C136 Lin Yin's Fury

"Please, I'm begging you, I didn't mean to make a mistake. I'm old, please have mercy on me!" Old Man Ding pleaded through tears, looking utterly pitiful as he continuously kowtowed.

Zhang Qimo's brow furrowed slightly, feeling a bit uncomfortable with the situation. An elderly man kowtowing to her repeatedly was quite an awkward predicament.

"Let it go, Butler Li. Considering his age, just let him off," Zhang Qimo suggested.

"Yes, Mrs. Lin," Lee Pu responded with respect.

Then, Lee Pu cast a cold glance at Ding Shenyi and delivered a harsh kick.

"At your age, you still have no shame, attempting to kidnap someone?" Lee Pu scoffed disdainfully. He barely wanted to waste his time on such a person.

Since Mrs. Lin had spoken, he decided to release them. Later, he would call the young master and inform him of the incident!

"Thank you, Miss Zhang, for your kindness and understanding!" Ding Shenyi exclaimed, kowtowing in gratitude.

Zhang Qimo turned her attention away from Ding Shenyi and addressed Liu Jun and his brothers, "Big Brother Liu, thank you for your assistance. Please, come to my house for a cup of tea."

"It's the least we could do. Mrs. Lin, have a safe journey," Liu Jun replied with a courteous smile, not daring to accept the honorific of 'big brother' from Mrs. Lin.

Without further ado, Zhang Qimo turned to Lee Pu and said firmly, "Butler Li, let's head back to the villa."

"Of course," Lee Pu agreed, nodding solemnly and stepping back.

As Lee Pu was about to turn away, Ding Shenyi made his move, flinging a handful of lime from his sleeve, which burst into a white cloud that enveloped Lee Pu's face.

Enraged, Lee Pu spun around, intent on confronting the despicable act, but he was momentarily choked by the lime dust, coughing twice.

In that brief moment, Ding Shenyi seized the opportunity and charged at Zhang Qimo. He pulled a handgun from his jacket pocket and aimed it straight at her head.

"Don't move! Make one more move, and I'll kill her!" Ding Shenyi declared coldly, his eyes brimming with smug satisfaction.

Lee Pu was seething with anger, his face ablaze with fury. He had been caught off guard, allowing this vile man to take advantage of the situation and hold the Young Madam at gunpoint.

He had to prioritize the Young Madam's safety. Lee Pu dared not act rashly, instead fixing Ding Shenyi with an icy stare.

"Old Dog Ding, what are you trying to pull? Have you no shame?" Liu Jun exploded in anger. "You claim to be a martial arts expert, yet here you are, threatening an unarmed woman with a gun. You're repulsive!"

"Haha, when you're aiming for success, the details don't matter," Ding Shenyi sneered, his face a picture of triumph.

"As long as I can win, that's all that matters. I admit I'm despicable. What are you going to do about it?" Ding Shenyi said shamelessly. "If you're brave enough, come and get her. I'll kill this woman!"

"You!" Zhang Qimo trembled with rage, having never encountered such a treacherous and vile person. Was this the man who claimed to be the founder of a sect in his sixties?

Lee Pu, Liu Jun, and the others all wore expressions of bitter resignation, feeling a mix of shame and anger.

The shamelessness of Ding Shenyi was beyond anyone's wildest imagination. Just moments ago, he had been groveling on the ground, begging Mrs. Lin for mercy. Yet the instant he was released, he turned on her, taking her hostage!

They were powerless to act; with Mrs. Lin in his grasp, they dared not make a move.

If Master Lin found out that Mrs. Lin had been taken hostage, how would they ever explain themselves?

"What's the matter? You don't dare to make a move?" Ding Shenyi taunted with a self-satisfied air.

The name "Zong Shenyi" was built on countless underhanded and disgraceful tactics. He had no intention of changing his ways now.

He had also guessed that Zhang Qimo held a very special place in the hearts of the old man and the Liujun brothers. She was their Achilles' heel.

So, as long as he had Zhang Qimo as his hostage, no matter how skilled they were, they would have no choice but to capitulate.

"Everyone, back off! If anyone dares to come closer, I'll kill her!" Ding Shenyi sneered as he pushed Zhang Qimo into the backseat of the car. He then took a seat himself, keeping his gun pointed at Qimo at all times.

Lee Pu and Liu Jun clenched their fists tightly, not daring to take any risks that might harm Mrs. Lin.

"Old dog Ding, if you so much as lay a finger on Mrs. Lin, I swear your entire family will pay with their lives!" Lee Pu spat out angrily.

"Heh, is that all you've got? Threats?" Ding Shenyi taunted with a smug look on his face. "Have you forgotten who I am? You still want to oppose me? I have plenty more dirty tricks up my sleeve!"

Despicable doesn't even begin to describe him.

Lee Pu was so furious he was at a loss for words.

"Drive to the Wang Family," Ding Shenyi commanded the driver, then turned to glare at Qimo. "Don't even think about escaping. If you try, I'll kill you! You're going to the Wang Family as my guest, got it?"

The driver took control and sped onto the highway.

"Get in the car, follow them! And quickly notify Third Master Shen! Have him bring people to encircle the Wang Family!" Liu Jun ordered, leaping into his vehicle and tearing after Old Man Ding's Audi.

"Old dog Ding, if you dare harm a single hair on Mrs. Lin's head, you'll have no place to be buried!" Liu Jun threatened fiercely.

Ding Shenyi let out a cold laugh, glancing at the Land Rover tailing him and dismissing it with contempt.

Once he had her at the Wang Family, what could Liu Jun or even Third Master Shen do? Did they really think they could storm the Wang Family's stronghold? Ridiculous!

Sweating profusely, Lee Pu sat in his car and hurriedly called Lin Yin.

The phone rang.

Lin Yin had just landed at Qingyun City International Airport when he picked up Lee Pu's call.

"Young Master, we have a serious problem!" Lee Pu blurted out in a panic as soon as the call connected.

"What's going on?" Lin Yin inquired, his brow furrowing slightly.

"The Wang Family has brought in someone, Old Man Ding, and he's taken Young Madam to their place. He's holding her hostage, and we didn't dare to intervene. Right now, we're tailing his car," Lee Pu explained, his voice laced with fear, uncertain of the wrath that might be unleashed by the young master.

A chilling glint appeared in Lin Yin's eyes. "Give me the full story. I'm heading to the Wang Family immediately."

Lin Yin was furious. He had failed to apprehend Wen Tianfeng in Imperial City. And now, shortly after his return, he learns that the Wang Family had the audacity to lay hands on Qimo?

Did the Wang Family have a death wish?

Lee Pu's voice shook as he detected the towering rage in the young master's tone.

He recounted the events meticulously, not missing a single detail.

Click.

Lin Yin ended the call, now fully apprised of the situation. He stepped into his car and sped off towards the Wang Family's residence.
