Chapter 1777 No Choice
Situ Jing was obviously very satisfied when he saw Situ Jue finally threw down the gun. The smile on his face was unprecedentedly proud. This seemed to be the first time that he defeated Situ Jue effortlessly, and defeated the most promising heir in the Situ family. He almost wanted to show off this small victory to the whole world in an instant.
He stood up with a smile on his face and patted Situ Jue on the shoulder, "Xiao Jue, actually you are right, I don't want Lu Xingchen's life, all I want is the Dijing Group, all the power of the Situ family in the imperial capital, and a happy old age where no one can hurt me or threaten my happiness."
Situ Jue sighed softly. At this moment, after Situ Jing completely grasped his weakness, the old guy was finally willing to admit his selfishness.
He shook his head helplessly, and said to Situ Jing, "If you release Lu Xingchen, I can give you whatever you want."
Situ Jing smiled and shook his head, obviously not agreeing with Situ Jue's words, "Xiao Jue, do you think I'm stupid? If I release Lu Xingchen, what else can I have to restrain you? So, in the short term, I will neither release Lu Xingchen nor you. I need both of you to fall into my hands at the same time, until I get the Dijing Group and restore my status in the Situ family, and then wait until the space channel is opened, you can be free."
Situ Jue smiled helplessly, a little bit embarrassed He said to Situ Jing, "Grandpa, do you really think I'm a fool? If you get the Dijing Group, restore your position in the Situ family, and even open the space-time channel, then what are Lu Xingchen and I to you? We are just a stain that you want to erase in a hurry. How can you let us go? I'm not a child, why do you say such words to deceive me?" Situ Jing heard this, his face was embarrassed, obviously this was indeed his truest thought, as long as all the goals were achieved, Lu Xingchen and Situ Jue had no use value, he would not hesitate to erase the two from this world. There was no other way. For what he had gained, for his future status and glory, he would not have any reluctance or sympathy. But now that Situ Jue had guessed his thoughts, he could not admit it frankly, so he had to argue, "Xiao Jue, you also said that we are negotiating. You are proposing conditions to me, and I am negotiating conditions with you. If you can't agree to my conditions and don't have any basic trust in me, then I think that we are just wasting our time standing here? Xiao Jue, the business world is like a battlefield. You have no choice. Believe me, or kill me and lose Lu Xingchen forever. Make your choice."
Situ Jue He would not choose to lose Lu Xingchen, even if there was only a slight possibility, so he had to compromise again, "Okay, Grandpa, I believe you, what do you want me to do now?"
Situ Jue was obviously very satisfied, smiled, and said in a good mood, "I don't want you to do anything, you know? This villa is built very special. If you don't mind, I want you to be a guest in the basement for a while. When everything is over, I will let you out and let you reunite with Lu Xingchen. How about it?"
Situ Jue's face turned colder. Although he knew it was a trap, he knew he had no choice.
