Chapter 51: Scene Set.
Xiao Mei said, "Boss, Attorney Leigh has signed the documents and the compensation has been moved into your account."
Hao Ren nodded, and said, "Deliver a message for Yue Shenlong to deliver Maria in the secluded hills in the suburbs, half an hour after Han Yuntian reaches home."
The Ai replied in positive.
...
Han Ming had been anxiously waiting for the deal to go through so that he could call his son back. Even sinners cared for their children, specially crooked sinners like Han Ming. He received the call from his attorney that Hao Ren has signed the negotiation papers and they could directly apply for Han Yuntian to be released.
Han Ming sighed and sat down in the chair, relieved.
...
Han Yuntian went through the process and collected his stuff from the officer on duty and boarded the car with his father\'s attorney. He did not say anything because he was thinking about how to avenge this humiliation.
After a few minutes he asked, "What did you do to pull me out, Neil?"
Neil sighed and said, "We had to compensate all the people, we incurred huge loss this time."
Han Yuntian furrowed his brows, "You paid the people to bring me out?"
Neil nodded and said, "It was Hao Ren the primary reporter who delayed the signing of the document otherwise you would have been released in the morning only."
Han Yuntian clenched his fists, his hatred for Hao Ren was multiplying at a shocking level. The car arrived at the villa where Han Ming lived. Han Yuntian had just gotten out of the vehicle when his cell phone rang. He picked up the call and from the other side, Maria\'s voice sounded, "Han Yuntian, you bastard. You dared to trick me into loving me, yet you have been sleeping with other people?
You fucking shit. I will tell the cops about everything that you and your father do."
Han Yuntian\'s gaze turned cold, but he spoke with an affectionate voice, "Love, what are you even thinking about? What have I done?"
Maria scoffed and said, "If I don\'t see you at the location I sent you within an hour, you will go back to the prison where the criminals love to fuck white boys like you. Understand, you swine."
Han Yuntian took a deep breath to calm himself and asked, "What do you need?"
Maria replied, "I only want you. I just want you to accept my love. That\'s it."
Han Yuntian checked the caller ID and after he made sure that it was really Maria, and he said, "Fine, give me your location, I will come over soon."
The call was disconnected and Han Yuntian went inside the house. Han Ming was in the living room when he saw his son coming inside, he smiled and stood up jovially. He laughed and said, "As long as you are fine."
Han Yuntian was a crazy animal, but he was loving to his father. He was a bastard born out of wedlock, and while Han Ming could have abandoned him, the guy actually came forward, and took care of him, even overlooked his own daughter. Han Yuntian had been spoiled by Han Ming from childhood, but he loved his father.
The two hugged each other and Han Yuntian said, "I will be going over to meet Maria."
Han Ming looked at him and chuckled as he shook his head. He said, "Use protection, don\'t give me grandchildren till you are the chairman of the Empress International, understand?"
Han Yuntian smiled and nodded as he left home with a car key in his hand. In his vehicle he checked the location and drove quickly. He was enraged and since Maria wanted to take the heat, he was happy to give it to her.
He would kill that woman.
...
Hao Ren had asked Yue Shenlong to leave Maria on the ground in the woods and leave the place. Maria was laying on the ground, she was unconscious, because the people had given her a knockout medicine.
Hao Ren stood in the distance hiding in the cover of darkness. He spoke in a soft tone, "Xiao Mei, where is Han Yuntian?"
Xiao Mei replied in his earpiece, "Boss, he would need half an hour to reach here."
Hao Ren nodded, and he made his way toward Maria. He took out a small glass vial from his pocket and poured the content inside Maria\'s mouth. He sensed her heart beat fainting till it came to a stop. Then the body of the lady began to decompose. However, when the skin turned blue and pale, Hao Ren was surprised, and said, "I did not expect the effect of decomposing liquid would be so good."
This liquid could accelerate the decomposition of the subjected organism. As Hao Ren was recording the changes, Xiao Mei said, "Boss, Han Yuntian is here."
Hao Ren quickly ran and climbed the tree before him. He did not have to wait for long before Han Yuntian came over. He could see from the expressions of the young man that things were not good, and even if he did not make a move before hand, then Han Yuntian would have killed Maria.
Han Yuntian saw the lady laying on the ground. He frowned, he was crazy but he had killed before and knew that Maria was not alive. At this moment, a calm voice echoed through the woods, "Greetings, step-brother-in-law."
Han Yuntian raised his head and spotted Hao Ren standing in the distance with a smile on his face. The former squinted his eyes, and asked, "You are, Hao Ren?"
Hao Ren smiled and replied in a friendly tone, "Yes, I am Hao Ren, the one and only. What do you think? Am I handsome?"
Han Yuntian\'s gaze turned cold and he asked, "Did you kill her?"
Hao Ren shook his head and said, "You should not ask the things you don\'t want to know. Right?"
Han Yuntian clenched his fist and smirked, "Do you think you can fight me with that broken hand of yours?"
Hao Ren nodded and said, "I can kill you with just one hand. Don\'t worry, I won\'t back off."
Han Yuntian charged forward at Hao Ren quickly. The latter was unbothered, this sort of fight looked too easy to him. Han Yuntian was a brawler, he might have been able to overwhelm the people weaker than him but he did not stand a chance against Hao Ren.
Han Yuntian attacked Hao Ren, and the latter used his right hand to parry all the attacks, and after five minutes of moving around he said, "Han Yuntian, I expected a little better from you."
Then he parried an attack, swiftly took out a silver needle from his belt and stabbed it in the back of Han Yuntian\'s neck. The latter was stunned immediately, after a few seconds, he fell down on the ground.
Hao Ren smiled and asked, "Do you know why you are so miserable at this moment?"
Han Yuntian just glared at him, but he could not speak. Hao Ren smiled at him and said, "You dared to lay a hand on Lingshi. If it was a fair competition in the company where you would want to beat her openly, I would not have minded looking at you, but you went as far as hiring the mercenaries. Too bad they died at my hands."
Han Yuntian was scared, he did not expect Hao Ren to know that he was the person behind Red Banner. Hao Ren continued recounting the things Han Yuntian has done, and then he said, "In the end, your insolence is the result of your father being too supportive of you. So, your father should also follow you."
Han Yuntian was shocked, Hao Ren smiled and said, "You are thinking how will I do that? Let me show you. Xiao Mei, send the clip to Han Ming and also call him over to hand over the money or he can collect the head of his son."
Han Yuntian heard a voice, "Yes, Boss."
Hao Ren smiled and introduced Xiao Mei to the latter. He was like a demon from hell who was tormenting Han Yuntian with great pleasure.
...
Han Ming was having a drink on the bar when his phone rang. He picked it up and saw Han Yuntian calling him. He answered the call with a smile, but his face changed. Then he disconnected the call and turned to look at the message on his social media. It was a clip where Maria was talking about his dark businesses and this scared Han Ming.
At the end of the clip, Maria looked at the screen, it was as if she was staring right at Han Ming, and said, "If you want your son to be back home in one piece, deliver twenty million cash to the location below. Or be prepared to collect Han Yuntian in pieces all over the city."
Han Ming was so angry that he almost broke his phone with a tight grip. However, now that his son has been kidnapped by Maria, he had no other option to look for him. He could not call the police because his son was freshly released and if Maria did something crazy like sending the clip to the police or harming his son then it would be too much of a loss to bear.
He threw his glass at the wall and quickly collected all he cash in his bag and then rushed over to the location.
...
Hao Ren looked at Han Yuntian and said, "Your father loves you so much. I wonder what he would do if he was the one to put you to rest?"
Han Yuntian shivered, and then he saw Hao Ren poke his body with needles and made a few signs with his hands. The young man was sent into a daze right away. Then he stood up before him and put a black cap on his head to cover his face. The next moment Hao Ren covered his face with a black cloth leaving only tiny gaps to see what was going on around him.
He stood before Han Yuntian as if he was the hostage. Xiao Mei said in his ear piece, "Han Ming is reaching over in a few bits."
Hao Ren nodded and said, "Do you know when to alert the police?"
Xiao Mei replied in positive, and Hao Ren placed a gun in Han Yuntian\'s hand, and the gun was pointed at his own head. The scene was set, and the main character was about to make an entrance.
