Xiao Feng did not know what Xiao Yi meant. Even though he was the big boss of the gang, he was still following Xiao Yi’s lead. Xiao Yi did not let him do anything, so he stepped aside and looked at Ku Li and Yi Ran guardedly.
The atmosphere in the room was very solemn and the air was filled with murderous intent.
Yi Ran stood to the side with her shoulders hunched, not daring to breathe.
Xiao Yi and Ku Li confronted each other, their eyes bloodthirsty and venomous.
“Okay, now that you’ve recognized me, let’s not beat around the bush. You killed my old father. How are we going to settle this?”
Yi Ran and Xiao Feng were stunned. Xiao Yi had killed Ku Li’s father?
Straightening his back, Xiao Yi raised his chin, his eyes murderous. “Your father tortured and humiliated my Aunt Qing and caused her to hang herself. And now you want to inherit her mother’s fortune? Ku Li, how dare you?”
Not only was he shameless, he was utterly void of conscience!
Ku Li looked up and laughed. After laughing, he glared at Xiao Yi with hate. “Your Aunt Qing sold herself willingly to my old father in order to support you. Didn’t she die because you were a burden to her? She sold herself to my old father and became his. It’s his business how he wanted to torture and humiliate her!”
“F*cking bullsh*t!” Xiao Yi’s face was tensed and the vein on his forehead was throbbing. “It was clearly your old father who fancied my Aunt Qing and forcibly abducted her. She gave in when he used my life to intimidate and blackmail her!”
Thinking about how Aunt Qing was thrown behind the mountain after her death, her abandoned corpse in such a terrible state with maggots crawling over, Xiao Yi’s blood surged, clamored and hatred surged from his heart. His hand holding the pistol tightened so much his knuckles were turning white. “I’ll shoot you to death today!”
Ku Li’s eyes were red as well and directly faced Xiao Yi, who was pointing the muzzle of the pistol at him, showing he had no fear. Pulling off his coat, he was covered with bombs of all sizes.
“Come on, shoot! I’ll see which is faster, your bullet, or my bomb!”
When Yi Ran, who was closest to Ku Li, saw those bombs, her pupils constricted. “Why… why did you…”
Ku Li looked at Yi Ran, his voice gruff. “That’s right. Either my plan succeeds, or everyone here will die together!”
Yi Ran’s hair stood on end.
Ku Li looked at Xiao Yi with red eyes, his face full of hatred. “When you quit the mafia, I regretted so much that I was unable to kill you with one hit. I thought you would die on the withdrawal ceremony, but who knew you would survive.
“I then asked Yi Ran, who looked like Xia Yanran, to look for you at Bardahl and let her slowly get close to you and gain your trust. My plan would have succeeded, but that sympathetic Yi Ran not only wanted money, she also wanted you. But, it doesn’t matter in the end. Today, we’ll all die and when we’re in Hell, I’ll force you down to kowtow and repent for your sins in front of my father!
“I’ve hidden this hatred in my heart for many years and I couldn’t find the right opportunity to kill you. I think God has given me the best opportunity tonight!”
Ku Li gave an eerily cold smile. “Now, the bomb is starting the countdown. Ten, nine…”
Xiao Yi frowned. “Fall back, everybody fall back…”
Before Xiao Yi could finish, a figure suddenly rushed in from the door and was so quick Xiao Feng did not have the time to react. In a blink of an eye, that person had already hugged Ku Li’s waist and was rushing towards the window with him.
Ku Li did not expect that someone would rush behind him. He was pushed and he stumbled forward a few steps. Before he could stand firm, he was held by someone and was rushed towards the window.
Xiao Yi reacted first. He reached out his hand, wanting to pull that person who was hugging Ku Li and wanted to die together, but he was too late.
“Tang Chao!”
Xiao Yi roared hoarsely.
But, he did not hear Tang Chao’s response as an ear-splitting explosion sounded.
Xiao Feng threw himself towards Xiao Yi. “Brother Xiao, get down!”
Although Ku Li was brought out of the room by Tang Chao, the impact of the blast was not small. The whole mansion shook with it. The light, cabinets, cups in the room were scattered all over the ground.
Xiao Yi was pressed down on the ground by Xiao Feng, but soon, he pushed Xiao Feng away.
Like an angered lion, he stood up from the ground and to the window, his eyes red.
There was a raging fire downstairs and thick smoke was billowing everywhere. It was hard to see what the situation was like in all the chaos that ensued.
Several trees were blown down by the blast and it was a mess everywhere they looked.
A roar ripped out from Xiao Yi’s dry throat and his eyes were so red it seemed like blood was dripping out. His chest seemed to have been severely torn apart.
“Tang Chao, why are you so stupid?!”
Xiao Yi wanted to jump down directly from the window, but Xiao Feng held him down. “Brother Xiao, the fire’s too strong. If you jump down, you’ll get hurt even if you don’t die! I’ll take people down to look for Tang Chao now!”
Xiao Yi pushed Xiao Feng away and rushed downstairs with his face tensed.
Before leaving, he glanced at the trembling Yi Ran by the corner. “Keep an eye on her.”
Yi Ran shivered, feeling an endless fear and despair spreading from the bottom of her heart. She wrapped her arms around herself tightly and her eyelashes fluttered violently.
She kept telling herself that it was all right. Didn’t she still have a safety amulet?
Xia Yanran was unable to get pregnant and now she was pregnant with his child. Even if he wanted to kill her, the child was innocent. He would not be so cruel to want to kill her and the child!
Xiao Feng asked his men to keep an eye on Yi Ran. Thinking that she knew hypnosis, Xiao Feng asked one of the bodyguards to take off his socks and the bodyguard was puzzled. “Brother Feng, what are we doing?”
“This woman is really something. Tie a knot with the socks and blindfold her with it. Let’s see if she can still hypnotize people like that!”
Yi Ran’s expression changed and she glared at Xiao Feng, but Xiao Feng did not look at her. Yi Ran was beyond furious. “Xiao Feng, how dare you do this to me? I’m pregnant with Brother Xiao Yi’s child. No matter how angry he is with me, he will still forgive me for the sake of the child. You…”
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Xiao Feng. He pointed at another bodyguard. “Take your socks off too and stuff it into her mouth. This woman’s mouth is even smellier than your socks.”
Yi Ran struggled violently and was like an angry beast, cursing them. But she was no match for the strength of the tall bodyguard. Very soon, her eyes were covered by the smelly socks and her mouth stuffed by another pair of smelly socks when she wanted to speak.
She felt uncomfortable in her stomach and wanted to pull out the smelly socks, but her hands were held by the bodyguard. All she could do in her helpless state, was to curse Xiao Feng’s ancestors in her heart. If she could free herself, she would definitely cut Xiao Feng into pieces!
