Chapter 1504 Do You Hate Me? 6
His husky tone was very calm. Not even a hint of tension could be sensed. He did not seem to have heard the police sirens, let alone know that the police were coming for him. It just seemed that he had never those committed crimes at all.Qi Lei had to admire Qi Feng’s calmness at the moment. He walked in slowly without saying anything.
Qi Feng was standing at the desk. He did not sit down for some reason. After realizing that Qi Lei had come in, he threw the towel in his hand onto the table next to him, raised his gaze, and glanced at him in silence.
“Your ability to speculate has never diminished, has it?” Qi Lei’s glance dimmed. There was no visible expression on his attractive face. He looked at him indifferently. “I don’t understand. The Qi family treated you well. Although my mother didn’t necessarily like you, she was never harsh on you, so why did you lay your hands on her? Because of you, the Qi family ended up as it is today.”
“Xiao Lei, to me, you’re just too naïve. If everyone were to ask themselves the question that you’ve just thrown at me, and if they could all look for the answers to their doubts in their hearts, do you think there’d be evil people in this world?” Qi Feng said calmly, and silently placed all the books that he tidied up back on the shelf behind him. “I’m a wicked person, and also a sinner. I don’t think it’s necessary for me to answer that question of yours.”
“I know you’ve always been resentful that fate hasn’t been fair to you, but n.o.body has treated you badly all these years. Still, you’re not satisfied. I told you a long time ago that I don’t care about the Qi Kai Group or the Qi family. If you wanted something, I just gave up on it. I’ve never wanted to contend with you, but you’ve forced me to step by step up until today.”
Qi Lei pressed his palms on the desk in front of him as he spoke. He then leaned slightly forward and gazed at him. “I only want to live a simple and serene life. Why is that so difficult?”
“From the second you were born, you were destined not to have a simple and serene life. Don’t forget that you had a very compet.i.tive mother. Even if you’re not in it for the Qi family, you still need to always think about your mother, don’t you? Why do you think she married the old man?” With a scoff, Qi Feng turned back and stood under the bookshelf before glancing at Qi Lei, whose expression suddenly dimmed.
“Actually, it’s very clear in your heart that although you don’t want to, there are things and responsibilities that you can’t leave behind. Do you really think you can truly be free and easy? Unless there’s nothing you care about in the whole world and you’ve become a saint. However, such a saint has no emotions, so can you even be such a person?” His tone was calm as usual, and there was also a trace of irony in his gloomy eyes. It was not clear whether it was directed at Qi Lei or at himself.
“That’s just what you think.”
“So, you want to tell me otherwise? I admit that I can’t be a saint. I’m a sinner, so don’t be naïve. You’re someone who lives in a fairy tale made by yourself. A flower that was grown under a roof would never be able to experience the cruel weather. That’s the biggest difference between me and you.”
Qi Feng approached the table slowly so that he was now standing in front of Qi Lei. He then leaned slightly forward to take a good at Qi Lei. “Your mother protected you well. I should also be envious of your personality. Your purity is something that I don’t share. We led completely different lives, but you are actually luckier than me, Qi Lei.”
“Lucky? You’ve always owned a lot of things that I don’t have. Moreover, if it was your ident.i.ty that caused you to become so cynical, to do all those things to hurt others, to lay your hand on my mother, and even the old man, then you’re too cruel! You should know that plenty of people in this world are leading harsher lives than you do, so why is it that they can uphold a good att.i.tude while you can’t?” Qi Lei gave a sneer and looked at Qi Feng coldly.
Qi Feng laughed without saying a word and gazed at Qi Lei quietly. It seemed like he had read Qi Lei as a whole. Meanwhile, Qi Lei did not utter a single word either.
After a long while, he smiled coldly and said hoa.r.s.ely, “What should I do, you say? If everyone has treated me badly, how can I convince myself to virtuously repay them and you guys? You won’t understand that feeling. Don’t always opinionatedly think that you’re the good people, that you know what righteousness and kindness are. I’m a sinner, but at least, I know—”
“At least, you know how to tell love and hatred apart, and if others treated you well, you’d repay them?” Qi Lei did not wait for Qi Feng to finish speaking, and he had already truncated his speech coldly as a sheer cold chill radiated out of his eyes.
“I know you wanted to say this, but do ask yourself if you have accomplished it yet? The man lying in the hospital now is your father, the person who gave you life! Do you dare to say that you have nothing to do with him being in the condition that he’s in now? To whom have you repaid the kindness? What has been repaid? Qi Feng, don’t deceive yourself anymore. If you were referring to Gu Lingsha and your daughter, Qi Weier, then I can tell you that Gu Lingsha couldn’t leave on time. She was arrested by the police at the airport a while ago, and she’s probably in the police station now!” Qi Lei’s deep voice became abruptly cold.
As soon as Qi Lei said that, Qi Feng squinted!
“What did you say?” There was still a cold chill in his voice, and he glared dangerously at Qi Lei.
Qi Lei closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened them. “You won’t be able to escape. No one can escape! Your right-hand man, Morrison, has long been apprehended by the American police, and Gu Lingsha has also been stopped, so you’re all alone now. Do you understand that?!”
“Shut up! Nonsense! Bullsh*t! I watched the mother-daughter duo board the car. It’s impossible for the police to have gotten them! They didn’t do anything wrong!” Qi Feng’s face dimmed at this moment while he gritted his teeth and then said.
“Don’t try to deceive yourself anymore. You should’ve foreseen this ending long ago. The person who caused all these is you. You keep saying that you love your wife and your daughter, but why didn’t you think about it for their sake? How were you able to hurt my mother and your father with such peace of mind?”
“I didn’t lay my hand on my father. The person who planned it was Morrison. It was Morrison! I don’t have the heart to bear such a crime!”
“It was because of you. Why would Morrison make the call if not because of you? You’re forever a sinner!”
“Shut the h.e.l.l up!” Qi Feng’s stern voice slashed through the air in the room, and before Qi Lei could react, he already felt something hard and cold against his temple…
