was thirsty!“I forgot……” She knew her excuse was a bit far-fetched, but she had no other way to say it. Regardless of what Rong Ling was thinking, she could only sullenly turn around and go back to h...The frosted glass of the bathroom faintly showed a beautiful figure. Huang Liang emerged excitedly from the other bathroom, glancing at the bedroom's bathroom intentionally. Through the frosted glass, he saw Lin Meng standing there obediently, probably taking a bath. He let out a sigh of relief immediately. He had specifically chosen this kind of room because he was somewhat afraid that the girl would be too intense and cause trouble. Although he played with women, he didn't want to get into any unnecessary legal issues for it.

A huge, crimson bed was what he'd specifically instructed the servants to change. It looked lasciviously bloody; it would be even more exciting when it came time for the torture. Beside the bed, a box was placed, inside containing sexual implements he had gathered from everywhere. He chuckled silently, licked his lips, picked up the black box, opened it, and began excitedly selecting the tools he might use tonight. As he was picking, a bodyguard approached and whispered in his ear. Huang Liang frowned, very displeased, and said with hostility, "Whoever it is, keep them out!"

This main person is not in the city, besides him, Huang Liang thought he was still afraid of a bird!

The bodyguard responded and used a walkie-talkie to instruct the two bodyguards who were already fighting at the door to make sure they sent that kid away.

That boy is Gu Jianxi.

He followed in a taxi, watching as Lin Leopard and Lin Meng entered the underground parking lot. He spent some money, having the taxi driver follow them as well. It just took him some time to park and find a spot. Watching Lin Leopard take Lin Meng upstairs, he seemed to see that Lin Meng wasn't carrying anything, and let out a sigh of relief. Then, he followed from afar, all the way until Lin Meng and Lin Leopard entered their room.

Of course, he had doubts in his heart. There was no need for the father and daughter to talk in such a high-end place. They could just book a room. He racked his brains, feeling something was amiss. When he saw Lin Bao come out alone, he realized something was wrong and hurriedly stepped forward, greeting him with a smile.

"Uncle, this is great! I finally found you!"

Lin Bao was stunned, looking at Gu Jianxi, puzzled.

"Well, well, the teacher assigned me and Lin Meng to work on a physics model together. I accidentally forgot about it just now, so I wanted to talk to her and discuss the details. How should we do it!" As for lying, Gu Jianxi was a master at it.

Lin Bao frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable. "I can't tonight, let's wait until tomorrow!"

“Oh dear, this won't do!” Gu Jianxi pretended to be anxious. “We have to show the results to the teacher tomorrow, and if we don't come up with a general idea now, it will be difficult to explain to the teacher tomorrow. Uncle, don't worry, it won't take up much of Lin Meng’s time, just a few minutes. I’ll just chat with her briefly.”

Lin Bao looked displeased. “I’ll talk to the teacher about the assignment. The teacher definitely won’t blame you two. You should just go back first.” Lin Bao wanted to get rid of him with all his heart.

Gu Jianxi refused, and was even more certain that Lin Bao wouldn't let him see Lin Meng because something must have happened inside the room behind the door.

"Uncle, this won't do. The model has to be made, I don't want to leave a bad impression on the teacher. Uncle, just let me see Lin Meng for a bit, it's not a big deal. Are you leaving After talking to Lin Meng, that's perfect, let me go in and talk to her!"

Lin Bao's face darkened, and he angrily shouted, "You kid, how dare you be so disrespectful. I told you to leave, just leave. If you want to see her, talk about it tomorrow. My Mengmeng is talking with her cousin right now, so don't go in and cause trouble. Get out!"

He reached out his hand to pull Gu Jianxi.

Ku Jianxi let out a cold snort, his face no longer amiable. A chilling glint flashed in his eyes!

"Uncle, I don't think you're really my uncle, are you!" This is the kind of excuse a prostitute would use when she gets caught by the police, and he's heard it all before.

He dodged Lin Bao's outstretched hand, dashed to the door, and slammed on the doorbell while shouting, "Open up! Open up!"

Huang Liang was cautious in his actions. He also knew that doing such things could easily lead to trouble, so he usually carried four bodyguards with him to prevent any accidents. At this moment, these four bodyguards had two guarding the door to prevent police or similar raids. The other two were sitting slightly further inside, just in case a woman being sexually assaulted became unbearable and suddenly launched a counterattack against Huang Liang!

Hearing the commotion, the two bodyguards at the door sprang into action, bursting out. They were tall and imposing, each almost six feet two inches tall with broad shoulders and round waists, looking rather intimidating. At a glance, Gu Jianxi immediately felt that these two were top-notch fighters. Therefore, he was even more certain that the situation inside was extremely dire.

"Get out of my way!" he growled coldly.

The bodyguard hadn't even opened his mouth when Lin Bao roared first. "Kid, this is a family affair of the Lin family, you outsider shouldn't interfere, and you are not allowed to interfere!"

Gu Jianxi coldly snorted. "I'm going to get involved, what are you going to do about it!"

Saying that, he was about to charge in!

The bodyguard, naturally, didn't stand idly by. He extended his thick arm, as sturdy as a small tree trunk, to shield Ko Jianxi.

"What are you doing, don't just barge in here, this place isn't somewhere you can just come into." His tone was full of a worldly, martial arts vibe.

Gu Jianxi was also brave, with one punch, he swung it towards the big man's face. Although he was a head shorter than the big man, when it came to fighting, he was a skilled fighter. The big man didn't expect that such a young kid would actually make a move, and so bravely at that. Startled, he had no defense and took the punch straight on.

This angered the big Han greatly, believing it to be a great humiliation. He roared, intending to give Gu Jianxi a good lesson. But Gu Jianxi wasn't the kind who was all show and no substance. This kid moved quickly and fiercely, clearly having training. The big Han next to him originally wanted to just watch from the side, but seeing Gu Jianxi go through several moves, he knew he had to jump in, otherwise his partner would probably lose.

Before making his move, he first contacted the two people still inside using a phone to warn them. This is how the scene of a bodyguard whispering in Huang Liang's ear appeared. Now that the bodyguard had received Huang Liang's exact order, he would certainly let loose. As someone who ran a big business, Huang Liang naturally had a certain network of contacts. Even if he killed someone, he could use money to settle it.

Gu Jianxi, single-handedly against two people, was not at a disadvantage. Out of necessity, another bodyguard came out from inside the house and then contacted several other individuals who were both bodyguards and security personnel within the company via phone. In their building materials company, they dealt with heavy labor and often had conflicts with construction workers, leading to fights frequently. So, the security personnel below were all quite skilled.

Three bodyguards surrounded Gu Jianxi, fighting him without explicitly stating that more brothers would arrive soon. They planned to wait for everyone to be present before attacking together, capturing this kid and thoroughly "interrogating" him tonight. They hadn't encountered such a foolish fool who willingly walked into their trap in quite some time.

The security guards over there are pretty efficient. *Hu la la*, eight of them came, arriving in a van. Men are all about action, as soon as they hear there's a fight, they get collectively excited.

Gu Jianxi was already struggling against three well-trained attackers, and now eight more emerged from the shadows. He felt like his lungs were about to burst.

"Damn it, bullying the weak! You cowards!"

These people always play dirty, relying on numbers to bully others. Upon hearing this, they didn't even get angry, instead immediately rushing forward to gang up on him.

Gu Jianxi roared angrily, "You have guts! You beat me today, and tomorrow I'll make you all rot in jail!"

"Haha..." Several people laughed in unison. "Boy, first make sure you keep your life safe tonight! We'll talk later!" With that, fists rained down like a sudden storm.

"Damn it!" Gu Jianxi wiped the blood from his bruised lip, and after landing a few punches, he glared at the biggest man from the start and growled, "Tell that man inside, if he doesn't want to offend the Kyoto Gu family, just get out here right now!"

He originally planned to save people with his own abilities, but now, he can only rely on his family!

The burly man didn't know anything about the Gu Family, hearing Gu Jianxi roar so arrogantly, he thought he was just bluffing. With a booming laugh, he sneered: "Kid, let me make it clear to you, I don't care who you are, today, no one is getting past this door!"

"Oh! Then I'll give it a try!"

A snide remark, like a sharp sword forged from ice, pierced through the heat of the moment!

Rong Ling, who came from afar, had dripping wet hair as if he had just emerged from the water. However, this did not diminish his powerful aura. His handsome face, sharp like a blade, was cold and could kill with a glance.

There was a security guard who didn't recognize him, loudly yelling, "Well, well, another one who came to die!" Although he felt that the newcomer was extraordinary, he thought that with so many people on their side, they would definitely be able to take him down!

Rong Ling swept his eyes across the person, like a tiger eyeing its prey. The man was unnerved by the gaze and involuntarily shivered, feeling as though he had been targeted by a beast. As Rong Ling approached, the man stumbled back two steps, weakly squeaking, “You...what do you want!”

Rong Ling remained silent. He stepped forward, placing a hand on the man's shoulder. Before the man could react, Rong Ling gripped his shoulder tightly. With his right hand, he delivered a powerful punch to the man's abdomen. The man let out a muffled groan, froth coming from his mouth, his face instantly paling like paper. Rong Ling gracefully retracted his hand. The man immediately lost his balance and collapsed onto the ground as if his legs had been severed. He clutched his stomach, groaning softly, with occasional flecks of white foam escaping his lips. He looked to be in excruciating pain!

The previous playful banter had ceased. On the red carpet path, a sudden silence fell.

"Who else wants to give it a try!" Rong Ling raised an eyebrow, glaring menacingly at the crowd. Wherever his gaze fell, everyone's eyes darted away, and they couldn't help but tense up.

"Rong Ling's move was excellent! It's called 'knocking the mountain to startle the tiger.' With just one move, this security guard shook everyone up!"

Rong Ling strode towards the door, and everyone involuntarily parted to make way for him. As he pushed open the door, just about to step inside, a hulking figure in black finally realized his duty and reached out to block him.

Rong Ling turned her head and glared fiercely at the man, her eyes like blades that could scrape bone!

"If you don't want to end up thrown in the river tonight to feed the fish, get the hell out of here and go as far away as possible!" He growled with murderous intent, his words chilling anyone who heard them. There was no doubt in their minds that this menacing man would carry out such a threat.

The burly man seemed to have been jolted by an electric shock, he retracted his hand and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, I... was just taking money and doing my job!"

Rong Ling snorted and turned away, refusing to look at him. Without pushing the door open, she kicked it in with one foot.

With a deafening boom, the door reverberated throughout the entire place, causing everyone's hearts to skip a beat. This action angered Huang Liang, who was still oblivious to the impending disaster inside. He roared, "What the hell is going on All of you, be quiet! Don't ruin my mood. You scared my little beauty! I'll have your jobs!"

"Who do you think you are!"

Rong Ling strode into the bedroom, his imposing aura filling the space. His cold eyes hid a blade as he stared down at Huang Liang. Dressed in black from head to toe, his wet hair framing his face, he resembled a devil fresh out of hell, striking fear into anyone who dared look upon him!

Huang Liang's face turned pale. He muttered inwardly, "Damn it! Why is Rong Ling here! Isn't he back in City B!"

"R-room...Room General..." Huang Liang was flustered and didn't know what to say. He clutched the rope tied to the skipping egg, feeling incredibly awkward and indecent— a perfect example of a middle-aged weirdo!

Rong Ling caught sight of the mess that was spread across almost half a bed, her face darkening. This damn old man, did he plan to use all this disgusting stuff on her!

Damn it!

A murderous intent flashed in Rong Ling's heart!

Squinting, he quickly scanned the room, trying to find that utterly lawless little woman. Behind the frosted glass, the sound of water still gurgled and splashed, projecting a blurred figure. Needless to say, it must be her.

He glared at Huang Liang coldly and warned in a harsh voice, "Stand there, don't move!"

After that, he went to the bathroom by himself. He pulled open the frosted glass door, which had no safety measures whatsoever. Standing in the flowing water was her pale face. She wasn't naked, but still fully clothed.

That's good! Rong Ling let out a sigh of relief. Thankfully, no one had seen her body yet!

The shower water continued to fall, she stood there like a wooden statue, being drenched by the water, as if she had lost all feeling. A pair of black eyes, empty and lifeless. Her petite frame, soaked through her clothes, clung tightly to her body, revealing her beautiful figure, seeming more fragile than ever.

Though Rong Ling's face remained placid, his heart burned with fury.

If I don't come, what are you going to do!

Lin Meng seemed to only have her own consciousness at this moment, as if she had just become a person. It was as if Rong Ling's voice had activated her. She blinked, looking through a layer of mist, remembering his question and hung a desolate smile on her lips.

What can I do! What else can I do!

Lin Bao was her father, even if he was the worst, he was still the one who gave birth to her and raised her. She absolutely couldn't bear to see her father go to prison, and she wouldn't stand idly by as he fell into poverty. So, what could she do She would continue, she would give her body to that man outside, even if he made her feel nauseated. (..) Only, the moment she gave up her body, her heart would die with it too.

Sixteen years, spring, summer, autumn, and winter, she had lived for sixteen years. Her father had raised her for sixteen years. She gave up her body as a complete repayment of the debt, the kindness her father had shown her. Then, she and her father would have nothing to do with each other. She would fly far away, leave this place. Even if she had nothing, no money, no friends, let alone a place to live, it didn't matter. She had two legs, and she could walk far, far away, wandering the world. Perhaps she would be so poor that she had to beg on the streets, perhaps she would even starve on the street. Then, it wouldn't matter. As long as these two legs were still on her body, she must walk.

Leave this nightmare, leave Dad, leave here, and leave... this man!

If she cared about nothing, disregarded everything, and let go of everything, then what else was there for her to care about with this man What else could she possibly ask for Where did she need to stay by his side, begging for his protection He had already said that if someone else touched her, he wouldn't want her anymore. So, it didn't matter anyway. If he didn't want her, she wouldn't have him. She, on her own, could walk away very gracefully!

But——

She silently shed tears, but Rong Ling, why did you come!

Because you must be passionately intimate with that woman, you haven't answered her calls and have been deliberately avoiding her. She sent a message and then turned off her phone. She just wants to tell him that she has chosen to leave his path. So when he finishes being intimate and sees the message, he should just stay in City B and not bother her anymore!

But when she saw him, she realized the damned longing in her heart. Why did she have to send that kind of text After tonight, maybe he would know about her reckless behavior, and he wouldn't care for her anymore. Why would she go to such lengths It was simply… simply… nothing but a sliver of hope, a glimmer of anticipation... the anticipation that he would really come!

She felt that she was utterly hopeless! Why did she have to keep having expectations of this man over and over again How had she become like this! What had happened to her!

She trembled and raised her hand, covering her face. Suddenly, she burst into tears, weeping in the gentle stream. She stood there, not wanting to come closer, just standing still. Crying, she didn't want him to see, just crying like that. He was so close, yet she dared not approach; she could be so intimate, yet she feared another intimacy!

She was afraid of the kind of hurt that might come with it!

She... already doesn't know what to do!

His arrival disrupted her resolute departure plan, derailing her path of utter destruction. He seemed to bring sunshine and hope, yet, where was the sunshine! Where was the hope! She drifted aimlessly, why did she always feel like she couldn't grasp it!

Rong Ling pursed his lips tightly, staring at the girl who was weeping so mournfully. He had no idea what she was crying about; all he could be sure of was that this was not tears of joy. He frowned deeply, troubled by everything he couldn't understand. It made him irritable, so irritable that he felt like destroying something!

"Don't you want me here!" he asked coldly.

"Hope I can let you go, and never care about you again, right" He continued coldly.

"I hope I can leave here now, so you can continue with what you were doing before, right!" A touch of severity had crept into her voice.

She remained silent, crying pitifully!

He clenched his jaw and balled his fists. "Fine, as you wish. I'll leave right now. Consider me never existed!"

After finishing his words, he turned and strode away, each step heavy and deliberate. His leather boots thudded against the floor, one by one, sounding like a death knell.

Lin Meng jumped, like a rabbit that had been shot in the ass, and suddenly leaped up to chase after the man who was about to leave.

“No!……” she cried out, clutching him desperately from behind. Maybe he wasn't a piece of driftwood, but he was the only straw she had to grasp, the only one she wanted to grasp. So, even if the final result was that she would be dragged down and drowned, this single hope was something she instinctively couldn't let go of!

“Don’t…don’t…” Her face pressed against his back, tears streaming down her face, she sobbed softly, perhaps, it was a plea for help. She might really be beyond saving now. At this moment, she had lowered herself so much, so low, as if to dust, yet, she still wished that this man could glance at her just once.

"Don't... Don't leave..." She wept, collapsing in a torrent of sobs. Her hands, all ten fingers, were faintly white as she clutched at him with desperation.

Everyone was shocked by the scene, listening to the cries and unable to bear to look any longer. Only Rong Ling slowly raised the corner of his mouth. He knew he had succeeded; this girl would definitely follow him wholeheartedly from now on!

Let her be anxious and tormented, let others push her to the brink, and then he appears like a god descending from heaven, rescuing her. In this way, he can become her god! He will make her realize that she can rely on no one but him, not even her family, let alone those so-called friends, or those malicious people lurking around her.

Let those people all go to hell!

In her heart, there could only be him, and she could only believe in him, rely on him. This was what Rong Lingyao wanted! He had raised her, so he must have everything from her, so that her heart could only belong to him!

Next, it was his turn to warn the men who had their eyes on her. He hated it when other men looked at his woman. Since this foolish woman didn't know how to refuse and was so oblivious that she thought everyone was just friends, then he would do it himself. However, once he made a move, there would surely be bloodshed!

He reached out and gently touched her icy hand, offering comfort. When her arm relaxed a little, he turned and pulled her close into his embrace. He held her tightly with one arm around her slender waist.

She was in his arms, still crying without any image, as if the world were coming to an end. He didn't say anything to comfort her because, with so many people watching. He just reached out and gently touched the top of her head, patted her, pressing her small face even closer to his chest. There, in the location of his heart, it was beating realistically.

She still reached out and held him tightly, burying her face deep in his chest.

He walked, and she followed. He stopped, and she stopped. There was no other thought, she was completely led by him. Perhaps, at this moment, she would rather be a koala with no thoughts, able to stay peacefully in the embrace of a big tree forever.

Rong Ling was certain that the woman in his arms would be obedient, so he slowly began to deal with Huang Liang. This man had thoroughly angered him, thinking of using those messy things on her. He would make him know what death was!

"You should know, she's my woman!" He glared at Huang Liang with malice, his eyes devoid of warmth, dark and bottomless like the night. "If you dare touch my woman, you should have the guts to face the consequences!"

“I… I… I didn’t know she was your woman, Rong Zong. I really didn’t know.” Huang Liang stammered, his words spilling out uncontrollably. He had only met Rong Ling once, at a dinner party. But back then, Rong Ling had been aloof and refined, exuding an elegant aura with no hint of aggression. People respected him solely because he was the president of Yadon Group. In reality, they didn’t truly know the man himself.”

This was the second time he had seen Rong Ling, but he hadn't expected Rong Ling to be like a different person. He was so gloomy, so violent, so full of murderous aura. Those sinister eyes felt like they could kill someone. Huang Liang vaguely felt that he might be killed by this young man who was almost two rounds younger than him!

Rong Ling looked down on Huang Liang's behavior, which was full of bravado but lacked the courage to acknowledge it. Even at this point, he dared to spout nonsense here. Rong Ling couldn't control his anger and yelled, "If you really don't know, then the entire nation should laugh at you!"

Huang Liang's face flushed red. This was the first time he had been scolded like this. He had been smooth sailing for so many years, used to being a big landowner and accustomed to being flattered, praised, and fawned over by people. He had a stubborn streak in him and immediately changed his expression, angrily snorting, "Rong Ling, you're being too much! Even if I know, so what It's just a woman. If you can play with her, why can't I! Besides, I haven't even started playing yet!"

"Damn it!" Rong Ling couldn't help but swear, he had heard enough. If he didn't teach him a lesson, he would really think Rong Ling wouldn't dare to do anything! Rong Ling stroked Lin Meng's small face with one hand and whispered, "Stand still and don't move, I'll be back in a moment."

Saying that, Lin Meng pulled Huang Liang's arm around his waist and walked towards Huang Liang. With every step closer, Huang Liang felt like Death was approaching him. Rong Ling's face was gloomy, with blood-red killing intent in his eyes. His tightly pursed lips revealed utter coldness. His strong and tall figure made Huang Liang, who could only reach Rong Ling's shoulder, feel incredibly oppressed.

“You… you don’t come any closer!” Huang Liang screamed in fright. Seeing Rong Ling still approach menacingly, his eyes gleamed with ferocity. He let out a howl and only then did he think of his men.

"Hold on, somebody, get him stopped! Come on, everyone's dead! Hurry!"

Those bodyguards only dared to watch from afar, not moving. They weren't fools either; someone capable of terrifying their big boss was definitely beyond the reach of these small fry in society. Don't be unwise and risk being swallowed whole by a bigger fish!

Huang Liang panicked, his slightly chubby body trembling. A cold sweat broke out all over him. His mind raced, thinking only of his vast wealth!

"Whoever... whoever stops him, I'll give him one million! Hurry, hurry, stop him!"

One million, that's no small sum. An ordinary household could live comfortably for a lifetime just on this one million. Such high profit, yet still no one dares to touch it!

Rong Ling gave a cold smile, his big hand already on Huang Liang's shoulder, gripping tightly.

Huang Liang trembled heavily, his legs went weak, and his body bent low, almost kneeling before Rong Ling. "Mr. Rong, please...don't...I apologize...you are magnanimous...please don't hold a grudge against me, a small person...ah!"

Huang Liang immediately let out a shriek that sounded like a pig being slaughtered, his eyes wide with disbelief as he stared at Rong Ling.

Rong Ling slowly retracted the fist she had aimed at his abdomen, a slight smile playing on her lips. It was a smile that resembled a demon's. "I'm not a big person, dealing with someone like you, I prefer to be a villain!"

His laughter hadn't stopped yet, when he threw another punch, like a tiger leaping from the mountain, slamming it hard into Huangliang's abdomen. Huangliang writhed in pain, his legs completely giving way. Besides the white foam that flowed from his mouth, a trickle of blood also escaped. If not for Rongling gripping his shoulders with one hand, he would have collapsed to the ground at this moment. Rongling still wore an evil smirk and landed another punch on Huangliang, leaving him only rolling his whites of his eyes, his face pale and twisted like a water ghost.

One side's onlookers were even more terrified. This man could laugh nonchalantly while unleashing brutal attacks. His calmness and effortless control over the entire situation were terrifying, even more so than a demon, yet incomparable to anyone else. Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glad they hadn't challenged him just now!

After three punches, Huang Liang was left unable to rest easy for half a month. Only then did Rong Ling release his grip.

Huang Liang immediately softened like a puddle of mud, crashing heavily onto the floor.

Feng Ling slanted his eyes to look at the messy bed, a trace of blood red flashing in his eyes. He couldn't help but raise his foot and kick him several times. He wanted to pick up those ugly things and smash them onto this old man's body, but he didn't, because he thought it was disgusting!

He lifted his foot and nudged Huang Liang's chin. Huang Liang lay there like an old dog, mouth gaping, panting heavily, groaning with each labored breath, his eyes half-closed with weariness as he stared at Rong Ling silently.

"After you go back, hurry up and prepare for your funeral, I'll make sure to give you a proper send-off!" This person, he has to die!

Huang Liang's consciousness, which was still clinging to a faint glimmer of clarity, jolted at these words. His awareness cleared up by half.

"You...what is this... What do you mean!" He coughed up blood as he struggled to raise his head, glaring hatefully at Rong Ling.

Rong Ling let out a cold snort. "That's what I mean. You're not stupid, you should understand!" In front of so many people, he naturally wouldn't explicitly say that he wanted to kill him!

Huang Liang was pushed out of his last bit of blood by these words. He unwillingly roared, “Rong Ling... you don't… be too... arrogant... I… am not… that easy… to deal with... cough... cough... you go out and find out... find out... , Huang Liang in… this province… is also number one… big shot… If you dare to mess with me, I will… make you look good!”

Rong Ling turned her head back to him, a smirk playing on her lips as if his words were incredibly amusing. That condescending look completely angered Huang Liang.

You bastard… Don’t get too cocky… You dare to hit me I’ll have you thrown in jail when I get back. All these people here… are… witnesses…

Rong Ling fiercely frowned, suddenly lunged forward. In a flash, he was before Huang Liang, his speed as swift as a ghost. He abruptly crouched down, and in the blink of an eye, a black pistol appeared in Rong Ling's hand.

In the blink of an eye, Rong Ling had already aimed his gun precisely at Huang Liang's temple, holding it firmly in place. As everyone gasped in shock, Rong Ling snarled menacingly, "Believe me or not, I can shoot you dead right now!"

That's a real handgun, the genuine article!

Everyone present was shocked. In today's harmonious society, who would still have such a powerful weapon Once possessed, the police would have arrested him long ago. Rong Ling dared to carry this thing with him, which means...

It is known to a select few that certain individuals who have made extraordinary contributions to the nation are granted special firearm permits by the state. Furthermore, these permits allow them to fire their weapons under specific circumstances! But just how significant must these contributions be

This bullying, his identity, must be frightening!

Huang Liang was so frightened that he almost wet his pants. He could feel the coldness of the muzzle on his skin so clearly, as if he had already stepped into the icy gates of hell. He felt that perhaps even without firing, Rong Ling's grip on his temple with the gun would have killed him. The force was so strong, it felt like it could pierce his skull at any moment!

Huang Liang was truly frightened this time. He wanted to plead for mercy, beg his grandpa and grandma, but he was too scared. For the first time, someone had a gun pointed at his head. His lips trembled so much from fear that he couldn't even utter a word! Finally, under everyone's gaze, he did something very embarrassing—he wet himself! The pale yellow liquid quickly stained his white robe yellow, slowly spreading across the dark floor. The slightly sour smell made Rong Ling disgusted. He retracted the gun and slapped him hard before striding away.

"Coward!"

Rong Ling coldly cursed, put away the gun, and once again embraced the pale Lin Meng, leaving.

Those standing by were now frozen in place, afraid to even twitch lest they draw Rong Ling's attention and meet a bullet to the head! Their hearts pounded with fear, wishing they could cry out to their parents for help. In their eyes, Rong Ling had become a figure more terrifying than the devil himself!

Before Rong Ling could even reach the door, Yu Xu arrived with his people. Upon seeing Rong Ling, he immediately asked, "Brother, are you alright"

Then, he noticed Lin Meng in Rong Ling's arms. His eyes flickered and he smiled.

Rong Ling commanded in a low voice, "Leave this to you. Clean it up properly!"

The underlying meaning in these words could cause fear among these guards, but no one dared to make a move.

Yu Xu smiled and gestured with his fists toward Rong Ling, a silent signal between brothers that everything would be taken care of.

Rong Ling nodded, was about to leave, then stopped.

"Fourth brother, tell someone to bring a large bath towel!"

Even though Lin Meng still had her clothes on, the wet fabric clung to her body, highlighting her curves perfectly. Rong Ling didn't want others to see her beauty, not even through her clothes!

Yu Xu told one of his subordinates who had followed him to go do something.

Nang over there caught sight of Gu Jianxi standing there, looking somewhat dishevelled. It seemed he had taken quite a beating in the fight. Nang narrowed his eyes and locked onto Gu Jianxi, frowning slightly before speaking in a cold voice: "Considering your actions just now, I won't hold it against you for everything you've done these past few days. However, I warned you, stay away from her. So, from now on, you better keep a low profile and don't have any thoughts that you shouldn't. Your grandfather may be protective, but being in his position, there are some things he can't touch, things that simply cannot be touched. Go back and think about it carefully!"

Gu Jianxi's face tightened, he glanced at Rong Ling's waist, curled his lip, snorted coldly, and left. The place where he looked was just where Rong Ling had put the gun a moment ago.

Over there, a nimble-footed subordinate had already brought over a large bath towel. Rong Ling took it and carefully wrapped Lin Meng up, only leaving a small head exposed.

"I'm leaving first!" he said to Yu Xu.

Yu Xu replied, "After I'm done, I'll report to you!"

Rong Ling nodded, taking Lin Meng away. As they stood by the elevator, waiting for it to arrive, Rong Ling suddenly said, "Don't intervene, she is my woman. I will personally seek justice for her!"

Lin Meng was confused and didn't know who he was talking to. All she knew was that he mentioned her. So, she secretly turned her head to look out, but Rong Ling grabbed her head and wouldn't let her move. Just then, the elevator arrived. As soon as the door opened, Rong Ling pulled Lin Meng into the elevator.

As the elevator doors closed, at the corner, Xiao Yi in his sharp attire slowly emerged. He clenched his fists, watching the elevator descend floor by floor, his expression unreadable!

He had always had people watching Lin Meng. Today, when he received the news, he came immediately. Unexpectedly, he ran into Rong Ling, who was also in a hurry, in the hotel lobby. Xiao Yi was surprised to see Rong Ling. At this moment, Rong Ling shouldn't be here. Although cities J and B are close, it takes at least an hour to fly. This doesn't include waiting for the plane; even if Rong Ling drove over himself, speeding on the highway, it would take at least three or four hours. He could appear here so quickly in less than twenty minutes, which means—Rong Ling returned to city J early this morning! But he didn't tell anyone and his whereabouts were mysterious, even hiding from the subordinates he had sent to watch him. Why was that!

Until Rong Ling stopped him, her voice commanding and her presence intimidating as she laid out her terms, he only vaguely began to understand!

"This is my business, stay out of it. I can return the favor and not cause you any major trouble for now, allowing you to focus on dealing with the old folks within your organization. How about it!"

This is a very tempting offer that Rongling proposed!

You have to know, if Rong Ling uses his own power to incite those deeply rooted old-timers within the Silver Wolf Gang to cause trouble, Xiao Yi will be kept incredibly busy and utterly exhausted. He won't even have time to spare, let alone energy. What’s worse, if Rong Ling is ruthless enough, he might even force Xiao Yi to withdraw his forces from City J.

Now, he actually gave him such a big pie for nothing! Isn't that strange!

It has to be said, Rong Ling is not a good person. He wouldn't just give out such large benefits for no reason, unless what he gains in return, in his eyes, far outweighs these given benefits.

Then, what can Rong Ling gain!

He nodded in agreement, also because he thought that perhaps the girl hoped more that it would be Rong Ling who came to save her, so he didn't intervene or show his face, but watched a good show from the sidelines!

Only when Rong Ling truly showed his power did he understand what Rong Ling had obtained!

One woman's heart!

A complete woman's heart!

To put someone in a desperate situation and then exploit their weakness, followed by luring them out and finally striking with overwhelming force – it's undeniable that Rong Ling's arrangements are clever, brilliant, and truly admirable!

This person is indeed ruthless, vicious, fierce, cunning, and generous!

Warning him against making a move, then what does Rong Ling intend to do next—kill one to warn the rest!

Xiao Yi slowly narrowed his eyes and hummed softly in his heart: Rong Ling, he really is a tough opponent!“That's great. Youyou, thank you, you've done a great favor for your godfather!”The little guy was immediately puffed up with pride. Raising his hand, he covered his mouth with his small hands and sec...
