My sister-in-law from Qingdao

I was really scared at that moment.

If it were the police, I might have been arrested. Even if it was in self-defense, I still injured four people with a knife.

If they were Wu Gang's men, I'd probably be beaten to death by them.

"Xiao Dong, listen to your sister-in-law, quickly hide in the closet. I told you, if you leave, what can they do to me?"

My sister-in-law didn't care whether I wanted to or not. She opened the closet in her bedroom and pushed me in by the back.

"Don't make a sound, just quietly crouch inside, it'll be fine."

My sister-in-law's eyes were red. She nodded at me, gave me another word of advice, and then closed the cupboard door.

I squatted in that small space, feeling my heart pounding so hard it was about to jump out of my chest. A moment later, I heard my sister-in-law open the door.

"Where's your husband's brother? Tell him to come out here."

After I opened the door, I heard a group of people walk in from outside, and a cold, chilling voice rang out.

"My husband's younger brother has passed away. Someone stabbed him, and he went to the hospital."

"You're talking nonsense. Our brothers have been watching downstairs at your house the whole time, and they haven't seen him come down at all. Make him come out right now, or don't blame us for being impolite."

After the voice finished speaking, there was a loud bang.

It must have been the sound of a glass or something breaking.

"What are you trying to do? This is illegal, I've already called the police."

The sister-in-law's voice rang out, filled with anger.

"Fine, you think we're scared if we call the police? If you do, your husband's brother will go to jail. He injured four of us."

"What are you doing? Let go of me! Don't touch me!"

My sister-in-law's voice rang out again, filled with fear and sadness.

I was hiding in the closet and couldn't see anything, but I could vaguely see several bad men surrounding my sister-in-law, groping her body with incredibly lewd eyes.

Forgetting my sister-in-law's instructions, I couldn't stay any longer. I suddenly pulled open the closet and quickly walked out of the bedroom.

Sure enough, the man was tugging at my sister-in-law, but it wasn't as I had imagined; her clothes were still relatively intact.

"Let go of my sister-in-law, or I'll fight you to the death."

The cleaver was still on the table next to me, so I just grabbed it.

There were six or seven of them, each of them tall and strong, with evil faces.

The person at the very front wasn't very tall. He was wearing a black vest that revealed his well-developed chest muscles, had short hair, and a cold, aloof look in his eyes.

He turned to Wu Gang and asked, "Was it him who killed you all?"

His tone was questioning, as if he didn't quite believe it.

"Brother Long, it was him, he's the one who killed the four of us."

"Then what are we waiting for? Go! Take him away! I want to see just how capable he is."

Wang Long waved his hand, and several of his henchmen surrounded me.

I raised the cleaver in my hand and backed away, saying, "I just chopped down four. You guys come at me, I'm not afraid of you."

Clearly, these people were well-trained and much more capable than Wu Gang and his group.

Before I could even raise my knife, it was kicked away.

When I came to my senses, the two of them had already restrained me.

"take away."

Wang Long gave me a sharp look and then said.

"Please, please let him go! Don't take him away!"

The sister-in-law stepped forward and knelt down before Wang Long and the others with a thud.

"Sister-in-law, it's alright. We live in a society governed by law now. They wouldn't dare do anything to me."

Although I was terrified, I still said those words.

"You're pretty stubborn, but you'll see when you meet our big brother."

The sister-in-law immediately hugged Wang Long's legs.

"Brother, it's just that he owes you money. I'll sell my house and car to pay you back, okay? Please, just let him go."

My sister-in-law's words touched me deeply. Even when my cousin was forced to run away in the middle of the night, she never mentioned selling the house or the car.

"I didn't realize you were treating this pretty boy so well. Is he really your brother-in-law? I suspect you two are having an affair."

Wang Long reached out and shoved his sister-in-law away, saying with a sneer.

I was being held up by two people, and I had no strength to resist at all.

As they reached the door, Wang Long turned back to his sister-in-law and said, "Listen to me carefully, you'd better not call the police. If you do, you can expect to be collecting their corpses."

I don't even know how I got downstairs or how I was shoved into the car. When I came to my senses, I was being carried by several people through a dimly lit underground parking garage.

I don't know where I am, I just feel extremely scared.

After entering the elevator from the underground parking garage, I took another elevator into a huge room.

Two men in black suits stood at the door of the room, heads tilted back, eyes fixed straight ahead, emanating a chilling aura that instilled fear.

The group stopped at the door. Wang Long went in and came out again shortly after. With a flick of his finger, two men supporting me pushed me inside.

The room was large. In front of the entrance was a screen wall with a hand-painted image of a Bodhisattva. Below it was a small table with an incense burner containing three sticks of incense. On the other side was a sculpture of Guan Yu carved from rosewood.

A faint sandalwood scent wafted in the air.

At the front is a huge bookcase, and in front of the bookcase is a chicken-wing wood desk.

On the other side is a tea table made of tree roots, and a man who looks to be around fifty years old sits on a Song Dynasty-style armchair.

He wasn't very tall, was somewhat thin, and was wearing a white Tang suit. He was holding two walnuts in his hand, which were making a clanging sound.

His eyes were extremely stern, and the moment he saw me, I instinctively shrank back.

"Brother, I've brought the person to you, but he doesn't seem as powerful as the legends say."

Wang Long walked up to the man and said very respectfully.

The man nodded, tilted his head, sized me up, and said, "So it's you. You injured four of my brothers with a kitchen knife. Pretty fierce, huh?"

The man had a very magnetic voice, and as soon as he spoke, my fear inexplicably lessened by a fraction.

"Kill me or torture me, it's all up to you now. Do what you want with me. There's nothing more to say."

I don't know why I said such bold words; it felt very chivalrous.

The man smiled calmly, put the walnuts in his hand aside, picked up a cigarette from the side, lit it, took a deep drag, and exhaled.

"Is Chen Fang your cousin?"

"Yes, I am his cousin."

"Your cousin borrowed money from me and hasn't paid it back, and he's run away. What am I supposed to do? Am I just going to give up my five million yuan?"

The man stood up, crossed one arm over his chest, and held a cigarette in the other, pacing back and forth in front of me as he spoke.

"I don't care about that. Whoever owes you money, go find them and ask them for it. You can't bully my sister-in-law. If your men hadn't bullied my sister-in-law, I wouldn't have taken a knife to them."
