Chapter 442 Persistence

Unfortunately, Zhou Jingren underestimated the persistence of his parents.

The moment he arrived in the Zhou Capital, Zhou Jingren already knew that something was amiss. When he walked inside his office, his face immediately contorted into an ugly scowl.

\"Who are you?\" He already knew the answer to his question. \"Who let you in?\" By now, Zhou Jingren already guessed that they have people inside his company. He strode towards his seat with Bei Tian in tow.

\"Jingren…\" the woman called out.

\"I think we should introduce ourselves.\" The man said. \"Right now, I go by the name Zhou Jingwu and this is my wife Zhou Dae Un. I knew her as Lingling.\"

Zhou Jingren sat on his leather chair as Bei Tian sat across the couple.

\"It is a pleasure to finally meet you,\" Zhou Jingwu said. \"Both of you.\"

\"I suppose there is a reason you came out now?\" Zhou Jingren asked. A gleam of surprise immediately flashed in his mother's eyes. His bluntness was a surprise to both of them.

\"I think it is not fair for you to lash out on us now.\" His father said. \"We have our own reasons for not revealing ourselves. I hope you would understand that.\"

\"So why reveal yourself now?\" Zhou Jingren did not budge.

\"Because I think it is finally time for us to get back what they took from us.\" His father said.

\"What do you mean?\" Bei Tian asked.

\"Turn on the news.\" His mother said. In response, Bei Tian opened his tablet and started browsing for the latest news. While Zhou Jingren just stared blankly at them.

\"You announced that you are alive?\" Bei Tian asked, his eyebrow raised.

\"Yes. I will have an interview tonight, in a popular TV show in the Mainland.\" His father said. \"Another conference tomorrow is coming as well.\" He added.

\"Why?\" Zhou Jingren stared at his mother briefly before looking at his father. \"Why now?\" He was skeptical about this whole announcement. The questions in his mind started popping up.

\"We figured you needed our help. Let us deal with them. You focus on looking for her.\" His mother's soft voice made him silent. For a brief moment, guilt flashed in her eyes as her gaze wavered. She lowered her head and avoided Zhou Jingren's gaze.

\"We also… We also have some information that could help you.\" His father handed a flash drive to Bei Tian. \"Check it. It will show you some of the deadliest enemies that the Arison's have for the past years. Maybe they can help you with something.\"

Bei Tian passed the flash drive to Zhou Jingren.

\"There is also… another matter that we would like to discuss.\" Her mother said.

\"What do you mean? You can't just cancel the contract just because you want to.\" Dongfang Jin scowled at Zhou Kang. \"And I did not kill that politician! The truth will come out soon! And once it does… the company will bounce back! I can assure you that!\"

Zhou Kang smiled in response. \"So you think… your PR team's efforts are enough for this? Jin, we all know that there is no coming back from this. You will lose the confidence of your board of directors soon and… that cousin of yours…\"

\"No! I can assure you! There is no way that he will…\" Dongfang Jin's words were interrupted when his secretary, who was waiting outside, hastily walked inside the meeting room. He then leaned towards Dongfang Jin and whispered something in his ears.

Slowly, Dongfang Jin's brows knitted into a frown, then a smile dangled into his face. \"I see…\" he then gestured for the secretary to leave him as he looks at Zhou Kang. \"I guess… I will just allow you to cancel the contract.\"

This immediately made Zhou Kang frowned. He was always the kind of person who loved to see people begged at him. He treats this as a therapeutic activity. This is why he would give favors to people and every time he asked them to pay their debts, he would drown himself in their begging.

To Zhou Kang, this was like a drug. The only difference is, this is more satisfying. \"Are you sure about that?\" he asked. His lips thinned.

\"I am positive. I will focus on the case against me for now. After all, I still have to prove my innocence.\"

Zhou Kang lifted his eyebrow. \"Is that so?\"

\"Yes. Now… I still have another meeting to attend to. I hope you don't mind, but I need to leave now.\"

Zhou Kang narrowed his eyes in response. However, he still nodded and bid Dongfang Jin goodbye. He honestly does not want to spend some time with a murderer like him.

\"Boss… there is a problem.\" He heard one of his men said as he approached him.

\"What?\" he hissed.

\"This…\" he handed a tablet. Immediately, the color on Zhou Kang's face vanished. He widened his eyes. It was as if something was stuck in his throat.

\"We are receiving a lot of calls because of this news.\" The man added. \"Boss, what are we going to do, now?\"

\"Shut up.\" Zhou Kang uttered. Raged slowly consumed his insides. \"SHUT THE F***K UP!\" swiftly, he removed the gun from the man's waist and pointed it at him.

\"Boss… I didn't mean it. I didn't mean it… pls…\"

*BANG*

*BANG*

\"SHUT UP!\"

*BANG*

\"I told you to shut up! So shut up!\" he rose from his seat and emptied the bullet of the gun into the man's body that was already lying on the floor. \"You listen to me! And only me!\"

*Click*

When Zhou Kang heard the sound of the empty gun, he closed his eyes and made a deep breath. The smell of gun power still lingered in the air. It was mixed with the rustic smell of blood. He opened his eyes and looked at the remaining men in the room. \"Clean it up.\" He uttered, a sinister smile blossomed on his face.

\"Ah… Lingling… you are finally back.\" He walked out of the room as he started humming a tune.
