420 Tactful Rejection
Zhou Ling smiled lightly and continued, “I almost let you fool me again! You haven’t said if you want to go to the collaboration. You have to give me a definite answer today!”
As he spoke, he glanced at his cell phone. Seeing that he was running out of time, he suggested anxiously, “How about this? Stay behind after class. I want to talk to you!”
As Teacher Zhou spoke, he ignored Su Qing’s response and walked back to the podium. Before the bell rang, he stood back in the middle of the podium!
Su Qing looked at his back helplessly. After pursing her lips slightly, she turned to look at her two good friends, who had been looking at her.
!!
Wu Mu tilted her head slightly and shrugged, indicating that she was helpless against Teacher Zhou’s willful and domineering actions!
Yuan Yang gave Su Qing a look that said, “Take care.” He turned around and looked at the podium in front of him, acting like he was very studious.
Su Qing retracted her gaze, feeling that she shouldn’t have too high hopes for these two bad friends who only knew how to watch the show. She thought about what she had to do next and already had a plan.
She wanted to investigate the Yan family’s assassination, the attack on Huo Qi, and the fact that she was about to enter the production team of Nan An. These things were already complicated enough, and Su Qing didn’t want to find anything else to do.
What Su Qing didn’t know now was how much trouble she would cause herself when she rejected the other party again.
In the Huo family’s underground prison.
The butler, Huo Ming, who was walking in front of his young master, led Huo Qi respectfully to the room where the assassin was detained yesterday. As he walked, he reported what he had interrogated last night. “These killers are all from an assassin training organization called Sky Splitter in Namphan. Their goal this time is to assassinate Miss Su or the closest person to her!”
“This leader of the assassins is quite tough. Our brothers have already used all the torture devices on him, so he only revealed this information slightly! He’s still hanging on by a thread now. If it’s any later, I’m worried that he won’t be able to make it, so I wanted you to come over and interrogate him one last time!”
Huo Qi strode beside Huo Ming. After hearing his report, he said calmly, “Well done! If the other party really relented so easily, they wouldn’t be Sky Splitter’s killers! Is the information he gave here? Is there anything else? For example, where their nest is? How many people does Sky Splitter have now? What’s their boss’s name, and why does he have to assassinate Qingqing?”
When Huo Ming heard this, he shook his head and replied, “Young Master, he didn’t answer any of the questions you asked. He just picked up a few things that we all know and repeatedly explained them. He just wanted to avoid being whipped!”
Huo Qi frowned slightly. After taking a deep breath, he nodded and replied, “I understand. Huo Feng has already set off for Namphan this morning. You’ll work for me today! I want you to keep this matter a secret from Dad and Old Master first. Do you understand?”
When Huo Ming heard his young master’s serious tone, he immediately replied respectfully, “Yes, Young Master!”
As the right-hand assistant of the previous head of the Huo family, Huo Jue, Huo Ming was an extremely smart and wise person. His intelligence surpassed Huo Feng by a mile.
The Huo family’s underground prison covered a very wide area. When Huo Ming led Huo Qi to a secret room, he gestured for his subordinate to open the door.
Huo Qi walked into the room that was filled with the smell of blood and frowned slightly. When he saw the motionless figure lying in the corner, he asked, “Has the doctor seen him?”
When the subordinate in the room heard this, he immediately replied respectfully, “Yes, Young Master. His injuries are too serious. If he’s not transferred out immediately, he might not be able to live past this afternoon!”
“Pull him over and splash him awake,” Huo Qi instructed expressionlessly. He turned around and sat down on a chair, then casually took out a cigarette and lit it.
When he spat out the first smoke ring, the assassin leader had already been pulled up. His limbs were weak, as though he was already dead!
