My beautiful CEO wife-Chapter 26: That Would Scare Me

"Then scare me all you want," Xiao Zheng said with a smile as he watched He Qiang and the others, chuckling, "It’s just the right opportunity to broaden my horizons with Captain He."

Upon hearing this, He Qiang scoffed twice and said to Xiao Zheng with a sneer, "When something unexpected happens, let’s hope Supervisor Xiao doesn’t get too scared."

"Alright. Since everyone’s ready, let’s get going."

Mo Anna timely intervened to prevent the tension from escalating between them.

She knew He Qiang looked down on the literary type like Xiao Zheng.

There was no helping it, since He Qiang was an ex-military man and the head of the security department. In terms of combat, Mo Anna didn’t think Xiao Zheng could beat He Qiang.

Quickly, Mo Anna gathered some documents, and as she was leaving the office, He Qiang intentionally slowed his pace to draw close to Xiao Zheng. With a playful smirk, he said, "Supervisor Xiao, right? You might not know what kind of place the Huaren Factory is, but I feel it’s necessary to remind you—whatever happens later, don’t let it scare you into jelly legs.

Don’t worry, even if you do get jelly legs, no one will be there to help you."

After finishing his statement, the arrogant He Qiang strutted off with his head held high and chest puffed out.

Acting as if he owned the place.

"Idiot!" Xiao Zheng muttered disdainfully.

He didn’t pay him any mind.

Shortly after, the group got into a white van, and in less than an hour, they arrived at the Huaren Factory as mentioned by Mo Anna.

The Huaren Factory had been pieced together by some underground forces in Zhonghai City in recent years, an enterprise from the jianghu. It had done quite well in the past couple of years, but with the retirement of a jianghu boss and the assassination of another underworld lord, the factory had become a no-man’s-land.

With no one in charge, it had fallen into disrepair, becoming a third-rate factory.

Entering the factory, you wouldn’t even find a gatekeeper or security guard.

Before your eyes, the nearly three hundred square meter workshop was piled with rubbish, a foul rotting stench and the barking of stray dogs creating utter chaos.

"Damn it, ’Huaren Factory’ sure sounds nice, but this factory is just... a total waste of a good name," a guard wearing a slanted cap muttered angrily next to He Qiang.

Under Mo Anna’s lead, they walked into the factory only to realize that the exterior was just the tip of the iceberg, and the interior was even more chaotic.

Groups of workers were either sleeping or playing cards, with the whole factory shrouded in a haze of foulness, like a chaotic burial ground.

"Hey, who are you looking for?"

At that moment, as Mo Anna and the others entered the factory, a bare-chested young man bellowed and came over to them.

The group frowned.

The youth had dark skin, a dragon tattoo across his chest, a cigarette dangling from his lips, looking nothing like a worker.

"Hello, I’m Mo Anna, the director of sales at Qianqiu Group. May I ask if your boss, Du Haishan, is here?" Mo Anna inquired.

The youth took a drag of his cigarette, showing a mouthful of yellow teeth as he asked, "What do you want with Mr. Du?"

"We’re here to collect a debt!"

He Qiang stepped forward and said loudly.

The youth was taken aback, his eyebrows raised in irritation as he waved them off saying, "Mr. Du’s not here, beat it if you’ve got no business, or you’ll be looking for trouble!"

Those words made He Qiang angry.

This guy didn’t give him any face in front of Mo Anna, which immediately irritated He Qiang.

"If Mr. Du doesn’t come out today, I’ll turn this factory upside down!"

"Hey, you think I’m scared? Bullying has gone too far, huh?" Fuming with rage, the young man gave a big wave of his hand and called out loudly to his surroundings, "Brothers, come on over, we’ve got troublemakers here."

Accompanying the young man’s shout, the workers resting at the factory stirred all at once and came over from every corner of the facility.

Just a moment ago there hardly seemed to be a few people.

Now suddenly more than a dozen had appeared!

He Qiang, who had been acting tough just now, suddenly felt like he had a fishbone stuck in his throat, and lowered his voice to say, "We’re here to settle accounts with your boss, it’s none of your business. Just tell me where your boss is, and that’s all."

At that moment, from the midst of the crowd, a man with a shaved head wearing a black tank top emerged, a cigarette dangling from his lips, a metal rod in hand, and looked at He Qiang and the others with a cold laugh, "With just this ragtag bunch of you all trying to collect debts? Didn’t you ask around? There have been a few debt collectors this month who ended up with broken legs."

This person was Zhang Hao, the top enforcer of Huaren Factory.

"Who are you? I just want to find your boss, I don’t want any trouble," Mo Anna said coldly, without a trace of fear in her eyes.

The bald man rubbed his head, his shrewd eyes scanning up and down Mo Anna’s delicate frame, and chuckled, "Wow, this chick’s got a nice body. Forget about finding our boss, how about having a couple of drinks with me tonight?"

"You!" Mo Anna’s face changed dramatically.

"Heh, my name is Zhang Hao, Mr. Du’s top golden glove for beating people up. Don’t have money, but if you’re looking for trouble, I’ve got a life to give. If you have what it takes, get past me first today!"

Zhang Hao’s brutish aggression immediately caused an obstruction for Mo Anna and the others.

The previously arrogant He Qiang, Captain He, was also dumbstruck by now. Facing their dozen or so men, they had at most four or five. How could they even fight?

Moreover, the workers of Huaren Factory had long since fled.

These so-called ’workers’ were in fact just the factory’s thugs.

"What do we do? Brother He, we should just leave," one of the security guards started to panic. Despite their rough appearance, they could intimidate but were cowards when it came to real fighting, each faster than the next in running away.

Not to mention, would anyone with a tiny brain work a security job for three or four thousand bucks and risk their life against street thugs? Absolutely not.

"Cowards!" yelled He Qiang furiously. "If you’re scared, get lost!"

"Qianqiu Group. I think you should have heard of it. Offending Qianqiu Group won’t do you any favors. Think carefully about the consequences!"

Though somewhat nervous, Mo Anna had seen her share of the world and managed to suppress her emotions, feigning composure as she spoke, "As soon as you lay a hand on us, I can assure you, you’re looking at a minimum of two years to start with!"

"Two years to start with? Who the hell are you trying to scare? Do you take me for an illiterate?"

Zhang Hao sneered, still puffing on his cigarette as he looked at Mo Anna, "Sweetheart, it’s not just you. Even if Leng Ruobing, the beautiful CEO of Qianqiu Group, were to come here today, there’s no money to be had, but a life is available. Whoever dares to take it, just come and try me."

"Don’t you freaking push people too far!"

He Qiang roared out loud.

Wielding the iron rod in his hand, Zhang Hao pointed it at He Qiang and cursed, "Who the hell do you think you are? Do you have a place to talk here? Brothers, grab your weapons, beat them to a pulp, leave the women, but beat the men to a cripple!" ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Clatter...

A dozen men picked up their weapons and surrounded them, terrifying He Qiang and the others into a change of complexion.

The four security guards behind them were shaking so badly they could barely stand. Those who had never experienced such a situation would never understand how fast their hearts were beating.

"Stop!"

Just then, a resounding voice echoed from inside the factory.
