Chapter 321 Struggle

One by one, helicopters could be seen flying across the sky. All of them formed a ring encircling the

place from above.

There were a total of around thirty helicopters.

Hou San was dumbfounded.

Even Zhao Tongtong covered her mouth in shock.

Damn! Although Zhao Tongtong grew up in the city too, she had never seen such a grand scene

before!

“Chen Hao, you lied!” Hou San yelled, terrified.

He took the money, and was about to run.

However, bodyguards started descending from the rope ladders hanging from the helicopters.

Hou San was trapped in no time.

“I can’t believe it's you, Hou San. I thought that you wouldn’t dare to come back anymore. I really did

not expect you to come back and still try to extort money from Chen Hao! Aren’t you scared of the CEO

finding out?”

Li Zhenguo walked down, flanked by Tian Long and Di Hu.

He laughed coldly.

It was obvious that they knew each other.

Seeing Li Zhenguo as well as Tian Long and Di Hu, Hou San abolished all plans to run away.

Yes, it was too late to explain. If Li Zhenguo informed the CEO about this, she would never forgive him.

By that time, any chance of him surviving would be out the window.

However, he might still get a chance if he surrendered without putting up a fight.

“Hehehe! If it weren’t for the CEO asking me to leave, I wouldn’t have become like this! Moreover,

Zhenguo, although I helped frame Young Master Chen, I’m still a nice person. You have no idea! Longnovelbin

Shaoyun didn’t plan on just framing Young Master Chen, he also wanted me to knock him out and feed

him aphrodisiacs! That was why I refused. But look! I took the initiative to provide evidence that could

help Young Master Chen clear up the accusations,” Hou San defended cheekily.

“Zhenguo, do you remember when we were as close as brothers, working together under the CEO?

Moreover, I saved your life once! Can’t you let me go? I was a brat back then, but look at what I’ve

become now that I have matured!”

“You still remember that you used to work for the CEO? I thought you had forgotten. As to how we are

going to handle you, it ultimately depends on Young Master Chen!”

Li Zhenguo walked over to Chen Hao’s side.

“Hou San worked under my sister before?”

Chen Hao asked, surprised. Ah, looks like this is why Hou San is so afraid of my sister!

“Yes, Young Master Chen. Back when Miss Chen had just started at Jin Ling City, she was aided by

me, Zhao Zixing as well as Hou Anping, also known as Hou San. We were all just around twenty back

then. However, one day, Hou San got so drunk, he impregnated one of the female workers. Enraged,

Miss Chen fired him.”

Li Zhenguo glanced at Hou San and chuckled coldly.

“So that was what happened! Well, since he gave us the evidence, I won’t dwell on it any longer!”

To be honest, Chen Hao wanted to find some people to beat him to a pulp initially.

But now, Hou San was still fooling around. He even laughed at Chen Hao.

Chen Hao too, didn’t want to reason with someone like him.

“Hmph! I guess you’re lucky after all, Hou San. Just leave the money and go away. I will forgive you

this time!”

Although Li Zhenguo was furious, he also felt somewhat relieved at the same time.

After all, they used to hang out together. Moreover, Hou San did save him once.

He was still afraid that Young Master Chen might snap and finish him.

“I-I-I, I don't want to go!” Hou San refused.

”What do you want?”

“Young Master Chen, look. Since I have nowhere else to go anymore, why don’t you take me in? I

promise I won’t repeat the same mistake again! Young Master Chen, please let me stay by your side!”

Hou San requested.

Yes, when he first met Chen Hao at the hotel, he knew that Chen Hao was the kind of person who was

righteous and fair.

So, he wasn’t kidding when he said those words just now.

Although Long Shaoyun did make him use some dirty tricks to harm Chen Hao, Hou San went behind

his back and did not really cause him any harm.

Firstly, he was afraid of Chen Xiao.

Secondly, he still owed Chen Xiao a debt of gratitude.

He was afraid of coming back. All he wanted was to extort some money before he fled from this place.

In reality, he recorded his conversation with Long Shaoyun to keep an eye on him. If everything went

according to plan and he got his money, the misunderstanding would last for at most a week. However,

by that time, he would have already found a secure place to hide himself and pass the recordings to Li

Zhenguo.

It looked like he had nowhere to run anymore.

Might as well ask Chen Hao to take him in!

“You?”

Chen Hao chuckled bitterly, “It’s fine, I will let you go today. I won’t let my sister investigate this too. You

should just leave!”

Hou San’s sly look made Chen Hao confused. He couldn’t tell whether he was being serious or lying.

“C-C-Come on, Young Master Chen. I will give you a gift. Think of it as a truce! Young Master Chen, I

promise you’ll like it!” Hou San exclaimed.

Chen Hao and Li Zhenguo looked at each other before nodding, “Alright. Show me what you’ve got.”

After finishing, Chen Hao turned around and eyed Qin Ya along with Zhao Tongtong, “General Manager

Li, please assign one of the drivers to send them back!”

His tone sounded cold and distant.

Qin Ya was hoping that Chen Hao would say something more to her, maybe some words of comfort.

However, he said nothing.

When the car came, Chen Hao left without a word.

He did it on purpose.

It was better to be clear about his attitude and intentions anyway. This could prevent possible

misunderstandings in the future.

Qin Ya felt something breaking in her as she watched Chen Hao leave. Is this how it’s going to be

between me and Chen Hao from today onwards? Is he really disappointed in me?

Are we still friends?

Haha, probably not. This must be it.

He just came over for the evidence and saved us while he was at it. I should stop overanalyzing it.

Who even am I to him? How is it possible for Chen Hao to risk himself for me?

Come on, Qin Ya. Stop being stupid. A small matter such as this isn’t worth getting hung up over.

Moreover, Chen Hao already has Su Tongxin. He just wanted to take the chance to make it clear that

there is nothing between me and him, isn’t it obvious?

Qin Ya reminded herself bitterly.

Initially, she still thought that there really was someone who would sacrifice themselves to save her. It

was all lies! Just lies!

When Qin Ya returned home that night, she tossed and turned in her bed before finally drifting off at

midnight.

Around nine in the morning the next day, loud noises from outside her bedroom woke Qin Ya.

“Come on, Xiangnan. You’ve got to find a solution for this! We left the Qin family with you from the start

anyway. You have the responsibility to look after us! If not, the family won’t be able to be maintained

any longer!”

Qin Ya’s parents were back.

There were also a few elder relatives that came over.

They were discussing how to counter the Long family as well as Yan Jing’s Qin family.

Back then, due to some matters, Qin Xiangnan led the few of them to leave the family in a fit of rage.

However, now, the enterprise that all of them worked to build together couldn’t be maintained anymore.

Naturally, he had to shoulder the responsibility.

“There’s still no progression between Qin Ya and the Long family’s third young master! This isn’t good!

Today, Long Shaoyun’s birthday party will be held at Hot Spring Villa. He had specifically asked for Qin

Ya to attend it with him. He’s making it clear that he wants Qin Ya to accept his wedding proposal!” the

adults commented.

“Alright, alright. I’m sure that all of you know what happened to Qin Ya yesterday. That Young Master

Long didn’t even reach out to help her! She’s resting now but, sigh, she doesn't deserve this!”

Qin Xiangnan and the others rushed home right before dawn. After all, his daughter was almost

kidnapped. It was a serious matter.

Just as everyone was anxiously discussing a solution, the door opened.

Qin Ya walked out with a somber expression, “Mom, Dad, don’t be worried! I’ll go today!”
