Chapter 285: Deterrence

Pang Yong's head tilted back sharply, and blood mixed with a large tooth flew out of his mouth.

Pang Yong hadn't expected Zhou Andong to dare hit him. This slap instantly made him lose his vision and hearing. He couldn't see or hear anything, and his brain was exploding with a *rumbling* sound like thunder.

"Boss!"

"Big Brother!"

"Damn you!"

"I'll kill you!"

"Chop him up!"

Pang Yong's men clamored. Zhou Andong looked at them with contempt, raised his foot, and kicked Pang Yong hard in the stomach.

"Bang!"

Pang Yong hadn't recovered yet when he felt his stomach being hit hard, as if by a car traveling at high speed.

Although Zhou Andong only ran in the morning and hadn't exercised systematically for a long time, this kick was still very heavy. Pang Yong let out a muffled groan, and his body flew backward.

"Big Brother!"

"Big Brother!"

The people behind reached out to catch him, but missed, and several were knocked down.

A few others were about to help Pang Yong up when Zhou Andong reached out, grabbed the shotgun in Yao Jun's hand, stepped forward, and shoved the pitch-black gun barrel into Pang Yong's mouth. Blood dripped down from the corners of Pang Yong's mouth.

No one dared to move again. This bunch of guys were all desperadoes who had never cared about anyone else's life. But today, they truly felt the despair and helplessness of the innocent people they had harmed.

"Wouldn't it be better to just be your local tyrant in Fengjing? Hmm?" Zhou Andong bent over, looking down at Pang Yong from above.

Pang Yong slowly recovered, his blood-red eyes filled with murderous intent, and he mumbled something, but it was unclear.

Zhou Andong licked his somewhat dry lips with his tongue. He took the gun out of Pang Yong's mouth and pointed it at his head again: "Kneel down and apologize to my sister. This is the only thing you can do for your son."

Pang Yong endured the severe pain in his body, turned over, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to the van without hesitation. He opened his mouth, about to speak, but a mouthful of blood foam spat out, containing two more teeth.

"Dui bu li, dui bu li, dui bu li!" (Sorry, sorry, sorry!) Because his mouth was injured and he was missing teeth, his speech was unclear.

Zhou Andong smiled and tapped Pang Yong's head with the gun: "You see how good it is to be alive, why do you have to seek death?"

"Wo cuo le!" (I was wrong!) Pang Yong's eyes could kill, but for the sake of his wife and child, he still had to bow his head and admit his mistake honestly.

"Admitting your mistake is fine. It's only if you know you're wrong but refuse to admit it that you're truly beyond saving." Zhou Andong moved the gun barrel away and suddenly pulled the trigger at a guy holding a short gun nearby.

"Bang!"

The dull gunshot rang through the night sky. A mist of blood erupted from the guy's knee, and his kneecap was shattered by the bullet. His lower leg flew off, his body tilted, and he fell to the ground with a *thump*.

A shrill scream rang out. The guy clutched his bloody, mangled broken leg, rolling back and forth and howling.

Zhou Andong threw the gun to the ground: "You were the one shouting the loudest just now. If you have the guts, fire and kill me; otherwise, why the hell are you shouting?"

The scene was silent. No one dared to clamor anymore. One by one, they looked at Zhou Andong, their eyes actually showing some fear.

Zhou Andong looked at Pang Yong: "I have always been law-abiding and convinced people with virtue. Since you have admitted your mistake, I will give your wife and child a chance to live."

Law-abiding? Pang Yong's men, hearing Zhou Andong's words, looked at their brother who had his leg broken and was still wailing, and then looked at Four-Eyes who was still kneeling there. Damn it, you call this law-abiding?

Zhou Andong pointed at Long Hair: "You, come with me to Jiangzhou and bring the person back."

Long Hair's body shuddered uncontrollably. Why did you pick me? Thinking of the threats he had made to Zhou Andong just now, he felt like crying.

Zhou Andong's bloody methods had truly shocked these people. At least for the time being, they were truly a bit afraid of Zhou Andong.

Zhou Andong turned and was about to take a step when he suddenly saw the dwarf hiding behind the crowd, a smirk appearing at the corner of his mouth: "And you, stop hiding, damn it. That's right, you, come with me to Jiangzhou."

The dwarf wanted to open his mouth to say he wouldn't go, but seeing dozens of eyes looking at him, his scalp tingled, and he didn't have the guts to say what was in his heart.

Zhou Andong got into the car, Yao Jun followed, and then with a *bang*, the car door was pulled shut.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Zhou Anqin had been terrified by the screams outside. She wanted to get out of the car, but Xu Ziwai wouldn't let her, and the glass was covered with newspaper, so she couldn't see anything, crying anxiously.

Zhou Andong rubbed Zhou Anqin's hair and said dotingly: "Since you were little, when have you ever seen Brother lose a fight?"

Zhou Anqin thought about it, and it was true. She broke into a smile through her tears and sat beside Zhou Andong.

"Waizi, let's go!" Zhou Andong said, then took out a cigarette and lit it.

Although he had captured Pang Yong's wife and child, Pang Yong's people were all desperadoes. If he didn't use thunderous means to deter them, they would never submit, and today, the four of them might have completely disappeared from the world.

So he didn't hesitate to chop off Four-Eyes' arm and use a gun to break a guy's leg, just to warn Pang Yong and his men: I hit you, and you have to stand at attention. If you dare to move, don't even think about Pang Yong's wife and son living.

Zhou Andong took a deep puff of the cigarette, then let out a long breath, leaned back, and closed his eyes. This hurdle was finally passed.

Xu Ziwai returned to the front and started the car: "Factory Director, are we just letting them go like this?"

Zhou Andong closed his eyes and muttered: "Waizi, let me tell you, trash like Pang Yong is not worth dying for. But we are going to wear suits in the future. Killing him not only dirties our hands but also leaves stains on our lives and hidden dangers for the future. It's not worth it."

Zhou Andong knew the future situation. If he really killed Pang Yong today, it would be refreshing and satisfying, but who could guarantee that no one would dig up this matter in the future?

Injuring someone and killing someone are two different concepts. Unless he goes abroad and changes his nationality, it's hard to avoid being liquidated. No matter how big an empire he builds, it could all be destroyed.

Even if he successfully marries Jian Qiu and has the Jian family protecting him, the Jian family is also full of factions.

Holding such a big handle in their hands, who could guarantee that no one would covet his family business and target him?

As the saying goes, "The innocent man is innocent, but his treasure makes him a criminal." One must guard against others.

Yao Jun also lit a cigarette, leaned against the back of the chair, looked up, took a deep breath, and looked at the smoke that was slowly rising and constantly changing shape, saying softly.

"You beat and humiliated Pang Yong so much today, making him lose all face. He won't let it go; he will definitely become a big problem for us." ===== CHAPTER 286 =====
