Hearing this, he curled up on the ground, trembling uncontrollably. Fear gripped him; facing such a madman, no one could remain unafraid.
“Mom, Ouyang Zhirou, Lin Mu Xi! Hurry out! If you don’t come out soon, it’s going to get serious!”
Hu Yao's voice echoed throughout the venue. At that moment, security rushed in, with some maintaining order to prevent a stampede while others approached me and Hu Yao.
When they saw the person lying on the ground, even with their extensive experience in security, they felt that the violence was excessive. Looking at me being restrained by Hu Yao, even a child could tell that I was the one who had harmed someone, let alone them.
The priority now was to get me away from the scene so that the event could continue; otherwise, all their hard work would be for nothing. Just then, Ouyang Zhirou and Lin Mu Xi rushed out from backstage after hearing Hu Yao's shouts. Upon seeing my current state, both of them widened their eyes in disbelief, covering their mouths with their hands as they stood frozen in place. The aura of menace surrounding me was a stark contrast to how they usually saw me.
I felt as if I were possessed by fire, muttering repeatedly, “I want you to suffer worse than death.”
Those few words sounded like a haunting echo in the ears of the person on the ground, causing him to faint immediately.
“Quick! Hurry!”
At this point, Hu Yao visibly panicked, gripping me tightly as she shouted at the security guards, “Do you know who his father is? West City District Zhao Changsheng! Zhao Feng Gou! If you’re tired of living, go ahead and try!”
Although Old Zhao had enough connections to bail me out, if I were truly taken in, Hu Yao would have a hard time explaining things to Zhao Changsheng and feared further complications. She could only invoke his name to intimidate them.
When they heard Zhao Changsheng's name, they froze in place. They were genuinely afraid of him; working in security meant they had to tread carefully. They could easily decide never to return to Lake City again. Zhao Changsheng’s reputation was indeed formidable there, but outside Lake City, his influence might not hold as much weight.
Seeing them unmoved by her words made Hu Yao anxious. If the police were called, it would lead to serious trouble. She was holding me back now; otherwise, she would have been able to snatch their phones away without hesitation.
“What about my dad? Ouyang Xiong?”
At this moment, Ouyang Zhirou and Lin Mu Xi joined us and realized that if the police were truly involved, it would be a significant problem.
Hearing the names of two powerful figures in Lake City shattered any remaining hope they had of escaping unscathed. “What are you waiting for? Fight! Otherwise, someone might end up dead!”
“Captain!”
“Damn it! Fight! Hurry!”
“Mom, if you want to die, don’t drag me into it! Just one Zhao Changsheng is enough to scare them; adding Ouyang Xiong into the mix means there’s no way out for them! Who wants to die? Let them fight!”
Sometimes resorting to violence isn’t always a good solution. Should we just kill them all? As the saying goes, only dead men tell no tales; even a cornered rabbit will bite back. With so many people here, dealing with each one individually would be troublesome. If too many died, those in power wouldn’t just turn a blind eye. To ensure they kept quiet for good would require some incentives—this was something Ouyang Zhirou understood.
“Thank you. In Lake City, if you need anything, you can find me in the East District.”
“No need for thanks; let’s first calm down the students’ emotions. You should take him away; he can’t stay here any longer or else we won’t get paid for this event. My brothers rely on this for a living; I hope you’ll show some mercy.”
Ouyang Zhirou softly agreed and signaled for Hu Yao to take me along with them.
