When Song Zhou heard Jiang Jingchen say that he wanted to go into the maple forest alone, he stopped him worriedly.
“Young Master, you must be careful. I’ll follow you in secret. Just give us a signal when needed!”
“Okay.”
Jiang Jingchen was expressionless as he strode away.
Walking into the maple forest, although the footpath was lit, the maple forest was lush and blocked the light. It got darker as he walked deeper into the forest.
Jiang Jingchen observed his surroundings as he moved forward. The autumn wind blew loudly, and dead branches crackled under feet, making the night feel eerily quiet.
As the surroundings got darker, a bright light suddenly shone in his eyes. Jiang Jingchen shielded his eyes with his hands as he felt a chill on his back. He agilely dodged sideways and then saw a fat man holding an iron rod next to him.
When the fat man attacked again, he dodged and pulled out a thin rope from his wrist to strangle the man.
When another ray of light shone on Jiang Jingchen, he pulled the fat man in front of him to block the light. Using his back foot, he kicked away another man who was attacking him from behind.
His movements were swift. In the dark maple forest, the two men holding flashlights became targets for Jiang Jingchen to attack.
“Jiang Jingchen, if you continue, I’ll kill this woman!” A rough voice suddenly sounded.
Jiang Jingchen looked ahead and saw a brawny man strangling Tang Beibei’s neck. Tang Beibei’s mouth was taped and she whimpered in pain.
Jiang Jingchen let go of the string he tied around the fat man’s neck. The fat man fell to the ground and breathed heavily to recover from his suffocation.
The man who was kicked away also rubbed his injury as he walked behind Jiang Jingchen with a gloomy face and kicked him hard. Jiang Jingchen staggered forward.
“Let my wife go. We can discuss whatever you want.”
The brawny man said, “We want to cripple you and then f*ck this woman.”
Jiang Jingchen said, “You can cripple me if you want, but don’t touch that woman.”
“Oh my. Didn’t you say that you guys are getting a divorce? Now you feel heartache? Not only will we cripple you today, but we’ll also f*ck your wife in front of you. Jiang Jingchen, aren’t you quite capable? Hahaha!”
The brawny man laughed wantonly and arrogantly.
Jiang Jingchen looked at him coldly. “How much did Jiang Minglang pay for your lives?”
The fat man interrupted, “Are you still acting cool at a time like this? Your life is at stake now, yet you are behaving so arrogantly. Bastard!”
The fat man was almost strangled to death. He was furious with Jiang Jingchen and wanted to kick him.
However, Jiang Jingchen didn’t let him have his way. He grabbed the fat man’s leg and snapped it decisively before he grabbed his neck.
He was so ruthless that the fat man couldn’t even scream for help. He just stared at Jiang Jingchen in horror.
This man’s skills were very impressive!
Jiang Jingchen then said, “You have a hostage. Now 1 have one too. If you don’t care about your brother’s life here, go ahead and kill that woman.”
“If I divorce her, she’ll take away half my assets. If you kill her, I just need to fork out some money for a funeral.”
“However, if you kill her, even if you escape today, I’ll pay assassins to hunt you down.”
“You guys are just working for Jiang Minglang. Use your brain. When I blow this matter up and find the mastermind who is Jiang Minglang, do you think he’ll help you escape as he tries to salvage his own reputation?”
The brawny man did not expect Jiang Jingchen to be so ruthless. He would even use him to kill his wife in order to protect his assets.
“B-Boss, save, save me!” The fat man pleaded.
The boss’ expression was unsightly. He looked at the woman whose eyes were filled with despair and tightened his grip around her neck.
“Jiang Jingchen, can you really be so ruthless? You were clearly very loving with her during the day!”
Jiang Jingchen and Tang Beibei looked at each other. He saw her pain and his eyes turned red, but he endured it.
He let out a cold chuckle, raised his arm and knocked the fat man unconscious before throwing him to the side in disgust.
He then said, “Don’t you bring any special equipment when you’re out on business? Huh?”
Jiang Jingchen put his hand on his back. Anyone who had seen a gangster movie would know that this was the action of a police officer drawing his weapon.
The brawny man pulled Tang Beibei back nervously. The other men was also frightened.
They were here to cripple Jiang Jingchen, not to kill him, so they didn’t bring that kind of equipment.
Jiang Jingchen said, “Just now 1 asked you how much Jiang Minglang paid for your lives, I wasn’t joking.”
“If I bury your bodies here, do you think Jiang Minglang will come here, dig your bodies up and then give you a proper funeral?”
The brawny man was getting scared now. His breathing was chaotic when he said, “You! If you dare to kill us, 1’11 bury this woman with us.”
“Mm, let her die with you then. I’ve already said that you’ll be doing me a favor by killing her. I still have to thank you, so hurry up and do it!”
The brawny man was in a dilemma.
Jiang Jingchen pressed on, “If you want to live, let that woman go. I’ll pay you double to lie to Jiang Minglang. 1’11 let you live if you agree!”
The brawny man hesitated for a moment and that when Jiang Jingchen quickly stepped forward, grabbed his arm and strangled the brawny man’s neck with another thin string from his wrist.
“Boss!”
The other two men were angry and anxious as they watched their boss being threatened by Jiang Jingchen, but they did not dare to go forward.
“You, you said those words on purpose just to save this woman!” The brawny man said angrily.
Jiang Jingchen sneered and kicked his knee. “Of course, 1 will save my wife. If you weaklings dare to hurt my wife, I will kill you!”
At this moment, Song Zhou and two other men rushed over and grabbed the other two men. Song Zhou tied the four of them together with ropes.
Jiang Jingchen quickly went over and tore off the tape on Tang Beibei’s face. Tang Beibei cried out in a muffled voice. The tape was stuck to her hair and Jiang Jingchen’s action had yanked off some of her hair.
Jiang Jingchen apologized. He untied her and scooped her up.
“I’m sorry, Beibei. I’m late.”
Tang Beibei looked at him ambivalently. “You said something about divorce. Did you really mean it?”
Jiang Jingchen placed her on a step and asked softly, “Are you hurt anywhere else?”
“Jiang Jingchen, answer my question.”
Jiang Jingchen looked at her. Behind him was the dark night, and behind her was a streetlamp.
His told her softly, “Of course it’s a lie.”
“Beibei, you are my life. How can I possibly live without you? I mentioned the divorce as a delay tactic. I had to be mean to you so they wouldn’t hurt you.”
Tang Beibei didn’t feel secure. When she heard him mention divorce during times of danger, her heart went into a frenzy.
“Are you really not going divorce me?”
Jiang Jingchen asked her to stand on the step. He was standing below her step but still had to lower his head slightly to kiss her.
He pressed his lips against hers and said, “Beibei, I admit defeat.”
“What for?”
