Like a startled rabbit, he curled up in the corner of the car, looking forward with a gaze that was almost pleading.
He watched as the Bodyguards he had brought were roughly dragged out of the car by a group of fierce-looking men.
Trembling all over, Chen Tie pointed a shaking finger at the short-haired girl and cried out in a sobbing voice, "You... what do you actually want to do?"
His eyes were filled with despair and fear, as if he had already foreseen the tragic end that might follow.
As Chen Tie spoke, his eyes flickered incessantly while he quietly reached into his pants pocket, trying to pull out his phone.
However, his small movement, which he thought was stealthy, did not escape the sharp eyes of the crowd.
In an instant, the group's expressions turned grim; they moved quickly, swarming forward to roughly drag Chen Tie out of the car.
One of the burly men grabbed Chen Tie's arm tightly, pinning him in place.
Another person mercilessly snatched the phone from Chen Tie's hand, then skillfully popped open the back cover and pulled out the SIM card.
The entire process was smooth and efficient, without the slightest hesitation.
Seeing this scene, the short-haired girl walked over slowly, a cunning and cruel smile playing on her lips.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and said with a smile to the Leader standing nearby, "He wants to make a call. Quick, chop off his hand for me first."
Hearing this, Chen Tie felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning. He froze instantly, his eyes widening like copper bells, as if his eyeballs were about to pop out.
The muscles on his face twisted and contorted from extreme fear, taking on a truly hideous appearance.
With eyes full of terror, he stared at the short-haired girl before him—seemingly fragile and harmless, but in reality, as venomous as a viper.
His lips trembled violently, and even his voice shook as he stammered, "W-what did you say? This is illegal! Don't you know that? You can't do this to me! Please, let me go!"
As he spoke, he twisted his body with all his might, trying to break free from their grasp.
However, all his efforts were in vain. Faced with so many strong men, he was weak and helpless, lacking any ability to resist.
After he finished speaking, the short-haired girl let out a piercing laugh, as if she had heard the world's funniest joke.
She first covered her mouth with a light giggle, then burst into unrestrained laughter. Looking at Chen Tie with disdain, she mocked, "This is Tyrande. This whole area is Young Master Jiang's territory..."
As soon as she spoke, Chen Tie's eyes widened to their limit, filled with disbelief.
At the same time, a familiar face surfaced in his mind.
He never imagined that what he thought was just an ordinary trip would turn out to be a conspiracy carefully orchestrated by Jiang Cheng.
While he was still immersed in shock and disbelief, the burly men standing by grabbed Chen Tie's arms firmly without a word.
Their strength was immense, clamping down on him like iron pincers, making it impossible for him to move even an inch.
Then, one of them brandished a razor-sharp machete and swung it toward Chen Tie's wrist without hesitation.
With a flash of cold light, a heavy 'thud' sounded as it hit the ground, splashing blood, and Chen Tie's hand landed accordingly.
Bright red blood sprayed like a fountain, staining the ground beneath his feet a shocking crimson in the blink of an eye.
Unbearable pain swept through every corner of Chen Tie's body like a surging tide.
No longer able to suppress the fear and agony in his heart, he opened his mouth and let out a heart-wrenching, blood-curdling scream... Thanks to Big Boss [Username 82832425] for the Health Care!
