100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 518: Are You Worthy?
Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Are You Worthy?
And the retribution that followed was being abandoned by everyone, with nobody truly trustworthy by his side, no one with whom to speak honestly.
Even with overwhelming power and enormous wealth, he struggled to win a single heart, to earn a bit of affection, living as though he were dead...
The moment he learned of Xiaoqiao’s existence, he felt a surge of excitement and surprise, thinking perhaps there was still a chance for redemption but now, he realized that her arrival was not to save him to heaven, but to thoroughly cast him into hell...
Huo Yandong’s face turned ashen in an instant, as if he aged ten years. He looked at the girl in front of him who was aiming a gun at him with deep hostility.
She resembled him so much, inheriting his decisiveness and cruelty, his forbearance and tenacity, but he knew she was completely different from him because she grew up in the sunlight.
"Girl, come here," Huo Yandong’s voice was low.
"What tricks are you trying to play now?" Xiaoqiao glared at him, her face full of suspicion, backing away a few steps instead of coming closer.
"I just have something to tell you alone," Huo Yandong seemed to anticipate her disbelief and added, "It’s about your mother."
Xiaoqiao’s expression faltered, then she clenched her teeth, just about to step forward when Gu Hangshen pulled her back, "Don’t go!"
Xiaoqiao gave Gu Hangshen a reassuring look and then decisively took a few steps forward. freewebnøvel.com
Seeing her approach, Huo Yandong actually attempted to touch her, but she agilely avoided it, "What do you really want?"
Huo Yandong looked at her, "I don’t want much, just for you... to call me ’Father.’
"In your dreams!" Xiaoqiao cursed without hesitation.
Even Gu Hangshen was surprised, not understanding what Huo Yandong meant!
Clearly, Xiaoqiao was thoroughly infuriated and couldn’t hold back. Fortunately, he figured that the others would soon be here.
Sure enough, not long after, a tumult of footsteps sounded, Shen Letian arrived with Lian Yi’s people in tow.
Shen Letian ran over quickly, "Tang Yu! Damn it, how did it come to this!"
Gu Hangshen finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Quick, get Tang Yu to the hospital!"
Tang Yu’s condition was very critical, and Shen Letian didn’t have the time to think further, glancing worriedly at Xiaoqiao and Gu Hangshen. Now that Huo Yandong was surrounded, it was unlikely he could escape, so he hurriedly took Tang Yu away. Thankfully, an ambulance had been called in advance at the base of the mountain.
Although he was encircled, Huo Yandong’s expression remained fearless.
On the contrary, they, who came in a fury, now hesitated to act because of Huo Yandong’s certainty.
Everyone was closely watching his every move, even the slightest expression, a dozen guns aimed at him.
Huo Yandong held a gun in one hand, and with the other hand he gently twisted a delicate button on his coat, "Do you know what this is? With a single press, the entire cliff will be blown to bits!"
All were shocked, and some began to retreat in fear.
Huo Yandong looked at Xiaoqiao, who was closest to him, "Girl, if you don’t want everyone to be buried with me, you’d better listen to me obediently!"
Listen obediently?
Call him father?
Xiaoqiao laughed in fury, "Ha, father? Do you deserve it?"
"Huo Yandong, how dare you make such a demand of me? From the day I was born, you never cared for me for even a single day, you didn’t even know I existed.
