To Love You Again - zChapter 790
The pressure in the enormous living room was immense. The people kneeling on the ground felt like there were huge boulders placed on their shoulders. Ming Zhi Yi did not even hide his overbearing and contemptuous aura, making his presence known.
No one dared to breathe loudly in the presence of this tyrannical king.
Ming Zhi Yi who was now sitting on the couch smiled at the group kneeling in front of him.
Seeing that no one answered him, the smile on his face deepened.
See? These people were supposed to be the winner of the so-called war. However, they were kneeling in front of him. Their lives were entirely in his hands.
Finally, the control and power that he once lost were in his hands again. He was the sovereign, the master, and the winner until the end. He might have lost his wealth, his influence, and many of his people, but it’s all worth it. For this satisfactory ending with his enemy, Ming Zhi was ready to pay with many lives.
Ming Zhi Yi looked down on the heirs and heiress who were always treasured by the four families. These prideful and distinguished youngsters were trembling in fear. It satisfied the thirst for power and control in Ming Zhi Yi’s heart. Though, this little contentment could not fully fill up the empty dried well in his heart.
Ming Zhi Yi leaned back on the red couch. Enjoying the view.
“Don’t be shy. Your visions are hindered but your tongues work perfectly fine, right? You can speak freely. We all have time in our hands.”
Xiong Zhi bit her lips. What she needed right now was time. Ming Zhi Yi was clearly looking for entertainment. If only conversation last, she would speak all day. This is also the best time to know how much Ming Zhi Yi knew about them. She opened her mouth to ask.
“Why did you take us?”
Xiong Zhi’s voice was weak. But even though she was visibly trembling from Ming Zhi Yi’s overbearing aura, there was a sharpness in her voice.
Ming Zhi Yi looked at her with cold interest.
“You are the Xiong heiress, right? Since you managed to be the heiress of the Xiong family, you must already have some answers in your heart.”
Tang Xinyang recovered from Ming Zhi Yi’s pressure. She gained her valor and spoke coldly,
“Is this revenge? Because our families beat you down, you turn to us instead? I thought the man who is able to make the four families unite just to bring him down would be impressive than this. Instead, you draw such dirty tricks?”
Ming Zhi Yi turned to Tang Xinyang. His smile turned colder. “Tang Heiress, your Tang family killed the majority of my men. I made a full-proof plan for two months just to get all of you out with less casualty on my sides as possible, yet, only twelve of my people managed to get out. And to take you, the casualty increased.”
Ming Zhi Yi opened his arms, playing like the hero of justice.” Don’t you know how much pain I felt after losing so many of my people? The experts around you, have also lost their brothers in the Tang family’s battle. If I were you, you should be careful on what you are going to say. I can just let them loose and get justice from you, right? What a drugged woman can do in front of these powerful men? Think about it carefully, Heiress Tang.”
The threat in his voice was evident. Coupled with the hostility from the experts, it made Tang Xinyang unconsciously bit her trembling lips.
“Ming Zhi Yi….” An angry voice appeared on the side. “Is not enough for you to kill my family? After a failure, you use this despicable method to gain back your lost pride!” Guan Gu Ri’s rage overwhelmed his initial fear.
Guan Gu Ri’s anger that he bottled up in his heart resurfaced. The man who destroyed his family and played around their life like there were chess pieces was standing not far away from him. Whenever he thought about it, his killing intent would be riled up.
“Do you remember my brother? Guan Gao Huan? He was only a child yet used him and killed him! What did the Guan family ever done to you? Why do you have to kill my innocent brother?! Only a monster like you can kill a child!”
Now that Guan Gu Ri was finally facing Ming Zhi Yi, the desire to tear him to pieces made his body tremble. He had kept this anger, the resentment, and the desire to kill in his heart for too long. Even he would die today, he had to bring this devil down with him!
If his hands and feet were not tied he would have rushed into this bastard! If he could just kill him with his own hands!
“Oh…the young Guan head? I forgot you are here. I have something important to ask-” Ming Zhi suddenly stood up. He then kicked Guan Gu Ri’s stomach.
Bam!
“Kuahh!” Guan Gu Ri who was kneeling on the ground was forcefully backed away by Ming Zhi Yi’s kick.
Ming Zhi Yi did not like Guan Gu Ri’s tone. His kick had great strength that it made Guan Gu Ri curled up in pain. “You better not act tough and arrogant in front of me. Who is the one tied and could not see here? Me or you?”
“Agh..” If his head was not covered Guan Gu Ri would be staring daggers at Ming Zhi Yi right now.
Ming Zhi Yi stepped on his chest like he was stepping on some bug. “Young Head, I will not dwell in your sob story. We have something more important to discuss.”
His eyes then flashed darkly, “Who informed you of Gunan’s true identity? I am confident no one won’t be able to find his true origin. He has Guan blood in his dirty veins so fooling you guys are so easy.. It is clear that you and the person who attacked me are working together. So who is it?”
