Chapter 2199 - 303: Feint to the East, Strike to the West

Jin Bo, "It’s just your obsession."

Fang Zheng laughed, "What about Mr. Huo? Is it also his obsession?"

Jin Bo looked at Fang Zheng. He hadn’t expected such a question and remained silent for a while.

After all, the second old one fell out with Grandpa and Dad because of him.

Fang Zheng, "Mr. Huo has always been my idol."

Jin Bo long knew Fang Zheng liked Huo Jin, the second old one, and was surprised he still said so.

Fang Zheng, "Actually, as long as Zhou Chuan is dead, I’d be at peace. Taking you down was just sudden greed."

Jin Bo looked at Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng, "Moreover, half of the reason was Zhou Chuan’s instigation. Zhou Xiaotong couldn’t do it, so he thought of supporting me."

Jin Bo had guessed as much, only listened to Fang Zheng without speaking.

Fang Zheng, "Now the situation has come to this, fulfilling that old saying, ’A crafty rabbit has three burrows, but still meets its death.’"

Jin Bo, "..."

His eyes were grim as he looked at Fang Zheng, knowing he had more to say.

Fang Zheng, "As long as I don’t confess, all the evidence in Zhou Xiaotong’s death case still points to you or Miss Yan. Of course, I can’t shirk the responsibilities that follow."

Jin Bo, "And so?"

Fang Zheng looked at Jin Bo, "No matter how much you hate me, I always worked hard beside you, trying to be someone everyone likes and hiding the dark side of myself completely."

Jin Bo listened, "Every person has his own struggles and grievances, but ultimately they can’t justify breaking the law."

Fang Zheng laughed, "True, a thief can’t say he’s tired of working, can he?"

Jin Bo, "Speak, what do you want me to do?"

Fang Zheng waited for a long time, finally waiting for Jin Bo to speak, gazing at him intently, "Bury Zhou Chuan and my mother together."

Jin Bo looked at Fang Zheng, surprised.

Fang Zheng chuckled bitterly, "Now I see, women like my mother are pitiful but also have hateful traits. She never hated Zhou Chuan, perhaps even loved him. Yet, Zhou Chuan was so irresponsible; he was a fraud."

Jin Bo remained silent, agreeing with the last comment.

Fang Zheng, "Do you know why he pursued my mother?"

Jin Bo looked at Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng, "Because my mother looks like Zhou Xiaotong’s mother. He saw her as a stand-in."

Jin Bo looked at Fang Zheng, utterly surprised.

Fang Zheng, "Later, when my mother found out, he left us and has never cared since. Even in death, I want him to be with my mother, that’s his punishment."

Jin Bo nodded, "I can promise you that."

Fang Zheng, "You can leave, I’ll handle everything."

Jin Bo looked at him, "After how you treated me before, aren’t you afraid I won’t keep my promise?"

Fang Zheng looked at Jin Bo, "I know you’re not such a person."

Jin Bo didn’t say anything more and left the interrogation room.

Fang Zheng watched his back, "Actually, I knew Yan Xiaoxi was pregnant a long time ago, but I never thought of harming her or the child, that’s my limit."

Jin Bo stopped briefly, then continued walking, understanding this was his final plea.

Fang Zheng, "Don’t worry, I know everything about Zhou Chuan, and I’ll help you eradicate any future threats."

Jin Bo turned back to glance at Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng smiled at him, never feeling life so bright before.

Zhou Chuan kept him living in darkness, but now he no longer needs to live that way; in paradise, it must be a beautiful world.
