ABCFWGR Chapter 75

 "I won't make the call!"

Chen Yuwei refused decisively.

Since they had severed ties, she wouldn't contact him again. Besides, the current situation was not ideal, and she didn't want Gu Chen to risk his life.

"Do you dare to refuse? Are you not afraid I'll crush your heart like I did just now?" Zhang Tieshou threatened.

Fear flashed in Chen Yuwei's eyes, but she remained silent, her face tense.

Without wasting any words, Zhang Tieshou reached out to open the cage, but the outcome was predictable.

Several cages away, Chen Wantai became anxious and shouted, "Zhang Tieshou, don't touch my daughter! Let me make the call!"

"Bang!"

A guard from the Li family slammed his stick against the cage and cursed, "You bastard, even addressing Master Zhang by name? If you dare to disrespect him again, I'll kill you!"

Chen Wantai shrank back in fear and quickly changed his tone, "Master Zhang, it was my mistake. Please let me make the call."

"Father and daughter are quite affectionate. I'm not heartless. I'll give you this chance." Zhang Tieshou turned and walked towards him.

Chen Yuwei complained, "Dad, how could you do this?"

"Yuwei, Gu Chen is no good person. Why are you protecting him? He was the one who caused me and your mother to divorce, and now he's the reason we're in this mess. Do you want our Chen family to die with him?" Chen Wantai shouted angrily.

"Your father is right. Gu Chen has already broken ties with our Chen family. There's no need to protect him. It's better for him to die than for all of us to die." Chen Qianchuan echoed.

"Yuwei, it's fine if you seek death on your own, but don't harm me and our precious baby. Our precious baby is still young, and there's a bright future waiting for him." He Xiumei twisted her face.

Chen Lao Ye didn't say anything, but his attitude was clear.

The servants also pleaded, "Miss, we're innocent. Please have mercy on us and don't drag us to our deaths."

As they spoke, some began to cry.

No one wanted to die!

Chen Yuwei opened her mouth to speak but swallowed her words back.

Indeed, she didn't have the right to represent everyone.

"This is getting interesting!"

Zhang Tieshou grinned mischievously, pulling his small beard.

A bunch of fools, still hoping to leave alive? It was simply wishful thinking. Once Gu Chen walked into the trap, they would all die.

Chen Wantai couldn't remember Gu Chen's number on his phone.

Finally, he had a flash of inspiration and called Jiang Rou.

"Hello? Who is this?"

Jiang Rou's voice came from the phone, still half asleep.

She was sleeping peacefully despite their dire situation?

Chen Wantai's mind became extremely unbalanced, shouting, "How can you sleep soundly? Don't you know that everyone in our Chen family has been ruined by Gu Chen?"

"Chen Wantai, are you sick? Chen Er didn't leave the house all night. How could he have harmed you?" Jiang Rou sat up in bed, her face full of displeasure.

Was this still his wife?

Chen Wantai was so angry he couldn't speak, panting heavily.

"You useless fool, can't even explain a simple thing clearly!"

Annoyed, Zhang Tieshou snatched the phone and said, "Whoever you are, tell Gu Chen to come to the Li family's residence in the provincial capital immediately. If he doesn't come, everyone in the Chen family will die because of him!"

After speaking, he hung up the phone directly.

"Just a simple task, and you had to blabber on. You couldn't even explain it clearly."

Before leaving, Zhang Tieshou was so annoyed that he slapped Chen Wantai.

Chen Wantai winced in pain, covering his face, too angry to speak.

Meanwhile.

Jiang Rou was fully awake now, although she couldn't believe it, she could tell from the conversation that the situation was serious.

Such a big incident couldn't be handled by a single woman.

She quickly got out of bed and went to knock on Gu Chen's bedroom door.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

Gu Chen could tell from Jiang Rou's face that something was wrong and asked quickly.

"Chen Er, have you offended someone outside?" Jiang Rou held his hand nervously.

This question actually stumped Gu Chen. He had offended quite a few people, but he didn't know who Jiang Rou was referring to.

"Mom, why would you say that?"

Jiang Rou grabbed his arm and said sternly, "Chen Er, don't try to deceive me. The other party dared to kidnap people. How could it be just a scare tactic?"

"Just now, I purposely called the landline at the old Chen residence, but no one answered. This means the other party didn't even spare the servants. I can't let you take the risk!"

She had been a housewife for so many years, but that didn't mean she was foolish.

"Jiang Yi, have I ever lied to you before?" Gu Chen couldn't explain too much. After all, it wasn't something he could explain in just a few words.

Jiang Rou shook her head.

"So it's the same this time."

Gu Chen smiled and pushed her out of the room, starting to change his clothes.

Jiang Rou stood at the door, feeling conflicted and unsure of what to do.

Soon, Gu Chen changed his clothes and came out, got into the car, and prepared to leave.

Jiang Rou still felt uneasy and decided to go with him.

But Gu Chen didn't agree, mainly because he was afraid of scaring her. After comforting her, he sped away.

Meanwhile.

Zhang Tieshou supported a young man with bandages on his head and returned to the warehouse.

"Third Young Master, these are the Chen family members, very close to Gu Chen," Zhang Tieshou introduced.

Li Chen's cold gaze swept over everyone in the cages, making them feel uneasy. Especially Chen Wantai and his daughter Chen Yuwei. While others didn't recognize Li Chen, they witnessed the whole incident at the banquet and knew that this was the notorious Third Young Master of the Li family.

"You—what's your relationship with Gu Chen?" Li Chen pointed to the cage closest to him and asked.

The person in the cage showed panic and said, "I... I don't know the person you're talking about. I'm just a servant of the Chen family."

Li Chen nodded and then turned to the guards. "Since he has no relation to Gu Chen, keeping him here is a waste of air. Drag him out and feed him to the dogs."

"No, please, I'm innocent! You can't take lives recklessly..." The servant struggled desperately.

A guard stabbed him in the lower back with a knife.

After a scream, he fell silent.

Then, they dragged him away.

Witnessing all this, the remaining people's faces changed color, and they hurriedly hid in the corners, praying that the next one wouldn't be them.

But unfortunately, Li Chen had no intention of stopping.

He pointed to another cage and said, "You—what's your relationship with Gu Chen?"

Learning from the previous example, this person didn't dare to answer.

"Useless! Can't even speak? Drag him out and feed him to the dogs." Li Chen impatiently ordered.

Hearing this, the person in the cage knelt down and begged for mercy, "Have mercy! I don't want to die, I..."

The result was the same as before.

The rest of the people were completely stunned, their faces pale, and their legs trembling.

"This is boring!" Li Chen sneered, his gaze constantly wandering. "Let me see who's next."

Who he pointed at would die. Who dared to avoid his gaze? 

"Lift everyone's heads. If anyone dares to turn away, drag them out and feed them to the dogs."
