Chapter 424

ossed around by Huo Mingzheng, she felt drained. Her vision started to blur, and she felt like she was going to faint.It seems she had annoyed him, Huo Mingzheng left her alone on the sofa. She slumpe...Li Qin's heart skipped a beat. She pushed away Qi Ce and sat up, "What are you going to do"

She knew well that Qi Ce was a man of his word. When she told him about what Lu Youguang had done to her, those beastly acts, he promised her he would take Lu Youguang's life. Sure enough, soon after, she heard news of Lu Youguang's death.

At that moment, she knew Qi Ce was ruthless and merciless. He could take a person's life with a single hand.

Qi Ce's eyes flashed slightly. She was so anxious, could it be that she was afraid he would get into trouble Did she still want to marry Huo Mingzheng

He said gloomily, "Aren't you going to avenge Old Master Huo Shouldn't you be happy that I did this"

Li Qin tightly clenched her fingers, her eyes bloodshot, and her lips trembled visibly as she gritted her teeth, "What did you do"

She vaguely guessed something, her whole body was trembling, a chill crawled from her bones through every inch of her limbs.

Qi Ce looked into her eyes, his voice soft and measured, "I gave him a slow-acting poison."

"You're crazy!"

Li Qin raised her voice, her face turning even paler than before.

How could Old Master Huo die at this time

Qi Ce suddenly grabbed her shoulders and questioned her, "Don't you want to see him dead As long as he dies, you won't have to continue pretending to be by Huo Mingzheng's side. You also wouldn't have to marry him and steal Huo Shi's secrets to ruin the company. What I do can achieve everything in one step and save us a lot of time!"

"Of course I want to see him dead," Li Qin said, her brows furrowed and eyes red. "If it wasn't for him, my family wouldn't be ruined, I wouldn't have been... by Lu Youguang..."

She clenched her teeth, which trembled uncontrollably, and tears streamed down her face.

But, but......

This is not the time, this juncture, he cannot die!

If Old Master Huo died, she would have no more excuse to delay. Qi Ce would definitely stop her, and then she wouldn't be able to marry A Zheng.

No, she went to so much trouble to come back to Nancheng and be with Aze. She wouldn't give up just like that.

She grabbed Qi Ce's hand, her nails digging into his flesh, "When did you poison me"

"A few days ago."

Qi Ce looked into her eyes, his heart whispering, "The very day you lied to me."

He narrowed his eyes, his voice a soft whisper, "Do you want to tell Huo Mingzheng"

Li Qin's hand froze, and Qi Ce continued, "Xiao Qin, do you know the consequences of telling A Zheng Do you understand"

Tell Huo Mingzheng that if Huo Mingzheng goes with the flow, he will find out about her, and then all those things about her will be exposed.

But she didn't want to leave Azheng.

She suddenly realized that this was Qi Ce testing her. By poisoning Old Master Huo, he had pushed her into a dead end, forcing her to make a choice.

One step forward means leaving the city with him, one step back means everything is exposed.

It seems Qizhe has really started to doubt her motives. He has too much information about her, effectively holding her life and future in his hands.

Unknowingly, under the silent infiltration, Qi Ce was the one who could destroy her at any time.

His submission, it turned out, was also his conquest.

Realizing this, her entire being turned as cold as ice.

She was backed into a corner.

Unless....e suitable than me."The manager and the clerk carefully carried the dress out. As they passed Huo Mingzheng, the man casually pointed at Fu Yan, "Try it on for her."Even though Shen Wei was unwilling...
