Sugar And Spice: The CEO's Feisty Wife Chapter 314 - Ho Rad

It was 9PM at night. Xie Yuansheng covered Feng Xinying with a blanket, kissed her forehead and left the room after tucking his gun in the holster. He drove straight to the house from where his man had called. It was half an hour away and he was thinking how to contain this issue all the way. When he reached there, his men surrounded him and took him inside. He found that Ho Rad was sitting with other men including Su Lang in a separate room. They were all having beer and playing cards. Ho Rad was laughing loudly as perhaps he had good combination. 

"Tell me all about it," said Xie Yuansheng as he sat in the room from where he could see the rest of the men through the tinted gla.s.s. No one knew that Xie Yuansheng was there. 

"Boss, Ho Rad has been leaking information to Su Lang even though it is not required. What I mean is that why would Su Lang even need this information. It is totally unrelated to him. He is not even in the group that you have formed for the meeting!" said his man now very irritated at Ho Rad. He was known to have a very short temper and because of his temper, his wife had left him with her kids. His men feared him greatly. "I want to take down Su Lang!" 

"So did you find out anything about Ho Rad? Anything unusual?" asked Xie Yuansheng, ignoring his last sentence.

"Yes! Ho Rad visits a cemetery every weekend. He offers prayers and white lilies to a grave. The thing is that when my men followed him, they found a pattern."

"What sort of pattern?" asked Xie Yuansheng keeping a hand on his chin. 

"After keeping the white lilies, he sits down and then leaves the grave exactly after five minutes. He goes to a bench that is located five minutes walk from there and meets a very old man. It looks as though he is meeting that man for the sake of old days. They spend half an hour, laughing, talking and perhaps even jesting with each other. I had sent my man to hear what they talk about but they only gathered jokes, politics, weather and old time talk," his man said trying to imply that this was nothing weird. 

"So why did you say that he holds something dark?" asked Xie Yuansheng frowned. "Why are wasting my time if you couldn't find anything? This is nothing to point at Ho Rad!" 

"Young Master, two weeks ago, my men decided to follow the old man just like that. They followed him to his old vintage car and were shocked to see that the car stopped in front of Lim De Zhi's office," replied his man. 

Xie Yuansheng crossed his hands across his chest and with narrowed eyes looked at Ho Rad. He was winking at Su Lang. This wasn't as straight as it looked. He knew that Lim De Zhi was never into any of the nefarious activities. But what was the purpose of taking the car to his office? Either the old man was a seasoned trick master in this field or he was related to Lim De Zhi.

"Did the old man leave the car in his office building?" asked Xie Yuansheng. 

"Yes. He left the car there. We saw him going in the building. My men were astonished as to how come he was going in the building when it was a holiday? They waited for him to come down, but he didn't come back. They waited for the entire day, but there was no trace of that old man. So last week, my men again followed that old man after Ho Rad met him and they saw him disappearing into that building. Once again he didn't come out." 

Without another word, Xie Yuansheng took his gun out of the holster. He attached a silencer to it and aimed it at Ho Rad through the tinted gla.s.s. 

"Boss, what are you doing?" asked his man in fear. 

Xie Yuansheng looked at him coldly, and turned the gun towards him. 

"Boss, I am sorry," his man started sweating. It was the worst thing to do. Ask Xie Yuansheng about his decisions. Only his wife could question him, it was known in the circle. 

Xie Yuansheng turned the gun back towards Ho Rad. A shot was fired. A bullet pierced through the fiber gla.s.s window and found its home in Ho Rad's forehead. The card in his hands dropped on the floor as blood from the back of his head gushed out as though someone had broken a watermelon. His lifeless body slumped on the chair. Su Lang looked down upon Ho Rad. He felt dizzy when he saw his body but he stood rooted to the ground. Now what? 

Everyone around the table froze for a second and then panic set in. Ho Rad, a senior gangster was killed just like that. They all looked at the direction from where the bullet was fired. Since it was a fibergla.s.s, only a little was broken around the hole through which the bullet pa.s.sed. Some of them gasped, while a few ran to the room. When they reached there, they found their boss sweating profusely. 

"B- boss, wh- why did you kill Ho Rad?" asked one of his men. 

"I didn't kill him…" he replied, shaking in fear. "He was here…" 

All of them became nervous. The leader of The Crocodile Organization was here, watching them from the inside. But why was Ho Rad killed? 

"Take care of the body. Make sure that no one comes to know about this," said the boss getting up and trying to take the situation under control. 

Xie Yuansheng walked out of the house the minute he fired the shot and drove back home. He knew that killing Ho Rad would ensure one thing - he would never be able to pa.s.s information to Su Lang. He wanted to create confusion in the enemy camp before taking them down. If his calculations were right, he would take them down in a week's time. 

When he reached home, he saw that Feng Xinying was wide-awake with the phone in her hand. "Where did you go, Xie Yuansheng? She asked.
