Chapter 241: Shave‑Off as a Substitute for Beheading

Back at the bar, when Chen Mo went upstairs, he casually took a bottle of beer from the waiter.

Back in the office, Chen Mo ripped off his coat, tossed it to Liu Li Li, then pulled the bottle cap off with his bare hands and downed the whole bottle in one go.

"Huh..."

The icy beer slid down his throat into his stomach, barely suppressing the fire inside Chen Mo.

Liu Li Li hung Chen Mo's coat properly, moved behind him, and gave his shoulders a squeeze.

"Mo Ge, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"It's nothing, just irritated by a bunch of undead bastards; later just help me cool down properly."

Saying that, Chen Mo reached back and pinched Liu Li Li's pert buttocks.

"Ugh!" Liu Li Li raised her hand, swatted Chen Mo's salty pig hand away, and walked out of the office.

"I'll go find Ruby to get ready; your anger is so intense today, I can't calm it down alone."

"First, call Shen Guodong over; I have a task to assign to him."

"Alright."

A few minutes later, Shen Guodong arrived at Chen Mo's office.

"Mo Ge, you need something?"

Chen Mo said coldly, "Find A Sheng and the others; tonight go and eliminate that old thing, Bai Tou Weng."

"Last time we let that old thing get away, and today it jumps out again looking for death."

Just then, the phone on Chen Mo's desk rang.

Shen Guodong took the phone and handed it to Chen Mo.

Chen Mo took the phone and answered it.

"Who is this?"

"A Mo, it's me!" Thirteen Sister's voice came through the phone.

Chen Mo recognized the voice as Thirteen Sister and immediately guessed the purpose of her call.

He furrowed his brow, raised his hand to signal Shen Guodong, who was about to leave the office, to stay.

"Sister, what instructions do you have for me?"

"A Mo, are you planning to take down Bai Tou Weng?"

Chen Mo was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Yes. Sister, you want me to spare him?"

"There's no way. When I first started hustling, he took good care of me. He just called me, pleading for mercy; after all these years of friendship, I really can't refuse."

"How about you save face for me and let him off this time?"

"If he bothers you again next time, go ahead and strike; I won't say a word. How does that sound?"

Hearing Thirteen Sister say that, Chen Mo replied eagerly, "Fine, I'll definitely give you face, Sister; this time I won't kill him."

After hanging up, Shen Guodong asked, "Mo Ge, you're just sparing Bai Tou Weng like that?"

Chen Mo let out a light sigh and said, "Thirteen Sister's face must be given."

"But I said today I'd take down Bai Tou Weng; if I do nothing, they'd think I only talk empty words."

After pondering repeatedly, Chen Mo came up with an idea.

"Then you should go find A Sheng and the others, and have them give Bai Tou Weng a shave‑off as a substitute for beheading."

"Shave‑off as a substitute for beheading?" Shen Guodong looked bewildered, not understanding the meaning.

"Damn, haven't read the Three Kingdoms? You don't even know 'shave‑off as a substitute for beheading'?"

"Make them shave all of Bai Tou Weng's hair for me, and, hmm, shave his eyebrows too; that little bit doesn't matter!"

"Huh?"

Shen Guodong wore a stunned expression, doubting he had heard correctly.

If you shave Bai Tou Weng's hair and eyebrows completely, how will he face anyone?

That would hurt him more than killing him!

"What are you talking about, hurry up and go. I only promised Thirteen Sister not to kill him, I didn't say not to punish him."

"Got it."

After confirming he hadn't misheard, Shen Guodong folded away his stunned expression, stuck out a big grin, and left Chen Mo's office.

A few minutes later, Liu Li Li and Ruby came in, both having changed into matching tight cheongsams.

Seeing this, Chen Mo's eyes lit up; he grabbed the two and headed to the lounge to cool off.

Late night, Yuen Long district, outside Bai Tou Weng's villa.

Seven silhouettes silently crept along the wall corner and reached the villa's main gate.

Yep, seven people.

Tian Yang Sheng's six brothers and Shen Guodong were all present.

Originally this didn't require so many people.

Even to take down Bai Tou Weng, Tian Yang Sheng and Tian Yang Yi's two brothers would have been enough.

But shaving Bai Tou Weng's hair, now that's an interesting thing!

The other brothers learned of it; could they not come?

Shen Guodong also knew; could he not take part?

After Bai Tou Weng returns home tonight, he'll be trembling with fear.

Besides Ke Le and A Bao, Jin Mao Hu Sha Cheng also sent many underlings to surround the villa with three inner layers and three outer layers, fearing Chen Mo's crew would show up.

Later, after receiving Thirteen Sister's reply and learning that Chen Mo agreed to spare him, they breathed a sigh of relief and withdrew most of the underlings.

The remaining guards, also aware of this news, thought nothing would happen and unconsciously relaxed.

Their relaxation gave Shen Guodong and the Tian Yang brothers a perfect opening.

The seven of them were already masters of skill, and the villa guards were lax, so slipping into the villa was like entering an uninhabited realm.

A few minutes later, Shen Guodong and the seven Tian Yang brothers easily knocked out all the villa's guards, including Ke Le, A Bao and Jin Mao Hu.

Bai Touweng had been sleeping soundly when a sudden cold wind blew by, and a rustling sound rang in his ears.

In his drowsy haze, Bai Touweng opened his eyes and suddenly saw several people standing by the bedside, and a huge terror surged in his heart.

Overcome with fear, Bai Touweng jolted upright, about to shout loudly.

"Come..."

Before he could finish the shout, Shen Guodong lunged to Bai Touweng's side and slashed his neck with a hand‑knife.

Bai Touweng's eyes rolled back as he fell backward.

"Guodong brother, did you kill him?"

Shen Guodong extended a finger and tested Bai Touweng's breath.

"He's not dead, just knocked out. Who's going to act?"

"I'll go!"

"I'll go!"

"I'll go!"

Each of the six Tian Yang brothers pulled a razor from his pocket, vying to shave Bai Touweng's hair.

Seeing the six men tangled in a scramble, Shen Guodong was speechless, turned and stood in front of them, pulling a razor from his own pocket.

"I'll do it myself then."

Tian Yang Sheng saw this, turned and walked out of the bedroom.

"Big brother, where are you going?"

"I'm going to shave the others..."

The remaining five brothers exchanged glances and quickly hurried after him.

There are still many people in the other rooms, one head per person, definitely enough to go around.

The next day, after the people in Bai Touweng's villa awoke, they were each like mournful widows.

"Ah—"

"Ah—"

This was not a scream of terror, but a roar of anger.

"Chen Mo, you have gone too far!!!"

Bai Touweng snatched a vase nearby and smashed it violently against the mirror in front of him.

Shameful humiliation!

Shameful humiliation!

Bai Touweng, after all, is the second‑in‑command of East Star and one of Gangdao's Triad Society Big Bosses.

Now, his whole smooth head has not a single hair.

Not a single one!

How will the people below view him!

How can he even go out!

Turning his head, he saw Ke Le, A Bao and Jin Mao Hu—no, now it's Wu Mao Hu—also shaved bald, and Bai Touweng's anger surged like a geyser!

"You bunch of useless trash, all are good‑for‑nothing! What do I raise you for, to eat!"

"You were supposed to protect me, but this is how you protect me!"

Bai Touweng kept venting his inner rage at his subordinates.

After venting, a wave of fear began.

If Chen Mo can have his hair shaved, he can also take his head off.

Fortunately, last night he promptly asked Shi San Mei for mercy, which saved his life. Otherwise, he would now be down there selling salted duck eggs.
