Chapter 678 - Bait (II) (1/2)

Xiong Zhi leaned back. Seeing that he took the bait, she continued languidly.

”Well, I can understand why you fell for it. Guan Gao Huan really did a good job of using your hand and then throwing you away after getting what he wanted.”

Xiong De: !!!

This whore!

She knew his dealings with Guan Gao Huan!

His back felt cold.

Since when?

And why was she saying that Guan Gao Huan used him?

Xiong Zhi's eyes took in his shock. ”Don't you ever wonder in your time here how we were able to get hold of that poison? Why is the unique, undetectable, tasteless, and colorless poison suddenly known to us? Did that person say that it was a poison which only he could get a hold of?”

Xiong De suddenly remembered Guan Gao Huan's words when he gave the poison to him.

He said these words to him back then: 'It is only my people and I who know this poison. It is not in the black market yet and no one will know that you have this in your hand. You can kill him without being detected.'

A clap of thunder boomed in Xiong De's mind.

Naturally, he always wondered how Xiong Zhi and Old Xiong discover his plans of poisoning the old man. It was only him and the butler sent by Guan Gao Huan who knew of this secret exchange.

It turned out… This was planned by Guan Gao Huan all along?

But why?!

What was his motive?!

Xiong Zhi could see Xiong De's mind running. She saw his desperation, confusion, and unwillingness.

She riled him up more. ”What's more, he did a good job when cleaning up after himself, silencing both of you. The other is left inside this prison to rot, while the other… Well, who knows what happened to Xiong Wuyue after visiting him in his place. She never went back.”

!!!

Xiong De's eyes widened. He stood up in shock.

An ominous coldness seeped through her limbs, through his nerves, and grabbed hold of his heart.

What was this whore implying?

His daughter!

Did something happen to his daughter?!

”W-what do you mean?” He tremblingly asked. ”Where is my daughter?! Did he lock her up? What did he do to my daughter?!”

Xiong Zhi calmly watched him.
