Chapter 1933: Weakness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Don’t choose to do this the hard way! I’m only allowing you to be with my daughter because 1 think highly of you! Don’t be so ungrateful! Either you abandon your mission and join us today, or you will die here like your seniors! I believe you’re a smart person and you know how to make the right choice,” Yang Jiao said.

Since Yang Jiao already knew about Xia Zhe having a false identity, he did not bother to pretend anymore. He smiled mockingly and said, “You want me to join you? Just your daughter and your influence is not enough. My company will be able to reach the same scale as yours in another two to three years. Why should I take this kind of risk?”

Yang Jiao looked at Xia Zhe in admiration. He actually thought very highly of Xia Zhe and Xia Zhe was indeed stating the facts. Given a few more years, Xia Zhe would indeed be a force to reckon with. This was also the reason why Yang Jiao tacitly allowed Yang Meng to pursue Xia Zhe.

However, all humans had weaknesses. Any human would feel fear and anxiety, and have a weak spot. Xia Zhe was definitely a human with a weakness.

I guess you must have a sweetheart! And there’s also your accomplice! The new female secretary in your company must be Su Rui’s replacement, isn’t she? She does look much smarter and more vigilant than Su Rui, but it’s not good for a woman to be too wary. It will only cause her to be exposed faster. Guess where the two of them are now?” Yang Jiao asked with a smile.

Xia Zhe panicked immediately even though his expression did not change much. He believed that Jiang Ting was a person who could cope with whatever came her way. There were other comrades here who could help them, but what about Qiao Mei? At this time, Qiao Mei should be on the plane heading home.

No! There’s one person missing here! Where was Yang Jiu! He had been gone for a while now!

“Hahaha! It finally occurred to you! I’ve already asked Yang Jiu to go and capture your sweetheart. Tell me, who is more capable, my son or your little darling?” Yang Jiao said as he laughed impudently.

Xia Zhe did not reply to Yang Jiao. He could only silently hope that Qiao Mei was fine and that those bodyguards would be useful enough. As long as Qiao Mei boarded the plane and returned to the town, Luo Yu and Luo Hui would be able to protect her. As long as she had boarded the plane, she would be fine…

“Let me take this opportunity to give you another gift! A gift that you will definitely be pleased with!” Yang Jiao waved his hand and asked his subordinates to bring two people over. When Xia Zhe saw the woman, his eyes widened.

Jiang Ting had been caught!

As for the other man, Xia Zhe did not know him but he looked familiar. This man had been abused so badly that he was unrecognizable. There were knife wounds all over his body and he was still bleeding profusely.

“Come! Let me introduce you. This is your senior! His name is Wu Nuo and he’s your predecessor. The reason why you are here to spy on me is because they think he’s dead! But he’s not dead, he’s just being tortured in my basement! He has been living in pain all this while!” Yang Jiao walked over and grabbed Wu Nuo’s head, saying, “Come! Say hello!”

Xia Zhe looked into those empty eyes and it was as if Wu Nuo was just a puppet, a rotting puppet. He no longer had any fighting spirit or will to live and just waited for death every day in pain.

“You should reconsider what 1 said earlier. If you’re willing to be with my daughter, I’ll still treat you like my own son! Let’s have a better future together! Isn’t that good?” Yang Jiao said excitedly.

“In your dreams!” Xia Zhe said mockingly.

“Tsk… You can really make me angry so easily.” Yang Jiao called over many bodyguards and asked them to surround Jiang Ting.

Xia Zhe had long heard that Yang Jiao kept a private army in this villa. Some of these people had been trained to kill since they were young, while others were mercenaries who worked for Yang Jiao. All of them were extraordinary fighters and there was not a single woman in the entire building. The entire team was made up of men.

Yang Jiao never lacked attention from women. There were many women who wanted to be his lover.

“Come! Serve this Miss Jiang well! You can play with her however you want. Be careful not to let Miss Jiang kill you,” Yang Jiao said casually..
