The muzzles of the guns were dark and gloomy. They stared at the crowd in front of them like creepy monsters. As for these twenty spear-wielding young men, their faces were as sharp as knives, and they were exceptionally cold.
They knew why they had come to the Zhao Family tonight. They knew that they could only win this battle. If they won, they would have the world in their hands. If they lost, they would lose everything, including their lives!
So as long as Li Mubai wanted to kill them, or gave the order, they would not hesitate to kill all of Li Mubai's enemies in the living room.
This was the only reason they had come tonight!
The moment the twenty young men took out their guns, the atmosphere in the living room became extremely oppressive. It was as if even breathing was difficult. It was unsettling.
Li Mubai's gaze was fixed on Shen Manjun's beautiful face. At this moment, all he needed was a reply from Shen Manjun. As long as she was willing to leave the Zhao Family and disappear from the center of power, Li Mubai did not mind sparing her life.
Otherwise — —
Li Mubai's gaze was cold. From the moment he entered the room, he was prepared to start a massacre!
Shen Manjun did not expect Li Mubai to take out his gun in front of everyone and threaten her life. Her expression became anxious. Her eyes flickered. It was as if she was not prepared to fight with Li Mubai. Or perhaps — from the beginning, she did not have the ability to fight with Li Mubai. Even if she had the support of Xiao Zheng, even if she had the support of the entire Zhao Family.
But what kind of person was she?
She was just a talented student who had studied abroad. Even if she was young and ignorant, she had been in the underworld for a few years. But the biggest change in her in those years was that she had a straightforward and cheerful personality. It was not that she had unlimited combat power.
She, Shen Manjun, was just a woman after all. How could she have the ability to fight with the cunning Li Mubai?
"Little sister." Li Mubai saw Shen Manjun's panic and avoidance. His expression softened. "If you trust second brother, move out of the Zhao Family as soon as possible. It's not safe here. It's not safe at all. "
"Chen Chong is dead. Your third brother is also dead. Second brother does not want old Zhao's family to wither. Even you, the only legitimate descendant, died because of the chaos in the jianghu, "Li Mubai said sincerely. "Even if Second Brother begs you."
"Get out of the Zhao family, get out of this place." Li Mubai vowed. "Second Brother guarantees that as long as you can leave this place, Second Brother will guarantee that you will not have to worry for the rest of your life!"
"Do you dare to say these words to Zhao Qingyun?" Shen Manjun said with a complicated expression. "Do you dare to let him leave the Zhao Family and have nothing to do with the Zhao Family from now on?"
Li Mubai sneered, "Why wouldn't I dare? If he had the ability, why didn't he come out? Little Sister, Second Brother will tell you the truth. Zhao Qingyun is no longer the Zhao Qingyun of the past. The current him is useless, useless, and even cowardly! "
"If you want to rely on him to take charge of the overall situation, I can assure you …" Li Mubai's face turned serious as he said word by word. "The Zhao family will perish!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked and went silent.
…
In the bedroom.
The pungent smell of medicine permeated the entire room. It was even worse than the smell in the hospital. Mister Zhao had been bedridden for more than a month. His face was getting uglier and uglier. His old skin was wrinkled like tree bark. It was unbearable to look at.
But no matter how serious Mister Zhao's injuries were, no matter how dangerous it was, he still had to lie in bed every day. He didn't need to dress, bathe, or think. But Zhao Qingyun, who stayed by Mister Zhao's side, wasn't. He was like the most filial son in the world, taking care of Mister Zhao without caring about his clothes. Wiping his face, wiping his body, and wiping his back. Zhao Qingyun fell asleep on the side of the bed countless times. Not to mention the servants of the Zhao family, even Shen Manjun might not be able to do this.
But Zhao Qingyun did it. He stayed by the bed day and night, carefully taking care of the critically ill Mister Zhao.
At this moment, when the Zhao family was facing the most terrible crisis in its history. Zhao Qingyun still stayed by Mister Zhao's bedside, holding a warm towel in his hand, wiping Mister Zhao's face. His expression was serious and his eyes were focused like a mountain. As if he was taking care of an extremely precious handicraft. It made people speechless.
"Mister Zhao. Li Mubai is bullying your daughter outside. He wants to take away the family business that you've worked so hard to accumulate. " Zhao Qingyun's face was like water as he narrated, as if Mister Zhao could hear him. He spoke meticulously, his voice calm. "After all, little sister is inexperienced and can't stop the sharp Li Mubai. But she found me, hoping that I can help her through this. "
Click.
Zhao Qingyun lit a cigarette, as if he was talking to himself, but also as if he was expressing his feelings to Mister Zhao. He smiled and said, "When I was young, you arranged for me to stay by little sister's side. You asked me to take care of her, to protect her, and I did it. No matter who bullied her, I would make them pay the price. Even if you weren't the number one pearl at that time. Even if I would offend the forces that you might not want to offend. I didn't care. Because you said that she was my little sister. As an older brother, taking care of little sister is natural and right. "
Zhao Qingyun took a drag of the cigarette and said slowly, "Later, little sister went abroad. I could also do things for you openly and fight for the world. This hardship lasted for five years. I became the most powerful general under your command. I also became one of the few leaders in the underground world of Pearl — "
"But just because of a word from you, just because that important official deliberately suppressed you and wanted to unite with your opponents to eliminate you. I didn't say anything and just volunteered to kill that important official. From then on, I was wanted by the Pearl police for several years. I didn't even dare to stay in the country and was forced to flee all over the world. "Zhao Qingyun lit a second cigarette and said with a calm expression. "During that time, I was not only chased by the assassins sent by my opponents, but also by Interpol. I was like a street rat that everyone wanted to kill. I didn't dare to go out during the day, and even at night, I didn't dare to go out easily. I was afraid that I would be recognized, afraid that being caught would affect you. "
Zhao Qingyun gently flicked the cigarette ash, pursed his lips and said, "At that time, I only thought that when the limelight passed, I could come back to reunite with you and return to the Zhao family to serve you. Really. At that time, the only thing that supported me to live was you and little sister waiting for me in Pearl, waiting for me to come home. "
Hiss.
Zhao Qingyun struggled to finish half of the cigarette, the spicy smoke circulated in his lungs, and then he spat it out from his mouth. And his face suddenly became gloomy and bone-piercing: "But one night two years ago. When I was chased by a group of assassins to the end of the road, and unexpectedly learned of a grievous news, I successfully escaped the assassins' pursuit, and my desire to live became stronger and stronger. I couldn't wait to go home, I wanted to see you. I want to ask you something — "
Zhao Qingyun coldly stared at the sleeping Zhao Siye, and without warning asked in a cold voice: "Why do you want to kill me?"
Why do you want to kill me?
I risked my life for you, sacrificed my life for you. For you, I left Pearl, fled all over the world, and lived a miserable life. I only hoped that you could become the ruler of Pearl's underground world. But why — why did you send that group of assassins?
How many times did you kill me?
How much money did you spend to hire assassins?
Why?
How did I threaten you? When did I make you unhappy? Why didn't you help me get through this difficult time, and instead wanted to kill me?
"Why!?"
Bang!
Zhao Qingyun kicked the bed frame, and the entire bed frame suddenly creaked and trembled, letting out a soul-stirring explosion sound.
As for Zhao Qingyun's roar, it was exceptionally intimidating. It was hair-raising.
"Old Zhao! I've f * cking risked my life for you, and all I get in return is your cross-border pursuit? "Zhao Qingyun roared. "I fucking did everything for you, treated you like my own father, and you treat me like this? Do you hate me that much? You can't wait to tear me to pieces!? "
Bang!
Zhao Qingyun fiercely kicked the bed frame again, and actually caused the hard bed frame to explode. The scene was extremely terrifying, and extremely sinister.
"Even if it's a dog, do you have the heart to be so heartless? Even if it's a beast, do you not have the slightest bit of mercy? "Zhao Qingyun gritted his teeth and said. "Do you know? When I found out that you wanted to kill me, that you were the one who chased me all over the world. Do you know how much I hate you? How much I want to chop you into pieces? "
"Every time I fall into a desperate situation, at the end of my rope, I will tell myself that I can't die. The more you want me to die, the more I want to live. Zhao Qingyun said with a sinister expression. "Let's fight!"
"Do you still want me to help her? Do you still want me to protect her? "Zhao Qingyun stared coldly at the sleeping Zhao Siye and said coldly. "Don't worry, I won't let her die in Li Mubai's hands. I also won't let Li Mubai take away your family business. I'll make her watch you die in my hands! I will let her live in pain for the rest of her life! I will return to her ten times, a hundred times what you did to me! "
"Old Zhao! Did you hear that!? "Zhao Qingyun roared.
Of course, Zhao Siye couldn't hear him.
He had been unconscious for a month.
If he could hear, how could the Zhao Family be in such a situation? How could a mere Li Mubai dare to be presumptuous in the Zhao Family?
Dong dong.
Someone suddenly knocked on the door. The sound was calm and rhythmic.
"Come in." Zhao Qingyun regained his cold expression and lit a cigarette in a leisurely manner, soothing his manic blood.
"Boss, the situation is set. It's time for you to appear."
A young man in a suit slowly walked into the room. He was Zhao Qingyun's confidant, and also an expert he met abroad. This time, he brought back a large number of experts from abroad. From the day Zhao Siye was assassinated, this group of experts who only listened to Zhao Qingyun entered the Zhao Family. They became Zhao Qingyun's most important chess piece.
"En." Zhao Qingyun slowly turned around, his eyes cold. "Let's go. It's time. "
