291: Chapter 290: Remember My Name is Tangyu 291: Chapter 290: Remember My Name is Tangyu Cai Long’s villa wasn’t just luxurious, it was majestic, akin to stepping into an Imperial Palace, with an extremely spacious living room.
The array of decorations was dazzling, and the interior was truly more shocking than the exterior.
This Cai Long truly knew how to enjoy life.
Such a mansion was probably hard to find even in Donglin City.
Just the cost alone would certainly exceed a hundred million.
Tangyu began wandering around the living room, pretending to observe and examine seriously.
At times, he furrowed his brows, lost in thought.
Cai Long silently followed behind Tangyu, not interrupting him.
Song Qingyu and Liu Shanshan were being entertained by a maid, sipping tea and nibbling on fruits and pastries.
Cai Long’s two personal bodyguards stood in the living room, exuding an air of formidable authority that seemed to discourage any form of violation.
“The living room is fine, no problems here.
I suspect the issue might lie in the bedroom,” Tangyu said.
“Oh, then please, Manager Tang, go take a look at the bedroom,” Cai Long said.
“By the way, President Cai, is your wife at home?” Tangyu asked.
Cai Long looked at the maid attending to Song Qingyu and the others, and the maid immediately replied, “Madam went out this morning and should be back soon.”
“She’s out, is there something you needed, Mr.
Tang?” Cai Long asked.
“Oh, it’s nothing much.
If your wife were here, I would have checked her for the same symptoms as you for reference.
Well then, let’s go have a look in the bedroom,” Tangyu said.
“Sure, please follow me, Manager Tang,” Cai Long nodded, not overthinking it and gestured for Tangyu to follow.
One of his personal bodyguards started to follow, but Tangyu glanced at him and frowned slightly.
Cai Long understood that Tangyu did not want the bodyguard to follow and gave the man a look, signaling him to stay put.
Tangyu followed Cai Long to the second-floor bedroom quickly.
The bedroom was incredibly spacious, easily covering more than a hundred square meters.
Such a bedroom was the epitome of luxury.
As soon as Tangyu entered the bedroom, he scanned the area to ensure there was no surveillance equipment, and then he relaxed.
A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth as he stared at Cai Long.
Startled by Tangyu’s change in demeanor, Cai Long also stiffened.
His brows knitted tightly, and in an instant, a formidable aura emanated from him.
His alertness was indeed very strong.
“Hmph!” With a cold snort, Tangyu’s fingers quickly jabbed toward Cai Long’s body.
Cai Long’s expression darkened immediately, sensing danger, but he didn’t have a chance to retreat.
His body became immobilized.
Tangyu grabbed Cai Long’s neck, instantly turning his face red as he struggled to breathe.
With furious eyes, Cai Long glared at Tangyu, filled with rage, finally understanding he had been deceived.
It was a perfect trap, and he had fallen right into it.
However, Cai Long was a man who had weathered many storms.
After a brief moment of anger, he quickly regained his composure, his eyes glinting sharply.
Only then did Tangyu release Cai Long.
The soundproofing in this room was so effective that someone standing right outside the door wouldn’t hear a thing.
Moreover, if Cai Long tried anything, Tangyu would make sure to silence him immediately.
“You indeed have tactics, young man.
You are the first to have ever deceived me, Cai Long.
You’re certainly not from Lin Group, are you a cop?” Cai Long said, his face grim.
Tangyu replied, “You are mistaken, I do indeed have connections with Lin Group, and I am not a cop.
Moreover, I have never changed my name or identity; my name is Tangyu.
Remember that, Tangyu.” Being Lin Guotai’s future son-in-law surely means that he could be considered part of Lin Group.
Besides, he was now working for a subsidiary of Lin Group, so that also counted.
Cai Long’s brows furrowed deeply, his eyes flashing with a complicated expression, “If what you say about your identity is correct, what are your intentions?
What have you done to me, why can’t I move at all?” Cai Long knew very well that the other party had no need to lie at this point.
As long as he wasn’t dealing with a cop, things would be much easier.
“You don’t need to know what I have done to you, and I won’t tell you.
I am here for just one reason: if you agree to cooperate and return the person to me unharmed, I assure you that I won’t harm you,” Tangyu said, his tone dropping colder, implying that if Cai Long didn’t cooperate, he would suffer today.
“What person?
Why would I have anyone you’re looking for?” Cai Long retorted, though his mind immediately went to Xiao Zhi and Xiao Yu.
He couldn’t help but curse inwardly: Damn it, weren’t they adopted from a nameless orphanage?
How could there be a problem that attracted such a person?
“Hmph, let’s be straightforward, President Cai.
You must have bought two children from these people, one named Xiao Zhi and the other Xiao Yu.
Where are they now?” Tangyu asked coldly, his tone matter-of-fact, yet chilling.
Seeing on Tangyu’s phone the photos of the people he had dealt with, Cai Long was filled with rage.
This minor incident had somehow blown up into a major disaster and brought someone knocking at his door.
“Hmph, you must be joking.
I don’t know these two at all, and I have no idea who Xiao Zhi and Xiao Yu are,” Cai Long said with a cold laugh.
After all, Cai Long was like a lord of County LW, even the County Magistrate called him brother.
How could he bow to a young man?
His reputation was at stake.
The higher one’s status, the more they care about face.
Tangyu gave a faint shake of his head, knowing it wouldn’t be easy to make Cai Long comply.
People like him wouldn’t surrender until they saw the “Ghost Gate”.
Regardless, Tangyu would make him talk, even if it meant resorting to methods he preferred not to use.
To make a person speak, there were the classic 108 forms of cruel torture.
Tangyu, apologies, but he knew at least 300 types.
“Mr.
Cai, you’re a smart man.
Since I’m standing here talking to you, it means I’ve got a clear understanding of the situation.
If you care about your face, that’s fine.
But if you force me to use the methods I’d rather not, you’ll be the one at a loss.
I can make those two speak, and I can make you do the same.
If even a hair on Xiao Zhi and Xiao Yu is harmed, I will retaliate a hundredfold against you.
If you hand them over to me now, Mr.
Cai, I’ll leave without a word, and if you ever have the chance to visit Donglin City, I’ll play host to you.
If the opportunity arises, I might even introduce you to Mr.
Lin of Lin Group.
The main culprit has already received their due punishment.
You’re not the mastermind, so I can let you go, provided you don’t provoke me.
My patience is really running thin.
Don’t use your cleverness to test my patience, it wouldn’t be wise,” Tangyu said.
As Tangyu spoke confidently, lightly downplaying the gravity, Cai Long’s mouth twitched subtly.
The young man’s audacity was indeed notable.
But the fact that he had found Cai Long so quickly, fooled him, and got brought to the bedroom alone proved the young man’s capabilities were not to be underestimated.
Cai Long saw this quite plainly.
His current situation was very disadvantageous, and for some unknown reason, he was immobilized and feared he would be at a loss if he resorted to force.
But to give up just like that, could he still call himself Cai Long?
Have you ever seen a tiger submit to a cat?
Even powerful dragons are pressed by local snakes, but does a little bug think it can step on him?
This was a humiliation he couldn’t swallow.
“Tangyu, I don’t care who you are or what you can do.
You’d better think carefully about the consequences of all this.
This is my turf.
If you touch me, I guarantee none of the three of you will leave this place, and the outcome will be very grim.
You might just die, but those two pretty girls, huh, what do you think will happen to them?” Cai Long threatened in return.
“You think I’d fight a battle I’m not sure of?
Are you overestimating yourself or has your IQ dropped?” Tangyu looked at Cai Long and said.
Cai Long’s face grew colder, and a dark glint flickered in his eyes.
What other ace could this guy possibly have up his sleeve?
“Since I dared to come here, don’t think I’m afraid of your bodyguards.
I know you have a total of twelve bodyguards here, four of them armed.
I also know there’s a gun in your bedroom.”
While speaking, Tangyu pulled out a silver handgun from a hidden spot, already fitted with a silencer.
He toyed with the gun in his hand for a moment, then pulled back the safety and held the barrel against Cai Long’s head, smiling evily as if he had transformed into a demon.
“Nice gun, though I don’t like hot weapons.
Sometimes, I have to admit they can settle matters with a bit more ‘oomph’.
So, want to try out the power of your own gun?
I bet you’ve never tried.
Or shall we guess, do you think I dare shoot you?” Tangyu said.
Cai Long’s facial muscles twitched involuntarily.
When had he ever had a gun pointed at his head, and the irony of it being his own?
Facing the gun, he truly felt the breath of death, a sensation he loathed.
Nobody likes the sensation of looming death.
Gazing at that impassive face, he truly believed the other party was capable of outrageous actions.
So young, yet with such methods, who exactly was this person?
Cai Long knew deep down that he had gotten in trouble with someone quite formidable.
But here in LW County, to concede so easily to a young man, he couldn’t.
This humiliation, he would defend against, no matter what.
“Young man, you’d better think about the consequences of your actions.
To be honest, I don’t believe you have the guts to kill me.
If anything happens to me, I’ve told you none of the three will get out of here.
I don’t have your Xiao Zhi and Xiao Yu.
If you leave now, I can let bygones be bygones,” Cai Long said icily.
Since he’d spoken these words, it meant he wouldn’t easily bow down.
It was a fight to the death with Tangyu.
Tangyu shook his head.
Indeed, this Cai Long was much more difficult to deal with than the Luo Xiang couple, but he was prepared for all eventualities.
“I don’t like threats, I don’t like those petty tactics.
I’ve always handled things directly.
I’ve said all I have to say.
Since you insist on not releasing them, let’s settle it with a fight,” Tangyu shook his head, the corner of his mouth lifted as his hand suddenly gripped Cai Long’s neck, and the gun swiftly moved to Cai Long’s leg.
“Bang bang bang bang—” a series of gunshots rang out, and sprays of blood jetted forth as Tangyu discharged six bullets in a rapid streak, leaving three bloody holes in each of Cai Long’s legs, from which blood gushed out.
Like opening three springs, the blood flowed onto the carpet, quickly staining it red.
Waves of intense pain surged to his heart.
Cai Long, sweating profusely and veins bulging, had his face contorted to the utmost with anger.
