Female Novel
Chapter 55
With a condescending smile, Chu Feng left Li Ziyang shaken and terrified, then gave Yun Tao a fleetingglance as he walked past Li Ziyang that caused him a terror so great that he nearly passed out.
“No, please! I’m a bastard, I’m a nobody. Please spare me, let me live!” Yun Tao kowtowed severaltimes with shaky legs, then yelled through snot, tears and whatever musty liquid was trailing down hispants. “An animal like me is not fit to be your lowliest servant. It’ll only sully your hands to kill me…”
Chu Feng did not seem to react even when he strode past him; throughout the whole ordeal, he hadn’tspared Yun Tao a single glance.
“Dismissed!” Luo Gang yelled. With that command, all three thousand elite soldiers left the scene asone, right behind Chu Feng.
“Whew! That was close, that was too close.” Yun Tao breathed heavy sighs of relief, as if he’d justsurvived a near-death experience.
The smile on his face, though, froze after just a few seconds and Yun Tao became dejected andhumiliated; he’d been terrified of Chu Feng’s repercussions, but the man hadn’t even looked at him theentire time. novelbin
It was just like Chu Feng said before he came in here, that he was destined to be someone else’sservant, and fit to be nothing more than their dog! So why would an all-powerful big shot like him evenbother with a dog like Yun Tao? Until Chu Feng’s departure, the atmosphere had been tense for a fulltwo minutes, and now that tension was finally released.
“Ahhh!” At this moment, Li Ziyang finally let out a pained wail after holding it in for so long. It was as if
he was yelling out the pain in his hands and face, his suffering, his pity and rage all at once. Yun Taoand the others were tactful enough to not interrupt him.
“Young Master Li, l-look!” The severely injured Hei Hu got up and pointed downstairs, wearing a look ofdisbelief.
When Li Ziyang followed his gaze, he noticed that the Lincoln limousine with the dragon head motifwas cruising toward the entrance of his tea house. Immediately after that, the car’s door opened andChu Feng stepped right inside!
How can this be? Li Ziyang and Hei Hu found themselves dumbfounded in the blink of an eye, as ifthey’d been struck by lightning.
This car that possessed such an intimidating aura, that struck fear into their hearts, was here for ChuFeng? This man clearly was no ordinary general, because the usage of that dragon head motif byanyone except top officials and diplomats was a criminal offense, punishable by death! Chu Feng hadgot to be a three-star general at the very least, and a very decorated one at that!
Li Ziyang could feel his worldview crumbling around him, and berated himself with a mix of anger andguilt; if only he’d noticed earlier, then he wouldn’t have disrespected Chu Feng at all, let alone plananything diabolical on Yun Muqing. But alas, there was no cure for regret.
Just then, Li Ziyang’s head jerked up as if he’d just remembered something. Then, he snapped, “Noneof you speak of what happened today! Mr. Chu’s identity must be kept secret, and I will wipe out thefamilies of anyone who reveals it. Understood?!”
This wasn’t just out of consideration for the dignity and honor of the Li family, but also because he
really didn’t want to anger this all-powerful, godlike Chu Feng. A man with such power could haveanything he wanted anywhere he went in the country, but Chu Feng’s low profile made it clear that hedidn’t want his identity revealed. Perhaps he was even carrying out a top-secret mission, so if his menblabbed about Chu Feng and ruined his business, then it wouldn’t be just an offense punishable bydeath, but entire clans might be wiped out if this happened!
Yun Tao and the others fell dead silent and hastily nodded, “Understood, understood.”
Meanwhile, Chu Feng had already left the Elegant Pavilion Tea House with Luo Gang and his dozenmilitary trucks following close behind. After a while, the three thousand brave soldiers arrived at a placewith an eye-catching view of the horizon. Chu Feng had chosen this place so as not to disrupt the livesof Jiangling’s citizens, so this was where he saluted the soldiers and thanked them, “I, Chu Feng,humbly thank my brothers in arms of the Jiangling Theater Command for offering me your assistancetoday. Next time, I’ll personally visit you all and buy everyone drinks until we pass out.”
“Thank you, Dragon Head!”
