Chapter 222: Chapter 222 Facing Up

"You! You all! You’re really something!" Jin Zhengxiong said through gritted teeth with resentment, trying to stand up from the sofa but almost falling back if not for his assistant’s timely support. Otherwise, he would have lost all his dignity in front of these two people.

"Just you wait! I, Jin Zhengxiong, will never let you off. The Jin family in Bai City will never let you go. I was originally thinking of giving you a way out, but now I’ll see if you’re as tough as you claim. Even if you crawl at my feet like dogs begging for mercy, I will not forgive you." Jin Zhengxiong said, panting heavily, his voice resembling a broken bellows.

"If you’re going to fall, do it outside the door, don’t add bad luck to my house. As for what you said," Xu Ke shrugged without a trace of fear on his face, "let time prove it, let’s see if they’ll come true."

Xu Ke’s provocative attitude raised the tension in the room to its peak.

Jin Zhengxiong didn’t say anything more harsh, just looked fiercely at Xu Ke and Lin Mengyao, as if memorizing their appearances. He finally snorted heavily and left with his assistant.

"What are you afraid of? I’m here, aren’t I? With me by your side, who can hurt you?" Xu Ke raised an eyebrow and asked.
