As expected.
Man's plans are no match for those of heaven.
Qi Lingfeng now wanted to let go, but he had no way to turn the situation around; his true mistake was in seeking out Qiao Xiguan's cooperation. Qiao Xiguan was not under his control at all, and even though he was vaguely beginning to understand something, everything had already been set in stone. He had no choice but to steel himself and believe that Qiao Xiguan was really looking to collaborate with him.
Besides.
Although he didn't fully understand Qiao Xiguan, he also knew that there was no deep hatred between them that would drive Qiao Xiguan to the point of wanting him dead, nor did he believe that Qiao Xiguan was as cruel as he was, using such despicable means to get what he didn't deserve.
"Qi Lingfeng, if there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up," Qiao Xiguan said indifferently.
Qi Lingfeng clenched his cell phone tightly, "Do you think I should trust you?"
Qiao Xiguan chuckled, "It's up to you."
