“Ha!” With a sneer, Qin Muchen squatted down and gripped Mu Ninghui by the collar of his pajama top. “I’m surprised you still can recognize me with one glance although it’s been a long time since we last met!”
Qin Muchen was here!
Not only had he been hauled out of bed while he was asleep in the middle of the night, the person who did that was Qin Muchen, the culprit who had crippled one of his legs!
“Why are you here?! Where are my bodyguards? Where’s the butler?” Mu Ninghui struggled hard, trying to get to his feet.
Yet, Qin Muchen’s hold on his collar was like a vice.
Frustrated and anxious as he failed to free himself from Qin Muchen, it was only when he turned around and spotted Qin Muchen’s men did he start to panic.
Qin Muchen remained unstirred no matter how hard Mu Ninghui tried to scream for help.
Out of nowhere, a dagger materialized in his hand which he then pressed against Mu Ninghui’s chest. With his head slightly tilted to one side, he threatened with a sinister face, “Do you think I’m brave enough to kill you?”
His chest suddenly tightened when the image of Su Ziyue moaning in pain in his arms flashed across
his mind, and he gripped the dagger tighter.
He felt a driving urge to kill Mu Ninghui.
But, he was not sure whether Su Ziyue would detest him after knowing that he had murdered someone.
After all, the life Su Ziyue had been living was way simpler than his.
As someone who survived in a world which only valued gains and profits, he had dealt with both the police and gangsters before. Therefore, he did not attach much importance to a human life.
“Argh! S-Stop what you’re doing right now! You can’t afford to offend my family…”
Mu Ninghui, who felt a mild pain at his chest, was so frightened that he started screaming, a layer of sweat forming on his forehead.
At that moment, the things Su Yige had told him before replayed quickly in his mind. According to her, Qin Muchen was just a poor lad working as a vice president in a small company with no backer.
Although Qin Muchen and his men looked very intimidating now, he kept trying to use that excuse to make himself feel better.
“P-Please calm down. I’ll try my best to fulfill all your requests, and I won’t call the police. If… you’re after money, I can give it to you because my family has plenty of money…”
Feeling his confidence crumbling bit by bit because of Qin Muchen’s domineering aura, Mu Ninghui did
not dare to continue talking.
Qin Muchen responded to him with an icy snort. “Your family has plenty of money?”
“Yes, that’s right. My family has tons of money. How much do you want? I can write a check for you right now!” As the only son of his parents, Mu Ninghui had grown up under the indulgence of his family. Although he was an idle man who had accomplished nothing, he was much loved by his family and was allowed to spend lavishly.
That was the reason why he had gone astray.
The Mu Family had risen to become an important and prestigious family in Yunzhou City due to the abundant talents the family boasted.
“In that case, I’d love to see how much time I’d need to make your family bankrupt.”
“What do you think?” he asked Mu Ninghui after making that statement.
Finally, Mu Ninghui was seized by a spasm of fear because he realized that Qin Muchen was going to walk his talk judging from the confidence in his eyes.
Although he sounded presumptuous, Mu Ninghui was somehow convinced by it, and he believed that Qin Muchen meant what he said and would be able to execute his threat by making his family bankrupt.
Yet, as someone who had never met any obstacles in his life, it ticked him off to suffer two major setbacks because of Qin Muchen.
With his neck stiffened, he refused to say anything.
After a moment of silence, Qin Muchen, who had at first planned to crippled his other leg, changed his mind.
Since Su Ziyue was injured, he wanted Mu Ninghui to suffer something even worse than her injury by a thousand times. Yet, it would only be a matter of time before he would recover from any injury, and it would not be sufficient to just cripple him.
Qin Muchen then looked at one of his men and demanded, “Get me the gun.”
He took the gun from the man who obediently fished it out for him and said, “Bring the butler here.”
Soon, the butler was brought into Mu Ninghui’s room.
“Have you called the police?” Qin Muchen’s airy tone turned the butler’s legs into jelly. “I-I haven’t…” he answered.
“Are you sure? But I can already hear police sirens.” Qin Muchen aimed the gun at the butler, who immediately slumped to the ground with a thud.
Appearing unruffled, Qin Muchen said, “Well done.”
Then, he stuffed the gun into Mu Ninghui’s hands and pointed at the butler. “Shoot him now or I’ll shoot you. Make your own choice.” While Qin Muchen was talking to him, he brandished the gun at the same time. Mu Ninghui was terror-stricken as soon as he spotted the gun.
Without thinking, he followed Qin Muchen’s instructions and snatched the gun from him. “I’ll shoot him!”
He fired a shot at the butler as soon as he seized the gun from Qin Muchen as if he was worried that Qin Muchen might go back on his word.
Following a bang, blood flowed out from the butler’s arm.
The next instant, the police siren could be heard blaring from the courtyard of the mansion. The police barged into the mansion less than one minute later and arrested Mu Ninghui red-handed.
…
Mu Ninghui was brought away by the police right away. Mr. and Mrs. Mu, who had been detained by Qin Muchen’s men in their mansion, had no idea what had taken place when they saw their son being taken away by the police.
“Who on earth are you guys?!” Mrs. Mu leaned against the doorframe and yelled at Qin Muchen. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Qin Muchen stopped in his tracks and turned around to give Mrs. Mu a glance with his pensive eyes before he left.
When he got back to the car, his subordinate who was in charge of driving turned around and asked him with some confusion, “Mr. Qin, is that all you’re going to do to him?”
They had assumed that they were here for a fight, so they were all itching for some action, but to their surprise, they were just there to watch Mu Ninghui fire a shot at his butler.
Qin Muchen glanced at him with an impassive look. “We live in a society governed by law and order. How can we hit somebody at our whims and fancies?”
His subordinate, who was left speechless, turned around and started reminiscing the old days when Qin Muchen preferred to solve problems with violence.
Soon, he heard Qin Muchen make another comment, “Things are different now compared to the past. Don’t settle everything with violence. Besides, not everyone is worth the effort.”
After Mu Ninghui, a rich young master who had spent most of his life doing nothing, was sent to prison, he just needed to pull some strings to make sure Mu Ninghui got the treatment he deserved from the people inside.
On top of that, he was bound to be sentenced to prison for around seven to eight years for committing assault with a firearm. Only God knew whether he would still be alive by the time his term ended.
Even though Mu Ninghui was backed up by his family…
As what he had told Mu Ninghui before, he would carry out the interesting experiment to see how much time he needed to bankrupt his family.
It had been a long time since he last personally took action, and he was forced to do so by them.
…
By the time he returned to the hospital, Su Ziyue was still asleep.
Nan Chuan did not dare to leave because of his orders.
“Mr. Qin.” When Nan Chuan spoke, he deliberately edged closer to his boss, but he did not detect any smell of blood.
Did he not do anything?
Of course, Qin Muchen couldn’t care less about what was on Nan Chuan’s mind because his eyes were glued on the bed.
Seeing that Su Ziyue was not sleeping too soundly, he patted her back and said to Nan Chuan, “You may go.”
