Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 874: Chapter 873 Human Nature

Zhao Ping’an watched the departing car, slowly nodded his head. After this incident, he had also recognized his own failing.

Being too kind and soft-hearted is not a good thing in the end!

”Master, this Min’er...” Zhao Ping’an said softly.

”You don’t need to worry about it.” Su Yang immediately shook his head, ”This time, you can also see for yourself what human nature is like.”

After that, Su Yang took out his phone, made a call to Hu Wannian, and gave him some instructions. Then, he continued following the car with Zhao Ping’an in tow.

The car eventually arrived at a motel in a suburban town, a few people checked into a room, and immediately took Min’er upstairs.

Half an hour later, the room was filled with all sorts of lewd talk. The woman was using all her tricks, trying to please these men as best as she could. After all, only if these men were satisfied would they take her to kill Zhao Ping’an and Su Yang.

Suddenly, a phone rang, and the leading man in the room picked up his mobile phone and frowned. But still, he went to the door and answered the call.

”What’s up?” the man asked in a deep voice.

”Hu Wannian just sent out a message, announcing that all non-family members and branch members who worked for the previous Ten Great Families, if they wish, can continue to stay in Hanxi Province and work for the New Ten Great Families. Moreover, the pay will be higher than before!” an excited voice came from the other end of the line.

”Really?” the man’s eyes immediately widened.

”Bullshit, many brothers have already gone to sign up, how can it be fake?” the person on the other end said.

”No, but... how is this possible?” the man said, ”We were people from the old Ten Great Families...”

”But we were not core members of the old Ten Great Families, right? They want to eliminate the core members only. I’m a branch member and never had much status in the family. You’re in a better position as you’re an outsider, so what’s there to fear? Besides, even though the New Ten Great Families have taken control of the old families’ businesses, they’ve never been involved with these industries before. Now that they’ve taken over abruptly, do you think they can manage? In the end, they still need our help; frankly, they want to recruit us to work for them.”

The man slowly nodded and said softly, ”Is this suitable?”

”What’s not suitable about it? Were the people at the Chen Family nice to you when you were with them? Do you have such a great debt of gratitude that you must remember and never forget it? I was bullied enough by the direct members of my family; their deaths actually give me a sense of relief. Anyway, by working for the New Ten Great Families, we can make even more money in the future. Or what, you still want to remain loyal to the Chen Family?”

”Nonsense, loyal to what? We’re just working for money,” the man said. ”But how do you know Hu Wannian isn’t just luring us over to wipe us out in one fell swoop?”

”Isn’t that obvious? When some of the Chen Family’s direct members are unaffected, why would they bother going after us, the branch members and outsiders? Use your brain when you do things; if the direct members can survive, why would they kill us?”

The man suddenly saw the light and his eyes sparkled with joy, ”That’s great, damn it, I was just worrying about how I was going to survive. I’ll be happy as long as I can maintain my previous pay, let alone an increase!”

”Don’t worry, it’s definitely better than before. I just asked a couple of guys who went over there, and their income has gone up by at least thirty percent, some even doubled theirs. The New Ten Great Families side is all about competencies; with your ability, you’d definitely get a good gig with them. Oh, and don’t forget about me later on!”

The man was overjoyed, ”Rest assured, aren’t we brothers? That goes without saying. I’ll see you later!”

Putting down his phone, the man wore an expression of sheer joy and rushed back into the room.

Inside the room, the few men were still entangled with Min’er. The leader went straight to one of them, slapped him on the butt, and cussed, ”Stop everything, motherfuckers, I’ve got news to announce!”

Everyone immediately stopped, with even Min’er looking up at the leading man.

”Listen up, we’re heading to Liu Family Manor soon. The New Ten Great Families are hiring us back to work for them!” the leader said with a smile, ”And the pay is much better than before!”

”What?”

”Is that really happening?”

”Are you kidding, we’re not going after them for revenge?”

The crowd erupted in exclamation, and Min’er’s eyes also widened in shock as she hurriedly said, ”Hey, weren’t we going to blow those two bastards up?”

The leading man glared, ”You idiots, with such an offer, what’s there to blow up? We wanted revenge because our livelihoods were destroyed. Now that they’re offering more money than before, why would we still hold a grudge against the Chen Family?”

Everyone immediately shook their heads. What a joke, they were just servants in the Chen Family; they had no loyalty to speak of.

”That’s right!” the leader shrugged, ”Pack up, we need to get back quickly. And remember to behave when we get there. I heard some people’s income doubled, at least there’s a thirty percent rise. Our brotherhood has always been reliable; I reckon our pay won’t be bad either!”

The crowd was ecstatic. Keeping their jobs was joy enough, and now they were getting a pay raise – how could they not be happy?

Min’er, however, was dumbfounded. She had been eagerly anticipating these men going to bomb Su Yang and Zhao Ping’an to death, and now what turned out to be like this?

She had exerted all her charm here, pleasing these men just to get her own revenge. But now what? Were these men turning their backs on her?

”Hey, so... you’re not going to blow them up anymore?” Min’er asked anxiously. ”You’re not seeking revenge anymore?”

”What revenge?” A man laughed, ”Damn it, we are going to be making more than before, we can’t be too happy!”

”But you said before that you would take revenge,” Min’er pressed. ”You... how can you lie to me? We’ve... we’ve already done so much, how can you deceive me!”

”What’s been done? It was your choice, what does it have to do with us?” A man laughed, ”Didn’t you enjoy it yourself?”

Min’er was so angry her face turned red and she scolded, ”You bastards, you... you’re just playing with me, I... I won’t let you get away with this...”

Suddenly, a sharp glint appeared in the eyes of the leader. He marched over to Min’er, grabbed her throat with one hand, and pressed her firmly onto the bed.

”You won’t let us get away with this?” the leader sneered, ”Did you think we would let you go? You filthy whore, you must die here!”
