Wealthy Chapter 296

Baldy was so nervous that he didn’t say a word, and I could see he was so ashamed that his whole face was red.

“When the house is ……”

“Don’t call me dangler. Baldy, I don’t have a brother like you, I told you to kill Zhang Chao, you didn’t kill why did you lie to me that you did? You even betrayed me.”

“I ……”

I am now very sure that this look of Zhao Zichen is definitely not an act, no one can act so realistically.

If he was acting, he didn’t need to lie to Baldy.

“You are a senior disciple of the Cloud Cliff School, I can’t beat you, and all of us here combined are no match for you. Get lost yourself, and don’t let me see you again.”

Shi Sheng could only watch the show, his intelligence was short.

Baldy’s eyes were red, this was the first time I had seen him like this.

“Pawnbroker, I’m from the Red Lantern Society, I won’t leave.”

“You’re not leaving?! Oh, then are you playing me, Zhao Zichen, for a second fool? Why did you help Zhang Chao disguise himself and help him hide from us, what exactly is your purpose? I’m already treating you like a brother by not pursuing these matters with you, leaving some brotherly love, yet you still don’t know what’s good for you.”

“I won’t leave, Master, you are my benefactor. Even if you beat me to death today, I will not leave.”

Not only did Baldy not leave, he even took a step back and knelt down on one knee.

He looked at the bottle of wine on the table and gritted his teeth, “I have had second thoughts and deserve the wrath of Heaven, break this hand to show my loyalty!”

After saying this, Baldy swung the bottle and smashed it, then picked up a piece of broken gla*s and stabbed it directly towards the palm of his hand.

Zhao Zichen obviously panicked for a moment, but he didn’t make a sound to stop it. Seeing him like this, I was completely convinced that this guy had definitely betrayed and defected to the enemy.

Because only if he really wanted me to die would he punish Baldy with a hand because he didn’t kill me.

If it was just an act, how could Zhao Zichen be willing to pay such a huge price?

I wanted to stop it, but Baldy was so fast that I was too late.

“Wait.” Just at that instant, suddenly Shi Sheng shouted over the face that was swollen beyond the head of a pig, and the shard of broken gla*s stopped not even a centimetre from the back of Baldy’s hand.

“Old Brother Zhao, everything must also be thought of in a good light. Look, didn’t old brother Baldy just send Zhang Chao to us? That sl*t Chu Xiao Xiao shouted that she wanted to see the corpse alive, so today we can kill Zhang Chao and send the corpse to her.”

Zhao Zichen didn’t accept the favour, but said, “Elder brother Shi, I won’t hide it from you. There are hundreds of mouths waiting to be fed in my Red Lantern Club now, how much income can I get from the Black Street alone? I know from Zhang Chao’s mouth that you are making arms, so I wanted to approach you and negotiate a price. The most important thing in our business is honesty, and I can’t keep someone around that you can’t trust, Boss Shi.”

Shi Sheng laughed, “Trustworthy, trustworthy, this little brother is so good, give me as a personal bodyguard.”

It was not known whether Shi Sheng was joking or serious, but this one sentence succeeded in making Baldy stop.

Shi Sheng continued emotionally, “Little brother Zhao, I actually didn’t trust you until just now, but your actions just now made me believe you. I’ve been looking for a partner in this business for a long time. I’ve just been thinking about how I could have counted on Zhang Chao, but I’m a brave man with no strategy, and I need a warlord like you around me.”

Zhao Zichen said in shock, “Aren’t you worried that I am Zhang Chao’s spy? It turns out that I have a good relationship with Zhang Chao.”

Shi Sheng said boldly, “How could that be? If you hadn’t splashed Zhang Chao with tea, I wouldn’t have recognised this man as Zhang Chao until now. I believe you, old brother Zhao!”

He turned to my side again, as he had been beaten up by me too many times already, he now had a psychological fear of me and hid away from me.

“Zhang Chao, Zhang Chao, that B*tch Sun Qiaoqiao has been talking to you quite a lot. You’re putting on this show now, just to sabotage my business tomorrow, right? But it’s a pity. You’ve got Brother Zhao figured out.”

My eyes were red with hatred and I stared at Zhao Zichen as if fire was going to spurt out of my eyes.

“I was not expecting this brute to renege on his word.”

Shi Sheng laughed heatedly, “Older brother Zhao, look at this guy still cursing you, he’s really not a thing. Let’s finish him off.”

Shi Shengchong said and handed Zhao Zichen a gun over.

“Old Brother Zhao, don’t say I’m too cautious. If you kill Zhang Chao, you’ll be my brother from now on. We’re both in the road, it’s not that hard to kill someone, right?”

A security guard stepped on my head to stop me from raising my head, and Baldy was even less likely to come to my rescue; he would only listen to Zhao Zichen’s orders.

There was only one last hope in my heart that Zhao Zichen was really acting, that he hadn’t really jumped backwards.

But Zhao Zichen didn’t hesitate at all, he grabbed the gun and aimed it at my head and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

I closed my eyes furiously, thinking I was dead, but the gun only went off with a “click” and I didn’t die.

Zhao Zichen looked at Shi Sheng in confusion.

Shi Sheng smiled broadly and pressed down on Zhao Zichen’s gun: “Brother Zhao, there is no bullet in this gun.”

Zhao Zichen said with a leathery smile, “You’re testing me?”

“At least you pa*sed the test. With your complete lack of hesitation, I believe that you and Zhang Chao are not in cahoots.”

Zhao Zichen, however, was not very happy and grimaced, “Boss Shi, we are in a cooperative relationship, in future you should not test me, just give me a real gun loaded with bullets. I’m not afraid to blow Zhang Chao’s head off, I just want our cooperation, I have too many brothers to feed.”

Unexpectedly bumping into a nose, Shi Sheng smiled sarcastically and said, “Little brother, don’t blame me. I’ll start by telling you what we’re going to do tomorrow. Our goods are coming out of three warehouses, and since I’ve been topped by Zhang Chao, maybe that cop Xia Gehuai is really in trouble, maybe the police already suspect me, and it’s not convenient for me to appear at the scene of the delivery. Originally we shipped all the way to the main road, but now we really need to be careful. For two of the routes, I’ve got my most trusted brothers to escort them, and I haven’t found anyone yet for the other one, so you’ll press the goods. I’ll do the deal in a place separate from the goods.”

These words were, to put it plainly, like telling Zhao Zichen, “I’ll go on if there’s any advantage, you go if there’s any danger.”

The most dangerous part of the whole transaction was the delivery process.

Zhao Zichen nodded and was about to speak when suddenly the mobile phone in Shi Sheng’s pocket rang.

“What did you say? Where did Yanzi go?” Shi Sheng yelled into the phone.

It looked like Ayu was starting to move.

Shi Sheng’s phone was not well soundproofed and my hearing was sharp enough to hear the voice on the other end of the line.

The voice on the other end was that of a middle-aged man in a panic: “Boss Shi, we don’t know either. Yanzi used to stand in front of the eveil’eye bar, but today she was suddenly abducted by a man. When I called her, she didn’t answer. I thought you asked me to keep an eye on Yanzi, and I couldn’t live up to this salary, so I called you right away.”

Shi Sheng was so flustered that he hung up the phone before he could hear too much from this man.

He immediately flipped out Yanzi’s number, but sure enough, it was surprisingly switched off when he dialed it.

Shi Sheng’s face was pale and very nervous, and Zhao Zichen said comfortingly, “Boss Shi, it could be that someone is trying to investigate your shipment tomorrow, but can’t find any clues, so they want to start with the woman closest to you.”
