Chapter 141 - I Am a Temp (2/2)

“Mob company! You will certainly receive your deserved punishment.”

The loud, cloying complaints echoed in the large auditorium, yet no one dared put any of their threats of retaliation into action. A reporter who resisted was beaten and had even lost a tooth. The security guards surrounding them held black batons and stared at them coldly like a bunch of demons. The reporters could only shout in protest, but they didn’t have the courage to do anything.

Zhang Dashan followed Xiao Luo’s previous order. He didn’t care about anything else or ask any questions. He just left the reporters out in the cold. He also told Feng Wuhen that he could deter anyone who dared cause trouble. He even authorized him to use violence if deterrence didn’t work. To the end of his order, he added, “this came from Brother Xiao,” which dispelled all of Feng Wuhen’s hesitations.

…

The reporters gradually quieted down since no one paid any attention to them. But they waited in the auditorium for three hours in extreme thirst and hunger.

A female reporter finally couldn’t stand it anymore. She stood up from her seat and ran to the auditorium door, wanting to leave.

Feng Wuhen stretched out his arm and blocked her, saying, “Miss, where do you think you’re going?”

“Get out of the way. I want to leave. You have no right to violate my freedom!”

The female reporter mustered her courage and yelled loudly, even though the man in front of her was the hefty fellow who’d knocked out another reporter’s tooth with one punch.

Feng Wuhen frowned and said, “That can’t happen. President Xiao is not here yet. None of you can leave.”

“I don’t want to meet him anymore. I want to leave. Get out of my way!” The female reporter bellowed with her teeth clenched.

“Hehe! Did you think that President Xiao was some random stray animal on the street that comes and goes at your pleasure?”

Feng Wuhen had been called a scourge back in the village. He was very experienced at playing the hooligan, although he had never committed any major crimes like a.s.sault or rape. Acting like a bandit, he said, “Since President Xiao has agreed to see you, it’s no longer up to you whether you meet him or not. Get the f*ck back and stay put. I’m a temp who has nothing to lose. Don’t pressure me into using force!”

He stepped forward with a vicious face and scared the female reporter back several steps. Eventually, she was defeated by Feng Wuhen’s gangster-like presence and returned to her seat in haste.

“Bullsh*t. You’re keeping us waiting here on purpose. To put it clearly, this is illegal confinement. We will sue you once we get out!” A male reporter with a full beard stood up and shouted at Feng Wuhen.

“Sue us?”

Feng Wuhen gave Xiaowu a look. Xiaowu immediately walked over and dragged the man with the beard from his seat to Feng Wuhen like a dog.

“You! What are you doing? I’m a journalist. What on earth are you doing?” The bearded man was frightened.

Pah!

Without saying another word, Feng Wuhen raised his hand, which was as big as a cattail leaf, and smacked the reporter in the face. The exceptionally resounding blow made the hearts of all the reporters in the auditorium tremble. They sat bolt upright in all seriousness.

After slapping the bearded man, Feng Wuhen grasped his collar like a punk and spat fiercely, “I already told you, I’m a temp. I could walk away from anything, even if I maimed you. Holding you here is nothing. You shut your mouth as I ordered and go wait for President Xiao quietly in your seat.”

Feng Wuhen shoved the bearded man away. Scanning the rest of the crowd of reporters with his cold eyes, he growled, “Do not cause any more f*cking trouble. Otherwise, I will give all of you a taste. It’s fine if you want to drink water. There is a water dispenser in the corner. But you will hold it if you need to pee. You will not leave this auditorium no matter what before President Xiao gets here.”

His last sentence was almost a roar. Matched with his ferocious face, it had quite a deterring effect.

None of the reporters dared to say anything more. They understood their current situation clearly. They were the fish on the chopping board, entirely at their captor’s mercy. Some of the female reporters were already shaking in fear
