Chapter 239: Chapter 100 How could you have such an idea? It’s too dangerous_2

This isn’t about strength in combat, but rather that your brain detected your intense desire for another battle, releasing some kind of excitatory substance.

Tang Jiayu’s face turned ugly, fear gnawing at her heart. She knew these people meant business. Given the current situation, there was no way to avoid what was coming. The other side had guns and had already captured them; even having bodyguards was futile.

Madam Tang felt her daughter’s sweaty palms and was extremely anxious and clueless about what to do. In such a moment, a woman could only pin her hopes on a man, that is, on Tang Li.

Li Liang looked at Sun Xiang, just silently observing him.

Sun Xiang immediately understood, "Surely, the boss gets to play first, then it’s the brothers’ turn."

Li Liang nodded in satisfaction. He didn’t often have such strong needs for women, but the sight of Tang Jiayu suddenly stirred his interest. After all, who would refuse a woman with both a beautiful face and figure?

Tang Li found it intolerable that such a thing could happen before his eyes, wondering how he could stabilize the situation and safely get his family out of there.

"At the end of the world up to now, do you think the country would be out of options? With my status and position, from the moment the apocalypse struck, I’ve already made contact with people over there, and they’ve agreed to come for us. If my family and I encounter trouble, it’s unlikely you’d end up well. I can give up this place and not inform them about what happened here, and all you need to do is let us leave," Tang Li said.

Tang Li spoke.

There was no other way.

He could only think of this much so far.

Hoping to intimidate them with his government connections, he wanted to deter them from acting rashly.

The armed survivors exchanged looks, pondering whether Tang Li’s words were true. What he said was indeed frightening. They used to be just ordinary lower-class citizens until the apocalypse allowed them to find weapons and start throwing their weight around. But they knew the methods and connections of the powerful; when danger approached, the elite escaped first.

It was the same with getting medical treatment—if you don’t know the right people, you have to stand while the connected lie in comfort.

It was stark reality.

Unconsciously, some of the armed survivors began to hesitate. If the government really did show up with their firepower, the weapons in their hands might truly be insufficient.

"Hahaha."

"The wealthy Tang doesn’t disappoint with his cunning thoughts. That’s pretty terrifying to hear," Li Liang laughed, shaking his head involuntarily, then continued.

"Do you take me for a fool? The apocalypse has been going on for some time now. If they were going to come, they would have by now. Have you not seen the state of the outside world? Just talking about the zombies roaming He City, who knows how many survivors are left? If the government had the ability, they would have already crushed them with an army. And the military stockpiles—these weapons we possess, we took them from a military base. We’ve encountered another group of survivors who’ve been moving through several cities, now just zombie territories. Do you really think we’re children that you can fool us easily?"

"Believe it or not, it’s up to you," Tang Li replied.

Li Liang stood up, "I truly don’t believe it. In an interview, you once claimed that your bodyguards are the cream of the crop. I was genuinely wary of getting close, but... I have this thing," he said.

After speaking, he aimed at one of the bodyguards by Tang Li’s side, intending to blow his head off with a gunshot.

The bodyguard’s expression was grave, sweat beading on his forehead. It’s false to say he wasn’t nervous with a gun pointed at him, but he knew dodging was useless. If death was inevitable, he might as well face it with some backbone.

Pop!

The gun fired.

The bodyguard was still standing; only the wall behind bore a bullet hole.

"Damn..."

Li Liang was in a foul mood. He aimed for a headshot and missed, with everyone watching—a definite embarrassment. Without another thought, he prepared to spray bullets.

Just as he was about to pull the trigger.

"Hello there, may I ask if Yao Xue is here?"

Lin Fan inquired gently.

Suddenly turning up on someone else’s turf unannounced, it was impolite not to have greeted them first.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Every gaze turned sharply to the entrance.

Everyone inside was a bit stunned; hearing those words felt like someone had just dropped by, politely asking for someone like a stranger visiting a new home.

Could he possibly not have seen the current situation?

Tang Jiayu looked towards the door to see that familiar face; her eyes sparkled, yet she restrained herself from speaking, feeling a little tense inside. This man might really be powerful, but no matter the prowess, the other side had guns.

Tang Li looked in surprise. He hadn’t seen Lin Fan before, but the sight of the sword carried on Lin Fan’s back brought to mind the images described by his daughter.

A young and gentle man carrying a sword, looking very ordinary.

But showing up now wasn’t a very wise choice.

Yao Xue saw Zhou Ting arrive and twisted her body nonstop, desperately wanting to throw herself into her boyfriend’s arms. She just knew her boyfriend would never abandon her. Even though they weren’t married, their relationship was deeper than anyone else’s.

Zhou Ting said, "Don’t be afraid. We’ve come to rescue you, it’ll be alright soon."

He then glared angrily at the group. If Lin Fan hadn’t been there, he would surely be on his knees begging, snot and tears flowing, pleading for them to let his girlfriend go.

But with Lin Fan by his side, he too was emboldened. The brother he had with him was someone who could soar through the sky and burrow into the earth—don’t ask whether it’s scientific or not, such things no longer mattered. Seeing is believing; just have faith.
