Chapter 1066 - Terrifying
Chapter 1066: Terrifying
Long Ye was going to hold the banquet in a high end hotel. He had booked the venue in advance.
Xiao Yi arrived at the hotel as scheduled.
At the entrance of the hotel stood two tall and beautiful receptionists, whose eyes were bright when they saw Xiao Yi getting out of the car.
Xiao Yi wore a black V-neck silk shirt, revealing his collarbones and a tailored suit over it, not buttoned up, showing off his modelesque proportions. Under his short hair, his facial features were handsome and he had one hand in his pants pocket, looking indifferent and walked with swift steps.
The receptionists bowed respectfully when he passed by. “Master Xiao.”
Xiao Yi ignored them and went into the elevator, going up to the second floor. He then passed through a corridor covered with luxurious carpeting and stopped in front of a heavy private room door.
As he pushed open the door, a stern expression was on his face.
The room was large and contained a round revolving table. Long Ye and Xiao Feng were already seated inside. Their injured legs had not yet recovered, Xiao Feng was on crutches and Long Ye was still sitting in a wheelchair.
Seeing Xiao Yi coming in, they greeted him respectfully, “Brother Xiao.”
Xiao Yi raised his hand, indicating that they did not have to meet him at the door. Xiao Yi sat on the head of the table with his usual coldness and dominance.
Long Ye looked at Xiao Yi cautiously. “Brother Xiao, it’s been several days. Feng Zi and I know that we’re in the wrong. We won’t act on our own decisions again and hurt people who shouldn’t be hurt.”
Xiao Yi glanced at Long Ye and pursed his lips, saying nothing.
Long Ye saw that Xiao Yi was silent and shot a look at Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng immediately piped up earnestly, “Brother Xiao, we’ve overcome the hardest times when we dealt with Second Master Qin and are sworn brothers until death! I’m really sorry about Miss Xia’s brother and I will go to Ning City to apologize to Mr Xia personally when my legs have recovered.”
Long Ye looked at Xiao Feng. It was a mere formality, why was he so serious?
Going to Ning City to apologize?
After tonight, Brother Xiao would be dead, what was he apologizing for?
Long Ye looked at Xiao Yi, who had been silent all this time. He waved to the waiter to open the wine bottle and then Long Ye, on his wheelchair, poured the red wine for Xiao Yi and Xiao Feng.
While Xiao Yi was not paying attention, Long Ye pressed the ring on his finger and poured the powder of the poison into the red wine.
After pouring the wine, Long Ye raised his glass and said to Xiao Yi, “Brother Xiao, I’ll toast this glass of wine to you and formally apologize to you. I hope you will forgive me for the sake of us being brothers!”
When Xiao Yi became the in-charge after Second Master Qin’s death, Long Ye had no intention of usurping his position.
Xiao Yi had the ability and he was willing to submit to him.
But later, seeing how he was unwilling to do anything out of the line for a woman, and even wanted to clean up the company to do proper business, he couldn’t stand down any longer.
Even if Xiao Yi had no ambition, he did.
If he was the in-charge, he would do a great job!
Xiao Yi looked at Long Ye and seeing him down the red wine, Xiao Yi paused for a few seconds before bringing the glass to his lips.
Long Ye stared at Xiao Yi and his hand on the glass tightened. If Xiao Yi drank this, he would surely die within half an hour.
“Number Two, Junyuan wasn’t trampled on by you?”
“Brother Xiao, it really wasn’t me.”
Xiao Yi nodded and said nothing more, drinking all the liquid in the glass.
Seeing Xiao Yi drinking the wine, a faintly cold smile appeared on Long Ye’s lips.
The three men had a few more drinks and talked about the company.
Xiao Yi stood up, wanting to go to the washroom but as soon as he got up, he fell back on the chair.
He spat out a mouthful of blood and then, slowly lay down on the table.
Seeing that the plan had succeeded, an undisguised delight appeared in Long Ye’s eyes. “Feng Zi, our plan succeeded.”
No matter how capable and alert Xiao Yi was, he had a weakness, that was, he valued his relationships.
No matter if it was his brothers or his woman.
He would let down his guard easily.
Xiao Feng stood up with his crutches. “Second Brother, don’t you regret it? If it weren’t for Brother Xiao, we wouldn’t be here right now.”
“Feng Zi, soldiers who don’t want to be generals are not good soldiers! With Brother Xiao around, we would eventually be crushed by him! We can control what we want by getting rid of him!”
“But Brother Xiao already has the thought of quitting the organization, weー”
Long Ye interrupted Xiao Feng coldly. “Enough! Don’t mention Brother Xiao anymore, he’s dead. If you know your place, follow me honestly. If not, I can send you down to accompany Brother Xiao.”
Xiao Feng looked at Long Ye in disbelief. In the past the Long Ye he knew was meek in front of Brother Xiao and thought for Brother Xiao and the company. So, it turned out that it was all an act.
He was an ambitious wolf. Even if Brother Xiao had not beaten him up, he would sooner or later rebel!
At this time, the door to the room was pushed open and Ku Li entered the room.
Long Ye pressed his wheelchair and came up to Ku Li. “I’ve poisoned Xiao Yi according to the requirements of us working together. Let’s have a good cooperation in the future.”
Long Ye held out his hand to Ku Li.
Ku Li took out a sharp dagger and handed it to Long Ye. “Stab him.”
Long Ye took the dagger and aimed at Xiao Yi’s back.
Xiao Feng did not hesitate and threw himself on Xiao Yi, wanting to block the the dagger for him.
“Xiao Feng, are you f*cking crazy? Xiao Yi’s dead, why are you still blocking it for him?”
Xiao Feng looked at Long Ye with red eyes. “To be honest, that day after you came to me, I told Brother Xiao about your cooperation with Ku Li and asked him not to drink what you passed to him, but he still drank it. Long Ye, Brother Xiao believed that you wouldn’t really kill him, but who would have thought that you would be so ruthless!”
Long Ye was furious when he heard Xiao Feng’s words, the vein on his forehead protruding. “You surprise me. You actually went to inform him like a little snitch. Luckily Brother Xiao is dead!” Long Ye was furious. “Xiao Feng, don’t blame me for ignoring our brotherhood. You betrayed me first, so I’ll send you down to see Brother Xiao now!”
After Long Ye said that, there was a sharp pain on his back.
The man who was sprawled on the table, slowly raised his head. Xiao Feng, who was nearest to him was stunned, while Long Ye was dumbfounded.
What the f*ck? Xiao Yi did not die?
Long Ye looked back at Ku Li. Ku Li pulled at his face and a man-made skin was pulled of by him.
It was Xiao Yi’s confidant.
Seeming to have thought of something, Long Ye widened his eyes in disbelief. “That night it wasn’t Ku Li who came to look for me at the roof, but your confidant. That bag of poison was not poison at all! You were testing me, right?”
He was too careless. To get to where he was today, how could Xiao Yi be killed so easily!
