Chapter 9 - Overlord

Seeing this, Ye Fengwu finally realized that his emotions had gotten out of control. He was... too worried about Qin Qinghan. Of course, he was also angry, angry that Qin Qinghan, knowing full well that this visit was disadvantageous to him, still wanted to risk it all.

But soon, Ye Fengwu regretted his earlier outburst toward Qin Qinghan. Right now, he couldn't leave her with any bad impression. So, Ye Fengwu twitched his lips, forced out a stiff smile, and said, "Well, I'm just venting for you."

As he spoke, Ye Fengwu crushed the other leg of Jin Bao. He had already asked Lin Qiang to investigate Jin Bao, and learned that this man had done many heinous things, including violating numerous women.

Ye Fengwu could hardly imagine that if he had arrived a little later, Qin Qinghan would have been bullied. In that case, he would never have forgiven himself for the rest of his life.

Jin Bao had already passed out from the pain, but Ye Fengwu clearly wasn't tired. He was willing to spend most of his strength tormenting such a person.

So, Ye Fengwu poured the entire bottle of red wine over Jin Bao's head.

"Aah..."

Jin Bao woke up in agony again. He lay on the ground, unable to move, and could only grit his teeth and say, "Kid, you... have such cruel methods. Do you know who I am?"

Bang~!

Ye Fengwu swung the empty wine bottle directly at Jin Bao's head. As Jin Bao howled in pain, Ye Fengwu plunged the sharp half of the wine bottle directly into Jin Bao's shoulder.

This scene was extremely violent, so much so that Qin Qinghan didn't even dare to look.

She had expected Ye Fengwu to be violent, but never imagined him to be this violent. His methods of torture made her scalp tingle.

Suddenly, Ye Fengwu pulled up a chair, sat down, and said to Jin Bao, "You're not even worthy of me knowing you. But I should know your boss."

Pah~!

Jin Bao spat out a mouthful of blood-filled saliva. He never imagined he would suffer such inhumane torture. This person... was too arrogant.

However, when he heard that Ye Fengwu claimed to know his boss, Jin Bao laughed wildly, "You talk big. How could our boss know someone like you? I admit defeat today, but my boss will definitely take revenge for me. Just wait to be torn to pieces. Your woman will also—ah!"

Before Jin Bao could finish his sentence, Ye Fengwu stomped on his bloodied and mangled hand, causing the sound of breaking bones to make everyone shudder.

Qin Qinghan's face turned pale as she said, "We... should leave. We can't afford to provoke Fenghao Real Estate."

Although Qin Qinghan had never met the boss behind Fenghao Real Estate, she had heard about him from her grandfather.

The underground world of Haihua City was divided between two figures: Donglong Overlord and Xihu Heifeng. They controlled all the gray forces in Haihua City, and the Qin Family was considered a prominent family in the city.

Even so, the Qin Family dared not challenge either Donglong or Xihu.

And the boss behind Fenghao Real Estate was none other than Jiang Hao, known as Donglong Overlord, a ruthless character who rose to power in just eight years. It was said that he had at least a hundred lives under his command to get to where he was today.

Ye Fengwu didn't get up, instead lighting a cigarette and saying, "Aren't we here to discuss a project? If it falls through, wouldn't your grandfather throw you under the bus and have you dismissed?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Qinghan's heart sank. If she lost her life, what use was a project?

Just as she was about to say something else, the sound of screeching brakes suddenly came from outside, followed by the constant opening and closing of car doors.

In that moment, Qin Qinghan's face turned ashen.

Jin Bao, in intense pain, laughed manically, "Haha... just wait to die, kid."

In an instant, dozens of vicious figures appeared at the door, each holding a steel pipe.

This scene frightened Qin Qinghan, and she instinctively moved closer to Ye Fengwu.

Ye Fengwu remained as calm as ever. He pulled out a chair, patted it, and said, "Come, sit down, and wait to sign the project."

Ye Fengwu's words left Qin Qinghan at a loss. If it weren't for her good upbringing, she would have cursed him. Even at a time like this, he was still thinking about the project.

But she knew that whether they lived or died, they had no choice but to follow him.

So, Qin Qinghan sat down in the chair, though her whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"If you dare to make trouble in my Fenghao Construction Department, you'd better give me a reason why you should leave alive."

At that moment, a path was cleared in the crowd at the door, and a burly figure stepped forward.

This person appeared to be in his late twenties or early thirties, dressed in a black trench coat. A hideous scar ran down from his left eye to his cheek, making his previously handsome face look even more menacing.

Just one glance, and Qin Qinghan's face turned pale again. Although she had never met Jiang Hao, she had heard him described before. That distinctive scar could only belong to Jiang Hao.

The one known as Donglong Overlord, who could dominate the underground world of Haihua City.

In that moment, Qin Qinghan knew that she and Ye Fengwu were both going to die here. As Donglong Overlord, Jiang Hao could easily kill two people. Even the Qin Family would never have the courage to call the police.

So, Qin Qinghan turned to Ye Fengwu and said, "I'm sorry. I've gotten you into trouble."

She hated Ye Fengwu, hated that he was a rapist, but that didn't mean she was heartless. After all, Ye Fengwu had come to save her.

Ye Fengwu turned to look at Qin Qinghan, his face stiff, and said, "Wife, if we survive today, will you marry me tomorrow? I always feel uneasy until we're officially married."

As he spoke, Ye Fengwu boldly grabbed Qin Qinghan's hand. It was cold to the touch, and she was clearly scared out of her wits.

Qin Qinghan tried to break free, but Ye Fengwu's grip was too strong. She couldn't escape, so she could only let him hold her hand.

She wanted to refuse, but when she saw the slightly exaggerated, pitiful look in his eyes, she softened in her heart. Perhaps they wouldn't survive until tomorrow. So, she nodded, "Alright."

Seeing Qin Qinghan agree, Ye Fengwu immediately grinned.

However, this smile didn't last long. Ye Fengwu's face slowly turned cold, and he looked at Jiang Hao, saying, "My wife came to discuss a project, and your men dared to touch her. Is this a good enough reason?"

Hearing Ye Fengwu's words, Qin Qinghan's face showed a bitter expression. What kind of reason was that? Jiang Hao and Jin Bao were like a nest of snakes and rats. He didn't really need a reason.

"Brother Hao, help me kill this b*st*rd," Jin Bao struggled to raise his head, pleading with Jiang Hao.

At this moment, Jiang Hao's grim expression was strange and unusual. His gaze, upon entering the room, never left Ye Fengwu. Even his burly body was subtly trembling.

"Brother Hao, you have to help me, please," Jin Bao continued pleading.

Although Jiang Hao stood still, his title as Donglong Overlord and the imposing aura of authority emanating from him made Qin Qinghan too scared to look up.

She felt like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Finally, Jiang Hao spoke, his voice hoarse and deep, "Wake them all up."

Upon hearing this, his subordinates were momentarily stunned, but they still stepped forward to kick awake the six young men Ye Fengwu had knocked out.

As the six youths woke up, they screamed in agony, each having several broken ribs.

"Brother Hao…"

"Brother Hao…"

...

The six of them, enduring the pain in their bodies, greeted Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao's expression was terrifyingly cold. He then reached out and grabbed a steel pipe from one of his subordinates, swinging it at one of the youths' thighs.

The force of the blow was tremendous, without any mercy.

Bang~!

Ah~!

The sound of a scream and bone breaking filled the air.

The blow caught the young man and everyone else off guard, even causing Qin Qinghan to gasp in shock.

After breaking one youth's leg, Jiang Hao didn't stop. He swung the steel pipe again, hitting another youth's thigh.

Crack~!

With a scream, the second youth collapsed to the ground, his leg bent in an unnatural way.

"Brother... Brother Hao, what... what did we do wrong?"

Seeing this, the other four youths were frightened out of their wits. They didn't dare to move, only asking in a terrified voice what they had done wrong.

However, anyone who knew Jiang Hao would never have asked such a question, because Jiang Hao always had his reasons for doing anything.
