Chapter 33: There's no going back .

Sin is a tattoo that can't be washed off; it will remain etched for a lifetime.

In a cafe,

a handsome young man sat by the window, drinking coffee.

His bangs were slightly long, covering his eyebrows.

His eyes were bright and sharp.

Even in his casual attire, he managed to create a fashion show vibe.

A touch of melancholy adorned his whole body.

Two cups of coffee sat on his desk.

One for himself, the other for Chen Yuan.

"Sister, I'm sorry I didn't bring you here sooner."

"In my next life, if there is one, I will protect you and never let you come to any harm!"

"I will make them pay for all the wrongs you've suffered in this life, I promise!"

Chen Sheng muttered to himself.

Wang Hongli's family was dead.

So were Gao Xue, Fang Long, and Zhang Kai's families.

Especially Zhang Kai!

Chen Sheng wanted to make him feel all the fear and pain!

After Zhang Kai knew Wang Hongli's family was finished, he would be so terrified he wouldn't dare leave the house.

This kind of fear was also very piercing and terrifying!

As a child, Chen Sheng often watched dogs being slaughtered on the street.

His greatest fear wasn't the dogs being killed, but the next one in the cage.

That pounding heart, that feeling of uncertainty about whether he'd live or die in the next second, was the most excruciating!

Suddenly, his phone vibrated.

It was a message from Xiaofeng.

"Brother Sheng, Brother Chen wants to see you. It's the other party's parents' request. I'll be there,"

Chen Sheng replied immediately with a "yes.

" It seemed the "dog-killing" effect was already brewing among those parents.

Brother Chen was cautious this time.

Furthermore, he seemed quite afraid of Chen Sheng.

He'd read the news reports and felt that this guy was someone special.

His ruthlessness seemed to surpass his own.

To avenge his sister, he'd do anything.

In the abandoned factory, there were no surveillance cameras, and no one was around.

Brother Chen brought over twenty people.

They were all armed, and they'd all been with him through life.

With so many people around, even the most formidable Chen Sheng wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.

Brother Chen had already made up his mind: if he couldn't convince Chen Sheng today, he would kill him.

Keeping a guy like that around will only bring endless trouble!

"Brother Chen, we've discussed this and are willing to give you an extra million!"

"As long as you can deal with that guy, no matter what method you use, even convincing him!" Gao Chenhong, standing nearby, spoke cautiously.

"Don't worry, Old Gao, you should know who I am." Brother Chen smiled, very satisfied with the one million.

Gao Chenhong naturally knew who Brother Chen was, otherwise he wouldn't have offered such a high price for his help.

Brother Chen had risen to power through sheer ruthlessness.

His gang consisted of over a hundred people.

While not a large group, each one was a fierce character.

He had the single most important principle: never compromise.

When fighting for territory, he was also a murderer. He

was a well-known figure in other provinces.

He had also killed many people under his command.

With so many people here today, he could definitely kill Mr. Chen!

Killing him would put his biggest worry to rest.

"Have you investigated this kid? Does he have any other background?" Brother Chen asked.

Xiao Feng quickly spoke up, "Brother Chen, I've investigated everything, but I can't find any clues about him."

"He's just an ordinary guy, with no background."

"Yeah," Brother Chen nodded, his mind lost.

Gao Chenhong suddenly shouted.

"That kid's here!"

A man slowly approached the door.

It was Mr. Chen.

He was alone, looking a little frail.

At the door, several people frisked him.

Mr. Chen cooperated and opened his hands.

Finding no weapons on him, they nodded and let him pass.

Mr. Chen walked up to Brother Chen, sat down, and drank his tea.

"Your tea is very good," Chen praised.

Brother Chen laughed.

He saw in the young man a calmness and composure that he himself had never possessed.

If this boy didn't have a deep background, there was only one reason:

He wasn't afraid of death. He

had already put life and death aside when he did all this.

"Mr. Chen, you're great. I admire you!" Brother Chen poured him a full cup of tea.

If someone like Chen Sheng were a friend, he'd be Brother Chen's right-hand man.

But if he were an enemy,

he'd be a deep, dark hole!

Chen Sheng didn't look at Brother Chen, but at Gao Chenhong, who was hiding behind him.

"Is Gao Xue okay?"

Boom!

Gao Chenhong's expression changed instantly when he heard this.

He felt like he'd fallen into a cold cave.

"Mr. Chen, children are ignorant. Can't we just let this go?"

"Gao Xue was also bewitched. I'm sad about your sister, but she's dead. We should be thinking of a solution!"

Mr. Chen sneered. "Bewitched? She used to bully my sister, was she also bewitched?"

"When she bullied my sister, she slapped her so hard!"

"A dead person, everything is nonsense. Is there any point in talking?"

Gao Chenhong's voice became anxious. "Mr. Chen, just make your conditions. As long as you can let my daughter go, I'll agree to any of them!"

Mr. Chen paused, ready to grab the teacup, and raised an eyebrow. "Really?"

"Then I do have two conditions."

"You name it, and I'll grant it to you, no matter what!" Gao Chenhong quickly replied.

"First, you die. Second, my sister's resurrection."

Gao

Chenhong's face immediately darkened.

Isn't this bullying?

Mr. Chen, this brat.

Is he really that stubborn?

He was determined to fight to the bitter end!

Gao Chenhong had been in business for so long, and he'd never met anyone who didn't like money.

Today was an eye-opener.

Mr. Chen truly didn't care about money!

He just

wanted justice! A life for a life!

"Hey, there's no need to make it this far," Brother Chen interrupted.

"The dead can't be brought back to life, so just give me some face today."

"The three families will give you a total of five million! Let's forget about this matter, and we won't pursue any further questions! How's that?"

Five million.

To most people, it's a sum they'll never reach in their lifetime.

But for Mr. Chen, nothing in this world is more important than his sister. And

now that his sister is gone, they'll

pay him back with their lives!

Mr. Chen sneered, looking at Brother Chen: "Five million, how about your life?"

Wow,

that caught everyone's attention!

Every one of his subordinates gathered around

, weapons drawn, ready to strike!

Brother Chen's face instantly darkened.

This guy was just like last time, his tone so aggressive.

"Mr. Chen, you may not know my background and real record yet. I advise you to think it over before you answer me."

"I have been a gangster since I was a teenager and have been in the underworld for nearly 20 years. What kind of people have I not seen? What kind of things have I not encountered?"

"I have seven nightclubs in other provinces, hundreds of younger brothers, and various connections."

"Are you here for a blind date?" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mr. Chen in annoyance.

"I'm not interested in knowing your business."

"I only know that if you continue to interfere in this matter, you may not be able to go back to other provinces."

Brother Chen's pupils suddenly shrank!

Anger erupted in an instant.

Mr. Chen really thought he didn't dare to do it?

Who does he think he is!

"Kill this kid for me!!"

"Do it!"

Bang!

Just listen, a gunshot was heard.

It seemed to explode right next to the ear!
