Chapter 105: Chapter 105: Use Your Brain
"Suspicion?" Yang Chen sneered. "What's there to doubt about my identity? Since you know my address, you must have checked my background, which is crystal clear. There's nothing more to say."
"An open enemy is better than a false friend. The information from the police department can often be unreliable. You know it, and I know it," Fang Zhongping's gaze was sharp, showing the confidence of someone long accustomed to high positions.
Yang Chen remained unperturbed. "So, Secretary Fang, what do you think I am?"
Fang Zhongping said, "I have a question. Why is it that every time my daughter is with you, something happens? The first time, she was hit by a car, the second time, she was attacked by unidentified individuals, and you were present on both occasions."
The implication was clear. It was insinuated that Yang Chen had intricate ties to the attackers, even suggesting he was the mastermind behind it all, with the motive being to get close to Tangtang, gain her trust, and execute even more horrifying attacks.
Yang Chen was aware of Tangtang's situation, with Dongxing's involvement, as Zhou Dongcheng, that "handsome" man, had already confessed. But Yang Chen wasn't foolish enough to blurt it out for no reason. Sometimes, it's better to feign ignorance to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"I didn't do any of those things," Yang Chen shrugged helplessly.
"I hope it's not you, but who can guarantee?" Fang Zhongping sneered.
Yang Chen pondered for a moment and said, "I currently don't have any direct evidence to prove my innocence, but I'm also not interested in collecting such evidence."
"Don't you want to clear your name? Or perhaps you simply can't?" Fang Zhongping pressed.
Yang Chen chuckled, "Secretary Fang, it seems you've overlooked a possibility."
"What?"
"I don't care!"
Yang Chen clapped his hands on the sofa, laughing as he said, "Whether I'm innocent or suspicious, whether you doubt me or trust me, it doesn't matter to me! Let's not even talk about whether I've done anything or not. Even if I were the mastermind behind it all, what can you do to me? What do you want?"
For the first time in his life, Fang Zhongping heard someone speak so brazenly in front of him, utterly disregarding him, disdainful of all the wealth, status, and honor he represented!
In fact, after hearing this, Fang Zhongping felt a bit dazed.
After a long silence, Fang Zhongping's expression turned cold as he said, "Yang Chen, do you know that youthful arrogance often leads to dire consequences?"
"Who I act arrogant in front of depends on the person. Am I really arrogant? At least you, a petty official I don't even know, I have no interest in talking to about these things." Yang Chen deliberately elongated the word "petty."
"You're testing my tolerance..." Fang Zhongping's voice grew low, with a hint of anger in his eyes. He couldn't tolerate such a young, unknown person disrespecting him so blatantly.
Yang Chen's smile faded, replaced by a serious tone. "You were the one who first put on a sour face. I never pick a fight for no reason."
"Do you really think I won't dare to touch you? Your suspicion is enough to get you into the police station for a while. If I'm determined, I can even keep you in jail for several years, ensuring my daughter's safety." Fang Zhongping spoke confidently, believing that in the face of absolute power, Yang Chen would yield.
Unfortunately, he was mistaken.
Yang Chen laughed abruptly, stood up leisurely from the sofa, stretched lazily, then provocatively beckoned at Fang Zhongping. "Secretary Fang, your words and actions make me feel like you're just a wet-behind-the-ears kid. I don't know how you became the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, but I believe, to live in such a mansion, your status must be more than just a simple secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, because government officials don't have that much money."
After a series of loud slaps, several bodyguards were directly knocked unconscious to the ground!
Yang Chen's footwork was swift and unpredictable. He dodged Dugu Zui's spinning kick and swiftly slapped another guard's face!
Several bodyguards were left dizzy, their faces quickly turning red from the slap!
Having missed over a hundred consecutive attacks, Dugu Zui had already entered a frenzy like a wild beast. He roared and unleashed a powerful kick towards Yang Chen's waist!
This time, instead of dodging, Yang Chen extended his hand and forcibly blocked the kick, bracing against the tremendous force!
"Boom!"
With a muffled sound, under Dugu Zui's horrified gaze, Yang Chen's hand caught his full-force kick!
"I told you, if you lack strength, why don't you believe it... since you've come to me, let's disable your legs..."
Yang Chen seemed to mutter to himself softly. After he finished speaking, he twisted the hand that held Dugu Zui's leg slightly...
"Ahhh!"
Dugu Zui screamed in agony as the bones in his leg twisted out of place in that instant!
Yang Chen released his grip, and Dugu Zui fell to the ground, clutching his foot, which was now twisted and more painful than if it had been broken, resembling a twisted dough stick. He wailed in agony.
Having tolerated this guy's arrogance from the beginning, Yang Chen finally decided to teach him a lesson.
The scene instantly fell silent, except for the painful groans of the bodyguards on the ground, making the room eerily quiet!
Fang Zhongping's forehead dripped with cold sweat. He swallowed hard, looking at the scene in front of him, unrealistically hoping he was in a nightmare!
Who exactly was this young man? Even his team of bodyguards, all elite special forces, couldn't withstand a single blow and were all down?
Yang Chen glanced mockingly at Fang Zhongping. "Secretary Fang, I advise you to use your brain more. If I wanted to deal with you, I could have strangled you to death right now, without needing to resort to anything involving your daughter. Of course, don't think I'm afraid of you. Just to clarify, if you insist on thinking that way, I don't mind making you look just like your bodyguards."
After warning Fang Zhongping, Yang Chen leisurely walked out of the villa, leaving Fang Zhongping standing there in a daze.
Walking along the winding cobblestone path, he reached the roadside not far from the villa.
With a gentle breeze and warm sunshine, Yang Chen breathed in the fresh air contentedly, leaving behind the headache-inducing incident that had just occurred.
There weren't many cars on the road, but occasionally, bikini-clad women walked towards the beach, adding to the picturesque scenery. However, the taxi Yang Chen wanted seemed to be taking its time to arrive.
Suddenly, a sapphire blue BMW Mini Cooper emerged from a nearby corner, adding a splash of vibrant color against the bright, open beachside.
The car slowly approached Yang Chen and came to a stop in front of him, with the window rolling down.
