913 What did my precious ever do to you?
Liu Ye stared at the door Lin Hui had exited. As much as he wanted to ask what it was about, he knew not to pry into other people’s business.
He could only do as the man instructed and turn back to look at the many monitor screens in front of him.
However, he focuses his attention on one of the screens.
The monitor showed the images from the surveillance set up around Lin Hui’s house.
He sees Lin Hui step out from the front door and walk to his (Lin Hui) motorcycle.
Liu Ye didn’t have to think about his next move. He stood up from the chair and walked over to the door. However, he doesn’t walk out of the room but stops in front of the power box.
He types in a code and opens it, and the sight of multiple switches becomes visible to the naked eye. He turns on one button, then another.
As he did this, a beeping sound echoes throughout the house, followed by metal clinking as the doors and bulletproof windows lock.
He turns to look at the window a look of amusement appears on his face.
“Cool…”
When he and his siblings arrived at the house, he was amazed by the structure of the place. At first, he was uncomfortable with how open the house was due to the glass walls, but he eventually got used to it.
He later found out that Lin Hui owned two properties. An apartment in the heart of Imperial and this glass house in the mountains.
The reason he and his siblings were brought here was so that their father could not find them. It was also in case Tao Meng, and his men decided to come to look for problems.
Plus, the security system was personally done by Lin Hui, so no one knew the place better than anyone.
Ending his thoughts, Liu Ye closes the power box and then walks back to sit down.
His eyes scanned the many images in front of him, and he turned serious.
“Don’t worry, Master. Your apprentice will not fail you. I will hold down the fort until your return.”
As determination washed over Liu Ye in the streets of Imperial, Lin Hui could be seen driving amongst the light traffic.
His motorcycle engine revs into the night with multiple turns before he enters a street crowded with people.
Although the sky was dark with rain, this street glistened with lights that made the night seem like day. The sound of laughter and chattering could be heard from all directions, but the air around the place was dangerous.
He parks before a red brick building and leisurely removes his helmet. Holding his helmet with his right hand, his other hand raises as he stroke his hair back.
Even with the rain trickling against him, he still emitted the appearance of a handsomely fierce warrior.
“I’m at the location.”
He looks like a madman talking to himself but removes his earpiece to let others know he is on the phone with someone.
He removes his earpiece as he gets down from his motorcycle and makes his way toward the red brick building.
Since his boss and Liu Shan lectured him about doing things independently, he’s kept the two updated on his locations. He knows how angry they would be if he didn’t inform them.
“Hey kid, are you lost or something?”
He only took a few steps when a groggy voice sounded behind him. He stops in his tracks and turns to look at the person but sees a group of seven men.
These men were standing not too far from where he had parked his motorcycle, and he could tell they had too much to drink.
He stares at the men and then glances at his motorcycle before moving his eyes back to them.
“What do you want?”
The man who called out to him howls a laugh and walks towards Lin Hui.
“Who do you think you are? Do you even know where you are right now?”
Despite the man’s taunting voice, Lin Hui remained unfazed. He stared at the men as they approached him and couldn’t help but be reminded of when he came to Retro with Qi Li.
The only difference is that this time, he was alone.
A long sigh escapes his mouth as he faintly shakes his head.
“Why do these people always ask if I know where I am?”
He closes his eyes for a split second to steady his mind, then opens them again.
“If I didn’t know where I am, why would I even come here?”
His response embarrassed the seven men, and they stopped in their tracks. Anger quickly replaces their embarrassment, and one of the men sneers at Lin Hui.
“Trying to get smart with us? Are you seeking death?”
Lin Hui couldn’t help but sigh again, but this time out of frustration. He tilts his head back and stares at the dark sky, allowing the rain to hit his face.
“I seriously don’t have time for this.”
He murmurs before lowering his head to look at the men again.
“I need to be somewhere, so I’ll ignore you guys for now.”
He pays no more attention to them and turns around. He walks towards the red brick building, but after two steps, a loud crash echoes behind him, followed by the men hysterically laughing.
However, all he could focus on was the crash.
It was a sound that was too familiar and sent a bone-chilling sensation throughout his entire body.
He stood unmoving as the rain dampened his body. His behavior made the men behind him laugh even more, and they began to howl taunts at him.
“Look at him. He seems to be in shock that he can’t move.”
“Hahaha, let’s see how he will get out of here now.”
“So much for trying to be tough. He’s just a nobody.”
Their voices continued, but they did not see that the calm expression on Lin Hui’s face had darkened as a murderous glint of light flashed across his eyes.
His hand holding his helmet tightens until his veins popped.
He slowly turns to face the seven men but looks at his motorcycle.
The beautiful Ninja 14r that his boss had gifted him was supposed to be parked nicely, but now it was lying on the cold ground.
His darkened eyes stare at his precious motorcycle before slowly scanning the faces of each man as a drop of rain slides down his temple to chin.
“You shouldn’t have done that.”
His tone of voice was calm with a hint of danger behind it, but the seven men laughed in ridicule. Each person could not bare to take Lin Hui seriously.
“Hahaha, look at him getting all angry. Does he think he can hurt us?”
“Oh no, I’m so scared. Hahaha. I’m so scared of his weak punches.”
“Boy, you are outnumbered. What do you think you can do to us?”
Lin Hui was void of all emotions as he stared at the men in front of him. He engraved each person’s face into his mind and parts his lips.
“I didn’t want to stir any unnecessary troubles, but it seems like you bunch of idiots just can’t read the situation.”
He lifts one leg, then the other, as he walks toward the group of hooligans.
“Now, I’m going to have to kick your asses for hurting my precious.”
The men looked at one another and then back to Lin Hui. Unable to take him seriously, they laughed together.
The man who was the first to call out to Lin Hui opened his mouth to speak, but as he tried, he saw a tight fist in front of him.
He takes a step back to dodge the punch, but he is a step too late.
Lin Hui threw a deadly punch in the man’s face, causing the man to fall back and spit blood.
The man hurriedly got back up on his feet with a darkened face. Blood slid down the corner of his mouth, but he wiped it off like it was water.
He explodes like a volcano and lunges at Lin Hui with his right arm aiming to scythe Lin Hui’s head. However, Lin Hui sidestepped and ducked under his arm, to his surprise.
Lin Hui bounced back up and sent another punch. This time, directly at the man’s throat.
Leaving no room for the others to react, he kicks one man in the stomach before launching another punch at another man, another, and so on.
The seven men scrambled to get on their feet, but the second they stood up, they were dropped back to the ground.
Lin Hin shifted his attacks with lightning speed. Each attack becomes deadlier than the other.
“If you wanted to pick a fight, pick it with me. What did my precious ever do to you?!”
Anger engulfed his mind as he continued to launch attacks on the men.
“Do you know how hard my boss worked to get that motorcycle?!”
His swings became blind with fury, both hands going with every ounce of power he could muster.
“Do you know how much that motorcycle meant when my boss gifted it to me?!”
As the group of men went down one by one, he focused solely on the man who called out to him.
He hits him with a left, then a right, splitting the man’s cheeks in a bone-deep gash and pulping his lips.
“I will never forgive you for what you did.”
The man was bloody and battered, but Lin Hui didn’t stop. It wasn’t until minutes later that he found his right mind and stopped.
His breathing was heavy as he stood over the seven men. He stares at their appearance, which is now battered and bleeding from his attacks.
He wipes the corner of his lip with no traces of blood and stares with daggers at the man he had knocked out, then at the others.
“I have unfinished business to attend to, so I will let you guys live for now.”
He fixes his jacket and then walks over to his motorcycle to help it get up.
“But matter where you guys go or try to hide, I will find you.”
He inspects the vehicle as the men grunt in pain. When he saw the scratches on the motorcycle, his jaw clenched tightly.
“Because I will come to collect your fates.”
He gives his last message and makes his way to the building without turning back to look at the scene. It was as if he had just arrived and a fight had not broken out.
