228: Chapter 226: Danger 228: Chapter 226: Danger After eating for over two hours, every dish and both boxes of beer on the table were gone.
Of course, Lengzi’s fighting spirit was the main reason.
Checking the time, it was already half-past ten.
Tangyu said, “It’s getting late, we should be heading back.”
“Go back?
Hehe, boss, you’re not going to tell me you’re already living with sister-in-law?
No wonder it wasn’t convenient for you to live with me, so that’s how it is,” Lengzi said with a smirk.
Liu Shanshan’s face turned red at the mention of living together.
“Stop talking nonsense,” Tangyu glared at Lengzi, who just grinned sheepishly.
Tangyu went to get the car.
As he was heading to the road, a black car slowly approached from not far away, not very fast.
Tangyu hadn’t noticed the car heading towards him, but as it got within two to three meters of him, the car’s engine suddenly roared furiously.
The car instantly charged like a mad bull, accelerating and slamming into Tangyu.
The distance between them was already short; with such a sudden acceleration, it was incredibly fast.
Even Tangyu frowned slightly, feeling a powerful sweep of air surging toward him.
He then realized the car was specifically targeting him and was hurtling directly at him.
“Tangyu—” Liu Shanshan froze at the unexpected turn of events and screamed.
Xu Hu and Lengzi’s eyes instantly turned frosty as they rushed toward Tangyu.
“Hmph,” Tangyu snorted.
Although the situation was extremely urgent, as he moved, the car’s hood was already close in front of him.
Tangyu reached out to slap the car, lifting off the ground as his body was flung forward by the vehicle’s momentum—an eerie sight for any onlooker.
After mitigating that terrifying impact, Tangyu then turned around, smacked the hood of the car firmly with both hands, and swept to the side to land on his feet, taking a few steps back to buffer the inertia before finally steadying himself.
The car brushed past Tangyu’s clothes as it rushed forward.
Seeing that Tangyu was unharmed, Liu Shanshan and Xu Hu’s tense nerves relaxed, with a glint of tears in Liu Shanshan’s eyes.
Lengzi, however, showed no concern on his face.
He knew such trivial danger wouldn’t harm their boss, but he was extremely angry that someone had dared to attempt to hit Tangyu with a car.
That, he couldn’t tolerate.
Lengzi chased after the car, and the driver’s expression greatly changed.
The foolproof plan had inexplicably failed, letting Tangyu dodge without a scratch—he couldn’t understand how Tangyu had managed it.
A flustered move, and he didn’t dare to look back, only to speed away.
“Damn it, trying to run away,” Lengzi cursed, picking up a rock and hurling it at the man, followed by the sound of shattering glass as the rear window of the car broke.
But that didn’t stop the car; it swiveled on the road before recovering.
Lengzi wanted to chase, but no matter how fast he was, he couldn’t catch up with a car.
Tangyu pinched a strand of Pure Yang Qi, transforming it into a sharp sword that shot out like a meteor, streaking through the air and striking directly into the rear tire of the car, causing a loud ‘bang’ as it exploded.
The tire burst, and the car instantly lost balance, sliding uncontrollably across the road and crashing into a parked vehicle at the roadside.
Both vehicles collided with a loud noise, scattering stones and debris, completely wrecking both cars.
“Hehe, still, the boss is remarkable,” Lengzi smirked and ran over, quickly grabbing a man in his late twenties who was also not lightly injured, with several cuts on his head and hands, and half his face smeared with blood, his breath weak.
Lengzi threw the man to the ground, stepping on him, and demanded, “Speak, why did you try to run my boss over?”
The man weakly met Lengzi’s gaze, looked deeply at Tangyu, and hummed without speaking.
“Trash, need a beating, huh?” Lengzi became angry, about to lash out at the man.
Tangyu stopped Lengzi, his cold gaze sweeping over the man, “You don’t need to say it.
I already know who sent you.
Today, the only ones I clashed with were Young Master Zhou, Young Master Du, and Young Master Luo.
You were sent by them, right?”
“Hmph, enough talk.
I’m in your hands now; kill or maim me as you wish.
If you don’t kill me today, I swear I’ll run you over someday.
You dodged once, but I don’t believe you can dodge a second time,” the man said fiercely.
Tangyu could see the man was just trying to embolden himself with those harsh words.
In this world, truly fearless people are few and far between, especially such a petty character who did others’ dirty work for money.
“Trash, I can’t stand to watch this anymore.
Boss, let me soften his bones first, we’ll see if his bones are harder or my fists,” Lengzi said.
Tangyu actually didn’t dare let Lengzi strike freely; if he did try to ‘soften his bones,’ he might just cripple the man.
“Don’t worry, boss, I won’t cripple him; I remember what you said.
Hehe, I have a way that will definitely make him talk,” Lengzi said.
Tangyu glanced at Lengzi and responded, “Alright, then I’ll leave it to you.”
Immediately excited, Lengzi smiled and said to Liu Shanshan, “Sister, you better not watch this; it might get a bit violent.”
“Oh,” Liu Shanshan nodded and turned away.
Lengzi grinned at the man, who felt a chill go down his spine when he saw Lengzi’s expression and began to shiver, “Hmph, if you dare touch me, I will definitely kill you.”
“Blasphemer, you dare threaten me with just a few harsh words to boost your courage; you’re really an idiot,” Lengzi sneered, grabbing the man’s wrist and then yanking it hard.
“Snap—”
It wasn’t the sound of bones breaking, but of the man’s arm dislocating.
The man’s scream was so horrific it resembled the slaughter of a pig, horrifying many onlookers who quickly started to move away, some even secretly called the police.
“Hehe, what a weakling, can’t even handle the pain.
Don’t worry, there’s more exciting stuff coming,” Lengzi grinned, his eyes flashing with disdain as he suddenly pushed the man’s arm back into place with force.
The dislocation and repositioning were excruciating, causing the man to scream repeatedly, producing a scene quite unbearable to witness.
The man’s face broke out in cold sweat, and the veins on his neck bulged prominently.
Liu Shanshan, standing nearby, was also somewhat startled; following Tangyu these days had certainly exposed her to things she had never experienced in her lifetime.
“Stop, I’ll talk, I’ll talk,” the man immediately surrendered.
Lengzi pursed his lips, threw aside the man’s arm, and said, “You should have just talked earlier, why force me to this; quickly tell me who hired you to run my boss over.
Don’t think of lying to me, I can tell.
If you dare lie, hehe, I will dislocate both your arms a hundred times each.”
The man’s lips trembled with fear; the previous pain was already unbearable, dislocating both arms a hundred times spelled certain death.
Without any hesitation, the man promptly confessed, “Young Master Chu gave me twenty thousand to run your boss over, and promised another twenty thousand if I succeeded.
It really wasn’t my fault, I was just taking money to do someone’s bidding.
If you want to retaliate, go after Young Master Chu.”
“Young Master Chu, Chu Fei?” Tangyu asked.
“Yes, yes, exactly, Chu Fei, Young Master Chu,” the man nodded hurriedly.
Tangyu hummed coldly; so, it was Chu Fei who had sent someone.
However, Tangyu doubted that Chu Fei had the courage to hire someone to target him; there must be more to it, probably connected to Zhou Tao and the others.
If Chu Fei really wanted revenge, he should have acted against him much earlier, not just this evening.
Everything was too much of a coincidence.
And knowing what kind of person Chu Fei was, Tangyu was sure he lacked the courage.
“Hand over your phone,” Tangyu commanded.
The man hastily complied, presenting his phone.
Tangyu scrolled through it and soon found the number labeled ‘Young Master Chu,’ which had been in contact a few minutes ago.
Tangyu didn’t make a call but looked around and noticed a BMW Z4 parked a few hundred meters away.
Chu Fei sat inside, using binoculars to observe the scene; he had seen everything unfold.
Chu Fei looked utterly dismayed and clenched his teeth in anger.
The plan to run Tangyu over had failed, and he had dodged the threat, which infuriated Chu Fei even more.
He immediately picked up his phone when it rang, surprised to see it was from the number he had used to contact the attacker.
Looking through the binoculars, he saw Tangyu looking towards him and placing a phone by his ear; clearly, it was Tangyu who was calling.
Realizing he’d been spotted, Chu Fei didn’t linger; he started the car and sped away.
“Hmph, such a coward, doesn’t even have the guts and still dares to send someone to run me over,” Tangyu sneered, watching Chu Fei flee and then hanging up the phone, handing it back to the man.
“Boss, what should we do now?
Should we go after this Chu Fei?
I’ve caught this blasphemer, and I can crush his bones,” Lengzi proposed.
Tangyu shook his head and replied, “We are civilized people, law-abiding citizens; let’s wait for the police to handle this man.” Then, turning to the man, Tangyu said, “You will tell the police everything truthfully when they arrive, won’t you?”
The man, feeling a cold shiver at Tangyu’s gaze, which felt like a spike stabbing him, nodded quickly, “I know, I will confess everything truthfully.”
“That’s good.
If you don’t, I have many ways to make sure you end up regretting it.
And don’t think it’s just you; I can do the same to your employer, Chu Fei,” Tangyu stated flatly, but the words chilled the man to the bone.
