Official Career Storm

Chapter 361: Chapter 361

Song Guanchao smiled and said, "Young Master Tian really has tough luck."

Lu Xiaotian was very excited.

Just thinking about the last time Song Guanchao had buried him alive sent shivers down his spine.

Fortunately, he had great luck and woke up just in time, otherwise he would have really died.

But he didn’t know that Song Guanchao was just trying to scare him.

If he really intended to bury him alive, he wouldn’t have dug such a shallow pit.

"Snap."

Song Guanchao lit a cigarette and scanned the group Lu Xiaotian had brought with him.

There were more than thirty people.

All of them were armed.

Lu Xiaotian took two steps back, pointed his trembling finger at Song Guanchao, and said, "You’ll end up in the hospital!"

After saying that, he grabbed his phone and dialed a number, "Mr. Li, bring all your men over, we have a tough guy here!"

After hanging up, Lu Xiaotian revealed a ferocious smile, as if he could already see Song Guanchao being rushed to the ICU.

Song Guanchao silently smoked, calculating how to handle the situation.

Turning to Secretary Tu was obviously futile; the guy wouldn’t bother.

Neither would Fu Ying be of help.

She couldn’t mobilize the Police Department.

If it were just him, fleeing wouldn’t be a problem.

But he had three liabilities around him; running wasn’t an option.

At this moment, Zeng Li quietly took out her phone and whispered, "My brother is almost here."

Song Guanchao hummed in response, thinking to himself that her brother coming was useless.

If Lu Xiaotian hadn’t called for backup, the two of them might have had a chance against the thirty-odd people.

But Lu Xiaotian had called for backup.

No matter how tough they were, defeating the opponent while protecting three people was nearly impossible.

Soon enough.

Car after car drove into the courtyard.

A few minutes later, dozens more people surrounded them.

Song Guanchao’s heart sank.

With all these people, even the entire county’s police force might not be enough to suppress them.

Fighting was not an option.

He glanced at Zeng Li.

In this situation, there was only one way out.

Call Secretary Tu, reveal Zeng Li’s identity to him.

"What’s going on, Young Master Tian?" Mr. Li, a man in his forties in dress pants and a white suit with a crew cut tattoo, was a man of the street.

Lu Xiaotian pointed at Song Guanchao, "This guy beat up my men."

Lu Xiaotian deliberately didn’t mention Song Guanchao’s identity, mainly fearing that Mr. Li wouldn’t dare to make a move.

Then, he turned to the other factory owners who had been brought over and said, "Gentlemen, I tried to talk nicely, but you didn’t show me any respect. Since that’s the case, I won’t bother with niceties!"

"Just one thing, Mr. Li and I are taking over your property!"

"If you’re unwilling to cooperate, the fate of Mr. Bai today will be your fate tomorrow!"

The faces of the factory owners turned ugly, yet they still forced smiles.

Lu Xiaotian waved his hand grandly, "Set the factory on fire!"

Set it on fire?

The bosses were stunned.

Bai Ruyi was also stunned.

Even his own men were taken aback.

One of the underlings asked, "Young Master Tian, what do you mean by set it on fire?"

"Damn!" Lu Xiaotian cursed, "Burn it down, do you understand?"

"Oh, got it, got it!"

"Come on, torch the factory!"

A group of underlings rushed into the factory. Bai Ruyi, in desperation, tried to stop them but was held back by Wu Ming, "Mr. Bai, don’t be rash."

Wu Ming was also furious; having never dealt with such people, he had no experience.

It was his first time realizing that there were such dark places where the sunlight couldn’t reach.

Suddenly!

The factory burst into flames.

The place was a garment factory filled with clothes and fabrics, which caught fire instantly.

The fierce fire illuminated the factory, brightening up the surroundings.

The flames rushed skyward, becoming more vigorous.

As the factory was consumed by the fire, Bai Ruyi’s lips tightened and tears streamed down.

She had just finished building the factory, and all the equipment was new.

Now, it was being engulfed in flames, doomed to ruin.

Under the glow of the fire, Lu Xiaotian’s smile appeared particularly dark.

Mr. Li and a group of thugs laughed uproariously, heedless of the consequences.

Song Guanchao’s heart sank to rock bottom.

Under the deliberate indulgence of Secretary Tu, these people had almost lost their bottom line; lacking basic morals in their hearts, there was no law to speak of.

Song Guanchao took a deep breath, pulled out his cellphone, and prepared to call Secretary Tu.

His movements were captured by Lu Xiaotian.

"Seize him for me. I’m going to personally cripple you today!" Lu Xiaotian pointed at Song Guanchao and issued orders.

Wham, wham, wham!

The gangsters immediately stepped forward.

But then,

"Bang!"

A loud bang resounded from the factory gate.

Everyone turned their heads in unison.

They saw a rough, evil-designed, military green four-wheel drive bursting through the gate and barreling towards them.

Immediately following were more four-wheel drives joining in succession.

Lu Xiaotian, Mr. Li, and the gangsters stared dumbfounded at these monstrous vehicles.

They didn’t know where these vehicles had come from.

Nor why they suddenly appeared here.

Mr. Li was more knowledgeable than Lu Xiaotian and recognized at a glance that these were the rarely seen "Camp Commander" off-road vehicles, even tougher than Humvees. Ordinary people couldn’t afford to buy them, let alone see them.

Taking another look at the license plates, Mr. Li’s eyes nearly popped out.

The plates were white with red lettering at the beginning.

Mr. Li’s eyelid twitched fiercely. These were military vehicles!

"Snap!"

The car doors opened.

A group of soldiers wearing combat fatigues and sporting buzz cuts, jumped out of the vehicle.

These soldiers were generally over 1.8 meters tall, their skin tanned to a wheat color due to excessive exposure to the sun.

Their short-sleeve combat T-shirts were stretched full by their bulging arms and chests, their entire bodies radiating strength and forbidding presence.

The glances they swept around were sharp as if eagle-eyed and wolf-guarded.

After jumping out, they quickly formed a squad.

Among them, a man around thirty, tall and handsome, scanned the crowd of gangsters in front of him and suddenly shouted, "Zhao Bin, take the third squad and guard the gate!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Bin led the third squad of soldiers swiftly to the factory gate and blocked it.

"The rest of you, spread out, enter combat mode, and wait for orders!"

"Yes!"

"Shoosh shoosh shoosh!"

Over seventy soldiers dispersed, but they didn’t go far—they remained about ten meters from the gangsters.

Each soldier kept his gaze fixed on one or two people.

This menacing, tiger-stalking-its-prey stare made the gangsters shiver with fear.

After deploying his men, the man walked towards the crowd.

The gangsters didn’t dare to block him and quickly made way.

Even a braggart like Lu Xiaotian was subdued, not daring to speak rashly.

The crowd dispersed, and when they saw Song Guanchao and a few others, the man’s stern face slightly relaxed.

He was about to speak when Song Guanchao signaled the people next to him with his eyes.

The man got the hint, understanding that Song Guanchao didn’t want others to know about their relationship.

"Brother!"

Zeng Li rushed forward, suddenly bursting into tears.

At that, Mr. Li inwardly cursed, knowing that it was not good.

Although he was not familiar with the military region, he knew one should never provoke the military.

These people were utterly unreasonable.

Sure enough.

As Zeng Li cried, Zeng Yingrong’s face drastically changed.

"Xiao Li, what happened?"

"They bullied me. They also set a fire!"

Zeng Li sobbed, pointing at Lu Xiaotian, Mr. Li, and the others.

Zeng Yingrong’s expression darkened, he gently patted Zeng Li and turned around, his face expressionless as he scanned the gangsters.

Anybody his gaze swept over couldn’t help but lower their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.

Mr. Li mustered his courage and forced a smile, saying, "This... "

"Shut up!" Zeng Yingrong’s furious shout made Mr. Li’s liver tremble, and he swallowed his words back.

Zeng Yingrong said, "Everyone listen to my command..."

Before he could finish, a soldier a few years older than him walked over and said sternly, "Xiao Zeng, we are soldiers. The headquarters values this training very highly. If something goes wrong, it will be hard to explain to the leaders."

The atmosphere on site suddenly turned awkward. Mr. Li, whose heart had been in his throat, relaxed slightly.

Zeng Yingrong’s brow furrowed and said, "Political Commissioner Zhong, this is my personal matter. I’ll handle it myself!"

Political Commissioner Zhong’s stern expression suddenly softened, and he patted his shoulder, smiling, "Xiao Zeng, what I meant was, we can’t use the military’s name. The training phase just finished, and tonight, you are out helping the soldiers unwind. You just happened to encounter criminals bullying others, and you came forward to help."

"But, you can’t wear your military uniforms, you understand what I mean."

Beside them, Mr. Li’s heart, just put down, was in suspense again.

Dark, these soldiers are damnably ruthless!

A smile spread across Zeng Yingrong’s face, and he turned to the soldiers and ordered, "Everyone, take off your combat fatigues!"

Shoosh shoosh shoosh!

The soldiers neatly took off their combat gear, displaying their muscular bodies like monsters.

Zeng Yingrong squinted at the trembling gangsters, who looked like small chicks, and said, "Leave them gasping, then beat them to death!"
