"Arghhhh—!!!"
A piercing scream of a woman echoes inside the empty building as quietness engulf over Imperial. However, only the people inside can hear the scream. No one cared about the person who scread, nor did they show any pity.
Julia clench her jaw tightly as tears stream down her cheeks. Her face was pale like the dead and breathing in a crazy rapid speed. Her sweat blended in with the blood on her body.
After Lu Tian asked the third ti where Chu Li Xiang was, she used every ounce of energy in her to curse him dead.
As a result, her fingers were broken one at a ti. It wasn’t done fast but in a rather slow and painful way. Her only finger that is still able to move is her right pinky, but she knows that it wouldn’t be long until that finger joins the rests.
She glares at Lu Tian with red eyes and her hoarse voice screams at him.
"Kill ! I rather die than tell you anything!!"
*Ring Ring*
Suddenly, the sound of a phone rings inside the building. Lu Tian reach into his pocket and takes the phone out. Glancing at the caller’s na, he answers the call and put the phone near his ear.
["Boss, he’s here."]
The person from the other line spoke quickly into the phone.
["Chu Li Xiang and his n are parked near Beauty."]
Lu Tian sounds a simple ’mm’ and ends the call. Seems like it was pointless in capturing Chu Li Xiang’s woman. Since the man has shown himself, there’s no need for her anymore.
He doesn’t give the father and daughter another glance, but looks at the two n who brought Doctor Xie in.
"Burn them."
Without waiting for an answer, he turns around and walks in the direction he ca from.
"No! Wait! You can’t kill !! If you do, you will go to jail!!! LU TIAN!!!"
Doctor Xie who had been quiet since the breaking of Julia’s fingers finally spoke. He screams after Lu Tian’s departing figure. He is a prisoner awaiting his trial, if Lu Tian kills him, the man will be charge with first degree murder.
Knowing that he might have a chance at not getting burn alive, he must take a chance. After all, Lu Tian is a businessman, he should know what is good for him if he doesn’t want to be behind bars.
However.... What Doctor Xie got in return was not what he had expected.
Lu Tian gives him the cold shoulder without pausing in his steps and continues to walk out of the building.
Because who was Lu Tian? Ah, that’s right. He is the person the governnt sends to do the dirty deed. Doctor Xie is a prisoner charge with many murders, his death is not importance as it ans one less criminal to deal with.
Both Julia and Doctor Xie were left with widen eyes as the man who holds their life disappears out the building. Neither thought that they would ever fall into a hopeless state like this.
As they were stuck in a daze, the two n Lu Tian ordered walks to the two beaten up people. Since they had already splash gasoline on Doctor Xie, all they had to do was light the fire.
One man sparks a zippo lighter and flicks it at Doctor Xie’s legs. He did not bat an eye as if he had done this many tis.
*Swoooosh—*
"Arrhhhh—!!!!"
Fire quickly surface in a flash as Doctor Xie cries horrifyingly at the fast burning sensation on his legs. Even if his hands and legs were broken, that didn’t an he couldn’t feel the pain on the other parts of his body.
Julia’s eyes flash with fear as she watch her bastard father burn alive. Are they planning to make her watch him burn?
Thinking this, she sneers inside. This is what he gets for treating her like a piece of shit.
So what if she gets burn, she will have a better chance at surviving since he would die before her. Once the fire burns the rope tying her to the chair, she will use that chance to escape.
However, what happens next froze her in place. The fire continues to spread up to Doctor’s Xie back. Yet, he wiggles his way towards Julia like a crazy monster with eyes full of red veins.
"If I’m going to die, I’m taking a bitch like you with !!"
"No!!! Get away from !! Get away!!"
Julia shouts in panic and struggles to free herself. However, her struggle to move only brought her closer to the burning man.
*Thud*
She falls to the side with a loud thud and her eyes widen more. Before she could even struggle again, Doctor Xie grins like a crazy maniac and wrap his arms around her legs.
The flas intensifies and transfers onto her body.
In that mont, she recalls Chu Qiang’s words. She should have listened to him.
’Julia, if you really do love him, you of all people should know what’s best for him.’
If she had listened and stopped Chu Li Xiang’s plan, she wouldn’t be slowly dying like this. However, it was too late for regrets.
Tears roll down her cheeks as the burning pain was more painful that when was getting beaten up or having her fingers broken.
"Arrrhhhh—"
Her shrieking cry rings into the sky as the tal door opens, but that sound was quickly silence as the door shuts.
Lu Tian casually walks away from the building in the direction of Beauty as if the two people inside were not being burned alive.
Behind him followed five mbers of Wolf Team who also left the building to join him.
He slightly raise his hand to check the ti on his watch.
"Thirty-minutes."
Murmuring those words to himself, one of his subordinate hands him a pistol. He takes the gun and continues in his steps as he puts on an earpiece.
There is 30 minutes left until his wife goes on stage. He needs to wrap this up, so he doesn’t disappoint her by not being there.
His pace quickens in big strides as he press the button on the earpiece.
"All units, move in."
In the quiet night of Imperial, five van slowly pulls up to a nearby corner of Beauty. However, no one steps out of the vehicles.
Inside the third parked van, Chu Li Xiang sat in the passenger seat. He did not look out the window but stares down at his phone with a frown.
The ti they agreed on has already arrived, so why hasn’t Julia called him?
She should have gotten inside Beauty without any problems and lure Lu Tian out.
*knock knock*
Suddenly, his thoughts are disturbed as a faint knock sounds from the passenger window. He looks up and his frown deepens.
The face of a dirty holess man with a blanket covering the top half of his head cos to view.
Chu Li Xiang scoffs in disgust and ignores the holess man. He looks back down at his phone and decides to call Julia.
However, the call went straight to voicemail.
He pout his lip and ponder in thought. Sothing doesn’t seem to be right. Every ti he calls her, she will always pick up at the first ring.
*knock knock*
"....."
Another set of knock sounds again, but Chu Li Xiang does not look at the person. He takes a deep breath and orders his n.
"Soone get a hold of Julia."
"Yes Boss!"
The n in the sa car as him quickly takes their phone out to call the red hair woman. However, in the end, no one was able to get in contact with her.
"Boss, she’s not answering."
"Mine went straight to voicemail."
"Mine too."
"Bitch!!!"
Chu Li Xiang rose into rage and throws his phone at the dashboard.
What in the world is Julia doing that she cannot answer his call?
Unfortunately, he does not know that his woman is slowly burning alive in a building not far from his location.
*knock knock*
A third set of knock cos to Chu Li Xiang’s ears again and this ti adding more rage to him. He glares at the window and swung the door open.
"What the fuck do you want?!"
He shouts at the dirty man and grabs the collar of the holess man’s torn shirt. His movent caused the already torn shirt to rip more, but he doesn’t care.
"Do you know who you are fucken irritating??!"
The holess man lower his head in fear and shoulders tremble like he had co across the most terrifying monster.
"Get lost fucken piece of trash!!"
Chu Li Xiang scoffs and shoves the man with a strong push. A thought cos to him. Killing this holess man will surely lessen his anger.
However, before he could move....
"I know exactly who you are."
Suddenly, the trembling holess mutters in a low voice that only Chu Li Xiang can hear. His head was still down as the blanket shadows the top half of his face.
Chu Li Xiang furrow his brows but was quickly alert by the words. He reach behind him for his gun but was a step too late.
The blanket over the holess man falls back like everything had turned into a slow motion. A handso face sared in dirt cos to view as his lips curl into a grin.
"But do you know who I am?"
His voice sounds as one arm grabs one end of the blanket. Swiftly double wrapping it tightly around Chu Li Xiang’s neck, he secures the ends with one hand while his other hand pulls out a gun with an attach silencer.
*Pu!*
Before any of the people inside the van could react, a bullet shoots straight into the driver’s head as the glass window shatters loudly.
"FUCK!!"
