After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me-Chapter 1247: Ye Lingfeng Is Back

Ye Lingfeng was about to explode with rage.

Trading himself for Zhouzhou was one thing—after all, she was his biological daughter.

If he were conscious, he'd absolutely choose to sacrifice himself to save her.

But what he hadn't expected...

Was that Grover could be this shameless.

He'd already handed himself over—completely sold out from the inside out—

And what did Grover do?

He refused to deliver his promise.

Unbelievable.

Intolerable!

Qin Lie's gaze swept over his slightly trembling fingers—

Then quickly looked away.

He gave a quick look at Zhouzhou and then continued, "Fine, then go ahead and kill Ye Lingfeng."

To his surprise, Grove narrowed his eyes, clearly amused. "Do you have a grudge against him?" he asked.

"Yes." Qin Lie seemed unbothered, pulling up a chair from somewhere and sitting down, casually pulling out a packet of sunflower seeds. He was eating them while speaking, as if completely unfazed by the situation.

"I've been looking for a reason to get rid of him. He's taken my daughter from me. If he's gone, Zhouzhou will be mine alone. If you kill him for me, I'll remember your favor and make sure they let you go."

Grove was momentarily stunned by their complicated relationship. He had looked into Zhouzhou's background and knew that Qin Lie was her adoptive father and that he doted on her. At first, he had found it strange—both Ye Lingfeng and Qin Lie seemed like men with bad tempers, each more domineering than the last. It was hard to imagine how Zhouzhou could call someone else "dad" besides Ye Lingfeng. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

But now, it made sense.

Given their personalities, even though they appeared calm on the surface, deep down, they must both want the other to die.

Grove couldn't help but laugh, turning his attention back to Zhouzhou. "It seems like your two fathers don't get along very well. You must have a hard time choosing between them. Well, how about I help you make the choice?"

He pointed the gun at Ye Lingfeng's head, grinning. "If I kill him, you won't have to choose anymore."

"By the way, I heard you like money. Once I kill him, his inheritance will all be yours. And as for Qin Lie's wealth, it will all be yours too. At that point, you'll be the richest person in the world."

"How's that sound? Isn't it a brilliant idea?"

Hearing this, Zhouzhou's eyes lit up. "Yes! You really are a smart cookie, coming up with such a great idea!"

Grove was taken aback. Was she out of her mind? Isn't Ye Lingfeng her biological father? Why was she so eager for him to die?

Looking at her expression, though, it didn't seem like she was pretending. But then, recalling what he had just said, it made sense. In the face of profits, what did family ties matter?

And besides, she had two fathers—if one was gone, she still had the other. Ye Lingfeng was hardly irreplaceable.

Grove laughed, unable to contain himself, and taunted Ye Lingfeng who was lying on the ground, motionless. "Ye Lingfeng, look at yourself. Your wife died early, and now even your only daughter wishes you dead. What a miserable life. I can help you to ."

"Don't thank me. Think of this as my final act of kindness."

"Quick, go down to the underworld and find your dead wife, or she might run off with someone else."

Zhouzhou sighed deeply.

Before Grove could ask her what she meant, Ye Lingfeng, who had been lying still on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes. With a sudden movement, he grabbed Grove's arm and flipped him over his shoulder, his hand landing directly on his neck.

"You're asking for it!"

Before Grove could even react, his breath was being choked out. He instinctively tried to kick and push Ye Lingfeng away, but it was useless. He could feel his life slipping away, and panic began to show in his eyes.

"How... How is this possible..." He gasped, his voice trembling.

Wasn't he supposed to be a vegetable by now? How could he be awake?

Ye Lingfeng sneered coldly, his voice full of malice. "Thanks to you."

He cast a disdainful glance at Qin Lie, then turned his attention to Zhouzhou, his face darkening. "Hurry up and help me. I just woke up, and I don't have much strength left."

Zhouzhou immediately ran over, eager to help him hold down Grove. At the same moment, the other hostages—those who had been holding Hua Country members captive—collapsed one by one.

Five men, five bullets, none of them missed their target.

Over the years, under Zhouzhou's careful guidance, every member of the Fourth Bureau had become an expert marksman. Otherwise, Zhouzhou would have cursed them out!

Zhouzhou crouched down and helped Ye Lingfeng hold Grove. During the brief moment when they swapped positions, Grove let out a horrifying scream, his face contorting in pain.

Looking down, Zhouzhou noticed that her foot had stepped on Grove's hand, breaking his bones. His gun was no longer in his grasp.

"Sorry, I didn't notice," she said casually.

With that, she moved to his other side and rendered his other hand useless.

At this point, Grove could no longer scream. His face turned dark, his eyes rolled back, and he was breathing heavily, barely hanging onto life.

The rest of the International Investigation Team watched in shock, clearly terrified by the scene unfolding before them.

Zhouzhou turned her head and addressed them. "Don't worry. As long as you didn't participate in their misdeeds, we won't harm you."

The people who had been holding Hua Country members hostage were all from A Country, and they had done nothing good. Thus, when they opened fire earlier, they didn't have any moral qualms about it.

But Zhouzhou was still able to distinguish between the good and bad among the others present.

Zhouzhou continued, "We took action because these men have been too excessive over the years. As for the rest of you, we remember your merits. If you need help in the future, just ask."

After hearing this, the others had nothing to say. In fact, many of them looked at her with gratitude.

Qin Lie, watching the scene unfold, couldn't help but chuckle. His little girl had really grown up—she knew how to balance both kindness and severity now.

In truth, they couldn't deal with everyone here. After all, these people came from all over the world, and they had no intention of making enemies with the entire world.

As for the men from A Country, their crimes were already public knowledge. They deserved their fate.

Even if they died, no one would complain about it.

None of the senior officials from A Country had spoken out against this. They were probably hoping Zhouzhou would kill Grove soon to prevent him from saying more things he shouldn't.

Grove knew too much.

However, Zhouzhou only listened to her father and her family.

Besides, she was still young and in a rebellious phase.

If they wanted her to kill Grove, she would refuse!

Just as Grove was about to take his last breath, Zhouzhou released her grip on him and, with a flick of her wrist, shoved a pill into his mouth, pulling him back from the edge of death.

"How's that? Isn't it thrilling?"

Before Grove could respond, another sarcastic voice cut through the tension.

"Ah, yes, yes, it's very thrilling. My bad for waking up early and interrupting your father-daughter bonding time."
