Chapter 149 I ask you, whose ashes are these!

The last time Father Zheng had seen Zheng Jie was at the trial; back then, Father Zheng was the prisoner, and Zheng Jie was in the gallery watching him make a fool of himself. When he saw Zheng Jie appear before him, Father Zheng clenched his fists.

"Why are you here?"

Father Zheng had an ominous premonition. Zheng Jie's arrival certainly wasn't because he wanted to visit his so-called father. He knew very well that if there was one person in this world who wanted him dead, it was Zheng Jie. Listening to the other man, Zheng Jie's face remained calm.

"Sit."

"I don't like to talk while standing."

Zheng Jie said indifferently, neither happy nor sad. Hearing this, Father Zheng frowned tightly.

"Zheng Jie, I'm telling you, if you want to do something, come at me, don't take it out on others."

"It was I who wanted you to divorce, who wanted you to leave the Zheng Group, and have nothing to do with them."

Father Zheng knew clearly now that if Zheng Jie wanted to do something, Zheng Tian and Mrs. Zheng would absolutely not be able to withstand it; after all, he knew the other man's strength all too well. Hearing this, Zheng Jie looked up at him.

"Those things don't matter. Now the Zheng Group is in my hands, and all things considered, I should even thank you for making me divorce. Otherwise, how would I have been able to get the Zheng Group into my hands?"

Zheng Jie kept tapping his fingers on the tabletop.

"But you probably don't know about Zheng Tian trying to kill me, right?"

Zheng Jie's tone was entirely calm, but as soon as this sentence came out, Father Zheng's face was filled with disbelief.

What? How could this be?

He had clearly already told them not to go and look for trouble with Zheng Jie—no, to be precise, not to target Zheng Jie anymore—because they could never be Zheng Jie's match. As long as Zheng Jie moved his little finger, these people would have only one outcome: a dead end.

"What do you mean? What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? It seems your comprehension skills have dropped significantly since you entered the Prison. A few days ago, Zheng Tian drove that luxury car you gave him to the Zheng Group headquarters parking lot, wanting to run me over."

Hearing this, Father Zheng's heart skipped a beat.

If that was the case, and Zheng Jie appeared here, then he must be fine. Could it be that the person who met with an accident was Zheng Tian?

"What did you do to Zheng Tian?"

Zheng Jie was slightly taken aback, then smiled.

"What could I do to him? Don't forget, it was he who wanted to kill me."

"You know, I really didn't think this piece of trash could actually do such a thing; it's simply unbelievable. However, while he has some courage, a fool with some courage is of no use."

Zheng Jie crossed his legs.

"Want to know what he looks like now?"

"What?"

"Zheng Tian hit and killed one of my staff members with his car; they died on the spot. As for Zheng Tian, because of the car accident, he is now a high paraplegic. A high paraplegic eunuch—this Zheng Tian can be considered to have made history."

When speaking, Zheng Jie's tone was full of unconcealed disdain. Hearing this, Father Zheng was slightly stunned.

A high paraplegic? Zheng Tian? This...

At this moment, Father Zheng slumped onto the ground, his face full of disbelief.

"No, impossible. You're lying to me. It definitely can't be like this. Tell me quickly, this is impossible."

Father Zheng's emotions suddenly became agitated, and he roared at Zheng Jie. Hearing this, Zheng Jie looked at Father Zheng.

Are you anxious? As expected of his most beloved eldest son. Just hearing about his eldest son like this, and he gets anxious. Heh.

"These are photos, and this is the Hospital's critical condition notice. You can take a look."

"Of course, you can also think it's fake, so I specifically brought a video for you. The video shows Zheng Tian lying in the ICU, crying and wailing."

At this time, Father Zheng couldn't care about anything else. He reached out and picked up the things Zheng Jie had placed on the table. When he saw the contents inside, Father Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He saw Zheng Tian's unconscious state in the photos, and his head was covered in blood. Even through the photos, he felt his son was done for.

"The luxury car was indeed a luxury car. If it had been any other vehicle, he would likely have died directly, but Zheng Tian still managed to keep his life."

"But take a guess, for the crime of intentional homicide, will Zheng Tian face the death penalty?"

Zheng Jie said this sentence unhurriedly. The moment he heard this, Father Zheng instantly looked up.

"What do you want to do?"

"My person has already died, and I need Zheng Tian to pay with his life."

At this time, Zheng Jie stood up and stretched.

"So, even if Zheng Tian didn't die in the car accident, he will die now."

Hearing this, Father Zheng clenched his fists, his face deathly pale. It was clear that he was truly worried now. Although he wasn't a law school graduate, he understood the principle of paying for a life with a life. Moreover, the person opposite him was Zheng Jie. Even if there was a chance that intentional homicide might not result in the death penalty, given Zheng Jie's personality, as long as he wanted it, Zheng Tian would definitely face the death penalty.

"You, you... what do you want? The Zheng family? As long as you let Zheng Tian go, I can give it to you."

Now Father Zheng couldn't care about anything else; he had to let Zheng Tian live. This was his and his wife's lifeline, and absolutely nothing could happen to him. If something happened, it would really be troublesome.

"The Zheng family? You really are husband and wife; she said the same thing to me. However, you should already know that those few internet companies are mine now, right? With the Zheng family's current assets of several billion, in my eyes, it really is nothing at all."

Zheng Jie was not someone who was short of these few billion now.

"Then what do you want? Do you just want to kill Zheng Tian? Aren't you fine? Just one of your subordinates died, is it necessary to be like this? That is your brother."

Hearing this, Zheng Jie's calm expression finally changed. At this moment, his face was dark and uncertain.

He didn't expect the other man to say something like this. He was still alive? If he had died, would he still be able to talk here?

Suddenly, he thought of everything the original host had experienced in the novel. That's right, with such a biased father, it was no wonder the male lead in the novel would experience those horrific things. This made him feel that his revenge still wasn't ruthless enough.

"You don't have the right to bargain with me now."

"And aren't you curious about why I came here to find you today?"

Hearing this, Father Zheng was slightly stunned. He thought Zheng Jie came here just to talk about Zheng Tian's matter, but he didn't expect that it wasn't about this. Suddenly, that ominous premonition in his heart appeared once again.

"What? It's not because of your brother's matter?"

"He is not important enough for me to need to waste time coming here."

At this time, Zheng Jie's gaze focused on the suitcase beside him. This suitcase wasn't large and couldn't hold many things, but putting an urn inside wasn't too much of a problem. Thinking of this, Zheng Jie laid the suitcase down on the ground and then took a box out from inside.

This was an urn. It was the most ordinary urn. When he saw this box, Father Zheng didn't know what it was.

"This is..."

"An urn."

Zheng Jie coughed at this time, looked at the other man, and then slowly said, "Guess whose it is."

Father Zheng's lips trembled. The other man coming to find him at this time, with this kind of attitude, proved that this urn must belong to someone important to him. And for him, there were only two most important people: the first was Zheng Tian, and the second was Mrs. Zheng.

It couldn't be Zheng Tian, because just now Zheng Jie said Zheng Tian was only a high paraplegic. Although he was a high paraplegic, it was better than being dead. Of course, for the person involved, being a high paraplegic might be worse than being dead; after all, if one is dead, that's the end of it, and they wouldn't have to face that suffering.

Moreover, Father Zheng believed that Zheng Jie had no need to deceive him about this matter, so these ashes definitely weren't Zheng Tian's. If they weren't Zheng Tian's, then whose could they be? In this case, only one person was left out of the two.

He looked up, eyes wide. At this moment, he had the answer in his heart. It was just that this answer was one Father Zheng didn't want to face.

"Whose, whose is it?" Father Zheng's voice was trembling. Watching the other man's reaction, Zheng Jie already understood that he knew who it was, and he smiled.

"Since you already know, why pretend you don't?"

"It's exactly the person you are thinking of." Zheng Jie looked up, his gaze meeting Father Zheng's in the air.
