Xu Rongfei forcibly overcame the weakness in her legs that Fu Ziming's scare had caused, and rushed forward to snatch the revolver from Ning Fan's hand.
"I won't allow you to take your life so lightly!"
Tears swirled in Xu Rongfei's eyes as she said, biting her thin lips.
Fu Ziming, watching how concerned Xu Rongfei was for Ning Fan's safety, was about to burst with anger, yet he didn't have the courage to step forward and interrupt them.
After all, Ning Fan had just cleanly defeated the thugs he had heavily paid for, and now he was holding a revolver, ready to play that insane devil's game.
"Madman, you lunatic, I won't play your devil's game! I don't want to die here with only your miserable life at stake!"
Fu Ziming murmured to himself, his spirit on the verge of collapse.
Ning Fan, looking at Fu Ziming's loss of composure, smiled faintly, reassured Xu Rongfei by his side, and said, "Don't worry about me, I believe my luck will help me make it through."
Having said this, Ning Fan pointed the revolver at his own head and pulled the trigger without hesitation!
Xu Rongfei screamed sharply, hope filling Fu Ziming's eyes!
The sound of gears turning arose, and contrary to Fu Ziming's expectation, no blood or brain matter splattered; the chamber was empty!
"Now, it's your turn."
Ning Fan smiled faintly, handing the revolver over to Fu Ziming.
Fu Ziming felt his legs tremble, nearly collapsing to the ground. He had no courage to pull the trigger. He leaned on an office chair,
cold sweat streaming down his forehead, and, barely keeping his composure, whispered, "I am a civilized person, I have such a large estate, why should I play this boring game with you? Ning Fan, get out of here immediately!"
"Oh? Is that so? I think you're just afraid to put a bullet through your own head."
With a cold smirk, Ning Fan said, "Since you're too scared, no worries, I'll help you!"
After these words, Ning Fan pointed the revolver directly at Fu Ziming and pulled the trigger without hesitation!
This shot was also a blank.
But Fu Ziming was completely crushed by the immense pressure, miserably collapsing to the ground, hands clutching his head,
screaming madly, "Don't kill me, please, don't kill me! Xu Rongfei is yours, from now on, I have nothing to do with her!"
Xu Rongfei also swallowed nervously, but upon seeing such a pathetic display from Fu Ziming, she let out a barely noticeable sigh.
This Fu Ziming, she really must have been blind to have taken an interest in him!
Fu Ziming had already collapsed on the ground, lacking even the strength to move a finger. Ning Fan, looking at his despicable state, smirked slightly,
and again aimed the revolver at his own head, smiling as he said, "Since you're lucky, and that bullet didn't hit, let's play something more thrilling."
After saying this, Ning Fan's expression turned slightly grave as he pulled the trigger twice in a row!
The sound of the gears turning seemed especially grating in the tense atmosphere of the office!
All the bullets were blanks, and Ning Fan was still standing there unharmed!
The revolver had now fired five blanks, which meant that the last bullet, definitely a live one!
Ning Fan smiled as he turned the gun around and handed it to Fu Ziming, slowly saying, "Now, it's your turn."
Fu Ziming dared not take the gun from his hand, as all five bullets had already been blanks; this bullet must be real. If he continued the game, it'd be akin to committing suicide on the spot!
Fear of death completely shattered Fu Ziming's defenses, and he slumped into the chair, clutching it with both hands and said in a terrified voice, "I was wrong, I will never dare to hit a woman again. You take Xu Rongfei; from now on, I have nothing to do with her!"
Ning Fan scoffed, "It seems you haven't apologized to Rongfei yet."
Fu Ziming, not daring to defy Ning Fan at this point, immediately turned his head and loudly said to Xu Rongfei, "Rongfei, I was wrong, I was blind and misunderstood you, I apologize to you!"
"Smack! Smack! Smack!"
The crisp sound echoed.
To show his sincerity, Fu Ziming actually started slapping his own fairly handsome face left and right!
Soon, his cheeks swelled up high, making him look like a pig's head.
Ning Fan coldly snorted and kicked Fu Ziming, who was kneeling on the ground, then coldly said, "Do you think you deserve to call her Rongfei?"
Seeing Ning Fan's tightly furrowed brows and expressionless face, Fu Ziming shuddered and instantly understood Ning Fan's meaning.
"Divorce, Xu Rongfei, I want a divorce from you. From now on, we will have nothing to do with each other!"
Fu Ziming shouted with all his might.
After saying this, he felt like a sponge drained of water, weakly collapsing on the floor.
"Whether to divorce or not is your affair, but remember, don't bully women!"
Ning Fan said indifferently, holding Xu Rongfei's hand and softly adding, "Let's go ahead, staying here, the air is contaminated by someone else, I can hardly breathe."
Xu Rongfei gave a deep look at Fu Ziming, then followed Ning Fan, leaving the scene, but her brows were still tightly furrowed, not at all relieved by Fu Ziming's agreement to divorce.
Ning Fan obviously noticed this and, as Xu Rongfei was about to drive away downstairs, he leaned against the car door and said with a smile, "Still angry, huh? Are you upset that I came late?"
Xu Rongfei was silent for a while before shaking her head and saying, "Move aside, I want to go home."
"What is it, really? Talk to me; let me try to make things better."
Ning Fan said cheerfully.
However, shortly after he spoke, Xu Rongfei completely lost her temper, slapped the steering wheel hard,
and said very angrily to Ning Fan, "You bastard, do you understand how dangerous the situation just was? If your luck had been a bit worse, do you realize the price you might have paid!"
Ning Fan simply smiled, shrugged, and said, "But I was lucky, everything is fine, and here I am, alive and kicking."
Tears welled up in Xu Rongfei's eyes, her vision blurred as she looked at Ning Fan and shouted, "I hate how you don't cherish life; even if you don't consider yourself, can't you think about me at all!
You make me feel so insecure, Ning Fan, I hate you!"
Watching Xu Rongfei's nearly broken expression, Ning Fan felt somewhat helpless, snapped his fingers, and said mysteriously, "Actually, I have a secret to tell you."
[In fact, the protagonist has always seen Xu Rongfei as a friend, the reason he interfered in Xu Rongfei and Fu Ziming's matter is simply because he hates men who hit women! And Fu Ziming was no good anyway, he didn't really meddle in their affairs, just to clarify. Also, I could use a few free tickets, it's snowing heavily today, Baobao is freezing.]
