Chapter 286: The Price They Owe

~6 min read 1,112 words

Huang Zhengming was truly furious; he sincerely begged everyone to forgive him, yet these people actually all refused his request.

In a fit of anger, he suddenly had a knife in his hand.

He came with a surging momentum.

"What did you say?"

"We've been friends for so many years; why are you taking their side?"

"You people, why must you insist on comparing? Do you really think it's fine to drive me to a dead end?"

"Are you idiots! If you're not idiots, how could you do such an ignorant thing?" He was unconvinced, and because he suddenly rushed forward, the knife was already at the man's throat.

These things happened too suddenly; he didn't have time to react. By the time he reacted, it was already a bit too late.

The people around were all frightened.

I guess they also didn't expect him to suddenly pull this stunt.

Is he crazy?

A group of people were scared.

They were terrified.

"Don't act recklessly!"

Everyone tried to persuade him.

"If there's something, let's sit down and talk properly; there's no need for this!"

"Exactly, if there's something, sit down and talk properly; please don't do anything that harms yourself!"

"What's wrong with you, guy? I feel like you've become neither human nor ghost lately, and you get furious over this thing at the drop of a hat."

"Calm down!"

Everyone was urging him.

But Huang Zhengming had already lost his reason.

He refused to accept it.

"Let me calm down? How have you treated me? I've already begged you like this, almost kneeling; why won't you let me go?"

"Must you really drive me to death?"

"You people, if something really happens to me, I'm sure this matter is definitely related to you!"

"Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"

Huang Zhengming was completely possessed.

Having lost his reason, he didn't even know what he was doing.

He was like a madman, constantly doing crazy things; his behavior was so bad it's not even worth mentioning!

He was just acting wildly!

Friends for many years, and it ended up like this.

That friend simply gave up caring.

"If you have the guts, attack! If not, put down the knife in your hand."

"Also, don't try to pull this in front of me; what kind of act is this? Don't I know? You can fool others, but do you really think you can fool me with this opportunity? What are you thinking?"

The man was also provoked.

He never expected the other side to act like this!

Look at him now—what has he become?

Huang Zhengming froze completely.

The result was somewhat beyond his expectation; he didn't expect the other side to answer so coldly and mercilessly, leaving him speechless and unable to refute.

Did he finally let go?

Overwhelmed by emotion, he finally burst into tears.

The frightening scene finally stopped.

Just now, everyone was really frightened!

After all.

What's the difference between that person just now and Feng?

Fortunately.

He hasn't completely lost his reason.

He said resentfully, "Why treat me like this? You shouldn't be doing this!"

"I clearly wanted to get along with you, but you……" "That's going too far!"

"You really are going too far!"

He wept, continually describing his fear.

That pitiful sight touched everyone's hearts a little, but thinking of how he had just acted like a madman, rushing forward to attack them, no one could feel any sympathy for him.

He deserved it!

A group of people subdued him.

"What are you pretending?"

"Isn't your current situation entirely your own doing? You didn't consider our feelings before doing these things; when the company was almost bankrupt and problems arose, you came begging us? I just want to ask, where do you get the nerve to ask this?"

"Don't you find yourself disgusting and ill-omened? Seeing you, I find you utterly repulsive! Moreover, I think our friendship should end from now on."

"Me too—I don't want to be foolishly fooled by you, nor do I want any further involvement. Let's leave it at that."

"From now on, you won't be the Chairman of our company. Frankly, for the company's future development, someone like you should just get lost!"

"!"

…

The friendship of the past, in the foolish actions of some people, he bit by bit destroyed their relationship entirely.

Nowadays, no one wants to have any involvement with him.

Everyone glanced at him, and in their eyes was undisguised contempt.

He's done for!

In this life, he's basically completely ruined.

They didn't call the police, but Huang Zhengming's situation is no better.

When Jiang Cheng received this news, he was quite surprised.

According to his investigation results, Huang Zhengming had been friends with these people for years; he originally thought they would let him off this once.

Although they did indeed let him go afterward, but…

I heard he was directly impeached.

Afterward, he is no longer the chairman of this company.

Moreover, the years of friendship from the past, because of his messing up, have also been utterly ruined by his efforts.

He's doomed.

He himself destroyed their brotherly bond.

Jiang Cheng, upon hearing this, was still in a decent mood.

Perhaps he had long anticipated such an event; Jiang Cheng merely smiled.

His smile was somewhat inexplicable.

Su Manyao froze.

He looked at her with a puzzled expression: "What are you doing? You were fine, why are you smiling so inexplicably?"

"Really?" Jiang Cheng turned his head back with a smiling squint: "Just now I got some good news; do you want to hear it?"

Su Manyao's eyes suddenly brightened.

"Of course!" He had a strong premonition that the matter might be related to Huang Zhengming.

He was all excited.

"Will you tell me properly?"

"Okay."

"The latest news just now is that Huang Zhengming has been impeached by his company; he has now been removed from office!"

"Including his brotherly ties, those people have all severed relations with him; no one wants to have any involvement with him anymore."

"One could say this time he lifted a rock only to drop it on his own foot." Jiang Cheng couldn't help but burst into laughter; his mood was still quite good.

At that moment, Su Manyao, upon hearing this, instantly became happy.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Su Manyao's eyes sparkled; his mood was quite good.

"I knew it! All good things keep coming our way." Su Manyao's face broke into an unstoppable smile.

Is this not a case of evil meeting evil retribution? That person ultimately paid the full price for what he had done! (End of chapter)
