As he spoke, the man pressed the switchblade closer, and blood began to ooze from Erlengzi’s neck.
Zhang Laosan and his companion were so frightened they almost fainted, hastily saying, "I’ll talk, I’ll talk, we gave that thing to our benefactor, Divine Doctor Ye!"
"Divine Doctor Ye?" the man in black frowned and asked.
"Yes, yes, that’s right, we only know his surname is Ye, and his medical skills are superb, even better than those doctors at The First Hospital!" Zhang Laosan’s lips trembled as he spoke all in one breath.
The man in black nodded, "Yes, I know who it is!"
"Then could you please release my son now?" Zhang Laosan asked.
"Did I say that I was going to release anyone?"
As soon as the man in black finished speaking, he pulled the switchblade, slashing Erlengzi’s neck and causing blood to gush out.
Erlengzi’s eyes widened in disbelief as he fell dead.
Immediately after, the cries of mourning from two elderly people followed.
"Go die, your whole family can keep each other company on the journey to the Underworld!"
Shortly afterward, Zhang Laosan and his wife were stabbed several times and fell down beside Erlengzi, the three of them dying together.
"Burn this place down! Hurry up!"
Boom, a massive fire soon consumed Erlengzi’s house completely, stunning everyone in the village.
At this moment, Ye Chenfeng had already returned to the cruise ship and had brought back some fruits for the ladies, which were indeed gifts from Erlengzi’s elderly mother.
For some reason, Ye Chenfeng suddenly felt a sense of foreboding.
"The fruit you brought, Chenfeng, is delicious, much better than what they sell in the city!" Chu Qingxue and the other ladies said as they elegantly ate the fruit, unable to stop themselves from complimenting it.
Ye Chenfeng nodded, "Yes, the fruit is grown by the farmer himself. From now on, the fruits for the Chu Corporation will be supplied exclusively by Erlengzi’s family!"
"Sure, no problem!" Chu Qingxue responded.
"Qingxue, how can this watermelon be so delicious? I wonder how they grow it?" Lu Wanqing wondered aloud.
Chu Qingxue shook her head, "I don’t know either, probably the water they use for irrigation is good!"
"Hehe, want to know?" Ye Chenfeng’s lips curled into a slightly wicked smile.
Seeing this, Lu Wanqing was startled but couldn’t help asking, "What?"
"The soil is fertile, they use good fertilizer!" Ye Chenfeng said.
"What kind of fertilizer? Don’t they have it in the city?" Lu Wanqing asked curiously.
Ye Chenfeng smiled, "They do have it, but it’s not easy to collect!"
"What is it, don’t keep us in suspense!"
"It’s still manure, even if it comes from a farm!" Ye Chenfeng said.
As Ye Chenfeng’s words fell, Chu Qingxue and the two other women rushed toward the restroom.
Suddenly, Ye Chenfeng received a call from Xi Dazhuang saying there had been an accident.
Borrowing an Audi from Chu Qingxue, Ye Chenfeng quickly arrived in front of the Chu Corporation building.
As soon as he got out of the car, Ye Chenfeng encountered Xi Dazhuang and a few others, but each of them seemed uneasy. Wang Feng looked particularly dejected, with his head down, wondering about something, especially with a handprint on his face.
"Let me tell you, Ye bro, it’s , Wang Feng’s girlfriend, Xiao Wen, broke up with him!" Du Ziteng said.
Ye Chenfeng was somewhat speechless. "A breakup, such a trivial matter, and you come to me?"
"No, Ye bro, do you know who Xiao Wen cheated with?" asked Du Ziteng.
"With whom?" Ye Chenfeng asked.
Du Ziteng said somewhat excitedly, "It’s that bastard, Yanyan; he bought Xiao Wen a few pairs of shoes, and just like that, he stole her away!"
"Such a woman is not worth keeping!" Ye Chenfeng said.
"Right, but Wang Feng just can’t see it. After drinking a bit, he wouldn’t listen to our advice and insisted on killing Yanyan!" Du Ziteng said.
Ye Chenfeng stepped forward and pushed Wang Feng, speaking coldly, "What’s the matter? A woman has hurt you to this extent! Are you even a man anymore?"
"I don’t believe Xiao Wen would leave me. She still loves me. We had plans to marry in two years. She must be lying now, she must love me!" Wang Feng yelled.
"Hey, isn’t that Ye what’s-his-name? What, came to Chu Corporation to beg for food?" A mocking voice came, as Yanyan walked up arrogantly, arm in arm with a pretty young girl, dressed in flashy branded clothes.
Seeing the girl, Wang Feng became completely agitated and immediately lunged forward, "Xiao Wen, don’t leave me, I know you love me, I’ve always loved you, just come back to me, and I will treat you like before!"
"Let go, you’re hurting me, let go!" Xiao Wen said, her face flushed as she struggled to break free.
"What are you doing? This is my girlfriend, hit her again and see what happens. Believe it or not, I’ll call the cops?" Yanyan pushed Wang Feng away.
Tears streamed down Wang Feng’s face as he choked up, "Xiao Wen, come back. You won’t be happy with him! Don’t you know? He’s already married, you’re the other woman now!"
"Wang Feng, my affairs don’t concern you anymore. I don’t care whether he’s married or not, at least I won’t go back to living in a basement with you. With Yanyan, I can eat whatever I want, buy whatever I want. But with you? Just struggles, nothing else! You used to be security at Chu Corporation, making over ten thousand a month, but now? You’re nothing, back to living off the Northwest wind! Wang Feng, I’m telling you clearly, we have no future. Please don’t harass me anymore!" Xiao Wen cruelly spoke her mind, coquettishly leaning into Yanyan’s embrace.
Yanyan held Xiao Wen in his arms and said arrogantly, "Wang Feng, from now on, stop harassing my girlfriend, or I’ll make you eat prison meals for life!"
Ye Chenfeng sneered, "You sure have a lot of power!"
"What about it? Not convinced? Don’t talk about you eating prison meals, even your boss, Chu Renkuang, would be eating them, you’re nothing!" Yanyan said.
"I’ll fucking kill you!" Wang Feng suddenly roared, pulling out a knife from his clothes and charged forward, screaming.
"You fucking pulling a knife, you’ll go to prison for this!"
"Wang Feng, you jerk! I misjudged you!"
Instantly, Yanyan and Xiao Wen were thrown into disarray.
"Pull Wang Feng back!" Ye Chenfeng commanded. Xi Dazhuang stepped forward, forcibly dragged Wang Feng back, and threw away the knife in his hand.
Yanyan adjusted his suit and snorted coldly, "I won’t talk to low-class folks like you anymore. I’m off to attend President Chu’s engagement party. Sea and Sky Feast, Xiao Wen, if you had stayed with that coward Wang Feng, you’d probably never see such high-class places in your lifetime! It’s good to be with me, look at the posh places you get to go right away!"
"Yes, Yanyan, I love you! Mwah!" Xiao Wen kissed Yanyan.
