Chapter 3907: Su Yu, I’m Back (17)
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
After Huo Yanyan was dragged into the boat, the monitoring was cut off.
Half an hour later, Shen Mingxi got a secret call.
“Mr. Shen, it’s done. She’s dead.”
“Did you see it with your own eyes?” Shen Mingxi knew Huo Yanyan was sly.
“Yes. The rock tied to her body weighs dozens of pounds and she can’t float up. It’ll take about two years for the rope to rot and release the rock. By then, her body would be in sharks’ bellies.”
“Good.” Shen Mingxi ended the call and left with his subordinates.
Before he left, he glanced at the tape with the surveillance video and said, “Put on gloves and pack it; mail it to Gao Ran of the munic.i.p.al public security bureau. Don’t leave any fingerprints.”
“Yes, sir.”
Shen Mingxi mailed the video to Gao Ran just to tell him that Huo Yanyan had been killed.
The gangster Bao would be imprisoned for the murder; after all, he deserved it.
Shen Mingxi’s plan achieved two, no, three goals.
Because Bao’s subordinates revealed the goods in Xu Shu’s warehouse, Gao Ran could crack the case quickly.
After he eliminated two gangs and intercepted the illegal goods, his superior was very pleased and alleviated the pressure on him due to Zeng Rou’s disappearance.
By now, Huo Yanyan’s absurd life finally came to an end.
The Huo Family was wiped out officially since Huo Mian wasn’t related to them by blood and Huo Siqian had been adopted.
The only fish escaping the net was Bao’s subordinate Qiang.
For some reason, the guy fled out of the country with 10 million yuan in his bank account just before the public security bureau began arresting the gangsters.
If he didn’t return to the country, no one would know that the drama was staged by Mr. Shen to get rid of Huo Yanyan.
When he returned to his house that night, Shen Mingxi was in a dark mood.
Although he didn’t kill Huo Yanyan personally, he had set the trap.
To make them fight each other, he had bought out Qiang and implicated the big gang leaders, Bao and Xu Shu.
Huo Yanyan had died and her body couldn’t be recovered.
Doing such a thing for the first time in his life and the target was the woman who had once shared his bed, Shen Mingxi felt low in spirits.
“Sir, do you want a night meal?”
Hearing the door open, the housemaid walked over and asked in a low voice.
“I’m not hungry. You can retire for the night,” Shen Mingxi said, spiritless.
Glancing at his watch, he saw it was half past one in the morning, one and a half hours after Huo Yanyan sank to the bottom of the ocean.
Shen Mingxi took off his coat and entered his study on the second floor. He poured himself a gla.s.s of wine and began to drink.
The memories about Huo Yanyan flashed across his mind like a movie.
If Huo Yanyan hadn’t been so vicious with her behavior, he might have married her.
Did Shen Mingxi love Huo Yanyan? The answer was that he had loved her.
Unlike Qin Chu and Su Yu, he didn’t focus his love on one woman.
He was an ordinary man who would love another woman and forget his ex, a mistake that most men would make.
“Help me… Help me…”
Huo Yanyan’s last shrill screams flashed in his mind repeatedly.
He put down the gla.s.s and held his head in guilt. Tonight, he killed a person; a woman he had loved.
“Uncle Shen.” A child’s voice at the door pulled him back to reality.
