Chapter 156: Not Interested in You (1st Update)

Chapter 156: Not Interested in You (1st Update)

The tall man was filled with Killing Intent, but Zhou Lang still sat on the sofa without moving. These two killers were naturally formidable in the eyes of ordinary people, but in his eyes, they were less than ants.

But Shop Clerk Wu Minqi was scared. Although she hid behind Zhou Lang, her body trembled. She feared that after these two men killed Zhou Lang, they might do something to her.

"Two big brothers, I… I have nothing to do with Zhou Lang. Please don't… don't kill me." Wu Minqi begged the two men holding daggers.

"Beautiful woman, originally you shouldn't have to die, but since you'll see something you shouldn't, you'll have to die too," the short, wiry man laughed. "Actually, I'm a bit reluctant, because I'm a man who cherishes beauty. Usually, when I see a sexy beauty like you, I try every way to have a fling."

"Big brother, please don't kill me. I'll do whatever you want. I won't say anything. If you want to play, I'm willing to play with you… I… I really don't want to die."

Zhao Minqi begged bitterly, her teeth chattering.

"Begging me is useless. You can only blame your bad luck for getting mixed up with this kid Zhou Lang." The short, wiry man's Face turned cold.

"Brother, stop wasting time with this woman. I'll kill Zhou Lang, you kill the woman. Finish and leave immediately to avoid trouble later."

The tall man, annoyed by the short man's verbosity, reminded him, then thrust his dagger at Zhou Lang's chest, shouting, "Kid, prepare to die!"

At this moment, the tall man still thought Zhou Lang was scared stiff, sitting motionless on the sofa. He never imagined Zhou Lang simply didn't regard him as a threat.

"You two weaklings, can you kill me?" Zhou Lang smiled faintly, extended two fingers, and effortlessly caught the tall man's dagger.

The tall man was shocked. He tried to pull the dagger out but couldn't budge it. His Face flushed red, and he quickly shouted to the wiry man who was about to kill Wu Minqi, "This guy is weird. Help me kill him first!"

The wiry man also sensed something was wrong, so he abandoned Wu Minqi and lunged at Zhou Lang.

Zhou Lang suddenly released the dagger. The tall man, who had been pulling hard, stumbled backward and fell to the ground.

Before the short, wiry man's dagger could reach Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang kicked him in the stomach, sending him flying backward.

The two men crashed together.

Under Wu Minqi's stunned gaze, Zhou Lang stood up, walked over to the two men, and said calmly, "Now, do you still want to kill me?"

The two men tried to get up and fight, but Zhou Lang kicked each of them. This time, he struck their Acupoints, and the bastards immediately went limp, unable to move.

"Brother Lang, you… you're so amazing, so domineering. I like you even more now."

With the crisis over, Wu Minqi, who had been terrified, was overjoyed. She immediately went to Zhou Lang's side and grabbed his arm.

"Stay aside for now. I'm going to call the police to handle these two bastards."

But Zhou Lang didn't pay much attention to Wu Minqi.

When the two men heard Zhou Lang was calling the police, they panicked. If they fell into the hands of the police, they would be dead, as they were repeat offenders with past murder cases.

But they couldn't move at all, only fretting helplessly.

Zhou Lang took out his phone. He initially wanted to call Captain Tang Fei, the Tyrannosaurus Policewoman, but with Wu Minqi present, he worried about misunderstandings. After thinking, he called Police Chief Sun Yongkang of the Feiyun City Municipal Police Bureau.

Last time, when he was framed by Jiang Zhengqiu and others and taken to the Linwu District Police Sub-bureau, he had called Secretary Lei Gang in the interrogation room. Secretary Lei immediately sent Sun Yongkang. Zhou Lang felt Sun Yongkang should know he had an unusual relationship with Secretary Lei Gang, and he believed Sun Yongkang would give him some Face and send people quickly.

Soon the call connected. After understanding the situation, Director Sun Yongkang promised to personally lead the team.

In less than ten minutes, over a dozen heavily armed police officers arrived at the hotel where Zhou Lang was staying, led by Sun Yongkang.

"Mr. Zhou, I'm sorry for being late," Sun Yongkang apologized humbly upon entering the room.

This shocked Wu Minqi. She immediately recognized the leading officer as Municipal Police Bureau Director Sun Yongkang. But from his tone, this director was very polite to Zhou Lang, as if Zhou Lang's status was even higher than Sun Yongkang's. This strengthened her determination to seduce Zhou Lang, as she believed he was richer than she had imagined.

"Director Sun, please don't say that. I'm sorry to trouble you so late at night."

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhou Lang said, "Before acting, these two killers claimed they were sent by Ke Zhendong, the boss of Huanyu Group. Last time, after Ke Zhendong was caught soliciting prostitution in the provincial capital, he suspected that Zhao Xiaorou, daughter of Governor Zhao Cang, and I had called the police, so he wants revenge."

"Mr. Zhou, I will thoroughly investigate this case," Sun Yongkang said, his mind stirred by Zhou Lang's words.

Because Zhou Lang's words revealed that he had an unusual relationship with Zhao Xiaorou, the governor's daughter. It seemed he now understood why Secretary Lei valued Zhou Lang so much, having personally handled matters when Zhou Lang had trouble last time.

"Yes, after you interrogate these two, if you confirm their connection to Ke Zhendong, please contact me immediately so I can take the next step. I'll call Zhao Xiaorou and ask her to contact the Provincial Police Department to first detain Ke Zhendong."

Zhou Lang said, then kicked each of the two killers, releasing their Acupoints.

"Certainly. I'll take these two away now." Sun Yongkang nodded, had his men handcuff the killers, and left.

"Brother Lang, you're so impressive! Even the Feiyun City Police Bureau director is so polite to you. Those two thugs trying to kill you was pure fantasy."

When only Zhou Lang and Wu Minqi remained in the room, Wu Minqi said coquettishly.

Now she knew Zhou Lang was not only rich but also powerful, so she wanted even more to be seduced by him, to be kept by him, and to gain more benefits.

Thinking she had really hooked a wealthy man, she was overjoyed.

"You can stay here tonight. I'm leaving now." Zhou Lang had no mood to play with this gold-digger Wu Minqi anymore. He prepared to leave immediately.

"Brother Lang, don't go! You haven't seen my skills in serving men yet."

Wu Minqi panicked and immediately acted coy. Her flirtatiousness would be irresistible to most men.

"Earlier, you told those killers you had nothing to do with me. I'm not interested in wasting time with a woman who has no connection to me."

Zhou Lang smiled faintly and walked out.

"Brother Lang, I said that because I was scared. I was wrong. Can I apologize?"

Wu Minqi begged. Seeing that a wealthy second-generation like Zhou Lang was about to sleep with her, she didn't want to miss this chance. In her view, missing the opportunity to sleep with Zhou Lang meant missing the chance to make a lot of money.

"There's nothing wrong with self-preservation in danger. Your mistake is being willing to do anything for money, including giving your body. I'm not interested in a gold-digger like you."

Zhou Lang said and left directly.

Wu Minqi was stunned. After Zhou Lang left, she cursed indignantly, "If you're not interested in me, why did you touch me? Don't act noble in front of me!"

If it were another man, she might have tried to pester him, but Zhou Lang could summon the city police chief with a single call and had connections with the governor's daughter. She didn't dare.

As soon as Zhou Lang left the hotel and took a car back to Violet Apartment, he received a call from Director Sun Yongkang.

Sun Yongkang said over the phone that both killers had criminal records and had confessed that Ke Zhendong was their mastermind.

After hanging up with Sun Yongkang, Zhou Lang immediately contacted Zhao Xiaorou. He was worried about her safety because if Ke Zhendong had sent people after him, he might also target Zhao Xiaorou.

In a duplex house in a luxury residential area in the provincial capital, Ke Zhendong was having a good time.

He didn't yet know that his two subordinates had been caught. If he knew his men had failed to assassinate Zhou Lang and were arrested, he probably wouldn't be in the mood to play with women.

This place was not his home, but his love nest.

Logically, after the bare-bottom incident and the prostitution scandal, his reputation in the provincial capital and even the entire Dianxi Province was ruined. But unexpectedly, there were benefits too. Some gold-digging women, knowing Ke Zhendong was lecherous, took the initiative to contact him.

The girl now cuddling with Ke Zhendong on the sofa was one who contacted him via WeChat a day after he became infamous.

The girl, whose real name was unknown, called herself Xiao Hong. She was a sophomore, very beautiful, but as gold-digging as Wu Minqi. After contacting Ke Zhendong, she directly said she was willing to be kept but demanded 50,000 yuan a month.

Now Ke Zhendong was a celebrity, making it inconvenient to visit entertainment venues for women, as those Young Misses could recognize him. So he thought keeping a beauty was safer. He bought a furnished apartment in this complex and spent every night with Xiao Hong here.

"Xiao Hong, you're really a fox spirit. Since meeting you, I can't get enough. Tonight, I'll go for a third round."

After foreplay on the sofa, Ke Zhendong pressed Xiao Hong beneath him, ready to enter her.

"Brother Dong, did you take the medicine? Don't be just three minutes again," Xiao Hong reminded with a laugh.

"I bought imported medicine. Tonight, I'll unleash Divine Might and make you, fox spirit, scream with pleasure." Ke Zhendong began to move.
