Chapter 1885: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (89)
Huo Heng was driving down the slope, and it was dangerous for the brakes to fail.
What happened four years ago was happening to him once again.
Huo Heng held the steering wheel tightly with both hands. His long and narrow amorous eyes revealed a trace of maliciousness.
If they wanted him to die again, they had to see if they were capable enough to do so.
The slope became steeper and steeper. On both sides of the road, there was a steep hillside. If one fell down, they would be smashed to pieces.
Huo Heng’s slender hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. Suddenly, he turned the steering wheel.
The car rushed toward the hillside outside the protective fence.
The MPV behind Huo Heng didn’t move as fast as Huo Heng’s car.
When he caught up, he saw Huo Heng’s car speeding away like an arrow leaving the bow.
The MPV slammed on the brakes and stopped.
The man in black walked to the broken fence and looked at Huo Heng’s sports car. After it rolled down the hill, there was an explosion.
The man in black took out his phone and took a video.
The car exploded into flames.
The man in black sent the video to Huo Jie.
Huo Jie quickly replied to the man in black: Wait for me there.
Half an hour later, Huo Jie arrived at the scene of the accident.
Huo Heng’s car had been burnt to ashes.
Although they didn’t manage to reach the place where the car was burnt, Huo Heng must have been burnt to death.
The corners of Huo Jie’s lips curled up into a cold smile. His eyes were vicious as he said, “Don’t blame me for being heartless. You’re the same as Huo Ze back then. If you get in my way, you’ll only end up dead!”
Huo Jie smiled and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
In the dark, there seemed to be a pair of sinister eyes staring at him.
Huo Jie quickly looked around.
Suddenly, a tall figure jumped up from the slope.
Huo Heng put away the rope in his hand. His eyes were sharp and his body carried a chilling coldness.
When the person walked closer, Huo Jie saw that handsome face and his eyes widened.
H-how… could it be Huo Heng?
He had someone tamper with his car, so how could he still be alive?
Huo Heng walked up to Huo Jie and grabbed his collar.
Huo Jie kept retreating until his body was pressed against the car.
When the man in black saw that Huo Jie was being held down by Huo Heng, he wanted to go up and deal with Huo Heng. Suddenly, an ear-piercing whistle came from not far away.
A few black cars sped over.
The car door opened and Jian Ming came over with a group of elite bodyguards.
They soon surrounded the man in black.
Huo Jie thought that Huo Heng had been burnt to death, so he had come alone.
He had never thought that Huo Heng would still be alive. Not only that, but he had also set up an ambush here.
In other words, he knew that his men had tampered with the car and deliberately lured them here?
Huo Jie clenched his fists and swung them at Huo Heng’s face.
Huo Heng grabbed Huo Jie’s fist with his large palm and slowly exerted his strength. Huo Jie was not as strong as him and had no choice but to retract his hand.
As soon as he retracted her hand, Huo Heng’s knee struck his abdomen.
Huo Jie bent over in pain and held his abdomen.
She glared at Huo Heng with red eyes. “You’re just a young master from the branch family. If you dare to hurt me, Fourth Master will not let you off!”
Huo Heng didn’t seem to hear Huo Jie’s words as he took out a dagger.
The sharp blade glinted coldly.
Huo Heng narrowed his eyes. “You were the one who arranged for Huo Ze’s death back then.”
Huo Heng said affirmatively.
Huo Jie did not expect Huo Heng to suddenly mention Huo Ze. His pupils constricted. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Huo Heng took out a recording pen and said, “I recorded what you said earlier.”
Huo Jie’s expression changed. “You know Huo Ze?”
“Of course. He’s my idol.”
“Idol? Stop joking…” Before Huo Jie could finish, he saw Huo Heng’s cold gaze and couldn’t help but s.h.i.+ver.
For a moment, he realized that the way Huo Heng looked at him was no different from Huo Ze.
In the past, Huo Jie had been a little afraid of Huo Ze.
“You tampered with Huo Ze’s car and put carcinogens in his cigarette. How could you be so insane—”
Before Huo Heng could finish speaking, Huo Jie interrupted him with a frown. “What did you say? Cancer? I’ve never heard of it!”
“You don’t want to admit it? Fine, your men have been captured by my men. Even if you don’t admit it, he will.”
As Huo Heng spoke, he took out a medicine bottle from his pocket and pinched Huo Jie’s chin. Ignoring his struggles, he poured the medicine into his throat.
“Huo Heng, what did you feed me?”
Huo Heng let go of Huo Jie and smiled meaningfully. “In a minute, your stomach will start to hurt. After 24 hours, your organs will…”
Huo Jie clenched his fists and wanted to punch Huo Heng’s face, but his stomach hurt so much that he couldn’t exert any strength.
“Huo Heng, take out the d.a.m.n antidote!” Huo Jie squatted on the ground in pain.
Huo Heng walked up to Huo Jie and looked down at him. “You’re about to die, yet you’re still unwilling to tell the truth?”
“What truth? I admit that I was the one who caused Huo Ze’s accident, but I don’t know about the carcinogens you mentioned!”
Huo Heng squatted down and grabbed Huo Jie’s collar with both hands. “Did Fourth Master Huo instigate you?”
Huo Jie avoided eye contact. “It’s not Fourth Brother’s fault.”
“Tell me the truth. Do you want to die now?”
Huo Jie looked at Huo Heng’s h.e.l.lish eyes and his body trembled. “Who exactly are you?”
“You don’t have to care who I am. Tell me everything you know and I’ll spare your life.”
Huo Jie endured the pain in his stomach and said with a pale face, “I was the one who wanted you to die. As for Huo Ze, he was originally a rich young master who didn’t care about anything. He could live a peaceful life, but who knew that he would suddenly be interested in the family business? He even did well and made Old Master admire him. He blocked the way of others, so naturally, he could only be a short-lived ghost!”
Huo Jie did not directly admit that Fourth Master Huo wanted to do something to Huo Ze, but Huo Heng already knew.
Without Fourth Uncle’s nod, how would Huo Jie have the guts to take his life?
However, Huo Jie refused to admit that he had tampered with his cigarette. Could it be someone else from the Huo family?
Huo Heng didn’t say anything else. He left after giving Jian Ming some instructions.
Seeing that Huo Heng did not give him the antidote, Huo Jie shouted, “Antidote! I’ve said everything. Where’s the antidote?”
“Go to the prison and ask for the antidote!”
“Huo Heng, are you kidding me—”
“You already tried to take our Young Master’s life. Do you expect us to pretend that nothing happened?”
When Huo Jie was taken away, his mind was in a mess.
He couldn’t understand why he had run into Huo Heng recently. It was as if he had run into a G.o.d of plague!
