155 Murderous Intent

Being stared at by Yun Bixue, Shen Zhengyao didn't know if he should sit or stand. He stood stiffly on the spot for a period of time.

Yun Bixue shrugged her shoulders at Xie Limo and said, "Mr. Xie, it seems like he won't be accepting your graciousness and chooses not to sit. Sigh, I guess he's more accustomed to sitting on the luxurious seats of the Shen family and not on an icy cold chair."

Yun Bixue put on a sighing face, and her words seemed to hint at something else. How could Shen Zhengyao not catch on? He planted himself on the chair. As a result of exerting too much force, he almost fell over the back of the seat.

Xie Limo watched Shen Zhengyao's expressions and asked coolly, "Mr Shen, what brings you here?"

Shen Zhengyao glanced at Yun Bixue, about to speak yet stopped himself.

Xie Limo replied plainly, "Mr Shen, you may simply speak your mind. Bixue is my wife. Mr. Shen, please understand that if your Shen family was not associated with the Yun family, you would never be able to meet me."

That line of words served an instant kill. Although it made Shen Zhengyao extremely uncomfortable, he had no room to withdraw now. For the sake of the Shen family, he had to go all out. "I beg for Young Master Xie to save my Shen family! I understand that Young Master Xie is busy, but I'm truly at my wit's end! I can only turn to you, Young Master Xie!"

Xie Limo looked at Shen Zhengyao and deliberately pretended to be doubtful. "Mr Shen, I'm afraid you've got the wrong person! The Shen family has been under investigation and the property is currently being sequestrated. Although I might be the leader of Ning An City, I cannot commit fraud by interfering."

With just a sentence, Xie Limo mercilessly rejected Shen Zhengyao. It was apparent that he did not want to help, but what could he do to him?

Shen Zhengyao's complexion turned pale and he stood up abruptly. Pleading earnestly, he asked, "Young Master Xie, I know you must have a solution for this! As long as you're willing to step in, the Shen family will surely be alright."

At the side, Yun Bixue snickered and said, "Shen Zhengyao, you truly overestimate yourself. You think you can beg him once, and then your Shen family will be fine? This is definitely the biggest joke in the world!" As she spoke, Yun Bixue slammed the table, and her gaze turned cold and dominating.

Shen Zhengyao watched Yun Bixue reaction, and an odd expression flashed across his eyes. He could only keep his back bowed forward, a stark difference to his formerly upright posture. "Yun Bixue, in any case, the Shen and Yun family are related—you can't just leave us in the lurch!"

"Haha, leave you in the lurch? Shen Zhengyao, do you take me for an idiot, or do you take Limo for a fool? Didn't your Shen family try to kill me before this? Could you have forgotten about the car accident, and the strangling incident on the hospital bed? Is your memory so bad that you forgot everything?"

Watching the murderous look on Yun Bixue's face, Shen Zhengyao's heart thumped and he grew restless. He assumed that after the accident, Yun Bixue would be gone without a trace. He had never expected for his plan to fail, and for her to continue living well and suppress Old Lady Shen.

"Yun Bixue, that was a misunderstanding. The Shen family has never tried to murder you!"

Yun Bixue laughed coldly and then crossed her arms as she lurched forward. She grabbed onto Shen Zhengyao's neck and said, "I'll let you have a taste of how that person choked me. How does it feel? Asphyxiation feels rather good, right? Or will you continue to lie?"

"Cough cough…" At that moment, Shen Zhengyao grew fearful. He could really feel the murderous intent coming from Yun Bixue. His soles started to sweat and his heart couldn't help but shiver.

Also, he didn't know why but he was absolutely incapable of retaliating at that point of time. The strength Yun Bixue's put behind her grip was skillful, and he didn't even have the opportunity to struggle.

Just as Shen Zhengyao was losing his consciousness, Yun Bixue suddenly released him. His whole body went limp and slid to the ground. He coughed and inhaled incessantly, his lungs greedy for air.
