Chapter 662: Could You Repeat That?

He felt the stinging pain on his face.

The skinny middle-aged man was burning with rage as he shouted at Xu Shaochen, “Are you looking for death?”

“Damn it! Kill him for me!”

As soon as his words fell, the lackeys, armed with sledgehammers and iron rods typically used for demolitions, all coldly stared at Xu Shaochen.

“Swish!”

In the next second, they all calmed down.

Because Long Yi and Long Er pulled out their handguns.

The group that had been glaring fiercely instantly became panic-stricken, all turning their gaze to the skinny middle-aged man.

They were used to bullying commoners. When had they ever seen something as high-level as a handgun? Naturally, they were gripped by fear. After all, if a gun goes off, someone could die.

Xu Shaochen reached out and patted the skinny middle-aged man’s face, showing a disdainful smile. “Weren’t you going to kill me? Here, I’ll give you a chance. Try it.”

As Xu Shaochen lightly patted his face, the man’s expression turned several shades of red and white, feeling utterly humiliated and furious inside.

But with the two pitch-black handguns staring him down, he didn’t dare make a move. He could only endure Xu Shaochen’s humiliation.

“Slap!”

Suddenly, Xu Shaochen’s right hand slapped harder. The sound of the slap echoed as it hit the skinny man’s face.

Blood trickled from the corner of the man’s mouth as he clenched his fists and glared at Xu Shaochen with rage in his eyes.

“I gave you a chance to kill me, but you couldn’t do it. Then why act so tough earlier?”

Xu Shaochen grabbed the skinny man’s hair and yanked it down slightly, “Hm? You were acting all tough earlier. Speak up! I’m telling you to speak!”

“Don’t go too far!” the skinny man finally snapped. It was the first time he had suffered such humiliation.

“Heh…”

Xu Shaochen laughed lightly, grabbed the handgun from Long Yi, and pressed it against the skinny man’s head. “What did you say earlier? I didn’t quite catch that. Could you repeat it?”

“Gulp…”

Feeling the cold barrel of the gun, the man’s throat moved convulsively, his face turning even paler. Sweat beaded on his forehead, and he tightly shut his mouth without daring to speak.

For a moment, it seemed as if time had frozen.

The group of older men exchanged glances, clearly unsure of where Li Qi had found such powerful friends.

“Bang!”

Xu Shaochen made a sound with his mouth, mimicking the noise of a gun firing.

“Ah!”

The skinny man shrieked and dropped to the ground, trembling as he hugged his head.

After a long while, he realized nothing had happened, and when he lifted his head, he was greeted by Xu Shaochen’s mocking smile.

Realizing he had been played, he was both shocked and furious. He didn’t need to be told; he knew he must have looked utterly ridiculous just now.

“Bang!”

Xu Shaochen casually tossed the handgun back to Long Yi and kicked the skinny man to the ground, his tone calm: “Call your boss. Tell him to come here immediately. This is beyond your control, dog.”

Being called a dog enraged the skinny man, but there was nothing he could do.

He could only pull out his Phone and dial his employer’s number, “Hello, Director Li? We can’t proceed here. Someone is stopping us, and they’ve got guns.”

After hanging up, he sneered internally, ‘Damn, just wait until Director Li gets here. Let’s see how long you can keep acting tough.’

‘I’ll pay you back for the humiliation I just suffered a hundredfold.’

“Are you thinking that once your boss arrives, you’ll have a shot at revenge?”

Xu Shaochen spoke lightly.

The skinny man shuddered and stammered, “N-no… I’m definitely not thinking that.”

“It’s fine if you are. After all, people without dreams are no different from salted fish. It’s just that your dream isn’t one that will come true.”

Xu Shaochen spoke breezily.

The skinny man remained silent, too scared to say anything.

Xu Shaochen pointed at the yellow excavator and looked at Li Qi, saying, “Don’t you think that thing’s a bit of an eyesore? Smash it. Smash it to pieces.”

After giving the order, Xu Shaochen turned to a youth holding a sledgehammer, “Brother, mind if I borrow your hammer for a bit?”

The youth glanced at the man on the ground before nervously handing the hammer to Li Qi.

Clenching his teeth, Li Qi climbed onto the excavator and began smashing the control room with the hammer.

The man on the ground could hear the destruction, and it pained him deeply.

That excavator was brand new. It was the first time he’d even used it, and now it was being smashed to bits.

As Li Qi fervently swung the hammer on the excavator, Xu Shaochen sent a message to Long San.

He asked him to bring more people with him, just in case they ended up in a tough spot later.

After all, the skinny man had just told Director Li over the Phone that they had guns.

If Director Li dared to show up, he’d definitely bring more men and more guns. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the guts to come here today.

“Vroom… Vroom…”

About twenty minutes later, the rumble of engines filled the air.

A convoy of four black Mercedes arrived.

As the Cars stopped, a group of sharp-looking men in suits got out.

One young man walked up and respectfully opened the back door of a Maybach.

A middle-aged man wearing a black trench coat and glasses stepped out of the Car.

“Director Li, thank goodness you’re here! They were out of control, even pointing a gun at my head!”

Seeing the middle-aged man, the skinny guy scrambled up and ran over to him with the eagerness of a dog greeting its master.

Director Li merely nodded and continued walking toward Xu Shaochen with his people behind him.

Seeing this, Li Qi and the group of old men’s expressions changed drastically. Judging by Director Li’s demeanor, it was clear he had full confidence in himself.

“Director Li, it’s him! If it wasn’t for him, we’d have already demolished that house! He even held a gun to my head!”

The skinny man glared venomously at Xu Shaochen as he spoke, taking pleasure in his misfortune. He couldn’t wait to see Xu Shaochen begging for mercy.

“Kid, what do they call you? Why don’t you tell your dogs to put away their guns? We all have them, no need to flaunt.”

Director Li glanced dismissively at Long Yi and Long Er, his tone casual as if he was looking down at Xu Shaochen from above.

As he finished speaking, the bodyguards he had brought also pulled out their guns, aiming them at Xu Shaochen and his group.

Director Li shrugged dramatically and looked at Xu Shaochen with a mocking smile, “See? I told you, we all have these things.”
