Chapitre 20: Are you also afraid of death?
The two hostesses cried in despair, struggling and casting pleading glances at everyone. But at this moment, no one would stand up for them. Everyone hung their heads low, hoping that the bodies of these two girls could appease the three fugitives and give them a chance to survive.
When the two girls' despairing gaze fell on Chen Liuhe, he seemed to hear their frantic pleas deep within. He sighed softly and stood up slowly.
"Brothers, I have a suggestion. Let's end this here, shall we?" Chen Liuhe scanned the three men indifferently. "You've forced people, you've vented your anger. Further turmoil won't benefit anyone. There's no need for such madness."
Although he felt contempt and disdain for these security guards and hostesses, teaching them a lesson would suffice. There was no need to subject them to torture. After all, he was the vice president of this club. Even if he didn't care about these people, he had to think about Qin Ruohan, the poor woman who still relied on a salary.
Seeing Chen Liuhe stepping forward, the three men were momentarily stunned. But soon, Scarface pointed his gun at Chen Liuhe fiercely. "Kid, are you asking for death by showing off your face like this?"
Chen Liuhe narrowed his eyes. "I'm just giving you advice. If you leave now, I guarantee that tonight's events will be forgotten. Once you step out of this room, no one will mention a word about it. You'll still be safe."
"Advice from you?" Scarface laughed in anger. Then his expression turned fiercer. "Are you crazy? Do you believe I'll shoot you right now?"
Chen Liuhe shook his head, ignoring the gun in front of him. "You hold the gun, but what others fear is not the gun, it's you. Unfortunately for you, I fear neither you nor the gun."
Before Scarface could say anything, the leader of the three stared at Chen Liuhe. "Brother, I'm not mistaken. You're no ordinary person. Right now, I'm a bit unsure because the look in your eyes just now sent chills down my spine. This seemingly ordinary guy harbors a fierce beast within."
"Listen to me, leave now. I've spoken up, so you won't be able to touch anyone here." Chen Liuhe changed from his previous cowardly stance to an extremely dominant one, which stunned the security guards and hostesses. Was this the same guy who was so submissive just now?
At this moment, a few people suddenly remembered Chen Liuhe and Huang Bai's forced entry into the club last night. Their faces lit up with excitement, and a strong desire for survival emerged in their eyes.
How could they forget about that incident? The seemingly unknown vice president in front of them was also a ruthless person!
The middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader silenced the two brothers beside him with his eyes. He stared at Chen Liuhe and said, "Brother, things have escalated tonight. It's unreasonable for us to back down just because of a few words from you. We're not easily frightened. It's better for you to listen to me, squat down obediently, let us have some fun, and I guarantee I won't lay a hand on you, allowing you to leave safely."
Chen Liuhe shook his head without hesitation. "Taking someone's money to resolve their disaster. You should understand this principle." He pointed to the two pale hostesses. "Since they are employees here, I have to protect them. At least in this club, they should be safe."
The leader's face sank at this moment, and there was a fierce light in his eyes. "We have guns. Why should we listen to you?!" Saying this, he took out a gun from his waist and shot a security guard nearby without hesitation.
Immediately, the room was filled with screams like those of a slaughtered pig, as the security guard's thigh was dyed red with blood.
"This is your arrogant end. There are eight bullets left in this gun. If you don't squat down obediently now, I'll shoot all eight bullets. As for how many people will die, that's up to you." The leader of the three said fiercely.
The room fell into extreme panic and chaos. Everyone's hearts were filled with complex emotions. Did they resent Chen Liuhe? Perhaps. They feared that his impulsiveness would lead the three fugitives to lose their minds and start a massacre.
But they also didn't want Chen Liuhe to be frightened. It would be best if Chen Liuhe could fight these three fugitives to the death. Only then could they perhaps escape in the chaos.
Chen Liuhe's eyes were cold. He shook his head silently. "You made the wrong choice. It's too late!" With that, he exerted force with his palm, causing the man to scream in pain. The hand holding the gun was twisted by Chen Liuhe, breaking it.
"Go to hell!" Scarface, who had been kicked away by Chen Liuhe, stood up, enduring the pain in his chest, and rushed over with a machete.
Chen Liuhe remained unmoved, casually flipping his palm, and the machete landed strangely in his hand. Chen Liuhe's movements were clean and neat. The machete sank deeply into the man's thigh.
"Ah!" Scarface screamed in pain, clutching his thigh and rolling on the ground.
At this moment, Chen Liuhe could only be described as ruthless. In the eyes of others, he was even more terrifying than the three fugitives, because his eyes were indifferent in a way that made one's scalp tingle.
It was an indifference towards life, towards all danger! Such a person was often capable of cruelty to an extent that made people shudder, because he could disregard everything!
"Your cruelty can only instill fear, but mine can leave a mark in your heart!" Chen Liuhe pinched the vertebrae at the back of the man's neck with two fingers, lifting him up. "With a light squeeze, you will close your eyes forever."
"Don't kill me!" The fear of death made him pale.
"So you're afraid of death too!" Chen Liuhe sneered.
"You can't kill me. We live on the edge, with no guarantee of tomorrow. It's a precarious life. But you, you'd better not play games with your life against us. If you kill me, someone will seek revenge for us. Even your family will suffer along with you," the man's voice trembled.
Chen Liuhe's eyes narrowed slightly, a curve appearing at the corner of his mouth. It seemed bright, but it made people's hearts skip a beat. The middle-aged man charging at him felt an extreme sense of danger.
"Threaten me? Perhaps you don't know, the thing I fear least is a threat." Chen Liuhe swung his arm, sending the middle-aged man flying several meters, crashing into a huge LCD screen and then rolling to the ground with the shards of glass.
Chen Liuhe ignored the groaning man lying in the glass and walked over to where Huang Bai was still grappling with the second-in-command.
Bending down, Chen Liuhe picked up a long shard of glass and gently pulled Huang Bai, who was caught in a frenzy, away. He then knelt on the neck of the second-in-command, pressing the man's arm against the ground. With the glass in his right hand, he pierced the man's wrist, pinning it firmly to the wooden floor.
The second-in-command let out a piercing scream, and everyone who saw this scene gasped, their hearts trembling.
Chen Liuhe looked at the man calmly and said in a flat, emotionless voice, "If you don't want to die, lie here quietly for me. Dare to struggle, and I guarantee the next piece of glass will be pinned to your throat!"
