Chapter 402: Happy Sufferings
The old man froze but he listened for a second.
Seeing that she had his attention, the calm woman sighed. "Firstly, Kang Zhi is alive and well."
Hearing this, the old man's face twisted. "I-impossible."
As soon as he spoke, the woman frowned hard and then she coldly said. "Please do not interrupt me Elder Qiao."
After saying this, the old man stopped speaking, but it wasn't because he wanted to but instead it was because he could no longer feel his tongue and his joints began to burn.
"Secondly, you messed with the wrong people. Today, your life ends." As she said this, the woman raised her hand to reveal the needle in her hand. "I've just injected you with a slow acting drug. At first the drug makes you lose control of your sense and then slowly you will die. How slow will depend on you."
After saying this, the woman wiped the serynge with a small handkerchief to remove her prints and then she threw it into the trash.
The woman then headed to the door but before leaving, she turned and smiled at the man and said, "Happy sufferings"
She then left the room inconspicuously. The woman then walked down the hall as anyone would.
Just then, a group of doctors ran passed her. As they did, she heard them say.
"Qiao Qingqing has died. We must inform Elder Qiao!"
Hearing this, The woman stopped dead in her tracks. Today was an inauspicious day for the Qiao's...
Meanwhile, back at the Kang Manor, Hearing what Kang Jun had said and imagining the situation in her mind, Qiao Lan felt something snap in her heart but it wasn't until her families trusted doctor sent her a message confirming that her mother had died and that Elder Qiao was in critical condition that the situation had hit her. Qiao Lan felt her heart squeeze and then, tears suddenly began to fall from her eyes.
Looking at this, Kang Nianxi panicked. Seeing her tears, Kang Nianxi turned to Kang Jun and said,
"Why did you have to kill him!"
Kang Nianxi didn't feel bad for the old man but since he was Qiao Lan's grandfather. He was the only few family she had had...
Even Kang Zhi felt bad for Qiao Lan at that moment despite Elder Qiao being the reason for his accident.
Hearing Kang Nianxi's anger, Kang Jun didn't discount him. He understood where the man was coming from but still... Elder Qiao was too much of a lose cannon to be allowed to live mostly when he found out that what had happened with Qiao Qingqing involved Kang Jun and Lu AnLing.
"It's what he deserves. On the contrary, it's probably a merciful death. That man tried to kill both his son in law, Su Bai, and his grandson in law. And he succeeded in killing one." Kang Liang almost screamed. His hate for the Qiao's was real, and so, hearing that Elder Qiao was getting What he deserved, Kang Liang felt exalted.
Hearing Kang Liang say this, Kang Nianxi turned to the broken Qiao Lan who had suddenly paused from crying and then back to Kang Liang.
Kang Nianxi was going to scold Kang Liang but suddenly, Qiao Lan spoke through a sob.
"What did you say? My grandfather killed who...?" Qiao Lan was already broken as she said this, and her eyes were dark and stormy.
Seeing her look, Kang Liang who had no remorse for the girls frowned. "Don't tell me you didn't know, your precious grandfather murdered your father because he cheated on your mother."
'With mine...' Kang Liang wanted to say but he didn't dare.
Hearing what Kang Liang had said, Qiao Lan felt disgusted in the Qiao blood in her veins. She felt disturbed that she had been raised by her grandfather who always acted so proud and high and mighty.
She remembered the times she had cried to her grandfather and mother that she missed her father and what had she been told...? They said that Su Bai had abandoned her and her mother... but in truth, he had been killed.
Qiao Lan felt like a fool.
Kang Jun watched the scene unfold from afar but he did not interrupt for a small bit. Qiao Lan had helped him and his wife and so, the least he could do was give her a second to mourn. But after a few minutes had passed Kang Jun spoke once more.
"Xin, take Secretary Rong away. Bring him to his niece." Kang Jun said coldly.
As soon as he said this, Rong Xin, who had been standing quietly in the corner felt his body lighten.
"Yes sir." He said happily as he walked over to Secretary Rong.
Rong Xin hopes for a bit of a fight. Taking Rong Yue Wan was fairly easy and so, he hoped that Secretary Rong would be a challenge but instead, the man calmly allowed Rong Xin to take him. However, before he left, Elder Kang spoke.
"Wait! Please... tell me. I had once asked you to find out who had killed Zhi. Did you lie to me when you said you didn't know?"
At the moment, Elder Kang's heart was on fire. After all his years trusting Secretary Rong, he hoped with all his heart that their relationship hadn't been a lie.
Seeing the desperation in Elder Kang's eyes, Secretary Rong sighed.
"Since the day the accident had happened, I knew that Kang Zhi didn't die and so, no I didn't lie to you when I said I didn't know who killed him. But I did find out that Elder Qiao had planned the assassination."
Hearing this, Elder Kang's heart cracked right open and then he looked down and the table.
"Get out..." he whispered.
After Elder Kang said this, Rong Xin dragging the non apologetic Secretary Rong from the room.
Once the two were gone, Kang Jun turned his attentions to Feng Zhengyi who was frozen in place. She contemplated what had happened in her head and she could see that she had been confined to a corner.
"Now..." Kang Jun said. "About the matter of my children. Feng Zhengyi, you have a choice to make. Either you give my daughter to me or else face the consequences."
Hearing this, Feng Zhengyi frowned. "Didn't we already agree to settle this in court."
"We will not be going to court. The ending is already clear. I'll get my daughter back, just to save time and face on your part, I think it's best that, for once, you chose the right side." Kang Jun said as his face darkened.
Hearing his words, Feng Zhengyi's face also darkened and so she said, "Clearly you're foolish if you think that the courts will allow you, a person who barely has time to spend with his family, and that step mother wife of yours to take care of the children. Kang Mei Xue will stay under my custody."
