As Chu Lingtian walked back towards the entrance of the Sanhe Company, he bumped into the obese bald man leading several burly men out, intending to pursue him and Guo Xiaoyan.
"Damn it, you coward, you actually dare to come back? Looks like you really want to die!"
The obese bald man sneered at Chu Lingtian with contempt, his expression extremely arrogant as he cursed.
The burly men following behind him also chuckled, none of them taking the young man in a security uniform seriously.
These self-righteous thugs were unaware that Chu Lingtian had deliberately used a fake phone call to lure Guo Xiaoyan away, intending to deal with them without any scruples.
At this moment, Chu Lingtian had a lit cigarette dangling from his lips, his hands shoved into his pockets. His usually gentle gaze had turned as sharp as a knife, and the aura emanating from him was like that of a awakened wolf king. Anyone who dared to provoke him would face a gruesome fate!
It was a pity that the obese bald man and his cronies hadn't yet sensed the terrifying change in Chu Lingtian.
"Brother Pang, that pure little beauty isn't with this kid."
One of the burly men noticed Guo Xiaoyan wasn't behind Chu Lingtian and quickly reminded him.
The obese bald man frowned and said sternly, "Chase him!"
The burly man who had reminded the obese bald man was about to give chase, but as he took a step forward, Chu Lingtian kicked him in the groin.
*Thump!*
The burly man clutched his crotch tightly, kneeling before Chu Lingtian. He trembled with pain, his face ashen. He tried to scream, but the intense pain rendered him voiceless.
The obese bald man snapped back to reality and roared, "Beat him to death!"
*Whoosh!*
The burly men charged towards Chu Lingtian, throwing punches and kicks.
*Bang! Bang! Bang...*
Without exception, all these burly men were also kicked in the groin by Chu Lingtian and fell to their knees, unable to get up.
The obese bald man was shocked to see this. He never imagined that a mere security guard like Chu Lingtian could be so skilled. What was even more terrifying was Chu Lingtian's speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness, all delivered with a cold, expressionless face.
*Whoosh!*
Just as the obese bald man, terrified out of his wits, turned to flee, Chu Lingtian grabbed his collar with his right hand and yanked him backward with force.
The obese bald man's body flew backward, more than a meter off the ground.
Chu Lingtian thrust his right knee upward, striking the obese bald man directly in the spine.
*Crack!*
The horrifying sound of bone breaking echoed.
Chu Lingtian's knee had snapped the obese bald man's spine, and he fell to the ground, screaming like a slaughtered pig. Even if he survived, he would be crippled for life, confined to a wheelchair.
*Clang!*
Chu Lingtian closed the door of Sanhe Company with his backhand, intending to enter and "beat the dog inside the house."
*Crackle!*
At this moment, other burly men in the first-floor lobby, witnessing their companions being effortlessly disabled by Chu Lingtian, rushed towards him with weapons, their shock evident.
Facing more than a dozen charging men, some armed with folding knives, others with cleavers, and still others with steel pipes and stools, Chu Lingtian took a drag from the cigarette butt clamped between his right index and middle fingers, then charged forward instead of retreating.
Subsequently, screams filled the air.
The fight lasted for about three to four minutes. All the burly men in the first-floor lobby lay on the ground, groaning in pain, none having the strength to get up and continue fighting Chu Lingtian. Chu Lingtian, however, was completely unharmed.
Chu Lingtian re-inserted the cigarette between his right index and middle fingers into his mouth and glanced at the middle-aged woman who was frozen with fear behind the service counter. His expression was impassive, and he said nothing as he headed straight for the second floor, towards General Manager Yang Ye's office.
At this moment, the obese bald man and his men, who had been beaten to a pulp and were in excruciating pain, were filled with both terror and deep regret.
They were terrified by how a mere security guard like Chu Lingtian could possess such formidable and terrifying combat skills – they were practically monstrous.
They regretted mocking Chu Lingtian, underestimating him, and provoking this man who, despite his unassuming appearance, wielded such ruthless methods.
Meanwhile, in his second-floor office, Yang Ye was leisurely watching pornographic movies on his computer, fantasizing about the obese bald man and his crew eliminating Chu Lingtian, and then bringing Guo Xiaoyan to his office, where he would have her bend over his desk for his pleasure.
*Crash!*
The office door was pushed open from the outside.
Yang Ye assumed it was the obese bald man and his gang who had succeeded. The most intense part of the movie was playing, so he kept his eyes glued to the screen and casually said:
"First, strip this little beauty's pants. Leave her underwear. I'll come personally to explore her most mysterious and alluring places after I finish this movie."
A cold smirk played on Chu Lingtian's lips as he walked up to Yang Ye and grabbed his hair with his right hand.
Yang Ye startled and instinctively tried to look up, but Chu Lingtian yanked his hair, smashing his head against the desk three times violently before releasing him.
Instantly, Yang Ye's forehead was gushing blood, and he collapsed to the floor, screaming in agony.
Chu Lingtian walked to Yang Ye's seat and sat down. Looking at Yang Ye, who was clutching his head and wailing on the floor, he asked coldly, "General Manager Yang, I recall you saying earlier that you wouldn't pay even if you had the money, and that there was nothing we could do about it, right?"
"You... it's you?"
Yang Ye heard Chu Lingtian's voice. The intense pain in his head had subsided slightly. He looked up, his face and head covered in blood, and his expression was one of disbelief.
"What, you're surprised I came back?" Chu Lingtian sneered, then added, "Of course, you're the esteemed General Manager of Sanhe Company, a well-known figure in Dachang City. You wouldn't possibly take a mere security guard like me seriously. Otherwise, you wouldn't have challenged me earlier, saying I could try something if I had the guts. But I'm doing something now, so what can you do to me?"
"You little bastard, you're asking for death! I have so many brothers outside. If I shout, they'll rush in and tear you to shreds!"
Yang Ye assumed Chu Lingtian had quietly sneaked into his office and threatened him through gritted teeth.
Chu Lingtian smiled and said, "Then shout."
"Help! Help! Help!"
Yang Ye shouted three times with all his might towards the door, full of confidence. But there was no response. He was instantly dumbfounded, his gaze shifting to Chu Lingtian with a look of horror and disbelief.
