Le Zhengyi never imagined that not long ago, Huangfu Shang, who had pledged alliance with him and formed a community of interests, would, in such a short time, see him as a discarded pawn and disappear without a word.
At this moment, he was still in the villa at Zhongjing Haoting, anxious and unable to sleep at night.
He smoked one cigarette after another, his mind in turmoil, constantly sighing.
Jiang Feng's strength was far beyond his imagination. If he had known, he would never have been so blinded by greed and chosen to go against Jiang Feng!
Now with a fierce tiger beside him, he felt uneasy all over.
He wanted to reverse his move and call Zhou Rongfa or Jia Youcai, asking them to plead with Jiang Feng on his behalf, to spare him once.
But he was afraid that doing so would mean he was giving himself away?
Jiang Feng might not know yet that the assassin was hired by him. If he confessed, he would expose himself and put himself in even more danger!
Thus, he could only remain in endless inner conflict, feeling vexed.
"It's all that wicked son's fault, always causing trouble for me, leading me from one mistake to another! Placing myself in such a passive position!"
Thinking of his unfilial son, Le Zhengyi felt his anger surge uncontrollably.
Now, Le Zhenglin had been declared beyond help by South City Hospital, and staying in the hospital room was unsafe. So Le Zhengyi had him transferred home for quiet recuperation.
For this, he even hired several doctors to carefully care for Le Zhenglin.
Yet, thinking again of that troublemaking son, Le Zhengyi had no affection left, only gritted his teeth in hatred!
Just as he was brooding over this, suddenly, Le Zhengyi keenly sensed an extremely dangerous and chilling aura behind him. He turned his head abruptly to look!
Then, an unbelievable scene unfolded!
Jiang Feng somehow sat behind him, staring at him expressionlessly.
A scream born from the depths of his bones was about to burst from Le Zhengyi's mouth!
But just as the sound reached his throat, it was forcibly stifled!
It was as if, in the stillness of the late night, an invisible giant hand clenched his throat, preventing any sound from coming out!
After swallowing hard several times, Le Zhengyi forced himself to suppress his fear, pretending to smile casually, "Jiang... Mr. Jiang, why are you here? Why did you come to see me so late at night?"
"Le Zhengyi." Jiang Feng looked at Le Zhengyi calmly, "I thought we were friends."
Le Zhengyi was startled by his words!
From Jiang Feng's words, he instantly understood that Jiang Feng might already know everything and had come tonight to settle accounts!
But he still chose to play dumb, cautiously smiling and saying, "Mr. Jiang, what are you talking about? We are indeed friends!"
"I disabled your son, and it served him right."
Jiang Feng seemed not to hear Le Zhengyi's words, continuing as if speaking to himself, "In the bar, he conspired with some scum to drug my friend, intending to assault her. I acted only after witnessing this with my own eyes to lend a hand."
"But instead of learning a lesson, he escalated, wanting to stab me. Do you think I would allow him to act recklessly?"
Le Zhengyi was stunned, deliberately pretending to be outraged, "What? Did this happen? Mr. Jiang, you did the right thing, well done. Even if I were there, I would not have condoned that little bastard! He learns nothing but trouble, forming bad cliques, causing trouble for me..."
"Le Zhengyi, you don't need to pretend in front of me."
Jiang Feng said indifferently, "Don't you know the whole course of events? Your son turned out this way because of your upbringing, and you are primarily responsible!"
"Mr. Jiang, I..." Le Zhengyi suddenly felt exposed by Jiang Feng, with no place to hide, and could only smile bitterly, unable to justify himself.
"What I never expected was, I helped you discipline your son so he wouldn't commit more crimes in the future, but instead of thanking me, you wanted revenge against me."
Jiang Feng continued coldly, his tone terrifyingly indifferent.
"Thud!!!" Finally, Le Zhengyi couldn't keep up the act and directly knelt in front of Jiang Feng, begging, "Mr. Jiang, I was wrong! I truly was wrong! But I never intended to go that far, it's all Huangfu Shang's fault!βHe came to me personally from the Provincial City, seduced me! I was momentarily confused, then... then..."
"Huangfu Shang?" Jiang Feng frowned, not expecting Huangfu Shang to be involved in this, realizing that Huangfu Shang was the true mastermind!
"Yes! He came to Binhai, currently staying at the Peninsula Hotel in South City, and forced me to do this. I, I..." Le Zhengyi hurriedly shifted all the responsibility onto Huangfu Shang.
"I see." Jiang Feng said expressionlessly, "I wondered who gave you the courage, and it was him!"
"However, if you didn't harbor resentment or greed toward me, no matter how much he seduced you, you wouldn't have colluded with him."
With that, Jiang Feng stood up calmly, looking at Le Zhengyi, "So, I came tonight to settle this. If someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend them. If someone does, I will eliminate them completely! Blame yourself for choosing a road of no return..."
"No... Please don't!! Mr. Jiang don't..." Hearing Jiang Feng's final ultimatum, Le Zhengyi felt utterly desperate, hurriedly crawling over and pleading piteously.
At that moment, he regretted making the stupidest decision of his life, standing against Jiang Feng!
He also hated himself for being blinded by hatred, choosing to hire someone to kill Jiang Feng!
But unfortunately, it was too late to say anything now; there was no cure for regret in this world!
"Save your repentance for the afterlife." As Jiang Feng's voice fell, he stepped forward expressionlessly and kicked Le Zhengyi, sending him flying.
Poor Le Zhengyi, being an ordinary person, lacked the robust power of the Winged Tiger Ancestor or the Iron Bone of other Maestro Experts!
Amidst screams, he was flung backward, and in mid-air, he directly exploded into flesh and blood, turning into a cloud of dust!
"Dad, what happened?"
At this moment, a voice came from the bedroom behind, and then the severely injured, pale-faced Le Zhenglin staggered out.
He had heard his father's previous scream and, confused, came to the living room. Before he could understand the situation, he was horrified by his father's tragic death!
Instantly, Le Zhenglin also let out a hysterical scream.
His eyes rolled back, and he immediately fainted on the spot.
At that moment, Le Zhenglin's spirit was severely impacted, and even if he regained consciousness later, he would likely remain mentally unsound and deranged...
