It was human nature to be greedy for life and afraid of death. No one could face death without fear. Of course, some people's death was as heavy as Mount Tai, while some people's death was as light as a feather.
It was normal to be afraid.
But some people would at least show a calm and unperturbed appearance in the face of death, while others would be scared shitless in the face of death.
Ye Wentao didn't want to die. He once firmly believed that good people didn't live long, while scourges would last for thousands of years. Therefore, the evil deeds he had done in the past decades were too numerous to be listed. He had killed people, and he had killed more than one person. But when he saw those people begging for mercy and howling in pain, he felt some pity for them at first, but later on, he became numb to it. However, at this time, the roles had changed. He was now a fish on the chopping block. Only then did he suddenly realize how fearful and desperate those people he had harmed were.
Regret!
It was like a venomous snake biting his heart. His sudden repentance made the despair in his heart have some other meaning.
Tan Xiu looked at Ye Wentao indifferently and lightly said, "Aren't you afraid that your men will be bitterly disappointed by your words? Just look at their faces. Don't they have the expression of a fox grieving for the death of a rabbit? "
Ye Wentao turned his head blankly. When he saw his men lying on the ground, each and every one of them looked at him with disbelief, a wave of regret immediately assaulted him.
He realized that …
His words of begging for mercy had chilled the hearts of his men.
"I …"
Ye Wentao opened his mouth but found that he didn't know what to say.
"Just wait and see!" Tan Xiu sneered. "Whether you can live a little longer or a little shorter depends on the speed of your big brother's arrival."
After saying that …
He lit a cigarette and walked a few steps to the side. His body leaned against a big tree and no longer spoke.
Ye Wentao silently closed his eyes. Countless thoughts were churning in his mind. No one knew what he was thinking. Even his brothers who had followed him for many years didn't know what he was thinking. Ten minutes later, when Ye Wentao's eyes suddenly opened, he walked a few steps toward Tan Xiu.
"Tan Xiu, you don't need to wait for my big brother. You can kill me now."
Tan Xiu raised his head in surprise and his gaze landed on Ye Wentao. To his surprise, he discovered that the murderous aura that was faintly present on Ye Wentao's body had disappeared without a trace. Although there was still some fear in his eyes, there was more determination in them.
What was going on?
Tan Xiu frowned slightly. He looked at Ye Wentao and asked, "Why did you change your mind?"
Ye Wentao said, "My current situation is very similar to those who were persecuted by me in the past. I couldn't understand it in the past, but now I understand. This fear and despair, it's really … Forget it. If you want to kill me, then do it! But before I die, I have a request that I hope you can agree to. "
"Do you think you're qualified to negotiate with me?" Tan Xiu sneered.
Ye Wentao shook his head and said, "I'm not negotiating with you. I'm asking, or pleading."
Tan Xiu said, "Tell me about it."
Ye Wentao's eyes fell on his men and slowly said, "I used to be a bad guy who committed all kinds of crimes. I bullied the weak and feared the strong and persecuted a lot of people. Even if I'm killed by you today, it's my just deserts. Retribution has fallen on me. People like me have a saying that sooner or later you'll have to pay for what you did. However, although these men of mine are not good people, most of them listen to my orders. I'm the one who instructed them to do the evil deeds. Therefore, since they have been punished, I hope you can spare them and let them go. I guarantee that they will never speak about what happened today. "
Tan Xiu raised his brows and sneered, "Are you joking with me?"
"No, I'm serious." Ye Wentao shook his head.
In an instant.
The eyes of Ye Wentao's men changed again as they looked at him. There was a bit of disbelief in their eyes. Never did they expect that Ye Wentao could say such words and make such a decision.
It must be noted that Ye Wentao was still begging for mercy due to fear a dozen minutes ago. He even expressed his selfish side vividly and vividly. But how come he seemed to have changed into a different person in just a few minutes? How could he make such a decision?
Tan Xiu clapped his hands and said with a smile, "It seems you've been enlightened. There's a Buddhist saying that one can become a Buddha after laying down the butcher's knife. I think you can become a Buddhist monk if you don't die today. However, it's impossible for me to kill you now. Your big brother is the Big Boss of the Jindi Group and also your big backer. He should have done a lot of evil deeds all these years, right? So I need to clean him up and make him pay the price. "
"NO!"
Ye Wentao exclaimed, "My big brother has nothing to do with my business, Tan Xiu. Although he's my big brother and I can achieve what I have today thanks to his help, he rarely interferes with me when it comes to committing crimes. I know you're very powerful, and I also know that my big brother is not a good person. But I hope you won't have a conflict with him. "
"Now you know how powerful I am?" Tan Xiu sneered.
Ye Wentao nodded heavily and said word by word, "I know you're very powerful. You're even more powerful than those martial arts experts I've heard. Even the best special forces in our country can't do what you did. Although I don't know who you are and how strong your background is, I hope we can put an end to this matter. I'm right here, and you can kill me if you want. "
Tan Xiu was silent for half a minute. He had been watching Ye Wentao's expression and found that his expression was very calm. Even his heartbeat was normal, and it didn't seem like he was saying hypocritical words at all.
"Wait!"
Tan Xiu finally made a decision.
"What are you waiting for, Tan Xiu?" Asked Ye Wentao aloud. I'm me, and my big brother is my big brother. He shouldn't have offended you, right? "
"He indeed didn't offend me, but I want to know what kind of person he is." Tan Xiu said lightly. "If he's like you, I don't mind killing him. It's like getting rid of an evil for the people!"
"You …"
Ye Wentao was furious. He looked at his subordinate who was holding a mobile phone and said in a deep voice, "Call my big brother's number. I want to talk to him."
"If you don't want all your men to be slaughtered by me, it's best not to make this call," Tan Xiu said without being salty nor light.
Ye Wentao was stunned, whereas his subordinate shrunk his neck and his fingers that were about to press the button stiffened. He was at a loss as he looked at Ye Wentao and Tan Xiu with a face full of fear.
Time fleeted by.
As Chi Nan arrived with six experts of the Everlasting Feast Hall, Tan Xiu secretly shook his head. Only now did he realize that the Everlasting Feast Hall was actually not that far from here. It was only a 20-minute drive at most.
"Boss!"
"Boss!"
Chi Nan respectfully came to Tan Xiu's front and called out. The six big men also had a respectful expression on their faces as they lined up and respectfully called out.
Ye Wentao was dumbfounded. Never once did he expect that Tan Xiu, who was only a freshman at Shanghai University, actually had subordinates. Furthermore, he had a keen eyesight. Judging from the steady footsteps of the six big men and their sturdy physiques, he knew that they were definitely not ordinary people. Perhaps, each and every one of them had real skills.
Tan Xiu nodded and said, "Let's wait for a while. There will be more people coming. Wait for me to deal with them. How many corpses will be left here in the end? You deal with them! "
"There's only one way to solve this thoroughly, Boss," said Chi Nan.
"You mean …" Tan Xiu hesitated.
"Kill all the enemies here. I'll transfer a group of people here to transport their corpses out of Shanghai overnight, then rent a boat to the international waters and throw them to the sea to feed the fishes," said Chi Nan coldly.
Hiss …
Ye Wentao and his dozens of men couldn't help but gasp cold air. Their eyes were full of disbelief. They couldn't figure out how the beautiful Chi Nan could have such a vicious heart. There were dozens of people here! How ruthless would it be to kill all of them? They thought that Tan Xiu was ruthless and merciless enough. But it turned out that his men were even more ruthless!
Tan Xiu shook his head and said, "Killing all of them is indeed the best way to destroy the corpses and erase the traces. But killing too much will be bad for your future. Just wait and see! We'll wait until the people we're waiting for arrive. If they perform well, we'll deal with them easily. But if they're arrogant, we'll kill some of their leaders and cripple the rest. Besides, I believe that those who can survive today won't dare to reveal half a word about what happened here. "
"How can you be so sure, Boss?" asked Chi Nan in surprise.
"I believe that these people all have families." Tan Xiu sneered. "If they dare to publicize this matter, then they must be prepared for their families to be ruined. Do you think that they will be hunted down and have their families destroyed just because they spoke too fast? "
Chi Nan thought for a while and nodded, "You're right, Boss. I'll send people to investigate the families of everyone here. If anyone dares to bring trouble to us, I'll have a way to find and kill them even if they flee abroad with their families. "
"I told you that I'll leave the aftermath to you," said Tan Xiu.
"Understood!"
Chi Nan nodded.
Their conversation didn't avoid Ye Wentao and his men, so the dozens of people who heard it felt a chill on their necks.
Now!
They still couldn't figure out Tan Xiu's true identity, and they were even more afraid of Chi Nan's ruthlessness. Hence, they made up their minds that they must not speak about what happened today even if someone put a knife on their necks.
Ten minutes later.
Ye Wenhe quickly rushed into the New Dream Renovation Company along with dozens of big men in black suits and came to the backyard. Ye Wenhe's complexion greatly changed when he saw the scene in the courtyard.
[I'm really sorry. I stayed up all night until 5 AM last night. I thought I could get up at 8 AM to update this chapter, but I ended up sleeping until now. I'll give you a chapter first. There will be two more later!]
