Supreme Heir Son-in-law
Chapter 148: Who is Truly Seeking Death?

"Clap, clap, clap!" Xu Ke saw that the two people showed no sign of stopping, so he took the initiative to start applauding.

"What a lively interest," Xu Ke said with a smile on his face, but there was no warmth in his voice.

"Ah!" The woman, upon hearing a man’s unfamiliar voice in the room, instinctively reached out to cover her body, closed her eyes, and screamed loudly, which made the two men in the room frown instinctively.

"Smack!" Ye Ge was not in the mood to show tenderness to women, and he reached out and gave the woman a hard slap.

"Shut up, or I’ll cut out your tongue," Ye Ge said viciously. The woman covered her mouth and indeed fell silent, transforming the room into a battlefield between the two men.

"I truly underestimated you. How did you get in here? I didn’t hear a sound at all." Ye Ge set his eyes on Xu Ke, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes but no fear, as if he didn’t take Xu Ke seriously.

"I have my ways. Even if you try to stall tonight, no one will come to save you." Xu Ke leaned casually against the door frame, his eyes cold, a butterfly knife dancing beautifully in his hand.

"I investigated you, the son-in-law of the Lin Family, underestimated for three years. If it wasn’t for a video leaked online, if it wasn’t for my men coming to me over and over again, I wouldn’t have believed you’re the Ju Feng who defeated two of my best fighters in the underground boxing ring, and yet today, you come to me effortlessly. You really keep surprising me."

"With your capability, there’s really no need to stay in the Lin Family any longer. Long Tian is too unambitious. You’re wasting your talent working for him. Why don’t you come to my side? I will definitely not let such a gem gather dust. Once you join me, you’ll be the Vice Gang Leader of the Bai Feng Gang, second to none, with supreme power, wads of cash, and endless beauties. Following me is far more promising than following Long Tian. Won’t you consider it?"

Ye Ge stepped off the bed, dressed himself slowly, and when he looked at Xu Ke, his eyes carried a sincerity that seemed all these promises could immediately come true if Xu Ke just nodded.

Seeing Ye Ge’s performance, Xu Ke sneered, "You really are pragmatic. Did you forget what you did to me and my wife earlier while saying these words? Join you? If I agreed today, wouldn’t my corpse appear in the news tomorrow?" With his prey in front of him, Xu Ke felt like toying with him. He preferred to slowly torment the opponent rather than killing him instantly.

"Misunderstanding, a blatant misunderstanding. I never gave orders to harm you and your wife. A talent like you, I couldn’t recruit you fast enough. How could I make you hold a grudge against me? This must have been done behind my back by someone under me. Give me some time and I’ll surely give you justice by catching the person targeting you and hand him over to you to deal with." At this point, Ye Ge was fully dressed, looking like a despicable gentleman with gleaming eyes of pride wanting to spill out, amusing Xu Ke immensely.

"You better wait until you’re underground to investigate this. Today, you must die." Xu Ke put away the butterfly knife and his smile, speaking coldly.

"Hmph, it’s not over yet. Who knows who will win in the end? You’re celebrating too early." Xu Ke reached for a small handgun hidden inside his clothes, his expression wholly unmasked, wearing an unconcealable smile.

He pulled out a silver handgun from his pocket, aiming the black muzzle at Xu Ke’s head, "If you had stayed hiding in the mountaintop villa, I really couldn’t have done anything, but why did you come down? You really saved me a lot of trouble. Given your cooperation, I’ll make sure it’s quick, but in your next life, remember not to be so arrogant."

Even after Ye Ge finished speaking, Xu Ke remained motionless, looking indifferent, reminiscent of Ye Ge earlier, making Ye Ge feel uneasy, but it quickly vanished when he pulled the trigger.

A gunshot rang in the room, but Xu Ke remained leaning against the door frame, playing with the butterfly knife once more, without a scratch, wearing a mocking smile on his face.

"How is this possible? Impossible, this can’t be!" Ye Ge’s expression finally changed. He pulled the trigger frantically, gunshot after gunshot, but the person opposite remained unscathed, Ye Ge’s voice tuned disarrayed, eyes filled with unabashed panic.

"Are you looking for this?" Xu Ke, watching the opponent’s panic, wore a wicked smile, pulling out a bullet from his pants pocket to show Ye Ge.

"When did you get it? How didn’t I know?" Looking at the bullet, which should have remained in his gun, now in Xu Ke’s hand, Ye Ge’s shock was utterly unhidden.

"You didn’t know when I came in either." Xu Ke responded nonchalantly.

Ye Ge’s panic and shock subsided briefly and vanished, "Yes, this was my mistake, but don’t get cocky. In a one-on-one fight, I’m not positive you’d win against me." Ye Ge stretched his arms, twisted his neck, and looked at Xu Ke with profound eyes.

"Are you misunderstanding something? Why would I engage in a one-on-one fight with you?"

Xu Ke, seeing the burning battle intent in the opponent’s eyes, couldn’t help but let out a light laugh, resembling a loud slap across Ye Ge’s face.

In Ye Ge’s hostile gaze, Xu Ke drew out the handgun he had just seized, the black muzzle aiming at Ye Ge, reversing the earlier scenario in an instant, and at that moment, Ye Ge’s face turned pale.

"You, you need to be rational. Killing is illegal. Even if you don’t consider yourself, think of your wife at home. I’m the leader of the Bai Feng Gang. If I die here today, do you think my brothers in the gang would let your family go? Or do you think you could hide forever in the mountaintop villa?" Ye Ge licked his somewhat dry lips, looking at Xu Ke’s gun, speaking sincerely.

"I despise being threatened the most in my life." Xu Ke smiled emotionlessly, firing a bullet without warning at Ye Ge’s knee, making the man who stood tall a moment ago kneel abruptly.
