A bullet flew in from outside and found its mark on the shoulder of one of Xiang Jinxi’s subordinates.
The other man caught a bullet in his heart. He fell onto the ground and died instantly.
Everything happened too quickly. When Xiang Jinxi came, he saw that Huo Yunting had arrived together with Huo Li and a group of men.
Wait a minute, who is the person walking alongside Huo Yunting…
“Huo Li!”
Xiang Jinxi’s jaw dropped. “It’s you!”
“Surprise!”
Huo Li said mockingly as he toyed with a small and delicately crafted pistol in his hand.
“…”
Xiang Jinxi clenched his fists tightly. His pale face contorted in anger.
He scowled at Huo Yunting, who looked calm and at ease, and said hoarsely, “Huo Yunting, since you are already here, I have nothing to say. You have won! I only hope that you can enlighten me on a few things.”
Huo Yunting responded crisply, “Ask away.”
He and Xiang Jinxi both understood that the latter would not leave the place alive that day.
“How did you do it?”
Xiang Jinxi felt a burning sensation in his chest that threatened to swallow him whole.
“I know you probably guessed that I was working with Eric, and that I was coming for you. What I don’t understand is how you found me so quickly. Correct me if I’m wrong, but you got to Eric already, didn’t you? Was that you?”
Huo Yunting seemed to have anticipated the question and chuckled softly.
“Firstly, let me ask you, Xiang Jinxi. What do you think I’ve been doing all this while? Playing your game of business rivalry? You underestimated me. You were buying time for Eric, but it also gave me time to search for your secret base!”
“…”
Xiang Jinxi’s face turned white as a sheet.
So that was it.
Despite all his planning, it was still not enough.
Despite having lost once, he continued to underestimate his foe.
Or perhaps, Huo Yunting was simply too cunning for him.
He had lost due to overconfidence.
More importantly, Huo Yunting knew the city and also the entire Z Country better than himself. That was how he could find this place so swiftly.
“Secondly…”
Huo Yunting continued plainly with a neutral expression.
“As you said, Eric is already captured.”
“How?”
Xiang Jinxi did not fully understand how he got to this point yet. He had to find out how he lost, or he would die a miserable man!
“How did you manage to find so many people to work for you?”
Huo Yunting owned Thunderbolt Corp, but Xiang Jinxi already had the entire company under his surveillance.
“That one’s easy,” Huo Yunting replied openly, “It’s because I have an uncle in the military.”
“…”
Xiang Jinxi opened his mouth, but could not form any words.
After a long moment, his eyes widened as he came to realize the truth.
“Huo Chen? No, why would he help you? You were arguing that day…”
He stared at the man in disbelief and growled, “Was it all an act?”
Huo Yunting shrugged. “That it is.”
He looked harmlessly innocent, but the words he said were insulting as hell.
“I can’t help it. He has connections, it’s a waste not to use them.”
“…”
Xiang Jinxi stumbled a few steps backward and looked harrowed.
That was it!
He was convinced that Huo Chen would not help Huo Yunting. That conviction led one mistake to another!
