Three bullets struck Chu Zhiqing's heart, causing blood to spurt out immediately!
Chu Zhiqing staggered backward, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Chu Yuxuan, who had fired the shots. He struggled to lift his hand, seemingly wanting to say something, but was unable to speak again. He collapsed onto the ground, and the blood beneath him gradually spread out, expanding across the floor.
Chu Yuxuan took several deep breaths, his right hand gripping the gun trembling from exertion. Red梅, terrified, had weak legs and tightly covered her mouth. Xiao Qing stared blankly at Chu Zhiqing in the pool of blood. After a long moment, she looked at Chu Yuxuan and lowered her head, hesitating to speak.
Old Three was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected his elder brother to be so decisive! But at this point, no matter how much he wanted to reflect or feel, it was meaningless. Whatever Chu Yuxuan decided, he would not question. "Big Brother, what about Zhao Yunbo?"
Chu Yuxuan struggled to control his emotions and said darkly, "I've already arranged things for him in prison this afternoon. He won't survive the night!" He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then turned to the trembling Red梅, his gaze seeming to deliberate whether to kill her.
Red梅 felt a chill down her spine, immediately collapsing to the floor, begging, "Don't, don't kill me! You promised not to kill me!"
"Red梅," Chu Yuxuan said in a deep voice, "I appreciate the information you've provided, but you know too much, and I can't trust you. You're terrified, stuttering, "I won't tell anyone! I swear I won't tell anyone! Just let me go, and I'll leave Jiang City immediately!"
"Then go," Chu Yuxuan said without hesitation, decisively pulling the trigger.
However, just at that moment, the gun jammed.
Red梅 was terrified, her eyes wide and her mouth gasping for breath. After a while, she begged again, "Please spare me! I have elderly people at home! Please! Wuwu…"
Chu Yuxuan stared intently at her, sighed after a moment, and said, "Ah, it's fate… Red梅, you'd better forget everything you've seen these past few days. Otherwise, you won't just be in danger yourself, but you'll endanger your family as well, understand?"
"I understand, I understand! I won't say a word!"
Chu Yuxuan put away his gun. "If you can keep Liu Jun's secret for twenty years, I trust your silence. Go now!"
"Thank you, thank you!" Red梅, feeling as if she had been granted amnesty, scrambled to the door, fearing that the heir might change his mind at any moment. However, no one noticed that this middle-aged woman, while fleeing, took a special glance at Chu Zhiqing's body.
Red梅 ran out of the villa area, glancing back frequently, still shaken. She ran for a long while before finally catching a cab.
As soon as she got into the car, the woman who had narrowly escaped death suddenly changed her demeanor. The terror and panic were gone, replaced by a triumphant smile.
The driver turned around, sharing the same sly grin with her. Just as he was about to speak, Red梅 put her finger to her lips, signaling him to be silent, and then made a circular motion with her hand.
The driver understood immediately, driving aimlessly for over twenty minutes. When they reached the seaside, Red梅 gently tapped him, indicating to pull over. She then began undressing, stripping down to her underwear, and took the coat the driver handed her, wrapping it around herself. She opened the car door and threw all her clothes, shoes, phone, and even the necklace around her neck into the sea.
Once back in the car, she let out a sigh of relief.
The driver remarked, "Was it really necessary to be so cautious? Thankfully, I had an extra coat; otherwise, what would you have worn in this cold weather?"
Red梅 snorted, "Better to be cautious. Chu Yuxuan has a foreign hacker under his command with advanced methods!" She couldn't help but laugh, "Finally done with it! Hahaha, a bunch of fools! Let's go, quickly, back home!"
About half an hour later, the taxi arrived at a private wine cellar.
Red梅 eagerly got out of the car, running barefoot into a suite within the wine cellar. Inside, Liu Sisi was comfortably seated on the sofa, gently swirling a glass of red wine in one hand while holding the phone in the other.
Upon seeing Red梅, Liu Sisi hurriedly got up, fetched a pair of slippers, and personally knelt to put them on Red梅.
Red梅 was moved, her eyes misting, but she kept silent since Liu Sisi was on the phone.
"Alright then, I have some work to attend to, so I'll hang up now," Liu Sisi said, ending the call and tossing her phone onto the sofa. She then excitedly hugged Red梅 and said, "Xiaomei, I don't know how to thank you enough!"
Red梅 smiled and shook her head, "Why are you so formal with me?"
Liu Sisi took Red梅's hand and sat down on the sofa with her, personally pouring her a glass of wine. "Here, I toast to you!"
Red梅 replied, "I should toast you as well!"
The two clinked glasses joyfully. After sipping the wine, Red梅 said, "Chu Yuxuan said that Zhao Yunbo won't survive the night since he's already arranged everything in prison."
"Yes, even if he didn't do it, I would have found a way to make it happen!" Liu Sisi said, her smile fading as she asked, "Is Chu Zhiqing really dead?"
"Dead as can be. He was hit with three bullets to the chest, and I even checked his body. There's no chance he survived!" Red梅 confirmed. Liu Sisi then asked, "You're sure you weren't followed on the way here?"
"Absolutely," Red梅 assured, "I made a few detours and didn't spot anyone following me. Just to be safe, I threw away everything that could have a tracker, including my clothes and shoes. Anything that could be tracked, I discarded."
"Good, good! That b*st*rd is finally dead!" Liu Sisi's eyes turned fierce for a moment before softening again. She took Red梅's hand and said sincerely, "Xiaomei, since my family fell from grace, you've suffered a lot following me. I've been worried about your safety every moment you were with Chu Yuxuan… Thankfully, you've returned safely! Now that the revenge has been taken, just stay with me and enjoy your life!"
