The two bodyguards picked Yin Zhongjun up and made him kneel steadily on the ground.
Huo Shao Ting was looking through his phone and saw a contact labeled "Sugar Daddy" had transferred 200,000 to him.
"Will you tell me yourself? Or should I investigate?"
"If you tell me yourself, perhaps I can send you to the police station sooner, where it'd be better than being here with me."
His voice was icy and sinister.
Despite his dizzy, swollen head, Yin Zhongjun heard him loud and clear.
He didn't want to go to jail or be caught by Huo Shao Ting.
It was all because that slut Lu Zheng didn't cooperate with him!
If she had obediently taken out money, how could he have beaten her?
"It seems you're not convinced."
Huo Shao Ting sneered coldly and signaled to the bodyguards to make their move.
Yin Zhongjun had already been roughed up once all over. Now everywhere on his body ached.
These were professionally trained men. Each blow was particularly painful, yet he couldn't pass out!
Huo Shao Ting ignored him and had his men restore all the chat history between Yin Zhongjun and the "Sugar Daddy" contact.
"Where's the video?"
Seeing Yin Zhongjun still unwilling to talk, Huo Shao Ting took a pair of pliers from one of the bodyguards.
"What...what are you going to do? Ah!"
Yin Zhongjun looked at him approaching in horror, body shivering uncontrollably.
Soon his screams became exceptionally blood-curdling.
Huo Shao Ting looked at the pliers covered in bloody teeth and said ominously, "I'll ask once more. For each time you don't answer, I'll yank out a tooth."
"When your teeth are gone, next come the fingernails."
"Don't worry, I'll also make sure you enter the police station intact for interrogation. The Huo family has enough money for that."
"Once it's fitted, next tooth gets yanked."
Yin Zhongjun looked at him in horror, as if staring at the face of death.
He trembled all over. Huo Shao Ting took the chance to ask him again.
Another shriek filled the room!
Over the past few years, Yin Zhongjun had fooled and swindled people, making him ruthless.
So his willpower was relatively strong, but it dispersed like dust before Huo Shao Ting.
In less than an hour, he had confessed everything cleanly.
Including all the people he had scammed over the years and whose information he still had. He remembered it all clear as day.
"Mr. Huo...I know I was wrong! Please spare me..."
Yin Zhongjun knelt on the ground bawling, mouth full of blood dripping down continuously in red strings.
He was whistling badly through the gaps, but was still understandable.
"I really didn't dare make moves on Zheng...Lu Zheng before. But two months ago I added someone."
"He transferred me 2 million upfront and back, and said I could get another 500,000 after finishing the job."
"Plus...Lu Zheng must have money. So I got tempted."
"This really wasn't my scheme. Even if you gave me ten guts I wouldn't have dared!"
"It was because the debt collectors were too vicious! Please don't send me to the police station, or else I'm done for..."
Yin Zhongjun wept pitifully, trembling as he explained and begged not to be delivered into the police station.
Huo Shao Ting already got what he wanted and ignored his pleas, ordering the bodyguards to gag the man and haul him off to the authorities.
Seeing this pig-headed version of Yin Zhongjun, even Lu Hong couldn't help but twitch his face. Wasn't this beating too savage?
But given Huo Shao Ting's personality, leaving the guy alive and in one functioning piece to dump at the station was already quite courteous.
"Get medical to treat him first. I'll personally interrogate later."
With his aunt at stake, he didn't dare be careless.
Upon realizing he was delivered into police custody, Yin Zhongjun's heart turned to ash.
Just earlier he had been cursing Lu Zheng. Now he cursed that anonymous "Sugar Daddy," full of regret.
If he could make a move on Lu Zheng, he would've acted long ago. Why wait until now?
