Chapter 266: A Thorn in My Flesh

“Don’t worry, Qin Kun,” Huo Jingtang smiled. “Your wife and children are in a safe place. As long as you follow my instructions, you’ll get them back soon.”

Qin Kun remained silent. He’d been presented with a hard choice to make. On one side, he’d have to fall into darkness and help Huo Jingtang with his evil deeds. Yet on the other hand, if he didn’t, he would lose his family.

What should I do?

“I’ll leave the medicine here. I’ll give you time to consider my offer.”

Xu Xiyan heard footsteps closing in on the door and quickly hid in a dark corner.

The office’s door opened, and Huo Jingtang walked out from it with a huge grin on his face.

Xu Xiyan looked at Huo Jingtang’s back as he left and couldn’t help but feel a chill down her spine. She’d never thought that Huo Jingtang was a man who would do something like that.

Huo Jingtang had acted like he cared about Huo Yunshen, but that was just an act. In truth, he even tried to hurt Huo Yunshen by swapping his medicine with something that would harm him.

Xu Xiyan couldn’t help but sigh at Huo Yunshen’s harsh life.

Huo Yunshen had always looked up to Huo Jiungtang as his brother because, he was saved by Huo Jingtang when they were little. He felt like he owed Huo Jingtang for that and always agreed to everything Huo Jingtang wanted.

Huo Yunshen thought of Huo Jingtang as his own brother, while Huo Jingtang thought of him as a thorn in his flesh.

If Huo Yunshen learns of this, it will definitely hurt him.

Xu Xiyan sighed, but at the same time, she also felt relieved that she’d gotten to hear the conversation.

She stood in the corner and thought of how to proceed. After coming up with a plan, she walked to the door and opened it.

Qin Kun was sitting in his chair lost in thought.

“Good afternoon, Professor Qin, I’m here for Mr. Huo’s medicine,” Xu Xiyan said as she walked in.

Huo Yunshen had already phoned Qin Kun and told him that Xu Xiyan would be in charge of fetching his medicine in the future.

“Miss Jing Xi,” Qin Kun could barely form his words of greeting.

“This is his medicine right?” Xu Xiyan looked at the white bottle on the table and asked. “I’ll take them, then, thank you for your hard work.”

Qin Kun did not respond, and Xu Xiyan took that as a yes. She took the bottle and turned to leave.

“Wait,” Qin Kun called out just as Xu Xiyan was about to turn the handle on the door. “That’s the wrong medicine.”

Xu Xiyan let out a breath of relief. She understood that it could cost Qin Kun everything to have made that decision.

He still hasn’t given up on his humanity yet, even when his own family is in danger. He did not forfeit his vow and his promises.

“If I’m correct, then this is the medicine that’ll cause nerve paralysis to a normal person if they use it often.” Xu Xiyan turned and smiled while putting the medicine back on the table. “If a disabled person took it, they’d never be able to stand again, am I right?”

Qin Kun’s expression instantly changed, and he had no idea how to respond to the question.
