Chapter 36: Truly Dare to Act

Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Truly Dare to Act

Chen Dehai's expression finally changed from its initial calm to a grave seriousness, his brows furrowing as if clouds of a thunderstorm were gathering, ready to unleash lightning at any moment.

"What do you mean by my son? Feng'er had a grudge with you?"

Yang Chen shook his head, "Too troublesome to explain. Simply put, without him, you could have lived a bit longer."

"Young man, you seem to not understand your situation."

"Oh?" Yang Chen had now walked to within five or six meters of the desk and stopped, smiling as he asked, "What situation?"

Chen Dehai clapped his hands, and the dozen black-suited bodyguards behind him simultaneously and uniformly drew their Type 80 automatic pistols from the inner sides of their suits. A row of dark gun barrels instantly pointed at Yang Chen.

It wasn't hard to imagine that in less than half a second, if they all pulled their triggers simultaneously, Yang Chen would be riddled with bullets.

"You are indeed a good fighter," Chen Dehai said leisurely, playing with a jade thumb ring on his right thumb, speaking slowly. "I initially planned to have someone like you work for me. But you don't know how to appreciate favors. Young man... you wouldn't think my men are not equipped with firearms, would you?"

"Do you think you're smart?" Yang Chen couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Dehai's eyes gleamed with a hint of malice, "At least I'm not stupid enough to take on over a dozen gunmen single-handedly."

"What if I do dare to act?" Yang Chen asked curiously.

Chen Dehai, now furious, slammed his hand on the desk, "I won't indulge in your nonsense! I'll tell you this: you have two choices. First, explain everything clearly—why you showed up here tonight—and I might consider how to deal with you. Second, you eat my men's bullets and find out for yourself..."

"I'll also give you two choices," Yang Chen said with a playful smile, glancing at the row of armed bodyguards. "First, point your guns at this old guy, and I'll let you live. Second, you all die..."

"It seems there's no room for negotiation..."

Chen Dehai's anger was on the verge of eruption, and he was about to order the shooting when suddenly he felt a chill at the back of his head!

"Tiger! You?!"

As the bald man pulled the trigger, the two bullets that would have ended his life shot harmlessly into the air!

After the first burst of gunfire, the rest of the gunmen were horrified to find that the target they wanted to eliminate had somehow moved behind ten of them!

In an instant, Yang Chen stealthily snatched two Type 80 pistols from the nearest gunmen, as if the guns had grown eyes, immediately pointing them at the surrounding bodyguards!

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A series of gunshots rang out, and the dozen or so bodyguards who had just turned to fire again fell to the ground, each with a bullet precisely through their temples!

It all happened so quickly, like a movie fast-forwarded, making it impossible to see clearly and leaving everyone bewildered.

The bald man, Tiger, felt that in the second after he pulled the trigger, the entire scene had changed. Those who were standing had fallen, and those who should have fallen were still standing!

A drop of cold sweat rolled down his cheek. Tiger turned around in shock to see Yang Chen, standing there casually with a relaxed smile. He swallowed hard, feeling as if his heart had stopped. It seemed like he was dreaming. How had this man in front of him achieved such a miracle?!

Yang Chen, as if having done something trivial, casually tossed the pistols aside and kicked Chen Dehai's lifeless body to the ground. He then pulled up a chair and sat down leisurely.

"What's your name?" Yang Chen asked with a gentle smile.

Tiger snapped out of his daze and immediately stepped aside, prostrating himself on the ground, feeling a deep sense of reverence. Trembling, he replied, "I... I'm Zhang Hu. People on the street call me Tiger."

"How long have you been with Chen Dehai?"

"Eight years..." Tiger finally breathed normally and answered cautiously.

"Then you must be one of his senior subordinates. Why did you trust me and believe I could win in such a situation?"

Tiger hesitated for a moment before raising his head, his face showing signs of hatred. "I gave my life to Chen Dehai, helping him fight and expand his territory. But his damned son, Chen Feng, drugged and raped my only sister... And he did other despicable things to her too. Chen Dehai promised me a good future for her, and I believed him at first. But Chen Feng is not even human!

He treated my sister like dirt, only playing with her when he remembered and tossing her aside when he was bored. My sister used to be an innocent high school girl, but now... now she's completely changed. They destroyed my only family. I've wanted to kill them for a long time!" As he spoke, Tiger's eyes reddened, and tears the size of beans streamed down his face.
