Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Game of Life and Death

"Slap!"

Another slap rang out, Xiao Zheng tried to speak, but he actually couldn’t find a reason.

"Blatantly carrying a gun and threatening society, how could you live up to the nation and the people? This slap is on behalf of the nation and the people!"

Xiao Zheng slapped with passionate fervor, his zeal knew no bounds, and even He Qiang and the others were stunned by his false righteousness.

"Mr. Du, when do you plan to repay the money?" Xiao Zheng asked with a smile, looking at him.

"Heh, if you have the guts, kill me, or else I will definitely retaliate against you!" Du Haishan knew Xiao Zheng’s prowess; previously, one man took down more than ten, and no matter how formidable he was, he couldn’t possibly be Xiao Zheng’s match.

"Retaliate? How do you plan to retaliate?" Xiao Zheng looked at him with playful interest and said with a smile, "Since Mr. Du is so unafraid of death, why don’t we play a little game?"

"What game? What sort of tricks are you trying to pull? Kid, you’d better kill me today, otherwise I’ll make sure you die a horrible death!"

"Heh, perhaps you won’t have the chance." Xiao Zheng shrugged, opened the revolver’s cylinder, and with one thumb pressing on a chamber, he emptied all the bullets out of it.

Clang clang clang... The bullets fell to the ground with a clear sound.

Six bullets fell, leaving one remaining in the chamber.

In front of everyone’s gaze, Xiao Zheng started spinning the cylinder with a snap.

The single bullet previously kept in place shuffled around as it spun.

Holding the gun, Xiao Zheng walked up to Du Haishan and said casually, "Now, there’s only one bullet left in the chamber. The game we’re going to play is to see whose life is harder."

"To see whose life is harder? What... what exactly does he want to play?"

"My God, who exactly is this Xiao Zheng? Does he really not fear death?"

"We’ve already got the upper hand, isn’t this too extreme to play?"

The security guards felt both tense and thought Xiao Zheng was crazy.

He seemed like a completely different person compared to the seemingly modest and ordinary Xiao Zheng before.

"Xiao Zheng!"

Mo Anna called out, giving him a look.

In Mo Anna’s eyes, she would rather not recover the tail money than put Xiao Zheng at such risk of losing his life.

She knew Du Haishan was determined not to pay back the money, and Xiao Zheng was only trying to scare him with this game into making a concession, but... but this game was no game at all, it was a bet on life itself, and if he lost, there could be death!

"Hmph, kid, when Laozi was playing tough, you were still playing in the mud. You think you can intimidate Laozi with tricks like this?" Du Haishan scoffed, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his eyes gloomily fixed on Xiao Zheng.

"Alright, let’s start then." Xiao Zheng pointed the gun barrel at his own head, a playful smile hanging on his lips.

Seeing him point the gun barrel at his head, He Qiang was completely convinced.

Previously, he had been arrogant and cocky, thinking Xiao Zheng was nothing more than a weak scholar, a man who lived by his mouth, but now he understood that Xiao Zheng was the real deal!

In a moment of high tension for everyone, Xiao Zheng pulled the trigger.

Click!

At the sound of the gun, everyone’s heart screamed, and when they opened their eyes, they saw that Xiao Zheng was still standing there, with no bloody scene unfolding.

The anxiety in their hearts then eased.

"Now it’s your turn, Mr. Du." Xiao Zheng handed the gun to Du Haishan.

Du Haishan clenched his teeth and glared coldly at Xiao Zheng, saying, "Laozi has always been lucky. I don’t believe it’s really going to cost me my life!"

Saying this, Du Haishan raised the gun to his head, but his heart was pounding wildly.

If he said he wasn’t afraid, that would be a lie.

The revolver had six bullets, and now there was only one left. Just now, Xiao Zheng had fired a blank, which meant there was now a one-in-five chance left. If luck wasn’t on his side, he would inevitably be lying in his own blood on the spot!

However, Du Haishan still believed his luck couldn’t be that bad.

Thus, he closed his eyes, and with a click, fired the gun at his own head. It was a long while after the shot before he allowed his tense heart to relax.

Because he had bet correctly!

"Haha... Kid, I’ve always been lucky. Now there’s only a one-in-four chance left. Are you sure you dare to continue playing?" Du Haishan laughed triumphantly and casually tossed the gun to Xiao Zheng.

At that moment, the atmosphere was extremely tense!

Even the dozens of people present were more nervous than Xiao Zheng and the others.

Because this was a gamble with life at stake, and the loser would have to pay with their life.

"Is that so?" Xiao Zheng caught the pistol, kissed it, and spoke to it earnestly and seriously, "Darling, with such a good relationship between us, would you really have the heart to shoot me?"

"Haha..."

The crowd couldn’t help but laugh, completely amused by Xiao Zheng’s words.

Mo Anna couldn’t stand the oppressive atmosphere any longer. She gracefully stepped forward and took Xiao Zheng’s hand. Her eyes filled with concern as she said, "Xiao Zheng, that’s enough. Don’t play anymore!"

"Why not play? It’s rare to have someone willing to play with me. Of course, I’m going to enjoy it."

"But it’s deadly! No matter which one of you dies, there will be no good end." Mo Anna really felt the urge to hit him.

The more laid-back and nonchalant his appearance, the more anxious Mo Anna became.

She didn’t want to see Xiao Zheng die today.

If Du Haishan died, not only would they fail to get the money back, but all of them would end up in prison!

"Die? The fortune teller old man told me I would live to be ninety-nine." Xiao Zheng grinned with a smile.

"Live my ass! You’re courting death right now. If you die, whom will Sister Mo rely on in the future?" Mo Anna gently punched him, pouting her rosy lips and giving him a sideways glare, exuding the charm of a mature woman throwing a tantrum.

"Damn, Sister Mo, at your age, can you stop acting like a spoiled child? It really gives people goosebumps." Xiao Zheng felt his hair stand on end.

Mo Anna was so frustrated that her chest ached. Seeing his confident demeanor, she deliberately whispered into his ear, "You scoundrel, what exactly do you want to play at, are you sure about it? If you’re not, just stop it and come home with Sister Mo. If things really get bad, I’ll take care of you from now on."

"Holy sh*t, Sister Mo, you’re not thinking of becoming my sugar mama, are you?" Xiao Zheng shuddered.

"Take care of your soul!" Mo Anna glared at him irritably and pinched his waist.

The pain made Xiao Zheng gasp.

Looking at the two of them coquettishly bickering, Du Haishan was really losing his patience.

He angrily said, "Kid, are you scared?"

Scared?

Xiao Zheng smirked playfully.

He picked up the revolver and toyed with it in his hand, laughing, "There’s now a one-in-four chance, meaning, in four shots, one will be a live bullet."

At this point, Xiao Zheng paused, his gaze sweeping over the faces of everyone present, all tense and excited, "How about we play something thrilling?"
