Extreme Joy Begets Sorrow (7)

Huo Yunting, he finally had this day too!0

After he completed the port project about six months later, he was confident he could finish Thunderbolt once and for all.

By then, without Huo Yunting's patronage, Huo Zhenning will be a dead man!

Xiang Jinxi felt the thrill he had not felt before, and was glad that he had chosen to work with Mr Bruce.

Or else, he would not have the things he had today.

As he thought of that, he gave Bruce a call, and simply ran through the progress over his side, and he heard the latter laughed, he too chuckled.

And suddenly, the office door was kicked open violently.

BAM!

Xiang Jinxi yelled without much thought. "Who are you?!"

Just as his enraged self looked at the few people in special uniform outside the door, he quickly suppressed his anger, and in its place was a sudden confusion, and a creeping unease.

"Who are you people?"

He tried to ask as calmly as possible.

Chi Yun said bitterly, "Boss, I could not stop them....."

Just as Xiang Jinxi was opening his mouth, an was about to speak, Bruce's voice came from the phone on his ear.

"Mr Xiang, what's happening over there?"

Before he could answer, suddenly he heard gunshots and among it was Bruce's shocked exclamation.

"Enemies! Quickly, take them down!"

…...

And the call was disconnected.

Xiang Jinxi's expression changed, as a sense of foreboding started to well up.

What happened?

"Mr Xiang."

At that moment, the man in uniform took out his ID card, and said sternly. "We are with the Department of Internal Security, and based on our investigations, we have solid evidence to suspect that you are in league with the Rondel Gang. This is your warrant of arrest, please comply and come with us. If you resist, we reserve the right to use violence to arrest you!"

With a wave of his hand, two other men behind him took out their handguns and aimed it towards Xiang Jinxi.

"..."

It was nothing but chaos in Xiang Jinxi's mind for a moment.

Things had progressed to rapidly and he was at a loss on how to react.

After a moment, he finally managed to recompose his wits.

"You claim that I have ties with the Rondel Gang, show me your proof. If not, what right do you have to arrest me?"

"Who said we don't?"

Out of nowhere, a familiar but cold voice rang from afar.

Following a series of foot falls, Huo Yunting appeared.

He was clad in a gray tailor-made suit, and his black hair combed all the way back, exposing his bright forehead, and made his already immaculate features even more handsome, as frost lingered in his pair of bright eyes.

He strolled on slowly, like a royalty with an ever powerful aura, commanding attention as he went.

"Mr Xiang."

Seeing the shocked Xiang Jinxi, he grinned.

"Long time no see, I'm here to honor my word."

"..."

And suddenly something struck him as Xiang Jinxi recalled the words...

[The next time we meet, it will be the end of you.]

"Huo Yunting!"

He clenched his trembling fist as his eyes shrunk, "What are you up to this time! I'm warning you, don't even think of slandering me!"

Clap clap clap.

"Oh yes, I give you full marks for this unfounded counter-accusation. You can be proud of yourself."

Huo Yunting clapped his hand as he sneered, yet a layer of frost seemed to have formed within his eyes, as his chilling intent permeated out of it.

"Even at this point you are still trying to deny it, you sure floored me with that. But alas, I was too kind and even gave you a warning... you actually thought I had no idea of your dealing with Bruce?"
