Chapter 143: A Game with Hong Wenyan!

Huh?

Upon hearing that name, Lin Yuan froze for a moment?

That name is somewhat unfamiliar.

But it also faintly rings a bell??

Hong Wenyan?

Wait?!

K Group, Hong Wenyan?!

Lin Yuan suddenly realized—this woman is the second-in-command of the K Group?! Hong Wuquan's sister, Hong Wenyan?!

A few days ago, it was this woman who was hunting down Lin Yuan and Zhao Yuyan!

That forced Lin Yuan and Zhao Yuyan to flee to Yuezhou Cheng……

I never expected Hong Wenyan to show up again at this moment?!

Lin Yuan's heart pounded with shock—this… he remembered Zhao Yuyan saying her father had already settled the matter!

Why would Hong Wenyan appear here?! And she even stopped Lin Yuan.

Inside the Land Rover, upon hearing the title '24K,' Yuan Hongli's face also changed sharply.

K Group?

Is it the infamous K Group of Hangcheng's gray-market scene??

Although the K Group is a gray-market outfit, it mixes with the underworld.

But the group's fame has long spread throughout Hangcheng.

In the jianghu, everyone knows of it.

However, news about the K Group's leader is rarely exposed in the jianghu.

To this day, many in Hangcheng still don't know who is in charge of the K Group?

Everyone only knows that the founder of the K Group bears the surname Hong.

And this woman before us also bears the surname Hong??

Yuan Hongli does not know Hong Wenyan.

But this woman's surname Hong makes it quite special.

Yuan Hongli, uncertain and doubtful, wanted to get out and inquire about the situation.

As a result, Lin Yuan grabbed her and signaled her not to get out.

Outside the Land Rover, with so many people surrounding us, rashly getting out would be dangerous.

"Miss Hong, may I ask why you suddenly stopped my car? Is there something you need?" Yuan Hongli asked.

Hong Wenyan's icy gaze swept over Yuan Hongli, saying, "It's none of your business; I'm looking for him."

Yuan Hongli pointed to the passenger seat where Lin Yuan sat.

Yuan Hongli looked at Lin Yuan with a face full of suspicion??

"What's this woman's background? What do you have with her? She looks tough to deal with," Yuan Hongli turned to ask Lin Yuan.

"Um, she's the second-in-command of the K Group, Hong Wenyan. She's looking for me; maybe it's a private matter, Manager Yuan. I'll go handle it. Wait in the car." Lin Yuan said, about to open the door.

Upon hearing that, Yuan Hongli's pretty face went blank?

This guy Lin Yuan actually knows the K Group's second-in-command??

Looks like I need to reassess Lin Yuan's identity…

"You actually know the K Group's second-in-command?" Yuan Hongli asked in shock.

"Just an accident." Lin Yuan explained embarrassedly.

Such an 'acquaintance'—better not have it.

Too bad trouble has come knocking; Lin Yuan can only deal with it.

"Hey Manager Yuan, if anything happens later, don't mind me… just drive off immediately, got it?" Lin Yuan lowered his voice, leaning close to Yuan Hongli's ear and whispered.

Hearing that, Yuan Hongli's face tightened.

This? This woman comes with ill intent.

Lin Yuan opened the door and stepped out, saying, "Miss Hong, wasn't our previous misunderstanding already cleared? I recall Zhao Yuyan's father came to see you, right?"

Lin Yuan didn't want to cause trouble, so he could only bring up Zhao Yuyan's father.

"Come over, stand before me." Hong Wenyan's icy eyes fixed on him.

Lin Yuan said warily, "Miss Hong, are you still looking for trouble with me? I'm a person from the Goddess Bar…"

Hong Wenyan cut him off directly: "The Goddess doesn't care about you; I asked her before coming after you. She's abandoned you."

Lin Yuan: "..."

"Come over, I won't say it again." Hong Wenyan said coldly.

At that moment, the thugs around slowly pulled out their switchblades.

Seeing that these people actually had knives, inside the Land Rover Yuan Hongli's face turned pale.

This, Lin Yuan won't get hurt, will he?

Lin Yuan, helpless, could only walk up to Hong Wenyan.

The two were one meter apart.

"Not close enough, step nearer." Hong Wenyan said coldly.

Lin Yuan, helpless, took another step forward.

At this point, he was practically zero distance from Hong Wenyan.

The two stared at each other, woodenly.

Lin Yuan finally saw Hong Wenyan's exquisite face clearly.

Her skin was truly good, flawless and white like mutton-fat jade, very smooth.

It was clear she wore no foundation, just pure natural beauty, already beautiful to this extent.

Moreover, her eyes were also large; although icy and gorgeous, they could not hide her stunning gaze.

Her eyelashes were also long, slightly curled, making her even more alluring.

The finishing touch was still Hong Wenyan's red lips.

Tender red lips, like cherries.

This is a standard cherry-small mouth.

A layer of light lipstick was applied to Hong Wenyan's red lips, making her look icy and charming.

A breeze blew, lifting Hong Wenyan's long hair lightly.

A pleasant hair fragrance wafted over, and Lin Yuan smelled her scent.

But just then, Hong Wenyan suddenly raised her hand and slapped at Lin Yuan.

Damn! Lin Yuan finally realized why this woman had him come so close.

Turns out it was to slap him!

Lin Yuan stepped back, directly avoiding Hong Wenyan's slap.

That slap hit nothing but air.

"Still dare to dodge?" Hong Wenyan narrowed her beautiful eyes, a chill sweeping over.

"Miss Hong, what do you mean? Isn't our matter already settled? Zhao Yuyan's father has paid compensation; what more do you want?" Lin Yuan asked coldly.

Hong Wenyan sneered, "Zhaojun did pay, but it's one thing for one thing. I also promised Zhaojun I'd let you go, but you must apologize to my brother."

Hong Wenyan said coldly, she snapped her fingers.

Inside the BMW, a man in a sharp suit stepped out.

It was Hong Wenyan's brother, Hong Wuquan.

Only Hong Wuquan's right wrist was still wrapped in bandages.

Last time Lin Yuan dislocated his wrist joint, he still has sequelae; his wrist hasn't recovered.

"Heh, you bastard, didn't expect you'd fall into my hands?" Hong Wuquan said with a cold smile, looking down at Lin Yuan.

"You bastard, either kneel and apologize, kowtow to me, and I might let you go if I'm in a good mood. Or..." Hong Wuquan said sarcastically.

Just then, the Range Rover door opened, and Yuan Hongli could no longer stand by.

She stepped forward and said, "Miss Hong, I know you're in the gray market, but I advise you not to cause trouble! I've called the police; they'll be here in ten minutes. You'd better calm down."

Hong Wenyan's eyes turned to look at Yuan Hongli.

"Oh? Calling the police? Heh..." Hong Wenyan smiled, amused.

"Smack!" Hong Wenyan suddenly raised her hand and slapped Yuan Hongli across the face.

Yuan Hongli couldn't dodge in time; a bright red palm print instantly appeared on her left cheek.

Her phone was also snatched away by Hong Wenyan.

"Crack!" Hong Wenyan threw her iPhone to the ground and crushed it with her high heel.

"This has nothing to do with you; why interfere, you unrelated woman?" Hong Wenyan said sarcastically.

Yuan Hongli covered her painful face, somewhat disbelieving.

She hadn't expected this woman surnamed Hong to actually resort to violence.

"You..." Yuan Hongli was about to speak.

But suddenly a figure flashed forward—it was Lin Yuan!

"Smack...!" Another crisp slap rang out!

But this time, the one slapped was Hong Wenyan!

Exactly!

Hong Wenyan got slapped!

And the one who did it was none other than Lin Yuan, who had just rushed forward!

Lin Yuan watched helplessly as Yuan Hongli got slapped.

How could Lin Yuan let Manager Yuan be bullied?

Furious, Lin Yuan rushed forward with lightning speed and backhanded Hong Wenyan with a slap!

Hong Wenyan staggered from the slap, stepping back two paces.

Hong Wenyan's hair was slightly disheveled; she covered her painful cheek in disbelief.

"You dare hit me?" Hong Wenyan's voice was ice-cold.

"Fuck! You bastard! Dare touch my sister?! What are you waiting for? Attack!" Hong Wuquan finally exploded, shouting.

Hong Wenyan also coldly ordered, "Break his dog legs."

Instantly, a gang of thugs surged forward from all sides!

Glistening throwing knives were swung.

Lin Yuan grabbed Yuan Hongli and pulled her behind him.

Before him, a throwing knife slashed at Lin Yuan's shoulder.

These people were really going for the kill!

Lin Yuan countered with a Bone-Dislocation Technique!

"Crack!" That thug's joint was directly dislocated!

Lin Yuan seized the attacker's knife and lunged forward with a sturdy step!

His target is Hong Wenyan!

Hong Wenyan's beautiful eyes widened; she hadn't expected…… Lin Yuan, this bastard, actually dared to rush at her?!

Hong Wenyan flipped her right hand, and a sharp dagger appeared in her palm.

"Clang clang clang……!" Hong Wenyan struck out fiercely. She stabbed him several times.

Every stab aimed straight at a vital point!

But all of her attacks were blocked by Lin Yuan with his knife.

In the blink of an eye, Lin Yuan reversed his grip, seized Hong Wenyan's throat, and took her hostage.

"Miss Hong, tell your people to step back, or I'll slit your throat." Lin Yuan pressed the blade against her neck.

Swish! At that moment, all the thugs present turned pale.

Yuan Hongli was already stunned by what she saw before her eyes.

Although she had seen all kinds of storms in the business world, this was the first time she had ever witnessed such a naked, real‑blade fight.

"You brat, looking to die?! Let Miss go right now, or I'll tear you apart!" The Hong Family thugs all shouted in fury.

Hong Wuquan also shouted angrily, "You dog‑bastard! Do you know who you're holding hostage?! Release my sister immediately, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Lin Yuan, however, kept holding Hong Wenyan and refused to let go.

"Lin Yuan, your courage is indeed great, but you must know who you are holding hostage? Have you considered how serious the consequences of holding me would be?" Hong Wenyan reminded him in an icy voice.

"Miss Hong, I don't want to be enemies with your Hong Family. Tonight you just want my apology, right? I can apologize. But I have a precondition." Lin Yuan, still holding Hong Wenyan, said coldly.

"What precondition?" Hong Wenyan countered.

"You just slapped Manager Yuan and smashed her phone. I want you to apologize to Manager Yuan first and compensate her for the phone!" Lin Yuan said coldly.
