Extraordinary Soldier King in the City
Chapter 326: Call All Your Reinforcements

This made the middle-aged man shiver slightly, for at that moment, he actually perceived a chilling murderous intent from Chen Feng’s eyes.

His instincts told him that if this continued, Chen Feng might really attempt to kill him!

This caused a slight chill in the middle-aged man’s heart, and a trace of fear flashed through his eyes as he stared at Chen Feng, somewhat blustering and timorously spoke, "We live in a society governed by the rule of law, you dare to kill me, and you will certainly not escape the punishment of the law. Young man, I advise you not to act rashly and do something you’ll regret!"

"Oh? Are you scared?"

Chen Feng asked with a cold laugh.

"Hmph! I, Liu Gangchuan, have never been afraid! If you have the guts, just do it, as long as you’re not afraid of spending time in jail!"

The middle-aged man retorted haughtily with a cold huff.

But his eyes had betrayed him.

Chen Feng caught a trace of fear deep within those eyes!

"In that case, I’ll send you on your way!"

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes and suddenly reached out, gripping Liu Gangchuan’s neck, then slowly started to exert force.

Liu Gangchuan’s right hand was pinned to the table; he had no ability to resist and could only let Chen Feng choke him.

As Chen Feng’s grip tightened, Liu Gangchuan found breathing increasingly difficult.

At that moment, as death drew nearer, Liu Gangchuan was utterly panicked.

To be honest, he really didn’t want to die.

He had worked his way up from poverty to his current position, with money, power, and women to enjoy.

He hadn’t yet had his fill of it all; how could he possibly be willing to die?

Liu Gangchuan took a deep breath, his eyes darting about before a plan formed in his mind.

He hurriedly said, "Wait a moment!"

"What? Come to your senses?"

Chen Feng asked coldly.

"I... I will pay them half their wages first, okay?"

Liu Gangchuan bit his teeth and spoke.

"That’s impossible; it has to be the full amount, and it must be paid in one go!"

Chen Feng said coldly, without lessening the strength of his grip in the slightest.

Feeling like he was about to be strangled by Chen Feng, Liu Gangchuan urgently spoke again, "Okay, I agree to pay the full amount, but you have to let go of me first!"

Upon hearing Liu Gangchuan agree, Yang Dashan excitedly trembled all over and hurriedly looked at Chen Feng, "Young man, he agreed, let go of him first!"

However, Chen Feng was in no rush and instead looked down at Liu Gangchuan and said indifferently, "The money?"

"It’s in the safe; you have to let me go before I can get it!"

Liu Gangchuan pointed to the safe on the wall to the left of the desk and said.

"I can let you go, but I hope you don’t try any tricks, or you will bear the consequences!"

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes and spoke coldly.

At these words, Liu Gangchuan’s body involuntarily shuddered, a look of nervousness flashing across his eyes.

Though Liu Gangchuan concealed it well, he still couldn’t elude Chen Feng’s gaze.

However, Chen Feng curled the corner of his mouth, didn’t say anything, and still let go of Liu Gangchuan.

Seeing this, Liu Gangchuan felt like he had been granted a reprieve, and let out a long sigh of relief.

He endured the severe pain, pulled the pen that had pierced his right hand out of the desk, then got up from under the desk and walked over to the wall safe, ready to start entering the code to open it.

As he entered the code, he kept looking back at Chen Feng, using his body to shield the keypad thoroughly.

His demeanor was as if he were deathly afraid Chen Feng might peek at his safe’s code.

To this, Chen Feng just shook his head and laughed.

If he had wanted to look, a simple activation of his X-ray vision would have made anything Liu Gangchuan did to hide it futile!

However, he obviously had no such intention.

To put Liu Gangchuan at ease while getting the money, Chen Feng deliberately turned his head to look out of the window, no longer observing him.

Upon seeing this, a trace of joy flashed through Liu Gangchuan’s eyes.

While he entered the password, his other hand stealthily reached into his pocket, pulled out his cell phone, found a number, and sent a text message.

The content of the message was very simple, consisting only of the two characters for "save me".

After confirming the message was sent, Liu Gangchuan breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes brimming with ecstasy.

"Are you done yet?"

Just then, Chen Feng’s voice suddenly rang out beside his ear.

Startled, Liu Gangchuan fumbled and dropped his phone on the spot.

Seeing this, Liu Gangchuan’s expression changed, and he hurried to pick up the phone.

But before his hand could stretch out, a slender hand was already scooping up the phone ahead of him.

The owner of this hand was Chen Feng.

"Save you? Who are you asking to save you?" Chen Feng looked down at Liu Gangchuan, asking with an amused expression.

Since Liu Gangchuan had just sent the text message, the screen was still on that very message, allowing Chen Feng to see it as soon as he picked up the phone.

"Heh, since you’ve found out, then I’ve got nothing to hide. I’ll tell you the truth, once my people get this message, they will be here within three minutes. By then, your time will be up!" Liu Gangchuan laughed coldly, regaining his arrogant demeanor, standing up, and looking at Chen Feng with a smug expression.

"It’s over, we’re completely done for!"

Yang Dashan, who had been full of joy, went pale upon hearing this, nearly collapsing to the ground in fear.

It hadn’t occurred to him that Liu Gangchuan’s agreement to repay the money was merely a delaying tactic, actually preparing to find an opportunity to call for help!

Now they were truly doomed; once Liu Gangchuan’s large group of thugs arrived, neither he nor Chen Feng would be able to escape!

Thinking this, Yang Dashan quickly looked at Chen Feng and said, "Buddy, maybe we should just get out of here now!"

"Don’t worry, it’s okay!" Chen Feng said lightly with a smile, shaking his head.

At this moment, he was still calm, not showing the slightest sign of panic.

"Hmph, pretentious twit! Kid, I’ve spent so long in this world, where only I collect money from others—I’ve never had anyone make me pay them! You’re the first! While my men aren’t here yet, you’d better kneel and beg for mercy. Otherwise, in three minutes, when they arrive, I’ll let you know what cruelty is!" Liu Gangchuan sneered disdainfully at Chen Feng.

"Three minutes, huh? I’ll give you an additional half hour. I suggest you call all the backup you can, and use every connection you’ve got, or else I’m afraid you’ll regret it!" Chen Feng spoke nonchalantly and, after finishing, tossed the phone back to Liu Gangchuan.

"Regret? Haha, kid, you’re practically begging for death! I just fear you’ll be the one regretting it!" Liu Gangchuan caught the phone, laughed contemptuously, and started scrolling through his contact list for phone numbers.
