He didn't admit it or deny it. From a certain perspective, it was a tacit agreement.
Zeng Mao put down the wine glass in his hand, picked up the television remote control and pressed the "mute" button. Then, he said to Yang Cheng, "Since you knew it was poisoned, why did you still drink it?"
"Just like how you felt that I shouldn't have come but I did. It's the same logic."
"How do you know? I didn't feel that you should have come. I opened the door and welcomed you in," Zeng Mao said in disagreement.
Yang Cheng shifted his butt and sat more comfortably on the sofa before saying, "If you felt that I should have come, you should have pointed a dozen machine guns at my head and shot me full of holes the moment I got out of the car. That way, you wouldn't have let down your stupid grandson, right?"
Zeng Mao squinted his eyes. He didn't seem to be angry at Yang Cheng for insulting Zeng Xinlin. He sighed, "Indeed, Xinlin is a bit stupid. But you have to believe that young people will always do stupid things. It's just that the opponent he met made me unable to clean up his mess in time. "
"Haha." Yang Cheng laughed, "My wife always says that I'm rude. I heard that you used to be a very powerful politician. Why are you so rude too?"
"Aren't politicians just one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes?" Zeng Mao smirked, feeling quite pleased with himself.
Yang Chen couldn't deny it. He smiled and looked around.
"What are you looking for?"
"Just one person," Yang Cheng said honestly.
The person he was looking for was naturally Gao Guoxiong. That guy had gathered a large amount of money by forming a clique. Since he was here, of course he had to get rid of him as well. But what surprised Yang Cheng was that although Yuan Hewei said that the two of them were together, he felt that there was no one else in this house other than the old man Zeng Mao.
"You're looking for Gao Guoxiong, right? He left before you came here," Zeng Mao said honestly.
Yang Cheng's mind flashed with a trace of understanding. He frowned and said, "The trap you set up is quite simple. The poisoned wine was clearly meant for me to drink, and the door to your hiding place was opened for me to enter. In other words, it was you who took the initiative to let Yuan Hewei and his wife know where you live, right?"
Yang Cheng found it strange. Since Zeng Mao was so powerful that even the biggest banks in Zhonghai had to give him face, how could Yuan Hewei and his wife easily find out where he was?
A strong dragon couldn't suppress a local snake, but if a strong dragon didn't suppress it, couldn't it just hide?
Now, it seemed that he had fallen for the "luring the tiger away from the mountain".
"You're right." Zeng Mao nodded and said, "I know you're not an ordinary person, so I've been planning to defeat you since the beginning. Of course, I'd be very happy to see that happen if it's possible. But from the looks of it, the chances weren't high. Therefore, it might be a wiser choice to start from your side. "
Yang Cheng's eyes turned cold, and he stopped smiling, "Do you know, I hate hurting the people around me more than hurting me."
"I know very well, because when the news that my grandson was killed by you reached Beijing, I fainted," Zeng Mao smiled slightly bitterly, "So, I don't want you to die, I only want your family to die … As for working with Gao Guoxiong to attack Yu Lei International, that's only the second goal."
"You look very rational, but why would you do such an irrational thing?" Yang Cheng asked helplessly.
"There are some things in this world that can't be looked at rationally," Zeng Mao sighed and closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Yang Chen once again picked up the bottle of red wine that he only drank a few mouthfuls, and poured himself a mouthful. "Are you ready to die?"
Zeng Mao opened his eyes and looked at the bottle of wine in Yang Cheng's hand, "I really want to know, this poison is a newly cultivated bacteria, is it … really ineffective on you?"
"Forty million dollars worth of poison didn't work on me, do you think this thing will work?" Yang Cheng didn't want to waste any more time. Although Qiangwei and her men were nearby, he still couldn't be at ease. If Gao Guoxiong brought a large group of international mercenaries over, then Qiangwei and her men wouldn't be able to hold them off.
Taking out his phone, Yang Cheng sent a message to Molin from the Sea Eagles, asking him to go home immediately. Even if most of the team members were resting, sending one or two members over would be good news.
Just as he was about to go up and finish this guy who was ready to die, Yang Cheng suddenly felt a familiar figure flash in from outside.
Cai Ning, who was wearing a black tunic, was like a shadow walking in from the wind. Her hair was still fluttering when she stood in front of Yang Cheng.
It had been a while since they last met, her calm and elegant face looked a little haggard, but the determination and coldness in her eyes didn't change.
"You can't kill him," Cai Ning said straightforwardly.
Yang Cheng smiled, "Before you came in, you killed all his bodyguards with hidden weapons. Now you're telling me that I can't do it, isn't that a little ironic?"
It wasn't hard for Yang Cheng to guess why Cai Ning would come here. After all, he had always been a serious target, and Yu Lei International had caused such a huge commotion, so the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade would definitely pay attention to his movements. Therefore, Cai Ning's appearance was expected. However, he was curious as to why Cai Ning would come to stop him. She should know that she couldn't stop him from killing people.
Zeng Mao didn't expect such a sudden turn of events. With a gloomy face, he asked, "Who are you …"
He was just wondering why none of his bodyguards came to protect him even if he was going to die today. It turned out that they were all killed by this woman!
Cai Ning ignored Zeng Mao's question and said to Yang Cheng, "The Zeng family won't let you off easily if you kill him. You don't have to be afraid, but the Zeng family and some of Zeng Mao's disciples won't just sit and watch. They might not be able to do anything to you, but have you ever thought that your loved ones and the people around you will be implicated because of your continuous killing? You can kill one, two, one, two families, but can you kill everyone who wants to go against you? Moreover, those people are all important figures in Hua Xia. In the end, you will only incur the wrath of the masses! "
Yang Cheng was silent. He knew that he couldn't kill everyone who had a grudge against him or Lin Ruoxi. However, there was no turning back. He could only walk this path to the end.
"Young lady, which family are you from? Didn't your family's elders tell you that if you interfere like this, you will implicate your family?" Zeng Mao said in a sinister tone.
He was willing to be killed by Yang Cheng because he knew that his death would bring fear to the top management of Hua Xia, especially some of the older families in Yan Jin.
Yang Cheng had already caused a ruckus in Zhonghai. Not only did he remove the Xu family and the Liu family, but he also had a conflict with Ning Guodong from the Ning family in Yan Jin. Although Zeng Mao didn't know much about it, he was old and experienced. How could he not know that Yang Cheng was a taboo?
As long as he ignited the fuse, there would naturally be more people who would go after Yang Cheng or the people around him.
However, Cai Ning's sudden appearance seemed to be disrupting his plan.
Cai Ning stared at Yang Cheng coldly, but in the end, she saw Yang Cheng shake his head gently.
"You won't stop in the end." Cai Ning suddenly smiled bitterly. "I should have guessed it."
"I don't know if there will be a lot of trouble in the future, but if I don't kill him now, there will definitely be more trouble."
After Yang Cheng finished speaking, he was about to make a move, but Cai Ning shouted, "Wait!"
Yang Cheng looked at this woman who had become a little strange. He wanted to see something from her cold face.
Cai Ning didn't know when, but there was a Soul-mourning Nail in her hand. The silver skull was dyed black, and it was emitting a white glow.
The Tang Sect's hidden weapons were extremely lethal and poisonous. If it wasn't for deep hatred, she would definitely not use such a poisonous hidden weapon.
"What do you mean?" Yang Cheng looked at this woman with a complicated expression. He was thinking about how he should deal with Cai Ning if she made a move against him.
Zeng Mao frowned. He couldn't understand the situation at all, but he was looking forward to Yang Cheng and Cai Ning fighting. At least he would have a chance of survival.
"I don't mean anything else," Cai Ning said indifferently. "I just want, this …"
The second she said that, it was almost the blink of an eye. Zeng Mao's expression was still in a state of deep thought, but on his throat, there was a hole that was oozing black blood …
Zeng Mao's eyes revealed a trace of disbelief, and he fell to the ground with a dazed look.
Yang Cheng felt his heart skip a beat. He looked at Cai Ning, who suddenly made a move, in shock …
Cai Ning retracted her slender hand that no longer had the Soul-mourning Nail. She gave Yang Cheng a bright smile that he had never seen before. It was like a spring breeze that blew away the cold, but it made Yang Cheng feel extremely desolate.
It turned out that she was so beautiful when she smiled …
…
Almost at the same time, in the living room of the old mansion, Guo Xuehua and Lin Ruoxi were entertaining Yuan Hewei and his wife. The few of them sat together and chatted happily.
Mother Wang and Zhenxiu were busy preparing dinner in the kitchen. After all, there were two more guests who could be considered relatives. Mother Wang was very excited, and her joyful expression was overflowing.
Zhenxiu had been living in this house for a while. She knew a lot about Lin Ruoxi and Yang Cheng's past. She gradually felt that she was part of this family, and the bad girl became more and more serious. Even when she was cooking, she was like a modern lady who could cook.
At this moment, the people in the house suddenly heard rapid knocks on the door.
"Who is it? Why didn't they ring the doorbell?" Mother Wang complained.
"I'll go open the door," Zhenxiu wiped her hands on her apron and ran to the door. She saw that Guo Xuehua and the others were chatting happily, so she ran over obediently.
However, before Zhenxiu could open the door, a strong force came from the door …
"Bang!!!"
With a muffled sound, the heavy wooden door was knocked down by someone from the outside!
