Chapter 712 A little too much (1/2)
In the distance not too far from Uncle Nuo's food stall, Tao Meng, and his men along with Ling Ni arrived at their parked cars. Xiao's anger did not subdue at all. He stops next to the passenger side of the first car and turns to look at his boss.
”I don't understand. Why did we have to run away like cowards? We were all carrying guns. We could have just put a bullet inside their head.”
Tao Meng was helping Ling Ni inside the back seat of the first car. When he heard his subordinate's words, he closes the door and stretches his hand to grabs the skinny man.
His palm locks around Xiao's throat and he slams the man against the car.
”You dare to call me a coward?!”
His bloodshot eyes glare viciously at Xiao and he leans closer until the space between their faces were only inches apart.
”You should be thanking those men back there for not blowing your head.”
He growls each word with a graveness that sent a shiver down Xiao's spine. He (Xiao) was so afraid but inhales a deep breath and stares straight at his boss.
”T-They're nobodies. They were only acting that way because the Mad Reaper was there. We could have easily taken him out and clean up the mess without anyone knowing.”
Tao Meng chuckles when he heard this. It was like Xiao's words had hit the jackpot of correctness. However, seconds into his laugh, his grip on the man's neck tightens.
”They're nobodies?”
He leans an inch closer with sinister in his eyes.
”Those 'nobodies' were able to knock you down with one punch. Don't forget, those 'nobodies' also made you drop your gun with a tiny needle.”
Another chuckle escapes after his words, but this time, it was one full of sarcasm.
”If I didn't stop you from making a mistake, those 'nobodies' would have collected your fate before you could even remember to blink.”
He ruthlessly let's go of Xiao's neck and pulls the back door open. He doesn't care about his cold attitude towards the man and gets inside the car.
”Make another mistake and you won't be breathing the air in this world.”
Xiao stood still outside the car. His breathing turned rapid as legs grew weak and were barely able to hold him up. He swore, it felt like his boss was not going to hesitate to strangle him to death.
However, it wasn't his boss that shook him this way. It was the one word the man had said.
Fate.
The one word that sends fear upon those in the underworld. It was the word that is only used when involving the notorious devil gang that left the underworld.
He inhales a deep breath that caused his body to tremble. He opens the door and enters, but the moment he sat down, his eyes flash murderously.
He has never witnessed anyone from Fate act in public, so it must be a rumor only.
With this thought, a plan surface in his mind.
When he went with Tao Meng to the meeting last time, he remembers that the foundation of Fate was practically abandoned with an old man watching over the place.
He will burn that place to the ground and return the shame Fate had inflicted upon him.
