to her feet, but found herself firmly bound to the chair.
The police told her seriously that she had become a major suspect in an organ trafficking case.
They had solid evidence accusing her of being the middleman in this nefarious scheme.
Ning Chuxia struggled in fear and repeatedly denied the accusations.
She shouted loudly that she did not do these things, and the real mastermind behind them was He Sihui!
However, the police produced a video evidence, which showed Ning Chuxia buying drugs.
There is also another video showing how she coaxed Xia Zhidong into selling things.
Faced with these hard evidences, Ning Chuxia was stunned and her face turned pale in an instant.
"No, that's not the case!" she argued eagerly. "I didn't do any of this voluntarily. It was all arranged by He Sihui! I was forced to do it. Please believe me!"
The police turned a deaf ear to her excuses. "Everything is right in front of us, and you're still trying to argue? Take him away!"
They announced indifferently, pulled Ning Chuxia up from the chair, and prepared to take her to the detention center.
Song Jiao looked at Ning Chuxia being taken away on the system screen, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. The next one should be Xia Zhidong.
Xia Zhidong stepped into the casino with full confidence, carrying the three million he had just earned.
He sat in his familiar seat and was relatively cautious in the beginning, betting hundreds or even hundreds of thousands each time.
However, the goddess of luck did not seem to favor him and he lost miserably.
Xia Zhidong was unwilling to accept this, thinking that his bet must be too small and not enough to attract the attention of the goddess of luck.
So, he gritted his teeth, bet all his remaining money, and decided to make the final gamble.
Unfortunately, the imagined good luck did not come as expected.
In just half an hour, he had lost all his three million. Xia Zhidong couldn't accept this reality and started making a scene in the casino.
"You casino guys are cheating!" he roared. "I've played so many times and never won once! Pay up! Pay up!"
His noise quickly attracted the attention of security guards, who quickly subdued him and brought him to Song Jiao.
The moment Xia Zhidong saw Song Jiao, an inexplicable fear and anger surged in his heart.
He finally understood that all this was Song Jiao's conspiracy.
"He Sihui!" he roared, "You vicious woman! Did you do all this? I'm going to kill you!"
Song Jiao just looked at him with a playful smile, "So what if it is? So what if it isn't? Does it matter? What matters is that you are penniless and have nothing now, isn't it?"
Xia Zhidong was deeply hurt by her words, and he felt extremely desperate and helpless. However, Song Jiao did not let him go.
She signaled her men to lower a curtain, and a hot news appeared on the curtain - a son was selling his parents' organs.
The video clearly records Xia Zhidong signing a contract with the human traffickers and receiving the money.
This scene made Xia Zhidong completely collapse. He couldn't believe his eyes.
He once thought that he had won the money with his own ability, but he didn't expect that all this was Song Jiao's conspiracy and calculation.
Xia Zhidong felt extremely angry. He hated himself for being so stupid and falling into Song Jiao's trap.
The comments section was filled with sharp daggers, piercing Xia Zhidong's heart. Netizens angrily accused him of shamelessly scheming against the woman's family before, and now of betraying his own parents for money. Every comment seemed to challenge his conscience, leaving him with no escape.
"Get out of here! I don't want to look! I don't want to look!" Xia Zhidong waved his arms like crazy, trying to block the curtain that exposed his crimes.
However, the light from the projector always enveloped him, leaving him nowhere to hide.
In sharp contrast to this is Song Jiao's brilliant smile.
She looked at Xia Zhidong's ugly appearance and found it a little bit good-looking.
She slowly walked up to Xia Zhidong and whispered, "Even so, your parents forgave you before they died. Don't worry, I will arrange for the best lawyer to save you from the death penalty. After all, it would be too easy for someone like you to die. You should live under endless online violence; that's the best punishment for you!"
