Chapter 116: World falling apart
Xiyang put the handcuffs on Zou Haoran and pushed him forward the police car to be taken to the bureau. "Start walking."
Zou Haoran was staring down at his locked wrists with a pandemonium of unknown thoughts in his mind.
"Why did you kill Sir Kong?" Zhang Feiyue asked as he was being taken away. "Why did you want to frame me for it? I don’t understand. Everything was well between you and Sir, right? A-and I never did anything to hurt you..."
He didn’t immediately respond as he kept staring at the ground. His gaze then pierced through Zhang Feiyue as if he would eat him alive. "You don’t understand a single thing...You don’t understand anything! You were in my way of promotion and that old prick didn’t want to give me the promotion I deserved. So I thought why not kill two birds with one stone?"
Zhang Feiyue’s eyes widened.
In his way of promotion?
"I was never in your way. To Sir Kong, my work and performance has always been..." his gaze lowered, "abysmal. I have messed up so many times that I wouldn’t even cross his mind for a promotion."
Especially after last night when I repeatedly ignored his calls. I don’t even want to imagine how furious he would have felt, he thought.
He sneered. "You are such a great actor, Feiyu. You act like a weak and scared man in front of your team. But behind our backs, you outperform."
He said incredulous. "What are you talking about? You and Hu Linglu have seen it for youselves how many times Sir Kong have lashed out at me. Th-there was nothing going behind your backs."
Huojin said, "It’s okay Zhang Feiyue. Zou Haoran will answer all the further questions and explain his actions to the court. Take him away, Xiyang."
