Chapter 73 -73 Subjugation

He hung up the phone and Long Chen hurried to the exterior of Zhao Churan’s company, waiting for her to get off work.

Zhao Churan walked out of the main gate, unaware that Long Chen had come to pick her up. Burdened with heavy thoughts, she was about to leave when two men suddenly rushed forward, saying nothing and trying to abduct her.

Such a brazen attack frightened Zhao Churan, prompting her to try and run back.

But she couldn’t escape from the two strong men and was captured.

Long Chen’s expression darkened, and he immediately got out of his car and rushed over.

“Let her go.”

Long Chen shouted loudly.

The two men turned their heads, saw Long Chen charging at them, and remained composed.

One of them continued to hold onto Zhao Churan while the other one took out a dagger, staring coldly at Long Chen with a hoarse voice: “Kid, if you don’t want to die, don’t meddle.”

“Get lost.”

Long Chen acted immediately.

“Seeking death.”

The man with the dagger attacked Long Chen.

This wasn’t just some common thug; as soon as he made his move, Long Chen noticed his moves were skilled, his attacks merciless, aiming straight for his vulnerabilities.

Long Chen fought him, but for a moment, he could not defeat him.

Hiss.

The man holding the dagger slashed Long Chen’s arm, causing blood to flow immediately.

Long Chen’s eyes turned frosty, feeling somewhat stifled.

He could feel that his strength was much greater than this man’s, but with only a few moves at his disposal, he was at a disadvantage.

Even so, the man attacking Long Chen was also not having an easy time; an accidental punch made him feel as if his bones were about to fall apart.

This realization alarmed the man with the dagger, who quickly retreated to the side of the other man, whispering, “Although his moves are ordinary, his inner strength is unfathomable. Big brother, we should leave now, this isn’t money we can earn.”

“Okay.”

The man holding Zhao Churan immediately released her.

The two of them quickly left, disappearing among the crowd of people getting off work.

Zhao Churan, still in shock, threw herself into Long Chen’s arms, feeling an unprecedented fear.

Long Chen comforted Zhao Churan, secretly relieved that he had come to pick her up personally.

Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

“It must have been Xu Tao again, sending people to capture me. He won’t let things go easily, what should we do?”

Zhao Churan was very nervous.

“I…”

“Don’t be nervous, you two.” An elderly man with white hair suddenly approached them.

Long Chen turned and saw it was Ye Zhen, who had sought him out the night before.

“Mr. Ye, what are you doing here?”

Long Chen was surprised.

“Mr. Long, as I mentioned yesterday, we have been watching you for a long time, so naturally, we also know everything about you. That Xu Family lad, intending to harm someone close to you, I would definitely intervene if you hadn’t acted just now,” Ye Zhen said with a smile.

“But this does not solve the problem.”

Long Chen said sternly.

This matter had to be resolved before Long Chen could leave with peace of mind.

“Mr. Long, you can rest assured, if the Xu Family has only this one move, with Dragon Palace intervening, the Xu Family won’t dare to do anything to your girlfriend anymore; you needn’t worry about this,” Ye Zhen said.

“In that case, if you resolve this threat, I shall join Dragon Palace,” Long Chen said seriously.

“Really?”

Ye Zhen was overjoyed.

“Truly.”

“Haha, good! Mr. Long, this matter will be resolved before nightfall. This is my phone number. I’d appreciate a call later tonight, Mr. Long. I’ll take my leave now.”

Ye Zhen clasped his fist in a salute, then immediately turned and left.

Long Chen watched Ye Zhen’s retreating figure, somewhat incredulous.

“Long Chen, what’s the background of this elderly man? Is he serious?”

Zhao Churan was slightly astonished.

“He should be able to resolve it, let’s go home and wait for good news,” Long Chen said with a smile.

“Alright.”

Zhao Churan stuck close to Long Chen.

Half an hour later, the two men who had tried to capture Zhao Churan found Xu Tao in a small building on the outskirts of the city.

Seeing the two men return empty-handed, Xu Tao looked slightly stunned, “Where’s the person you were supposed to capture?”

“Mr. Xu, we’re truly sorry, we two brothers couldn’t complete this deal. We’ll return the deposit you paid in full,” one of the men said solemnly.

“Why?” Xu Tao didn’t understand.

“Because the girl’s boyfriend is as strong as us, and moreover, his background must also be terrifying. We brothers don’t want to offend such a powerful person for a little money. It’s not worth it,” the man said seriously.

“I can give you more money, really, just name your price,” Xu Tao said, clenching his fists.

“It’s not just about the money anymore, Mr. Xu, you better find someone more capable,” he replied tersely.

In a moment, the two men returned the entire deposit to Xu Tao and then decisively left.

Xu Tao was furiously stomping around, about to call for more capable people when his phone rang.

Seeing it was a call from his father, Xu Tao steadied himself and answered, “Dad.”

“You beast, where are you?”

A roar came through the phone.

Xu Tao jumped, “Dad, what… what’s wrong?”

“What’s wrong? Did you hire someone to kidnap a girl named Zhao Churan?”

“Uh, Dad, how did you know?” Xu Tao was startled.

“How did I know? Ha, your uncle personally called me, told me to immediately control you, stop your crazy actions, or he would take you down himself. How do you think I know? Xu Tao, you have offended someone we should not have, even your uncle is wary of him,” Xu Tao’s father shouted, both shocked and angry.

Xu Tao’s face turned pale with fright, remembering that although Zhao Churan’s family had some money, it shouldn’t be so strong as to make his uncle wary.

It seemed, the truly formidable one was Long Chen. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Xu Tao also remembered how Long Chen had threatened to kill him, breaking out in a cold sweat.

At that time, Long Chen might not have been threatening him, but actually wanting to kill him.

“Xu Tao, you have ten minutes to get back here. I’ll take you to apologize in person. If this is not handled well, your uncle will be affected too. Do you understand?”

“Dad, I’ll come back immediately, right away.”

Xu Tao was thoroughly frightened.

This night was destined to be restless.

At nine o’clock, a middle-aged man, bringing Xu Tao, personally came to Zhao Churan’s house.

After entering the house, the middle-aged man sternly ordered Xu Tao to kneel.

Although Xu Tao felt aggrieved, he dared not challenge him at this moment and obediently knelt on the ground, “Churan, I’m sorry. Please forgive me.”

“Uh?”

Zhao Churan was extremely shocked. What was happening?

Long Chen was also stunned for a moment, then quickly realized that it must be Ye Zhen exerting tremendous pressure on the Xu Family through Dragon Palace.

The deterrent power of the Dragon Palace was indeed formidable, easily managing even the Xu Family.

“Beast, if Miss Zhao does not forgive you, you will keep kneeling for me tonight,” the middle-aged man scolded.

Then, looking at Zhao Churan and Long Chen, he said solemnly, “Hello, I’m Xu Feng, Xu Tao’s father. I am very sorry for my son’s reckless actions and have come here specifically to apologize. I hope you can be magnanimous and give us father and son a chance.”
