918: Self-Inflicted

Self-Inflicted

She screamed towards Xia Shixiong, "You bastard! You're worse than a wild animal! Why would you do this?!"0

Her statements coupled with the way she was dressed, shocked everyone. Everyone thought of something that felt criminal.

In the video, Xia Shixiong frowned deeply, "Houshang, I am sorry. But you were half conscious last night and kept on throwing yourself at me. I temporarily lost control, so…"

His words silenced the entire crowd. Everyone widened their mouths as if they had just overhead a thundering secret.

"I was only half-conscious, were you only half-conscious too?! How do I go out there to see people now?! You have ruined everything for me!"

Xia Houshang's words confirmed everything.

Xia Shixiong continued to speak. But due to guilt, he didn't dare to look at her face.

"What happened is between you and me. As long as we don't speak of it, no third person will know. I will make everything up to you."

His words drove Xia Houshang insane, "You disgust me! Do you think as long as no outsiders know, I can live like nothing's happened?! I would have to live the rest of my life in pain! I will be so disgusted for the rest of my life, I will never be able to eat again!"

While Xia Shixiong looked away out of guilt, Xia Houshang took out her gun and stuck it into his ear, "Go die!"

Xia Shixiong had no idea that Xia Houshang was angry enough to try to kill him.

Before he could move away, Xia Houshang had pulled the trigger.

Though she used a muffler, the "bang" from the bullet leaving the gun remained crisp and clear.

Blood splattered all over Xia Houshang's face as she scorned. Then, she started to laugh like a crazy person.

"Only your death can bring me peace! Only your death can make me forget that disgusting event! You want to make it up to me?! You can only make it up to me by dying!"

By the time the video stopped playing, Xia Houshang had collapsed onto the ground.

Jiang Che's face was impossible to describe. His pupils quivered.

The moment of silence soon ended. What came next was an inexpressible amount of noise.

"****! This news is ugly! Even fiction novels don't dare to write plots like this?!"

"The wealthy families may appear bright and shiny, but they're so damn dirty under the table! This has opened my eyes!"

"So she killed her father then blamed it on Qiao Qing? Why?"

"Exactly! I would've pitied her based on the video. But she tried to make someone else the scapegoat. How shameless!"

"Ah, she's the type of person to ruin others' lives just because she isn't happy. She self-inflicted all of this."

"..."

The mocking comments around her painted Xia Houshang's face with deliria.

She stared down at Qiao Qing as she clenched her teeth, "This person has ruined my family reputation. Kill her!"

Her guards, however, remained unmoving. They merely gaped at Xia Houshang with coldness.

Though Xia Houshang designed guns, these guards were hired and trained by Xia Shixiong. To them, Xia Shixiong was their true master.

After knowing that Xia Houshang had killed Xia Shixiong, there was no way they were going to listen to her orders.
