The shortie was about to succeed when he saw the person he had just knocked down with a brick stand up, causing him to stare in shock.
He had put all his strength into it, and with a hit from the brick, the person should have been dead or turned into an idiot.
But the guy in front of him seemed totally fine, with not even a trace of blood on his head—impossible.
"Lin Chen, run! Don't worry about me," Qin Lan struggled to shout as she saw Lin Chen stand up.
This shortie was too strong, even she was no match for him. If Lin Chen ran, there might be a chance of survival, but staying here meant certain death with her.
"Kid, you think you can run? No way, you're both going to die today," said the shortie as he got up again, a shiny dagger now in his hand.
"Run? Who said I was going to run? To dare hit me with a brick... let me tell you, big brother is very angry, and the consequences are serious," Lin Chen said with a smile, standing across from the shortie.
