He Chen was surrounded by people as he walked in. Behind him was a large group of people who were all from the He family. When they saw He Feng, their eyes were filled with contempt.
The person they looked down on the most was He Feng, who had actually taken advantage of Ye Ning’s predicament back then and married Ye Ning.
In their eyes, He Feng was a complete villain. He Chen, who had helped him back then, was still in critical condition because of a car accident, but he actually announced his wedding with Ye Ning at that time.
After that, he even started his own business and no longer put He Chen in his eyes. This made He Chen’s elders and peers very dissatisfied. They had long wanted to find an opportunity to teach this scumbag a lesson.
The moment He Feng walked out of the door, He Chen raised his arm and gave him a tight slap.
He was completely stunned by the slap. His head tilted to the side for a long time before he could recover.
He Chen still felt that it was not enough and gave him another loud slap on the other side of his face. Then, with a cold face, he asked coldly, “Did you do what happened today?”
He Feng’s eyes widened in shame. The place on his cheek that had been hit was burning and painful. He endured it again and again before he barely suppressed his temper. He turned his head and looked at He Chen with an aggrieved expression. “Brother Chen, what are you talking about? Why don’t I understand?”
“Pretending to be confused?” He Chen looked at him coldly and took the whip from the butler.
He Feng’s body trembled uncontrollably from fear, but for the sake of his face, he stubbornly stood where he was and argued, “Brother Chen, I’ve never done anything wrong to you. Why did you bring so many people to my house to cause trouble?”
He Chen could not be bothered to listen to his nonsense. After getting someone to hold He Feng down, he raised his hand and whipped him hard.
He Feng’s face instantly turned pale from the pain. Large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead and rolled into his collar. All the dignity that he had tried his best to protect was instantly trampled under someone’s feet.
He could not hold on any longer and knelt on the ground. He kept wailing, “Brother Chen, Brother Chen, you can’t do this to me. Even if I marry Ye Ning, it’s because we love each other. I’m also very sad that Ye Ning has an accident, but you can’t attack me because of this!”
The moment He Chen heard those two words coming out of his mouth, his brows furrowed tightly. He increased the strength in his hand and whipped him mercilessly again. “You think you’re worthy of mentioning her? Do you even deserve to call her by her name?!”
He kept whipping He Feng, trying his best to vent the hatred in his heart. He kept beating He Feng until blood flowed out, but he still refused to stop.
Zhong Fei, who had been hiding in the house and watching the whole thing, was afraid that he would kill her just like that. She rushed out of the door and protected her in her arms. “Stop hitting him, stop hitting him. If you continue to hit him, he will die!”
Only then did He Chen stop. He bent down and raised his hand to grab He Feng’s hair that was matted with his sweat and blood. He said coldly, “This matter is not over yet. Your retribution is still coming.”
He released his hand in disgust and his fierce gaze fell on Zhong Fei again. He Chen slowly curled his lips and smiled. “If someone asks later, do you know how your husband got injured?”
“You, you guys…” Before Zhong Fei could finish her sentence, she was surrounded by a group of people. She quickly shrank her neck in fear and nodded her head knowingly. “He, he hurt himself. I won’t tell anyone. Just let us go!”
He Chen was satisfied. He took the handkerchief from the butler and wiped his hands. Then, he turned around and left with a sinister smile.
After the He family left, the police station’s car finally arrived. Not long ago, Chen Hui suddenly received a surveillance video that clearly recorded He Feng’s crime of causing today’s car accident. Together with the evidence in the memory card and the driver’s testimony, He Feng’s evidence was conclusive.
However, when Chen Hui saw He Feng’s bruised appearance, he immediately roared in exasperation, “What ahppened?”
Zhong Fei looked away guiltily and helped the police send the man to the ambulance. Then, she said hesitantly, “My husband accidentally fell.”
“How can you fall like this?” Chen Hui did not need to think carefully to know who would do such a thing at this critical moment. He could not be bothered to argue with Zhong Fei, so he brought them all to the hospital first.
He Chen’s technique was very shrewd. Although the wounds on He Feng’s body were frighteningly large, none of them hit his vital points. His life was not in danger at all. It was just some superficial, painful injuries.
Chen Hui brought the evidence to He Feng, who was bandaged like a mummy in the ward. Seeing that he could still speak, he set up the video recorder and completed the interrogation in the hospital.
He Feng could not deny it in the face of conclusive evidence. He could only admit all the misdeeds he had made back then.
He had taken the life of one person and ruined the lives of two people. His crimes were unforgivable and he was destined to be punished by the law.
On the other hand, because the He family moved too quickly, Ren Zhong did not have time to clean up He Feng’s mess. Instead, he got himself into trouble and became a thorn in the He family’s side. In less than half a year, the company that he had worked so hard to develop was completely ruined..
