384 No Other Option
“I’m not giving you a multiple choice question. What I mean is, if you call the police or don’t do as I say, your whole family will die.”
After Zhou Hao finished speaking, he released the hair he had been holding onto, letting go of the blank-looking woman.
“Actually, it’s fine if you call the police, but if you make me feel bothered, I don’t mind letting your family reunite in the mortuary.”
Zhou Hao spoke as he left the ward with the two burly men.
The ward returned to silence. The woman chose not to call the police. She merely sat quietly in the chair and remained that way for more than ten minutes.
The woman knew very well that Zhou Hao was not joking. If he could break into the hospital and beat her husband until he was disabled for life, then he could also quietly make her family disappear from the world.
“Bao Xu, I’m sorry. I’m the one who got you into trouble…” The woman lay on the bed and looked at her unconscious husband. She cried in pain and her nails dug into her palms.
In fact, the poor couple had no other choice.
From the moment Zhou Hao had set his eyes on them, it meant that the couple would have a tragic fate. They would only be used continuously, and when completely worthless, they would then be heartlessly abandoned.
Elsewhere, Chu Ning planned to return to the Chu residence after visiting Zhang Bo.
Zhou Wei would not lie to her. The people that Chu Ning cared about were still her family.
Chu Zhe and Chu Zhuo were far from M City, so Chu Ning was not worried about their safety. As for Chu Jing, he stayed home all day, so it was not a big problem.
Although the fifth and sixth brothers of the Chu family were in M City, it would be difficult for Zhou Hao to deal with them.
It was one thing to be able to find them, but it was hard to say who would be dealt with. After all, these two brothers were ruthless characters.
Chu Zhang was about to leave M City. If Zhou Hao wanted to find a breakthrough in Chu Ning’s family, he could only look for Chu Huan and their parents.
It was almost ten o’clock when she got home.
At this time, Chu Huan’s parents were already asleep, but to Chu Ning’s surprise, Chu Huan was sitting in the living room, watching TV with a glum look on his face.
“Why are you back?” Chu Huan asked in confusion when he saw Chu Ning.
After returning home that day, Chu Huan had originally been in a good mood, but he received a notice from the chief contractor that he didn’t need to turn up at the construction site the following day. As for the next time he would start work, he would wait for the update.
No matter how stupid Chu Huan was, he knew that something had happened at the construction site.
He didn’t really care about what happened, but every day off meant a day’s less income. It should be known that that was a high salary of 600 yuan a day!
“I wanted to come home and have a look,” Chu Ning said softly.
“What’s wrong? Are you tired of living in that big villa and want to come back to experience the life of the people at the bottom so that you can feel superior when you go back?” Chu Huan had a cheeky look on his face.
He was depressed after losing such a high-paying part-time job. Even though he knew he couldn’t win against Chu Ning, he still wasn’t convinced.
“Chu Huan, I’m not in the mood to argue with you,” Chu Ning said calmly.
Zhou Hao’s threats could appear at any time, and Chu Huan was obviously the best breakthrough.
“I was right!” Chu Huan had been suppressing his voice, but now that he heard that Chu Ning was taking the initiative to give in, he became even more excited.
“Lower your voice, Mom and Dad are sleeping,” Chu Ning warned with a frown.
Chu Ning had been smothering with anger.
The source of the pressure was Ye Ting and Cheng Yi, and now this idiot was still on Ye Ting’s side, completely unaware that the Chu family was already shrouded in an invisible crisis.
“It’d have been fine if you hadn’t returned,” Chu Huan mumbled to himself and turned his attention back to the TV.
Hearing Chu Huan’s casual words, Chu Ning’s heart couldn’t help but turn cold.
“Chu Huan, I’ve never done anything to let you down, have I?” After Chu Ning said this, she went straight to her room.
“Who knows?” Chu Huan pouted and continued to watch the TV.
After closing the door, Chu Ning still felt vexed.
Sometimes, Chu Huan’s words were really too hurtful.
For a moment, Chu Ning really didn’t want to bother about Chu Huan anymore.
Since he was still firmly standing on Ye Ting’s side, then if something happened, let Ye Ting handle it.
But when she thought of her parents, Chu Ning’s heart softened.
The reason she had been tolerating Chu Huan was that she didn’t want her parents to be sad because of the disharmony within the family.
But this was not a reason for Chu Huan to act so recklessly. If Zhou Hao wanted to deal with Chu Huan, it would be too easy.
