Chapter 12 There's No Way Out Anymore (1/4)

The last time I visited Liu Hong's house, she deliberately slipped me a historical publication from the Republican era, and then immediately accused Liu Hong's family of having counter-revolutionary tendencies and possessing prohibited books.

As a result, once the investigation by the Red Armband team is completed, her entire family will be sent to the countryside for reform, and then no one will be able to compete with her husband for the position of deputy factory director.

At that time, she and Liu Hong will be worlds apart.

Thinking of Liu Hong's tragic future, Wang Guifen laughed triumphantly.

Soon, the door to Liu Hong's house opened, and a man with a red armband walked towards the door.

Seeing the group of people wearing red armbands made Wang Guifen even more excited and agitated.

To Wang Guifen's surprise, the red-armbanded men didn't escort Liu Hong away. Instead, Liu Hong hesitated and followed behind them, watching them leave.

What happened?

Why didn't the Red Armband members arrest Liu Hong?

As Hongxiu got into the car and left, Liu Hong, who was not far away, also noticed Wang Guifen hiding in the corner.

Liu Hong walked towards Wang Guifen step by step.

"Liu Hong..." Wang Guifen was even more embarrassed, but she forced a smile.

The next second, Liu Hong raised her hand and slapped Wang Guifen hard across the face!

A crisp slap rang out, Wang Guifen's face burned, her head was knocked to the side, and even her ears were ringing.

"Are you crazy? Why did you hit me?!" Wang Guifen covered her swollen and red face, staring at Liu Hong in disbelief.

The next second, Liu Hongyang raised his hand and slapped her face hard again.

The slap caused Wang Guifen's head to tilt, her eyes to slant, and blood to flow from the corner of her mouth.

"I hit you because you deserved it!" Liu Hong sneered, her icy eyes fixed on Wang Guifen. "I treated you like a best friend. I always thought of you first when I had something good to eat, and I always shared good things with you first. But how did you treat me in the end?! You actually plotted against me for your own selfish desires. You actually wanted to ruin my whole family!"

"I never imagined that my best friend would try to kill my whole family!" Liu Hong sneered.

"How did you know?" Wang Guifen stared intently at Liu Hong, incredulous.

How could Liu Hong know that her plan had been ruined before it was even started?

Did Liu Hong suspect him from the very beginning?

"If you don't want anyone to know, then don't do it in the first place," Liu Hong said with a sneer. "I never imagined you would resort to such dirty tricks against me! Were all the feelings we had for each other all these years just a lie?!"

"I only regret that my plan wasn't thorough enough, and I only regret that I couldn't accomplish this." Wang Guifen's face showed no regret, only frustration at not being able to do it. She gritted her teeth and whispered.

"Just because your husband is getting a promotion, you're trying to ruin our whole family to prevent him from getting it?" Liu Hong stared at her in disbelief. "You're absolutely unreasonable!"

"So what if it is?" Wang Guifen sneered. "I've disliked you for a long time. Do you know how much it hurts me every time you brag about how happy and perfect your family is? We went to the same school, so why are you doing so well? Why am I inferior to you in every way?! I'm not reconciled!"

"Even if you're unwilling, you can't harm others for your own selfish desires!" Liu Hong stared at her with eyes full of disappointment. "I've always considered you a good friend, but I never expected you to show such a true face!"
