However, Zheng Shifu clearly did not anticipate that his kneeling and begging Yang Xiao for mercy would not allow him to completely escape from Moyu Biotechnology Company.
Not only that, after he had knelt and begged, Yang Xiao made a tremendously excessive demand of him.
This demand was something he simply could not accept, and it even provoked him into considering confronting Yang Xiao at all costs.
After all, in his view, Yang Xiao would never dare to actually kill him since, ultimately, there are still legal constraints in society now.
So, he could resist Yang Xiao. If he resisted, the worst outcome would be that Yang Xiao would torment him—just some torment, which he could endure by gritting his teeth; preserving everything he had worked hard for in Tiandong City was clearly the most important thing.
Otherwise, being driven out of his hometown would feel even worse than death to him.
