Chapter 1973: Spat Out
Wu Zongxu ate his prison rice in an extremely good mood. It was quite delicious.
However, halfway through his meal, he felt his stomach begin to violently spasm.
The intense pain made his brain start to flood with blood. Soon, he could taste something acidic in the back of his throat and feel it gushing out of his mouth.
Wu Zongxu subconsciously used his hand to try to hold back the stream of liquid. Only then did he realize he was not vomiting out the food he had just eaten, but spewing out a black liquid.
The liquid was sticky and smelled like blood.
Wu Zongxu’s head buzzed painfully.
He had been poisoned!
He had been poisoned!
Why had he been poisoned?
Xu Binren actually dared to harm him? Was he not afraid that he would spread the video?
Even though he did not have many friends he could trust, he had not given the video to anyone. He had hidden it under his bed, and it should still be there. How could Xu Binren dare to kill him?
...No!
This was not right!
This could not be Xu Binren’s work!
Wu Zongxu was a smart person. After determining that Xu Binren would not have done this, he immediately thought about Lan Weisong.
Lan Weisong was a member of the Shi family. He wanted to take down the Wu family and the Xu family. Just now, Xu Binren’s people had come looking for him, so if he died, everyone would suspect Xu Binren.
Wu Jingzhong was arrested because of the subcontracting matter. Xu Binren was found to have had private contact with him. After Wu Jingzhong was arrested, Xu Binren was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he was trying to kill Wu Zongxu. This way, Lan Weisong could kill two birds, the Wu and Xu families, with one stone.
Lan Weisong was too ruthless!
He had not even sent people to the prison to look for Wu Zongxu. He had just poisoned him and framed Xu Binren.
He previously said that Wu Zongxu could work for the Shi family in the future. Everything he said had been a lie!
He had to be alive to continue executing his plan.
If he died, there was no evidence to keep his father in prison.
He was dying, and it was supposedly Xu Binren who killed him.
The Wu family and the Xu family were mortal enemies. Lan Weisong had not gotten involved, as far as anyone else was aware.
Even after this incident, Lan Weisong never spoke to him.
Lan Weisong was so ruthless!
He was so ruthless!
“Someone! Anyone! Help! Someone is trying to kill me! Help!”
Wu Zongxu yelled at the iron gates of his room in despair. However, not only was his stomach hurting, but his abdomen and chest were also cramping up violently too. Even if he gathered up all his strength, his screams only came out as rasps.
Prison guards should have been stationed at the entrance of every cell, but he knew that there were none outside his door.
Because Lan Weisong wanted him to die.
Even if he shouted until his throat burst, no one would pay attention to him.
Wu Zongxu was in despair. He did not understand how things had suddenly gotten to this point.
He never thought he would die so suddenly. He always thought he was a born winner, someone three steps ahead of the game at all times.
The Wu family was shrewd, but his schemes had fooled them.
He thought that if he could outsmart the richest family in Sea District, everyone else would be a piece of cake. How could anyone be smarter than him?
That was why he had always been very confident. He had always believed that he was a winner.
However, he now realized that he was wrong.
He had always been under his father’s wing and had the support of the Wu family. His father and his family had never doubted him because they trusted him. That was why he had been able to achieve the things he had achieved. It was because of this trust that he had been able to scheme against the Wu family ever since he was only eight years old.
