Humans are naturally evil, and selfishness is innate. When you realize that all you have given is not recognized, no matter how strong your familial love was, everything could change.
Zhang-Shu’s pupils dilated when he heard what Huo Ming Chen said, and he stared at the ticking clock on the wall, eyes full of realization and fear for his upcoming death. He was visibly shaken, but he was still hesitating inside. But Huo Ming Chen had no more patience and stood up from his seat saying,
“Rest for a good long time, perhaps…… this will be our last meeting.”
He turned away towards the door,
One step, two steps, three steps……
“Wait–!”
A sound rang out behind him. After Zhang-Shu called the word out, his entire body was like a popped balloon, visibly shrunken down. Huo Ming Chen’s mouth tugged up slightly and he stopped his footsteps.
As he could get that recording, it naturally meant that the Zhang Zhi Qiang couple was in his hands. How could they be coming over? Zhang-Shu has a timid yet ambitious heart to cause harm for greed, but he was certainly not very bright.
Huo Ming Chen walked straight out of the hospital in plain sight, as if he did not care whether there was any surveillance on him.
Chen Lian Dong was going to see if the Zhang Zhi Qiang couple came to pick up Zhang-Shu today. Who knew that he would see Huo Ming Chen walk out of the hospital, and his heart instantly froze up. He quickly dialed a number, but no one picked up.
His face changed, and he couldn’t help but be suspicious and start to overthink things. Out of other options, he could only notify Huo Yuan Guang.
“It should only be a coincidence, Zhang Zhi Qiang originally was not reliable…..”
Huo Ming Cheng was still treating him with respect, and Huo Yuan Guang did not think he leaked anything. But underneath the surface, he was a cautious and vicious person, preferring to kill everything than to let anything slip by. Otherwise, there would be no end to his sleepless nights.
“If they aren’t coming, then you go. You will have no end to your choice of benefits if you finish this job.”
Chen Lian Dong almost dropped his phone. It was one thing for him to be the middleman to an assassination plan, but that was only as a middleman. He just needed to be the bridge for the money and the people. If he came under investigation, it’d be easy to wash the crime off of him. But to do it himself is another thing. If things go south, Huo Yuan Guang can walk away scotch free, but the one who’s going to suffer is him!
He broke out in a cold sweat, feeling that he has boarded a pirate ship, one that you can’t get off of and stuttered out,
“Chairman…… I….. I can’t…… Why don’t I go find, find someone else……”
“I think you are thinking of my precious baby.”
Huo Ming Chen was driving his car on his end, Lu Qi’s driving the car on his end, no one losing to the other.1
Notes:
*1 “Driving the car” or starting the car is a slang phrase that is meant to say starting sex or something related to sexual intercourse. It’s usually associated with a more knowledgeable person “driving the car”, teaching the other person, or making them enjoy/understand sex. In this way, it’s kind of like … slang that hints towards sex, or like Huo Ming Chen is driving his physical car, Lu Qi is starting the metaphorical car ride for/towards sex. And the author is referring to that for them to slow down for the ride.
Also a little tidbit for the title: you can take it as like a play on words of “like father like son/like mother like daughter”, but more in reference that they get along well(one following the other).
