CHAPTER 629

"Say, Fengjin... Who is this guy? How come the rest of us knows about him and what does he want with you?" Yang Chen asked.

Since this whole charade began, he has been wondering about it. Li Fengjin had finished taking care of his enemies a long time back.

That was when he newly took over the company from his father and the progress was the envy of many. So who is this new nuisance in his friend's life?

"Sigh. It's a long story, bro. Details and all will be after my wife and son are alright," Li Fengjin said.

"No problem. Let's rid our lives of all the pests first." Yang Chen did not push for anything more. Now was not the time to talk about that.

"I'm erasing his existence from the earth. And I'm not holding back one bit."

"You better. I have sent you the location of the guy. The rest is up to you," says Yang Chen.

"Sure. Thanks, bro," Li Fengjin appreciated him before ending the call.

"This will be your last light of day, Zhixin," he murmured before stepping up the gas, gearing the car to run twice its formal speed.

******

Meanwhile, Li Xiaojin was scared about the unfamiliar environment and evil-looking men around, especially the man with red hair.

"If you don't let me go, my daddy will come for me and when he does, you'll get it," he said with a glare.

Although that glare was good, his little cute self made the scoff and laugh.

"Oh, really? I'm so scared," Zhixin made a crying face causing the men around to laugh even more.

"You better be scared," Li Xiaojin spat out.

"You sure are bold for a kid your age. I see your daddy's wealth and power have instilled that in you. But not anymore, brat."

Zhixin leaned down to Li Xiaojin so that their faces were only a breath apart. "Because I'm taking over."

Just then the door to the room was opened and in came right men with a petite woman in their midst.

"Oh, look. Your mummy has come to join us," Zhixin smiled.

He stood up and took leisure steps toward Bai Renxiang.

"Well, you look even hotter in professional attire. If I was Fengjin, I will abandon my office for yours," Zhixin eyed her.

Bai Renxiang contains herself from spitting on his face. She felt disgusted. Repulsed even.

"You have me here. Now, let me son go," Bai Renxiang said.

"Oh? But you just arrived," Zhixin raised his brows.

"That's not the deal. I follow your men here and you let him go. That's what we agreed on," Bai Renxiang stated.

"Is it?" Zhixin questioned as his smirk grew. "You see, I never made such, a deal with you, beautiful."

Bai Renxiang frowned.

"My words exactly... We will discuss that when you get here," he quoted. "So you see, beautiful. You got your own words in your head. Not mine."

Bai Renxiang was shocked. 'So this is how it's going to be. Well, two can play this game,' she thought.

As swiftly as she could, Bai Renxiang ducked taking the gun at Zhixin's waist with her. She cleared his feet off the floor and shot the first two bullets at the men behind her.

Before they could react and hold her down, she rolled over and got into a kneeling position and shot four more men.

Zhixin took cover as everyone started shooting, missed bullets were flying all over. Li Xiaojin took the opportunity of their distraction to hide.

Luckily, he found a sharp object laying idly on the floor. He started cutting himself loose. Meanwhile, Bai Renxiang was going against the remaining five men all by herself.

"Xiaojin go. Run away from here," she barked at him.

"Mummy, wha–"

"Hurry," Bai Renxiang rushed him.

She can't let her coming here be in vain. She can't let Zhixin use both her and her son as bait to kill Li Fengjin. Never.

And there is no guarantee that they will both be unharmed before help arrives. So, it is better to fight for one to escape.

With tears in his eyes, Li Xiaojin ran out through the open door- Zhixin's mistake became his escape.

"Follow that little punk. Don't let him escape. I need him," Zhixin ordered his men.

Two of them left leaving Bai Renxiang with three men. Just as she thought she could handle them before she got totally exhausted, six more men rushed into the room with frantic faces.

"Boss, we heard the commotion and came quickly," one of them said.

"Don't worry now. We have her under control," Zhixin smirked, his eyes never leaving Bai Renxiang.

Bai Renxiang knew she has already lost the battle but she still kept her arms up with guns in each. Her eyes were red and her aura exuded fearlessness and fierceness.

She can be likened to a tigress not willing to bow before the king, a lion.

"Give it up, woman. You can't escape," he said.

As a reply, Bai Renxiang shot at another of his me and then another. She aimed for others but the shot never came.

*click click*

She was out of bullets. Before she could find another solution, she felt a yank in her arm forcing the gun out of her grip. Bai Renxiang hit the bottom of the gun in her other hand across the man's face.

But that did not lose his grip. Instead, it tightened and then he retaliated with a strike of his own force and strength included.

SMACK

"Ugh."

A slap fell across her face, turning her around. The next, she got shocked by a taser and then her vision turned black.

"Damn it. This b*tch hits hard," the man said before wiping off the blood that stained the side of his lips due to Bai Renxiang's blow.

"I was shocked too. But she is not a one-man army," another commented.

"You should be ashamed a petite woman like her made a hard hit on bulky meat like you," Zhixin snarled at them.

They fell silent. What he said made them realise they had an ego that was hurt. A woman almost made a mess of them.

"Now quit yapping and get her ass on that chair and tie her up," he barked his orders before storming into the inner room of the warehouse.

As quickly as his orders came, his men got to work. They put Bai Renxiang on a chair and tired her up. Just as Zhixin wanted.

******

Li Xiaojin ran like never before. The tears falling from his eyes had no chance to make a mark on his face when the breeze blew them away.

His breaths came out sharp and short. He did not stop to look back at all. Not even when he tripped and rolled on the dirt a couple of times.

He picked himself up and ran. No time to brush off any dirt whatsoever. He could still hear the voices of the men chasing him so he willed himself not to stop.

His mother's effort to save him can't go to waste. No. There will be no excuse if he is captured again.

He ran until he heard nothing but his breaths and footsteps. He stopped to catch his breath. Due to a lack of strength, he fell on the floor. The grasses around did a good job of covering his small frame.

"Daddy, where are you? Oh God," his words came in the mix with his panting.

Just then he heard sounds from afar. It got louder as the source got closer. Li Xiaojin placed his palm across his mouth as he can't seem to get his voice down.

But then a thought came to his mind. What if he misses a chance of getting out of here and bringing people to save his mother?

With a little bit of doubt, he pushed himself back to his shaky feet and made his way out of the bush.

A car. Although familiar, he did not want to get his hopes up. As he waved his hand repeatedly, he also got ready to take off if he happened to attract the wrong person.

"Help! Help me!" He shouted with whatever strength he had left. "Help me, please."

The car came to a stop and the front passenger door flew open.

"Little boss Xiaojin. F*ck, it's him," Shang dashed to the kid.

"Uncle Shang. Save my mummy. Save my mummy," Li Xiaojin bawled his eyes out in tears.

It was both for help and relief. Relieved that the right person came to his rescue. He fell to the ground.

"Where did they take her? Where are you coming from? Where is your mother?" Shang fired a series of questions at Li Xiaojin.

"There. Far inside. A small house. Mummy stayed for me to run away and get help. They were shooting at each other. Go and save my mummy."
