Supremely Talented Tyrant
Chapter 842 - 841: You Forced This!

"Alright, speak, what is it."

After leaving the hotel and getting into Secretary Zhang's Mercedes business car, Hao Jian first glanced at the three Special Forces soldiers sitting in the back, then at Secretary Zhang sitting in the passenger seat, and spoke indifferently.

It was first Qin Hai who came looking for him, and then this guy barged in and muddled the situation that was originally under control; had it not been for him, Hao Jian would have taken care of that Qin Hai long ago.

Afterward, it was the tug-of-war with the Qin Family, he had considered all these consequences, but he never thought Secretary Zhang and the others would come looking for him.

However, after thinking it through, Hao Jian also felt that it was okay to hear first what the minister needed help with. Qin Hai had to be dealt with; letting him go now would just give him a few more breaths of air.

"You'd better have a look at this first..."

Secretary Zhang didn't say much but took out some documents from the briefcase and handed them to Hao Jian, indicating that he should read them first.

"So mysterious."

After murmuring these words softly, Hao Jian also took the documents, but as soon as he flipped open the first page and saw a few words, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and without a second thought, he threw the documents back at Secretary Zhang. His voice returned to calm as he said, "I can't help with this matter..."

Damn it, he thought it was something else, but he never expected it to be this kind of crap!

Hao Jian was quite speechless and felt a bit complicated inside. The reason he returned to Huaxia and lived quietly as an ordinary person, aiming for what he considered an uneventful life, was to stay away from these people. However, he hadn't expected that no matter what he did or how he avoided them, someone would still personally deliver these people's information to him...

"Mercenary Alliance, you really are insatiable!"

His eyes narrowed, a faint menace showed in his gaze, but it quickly dissipated, revealing nothing more.

"You should finish reading before deciding!"

Seeing Hao Jian's attitude, Secretary Zhang grew anxious. When leaving, the minister had repeatedly told him to persuade Hao Jian. He originally thought that Hao Jian would definitely agree to such a matter, but to his surprise, after just one glance, the man outright refused!

Do I really have to use that method?!

Secretary Zhang was somewhat helpless; that method was not to be used unless absolutely necessary, otherwise it might offend Hao Jian and even create a rift between him and the minister.

All he could do was to try to persuade Hao Jian, "This time they've kidnapped a female doctor. We must use our maximum effort for the rescue, and after considering all options, you are the only one suitable for this job. This female doctor really mustn't run into trouble. She's a very important person!"

Enlighten with reason, appeal with emotion, this was the method Secretary Zhang was using. He just didn't believe that Hao Jian really was the sort of person impervious to persuasion.

"What's it to me?"

Hao Jian waved his hand in impatience. If it was going against other people, that would be fine, but not the Mercenary Alliance. In the past, he had been alone, and it wouldn't have mattered. But now, he wasn't alone; he had loved ones and a career he had built himself.

People in the Mercenary Alliance were all ruthless; he had distanced himself from that circle because he was tired of the strife and wanted to live a peaceful life, not to delve deeper into that world again.

"You can't refuse! You're the most qualified in the country to carry out this mission! Once it is done, even taking down the Qin Family would be a piece of cake. This female doctor's latest research findings have great strategic significance for us!"

"For the sake of our nation, for the future of our people, you should take on this mission!"

Secretary Zhang spoke more and more passionately, but the impatience on Hao Jian's face became increasingly profound, his expression turning grim. He loathed hearing this kind of righteous rhetoric the most.

"Stop annoying me. I just want to go back to sleep. You've caused me to have no place to sleep, and I haven't even taken you to task for it."

Waving his hand in annoyance, Hao Jian was about to order the driver to pull over, but as he started to move, the three Special Forces soldiers behind him promptly raised their guns to his head, which caused Hao Jian's already dark expression to suddenly become filled with rage.

"Do you really think you can hold me back with that trifling level of Kung Fu?"

Hao Jian slowly turned his head, and a cold voice emanated from his mouth. The voice, woven with Killing Intent, entered the ears of the three men, causing cold sweat to form on their foreheads, yet their resolution was clear in their eyes, their hands holding the guns without the slightest tremor.

At this moment, in their eyes, Hao Jian was like a proud Tiger King, lofty and imposing. An intense aura of killing intent washed over them; even these men who had undergone Hell's training and seen several battles felt fear, but the issue wasn't about laying down their arms anymore.

They were soldiers, and a soldier's duty is to obey orders. From the moment they left, they were led by Secretary Zhang. Now, this man in front of them, who was bad-mouthing Secretary Zhang, in their view, was unmistakably harboring malicious intentions towards him.

"Heh, there is some defiance in your tone now, but sometimes, you need to realize that your current enemy is far from the ordinary ones you have encountered before!"

Hao Jian sneered at the three men, and his chilly voice emanated, "In your eyes, these submachine guns might seem powerful, but in mine, at such close range, I could take you down the moment you pull the trigger... do not doubt my words..."

As a former king, Hao Jian's strength is unanimously recognized as formidable by all mercenaries. If such strength couldn't take down these Special Forces, he might as well buy a block of tofu and smash himself to death with it.

"Hao Jian, don't act rashly!"

Secretary Zhang, though a civilian, understood the significance of strength. Though these Special Forces bodyguards appeared capable, against someone as powerful as Hao Jian, they wouldn't last a single move. Now, with the situation nearly escalating to violence, Secretary Zhang wiped the sweat from his forehead and intervened to stop Hao Jian.

The reason for stopping Hao Jian was the fear that in a sudden outburst, he would kill these Special Forces. These men were the minister's trusted aides—should anything happen to them here, how would Secretary Zhang explain it to the minister upon return?

"And you three, put your guns down this instant. Do it quickly unless you want to die!" Having advised Hao Jian, Secretary Zhang urgently addressed the three Special Forces as well.

"And you! Put down the pistol in your hand as well!"

After berating the three of them, Secretary Zhang turned his gaze toward the Special Forces member who was driving, sharply ordering him. Hearing this command, the soldier scratched his head and put away the pistol that he had subconsciously drawn upon hearing Hao Jian's words while driving.

"What, are you all rebelling?! How did the minister instruct you when you left? He told you not to draw your guns at every turn, and now look at yourselves, all of you have drawn your guns!"

Anger was evident on Secretary Zhang's face, and after seeing the four men holster their weapons, he lashed out with his words. However, the scolding left the four Special Forces soldiers simply scratching their heads.

Indeed, before they left, the minister had repeatedly emphasized listening to Secretary Zhang and avoiding trouble at all costs. It was just that they were too angered this time—this guy had actually insulted them!

"I'm saying this for your own good. Even if you combined your entire squad, you wouldn't be able to take on Hao Jian. What do you think the four of you can do now?!"

"Commander, this guy is belittling us! Why are you belittling us too?!" One of them couldn't contain their dissatisfaction upon hearing Secretary Zhang's words, and they retorted indignantly.

"Just sit tight for now. If Hao Jian wanted to harm me, I wouldn't still be sitting here!" Really, Secretary Zhang was at his wits' end with these youngsters. Did they actually believe Hao Jian was like those they had handled before?!

"Commander..."

"Hmm?!"

Seeing someone wanted to argue back, Secretary Zhang's expression turned darker. Seeing him like this, one of the Special Forces members hurriedly stopped the one about to speak and quickly confirmed, "Understood, Commander!"

"Hao Jian, this is the minister's order. You have to agree to it!"

Seeing that these men finally fell silent, Secretary Zhang sighed in relief. He truly feared Hao Jian would go on a rampage because of these young men.

"I won't go, no matter what you say!"

Hao Jian turned his head to look out the window, ignoring Secretary Zhang completely.

"You... don't make me use force!"

Seeing Hao Jian's indifferent attitude, Secretary Zhang grew anxious, his tone carrying a hint of threat, which caused a brief flicker in Hao Jian's eyes, but then they calmed down again just as quickly.

He really didn't think this guy had any means to force him. He wasn't afraid of a fight, and he reckoned even the minister wouldn't dare in other matters.

What then, should he be afraid of?!

"Fine, fine, fine!"

Seeing this reaction, Secretary Zhang, incensed to the point of mocking laughter, took out some documents from his briefcase and flung them in front of Hao Jian, yelling, "These are the loose ends you left when you murdered people. If the minister hadn't covered for you, you would be in jail by now!"

"Do you believe I could hand these documents over to the criminal law department right now?!"

Secretary Zhang wore a grim expression, bellowing, "You need to understand that without us, you'd already be in jail! Just by turning over these documents to the criminal law department, you'll end up in prison just the same! Don't think we won't dare!"

"You're forcing this!"
