Liu Bin was filled with deep regret.
But it was already too late.
Hongqi Group decided to give him up for the greater good, so they had chosen to sacrifice Liu Bin in order to gain Ye Fan's forgiveness.
Liu Bin had spent an entire lifetime of efforts and scheming to get to where he was today.
But now, after making one slip up, he had lost everything.
Liu Bin was filled with indignation.
If he had a feud with Ye Fan, then that was fine by him.
Dying at the hands of his own enemy was nothing to be angry about.
But he didn't have any feud with Ye Fan in the first place.
Liu Bin had never even spoken a single word to Ye Fan before.
But the Qiu family had poisoned his mind and their stupidity had made him offend a big shot like Ye Fan.
And so the great regret in his heart had finally turned into intense hatred towards the Qiu family.
Qiu Mu-Qi's face was all red and his veins were bulging as breathing became difficult for him.
Just when Qiu Mu-Qi was about to faint from lack of oxygen, Xiao En got someone to pull Liu Bin off him.
"Send him away.” Xiao En waved his hand and that was as good as sentencing Liu Bin to death.
"Qiu Mu-Qi, you little bastard! Your entire family are bastards for getting me into this mess! You deserve to die! That Qiu Mu-Ying too! All of you deserve to die! I have turned out like this all thanks to you! Even if I become a ghost, I'm going to haunt all of you! Once I get out of jail, I'm going to destroy the Qiu family and pound you to dust!!" Liu Bin continued shrieking angrily with bloodshot eyes as he was dragged out.
Phew...
Qiu Mu-Qi collapsed onto the floor. His face was still red and there was a bruise on his neck.
He was still recovering from the fright he got just now and was taking in deep breaths of air.
All that happened earlier had really terrified Qiu Mu-Qi to the point where he felt as though his soul was going to leave him.
Until now, Qiu Mu-Qi still couldn't understand what just happened.
First, Wang Sheng-Tian punched and kicked him, then now Liu Bin hated him to the core. If nobody pulled Liu Bin off him just now, Liu Bin would have seriously strangled him to death.
Just last night, Qiu Mu-Qi was still drinking and chatting happily with the two of them.
But just one day later, everything had changed.
Wang Sheng-Tian had withdrawn from Yunzhou with his entire company in a hurry, while Liu Bin had been stripped of his duties and thrown into jail.
He thought that Mufan Real Estate was going to be the one who would surrender to him today, but in the end, Qiu Mu-Qi realized that he had lost everything.
"Young Master Qiu, what say you? Shuntian Group has left Jiangdong and Liu Bin has been thrown into jail. Do you still have anymore trump cards left? If you do, then please go ahead and show your cards. Mu-Cheng and I will be sitting here waiting for you, and we'll catch whatever you throw our way,” came Ye Fan's faint laughter.
That laughter was bright and patronizing. It carried disdain and contempt, as well as the authority that a winner had.
"You mean...it's you?! Were you the one behind all of this?!" shouted Qiu Mu-Qi hysterically as he looked up to stare at Ye Fan with bloodshot eyes.
Qiu Mu-Qi seemed to have finally realized something. He wasn't stupid - since his two pillars of support had gone down one after another, this was no coincidence. Someone was behind this and making it happen.
After he thought about how the man from Hongqi Group was so respectful to Ye Fan, Qiu Mu-Qi instantly suspected Ye Fan.
"No. No, it can't be you. Nobody knows you better than the Qiu family. You're just a country bumpkin of lowly birth with no background and no family to back you. Eventually you married into the Qiu family and became a cowardly live-in son-in-law. You've always taken whatever abuse came your way and everyone looks down on you. How could a useless thing like you possibly force Shuntian Group to leave this city and cause the downfall of Liu Bin?" Qiu Mu-Qi's veins bulged as he shook his head profusely. He found it hard to believe that Ye Fan could be the one behind this.
But there was nothing shocking about that, since that was what they knew of Ye Fan.
Ye Fan had married into the Qiu family for the past three years and everybody in the Qiu family knew what sort of background he had.
