Chapter 143 Paying The Price (1)
More than fifteen minutes had passed. Bai Chen was brought to a deserted forest in Xing Zhou. It was not far from where he had been picked up.
He was standing with a face that showed extreme terror. Of course, it was an act.
His eyes stared forward. In front of him stood three men.
Two of them were in their middle age; one had a big belly and was bald, the other was in an undershirt, was quite muscular, and had a cruel-looking face.
They were Ao Suan and Tu Hou. Tu Hou was the leader of the Black Monkey Gang that Ao Suan had hired for five million yuan to kill Bai Chen!
The last of the three was a young man, Ao Song. He held a great grudge against Bai Chen.
Though it was quite dark in these words, there was a full moon that night. The light of the moon illuminated the place just enough for the three faces to be seen clearly.
“Should I kill him now?” Tu Hou asked out of the blue, his voice icy. He looked at Bai Chen with narrowed eyes. His face resembled that of a snake.
Ao Song smiled coldly. “Not yet, Mr. Tu. Let me beat him up first!”
“If you want that, then so be it. Be quick, though. I don’t want to waste a lot of time.” Tu Hou was spinning his gun in his hand. He waved the other hand to signal Ao Song to hurry.
He did not want to spend a lot of time here. To him, killing a nobody like Bai Chen was akin to squashing an ant.
With his experience in the underworld, Tu Hou was arrogant and fearless. Not even the police could threaten him.
He was quite influential; if not, the police would have arrested him long ago for all the bad deeds he had done.
Ao Suan nodded. He lifted his hand to rub his bald head, his lips curling up into a smirk. “Go beat him up, son. I’ll go after you. We’ll make him suffer horrendously before he dies!”
“Yes, dad!” Ao Song nodded decisively. Bai Chen’s terrified face gave him nothing but satisfaction.
This was the best time of his life.
Ao Song stepped towards Bai Chen. They were not that far apart.
But after having taken two steps, Ao Song stopped abruptly. His face twisted, showing extreme anger when he remembered something. He turned around and said to Ao Suan, “Dad, he must know where that wenches might be!”
When he heard his son, Ao Suan’s eyes glittered with a cold light. He remembered now as well.
That day when he had gotten beat up alongside Ao Song, other than Bai Chen, there had been two others. One was a pretty lady and the other had their face covered. The two of them were Long Xu In and Xu Xue Ning.
The Ao father and son wanted to take revenge on Long Xu In and Xu Xue Ning, too. But they had no idea where those two were from.
And with Xu Xue Ning’s face covered, they had no clue who she was and hence, how to find her.
Thus, they had decided to target Bai Chen. Initially, they had not planned to kill him.
However, seeing Bai Chen being close to Li Lin had changed their minds. The situation had escalated to this moment when they had hired Tu Hou to kill Bai Chen.
Right now, when Ao Suan and Ao Song remembered that Bai Chen might know the whereabouts of Long Xu In and Xu Xue Ning, their rage ignited.
“Tell me who the two women with you that day were and where they are right now!” Ao Song turned towards Bai Chen and shouted with rage.
“Hurry up and tell us. And maybe you’ll get a quick and easy death!” Ao Suan added. His eyes fixed threateningly onto Bai Chen.
Tu Hou laughed lightly. He felt that the situation was rather amusing. He decided to give the duo some more time to torture the target.
Bai Chen’s terrified face twitched a little. He did not expect them to be asking for Long Xu In.
He did not care much. He would never tell them anyway. Or even if he did, there would be no problem—since he planned to kill them all right here!
Bai Chen had no thought of not killing these men. If the three of them wanted him dead, why should he not retaliate?
He thought these three were no different from Ba Guan and the White Tiger Gang. Even if he killed them, there would be no consequences for him!
On the contrary, it might be a good thing. If he killed them now, it would put an end to his future problems.
Bai Chen blinked a few times. He thought of how many people he had recently killed. Even if it seemed sinful, but he had no regrets. If he had not done it, it would have been him who ended up dead!
His parents would also be in danger if he had not done it.
A sigh sounded. Bai Chen thought that was enough acting for a day. His face had no traces of fear left. Coldness had replaced it.
His gaze was equally cold. He looked at the three people in front of him before speaking aloud in an icy voice. He had changed his act completely.
“Why would I tell you?”
“What did you just say?” Ao Song’s eyes opened wide. He felt as if he was hearing things.
It was not just him. Ao Suan felt the same way. Tu Hou, who was twirling his gun playfully, felt it as well.
“I said, why should I tell you?” Bai Chen repeated himself.
He did not care about their reactions even a bit. He decided in his heart to retaliate when the middle-aged man in the undershirt pointed the gun at him.
“Hahaha, dad, did you hear that? He was so afraid that he’s already lost his mind.”
Ao Song bursted out laughing after hearing what Bai Chen had said. Coupled with the coldness and calm on Bai Chen’s face, Ao Song believed that Bai Chen had already gone insane!
Nobody in their right mind would act in such a way in such a dire situation.
Ao Suan smiled. Tu Hou smiled as well. All of them shared the same thought.End of Chapter 143
