Chapter 179 Paying Life



Chapter 179 Paying Life

One fifty in the afternoon.

The alarm clock that Xu Yang had set in advance rang on time. He took the car keys and went to the airport to pick up Nora and others who had returned from a business trip.

An hour later, he took the people he picked up to the Jiaxing Film and Television Building.

As soon as I got off the car, I saw Xu Haixing coming out of the building.

"Are you all back?"

He stepped forward with a kind smile: "Nala, and everyone else have worked hard. Go up and do the handover. You will have a day off tomorrow."

After a few hours of flying, Nora didn't look tired, but her face without makeup looked a little pale. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xu. This is what we should do."

Although she was not in Jianghai City during the business trip, she often saw news about the company on the news.

First, Gao Xiaojun used a fake seal to transfer funds, and then a company employee committed suicide.

But the person who brought them back was Xu Yang, so Nara knew that the problem should not be serious and there was no need to ask as soon as they came back.

Xu Yang locked the car and asked, "Dad, isn't he in a meeting? Why did he come down?"

"Hey, a friend suddenly asked me out..."

A few people started chatting downstairs.

Matt, who was Xu Haixing's bodyguard, suddenly turned his head and looked somewhere with a frown.

Renault also seemed to sense something and turned his head to look.

There was a very strong gaze that had been staring at them since Xu Yang or Xu Haixing appeared.

Then they saw a skinny old man holding a portrait walking towards them.

The portrait was so large that it almost covered the old man's upper body, leaving only his neck and head exposed.

Matt and Renault felt uneasy. If there was something hidden behind the portrait, it would be dangerous.

"Stop, what are you doing!"

Two people blocked the old man's way.

Their voices attracted the attention of Xu Yang, Xu Haixing and others. When they turned around, they saw that the portrait in the old man's hand was who else but Wang Lei?

Renault and Matt stood tall and strong, their figures enough to cover Old Man Wang.

Old Man Wang was not afraid: "I am Wang Lei's grandfather, I want to see Xu Haixing!"

"Looking for me?" Xu Haixing muttered and was about to step forward.

Xu Yang quickly grabbed him and said, "Don't go."

Although I don’t know what Old Man Wang’s purpose is, seeing how cautious Matt and Renault are, I know it’s better to be careful.

Renault said sternly: "Throw away the portrait."

Old Man Wang raised his head and said, "Don't even think about it. This is my grandson!"

When he said this, he was not looking at Renault, but staring at Xu Haixing and Xu Yang behind them, with sparks almost coming out of his cloudy eyes.

"Then let's check it out!"

Matt raised his chin and squinted his eyes, trying to look down at what Old Man Wang had hidden behind the portrait.

But Old Man Wang immediately stepped back and covered his upper body tightly with the portrait.

"Xu Haixing, you black-hearted thing, you killed my grandson, my grandson will not let you go!" He shouted loudly, and the veins on his skinny neck bulged due to the force.

Hearing this, everyone frowned.

Xu Haixing's face was even more solemn. "The results of the police investigation are very clear. Wang Lei's death has nothing to do with me. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can go to the police station and tell me. Even if you come to me, there is no way Wang Lei can survive."

"The police are in cahoots with you!" Old Man Wang's eyes flashed with grief. "It was you who bribed the police, and that's why my grandson's death is so unclear!"

"Give me an explanation of how my grandson died!"

"Please, this is my only grandson, and I don't want him to die with regrets..."

He roared and knelt down in front of Matt and Renault, tears streaming down his face.

With a "click", Wang Lei's portrait fell to the ground, the back facing up, and there was no murder weapon hidden on it as the two people imagined.

Matt and Renault looked at each other.

This is so strange. It is obvious that this old man came with malicious intentions, but he didn’t bring any weapons?

Old man Wang was wearing a gray sun-protection jacket. He was thin and the hem of his clothes was bunched up because of his kneeling.

Xu Haixing couldn't bear it any longer, so he brushed off Xu Yang's hand and walked forward. "Old man, I'm very sorry about Wang Lei's death, but there are many suspicious circumstances surrounding his death, and we're still investigating. But don't worry, I'll definitely give you an explanation for this matter."

Xu Yang was still uneasy and followed forward.

What he didn't notice was that Nora had followed him for some reason.

The old man raised his head: "Really?"

"Of course it's true. Why don't you get up first and we can go into the building and talk."

Wang Lei’s death has already put Jiaxing in the spotlight. If the media captures Old Man Wang kneeling down again, the company’s stock will surely fall again.

Xu Haixing compensated Wang Lei's family by spending money to avoid disaster, so that they would give up the intention of causing trouble and stabilize the company's stock.

Old man Wang stood up tremblingly, but his expression suddenly changed from grief to ferocious!

With a loud "bang"!

He unzipped his sun-protective jacket, pulled out a beer bottle tied to his waist, and slammed it into Xu Haixing's face, shouting:

"You son of a bitch, pay for my grandson's life—"

It turned out that Old Man Wang used the portrait as a deception and knelt down to show weakness in order to dispel Xu Haixing's suspicion. Under the hem of his piled-up clothes, he hid a beer bottle with a wooden cork. What liquid was inside, probably only he knew!

The beer bottle flew between Matt and Renault and was about to hit Xu Haixing in the face!

This sudden change made everyone stunned, without even time to shout.

Xu Yang's heart trembled violently, and he subconsciously pushed Xu Haixing away.

But his eyes blurred, and another figure blocked his way, and there was an anxious voice: "Xu Yang, be careful!"

It's too late to say.

With a loud "bang", the beer bottle hit the portrait and exploded. The splashing liquid mixed with glass shards of the bottle and the portrait exploded. The photo immediately turned black and even burned through, followed by a pungent smell!

"Damn, it's sulfuric acid!" Matt cursed as he grabbed the portrait to block the wine bottle!

"what--"

Most of the liquid captured in the photo splashed on Old Man Wang. He had no time to dodge and let out a wail the moment he was splashed.

Renault gathered all his strength, raised his foot and kicked the man several meters away!

Before the two of them could catch their breath, two strong men with knives rushed up from a distance and shouted, "Go to hell!"

Matt threw the portrait away, crouched down and pounced on the strong man like a cheetah, hitting his huge fist on the chin. Then he grabbed the man's belt and collar, lifted him up and threw him to the ground. With a "clang", the knife fell to the ground.

Renault swept the strong man's lower body, and when the man lost his balance, he locked his throat with his strong arms and used his back to throw him to the ground!

The strong man's knife slipped out of his hand and slid into the hands of old man Wang.

Old Man Wang was so angry that he picked up the knife and rushed forward. At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind.

This thought was so strong that it made him forget the pain of being burned by sulfuric acid. That was—

Avenge my grandson!
