Chapter 449 Rusty Smell of Blood

After Zhou Jingren talked to his mother, he offered to give her a ride back to the hotel that she and his father were renting.

At this point, Zhou Jingren realized that Lily would not want him to treat his parents like this. After all, they still did their best to protect him when he was a child.

\"The circumstances back then left us with no choice,\" his mother explained as she boarded his car. \"Zhou Kang and his father staged an accident that killed your grandfather and mortally wounded your father.\"

\"I was left alone to fend for myself.\" She sighed. \"Our people… your father's people easily abandon them. All the Zhou's, everyone in that household just… switched sides and seemed to have forgotten that they literally murdered the previous head.\"

Zhou Jingren nodded. \"So you went to Korea?\"

\"I was from Korea. My mother… blessed her soul, was the second wife of the current patriarch of the Lee Family. I believed Isaac already talked to you or maybe attempted to talk to you.\"

\"Second? I thought she was the first?\"

\"She wasn't.\" She shook her head as her lips dangled a sad smile. \"She was a mistress. She was a beauty queen, and Isaac was enamored by her beauty. I am not sure if he was the one who killed his wife in secret and married my mother or if he was still married to his previous wife when he married my late mother. All I knew is that… he left us.\"

\"He left my mother and me. For some reason, he stayed in Singapore and seldom visited us, until he totally vanished. He started seeing us again when I turned eighteen.\"

\"Then he wanted you to marry to the Zhou Family?\"

She nodded in response. \"I guess your adoptive mother told you a lot of stuff, huh?\" She smiled. \"When I was nineteen… I got engaged to Zhou Kang. It was a verbal engagement. Isaac brought me to Mainland China to introduce me to the whole Zhou Family.\"

\"You see? This is why I always thought he had some connections to what happened to your grandfather. I always thought that they planned everything.\" She added and shifted her gaze out of the car.

Zhou Jingren pursed his lips in response. According to his adoptive mother, Lingling fell in love with his father when they saw each other. It was love at first sight. Her mother politely asked her father to change the engagement as she liked Zhou Wu Ye better than Zhou Kang. However, Isaac didn't agree.

\"Now that I thought about it. Everything was my fault.\" She said and let out another sighed. \"But… can we really dictate our hearts?\"

\"What are your future plans against Zhou Kang?\" he asked, trying to change the topic. He stared at her side profile. \"You are planning to meet him, right?\"

\"We are. However, now that I knew about Lily's location, I am planning to have my men go to Yunnan and maybe act as backup.\"

\"I can handle it.\" Zhou Jingren said. \"Zhou Kang is… obsessed with you. I think you should be more careful. We don't…\" his words were interrupted when the car suddenly halted. Zhou Jingren's quick reflex immediately kicked in as he stopped his mother from falling off her seat.

\"What is it?\" She asked Secretary Go as he saw a black van blocked their way. \"Zhou Kang.\" He hissed and shifted his eyes to her mother. \"Get the gun below your seat. Your people are following us, right? Call them.\" He chambered his own Glock as he instructed Go Jichen. \"Let's try to leave this place.\"

Secretary Go clenched his jaws as he nodded. They eyed the van and waited for people to get off before suddenly driving in reverse, creating a loud screech at the same time.

\"They started shooting!\" her mother exclaimed.

\"It's bulletproof. Relax.\" Zhou Jingren said. Aside from being his secretary, Go Jichen was highly trained in combat and driving. Because of this, Zhou Jingren is very confident in his skills.

The onslaught of bullets continued as Go Jichen started turning in small alleys to avoid the traffic at an insane speed.

\"One last turn to the right. Then stop the car.\" Zhou Jingren said, eyeing the people following them. He had already sent a message to some of their men, calling for backup. \"If they won't back down… all of them will die.\"

\"We have already attracted the attention of the authorities,\" she uttered, her voice trembled.

\"Their job is to dispose of the bodies. Nothing more.\" An icy contempt can be seen in Zhou Jingren's face. The car came to a full stop and Zhou Jingren immediately got out of the vehicle with her mother and Secretary Go in tow. The duo immediately disappeared behind a couple of Zhou Jingren's men.

Not long after, the van arrived.

\"Hold!\" a voice echoed as the door of the van opened. \"We are only here for the woman.\"

\"You can just give us the woman to avoid drawing the police here.\" the man added before he stepped out of the Van.

\"Was it Zhou Kang?\" Ignoring the man's previous words, Zhou Jingren asked.

\"This has nothing to do with you! Give us the woman or…\"

\"Kill them, all.\" Zhou Jingren's interrupted. He pointed his gun towards the man and pulled the trigger. Surprised by Zhou Jingren's actions, the man just stood there as the bullet hit his head. A loud thud echoed in the Alley.

A short and ominous silence followed before Zhou Jingren's people started shooting the van and the people inside it. Seeing this, Zhou Jingren turned his back and walked calmly towards Secretary Go and his mother. \"Let's leave this place once they are done.\" he smiled as the rusty smell of blood invaded their senses. Whimpers and screams followed.

Then there was silence.

\"They are done. Shall we go now?\" He stared at his mother, a chilly smile plastered on his face. \"That Zhou Kang... is testing my patience.\" he murmured as he walked towards his car.
