Chapter 5

Ah...

The young man in black clutched his mouth and screamed in agony, his lips smashed and several front teeth knocked out, making his cries sound particularly terrifying in the dark night.

"Shut up, or I'll keep hitting you," Liu Feng still smiled, but his right hand, holding the gun, lifted again.

Uh!

The young man in black was obedient enough to actually endure the intense pain and suppress his screams.

"Damn! Park Jin-sul, is that all the courage you have? I don't like seeing you like this! You deserve to be beaten!" Liu Feng cursed again, and the gun's bolt fell once more.

Bang... Crack!

This time, the bolt hit the young man's shoulder, breaking his scapula with a crisp sound.

Ah...

Another scream of agony.

"Damn, I told you to shut up, but you still screamed!"

Bang!

Ah...

"Damn! Try screaming again, and I'll break your neck," Liu Feng lifted the gun's bolt again.

"I won't scream anymore, but you have to keep your word and stop hitting me," the young man in black shouted, his tone slightly stiff, clearly not a native Chinese speaker.

Liu Feng's right hand turned, and the 1.5-meter-long M4 sniper rifle, like a light vine, rotated 180 degrees, with the bolt on top and the muzzle pointing down.

"If you want me to stop hitting you, answer my questions honestly," Liu Feng pressed the muzzle to the young man's forehead. "Tell me, why did you shoot at me just now?"

"Because the boss ordered it. We were only to kill doctors. Anyone who could possibly treat Yang Shiwen was to be killed immediately. Only by letting Yang Shiwen die of her illness would it be a deterrent to the Yang family," the young man said.

"Wow, your boss is quite interesting. Who is he?" Liu Feng asked.

The young man in black shook his head repeatedly. "I don't know. I'm just a lone wolf, taking on tasks and doing them."

"A lone wolf? You're just a small fry, not even worthy of calling yourself a lone wolf," Liu Feng sneered. "Since you know nothing, you have no value to me!"

"No, I have value, I have..."

Buzz!

At that moment, the young man's pocket suddenly buzzed and emitted a light.

Liu Feng bent down and pulled out a phone from the young man's pocket. The phone had no caller ID, only a string of password stars.

"This is my boss's number. Please don't kill me," the young man in black pleaded in his stiff tone.

"Shut up!" Liu Feng glared at the young man and pressed the answer button.

"Hello! Park Jin-sul, where are you now?" A middle-aged man's voice came from the phone.

Liu Feng: "..."

"Why aren't you speaking?" The middle-aged man on the other end asked.

"I'm in a safe place, but I'm injured," Liu Feng prepared and spoke in the young man's stiff tone. "This mission is tough. I encountered an expert. If I continue, I need more money."

"Money is not a problem. Just keep an eye on the Yang family. Anyone who can diagnose the young miss's illness and has a chance to treat her must be killed without hesitation. I'll triple your fee, and the money will be in your account within three days."

"Alright, it's settled."

Beep!

The call was hung up by the other party.

"Interesting, the other side is quite cunning, paying in three days!" Liu Feng's lips curled into a cold smile. "Park Jin-sul, your boss is just playing with you. If I hadn't cured Yang Shiwen today, she would have died tomorrow, hehe!"

"Big... Big Brother, I don't want money. I can give you all my money. Can you let me live?" Park Jin-sul asked in fear.

Liu Feng smiled and said, "No, I'm not in a bad mood, so I'll give you two choices. Do you want to die slowly or quickly?"

"I... I haven't lived enough!"

"Even if the King of Hell calls for you to die at midnight, who can keep you alive until dawn? You haven't lived enough, but there's nothing you can do. If you can be a good person in your next life, that would be better!"

Puff!

Half a minute later, gunshots rang out in the small forest, of course, filtered through a silencer.

Around 8 PM, Liu Feng returned to the Yang family's residence. However, Yang Ding was already waiting at the entrance of the mansion, with a group of bodyguards and security guards behind him. The two doctors were not there, clearly having been sent away by Yang Ding.

When Liu Feng returned in the drizzle, Yang Ding immediately held up an umbrella and ran out from the gate, "Xiao Feng, you're finally back. You cured my precious daughter, I'm so grateful! By the way, did you catch the gunman?"

Yang Ding's action almost stunned everyone present.

"Damn! Who is this young man? The boss is actually holding an umbrella for him!"

"Did you hear that? The boss said this young man cured the young miss!"

"Damn! This guy is really impressive. But when did he go in to treat the young miss? We, the security guards, didn't know anything about it!"

At this point, everyone in the Yang family's mansion learned of Liu Feng's existence.

Liu Feng naturally didn't care about what others said. He just looked at Yang Ding and smiled, "I caught him, but he's already a corpse. You need to send someone to deal with it."

Uh!

Yang Ding was stunned for a moment, then quickly pulled Liu Feng inside, "Let's go inside and talk."

Thus, under everyone's watchful eyes, Yang Ding and Liu Feng shared an umbrella and walked side by side into the gate, through the courtyard, and into the villa.

From that moment on, everyone in the Yang family's mansion, from the security captain to the maids and servants, knew about Liu Feng.

That night, Liu Feng was in Yang Ding's office.

"Old Yang, don't worry. The eight-inch needles didn't break inside your daughter. Actually, those needles weren't real gold needles but made from the juice of the golden grass. The needle tips broke because the medicinal properties of the golden grass were absorbed by her body."

"Ah, I see! Xiao Feng, your medical skills are truly amazing, thank you so much..."

"No need to thank me. Now, let's talk about your family's troubles. Your daughter was poisoned, and someone shot at your family. Your troubles must be significant. Tell me about it."

"The troubles are indeed significant. Our Dingsheng Group bought a piece of land in the Arab region, originally for a tourism project. But we found a huge oil reserve underground. This is energy, something that major financial groups and even powerful countries are vying for... So many forces I've never dealt with before are now targeting me..."

According to Yang Ding, those who approached him for cooperation either threatened or tempted him. There were more than just a few. As a Chinese person with roots in China, how could he sell the energy to foreign forces? Because of this, some foreign forces were angry with him.

In recent times, Yang Ding had already experienced three assassination attempts. If it weren't for his capable bodyguards, he would have been dead long ago. Clearly, Yang Shiwen's poisoning was also a form of malicious retaliation against Yang Ding.

However, having navigated the business world for so many years, Yang Ding was not one to back down. Now that Liu Feng was here, becoming his daughter's personal bodyguard, he no longer had any worries and was preparing to counterattack.

"Do you need my help?" Liu Feng smiled. "If you do, I can quickly resolve all your problems, consider it as completing my task early."

"No, no, no! I think I can handle some things myself for now. At worst, I'll transfer the land to the state. Right now, I only hope you can protect Shiwen. She'll be 20 in six months. I believe in fate, and only after she passes the age of 20 can I be at ease," Yang Ding said.

"Alright, if you can't handle it, just let me know. I have more ways to deal with those foreign scum."

"Good!"

The two talked in the office for over two hours before coming out.

"Xiao Feng, your room is on the third floor, opposite Shiwen's room, for your convenience in protecting her. Get some rest early tonight," Yang Ding accompanied Liu Feng to the stairs and pointed upward.

"Okay!" Liu Feng nodded and turned to walk up the stairs.

"Wait, Xiao Feng, don't tell Shiwen about what I told you today. I don't want her to know these things; I just want her to grow up happily."

"Alright!" Liu Feng responded without turning back, then seemed to remember something important. "By the way, be careful with the two doctors you invited today."

After hearing Liu Feng's words, Yang Ding fell silent for a moment. After a while, he took out his phone and dialed a number, "Investigate..."
