Keeping the promise

Chapter 292 Hypocrisy

"Zheng Wancheng, I didn't expect you to end up like this." Kou Zhuangming said viciously. His voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, and every word was filled with resentment.

Zheng Wancheng looked straight at him, without any fear in her eyes, her gaze was as firm as iron: "Kou Zhuangming, you will not end well if you do this." Her voice was steady and powerful, without the slightest tremor.

Kou Zhuangming sneered: "Hmph, now you are in my hands, and you still dare to be stubborn." He took a step forward and stared at Zheng Wancheng.

Zheng Wancheng looked around, observing the surrounding environment and the people around Kou Zhuangming. The walls of the abandoned factory were mottled and peeling, and the ground was covered with dust and debris.

There were several burly men standing beside Kou Zhuangming, all with fierce looks on their faces. She was secretly thinking about how to find a chance to escape.

"We can't just sit there and wait for death. We must find a way." Her fingers quietly groped behind her, looking for something that might be useful.

Zheng Wancheng straightened his back, looked at Kou Zhuangming firmly, and said in a cold voice: "Kou Zhuangming, as a partner, I think I have helped you in times of need. When you were in the most difficult time, I chose to believe in you and support you. Why did you hurt me like this?"

Her eyes flickered like cold stars, revealing determination and confusion. Her bound hands were secretly exerting force behind her, trying to break free from the ropes.

A twisted smile appeared on Kou Zhuangming's face. That smile seemed like a torn mask, ugly and hideous.

His eyes were filled with resentment and anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Zheng Wancheng, do you think I don't know your background? I have known your identity from the beginning. You are related to Li Yunting, but you still come to help me hypocritically. Li Yunting suppresses me everywhere, making me lose face in the family and unable to raise my head. All this is because of you, so I will naturally not let you have an easy time!" His voice became sharp because of anger, and the blue veins on his forehead bulged, as if they would burst at any time.

Zheng Wancheng frowned and retorted, "Kou Zhuangming, winning and losing in business is common. Li Yunting's behavior is based on business rules, and I help you out of a sincere desire for cooperation. You can't blame us for your failure." Her breathing was slightly rapid, and she felt angry at Kou Zhuangming's unreasonableness, but she still forced herself to remain calm.

Kou Zhuangming snorted coldly: "Stop preaching these big principles to me here! I will double back the humiliation and loss you made me suffer. Now that you are in my hands, let's see how arrogant you can still be!" As he spoke, he swung the stick in his hand, drawing a sharp arc in the air.

Zheng Wancheng did not back down and continued, "Kou Zhuangming, you are committing a crime and destroying your own future by doing this. Do you think this will solve the problem? In the end you will only fall into deeper trouble." Her eyes became sharper and sharper, as if she could penetrate Kou Zhuangming's crazy appearance and see his inner fear and anxiety.

Kou Zhuangming burst into laughter, his laughter full of madness: "Zheng Wancheng, don't try to convince me. I have no way out. In this case, I might as well drag you into the water with me!" His laughter echoed in the empty abandoned factory, sounding particularly eerie and terrifying.

Zheng Wancheng's heart tightened, "Am I really going to fall into his hands today?"

But she remained calm on the surface: "Kou Zhuangming, it's not too late for you to stop now. Don't make the same mistake again." She bit her lower lip and stared at Kou Zhuangming, not missing any slight change in his expression, looking for a possible breakthrough point.

Kou Zhuangming didn't listen at all. He glared at Zheng Wancheng fiercely, as if he wanted to vent all his anger on her.

His eyes were like burning flames, hot and violent. "Just wait, Zheng Wancheng, I will make you pay the price!"

An hour after Zheng Wancheng disappeared, the "Mamba" organization demonstrated its powerful intelligence gathering capabilities.

Members of the organization were typing away at their computers, with data streaming down the screen like a waterfall.

After an intense and efficient tracking, they successfully found out Zheng Wancheng's location and quickly sent this key information to Li Yunting.

After Li Yunting received the location, a look of determination flashed in his eyes. His heartbeat instantly accelerated, as if it was about to burst out of his chest.

"Wancheng, wait for me!" Without any hesitation, he immediately summoned Qin Huaifeng and Li Yunxuan and contacted the police.

"Hurry, get ready to go!" Li Yunting's voice was quick and powerful.

Soon, a team consisting of police officers and underworld forces known as bodyguards assembled and rushed towards the location.

Along the way, Li Yunting was extremely anxious, clenching his fists, his knuckles turning white from exerting too much force. "Faster!" He kept urging the driver to speed up, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
