At that moment, Xiang Jinxi was like fish out of water, as he mouth gaped but could not speak.

After a moment, he finally realized something, and faltered a few steps back.

“You did that on purpose...Did you...The deal with Bruce...”

“Congratulations. You struck the jackpot.”

Huo Yunting grinned menacingly, “Weren’t you looking for someone with sufficient capability to work with you? So I had introduced Bruce to you, don’t have to thank me.”

Xiang Jinxi felt like he was being strangled, as even breathing became difficult as his handsome face was as pale as a corpse.

“I don’t believe...”

Just a moment ago he was in the skies, dreaming about defeating Huo Yunting and getting his revenge.

And the next second, he was chained and pulled down hard into the mud.

For such a sudden reversal of fortunes, even Xiang Jinxi could not accept it.

“Heh.”

He just did not know when to give up.

Huo Yunting snapped his finger, and Huo Li immediately handed over a stack of documents as he flipped over them one-by-one.

“This are all evidence of your contacts with Bruce, and also the photograph of his men that you had allowed to wander about in the port. I have more than enough, and don’t mind letting you have a good look at them.”

With a fling of his hand, the white sheets of paper alongside colored photographs rain down across the room.

Xiang Jinxi reflexively held his hand out to grab one of the photographs.

It was a picture of Bruce sending him off, as the two shook hands, signaling the start of the partnership.

One the picture was his rare smile, and a swagger than was beyond words, and for Xiang Jinxi at this moment, it was nothing but a big joke!

The last shred of hope was extinguished within him, as raised his pale face up, and roared. “This was your plan all along!”

Huo Yunting raised his eyebrow. “I don’t deny it.”

His plan had already started long ago, as he pounded at Xiangyuan relentlessly without care of the cost, and that kept Xiang Jinxi in a state of constant anxiousness, and that led to his loss of cool.

And when Bruce had looked for him, he had not thought far and wide and immediately accepted his offer.

And that port project, was just the... opportunity.

The moment Xiang Jinxi agreed to work with Bruce, he had totally lost.

As for his feigned defeat, it was just a delaying tactic, to allow Huo Li to tail Bruce and take photos for evidence, leaving Xiang Jinxi without any recourse to deny his involvement.

And in this plan, every planned scenario had been completed without a hitch, without anyone noticing.

Huo Yunting stepped forward, a smile was etched on his face, yet his eyes was chilly and a smirk started to appear.

“Xiang Jinxi, it’s over for you.”

Xiang Jinxi stared at him for a moment, and had instead calmed down, as a complicated glint glossed over his blood-shot eyes.

All his anger, helplessness, unwillingness to accept the truth, and appreciation all devolved into mere indifference.

“I admit, you are a crafty one, and I admit, I was careless, but as long as I live, I won’t give up!”

“Is that so?” Huo Yunting chuckled, and raised his eyebrow. “You think I’ll actually give you another chance?”

“...”

Unwilling as he may be, Xiang Jinxi had no other recourse.

He had lost.

Totally lost.

One of the official from the Internal Security stepped forward and pulled out a special cuff as he put it on Xiang Jinxi, before thanking Huo Yunting.

“Mr Huo. Our thanks. If not for your help, the Rondel Gang would have extended their claws into our country, and god knows how many citizens will be their victims. My men are already on the way to arrest him, he won’t get away!”
