Chapter 140 Seeking One's Own Death
"Such a good car is such a waste."
The man with the earring pried open the car door and pulled Lin Fan out of the car.
The two men put Lin Fan into a woven bag, threw it in the trunk, and then drove away from the intersection.
Under the cover of darkness, the van drove to an abandoned factory in the suburbs.
The two got out of the car, carried the sack containing Lin Fan out, and threw it on the ground.
"Brother, do you think they might double-cross us?" the man with the earring said as he walked, dragging his woven bag.
Another man pulled out a gun from his pocket and brandished it: "If he dares to double-cross me, I'll kill him!"
"Brother, you have this guy, how about we ask for a bit more?" The man with the earring kicked the woven bag with a wicked grin. "This kid is dressed well, he must be a big shot."
"Even the most important person only has one life. Once they're dead, how can they expect to get money back?"
The two walked and talked until they arrived at a factory.
The abandoned factory, spanning over a thousand square meters, took on a more eerie air under the cover of night.
In the center of the empty factory was a chair, and Ji Shangde was sitting in the chair waiting for the thugs to arrive.
Behind him stood Ji Wuque and several imposing bodyguards, who were wearing sunglasses late at night, looking utterly pretentious.
"Boss, I've brought the person to you. Here's the money."
The man with the earring threw the woven bag heavily on the ground and looked at Ji Shangde with a sly grin.
"Open it and inspect the goods," Ji Shangde said with a stern face.
The man with the earring snorted coldly, took a utility knife and ripped a large hole in the woven bag. Then he bent down, grabbed the bag, and shook it, sending Lin Fan rolling to the ground.
"Is this the correct product?" another thug asked.
“That’s right, it’s him.” Ji Shangde sneered, “You can leave now.”
"Can we go now?" The gang leader's eyes narrowed, and he instinctively reached into his coat and grabbed the weapon.
"Oh, a double-cross?" The man with the earring sneered, glancing at his older brother.
The moment the man with the earring looked at his older brother, he heard a gunshot ring out. Then the older brother fell to the ground with a bloody hole between his eyebrows.
The man with the earring was shocked. Before he could react, a second gunshot rang out, taking his life.
Ji Shangde glanced contemptuously at the thugs lying on the ground and laughed, "I told you to leave, but you wouldn't. Don't blame me for that!"
Lin Fan suddenly opened his eyes, straightened up, patted his clothes and laughed, "I won't pretend anymore, you old bastard, you're ruthless enough."
"Alive?" Ji Wuque, standing behind, looked shocked.
Ji Shangde calmly waved his hand and then said to Lin Fan, "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm so scared! I'm terrified!"
Lin Fan looked around: "An abandoned factory in the suburbs, a godforsaken place. If I were to die here, I'd probably be a skeleton and no one would even notice."
"Heh, that's interesting."
Seeing that Lin Fan did not kneel down and beg for mercy, Ji Shangde became interested: "I checked, and it is indeed Wuyou who was at fault first."
"Then this whole thing doesn't really look like an apology to me," Lin Fan said with a laugh.
"Hahaha, apologize? You're dreaming."
Ji Shangde said with a disdainful look: "In the entire Shancheng City, I'm second to none. Even if I'm wrong, I won't apologize to a piece of trash like you!"
"In Shancheng City, I only respect the president of Shancheng Group; no one else is worthy of my attention."
Lin Fan's attitude this morning really angered Ji Shangde. He later learned that Lin Fan had also knocked out the two bodyguards at the door.
After Ji Wuyou woke up, he also mentioned that Lin Fan had mocked him, but he embellished the story, saying that Lin Fan had mocked the entire Ji family.
Ji Shangde couldn't tolerate a useless son-in-law from a second-rate family coming to provoke him.
"You even know that your Ji family is second?" Lin Fan sneered. "I thought Ji Wuyou's arrogance was inherited from you."
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Ji Wuque wanted nothing more than to beat Lin Fan to death right now: "What my brother says or does has nothing to do with you, you piece of trash!"
"Even if he claims to be number one, do you, a piece of trash, have the right to judge?"
Ji Wuque knew about Ji Wuyou's arrogant and proud nature, but he and Ji Shangde didn't discipline him much, thinking that as long as they didn't offend the Shancheng Group, everything would be easy to handle.
Lin Fan said calmly, "Are you done talking? It's time to make your move."
Ji Shangde was taken aback. Was this good-for-nothing tired of living? That makes sense. Being a live-in son-in-law for so long had been so stifling. He probably wanted to die a long time ago.
"I'll grant your wish!" Ji Shangde waved his hand, signaling the bodyguard to fire.
Before the bullet even left the barrel, Lin Fan instantly bent down and picked up the paper cutter from the ground.
The bodyguard was startled, and the paper cutter had already slipped from his hand, flying towards Ji Wuque's neck.
When Ji Wuque came to his senses, he found a cut on his neck, from which blood was gushing out.
"what--"
Ji Wuque clutched his neck and cried out in pain.
"I thought you, a martial artist, could dodge it. You still need to train." Lin Fan raised an eyebrow. "Stop shouting. The more you shout, the more blood you'll bleed. Find a place to rest!"
Ji Shangde looked at Ji Wuque in alarm: "Son! What's wrong? Are you alright!"
He was just an ordinary person and didn't see Lin Fan's actions clearly, nor did he know what had happened. All he knew was that Ji Wuque's hands were covered in blood.
"Call an ambulance! What are you standing there for?!" Ji Shangde shouted at the bodyguards again.
"Okay! That's it." the bodyguard said anxiously.
"Old man, are you still so stubborn?" Lin Fan sneered.
"What nonsense are you spouting! Still being stubborn even as you die, you piece of trash!"
Ji Shangde snatched the gun from the bodyguard and kept pulling the trigger while aiming at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan didn't even need to dodge; Ji Shangde's aim was off-target, and he missed the target on the first shot.
"Don't embarrass yourself, just give the gun to them," Lin Fan said with a smile.
"What are you all standing there for? Shoot him!" Ji Shangde roared.
Gunfire erupted continuously, with dozens of bullets hurtling towards Lin Fan.
Lin Fan held his breath and dodged bullets as he walked forward, taking two steps at a time, and instantly arrived in front of Ji Shangde.
The bodyguards were so frightened by Lin Fan's extraordinary agility that they stopped firing and watched helplessly as he spoke to his boss.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" Lin Fan patted Ji Shangde's cheek.
Ji Shangde suddenly realized that what Fang Yixiao said might be true, but even so, in his eyes Lin Fan was a good-for-nothing.
No matter how skilled you are, it's useless if you have no money or power!
"You're a piece of trash, all skills, but so what? You're still a gigolo!" Ji Shangde smirked. "Do you have money? Do you have power? In this society, those are the things that matter! Without them, you'll never be able to hold your head high!"
"You're nothing more than a street performer! I, Ji Shangde, can easily outmaneuver you!"
Lin Fan shook his head and pointed behind Ji Shangde: "Your son is in this state, and you're still being stubborn?"
Ji Shangde turned around abruptly and found Ji Wuque crouching in the corner, clutching his neck and curled up in a ball, not daring to move.
His face turned pale.
"Son!" Ji Shangde rushed to Ji Wuque's side to check on him.
He then shouted at the bodyguard, "Why hasn't the ambulance arrived yet!"
"Boss, this is in the far suburbs, the ambulance won't be here anytime soon—" The bodyguard's voice was full of helplessness.
"The outskirts of the city, huh? You could die and no one would even notice," Lin Fan sneered.
Upon hearing this, the bodyguards involuntarily took a few steps back, trembling with fear.
"Don't worry, I'm a law-abiding citizen, I won't do anything to you."
Lin Fan waved his hand and strode away.
As they reached the factory gate, Lin Fan turned back to Ji Shangde and coldly said, "I'll only allow you to do this once!"
