Chapter 2146 - 2135: The Real Culprit Revealed
Tang Xiaoyue was very clear, this was just a gentle method employed by her grandfather.Even if Zheng Tianhang knew about this, his final fate would be house arrest in Fusang until the Zheng Family's direct line successfully seized the assets.
"I've finally become the kind of person I hate the most."
Tang Xiaoyue sighed, unable to stop herself from recalling the extermination of the Zheng Family, "Who could have such grand gestures?"
Unwittingly, a familiar face appeared in her mind again.
Ever since the Zheng Family's direct lineage was murdered, Tang Xiaoyue often thought about the owner of this face.
Although she was very unwilling to believe that he did it.
But the familiar plot and the information hinted by the bodyguards all suggested to Tang Xiaoyue that she wasn't mistaken.
After buying off Zheng Tianhang's bodyguards, Tang Xiaoyue learned something.
Besides the visible bodyguards around, Zheng Tianhang had a team of bodyguards hidden in the shadows.
However, these bodyguards mysteriously disappeared in Fusang.
Moreover, the time of disappearance happened to coincide with the night the quarter-finals ended, the same night they received orders.
Two days later, news broke of Zheng Tianhang's grandfather dying suddenly of a heart attack.
In the three days that followed, the Zheng Family seemed to be cursed with death, and misfortunes continued to occur.
Some fell to their deaths at sea, some died from electrocution, one stepped off and fell to their death from the stairs...
The causes of death were varied, all were accidental deaths.
Upon knowing this, Tang Xiaoyue repeatedly sent out people in hopes of finding Zheng Tianhang and the bodyguards hiding in the shadows but disappeared.
But these people seemed to vanish into thin air, even Zheng Tianhang couldn't be contacted.
"Ning Fan, did you really do this?"
Thinking of that handsome face, sometimes beaming, sometimes cold and ruthless.
For a moment, Tang Xiaoyue didn't know which face was his true self.
"If you did do it, then..."
In recent days, Tang Xiaoyue had been troubled by this matter.
To destroy an entire family over just a dispute seemed like the most insane behavior.
But on second thought, Zheng Tianhang was the first to provoke, vengeful and despicable, secretly acting on that very night.
If Zheng Tianhang had succeeded that night, one could imagine Ning Fan's fate, the number of people who were tortured to death by him was not just one or two.
Thinking of these matters, Tang Xiaoyue suddenly found clarity.
Without the sheltering of Zheng Family members, the crimes he committed, in a place like Hong Kong Island without the death penalty, he would have long been sentenced to life without parole.
The Zheng Family's plight was well-deserved, not worth any sympathy.
"Now we sympathize with the Zheng Family, but who sympathizes with those poor victims."
Tang Xiaoyue, not one to be conventional, even felt Ning Fan was doing a public service by removing harm.
"What nonsense am I thinking? Why assume he did it? The Zheng Family has offended countless people over the years. Until the truth is revealed, it's best not to speculate."
Tang Xiaoyue rubbed her face, pushing aside her distracting thoughts.
On her way back to her room, Tang Xiaoyue suddenly stopped, pondering to herself, "Did I hear it wrong?"
Upon careful recall, Tang Xiaoyue's expression became serious, confirming there was no auditory hallucination; she truly heard a muffled sound.
The sound was faint, quiet even in the silent hallway, ordinary people wouldn't be able to hear it.
But Tang Xiaoyue was no ordinary person, having practiced Dice Listening Technique in her youth, her ears soaked in special medicine, thus her hearing was extraordinarily sensitive, far surpassing that of ordinary people.
"The sound seems to be coming from Zheng Tianhang's room."
Listening for a moment, Tang Xiaoyue's expression changed, realizing something had happened.
At this time, Zheng Tianhang should be in his room, frolicking with those women, it was impossible for no sound to come out.
Just as Tang Xiaoyue was about to notify the bodyguards, another sentence from inside made her hesitate.
"This is the last one."
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoyue instinctively covered her mouth, not daring to breathe loudly, a thunderclap exploded in her mind, "Could they be the culprits behind the Zheng Family's demise?"
Tang Xiaoyue nervously pricked up her ears, continuing to listen to what followed.
"At dawn we'll leave Fusang."
"Are we not staying here until the Young Master returns?"
"No need. The Young Mistress's safety is paramount."
"I hope the Young Master is blessed."
With a soft snap, a stern reprimanding voice followed, "An Liu, you talk too much."
"An Liu admits fault, willing to accept punishment."
"We'll talk there… There's an extra breath, not right! Someone's here."
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoyue shivered, ready to escape when she suddenly found the door had opened a crack, and a ghostly black shadow drifted out from it.
Just as Tang Xiaoyue was about to scream, she found her mouth already covered, and then she felt weightless.
Her vision blurred for a few seconds; when it cleared again, she saw several black shadows.
The shadows seemed to merge with the darkness, apart from general outlines, nothing else could be seen.
"Kill!"
Upon hearing that floating phrase, Tang Xiaoyue's body began to tremble violently; she never thought the opponent's killing intent was so heavy.
"Wait… It's her."
"It really is her."
"Let's forget it then."
Listening to these inexplicable words, just as Tang Xiaoyue was pondering their meaning, she heard a chilling voice, "Miss Tang, you'd better forget tonight. Hope you don't make things difficult for us."
Tang Xiaoyue summoned her courage to speak softly, "You know me?"
"Yes."
As the words fell, in the terrified eyes of Tang Xiaoyue, the speaker slowly vanished.
When she snapped back to reality, she discovered all the shadows in the room had disappeared.
"Are they human or ghosts?"
Just as Tang Xiaoyue was overwhelmed with terror, she suddenly heard someone whispering by her ear, "Miss Tang, don't make things difficult for us."
Startled by the voice so close, Tang Xiaoyue instinctively dodged to the side, but there was no one in the room now.
Recalling that last sentence, Tang Xiaoyue felt chilled, the warning from the opponent was very clear.
Standing in the dark room, Tang Xiaoyue glanced with the backlight of her phone, hurriedly rushing out of the room.
Before long, under Tang Xiaoyue's insistence, Tang Tianxing came alone to the place.
"Grandfather, what should we do now?"
"Tell me everything that happened earlier, word for word."
Tang Tianxing's expression was calm, but his slightly trembling fingers betrayed his inner unease.
Ever since the Mary incident, fearing a repeat, Tang Tianxing had the hotel surrounded densely.
Yet despite this, the opponent still managed to stealthily infiltrate and conduct an assassination.
If it weren't for Tang Xiaoyue's exceptional hearing, no one would have discovered this matter.
Since the opponent could silently kill Zheng Tianhang, they could use the same method against him.
