Capítulo 686: Chapter 686: Miss Lai Wants to Buy His Life!
Lai Shengxia had a bad feeling after hearing that.
Dropping the call, she opened the browser on her cellphone.
On the forum of Tang Li’s school, a post in red was pinned to the top. When Lai Shengxia saw the title, especially the words “shocking scam,” a heat crept up her neck.
In the post, Ethan was thoroughly exposed. Apart from being a thug who oversaw a Las Vegas entertainment venue, some censored intimate photos of him were also leaked.
A dozen photos, Ethan with different Western women—hard as iron, women flowing like water.
Ethan, sitting next to Lai Shengxia, caught a glimpse of the photos on the phone, and his face turned pale instantly.
How did these photos, his private stash on the computer, leak out?
The identity of that Adolf/Winter was also dug up, a homeless man sleeping under a bridge, and the translator following him was just a car wash kid. As for the Rolls-Royce, it was rented cheaply from a local dealership, and only for half a day.
The entire Art College was engulfed in outrage.
The comments below the post were all condemnations.
“We must deal with this strictly! Such scum can’t be let off; who knows who they might harm next!”
“F**k! I even considered letting Tang Li act back then. What if she was deceived? If Tang Li followed them to Las Vegas, who knows if she could come back!”
“We must call the police! This is a criminal gang, we can’t let them get away!”
Before Lai Shengxia could come up with a plan, Ouyang Qian called her.
Lai Shengxia only felt a headache and couldn’t bear to look at Ethan, who couldn’t control his lower half. Annoyed, she kicked him out of the car and drove herself to the Tianyi Group.
Ethan stood by the road, and belatedly realized that Lai Shengxia had not returned his cellphone.
Unable to catch up with the sports car, he resigned himself to his bad luck!
The detention center was somewhat remote. He walked for a while and was about to hail a cab when a van suddenly stopped in front of him. The doors were flung open, and seven or eight masked men stepped out, armed with iron rods or machetes. Suddenly, one of them turned and looked his way!
Ethan panicked as that person shouted, “There he is! Don’t let him escape!”
Upon hearing this, Ethan took off running. The source of thɪs content is novel fire.net
He hadn’t run far when he was struck in the back of the knee with a rod!
Ethan dropped to one knee!
A sharp pain hit his back—it was a slashing machete.
Different from the beating he received that night, the assault consisted of iron rods and machetes. He was hit more than two or three times on his arms and legs. The smell of blood permeated the air, causing him to scream in agony.
As he lay on the ground, he caught sight of someone in the distance.
Before Ethan could cry for help, the figure disappeared from view.
Shortly after, his hands were restrained and pinned down!
An assailant approached him, raising an iron rod aimed at his head with a brutal force that intended to end his life!
“No!” Ethan struggled desperately.
The iron rod came crashing down anyway!
In a flash, the urgent sound of whistles was heard.
Ethan turned to see five or six men, dressed in security uniforms and blowing whistles, running towards him. Seeing a glimmer of hope, he yelled at the top of his lungs, “Save me! Hurry and save me!”
Right after he shouted, he was kicked to the ground!
Ethan tasted mud in his mouth as one of the assailants, brandishing a machete, continued to chase him, while another grabbed him, saying, “Let’s go! Those guys are coming!”
“Miss Lai wants his life. If we don’t finish the job, where will we get the money?”
“Then wait for the next time. There’s plenty of opportunities!”
As the security guards drew near, the assailants turned and fled.
The van quickly drove away from the scene.
