Chapter 1859 — Returning the Assets
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"He said it—that it was you. I heard it all." Wei Zhao lifted his chin toward An Liwen.
"Don't listen to his nonsense... no—he was the one behind it, he's the mastermind, he schemed to swallow the Gu family's assets..." An Jiande was a cowardly man; otherwise he could never have spent all these years quietly running an organ trade, while An Liwen went so far as to have people kidnapped and their kidneys cut out.
"Oh, he won't get away either." Wei Zhao slapped An Jiande across the face. "You know what? I can't stand men like you, with no spine. If you did it, then you did it—and you'd pin it on someone else?"
An Jiande's face swelled up at once. He was an ordinary man—how could he be a match for an Earth-rank expert like Wei Zhao? If Wei Zhao wished to kill him, one move would be enough. But Wei Zhao did not; he was torturing him, repaying An Jiande one by one for every bit of suffering Gu Pengzhan had endured.
So before An Jiande could open his mouth, Wei Zhao drove his foot into the man's crotch. An Jiande's eyes bulged, a howl tore from him, and his body curled up like a boiled lobster.
The Heirless Groin Kick—his master's wife's signature move. She had once tried it out on Wei Zhao's master, though without success; Wei Zhao, however, had learned it all the same.
It was a rather vicious, underhanded move, one Wei Zhao normally did not use. But against a man like An Jiande, Wei Zhao wanted only to make him suffer more, so as to pay back everything he had done to Gu Pengzhan.
"You... what are you doing!" A flash of fury passed through An Mingri's eyes, but when he thought of Wei Zhao's dazzling exploits that day, he dared not act against him. "What do you mean by this? Trespassing on private property? If you don't stop, I'll call the police!"
"Oh, go ahead. As it happens, I recorded everything you just said." Wei Zhao spoke lightly, but his hands never paused; another heavy punch lashed out, slamming An Jiande to the floor.
An Mingri had not expected Wei Zhao to have recorded them, and for a moment he was caught in a bind. Calling the police had been only a bluff to frighten Wei Zhao—but what Wei Zhao held in his hands was deeply damaging to the An family. If they called the police, the ones who suffered would only be the An family.
"Let him go, and I'll return all of the Gu Group's assets to you!" An Mingyue sighed inwardly. The tide had turned; all the An family's scheming had been for nothing.
It was not that An Mingyue pitied An Jiande. The crux was that once Wei Zhao finished with An Jiande, he would surely turn to deal with the others. Better to make a show of goodwill than to let Wei Zhao act.
"The matter of the assets can be settled later." Wei Zhao planted his foot on An Jiande's spine, and there came a crisp crack. Even if the man did not die from that kick, he would be crippled for life.
"Awooo..." An Jiande howled in agony.
