BXBX NOVEL Chapter 599 - Blowing Steam
"Find him."
"I will."
"Thanks."
Beep!
"Cheng?" Li An called out. She was so worried about him especially the way he yeed and from his conversation, he must have found the real culprit.
"Honey, talk to mother. What is going on?" She asked him, standing up slowly with her gaze still fixated on him.
"Everything." He tightened his grip on his phone, his face now filled wih rage as coldness brimmed from his brown eyes.
"Talk to me, who is it? Who hurt Li Jing?"
"Hu Donghai."
"Do I know him?"
"He is the righthand man to Chairman Zhang. That can only mean one thing. Charman Zhang is the culprit. In order to hurt e, he used Li Jing. I would never forgive him."
"So what would you do?"
"Wait till they find the bastard and get it all out of him."
"Honey, do not do something you would regret."
"Trust me mum, I won\'t kill him but he would wish he was dead instead."
Without uttering another word, he fixed his gaze at the door and walked out, leaving them behind to blow off some steam.

Just as he steped out of the room, Ye Cheng saw Yi Wang Lei rushing towards where he was with a bouquet in his hands and a somewhat angry face.
"Ye Cheng!" He called when he noticed the angry look on his friend\'s face.
"Wang Lei." His gaze went over the flowers in his hand before looking back at his friend\'s face.
"Oh these, these are for Li Jing. To wish her speedy recovery. The box of chocolate I ordered would arrive." When he saw that the look in his friend\'s eyes did not change, he shook his head and asked, "What is wrong?"
"The culprit. It is Chairman Zhang\'s right hand man."
"What!"
"Yeah. Fong Wei Ling dd some investigation and torturing but that is what it is."
"Are you sure?"
"If you do not trust me, then trust Wei Ling. It doesn\'t matter which of us you trust, know this, I must let loose and that scoundrel. I let them off before when they wanted my life but not this time."
"Ye Cheng."
"Hurt me, insult me I would not be mad but go after Li Jing or insult her, you just awoke the dragon."
Peeling his gaze off his friend\'s face, he looked at the elevator and walked away.
It took some seconds for Yi Wang Lei to get himself back, by then Ye Cheng was by the elevator as he pressed on the button.
"Ye Cheng." Forgetting Li Jing who he was going to see, he hurried after Ye Cheng and on getting there, Ye Cheng was already in and about to go.
"Where?"
"Long Lei."
"Fine," he said catching his breathe. "I am coming."
"Okay."
***
"You said?"
"It is as you heard, Long Lei. That old buffan was the real deal."
"I did not say it was the old buffan" Ye Chneg corrected.
"Nevertheless, be it his body guard or not. They were his people and that automatically means, he is involved. Even not for anything but for…"
"As the man who wanted me dead, I would repay all I owe a minute before him," Ye Cheng completed.
"Forget that I am a doctor, I really want to take his life."
"Calm down, Long Lei. Your profession involves putting lives first than any other thing."
"This man…."
"Calm down," Ye Cheng half yelled, shutting the two of them involuntarily. "I am trying to think here."
Looking at each other, Yi Wang Lei and Long Lei took in a deep breath before seating down, mimicking Ye Cheng.
Soon after, Long Lei\'s eyes fell on Wang Lei\'s hand, causing him to narrow his eyes on him. "Hey why are you with a bouquet? What\'s with the occasion? Having a date?"
He did not get to answer the question befpre Ye Chneg chipped in and answered. "Its for my wife."
"Ah, I see. Okay but why not drop it with her, while come up with it?"
"Well I met Ye Cheng on the way, so I followed him here."
"Ah."
For some minutes none of them spoke to each other. Each one had a different thought going through their mind that all they could think of was anger and revenge on the ones that did this.
"You know, I think I need to be there when that monster is being tortured. He might not want to spill the truth about who sent him. I doubt he jyst wanted to get back at me."
"So you are saying it might be Zhang or someone else?" Long Lei asked.
"No, I think he might be suspecting someone else, his granddaughter."
"Bai Qing Mei?" Neither Ye Cheng nor Yi Wang Lei spoke, they all kept calm and analysed. "Guys, answer me."
"But then again it might not be her considering since she did not pull a stunt as big as this, that is why my guess is still Chairman Zhang."
"Either case," Ye Cheng began. "None of the two ideas like me. Zhang hates me and my wits, Bai Qing Mei is mad I broke her heart and hates Li Jing for stealing me away from her. Whereas they struck first and wanted my life. Those ingrates."
"Hmm, the way I see it, they are both in on it. If it is Zhang\'s men, I say we punish them both and make them fear you," Long Lei advised.
"You are right."
"True. This might just be what to do. No need waiting for a confesson form Zhang\'s right hand man. He is his right hand for a reason, right?" Yi Wang Lei asked.
"Yes?"
"Meaning he might not necessarily rat his boss out. So it would be a waste getting information out of him."
"Oh, then pray never to have to experience Fong\'s torturing."
"And why would I want that?"
"You wouldn\'t even want it for your enemy," Long Lei explained.
"It is that terrible?"
"Yes and he doesn\'t have that name for nothing being the number one mafia gang. He is as ruthless as his father when it comes to. One should be careful."
"I see."
RING! RING!
"Hello?"
"He confessed and it is…"
