The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard -
Chapter 171
Chapter 171: Chapter 171
"Hisss... if you’ve got the guts... kill me! If I’m afraid of you, I’m a coward!"
"Grandson, let grandfather teach you how to show filial piety properly!"
One of Ye Tian’s interests is playing the role of a grandfather. Hearing Dong Cheng’s words, Ye Tian’s playful nature was piqued. When he saw Xu Qingyang intent on continuing to wield his knife, he reached out to stop him, "Don’t bother, watch me."
Dong Cheng gasped in cold air, his arms trembling uncontrollably from the pain — real, unbearable pain — thinking Ye Tian would have something even more damaging prepared. He was ready to meet his death; after all, his own death was merely a single life. But falling into Liu Liyue’s hands would mean more than just a lost life.
Ye Tian then sat across from him like a warlord in an imposing pose, fixing his gaze directly on him, and spoke, "Persimmon Bay, Jiangsu, Number 68 on First Street, a son and a daughter, twins. Truly a happy family."
"If you dare to touch..."
Though taking a knife hadn’t stirred him, Dong Cheng was incited by Ye Tian’s words, springing up like a rabid dog in the streets, about to pounce on Ye Tian, only to be swiftly kicked aside, his hefty body slamming heavily into the wall. He left a long streak of blood before crashing to the ground.
"So, it turns out Mr. Dong is a family-minded good man. I underestimated you."
"You... how do you know about my family? Who! Who told you... was it Zheng Xinru! It was her, wasn’t it!?"
"Who told me isn’t important. I can assure you with certainty that you won’t survive tonight. However, if you tell me everything I want to know, I can promise that your family will live, and in a distant place like the United States, where your enemies can’t find them."
Dong Cheng’s voice trembled as he spoke, "Why... why should I believe you."
"You don’t have to believe me. I don’t mind. But just so you know, there are plenty of people waiting around your house, ready to capture your family. It wasn’t easy for my people. Here, listen to this."
Ye Tian pulled out his phone, pressed the speaker key, and a woman’s voice came through, "Hello, is that Cheng?"
"Sister-in-law, Brother Cheng just got done with his work, he’ll talk to you."
The phone was handed to Dong Cheng.
"Xiumei, are the kids okay?"
"Hmph, you still remember them? It’s such a big thing to move to another country and you didn’t tell us. Your friend has already completed all the paperwork and visas; the plane is the day after tomorrow in the afternoon. Make sure you come over quickly once you’re done."
Dong Cheng’s face turned ashen, he collapsed powerlessly onto the floor, took a moment to regain his composure, "Alright, that’s it for now. Hanging up."
Ye Tian, smiling, took back his phone and slid it into his pocket, "What’s it going to be, Brother Dong?"
At this point, the situation had escalated beyond his control, hitting him right where it hurt the most. What else could he possibly do?
The two women in the living room downstairs were trembling while seated on the sofa, looking at the two men on the floor. It took them a while to recover, and the periodic yells from Fatty Dong upstairs made them realize their bleak prospects for the night.
"Sister Juan, do you think... will we die?" The younger woman, a university student named Die, due to her reckless spending and generally passive and negative attitude, had ended up in this line of work with Sister Juan, never expecting to encounter such a situation.
Sister Juan appeared composed, "It shouldn’t be anything serious. They’re either here for money or pure revenge. Considering Fatty Dong’s ranking in Tianhe, his enemies must be significant. At their level, we’re too trivial for their concerns, don’t worry. The bald man said so himself — as long as we don’t cause trouble, we’ll be safe."
After comforting her, Die’s mood eased slightly. However, looking at the two men lying on the floor, especially the knife piercing one’s cheek, sent chills down her spine.
"Sister Juan, didn’t you feel a sort of coldness emanating from those two men just now?"
Seeing Die like this, Sister Juan hugged her, gently soothing her back, speaking reassuring words while feeling a surge of panic herself. Those two men upstairs, looking clean-cut yet emitting an unmistakable killing aura, were truly frightening. The old saying goes, a barking dog seldom bites, and despite only being hostesses, they knew better — the most terrifying individuals are those who smile politely while hiding sinister intentions.
"Sister Juan, should we call the police now?"
Spotting what seemed like a glimmer of hope, Die hurriedly reached for her phone, but dressed only in a light nightgown, with her phone still upstairs, she turned towards the landline on the table. Before she could grab it, Sister Juan had dashed over and disconnected the call.
"Sister Juan!" Die stamped her foot in frustration but was quickly pulled back to the sofa.
"Die, listen to me. If you ever find yourself in this kind of situation again, remember, never call the police, absolutely not! We can’t manage their kind of business, we’d only be drawing trouble upon ourselves. And remember, you are a hostess; your very status is tainted..."
"She’s right. Definitely don’t call the police."
Die jolted in fear, turning to see the two men they’d just discussed, the one behind smeared with fresh blood, a chilling sight.
"Young lady, the first rule of survival in this business is to preserve oneself. You should learn more from your Sister Juan."
Even at this moment, he was still joking. Xu Qingyang, unperturbed, snapped the neck of the other man on the floor. Since Dong Cheng had been killed, there was no point in keeping this bodyguard around, especially after he had seen Xu’s face.
Glancing at this murderous lunatic and Ye Tian, who continued motionlessly observing them, the two women felt their hearts tightening. They couldn’t guess what this man’s next move might be.
"Given your line of work, I bet your names are all fake. I’ll have to keep a close eye on you. If anyone finds out I was here tonight, I will definitely come for you. Don’t blame me for not being nice then. Alright, remember this. I drove here. Want a ride?"
Fox!
"Big brother."
"Mm?"
Ye Tian turned back with a smile, immediately sending a chill through Juanzi’s heart, making her feel as if she’d entered an ice cellar.
"There are cameras here, do you want to..."
