What to Do If I Become the Villain’s Daughter - Chapter 91
Shen Shiyan was somewhat puzzled.0
He bent down close to Huo Guining and asked, “Ning Ning, what are you saying?”0
Huo Guining’s brows were furrowed, his expression somewhat pained, but more anxious: “My dad, he seems to have gone to find Jiang Suyuan…”0
Huo Yueze pushed through the crowd, squeezing to Huo Guining’s bedside.0
“Ning Ning, do you mean that Uncle has gone to seek revenge on Jiang Suyuan?”0
Huo Guining nodded heavily.0
Upon hearing this, Shen Shiyan also became anxious.0
These past few days, he had been keeping an eye on Huo Xiaozheng’s behavior.0
Given his usual personality, it wasn’t impossible that he might do something irreversible, in fact, it was highly likely that it couldn’t be undone.0
Shen Shiyan took out his phone: “I’ll call him.”0
“Beep beep beep…”0
The wait became exceptionally long.0
“The number you have dialed is busy, please try again later. Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is busy…”0
In a ruined building on the outskirts of the city.0
Huo Xiaozheng, dressed in a black suit, sat upright on the rooftop platform.0
His forehead bangs were combed back, revealing sharp eyebrows beneath his clean forehead.0
Golden sunlight came from behind him, casting a ground full of afterglow.0
The rooftop had no railing, and near the edge lay two people.0
Their hands and feet were bound, and they appeared to be unconscious.0
Huo Xiaozheng waved his hand.0
The bodyguard beside him immediately understood, grabbing two buckets of ice water and splashing them onto the two people.0
“Hiss~”0
A sharp intake of breath was heard as the two lying down woke up groggily.0
“Zhiyi, are you alright?”0
It was Jiang Suyuan and Qin Zhiyi.0
Qin Zhiyi shook her head pitifully, indicating she was temporarily fine.0
Both Jiang Suyuan and Qin Zhiyi looked equally disheveled.0
The usually elegant and graceful Qin Zhiyi now had hair as messy as a bird’s nest, and her down jacket had been caught on something, with the inner down eagerly poking out.0
It stuck to both her and Jiang Suyuan’s hair.0
The bucket of ice water poured over their heads earlier had caused the down to flow into their mouths with the water.0
Jiang Suyuan spat and cursed loudly: “Huo Xiaozheng, what madness are you up to?”0
“Don’t you know that your behavior is illegal!”0
Huo Xiaozheng sneered.0
“The law? In the past, I trusted the law too much. That’s why it was so easy for you Jiang family people to commit evil deeds.”0
Jiang Suyuan frowned: “Do you have to be at odds with the Jiang family?”0
Huo Xiaozheng shook his head, saying seriously: “Of course not.”0
Qin Zhiyi saw that Huo Xiaozheng’s state was not right at the moment, and immediately tried to persuade him: “Brother Xiaozheng, can we talk this through? There’s no problem that needs to be solved by such means, right?”0
Huo Xiaozheng raised his hand and turned the watch on his wrist, the deep blue watch emitting a cold light: “I have nothing to say to you.”0
Qin Zhiyi was startled: “Did something happen to Ning Ning?”0
Huo Xiaozheng looked at the two with a half-smile: “What do you think?”0
Jiang Suyuan let out a sigh of relief, only to hear him say through gritted teeth: “Huo Xiaozheng, don’t be unreasonable, it was your daughter who was rude first…”0
“Jiang Suyuan, Qin Zhiyi,” Huo Xiaozheng interrupted him calmly, “Tell me, if my daughter had been raised by the Huo Family from childhood, would she still be so rude?”0
“When you’re facing the consequences of your own actions, why push the blame onto my daughter?”0
Huo Xiaozheng patted off non-existent dust from his hands, stood up and squatted down in front of the two, looking down at their disheveled appearance.0
“Qin Zhiyi, you’re pregnant, right?”0
Qin Zhiyi shuddered at his cold gaze: “What do you want to do?”0
Huo Xiaozheng’s lips held a smile, but his eyes were wild: “My daughter asked me, if her mother doesn’t love her, why did she give birth to her.”0
“I couldn’t answer.”0
“Since you’re also a mother, tell me, how should I answer my daughter’s question?”0
Qin Zhiyi’s lips trembled, and she remained speechless for a long time.0
Jiang Suyuan said with difficulty: “This matter, we adults have wronged her.”0
“Apologize?” Huo Xiaozheng laughed uncontrollably as if he had heard some incredible joke.0
The early spring chill was biting, and the howling wind blew through the nearby forest, rustling.0
The laughter and the sound of wind blowing through the trees made the entire scene seem eerie.0
Huo Xiaozheng suddenly stopped laughing without warning and said seriously: “If an apology was enough, what would be the point of me being a father?”0
“Since you don’t understand the principles of being human, don’t drag your unborn child into this. The three of you, all neat and tidy, should go down early to accompany my daughter in death.”0
He raised his hand slightly, and the bodyguard beside him stepped forward, dragging the two towards the edge of the roof.0
Qin Zhiyi’s pupils shook violently, struggling while shouting: “Huo Xiaozheng, you’ve really gone mad.”0
Huo Xiaozheng said calmly: “I’m not mad, but my daughter is about to go mad.”0
His gaze drifted into the distance.0
“While you two were lovey-dovey, fighting with me over that piece of land that means nothing to you.”0
“My daughter was worried sick about me, fearing that you would push me into a corner.”0
Huo Xiaozheng didn’t mention feeling manipulated, nor did he bring up the period of waiting in vain, devoid of self-respect.0
Before meeting Ning Ning, he already had a premonition that he would die – the kind of death that comes too early.0
Although he didn’t know when, where, or for what reason.0
Ning Ning’s worry wasn’t misplaced.0
Perhaps it was due to blood ties, or perhaps Ning Ning was born highly sensitive.0
Or maybe Ning Ning’s past experiences had made her more perceptive to danger.0
In any case, regarding the matter of ‘Huo Xiaozheng dying young’, he and Ning Ning seemed to have the same intuition.0
Qin Zhiyi’s desperate cry interrupted his thoughts: “What do you really want???”0
He gave the disheveled pair a strange smile, his tone soft, like the whisper of a demon.0
“To put my daughter at ease, why don’t you two just die…”0
Qin Zhiyi and Jiang Suyuan never expected that Huo Xiaozheng was actually serious.0
Jiang Suyuan shouted: “Huo Xiaozheng! Let Zhiyi go, if you have any issues, come at me!”0
“If you care about your daughter, for her sake, you should accumulate some virtue!!!”0
‘Accumulate virtue’?0
These two words seemed to hit a nerve with Huo Xiaozheng.0
Huo Xiaozheng walked towards Jiang Suyuan, grabbed his head and shoved it to the ground: “If you want to beg for mercy, you’d better soften your tone.”0
“Rather than, provoking me by cursing my daughter.”0
Huo Xiaozheng said, enunciating each word.0
As he spoke, he lifted Jiang Suyuan’s head and smashed it hard against the concrete ground. Instantly, blood flowed profusely.0
Qin Zhiyi let out a scream, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted on the spot.0
Huo Xiaozheng’s action used every ounce of his strength, leaving Jiang Suyuan’s head ringing.0
After a good while, amidst Qin Zhiyi’s screams, he felt a burning pain, warm blood flowing down his cheeks.0
