Ling Tian looked at Qiang Zi on the hospital bed. Although he wore a mask, Qiang Zi could feel that it was mocking him.
“You’re feeling lost, aren’t you? You’ve done too many wicked deeds, and you don’t know who you’ve offended, right?”
Hearing this, Qiang Zi was extremely shocked. He hadn’t expected this man to see through his thoughts.
Little did he know, Ling Tian was a master of psychology, and his several mentors were top-tier players in manipulating people’s minds.
Ling Tian saw through people like Qiang Zi with great clarity.
“Let me remind you, kid, you’ve got some nerve! What kind of business wouldn’t you dare to take? What wicked things wouldn’t you dare to do?
Qiao Dahua, that scoundrel, is so rotten that oil oozes from his head and pus from his soles. You even gave him terrible advice? And you dared to target the welfare home!
Do you even know what a welfare home is? How pitiful those children are? You actually went after them?
What, you even beat up the welfare home staff and threw dead animals into the compound?
I never expected you to have so much malice in you! It seems that making you defecate for two days wasn’t enough. I should make you defecate some more.”
“It was you! It was you who did this!”
“That’s right, it was your grandpa! How do you feel now, having expelled all that bad stuff from your stomach? Much better, isn’t it?
If you don’t feel satisfied enough, that’s no problem. I can continue to indulge you, give you more medicine, and let you keep defecating until your intestines come out…”
“Stop talking, I beg you, please stop! What do you want to let me go!”
“Heh heh, you’re a smart person. That’s very good. I like dealing with smart people. The most important thing when dealing with smart people is knowing when to advance and when to retreat!
Just tell me, how can I let you go?”
“I also came from a welfare home. I don’t want anyone to harm the welfare home.
If, in the future, any more trouble arises concerning the Love Welfare Home, regardless of whether it’s your doing or not, I will hold you accountable. Do you understand?”
“This… this isn’t fair. I haven’t done anything…”
“Heh heh, who told you to come up with so many bad ideas?
If you hadn’t targeted the welfare home, today wouldn’t have happened.
In other words, if Qiao Dahua tries any underhanded tactics against the welfare home in the future, I will blame you!”
“What you’re doing is unfair. Why should we take the blame for things we didn’t do!” Qiang Zi said with some anger.
“Heh heh, this world is a jungle where the strong prey on the weak. There is no fairness!
You think the welfare home is weak, so you can act with impunity towards them.
But in my eyes, you’re no different from a weakling!”
Qiang Zi felt extremely humiliated. He really wanted to jump out of bed right now and kill Ling Tian with a knife, but he could do nothing but talk.
This feeling of being at the mercy of others was unbearable!
“Alright, it’s just not bothering them anymore, I promise!”
As the saying goes, a wise man doesn’t fight when the odds are against him. Qiang Zi knew very well that he had to concede for now and get through the night.
Once he escaped this predicament, he could gather his subordinates and settle the score with Ling Tian.
He would definitely get back what he lost!
As for the welfare home, he wouldn’t let them off either. Once his body recovered, he would deal with this kid and then take even more brutal revenge on the welfare home.
“Qiang Zi, I’m not a fool. I can see that you’re plotting to appease me for now, and then, once you’re free, you’ll retaliate against me and the welfare home.
Am I right?”
Qiang Zi was completely stunned by Ling Tian’s words. He was bewildered. Was this guy a mind reader? How could he know what he was thinking?
“Qiang Zi, you’re too naive. Do you think that just because you do things secretly, I won’t know?
You claim to be an orphan, but in reality, your parents are alive and living a comfortable life on an island in the south.
You also claim to have no children and no attachments, but in reality, you have two mistresses, and they have given you two sons and one daughter.
You think by hiding them in the suburbs of Jiangshan City, I wouldn’t know?”
Upon hearing this, Qiang Zi’s pupils contracted sharply. For people like them who operated in the underworld, their families were their weaknesses.
Those who were lone wolves with no parents, no children, and no wives were the most difficult to deal with and the most awe-inspiring.
Qiang Zi had cultivated this image among his subordinates for years, and his family was well hidden.
He rarely contacted his parents, only secretly transferring money to their accounts.
He also met his mistresses secretly whenever he slipped away.
Even Qiang Zi’s subordinates didn’t know about these things, but he never expected that they would be dug up. This person knew his situation like the back of his hand. How could he possibly retaliate?
“Qiang Zi, let’s get this straight. If anything happens to the welfare home, you and your family will pay with your lives. I’m serious!”
Ling Tian spoke with an extremely calm tone, but in Qiang Zi’s ears, it sounded like a devil’s decree.
At the same time, Ling Tian reached for a fruit knife by the bedside. The gleaming fruit knife dangled in front of Qiang Zi, striking fear into his heart.
However, what terrified him even more was that Ling Tian, right before his eyes, began to break the fruit knife with his bare hands.
The stainless steel fruit knife was snapped into pieces, one by one.
The perfectly good fruit knife was broken into about ten pieces by Ling Tian, who then tossed the fragments onto the bedside table.
“See? I can even break this fruit knife. Your bones, and those of your family, are probably not as strong as this fruit knife.
You see, I’m well-informed, I know your secrets, and I’m also very strong. I can even break a knife. So, I think you’re a smart person, and you should make your choice!”
“Brother, please let me go. I promise you, I will never trouble the welfare home again,” Qiang Zi said anxiously.
“You say you won’t trouble the welfare home, but what if Qiao Dahua does?”
“Then I’ll break his legs! If he goes once, I’ll break one leg; if he goes twice, I’ll break both!”
“Good, you said it. I’ll give you one chance!
I will be watching your actions closely. Don’t even think about making any small moves.
Of course, if you want to move your family, that’s not impossible, but I will consider it an offense to me!”
