Chapter 284: Iron Bar-I

Waking up, the man found himself tied in a chair. He felt his body aching, the wounds he received was enough to make him faint once again. Taking a good look through his blued swollen eyes, he found himself inside a narrowed room with a very scarce light. In front of him was an iron bar that was often use for jails and the rest of the place were blocked by molded floors.

He struggled to free himself but with the wounds he receive, moving instead made him feel the pain biting to his broken ribs and legs. Where was he? Was his question. He remembered to tell to dim witted maid to bring their target, Ms. Yu to the pond where the security lack the most and kidnap her. Yet the maid did the opposite thing and instead wounded their target. Then, the man finally recalled of how he met a suspicious young man who knock him out.

Was the young man their target's bodyguard? He remembered the report said the woman to have two bodyguards but the recent news he received was that the second bodyguard retired. But those question wasn't important now. The man looked down at the rope and knew it wouldn't be easy to release his hand to decide using his legs when he heard a muffled sound of scream came from the wall beside him. Following the screams was a sound of languid footsteps like a person who was taking an afternoon walk on their garden.

He wasn't the only one who was captured? Hearing the screaming he noted there was also someone else locked on the cell beside his. But who was the person that captured him? The young man who knocked him up? Yet to his answers, the sounds of the footsteps stopped and at the same time he saw the black shoes before looking up to see a different face. His eyes stopped in horror and from his mouth a name escaped. "Wang Li Lei!"

Hearing his name called by the man who was responsible for Xiao Yun's injury he eyes narrowed. Whenever he met a new person if the instantly knew his name would only lead to two things. First they know him as the CEO of Wang Corporation which was rare due the lack of his face exposure to the world where the second was they know him as the Dragon Group's successor. This one, he was sure it was the latter case.

Jang Hyun unlocked the door, when Wang Li Lei entered with a step the man tried to falter a step behind only to realize he was bounded on the chair. The gag on his mouth made it harder for him look behind as the course material scrape his wounded skin. "Who sent you?" Wang Li Lei asked. He didn't have the time to wait now when Xiao Yun was wounded due to this man and the maid who colluded to kidnap Xiao Yun. The man let out an unknown screaming. Jang Hyun then saw Wang Li Lei hinting him to untie the gag and did his work.

"Pwah!" The man felt his parched throats stung as from the wound he revived when Chengye choked him. Wang Li Lei placed his index finger to the trigger of his gun, pointing it straight to the man's head. "Who sent you?"

"No one sent me!" The man yelled the words Jang Hyun expected. When someone like him was captured their first words would be nothing than 'I don't know anything'. Taking a glance toward Wang Li Lei before he saw the man's face who was stricken by fear from Wang Li Lei. "Last question, did you see who attacked you?"

"I don't know!" Wang Li Lei could tell the words he said was truth. Nevertheless, he pulled the trigger and directly shot the man's head. As the gun rang and echoed to the jail hall, blood splattered everywhere reaching some to his clothes like his words. Some dripped down to make a small pond of bloods. The man had his eyes opened as he died, light had disappeared from his eyes only to show a deep black color of the dead.

As he was used to killing, Wang Li Lei didn't have an emotion to sympathize with the deads. Especially to the man who resulted in an injury which could have killed Xiao Yun. He had killed over tens of people to the point he didn't know how much he had killed since he was taken in by Suan Lung. And where he believe Xiao Yun would accept him even as she knew how mountain of bodies had piled behind him, he didn't want to tell her of the murderers he did.

It was that he was afraid she would be disgusted of him, he knew she would never do such a thing. His reason was simple, it was only so she wouldn't have to know the little details which wasn't important to his eyes.

Leaving the body of the man, he went with Jang Hyun to the cell right on the man's left side where the maid who had pushed was tied in the same suit as the man who had died. With the same murderous eyes and blood freshly dribbling from his suit cuff, Wang Li Lei repeated his question to the maid. "Who sent you?" His voice was low and calm, making the maid to almost faint from fear.

To her eyes, half of Wang Li Lei's face was veiled by shadow. The flickering light shone over his face to only light his eerie eyes made it creepier that she couldn't speak a single sound from her mouth. Seeing Wang Li Lei moving his silver guns, she felt the other man beside Wang Li Lei had untied the gag on her mouth and raise her voice.

"He!" Her quivering eyes moved to the wall where the man was. "That man was the one who ordered me! I didn't want to but he threatened to kill my brother if I don't do what he ordered! I'm sorry Master Wang! I really don't have any choice!" Her voice broke and screeched. Her fingernails dig deeper to the back of the chair every time she tried to stop her fear.
