The World Could Collapse at Any Moment

From Silentium·兔兔榆·815 words

Qin Zu vented his cruelty against the windowsill of the F Group president's office.

Today was his last day working at F Group.

He imagined the day he would become a king—the entire world under his control, himself ageless and deathless, an eternal emperor, adored with supreme reverence.

Lu Yu walked into the F Group president's office.

"Qin Zu, F Group no longer exists. What are you still doing here, clinging to memories?"

"I was waiting for you."

"I was waiting for you too. Because you still owe me over five billion."

Several of Lu Yu's subordinates closed the door to the F Group president's office, holding Qin Zu under house arrest there.

His former dream of kingship had long since become the prison that trapped Qin Zu.

Qin Zu looked haggard and defeated. They had confiscated his phone. Each day they gave him only enough food to keep him alive. He was a prisoner who had lost his freedom.

When Su Die remembered everything from the past, she didn't know how to face Su Mosheng.

She sent Lu Yu a message, asking to meet Qin Zu. She wanted to know what Qin Zu had actually done to her sister.

Lu Yu soon arrived at the apartment building.

"I'll take you there."

"Qin Zu killed Xiao Zhen, but I was the accomplice."

"Qin Zu is already locked up. Once I have solid evidence of his murder, I'll hand him over to the police."

"It's been so many years. Can evidence still be preserved?"

"At least you are a witness from back then. As long as we work at it, we will definitely bring Qin Zu to justice."

The F Group headquarters building stood empty. A torrential rain was falling over Y City today.

"Xiao Die, I'll go with you. I'm afraid Qin Zu will hurt you."

"There are some things I want to ask Qin Zu myself."

Su Die pushed open the door to the F Group president's office. Qin Zu looked like a destitute beggar. He raised his head and looked at Su Die, still maintaining the cold indifference of a "king."

"Why did you hurt Xiao Zhen? She truly cared for you. She wanted to save you."

"I don't need Su Zhen to save me. She was nothing but a pet I toyed with. A failed slave."

Hearing Qin Zu say this, Lu Yu wanted nothing more than to kill him on the spot.

"Lu Yu gege, stay calm. Let me talk to him."

"I can't control my emotions anymore. I don't want to see this disgusting thing either. Let's go."

Su Die took Lu Yu's feelings into consideration, and they left together.

"We need to find evidence as soon as possible."

"Back then, when Qin Zu pushed Xiao Zhen off the building, were those old couple the only ones who saw it? Were there any surveillance cameras nearby?"

"I sent many people to investigate, and the police looked into it too. It was an abandoned factory area. There were no surveillance facilities at all."

"I remember Xiao Zhen had a phone. She recorded her daily life in it. Maybe we can find clues from that phone."

"But Xiao Zhen's belongings are all at Chairwoman Su's house. If you want to get them, you'll have to compromise with Chairwoman Su and become the heir of BR Group."

"For Xiao Zhen, I can give up everything I have—including Mosheng gege."

"Then let's split up. I'll look for other evidence. You find a way to get Xiao Zhen's belongings."

Su Die returned to the apartment building. Su Mosheng was standing at her door, waiting for her.

"You've remembered everything."

"Didn't you lie to me too? What right do you have to criticize me?"

"It's very dangerous for you to cooperate with Lu Yu. Let me handle this."

"You don't want me to become the heir of BR Group. Is it to protect me, or because you like me?"

Su Mosheng could not answer that question.
