Chapter 725: Trap
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Everyone had been worried. What if Luo Feng couldn’t be captured? If Liu Ying got angry, who among them could bear his wrath?
Now that Luo Feng had been captured, the danger to them had disappeared. All they had to do next was follow Liu Ying’s lead in attacking and disparaging Luo Feng.
“What a relief!” one exclaimed. “Finally, that arrogant fellow has been caught!
Such a boastful man should pay the price!”
“Yes, boss,” another chimed in, “Now that he’s been captured, shouldn’t we celebrate? Let’s torture him a bit and show him the consequences of crossing you!”
Everyone was shouting and cheering. However, Liu Ying suddenly shot them a fierce glance.
“Do you think it’s because of you that he was captured?” he asked coldly.
“Have you all forgotten what that man did to you? Or do you think that just because he’s captured, it will cover up your incompetence?”
Liu Ying’s voice grew angrier with every word. The others were so frightened that they dared not speak. Finally, Liu Ying turned to his butler.
“Since he’s captured, bring him here. I want to see just how tough he is now.” The butler, trembling, quickly made a call to have Luo Feng brought over.
Soon, Luo Feng was brought before Liu Ying, tightly bound. The moment Liu Ying saw him, his face lit up with joy.
Finally, after all this time, the man was in his grasp. How could he not take this opportunity to vent his anger?
“Young man,” Liu Ying scoffed loudly, “I never expected you to be caught so easily. I used to think you were quite capable.”
Luo Feng stood silently, just observing Liu Ying, as if waiting to hear what more arrogant words the man would spout.
Liu Ying was irritated by Luo Feng’s demeanor. From his perspective, Luo Feng’s life was now in his hands. How dare he show such an attitude?
“You may be confident,” Liu Ying sneered, “but now that you’re in my grasp, I won’t let you go.”
“Oh, and that young girl you were with last time? It seems you’re quite fond of her. Don’t worry, once I’m done with you, I’ll have her captured too.”
“I’m curious to taste just how delightful she is,” he said with a malicious glint in his eyes.
Luo Feng hadn’t intended to do anything to Liu Ying at first. He was primarily interested in the man’s collection, and if Liu Ying was willing to hand it over, Luo Feng might have spared him.
But now, Liu Ying was clearly seeking his own doom. Luo Feng would not let him go.
“Don’t worry,” Liu Ying continued, “I’ll make sure you watch as I deal with her.
Feel free to scream helplessly and regret your decisions.”
With that, Liu Ying turned to his thugs, clearly pleased with himself. “You guys did well. I’ve already discussed the payment with your leader, but I’m very satisfied with your performance. So, in addition to the agreed amount, I’ll give you a bonus.”
“Go to my butler and collect it. Each of you gets a hundred thousand!”
A hundred thousand was no small sum. For these low-level gangsters, it was a fortune. Yet, none of them moved or spoke, standing silently beside Luo Feng.
Liu Ying was puzzled by their inaction. He thought perhaps it was against their gang’s rules to accept money. So, he assured them, “Don’t worry. I’m well-acquainted with your leader. He won’t mind if you take money from me.”
But even after his reassurance, none of the thugs moved. Liu Ying felt a growing sense of unease.
Seeing his concern, Luo Feng finally broke his silence. “Seems you’ve noticed something amiss. Isn’t it a bit late, though?”
“These men might be professional gangsters, but the gap in skill between them and the ones you’ve hired isn’t that vast.”
“You brought over twenty men, and none of them could match me. Do you really think you can take me down with just these few?”
As Luo Feng finished speaking, the ropes binding him fell away. He casually approached Liu Ying.
“Now, can you guess what I’m going to do next?”
