Chapter 148: Chapter 141 - I’m Not Just Going to Slap You Once, but Twice (Continue to Ask for Monthly Tickets!)
At this moment, Sun Chuanxuan finally snapped out of his shock. Listening to Xiao Lin’s words, he had a newfound admiration for Xiao Lin. Regardless of whether Xiao Lin had the strength, just his dedication to Xia Xue showed Sun Chuanxuan that Xia Xue made the right choice.
"You must be Xia Xue’s boyfriend, Xiao Lin? I’m Sun Chuanxuan, the Deputy Director of Jiangling Police Station!" Sun Chuanxuan saw Xiao Lin turn around and hurriedly greeted him. Such a strong man must be befriended.
Xiao Lin’s expression remained indifferent, but upon hearing Sun Chuanxuan introduce himself, he knew he was Xia Xue’s ’Uncle Sun’. He forced a slight smile and nodded, "Let’s settle things here first!"
After saying this, he stepped forward two large strides and scanned the crowd coldly, "Who is Chen Yufeng? Come out!"
Chen Yufeng was furious. In Jiangling, only she could be arrogant, not others. Hearing what Xiao Lin said, she barked roughly, "Bitch, found yourself a good man, huh? But don’t forget, this is Jiangling. If you’re a dragon, you better coil up; if you’re a tiger, you better lie down!" Then she yelled at the thugs and those criminal police officers, "What are you waiting for? Take him down, I’ll take all responsibility!"
Chen Yufeng was confident that even if a few people died on the scene, her family’s power would cover it up without a trace, not to mention most of them there were her people.
She had always been the one stepping on others, never before had she been insulted by name. At this moment, Chen Yufeng wished she could stomp on Xiao Lin, because what if he was handsome? The ducks she raised were even more handsome.
Upon hearing Chen Yufeng shout, Xiao Lin immediately turned his gaze toward her. There stood a boastful mid-aged woman in her forties, commanding thugs and criminal police to surround him.
Xiao Lin realized this was the woman Xia Xue spoke about as Chen Yufeng. Without a word, he sprang off the ground, soaring toward Chen Yufeng like a large bird, leaving the people in the courtyard stunned, forgetting to react.
Everyone saw a blur as a phantom landed beside Chen Yufeng; she hadn’t even noticed Xiao Lin was approaching, busy directing thugs and criminal police, and couldn’t imagine someone closing in from ten meters away amidst at least twenty surrounding thugs and officers.
"You’re Chen Yufeng, right?" Xiao Lin’s icy voice startled Chen Yufeng back to reality. She turned around, seeing Xiao Lin suddenly beside her, eyes wide with disbelief.
"Bullying my woman, you ought to get hit!" Xiao Lin swung his big hand, his right palm hitting hard against Chen Yufeng’s face with a crisp and resounding "pa", echoing throughout the courtyard.
"Ah..." Two seconds later, Chen Yufeng reacted, her face stinging from Xiao Lin’s slap, almost bringing tears to her eyes. She screamed, "You dare hit me? You dare hit me? I’ll make sure you don’t leave Jiangling today, or I won’t be called Chen!" Chen Yufeng madly rushed toward Xiao Lin.
Chen Yufeng had never suffered such humiliation; being so arrogant, she couldn’t tolerate things going against her, usually resorting to beatings and curses.
"I won’t just hit you once; I’ll hit you a second time!" Xiao Lin looked at Chen Yufeng charging madly and didn’t allow her close, swiftly smacking her with his left palm.
This time, Xiao Lin applied force. Chen Yufeng couldn’t withstand it, toppling to the side, ten red fingerprints blazing across her face.
Chen Yufeng, after being slapped twice by Xiao Lin, looked disheveled, with blood at the corner of her mouth, glaring venomously at Xiao Lin, terrifying enough to fit into a horror film.
"Kill him, kill him, what are you standing there for, shoot, I’ll take responsibility!" Chen Yufeng was driven mad by these two slaps, disregarding any consequences from committing murder right now.
However, Xiao Lin took these words harshly, further fueling his murderous intent. Fortunately, Xiao Lin hadn’t lost his mind; although furious, he managed to suppress it. Just as he prepared to further confront Chen Yufeng, those criminal police acted upon her orders.
Before they came, they knew Sun Chuanxuan had fired warning shots at the accident scene. The remaining thirteen officers were armed, and as they approached, each was equipped with a gun. The loyal captains of team one and two under Zhang Family hesitated momentarily before pointing their guns at Xiao Lin following Chen Yufeng’s ruthless order.
"Stop!" Huang Tian, the captain of Jiangling Police Station’s first squad, drew his gun at Xiao Lin, followed by other officers who also brandished their arms—around thirty guns aimed at Xiao Lin.
At this point, seeing the dire situation, Sun Chuanxuan also drew his gun, trying to approach Xiao Lin.
The atmosphere onsite instantly grew tense. These criminal police were originally meant to intimidate Sun Chuanxuan, not expecting an unstoppable Xiao Lin to intervene, who wasn’t just striking anyone but Chen Yufeng.
"Huang Tian, what are you trying to do?" Sun Chuanxuan shouted loudly, wanting to draw the attention of the criminal police squad.
Xiao Lin, however, was calm and composed. Despite being surrounded by numerous criminal police officers, it also depended on who would fire. Especially at such close range, Xiao Lin was confident in his skills, believing he could escape before they fired.
"Are you sure you want to shoot?" Xiao Lin looked coldly at Huang Tian. Although he had Dragon Soul credentials, to these grassroots criminal police officers, that was too distant. Probably no one would believe it was true.
"Looks like I’ll need a universally recognized agency badge in the future!" Xiao Lin remained unworried, already pondering whether he should get National Security credentials, Central Security Bureau evidence, or documents from the military’s four major departments.
"Surrender, or we will shoot you for endangering public security!" Huang Tian said calmly, but his inner composure was far less stable. If the shot was fired, subsequent matters would certainly be troublesome. However, with the Zhang Family backing him up, it shouldn’t be a big issue, right? Huang Tian consoled himself internally.
Xia Xue looked nervously at Xiao Lin. Thirty-plus pistols were pointed at Xiao Lin. If one or two accidentally discharged and hit Xiao Lin, it would be disastrous. But looking at Xiao Lin’s carefree demeanor, her nervousness lessened.
Sun Chuanxuan had already stepped down one step, and at this moment, the second squad captain Tian Zhen suddenly turned around, followed by other squad members pointing at Sun Chuanxuan.
"Who gave you the authority?" Sun Chuanxuan furiously roared, feeling awful being pointed at by his own criminal police officers.
"Director Zhang just called!" Tian Zhen said blandly, "Hope Director Sun cooperates!"
The standoff between both sides continued.
Seeing the criminal police officers on her side pulling out their guns, Chen Yufeng instantly became arrogant, standing five or six meters away from Xiao Lin, shouting frantically, "Come on, if you dare, slap my face again!"
"Truly courting death!" Xiao Lin sighed to himself. Some people, even when given a chance to live longer, insist on rushing towards death. At this moment, Xiao Lin harbored killing intent not only towards Chen Yufeng but also had a very poor impression of the Jiangling’s Zhang Family.
At this moment, Xiao Lin contemplated killing the Zhang Family.
Just then, Liang Feng, who had just recovered from her earlier motion sickness, was shocked to see the scene. Although Liang Feng was used to fights and had seen many people wielding guns, encountering four or fifty pistols at once was unprecedented.
"Put your hands on your head, squat down, or don’t blame us for shooting blindly!" Huang Tian felt relieved seeing Xiao Lin standing motionless. The prowess Xiao Lin displayed earlier was too formidable, making Huang Tian feel unsure about shooting at him, especially since they were surrounded circularly. A misfire hitting their own could lead to big trouble.
Suddenly, dense siren sounds came from afar, hurriedly reaching from the upper road junction.
Almost everyone was thinking, at this moment, having the ability to mobilize Jiangling’s police force means almost everyone is here. Plus, some agreement has been reached on the committee’s side. Chen Yufeng stirred up another issue, and it’s likely that the committee hasn’t even received the news yet. So why are there so many sirens now?
These were all old hands. From hearing the sirens, there were no less than fifteen vehicles. Even if each vehicle carried only four men, there would be around sixty.
At this moment, whether it was Sun Chuanxuan or Chen Yufeng’s criminal police officers, they were all pondering where the additional police force could be from. No one dared to act rashly, all waited quietly.
"What are you all standing around for? Hurry up and take them down!" Chen Yufeng shouted sharply, considering being slapped publicly by Xiao Lin as a great shame.
Yet, nobody responded to Chen Yufeng’s call. Whether it was Huang Tian, Tian Zhen, or other criminal police team members, they were all very aware that the sirens were directed at them, so no one dared to move recklessly.
Meanwhile, Xiao Lin casually glanced around and said to Chen Yufeng with a smile, "They’re not stupid; they won’t join your insanity. Just wait to spend the rest of your life eating ’emperor’s grain’!" Of course, Xiao Lin meant jail food by ’emperor’s grain.’
Three minutes passed, exactly three minutes, looking out from the courtyard entrance. The first police car had already appeared in everyone’s view, quickly rushing to the courtyard, encircling those inside. A valiant beauty got out of the first police car’s deputy driver’s seat, and Xiao Lin immediately recognized her—it was Wu Shuang, with whom he had had a minor conflict. (To be continued.
