Chapter 523: Chapter 516: Guts

Chen Bei was somewhat perplexed. He glanced again at Wu Chengzu through the rearview mirror. Wu Chengzu’s eyes were still closed, giving away no emotion.

Although he didn’t know why, since Wu Chengzu gave the word, Chen Bei had to stop the car.

Once the car was steady, Wu Chengzu opened his eyes and, opening the car door, said to Chen Bei, "Get out."

Chen Bei scratched his head, followed suit, and got out of the car.

Originally, they were going to the new factory on the city outskirts, traveling along desolate roads. Chen Bei truly didn’t understand why Wu Chengzu asked him to stop the car.

Wu Chengzu stepped out of the car and stood on the roadside curb, pulling a cigarette and lighter from his trousers pocket, lighting the cigarette and taking a deep drag.

Was it just to smoke? Chen Bei stood behind Wu Chengzu, staring at Wu Chengzu who was engulfed in smoke.

After finishing the cigarette, Wu Chengzu casually tossed it to the ground and snuffed it out with his foot.

"Chen Bei, come over here," Wu Chengzu said calmly.

Chen Bei obeyed and walked over, "Boss, everyone at the new factory is waiting for you. We should hurry..."

Suddenly, Wu Chengzu turned and aimed a harsh punch at Chen Bei’s head.

In one moment Chen Bei was speaking, and in the next, his jaw was knocked askew by Wu Chengzu’s fist.

"Ugh..." Chen Bei groaned, stumbling to the ground, clutching his jaw and looking at Wu Chengzu in shock, "Boss..."

Wu Chengzu’s expression was sinister. He didn’t say a word as he aimed fierce kicks at Chen Bei’s body.

Facing Wu Chengzu, who was in a violent frenzy, Chen Bei had no ability to resist. He could only protect his head with his hands and endure Wu Chengzu’s legs and fists.

Wu Chengzu was a Muay Thai expert. He knew exactly where to strike for maximum pain.

Initially, Chen Bei could still let out some wails, but once Wu Chengzu landed a kick to his face, he couldn’t make any sound.

"Mmm... Mmm..." Chen Bei whimpered, panic-stricken, wondering if Wu Chengzu intended to beat him to death today.

The final kick landed on Chen Bei’s back, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

At that moment, Chen Bei was only breathing out, not in.

His face was unrecognizable, and several teeth had been spat out along with the blood.

Wu Chengzu looked down at Chen Bei with the arrogance and chill of an enraged emperor, "You dared to act behind my back. At the very least, ensure I don’t find out about it!"

Chen Bei was stunned, his heart sinking. The only secret he kept from Wu Chengzu was the plan to kidnap Bai Yiran and her daughter with Mr. Dong.

He knew that, eventually, Wu Chengzu would find out. But by then, the deed would be done. In the end, it would benefit Wu Chengzu, who wouldn’t go crazy over a woman!

That’s what Chen Bei thought at the time. Wu Chengzu couldn’t decide, so Chen Bei decided for him! If anything happened, Chen Bei would take the blame!

Even faced with a beating from Wu Chengzu now, Chen Bei had no regrets!

If it could seize Leng Yichen by the throat, what was this small price?

"Boss... Bai Yiran... she will ruin you..." Chen Bei said with difficulty.

Bai Yiran was not only Leng Yichen’s weakness; she unknowingly became Wu Chengzu’s as well. Chen Bei felt it necessary to remove this obstacle for everyone.

Given Wu Chengzu’s anger, it seemed Mr. Dong succeeded.

With a bloody grin, Chen Bei lay on the ground, unable to sit up.

Wu Chengzu looked at him coolly, eyes mocking, "You think you’re clever? You think I refrain from acting against Bai Yiran because I fancy her?" Wu Chengzu chuckled coldly, "Mr. Dong failed; his men couldn’t get within ten meters of Bai Yiran!"

What! Chen Bei was stunned, feeling like a kite with its string cut, drifting pitifully in the wind.
