Seeing the situation between his boss and Nixxxie, the assistant left the room and closed the door as he stood outside.
Nixxxie stared back in Xi Cheng's eyes as she was equally angry as him. "I am not scared of you, you bastard."
Calling him bastard triggered him again and he straggled her neck with his one hand.
"Cough-cough!!"
"Dare to call me bastard again and I will kill you for real," Xi Cheng warned but it didn't scare her and she managed to speak, "Cough..go ahead."
Seeing her not scared of him and the anger and hate in her eyes for him affected him and he let her go as he said, "You are the only person I would never want to hurt, Nicky."
"And you are the only person I hate so much that I won't even cry if you are dead," she shouted angrily.
Xi Cheng tried to be calm as he meant what he said. He would never harm her ever even if that meant hurting himself.
"Nicky….."
"Don't call my name with your filthy mouth. Wasn't it enough for you to kill my brother that you killed one more person? Is money that important for you? Instead of him, why didn't you kill me as I am the one to hold what you want."
"It's not that, Nicky."
"Shut up you, monster. You are not the one to kill him but I am the one. You made me a murderer. If you have waited for some time and asked me to pass you everything, I would have given it to you. I never wanted this business or anything. Why didn't you wait? Why did you kill him?"
Nixxxie was angry, hurt as well as disappointed not knowing how to deal with it. The anger took over her to make her look like a madwoman who was shouting screaming and blaming the person.
Though everything was on Nixxxie's name, she didn't have all the rights in her hands, but soon it would be up to her, and for that, her mother was doing everything she could.
Xi Cheng stepped towards her as he tried to hold her, "This is not what you think."
Nixxxie pushed him away. "Don't touch me. I am young but I know why you did this all. You want all the power and money but now I will make sure you won't get a penny."
Warning him, NIxxxie stepped towards Xi Cheng's study table in a hurry even before Xi Cheng could understand everything. Picking up the gun from his table, Nixxxie pointed it at her temple.
It scared the hell out of Xi Cheng and he stepped towards her. "Nicky, What are you doing?"
"Step back or I will shoot myself," she warned as she held the gun tightly and her finger ready to press the trigger.
"Xi Cheng stood up where he was as he said, "I don't need what belongs to you. Trust me. I want you to be happy always."
"But now I can't be happy ever. I can't live as a murderer. With my death, everything that belongs to me will go to the trust and you won't get anything. I wish I had done this before."
Saying she closed her eyes and before Xi Cheng could do anything she pressed the trigger.
"CLICK!!"
"Nicky!!" Xi Cheng shouted as he held his breath and felt like his legs lost the strength and stood frozen at his place as if he lost everything. He could lose anything but not Nicky.
Nixxxie opened her eyes in a shock as nothing happened and she pushed the trigger again.
"CLICK-CLICK!!*
Feeling frustrated with no bullet in it, Nixxxie threw the gun on the floor, "It won't let me die even" and kneeled down on the floor while crying sobbing, her eyes shut tightly.
Xi Cheng ran towards her and hugged her before she could react. "Nicky!" It was the first time Xi Cheng's eyes turned moist. "A-Are you okay."
His touch disgusted her as she pushed him away. "Stay away."
Getting up from the floor she ran outside of the room and straight went to her own room while Xi Cheng was sitting frozen on the floor where Nixxxie pushed him.
"I Lost her forever now," Xi Cheng mumbled. It was terrifying for him to imagine her dead and he regretted his doing.
Nicky went back to her room not knowing what to do now but she could only cry over the things she got to know about. She looked at her cellphone as she could think about only one person to tell him everything.
she dialed a number and the moment that person received the call, she spoke, "Brother Feng"
Lu Feng was about to sleep when he saw the call from Nixxxie. Feeling worried he received the call and heard the sobbing voice from the other side of the line. "Bother Feng!"
"Nicky, are you okay?" Lu Feng asked feeling worried and get up to put on his jacket as he knew there must be something that Nixxxie was crying.
"Brother, Feng….." She felt choked to answer him anything.
"What happened?" asking he barged out of his room to go downstairs.
"My step-brother...he…."
"What did he do, Nicky?" feeling anxious Lu Feng ran outside to get out and to go towards his car.
"He...He killed someone."
It scared him even more and asked, "First tell me where you are, and if you are fine."
"I am at home...I don't know what to do."
"Stay there. I'll be there soon."
"Hmm!"
They hung up the call and Lu Feng drove the car as fast as he could. It was a sports car and roads were empty because of the late-night time so it didn't take him time to reach the Xi Residence.
When Lu Feng reached there, in hurry he entered the home. In the living room, Lu Feng saw Xi Cheng's assistant and halted in his tracks. Just then he saw Xi Cheng coming out too and went to him.
Lu Feng strode towards him and holding Xi Cheng's collar, Lu Feng pushed him at the wall behind, "What did you do with Nicky?" His voice cold and eyes were full of rage as if he would kill Xi Cheng the very moment.
