Chapter 266: You dare to kill me?

"Ugh…… bastard, let me out……" Hong Wenyan struggled hard, tore off the tape on her mouth, she cursed angrily!

She is the precious miss of the mighty K Group!

When has she ever been so humiliated before?

She was actually locked up in a dog cage?!

Hong Wenyan was so angry she was about to break down!

But Lin Yuan didn't bother with her at all.

"Help…… help!" Hong Wenyan, in panic, could only shout for help!

Unimaginable, she, such a precious miss, is now completely out of options, only able to shout for help! Hope to draw attention from other residents outside.

Lin Yuan grew angry, he opened the dog cage, directly sealed Hong Wenyan's mouth again with tape, and also bound her hands and feet to the cage, preventing her from moving.

It was already 8 a. m.

Lin Yuan was somewhat at a loss, he picked up his phone and called An Yunxi.

"Hello…… why are you calling me so early in the morning…… huh……" From the other end came a lazy, tired voice, obviously the sound of a light stretch.

An Yunxi was woken from sleep by the phone.

"An Sis, sorry to bother you so early, I have something here, I don't know how to handle it, I want to ask for your opinion." Lin Yuan said while holding the phone.

On the other end, An Yunxi lazily asked, "What's the matter? You can't handle it yourself?"

"Well, I've captured someone, she has a bit of background, I want to ask you, how should I deal with her appropriately?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Who?" An Yunxi asked lightly on the other end.

"Hong Wenyan of the K Group." Lin Yuan replied carefully.

"Who did you say?!" On the other end, An Yunxi was fully awake, her voice suddenly rose several decibels!

"Hong Wenyan, she tried to assassinate me when I got off work in the early morning…… I subdued her and now I have her detained at home. An Sis, how should I deal with her appropriately?" Lin Yuan asked while holding the phone.

On the other end, An Yunxi fell silent.

After a long while, she finally replied anxiously: "Wait for me! I'm coming!"

……

Half an hour later, a hurried doorbell rang outside the single-occupancy apartment.

Lin Yuan hurried over to open the door.

An Yunxi wore a white dress, her black long hair somewhat messy, her pretty face bare of makeup, appearing naturally at Lin Yuan's doorstep.

Yet her natural look was still stunningly beautiful; she had clearly just gotten out of bed, without washing up, and rushed to Lin Yuan's place.

An Yunxi kicked off her high heels and walked straight into Lin Yuan's home.

"Where is Hong Wenyan?" An Yunxi asked anxiously after entering the house.

"There, in the cage." Lin Yuan pointed to the dog cage beside him.

An Yunxi's beautiful eyes swept over the cage in shock.

Even An Yunxi was shocked.

This……

Hong Wenyan's whole body was bound with tape, and then she was actually locked in a large dog cage?!

This?!

"You…… you put her in a dog cage??" An Yunxi's voice sounded dazed, she asked in shock.

"Yeah, this woman is too annoying, so I locked her in the dog cage to prevent her escape." Lin Yuan said seriously.

An Yunxi: ……

She knew Lin Yuan was tough, but she didn't expect him to be this tough, exceeding her imagination.

Directly imprisoning Hong Wenyan in a dog cage?

Looking across all of Jiangnan, perhaps only Lin Yuan would dare to do such a thing.

"Wait a moment, I need to call the boss for consultation." An Yunxi was also at a loss.

This is Hong Wenyan! The precious miss of the K Group.

This matter is too big.

An Yunxi didn't dare to make a decision.

She went to the kitchen and called the boss to report the situation.

On the other end, the boss lady, Phoenix God, hearing the report, was also dazed……

This……

Kidnapping Hong Wenyan?

This guy Lin Yuan really dared to do it!

After a long while, An Yunxi finally hung up and walked out of the kitchen.

"The boss said, Hong Wenyan brought it on herself; since she's in your hands, you can deal with her as you wish. However, it's best not to kill her." An Yunxi said with a complex expression.

Lin Yuan was taken aback, "Then specifically, how should we handle it? An Sis, give me a suggestion."

Lin Yuan truly didn't know how to deal with this woman.

Killing her isn't right, not killing her isn't right either.

An Yunxi looked at the woman detained in the dog cage.

She suddenly looked at Lin Yuan and said, "Since she's already been caught by you, let's take the opportunity to extort her heavily."

Saying that, An Yunxi walked to the cage and spoke coldly, "Hong Wenyan, I've heard your K Group has two newly built foreign trade factories; if you agree to transfer those two factories to our Divine Phoenix Group, then you may go. If you agree, just nod."

In the cage, Hong Wenyan's mouth was sealed with tape, unable to speak.

She could only glare at An Yunxi with her beautiful eyes full of hatred.

She didn't nod, her eyes glaring angrily.

Obviously, she did not agree.

Seeing she was willing to nod, An Yunxi reached out and ripped the seal from her mouth.

"Hong Wenyan, are you really thinking it over? Just hand over the two foreign‑trade factories and I'll let you leave." An Yunxi said softly.

"An Yunxi! If you've got the guts, kill me! Don't think you can profit from using me—do you dare kill me?!" Hong Wenyan, now able to speak after the seal was ripped off, shouted.

"Oh, you still have quite a temper?" An Yunxi narrowed her beautiful eyes, the corner of her red lips curling with a cold arc, "Since you won't comply, then so be it. Let's see how long you can hold out."

"An Yunxi! If you've got the guts, kill me! Do you dare kill me?! If you wait for me to get out, my 24K Group will chop you into pieces……mmph……" Hong Wenyan shouted angrily, but before she could finish, tape was slapped over her mouth again.

An Yunxi resealed her mouth.

"Alright, let's put her under soft confinement for now. See how long she can hold out." An Yunxi said as she stood up.

"Huh? How long should we lock her up?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Until she gives in." An Yunxi said lightly, "I'm tired, I'm going back to sleep. Keep in touch."

Saying that, An Yunxi put on her high heels and left……

Only Lin Yuan remained, staring blankly at the woman in the dog cage.

This…… really is helpless.

……

By now it was already 9 a. m.; Lin Yuan, helpless, could only imprison Hong Wenyan in the dog cage and then rushed to the office for work.

One morning, Lin Yuan was working at the Su Group.

Suddenly, the front‑desk girl rushed into Lin Yuan's office in a panic.

"Lin Assistant! Downstairs, downstairs suddenly a large crowd arrived! They're shouting they want to find you!" the girl reported in a panicked voice.

Lin Yuan's expression changed upon hearing that.

He hurried downstairs.

He saw that in front of the Su Group building, a dozen or so BMW sedans were parked.

A group of suited bodyguards stood on either side of the motorcade, their killing intent surging!

At that moment, the door of a BMW sedan opened and a middle‑aged man in a sharp suit stepped out slowly.

The middle‑aged man's face was as cold as ice, and he walked step by step to stand before Lin Yuan.

"Are you Lin Yuan?"

"It's me. Who are you?" Lin Yuan countered.

"Presumptuous! You don't even bow when you see our Director Hong?!" the bodyguards flanking the middle‑aged man shouted.

Lin Yuan suddenly lifted his hand in a flash!

A silver needle shot out explosively!

"Pfft!" The silver needle struck the knee of the shouting bodyguard directly.

That bodyguard's knee gave way and he collapsed straight to the ground.

The direction he fell in was exactly toward Lin Yuan.

It was as if he were bowing to Lin Yuan.

"Why bother with such a grand salute when you see me?" Lin Yuan glanced at that bodyguard and said coldly mockingly.

His move was meant to intimidate this group of bodyguards!

Lin Yuan knew these bodyguards might be armed, so he deliberately revealed his silver‑needle hidden weapon in an attempt to intimidate them.

"You're asking for death!" countless bodyguards around surged forward, on the verge of a clash!

The middle‑aged man waved his hand, driving all the bodyguards back.

"I am Hong Bai Tian, Chairman of the 24K Group." the middle‑aged man said, his voice icy cold.

He pulled a gold‑foil business card from his pocket and handed it to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan took the card and saw it was actually made of pure 24K gold.

The card felt heavy, as if it could fetch a good price.

"This card is worth quite a bit," Lin Yuan said.

"Is my daughter, Hong Wenyan, in your hands?" Hong Bai Tian asked in a gloomy tone.

"Yes." Lin Yuan didn't deny it, simply admitting it outright.

Hong Bai Tian's eyes narrowed sharply as he asked, "Is my daughter still alive?"

"For now she's still alive, but I can't guarantee what will happen later." Lin Yuan replied without hesitation.

Hong Bai Tian's pupils contracted suddenly, a wave of icy killing intent surging forth!

"You dare seize my daughter—are you really not afraid of death?"

Lin Yuan shrugged, fearless, and replied, "It's karma—your daughter deliberately shot me, trying to silence me. The assassination failed, and I ended up capturing her. Who's to blame? I didn't kill her; that's already merciful of me."

Behind Hong Bai Tian, a subordinate exploded in anger, "You damn dog, you're asking for death!"

As he spoke, he flashed a black pistol from his clothing pocket!

"Whoosh!" But Lin Yuan lifted his hand in a flash again, and another silver needle shot out!

"Pfft!" The silver needle pierced straight into that bodyguard's wrist.

"Ah!" The bodyguard screamed, his wrist burning with pain, and the pistol dropped to the ground.

"Who's the dog scum?!" Lin Yuan shouted angrily, then raised his hand and fired another silver needle from his palm!

"Pfft!" This silver needle struck the bodyguard's knee directly!

The bodyguard screamed and collapsed straight to the ground!

The bodyguard felt as if ants were tearing at his whole body, excruciating pain, and he kept screaming while kneeling on the ground!

All the bodyguards present were stunned!

"Don't even think about drawing your guns; my hidden weapon, the Silver Needle, is no slower than your pistol bullets. Before you draw, I'll kill your Chairman first. After all, he's only two meters away from me, well within the range of my hidden weapon." Lin Yuan glanced around at the group of bodyguards and said coldly.

Lin Yuan withdrew his gaze, staring at Hong Bai Tian, who was within arm's reach.

Hong Bai Tian's pupils contracted.

The young man before him gave him an unprecedented sense of pressure.

This was something Hong Bai Tian, who had wandered the martial world for decades, had never encountered before.

How could a young man in his twenties possess such intimidating presence?

"Young man, I have to admit, you have guts. But have you considered what would happen to you if I died? You, dare to kill me?" Hong Bai Tian said, and actually stepped forward in his leather shoes.

He even deliberately shortened the distance between himself and Lin Yuan!

Meanwhile, the bodyguards around them had secretly slipped their hands into the inner lining of their suits, ready to draw their guns.
