Chapter 960 Market Price
twist steel; there was no way anyone without extraordinary arm, leg, waist strength, or an explosive burst of power could’ve done what Wang Zheng just did."Because I ate spinach when I was little," s...Chapter 960 Market Price
"No thinking, just answer. Say the market price." Wang Zheng didn't want to give Qiao Shanxing any chance to react.
"Ten billion," Qiao Shanxing said without hesitation.
In fact, in the eyes of Young Master Qiao, his life was worth much more than ten billion; this wasn't something that money could measure. Its value would be immeasurable even if it were priceless.
"Beautiful."
Wang Zheng tore a piece of paper from his notebook and wrote down the number "ten billion" on it. Then, he handed it to Qiao Shanxing and said, "This is an IOU for ten billion. Sign your name, or if you're unable to do so because of your injury, leave your fingerprint."
Hearing this, Qiao Shanxing almost vomited blood.
"What's the matter Do you want to deny it You said 'ten billion' yourself. Not a cent less." Wang Zheng had an extremely sinister expression full of fear: "I'm glad you didn't say your life is worth only one dollar."
Qiao Shanxing helplessly shook his head; he wasn't ungrateful. He took the IOU from Wang Zheng and signed his name briskly.
Although ten billion was indeed a large sum, the other party had saved his life, so he had to repay them somehow. Moreover, with Qiao Shanxing's financial means, it wouldn't be an issue for him to pay this amount.
"That's what I like! This is truly the style of the Great Young Master from the Qiao Family!" Wang Zheng smiled as he put the IOU in his shirt pocket. "Although I don’t have a great desire for money, extorting rich people feels extremely satisfying."
Qiao Shanxing felt like vomiting blood; what kind of freak was this person who had so many twisted tastes that ordinary people couldn't understand!
"Alright, now we can talk about how to deal with our common opponent." Wang Zheng was in an excellent mood upon receiving such a large sum of money right after arriving in Hong Kong.
"Common opponent" Qiao Shanxing gave a cold laugh: "I don't even have common language with you. What common opponents could we possibly have"
"What do you think then" Wang Zheng asked: "Don’t you want to find out who’s behind this attempt on your life"
Qiao Shanxing lowered his eyelids; clearly, he too wanted to know the final outcome. Even though deep in his heart he was already suspicious of someone, it hadn't been confirmed.
"So let's cooperate," Wang Zheng chuckled, his goal achieved.
"I haven’t said I want to cooperate with you." Qiao Shanxing’s eyes were fixed on the sheet.
"You’ll have to whether you like it or not. This is your only option," Wang Zheng seemed indifferent to Qiao Shanxing's attitude.
"While I do care who is harming me, what concerns me even more is Qiao Jing." Qiao Shanxing said.
In the view of this eldest son of the Qiao family, Qiao Jing, who had returned after hiding for over a decade, was truly the most dangerous one. Regardless of who in the current Qiao family wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of him, he would first concentrate his efforts on dealing with Qiao Jing and then address internal issues within the Qiao family. Those who advocated that external threats must be dealt with only after internal stability was achieved had their own ulterior motives.
Qiao Shanxing knew very well how his father treated his uncle in the past; it was a despicable conspiracy. With this return, Qiao Jing surely investigated everything thoroughly. His father was her father’s murderer. Given such deep hatred and grievance, could Qiao Jing possibly not seek revenge
After so many years of hiding and biding her time, once the storm arrived, it would uproot the entire Qiao family compound. Even if Qiao Chengying had committed acts that defied justice in the past, he was still Qiao Shanxing’s father. And these actions benefited him directly. He definitely wouldn’t sit idly by. When the Qiao family faced its most turbulent time, Qiao Jing would be the greatest enemy.
If Qiao Jing gained power and used what happened in the past as an excuse to eliminate his own father, Qiao Shanxing absolutely couldn't allow that situation to occur. Moreover, if it were to come to that point, he himself wouldn't have a place to stand either.
More than a decade ago, Qiao Jing's methods were already terrifying enough to make people shudder; after so many years, who could predict how high she might rise!
Hearing Qiao Shanxing’s words, Wang Zheng instantly understood his true intentions: "Actually, there are some things that can't be resolved. You and Qiao Jing are destined to be enemies. However, since I am on Qiao Jing's side, we won’t become friends either."
"Then what do you plan to do Kill me" Qiao Shanxing lowered his eyes again: "It seems like that’s a piece of cake for you."
"I don't intend to kill you; I just want you to stay here and receive treatment for a few days."
"Imprisoning me"
"Imprisoning No, no, that’s not quite it," Wang Zheng chuckled in an extremely malicious manner: "In this hospital room, you’ll witness the most intriguing and dramatic family conflicts in the world. I promise."
As one of the wisest young men in the Qiao family, if Qiao Shanxing were to be controlled, then the entire Qiao family would crumble into chaos and wouldn't form an effective fighting force; therefore, Qiao Jing and Wang Zheng would have it much easier.
Hearing this, Qiao Shanxing seemed somewhat disdainful: "All of that hinges on one thing—whether you can really keep me here."
"You doubt my ability to hold onto you" Wang Zheng seemed to have heard an extremely amusing joke as he called out towards the door: “Mitsui Junichi, Lin Xijue, both of you come in.”
Lin Xijue still had his insignificant-looking flattop hairstyle; however, after Wang Zheng’s bloody training sessions, he now exuded a more restrained brilliance. Conversely, Mitsui Junichi was exactly the opposite: clutching an island country samurai long sword and displaying blatant sharpness, he resembled a blade in every way.
Who would have thought that when Wang Zheng came to Hong Kong, he actually brought these two godlike killers with him.
"Both of you stay here and keep watch. If the big young master Qiao dares to take even one step out from this room, break his legs."
"Do you remember"
"I remember."
Wang Zheng paused for a moment and then said, "And I said the third leg."
Qiao Shanxing instinctively looked down at his groin area, feeling a chilly breeze blowing there.
"Of course, if you guys can't keep an eye on him, I'll make use of your third leg," Wang Zheng said with ill intent.
Before leaving the room, Wang Zheng told Qiao Shanxing, "I know how much hope you've placed in me. Don't worry; I won't let you down. The upcoming events will be so thrilling that you can't even imagine."
"I haven't placed any hopes on you at all, only disgust," Qiao Shanxing couldn't bear Wang Zheng's choice of words anymore. How could this guy say such disgusting things
"Whether it disgusts me or not is irrelevant to me," Wang Zheng blinked his eyes: "But I know if you make me unhappy, I will do something even more disgusting to you."
Seeing Wang Zheng's mischievous gaze, Qiao Shanxing couldn't help but shiver.
"Also, don’t count on your father coming with reinforcements to save you. That won’t happen," Wang Zheng said and then left the room.
Qiao Shanxing was shaken to his core! He immediately fell into deep silence!ly, "I also only used 80% of my strength; otherwise, I would have definitely torn off your bra just now."“Then go ahead and try!” As soon as Katie finished speaking, she suddenly started moving. Her f...
