Chapter 245: Chapter 245: Quite Courageous
After hearing such words, Liu Zheng opened his mouth, but in the end, he really didn’t know what to say.
What exactly did he mean by that?
What’s all this about?
Liu Zheng truly was somewhat puzzled.
Why did he suddenly start showing so much respect out of the blue?
Why would he act this way?
At this moment, Liu Zheng’s heart was also filled with too many doubts.
Moreover, the people nearby seemed to be constantly begging for mercy.
"I really know I was wrong, please let me off, Brother Chen. I’ll never do something like this again."
"Yes, we didn’t know before that he was such an incredible person; we truly won’t do it again in the future."
"Ow! It hurts so much, please, I beg you to let me go!"
...
They were there, crying out non-stop.
And Liu Zheng also didn’t know what to say to the person in front of him.
For some reason, he always felt that Brother Chen seemed to be watching him all the time.
And it seemed as though he was looking through him at someone else.
In his eyes, there seemed to be a hint of nostalgia.
After a good while, he spoke again.
"So similar, really so similar!"
When he said this, Liu Zheng’s heart naturally filled with even more confusion, not understanding what he meant.
But no matter what, he did save his life; after all, he really should express his gratitude properly.
So very soon, Liu Zheng also respectfully started to speak.
"I’m truly very thankful that you saved my life."
But who would have known, Brother Chen simply lifted his hand and gently waved it.
"It’s nothing, this is what I should do."
"However, may I be so bold as to ask who you are? Why did you choose to save me, and if I wanted to repay you, what should I do?"
Unexpectedly, upon hearing these words, the smile on Brother Chen’s face grew even more intense.
He then quickly said.
"You’ll find out later on; now you should just go back and leave this matter for me to handle."
Liu Zheng had initially wanted to keep questioning.
But seeing him like that, it seemed unlikely that he would easily reveal anything.
So, considering this, it was better to let it be.
Therefore, in the end, he could only express his gratitude once more.
"I’m truly very thankful to you, if there’s a chance in the future, I’ll definitely repay you properly."
"There will definitely be a chance."
Brother Chen left him with just that remark.
And quickly urged Liu Zheng to leave.
"Alright, you better go now."
Upon hearing this, Liu Zheng naturally couldn’t delay any longer in that place.
It was mainly because he didn’t have any idea who the person before him was or what motives those people might have.
He didn’t know them at all; their inexplicable help left him puzzled.
So it was better to leave first.
To avoid dealing with any complications later, if they all came over and attacked him together, that would be disastrous.
It was not easy to find such an alternative.
No matter what, he was determined to cherish it and would not stay here any longer than necessary.
So, he hurriedly left.
After he left, Brother Chen kept looking in his direction and couldn’t help but smile.
He had always heard about the man from the staff, but he had never seen his real face.
Unexpectedly, after having a late-night meal with his brothers tonight, he encountered him by a twist of fate.
Perhaps, it was all arranged by the heavens.
True, in the past, he had always worked under him.
But no matter what, he hoped that Liu Jiaxin could walk out of this in good spirits, after all, Liu Jiaxin was once his boss.
It had been such a long time, and he hoped that Liu Jiaxin could be happy.
Now that this man had appeared in front of Liu Jiaxin, he was very pleased.
It wasn’t until those people were beaten and finally spoke up.
Brother Chen then said.
"Alright, that’s enough."
Hearing this, they finally stopped their assault.
And those few were nearly on the verge of losing consciousness.
"Let’s go, no need to look at them anymore."
After that, Brother Chen immediately left the place with his people.
Leaving those individuals behind, continuously yelling at the spot.
They never imagined that they were just working for pay, but in the end, they encountered Brother Chen and even got beaten up—it was truly pitiful.
If they’d known it would end this way, they certainly wouldn’t have taken up such a job.
But regretting it now was of little use.
This was indeed very frustrating for them, although they didn’t know what to do.
After a long while, they finally managed to carefully get up from the ground and began to check their injuries.
But on closer inspection, they realized that Huang Haoxiang had disappeared without a trace at some unknown point.
"This is ridiculous, if we had known it would come to this, we should never have taken this job in the first place."
"Yeah, don’t remind me, I’m filled with regret. I never expected to encounter Brother Chen, and naturally, the person we were beating was Brother Chen’s friend. No, it seemed like he just said that this guy might become my boss in the future—could it be Jia Xin’s partner?"
"My goodness, it seems that’s the only possibility. I can’t believe Jia Xin hasn’t been involved with anyone for so many years, and now she’s suddenly found someone new; it looks like this Liu Zheng is not simple at all."
"Right, the last time that guy surnamed Huang talked to me about it, he said he was no ordinary person, but I never imagined that he had such a powerful identity behind him."
"Enough talk, that Huang guy disappeared who knows when, and he wasn’t even around when we were getting beaten up."
"It seems even if we wanted him to pay for our medical bills or other expenses, it’s unlikely he would."
"Oh my God, I really am filled with regret. In the future, if I take on any jobs, I need to be cautious and do some investigation, to avoid such problems."
...
At this moment, they were moving in another direction, talking and suffering.
They had never thought that things would turn out like this.
And indeed, they felt extremely pained, both mentally and physically.
The way those guys had attacked was merciless, showing no kindness whatsoever.
This served as a lesson for them.
No matter what, they could not possibly take on such jobs so carelessly in the future.
If they continued like this, things could become even more terrifying.
