Chapter 89: The Attack

“Mr. Chen, we are very sorry about what happened last night, we have already investigated the matter. The two petty thieves from last night climbed over the wall to get in. We have already sent people to upgrade the residential area’s security system.”

Liu Changshan felt uneasy in his heart. He hadn’t expected that the person involved in last night’s incident was actually Chen Mo, the Chairman of the Legion Ant Company. This villa was even bought with the help of Zhao Min.

Now, the Legion Ant Company was the most promising star enterprise domestically, with limitless future prospects. If he made Chen Mo unhappy, he would also be in big trouble.

“I do not wish for such a thing to happen again,” Chen Mo said.

He said this just to put Xiaoyu at ease.

Two foreigners, after disguising themselves, easily sneaked into the residential area, and the security system didn’t notice at all. Ordinary petty thieves couldn’t possibly have such skill.

Xiaoyu was just an ordinary girl. Chen Mo didn’t want this incident to affect her.

“Alright, Mr. Chen, thank you for your understanding. We have already reported it to the police, and the relevant surveillance footage has been handed over to them, so we won’t trouble you further. Once we catch the people, I will notify you immediately.” Hearing that Chen Mo wasn’t going to pursue the matter, Liu Changshan felt a wave of relief.

“Mhm.” Chen Mo nodded, then turned to look at Xiaoyu beside him. “Let’s go to work.”

“Okay.”

Xiaoyu gave a small smile and didn’t say more, following Chen Mo into the car.

“Chairman, did something happen last night?” Wang Hai asked.

“Two people broke in. Luckily, we installed an early warning system in the villa. There was no loss, but those two got away,” Chen Mo said.

In his memory, this was the first time Wang Hai had actively asked him a question.

Along the way, Chen Mo kept thinking about the identities of the two foreigners from last night. Things definitely weren’t that simple. He wanted to see who was really pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Just as Chen Mo was lost in thought, a sound of sudden braking rang out. Chen Mo and Xiaoyu’s bodies jerked forward violently, their heads hitting the car seats.

Everything happened too suddenly. By the time Chen Mo regained his senses, Xiaoyu was already unconscious.

“What happened?”

Chen Mo shook his dizzy head. After confirming that Xiaoyu had only fainted, he relaxed a little.

“The other car braked suddenly on purpose. We rear-ended them. We might be in trouble,” Wang Hai said, his face looking unpleasant. The two men pointing guns at him made his body tense up.

Seeing the two foreigners, Chen Mo’s face also turned grim. Foreigners again, probably the same two from last night.

“They’re here for me,” Chen Mo said.

“Get out of the car,” Jack said as he walked up to the car window, his face cold.

“Let’s get out first.”

Chen Mo calmed himself down, opened the car door, and slowly stepped out. The other side had guns and were clearly prepared. His car wasn’t specially made and couldn’t stop bullets. Wang Hai gave a slight nod, unbuckled his seatbelt, and slowly opened his door. The moment he stepped out, Jack pressed a gun to his head.

“Jack, I told you my method would work, right? It’s this kid! Let’s grab him first, then we can get anything we want.” Boyle held a photo, baring his white teeth as he stared at Chen Mo.

“It worked, but next, we will also have…”

Bang!

Before Jack could finish his sentence, Wang Hai suddenly moved. He slapped away the gun pressed against his head and kicked towards Jack’s crotch.

Jack’s face changed. He hurriedly bent his knee to block Wang Hai’s kick. Just as he blocked it, Wang Hai instantly swept his leg, knocking the gun out of Jack’s hand. Seizing the initiative, Wang Hai didn’t hesitate. He bent his body and charged forward, throwing a punch aimed at Jack’s nose bridge. This lethal style of fighting was clearly not ordinary. Seeing the situation turning bad, Jack hurriedly retreated several steps to create distance.

“Damn it.”

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. Neither of them had expected Wang Hai to act so suddenly. When Boyle saw Jack’s gun get knocked away, he raised his own gun and aimed at Wang Hai.

Bang!

The moment he moved, he only felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and the gun flew from his hand. Before the gun even hit the ground, Boyle felt a tremendous force hit his abdomen. Excruciating pain swept through his whole body, sending him flying backwards.

“Chairman.” Wang Hai turned to look at Chen Mo, a trace of surprise in his eyes.

“I’ll handle this one. You take care of that one,” Chen Mo said, his face dark as he bent down, picked up the gun from the ground, and aimed it at Boyle.

“Damn, hurts worse than being sodomized.” Boyle wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stood up. Nearly two meters tall, he looked down coldly at Chen Mo. “Kid, you’ve definitely never used a gun before. The safety’s still on.”

Before Chen Mo could react, Boyle threw a punch aimed at Chen Mo’s face.

Chen Mo tried to pull the trigger but nothing happened. He hurriedly dodged Boyle’s punch, bent his elbow, and slammed it into Boyle’s abdomen.

These were all fighting techniques from his Potential Exploitation training. Since developing his human potential, he had never truly fought for real, but it seemed he had no choice now. It confirmed what Elder Shu had said: without the ability to protect oneself, no amount of wealth is useful.

“Damn it.”

Boyle hadn’t expected Chen Mo’s reaction to be so fast. Although his movements were still a bit unpracticed, he definitely had the makings of a skilled fighter.

On the other side, Jack’s face was as dark as water. Wang Hai’s attacks were too frightening. He had faced many opponents but never seen anyone so ruthless.

Every move targeted the most vital parts of the human body. Eyes, head, neck, heart, waist, and crotch. Every attack made Jack’s heart race with fear. If any hit landed solidly, it would mean death or serious injury.

He also hadn’t expected Chen Mo’s driver to be so terrifying. Could it really be true that everyone in Huaxia knew martial arts?

Jack felt bitter inside when he saw Chen Mo fighting Boyle.

Realizing he had been distracted, Jack’s face changed. A sharp pain came from his abdomen, and his body flew backwards uncontrollably, slamming hard onto the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood, clutched his stomach, and looked at Wang Hai with an unwilling glare.

Wang Hai slowly walked over, his face expressionless as he looked at Jack. He lifted his foot and kicked towards Jack’s head.

After dealing with Jack, Wang Hai turned with a cold face to look at Chen Mo and Boyle. He slowly walked over and picked up the gun from the ground.

“What a damn country.”

Boyle’s mood was getting worse and worse as he fought Chen Mo. As time passed, he noticed Chen Mo’s movements were becoming more and more skilled, and his strength was terrifyingly great.

He really couldn’t figure out how this seemingly ordinary young man possessed such terrifying power.

Suddenly, spotting Xiaoyu unconscious in the car, Boyle’s eyes turned vicious, and he rushed towards the car door!

Chen Mo’s face changed, and he hurriedly chased after him.

Argh!

Before Boyle could get near the car door, a sharp pain shot through his calf, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground. Chen Mo seized this opportunity, sweeping his leg towards Boyle’s head.

The next moment, Boyle lay limp on the ground, unconscious. Wang Hai held the gun, dragged Jack by the feet, dumped the two men together, and bound them with a belt.

“Thank you,” Chen Mo said, glancing at the gunshot wound on Boyle’s calf which was bleeding.

“It’s my duty,” Wang Hai said.

“I’ll go check on Xiaoyu. You keep an eye on them.”

Watching the SWAT vehicles approach, Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief. From the start of their fight until now, it had only been about five minutes. But those five minutes felt like a very long time.

“Don’t move! Drop your weapon!”

As soon as the police cars stopped, officers drew their guns and aimed at Wang Hai’s location. Wang Hai threw the gun in his hand far away and raised both hands.

Seeing the SWAT team surround them, Wang Hai then spoke up. “These two are mercenaries. You’d better check if they have poison hidden in their mouths.”

“Check them,” the Team Leader said, giving Wang Hai a deep look.

“Nothing found,” two SWAT officers reported after a moment.

“Take them back first, and secure the scene.”
