As they were slowly ascending the stairs, Xiang Yu suddenly gestured to stop Tie Zhuzi in his tracks and asked him to stay put.

Tie Zhuzi nodded and then watched as Xiang Yu cautiously moved forward.

Except for a large pillar ahead, there was nothing else, making Tie Zhuzi suspect that Xiang Yu was being overly cautious.

Xiang Yu approached the large pillar cautiously and then reached its other side.

At that moment, he saw a person clad in black, with a covered face, holding a submachine gun, and on guard.

The moment that person turned his head, he suddenly saw a face.

It was undoubtedly like seeing a ghost for him, but he quickly reacted, grabbed his gun to lift it, and prepared to shout to call his accomplices.

However, Xiang Yu would never give his opponent a chance in an ambush.

With one swift move, he grabbed the man’s neck and twisted it hard, promptly neutralizing him.

Xiang Yu carefully placed the body on the ground before gesturing for Tie Zhuzi to come over.

Tie Zhuzi was utterly admiring Xiang Yu, convinced that without him, he would have surely been caught.

“Brother Yu, how did you discover him?” Tie Zhuzi asked in astonishment.

“I didn’t discover him.

If it were me, I would also set an ambush here,” Xiang Yu straightforwardly replied, sharing the wisdom from his extensive experience.

After explaining, Xiang Yu continued to move cautiously forward.

“Brother Yu, there’s someone hiding ahead,” Tie Zhuzi suddenly said.

Xiang Yu looked at him approvingly, as he had sensed it too.

However, Tie Zhuzi’s realization that someone was hiding there was not because he had seen the person or due to his prior experience but because he had smelled the person’s scent.

The scent on the person matched the one whom Xiang Yu had just killed, indicating they were part of the same group.

“Handle that person cautiously; I’ll take care of the ones above first.” Xiang Yu trusted Tie Zhuzi’s capabilities, then he quietly went up the stairs alone.

When he reached the rooftop, Xiang Yu listened attentively but heard no movement above.

It seemed that their opponent was an expert, likely well concealed.

Since the foe was motionless, Xiang Yu took a risk.

Considering that Xiao Xuan and Zhong Qin were still inside, unaware of the situation and possibly in imminent danger, Xiang Yu quickly peeked out, scanning the surroundings rapidly.

Just then, a person hidden in a corner near Xiang Yu spoted him.

The person didn’t hesitate and prepared to spray bullets at Xiang Yu.

But Xiang Yu was faster; as soon as he saw the person, he had already thrown his dagger.

During the throw, he quickly glanced around with the corner of his eye and, realizing there were no others, he finally felt relieved.

The whole process was instantaneous.

In fact, Xiang Yu was gambling that there was only one person atop, which, if there had been another, could have complicated matters by alerting others inside.

After dispatching his opponent, Xiang Yu stepped forward to pull out the dagger, then pulled down the person’s mask.

Seeing someone he didn’t recognize, he didn’t bother with them and went straight downstairs.

Inside, Chen Zhiwei and another person were in a standoff.

Chen Zhiwei was no saint; he knew that if he released Zhong Qin now, not only would he fail to get the money, but his life would also be in jeopardy.

Having been in this line of work for so long, he had seen his fair share of backstabbing, and he didn’t think the man before him was one to honor his word.

“Hurry up and get your men out of here, or I’ll die along with him,” Chen Zhiwei had clearly lost his rationality.

The man in front still wore a faint smile as he looked at Chen Zhiwei and said, “Chen Zhiwei, I know you.

You’re a good man, strong and capable, but you’ve just followed the wrong leader.

How about this, I give you a chance, I’ll introduce you to my boss.

He loves talent, and he’ll definitely take you in.”

Without even thinking, Chen Zhiwei replied, “Thanks, but no thanks.

I’m tired of this life and want to live like a normal person.

Let me go today, and I promise I won’t say a word about any of this.”

“Haha…” The man burst into laughter as if he had heard a big joke, then looked at Chen Zhiwei and said, “Chen Zhiwei, oh Chen Zhiwei, how can you be so foolish?

Do you think you can escape today, knowing so much?

Do you think my boss would let you go?

You’re still naively stupid.”

“I knew you guys would pull this trick, but no matter, the lady is in my hands.

I’d rather die together with her than to lose anything,” Chen Zhiwei said as he held the dagger close to Zhong Qin’s neck.

Zhong Qin could even feel the icy chill from the dagger.

Just then, she began wailing again, unable to believe she might die here, as she had not lived enough yet.

“Xiang Yu, you big bastard, you promised to protect me and keep me from harm, where are you now, you big liar, I’ll never trust you again, I want Shen San to kill you…” While crying, Zhong Qin yelled out loud.

The crowd felt helpless; who would have thought Zhong Qin would react this way during such a serious moment.

“Stop your damn crying, even if you cry, Xiang Yu isn’t going to come rescue you, just give up on that hope,” Chen Zhiwei, annoyed, threatened her then.

“I’ll cry if I want to, we’re about to die anyway, I might as well curse Xiang Yu, you big jerk, you big dummy…” Zhong Qin cried harder and harder, making Chen Zhiwei equally helpless.

Taking this little witch hostage was really troubling.

“Stop crying, stop crying, you’re too old to be crying like this; keep crying and you won’t be pretty anymore, how embarrassing,” he said.

Just then, a voice suddenly spoke up, sounding helpless, but to Zhong Qin’s ears, it was like music from heaven.

She lifted her tear-stained eyes to look ahead and saw two people approaching.

One of them was strikingly handsome, with a light smile on his face.

And the man following him was tall and burly, none other than Xiang Yu and Tie Zhuzi.

Chen Zhiwei hadn’t expected Xiang Yu to appear suddenly.

At that moment, he was completely shocked.

Could it be that Xiang Yu and the man opposite him were in cahoots?

But that didn’t make sense.

If they were in cahoots, there was no need for this hassle, as Xiang Yu could’ve just walked out with Zhong Qin.

Looking again, the man on the other side looked as surprised, if not more surprised, than Chen Zhiwei himself.

“Xiang Yu you big bastard, I knew you would come to rescue me, why did you take so long?

I was scared out of my wits thinking I was going to die here,” Zhong Qin was relieved to see Xiang Yu arrive.

It seemed like as long as Xiang Yu showed up, everything could be easily resolved.

Xiang Yu gave a chuckle and said, “There was a traffic jam on the road, so I got a bit delayed.”

Tie Zhuzi behind Xiang Yu was somewhat helpless.

No matter what, Xiang Yu always managed to lighten the mood.

And what was even more absurd was that Zhong Qin simply uttered an ‘Oh’ and believed him…
