Chapter 564 Planning To Cut The Wings...
Xi Cheng realized Zhang Wei was not scared of anything as he worried more about Ming Rusheng than himself, and making him enemy was not a good deal at the moment.
"I was just kidding, my friend. I don't plan to harm Lu Qiang, but there is someone who wants to harm him." Xi Cheng explained.
"Who?" Zhang Wei asked curiously.
"I told you before. Someone who is from far away and I wonder what Lu Family has done to them that they want to harm Lu Qiang."
"How do you know about it?" Zhang Wei countered.
"They approached me knowing my past with Lu Qiang," Zhang Wei replied.
"You can do anything if it's limited to business but I won't side with any harm done to the person." Zhang Wei made himself clear.
"I can't guarantee you about it, as that person is too powerful for me to take a decision on my own. If he wants to hurt Lu Qiang, I can't do anything and somewhere I would be happy if he does so." There was an evil grin on Xi Cheng's lips.
"Right! As killing a person is nothing new for you, Xi Cheng, but I am warning you to not hurt Lu Qiang." Zhang Wei looked serious.
"Why so sudden change of heart and sympathy for him? Did you forget whose son he is?"
"I told you, I just care about new generations and we should forget about our old hatred."
"Love for your nephew sure changed you, Zhang Wei."
Mentioning of Ming Rusheng clicked something and Zhang Wei asked, "Think whatever you want. Is Ming Rusheng aware of them and you are trying to harm Lu Qiang?"
"Not yet, but if he sides with me, then it would be easy." Xi Cheng declared.
"Don't you dare to do it. It's my warning to you." Zhang Wei ventured.
"I won't but let's see if his love for a woman brings him to me. If it does, then you can't blame me. Stop him if you can." Xi Cheng made it clear and warned too.
"I will do my best. He won't be like his uncle and that's the promise I have made to myself. You just stop provoking him."
Saying coldly, Zhang Wei left the room while Xi Cheng had an evil smile on his face.
"If he wants any help from me, then I can't say no as I am one generous person when it comes to helping someone." He mumbled to himself.
Just then, Xi Cheng's assistant came to him. "Boss, I got a call from the secretary of Mr. Victor Magnus. He is coming to China next week."
Hearing it, the evil smile on Xi Cheng's lips became scarier. "Seems like soon I can get rid of him."
Xi Cheng went home late at night. When he reached the living room, he remembered his step-mother would be out of the city for a few days and she might have left in the evening. Something flashed in his mind and he called the servant who was in the living room to attend Xi Cheng.
"Did my step-mother left?" Xi Cheng asked.
"Yes, sir," the servant replied.
"I should get a look at what my sister is doing as she must have felt lonely." Saying, Xi Cheng was about to go towards the staircase, but the servant stopped him.
"Sir, young miss is not home."
The expressions on his face turned cold. "Where is she?"
"In the evening, doctor Jiang Yang came and asked madam if he can take young miss with him as she was going away from home."
"And?"
"And madam said it's up to the young miss to decide."
"Your young miss must be ready to go with him." Xi Cheng concluded..
The servant nodded. "When madam asked her, young miss said she wanted to go with him."
"Your madam is giving too much freedom to your young miss." Xi Cheng commented.
Hearing it, the servant couldn't say anything and kept quiet.
Xi Cheng went to his room. "It seems like I need to cut both of their wings first. Soon… soon I will cut one wing, then I will see how they can fly."
There was a darkness in his eyes. Taking out his jacket, Xi Cheng went to the wardrobe and pulled out one file from the safe in his wardrobe. He looked at the file for a while and opened it.
"Lu Qiang, this secret of mine won't ever come out and for that, I need to send you far away. It's unfortunate that you got to know about it or I wouldn't be this much eager to get rid of you. I was quiet for a long time just because you know about it, but it's enough now."
He closed the file and spoke again with the mischievous smile on his face. "Even if I hate you, I would be thankful that you never went back on your words and told no one about it and sadly this secret will die with you now."
Xi Cheng kept the file back in the safe and pulled out a picture. It was Nixxxie's picture and it looked like it was just a year old picture.
"Little sister, when will you understand me, huh? When I think about you, I feel like exposing this file to the world but what can I do, money and power is important for me. If I had no money and power, I would be nobody and it would only increase the distance between you and me."
Closing his eyes to let out a deep sigh, he spoke, "Doctor Jiang Yang, you should better behave or you will end up like your brother-in-law."
Xi Cheng's mind was working on its evil way and so many things around were adding fuel to it. The sad thing was, only one person was going to bear the loss to protect his loved ones.
------
The same night… Jiang residence…
Jiang Yang and Nixxxie entered the home, with Jiang Yang carrying one luggage bag and Nixxxie following him.
"Welcome to my home."
"Thank you!"
Nixxxie looked around. She had been here before, but this time it felt different. At that time, she was there knowing nothing and this time she was there on her own will. She felt butterflies in her heart to think she would be with Jiang Yang alone in his home.
