Chapter 192: Pressed Under the Water

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Huo Zheng returned to the car, Lin Xiaowan was wrapped up in the small blanket and leaning against the car door, looking at her phone. She looked listless probably because she was sleepy. After all, it was past midnight, and it was past her bedtime. The short nap earlier was not enough to wake her up.

When Huo Zheng opened the car door, the strong wind blew in accompanied by the sound of heavy rainfall. He quickly closed the door and removed his jacket. Although he had an umbrella, his jacket was slightly wet. After that, he pulled her into his arms and took her phone away. He said gently, “You’re holding the phone so close to your face again.”

Lin Xiaowan did not complain about her phone being taken away. She shifted into a more comfortable position and rubbed her eyes as she asked, “Where’s Lu Yingxin?”

“I sent her to the police station so she can be punished by the law.”

“Huh? Why did you have to come here then?” Lin Xiaowan asked in confusion.

“I was worried she’d run away again,” Huo Zheng replied. Then, he chuckled and asked, “Then why did you come with me?”

Lin Xiaowan did not reply. She snuggled against him in his arms. She did not say that she was worried he would do something bad if she was not around. She felt uneasy so she wanted to come along.

‘It seems like 1 was thinking too much…’

Lin Xiaowan took her phone from Huo Zheng again. She was reading the messages in her inbox. After Gu Yuwu posted the video, she received a lot of messages. Most of them were very nice so she liked reading them. After a while, she asked curiously, “If Lu Yingxin goes to jail, will she be considered to have left the entertainment industry? Will she have to hold a press conference and make a statement? I see that many celebrities like to hold press conferences when something happens.”

“Why are you so concerned about her?” Huo Zheng asked.

The next day, Lin Xiaowan was still sleeping when Huo Zheng left the house. It was rare that he did not bring her with him. Before he left, he kissed her face, but she did not react at all.

Huo Zheng did not go to the company. Instead, he went to the Huo family’s house.

Late last night, Lu Yingxin was brought to an empty shed behind the main house. The windows in the shed were nailed shut, and the entire place was tightly locked. It was summer now so it was extremely hot there. After staying there the entire night, she was almost completely exhausted.

As soon as the door opened, light streamed in. Although the breeze that blew in was hot, she crawled over quickly as though she had seen some life-saving medicine. However, because she was tied up, her movements were strange and funny.

The two men who entered the shed dragged her out as though they were dragging a pig. Her mouth was still gagged so she could only whimper in a hoarse voice. The duo ignored her and did not slow down at all until they reached the edge of a pond.

Huo Zheng stood quietly under the shade of a tree by the pond. There was a fan blowing in front of him, and he looked relaxed. However, his expression was cold and even a little cruel, making people afraid to look at him directly.

When Lu Yingxin saw Huo Zheng, she struggled even harder, and her voice also grew louder.

Huo Zheng only glanced at her before he shot a look at the two men.

Following that, Lu Yingxin’s face was ruthlessly pressed into the pond.

In fact, the pond was not deep. If she had stood in the pool, the water would only reach her waist. The water was clear. A large number of pink lotuses sat on top of it while fish swam freely.

However, none of the people present were here to look at the lotuses or the fish.

When Lu Yingxin’s face was pressed into the water, she struggled fiercely and even destroyed a few lotuses in the process. She felt dizzy, and her ears were ringing. She tried to hold her breath, but she could only do it for so long. Just as she was about to faint, the person holding her head down suddenly yanked her hair and pulled her out of the water.

Huo Zheng said calmly, “Remove the gag from her mouth.”

As soon as the gag was removed, Lu Xingyin started screaming hysterically. “You’re committing a crime! 1’11 call the police! I…”

Before Lu Yingxin finished speaking, her head was pressed into the water again, causing the surface to bubble and ripple.

After repeating this countless times, Lu Yingxin also lost her strength to struggle. When the person holding her let her go, she collapsed at the side of the pond, motionless and looking miserable..
