Chapter 1063: A Tense Confrontation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Han Shi felt a newfound respect for his father-in-law, Chu Yi. Despite his refined and scholarly demeanor, Chu Yi possessed a resolve as steely as Qin Xi’s when circ.u.mstances demanded.
Of course, Qin Xi’s fierce nature was selective, reserved only for those who truly deserved her wrath.
As Han Shi approached, Ma Lianping, already in agony, let out a blood-curdling scream. The pain was so intense that he trembled violently, his face paling to an almost transparent hue.
In his heart, Ma Lianping swore he had never felt this terrified…
“Second Master, second…
Ma Lianping’s face was filled with pain. Seeing that Han Shi, this demon, was still approaching him, he retreated in fear. Even though his arms and legs were broken, he still squirmed like a maggot. “Don’t, don’t come over…”
“Second Master, I want to live. I want to live. Let me go. Please let me go…’
He exerted all his strength and shouted with all his might. After shouting, he panted heavily, as if he had just run a marathon.
“If you want to live, tell me why you betrayed me back then.”
Chu Yi had never understood this matter. It could be said that he was never harsh to his subordinates and even treated them as brothers. Otherwise, he would not have been deceived so badly.
“We didn’t do it on purpose. Back then, Madam Yunqing threatened me with my family, so I had no choice. I really wanted to tell you about this, but that day, I received a warning from Madam Yunqing. One of my son’s hands was chopped off. I was afraid, I didn’t want to…”
Speaking of what happened back then, Ma Lianping felt a wave of regret. If he had told Second Master about this back then, he would not have ended up like this.
But greed had clouded his judgment, leading to his downfall.
“Please, Second Master, I’m willing to return it…” He wanted to say that he was willing to return to the company, but Chu Yi’s words made him fall into despair.
“Not only will the company return it, but all your a.s.sets will also be returned!”
Ma Lianping, reluctant to relinquish what he had acquired, struggled internally? He gritted his teeth and shouted at the top of his lungs, “Captain
Liu, save me. They want to kill me for money. Save me…”
At this moment, a wall in the office suddenly moved. It was a secret door. Four men in uniforms walked out from inside. They had all heard what happened just now, so without needing Ma Lianping to tell them, they looked at Chu Yi and Han Shi.
Seeing them, Ma Lianping immediately cried miserably, “Captain Liu, save me.
Chu Yi wants to kill me. Arrest him.”
Captain Liu, who was in the lead, looked at Chu Yi and Han Shi with a serious expression. “We already heard what happened just now. No matter what, it’s wrong to hurt people. Now, please come back with me to help with the investigation.”
Captain Liu said to his subordinates behind him, “Hurry up and send Boss Ma to the hospital.”
Chu Yi leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and smiled faintly. “This is a personal grudge between him and me. I advise you not to interfere.”
Ma Lianping quickly shook his head and begged, “No, Captain Liu, I have no grudge with him. He’s here to kill me. Look, he broke my arm and leg. Is this considered murder? Don’t let them get away with this. If you do, they might do the same to others…”
Captain Liu sneered. “Whether it’s a personal grudge or not, you have to come with me now.”
As he spoke, he took out a silver bracelet from his pocket and was about to put it on Chu Yi’s wrist…
