Looking out the car window at the passing scenery, Jiang Yanxi desperately pounded on the glass, but to no avail.
"Qin Hui, you're looking for death!"
Jiang Yanxi exclaimed in anger. She hadn't expected Zhang Ke to resort to such tactics; this had crossed the line of societal decency.
At this moment, Jiang Yanxi felt utterly powerless. No matter how hard she tried, when faced with such danger, she could only stand by helplessly.
After all, Jiang Yanxi was just a woman, an unarmed woman. When confronted by these men, she could only submit.
"Why all the nonsense? Get to it. If you can get past me, you can do whatever you want."
Qin Hui twisted his neck, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Qin Hui didn't usually seek trouble, but Zhang Ke's background this time was considerable, forcing Qin Hui to take it seriously.
"Go on, remember, disable his limbs. Don't kill him."
Zhang Ke smiled faintly, lit a cigar, and waited for the final outcome.
At his command, several bodyguards revealed their daggers and charged at Qin Hui.
However, the two bodyguards behind Zhang Ke remained motionless.
Gazing at the gleaming daggers, Qin Hui's lips curved into a slight smile as he rapidly flicked out silver needles from his hand.
*Swish, swish, swish!*
A whistling sound cut through the air, and the bodyguards who had charged forward collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
"Impressive, no wonder you dared to be so arrogant. But sadly, these are just gilded paperweights."
Zhang Ke waved his hand again. The two bodyguards behind him, their expressions sharp and menacing, strode towards Qin Hui.
Sensing the hostility emanating from them, Qin Hui knew they were formidable opponents, men whose hands had likely been stained with the blood of more than a dozen people.
"Kid, take this punch."
The leading bodyguard threw a powerful punch, astonishing in its force.
"Then let's see whose fist is harder!"
Qin Hui met the punch with one of his own. Since someone was willing to spar with him, Qin Hui was naturally eager to engage.
*Thump!*
With a dull thud, the bodyguard was sent flying backward, crashing hard against the wall.
This scene shocked everyone. No one had expected Qin Hui to possess such immense punching power.
"Take this, with your life!"
The other bodyguard, after recovering from his shock, unleashed a whipping kick. These were men who lived on the edge, their reflexes incredibly swift.
Qin Hui raised his hand and directly blocked the kick, retreating two steps.
But the moment his feet stopped, Qin Hui moved like a leopard, lunging forward with immense speed, throwing a fierce punch at the bodyguard.
This rapid reaction caught the bodyguard off guard. But before he could instinctively defend himself, Qin Hui's fist had already landed on his face.
*Bang!*
Another dull impact, and the bodyguard was sent flying backward once more.
In less than half a minute, Qin Hui had decisively ended the fight, swift and clean.
Witnessing this, Jiang Yanxi's full, sexy lips parted slightly.
She knew Qin Hui possessed remarkable medical skills but hadn't realized his combat prowess was so exceptional. He was far more skilled than the special forces soldiers she'd seen on television.
*Clap, clap, clap.*
"Not bad, not bad. I underestimated you."
Zhang Ke stood to the side, clapping his hands, seemingly unfazed by Qin Hui's impressive display.
"It's a pity this world isn't as simple as you imagine. This world is very realistic. Sometimes, fists can't prove everything."
"Even if your speed is unmatched and your punches are powerful, they are nothing before me."
As he spoke, Zhang Ke pulled a silver Desert Eagle from behind him.
The cold, silver gleam was saturated with the scent of gunpowder.
The muzzle was pointed directly at Qin Hui's head.
In Zhang Ke's view, modern firearms were the ultimate power. There was nothing that couldn't be resolved with a single shot.
No matter how great your influence, how much wealth you possessed, or how triumphant you felt, it all came down to one shot.
*Bang!*
At that moment, the car door was flung open by Jiang Yanxi.
"Zhang Ke, are you insane? Do you know the consequences of this?"
Jiang Yanxi directly stepped in front of Qin Hui, knowing Zhang Ke wouldn't shoot her.
Qin Hui blinked in surprise, taken aback by Jiang Yanxi's action.
"Insane?"
"Heh, I'm not insane. With the Zhang family's status in Jiangnan Province, killing a few people is nothing."
"Besides, Qin Hui's life is like an ant's to me. Would you feel guilty about stepping on an ant?"
Zhang Ke let out a sinister smile. He relished these situations where he held complete control.
"You just want the Jiang Corporation, right? Fine, I'll give it to you. Just let us go."
Jiang Yanxi spoke directly, knowing that all she possessed was meaningless against Zhang Ke's handgun.
If she were dead, nothing would remain.
Jiang Yanxi had always grown up under the sun. Even the business disputes she encountered occurred in the sun's shadow. She had never experienced such darkness.
While this violent aesthetic used to solve problems might transgress societal boundaries, it was undeniably effective at times.
Some things, though shunned by people, exist for a reason. You can't expect the day to be beautiful without acknowledging the darkness of the night.
"Hahahaha, are you begging me?"
"If only you had said this a day earlier, but it's too late now. Qin Hui must die today."
"Not only will the Jiang Corporation be mine, but you will be mine too. When I tire of you, I'll sell you to the Sahara; there are plenty of people who will want you there."
Zhang Ke laughed sinisterly, his shadow, cast in the dim light, growing larger.
Hearing this, Qin Hui paused. It seemed Zhang Ke's connections were not simple, possessing such authority. He supposed his trip to Jiangnan Province was proving somewhat fruitful.
"Zhang Ke!"
Jiang Yanxi's face paled. She hadn't realized Zhang Ke's true nature ran so deep, and it filled her with fear.
"Alright, it's all over. Qin Hui, go meet the King of Hell."
Zhang Ke aimed directly at Qin Hui's head and pulled the trigger.
In just a few seconds, a beautiful scene of bloodshed would unfold before his eyes. Zhang Ke was filled with excitement at this moment.
*Bang!*
Qin Hui's figure flickered, and the bullet embedded itself in a crack in the wall.
"What's going on?"
Zhang Ke was stunned. Qin Hui had vanished from his sight as if he were a phantom.
Before Zhang Ke could realize something was amiss, a massive fist slammed into his back.
*Crack!*
A dull thud was followed by the sound of bone snapping!
"Ah!"
Zhang Ke let out a scream and was sent flying backward, crashing violently against the wall before losing consciousness.
Qin Hui slowly rose, dusting off his hands.
"Alas, I thought you'd have something more profound to say, but it seems you're just like the rest."
Qin Hui twisted his neck, a look of disdain on his face.
Looking at the unconscious Zhang Ke and the others, Jiang Yanxi felt a surge of fear. She had never experienced anything like this before.
"Qin Hui, what... what do we do now?"
Jiang Yanxi asked, her voice trembling with panic.
Qin Hui had initially intended to eliminate these men, but after some thought, he decided against it. Unless absolutely necessary, Qin Hui did not wish to cross societal boundaries; after all, he was a man of principle.
"Call someone to handle the scene. If you don't know who to call, then find your father."
Qin Hui walked over to Jiang Yanxi and placed a comforting hand on her shoulder.
