Chapter 285: [285] You mustn't act impulsively, it could kill someone_1

“Pew pew pew, I’ll shoot you dead, I’ll shoot you dead…”

Liu Ping’s house’s front door was wide open.

In the courtyard, a crazy old lady was holding a pistol, thoroughly enjoying herself.

At a round table in the yard, a man wearing dark sunglasses sat peeling an orange, grinning as he watched the old lady’s performance.

Liu Ping suddenly turned pale with fright, dashed over, and snatched the gun from the old lady’s hand.

Then he furiously turned to the man, “How could you let my mom play with a gun? This is way too dangerous.”

The man popped a wedge of orange into his mouth, shrugged off the admonishment with a laugh, “I think you’re the more dangerous one here.”

“The task you were given, you’ve completely botched it. What do you think I should do to punish you?”

Liu Ping’s complexion kept changing as he turned to instruct his wife, “Help mom inside to rest first.”

The pregnant woman hurriedly pulled the crazed old lady towards the main house, “Mom, let’s go inside.”

“I won’t go inside, I want to play with the gun, you won’t let me play with the gun, you’re all bad people…”

The old lady resisted, scratching and grabbing at her daughter-in-law, but she was eventually pulled into the house.

Only then did Liu Ping turn back to the man with a grim look, “I’ve done as you directed, swapping the snuff bottle for a fake one. That’s all I can do.”

“Moreover, I’m now fired, what else do you want from me?”

“Heh, really? As far as I know, that lad just asked you a few questions and you blew your cover.”

“I think you deliberately sabotaged our plan. Believe it or not, I could take out your mother and your wife right now?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The man stood up menacingly, ready to step inside.

“Don’t you move!” Liu Ping suddenly aimed the gun at the man, his eyes bloodshot.

“Oh, you dare point a gun at me? You’ve finally shown some spine. Come on then, shoot right here.” The man didn’t show an ounce of fear; instead, he leaned his head forward, gesturing for Liu Ping to fire.

Liu Ping’s whole body started trembling, “You… don’t push me. If you push me too far, I might do anything.”

The man’s face twisted into a ferocious smile, “I’m just really pushing you, so what?”

“If you don’t shoot, I will go straight in to kill your mother, rape your wife before killing her, and your unborn child…”

“Ahh…”

Liu Ping could no longer bear it and let out a roar as he pulled the trigger.

“Click!”

The pistol just clicked, obviously unloaded.

He was instantly dumbstruck.

“Hahaha…”

The man laughed heartily as he snatched the pistol away and ejected the magazine.

Then he pulled several bullets from his pocket and loaded them one by one.

“This is how you play with a gun.”

He reattached the magazine and flaunted a few fancy moves in his hand.

In his grip, the pistol seemed like a well-trained pet, obedient to his every whim.

Afterwards, he lifted the gun to Liu Ping’s head, “Kneel.”

Liu Ping shivered and immediately fell to his knees.

“You messed up the boss’s mission, and I can’t just go back and explain it to the boss. I’ll have to use your little life as a scapegoat,” the man said with his menacing smile, his index finger slowly moving toward the trigger.

“Let go of my husband.”

Suddenly, Liu Ping’s wife charged out from the room, grabbed the man’s arm, and bit down hard.

“You filthy bitch, looking to die?” The man flung her off with force, then raised the gun to her head and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

“Bang!”

A gunshot rang out.

Liu Ping, who had been about to protect his wife, was so startled that he crouched down with his head in his hands.

Then his mind went blank.

His mother and wife were the dearest people to him in this world.

Moreover, his wife was pregnant with a child.

This was a matter of two lives at risk!

A deep sense of despair welled up from the bottom of his heart.

When he reluctantly lifted his head to look,

he was suddenly stunned on the spot.

His wife had not died, although the gunshot had turned her face white with fright, she still stood there, safe and sound.

Yet, another person had appeared on the scene.

“Mr. Tang?” he called out in disbelief.

The person who had suddenly appeared was Tang Feng.

At the critical moment, it was Tang Feng who had swiftly acted, raising the man’s hand by a few inches, thereby sparing Liu Ping’s wife from catastrophe.

“Damn, you’re asking for it!”

The man was furious and was about to aim the gun at Tang Feng.

However, before he could make a move, the handgun slipped from his grasp.

The next second, the gun was in Tang Feng’s hands.

“Who… who the hell are you?” the man panicked and involuntarily took two steps back.

“Don’t recognize me, huh? Didn’t you guys go through such a big loop just to set me up?”

“You don’t even recognize me?” Tang Feng looked down at the small handgun, it was his first time handling such a thing.

“You’re Tang Feng?” the man was suddenly shocked and made a break for it.

“Don’t move.” Tang Feng pressed the handgun against the man’s head.

The man quickly raised his hands, squeezing out a sycophantic smile, “Mr. Tang, this is a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding.”

“Please don’t do anything rash—people could die.”

“Kneel down.” Tang Feng didn’t bother with further talk.

The man dropped to his knees without hesitation, landing on the ground with a “thud.”

At this moment, Qin Yanan also entered the courtyard.

When she saw Tang Feng pointing a gun at someone, she was shock.

Were things really getting this wild now?

“Tang Feng, don’t be rash, that thing is too dangerous,” she said, afraid that Tang Feng might do something impulsive and regret it immensely.

Tang Feng gave a smile, retracted the handgun, removed the magazine, and threw it onto the nearby table.

A collective sigh of relief escaped from those present.

“Mr. Tang, I really can’t thank you enough,” Liu Ping said as he came over to express his gratitude to Tang Feng.

If it weren’t for Tang Feng’s timely intervention, his wife might have become a corpse.

“Was it he who instructed you to set me up?” Tang Feng pointed at the man kneeling on the ground and asked Liu Ping.

Liu Ping immediately nodded with a shamefaced expression, “I had no choice. He threatened me with my mother and wife, so I could only do what he said. I’m sorry, Mr. Tang.”

Tang Feng did not pay him any more attention and turned to look at the man.

“Who sent you?”
