Although those subordinates were seriously injured.
They finally managed to stand up.
Under Hou Yuanhui's stern command, they ignored their wounds, staggering to their feet.
They had already experienced Lin Chen's tactics.
Trembling with fear, none dared to step forward to subdue him.
Seeing his subordinates so timid.
Hou Yuanhui had to take action himself.
He released Chen Fang, pushing him towards his subordinates.
Then.
Clenching the dagger tightly, he advanced towards Lin Chen, muttering, "Don't resist. If you resist, my men will kill Chen Fang, and by then, it's a lose-lose situation, no one will benefit..."
Just like that.
Lin Chen was also subdued by Hou Yuanhui.
The sharp dagger was pressed against Lin Chen's throat; a slight movement from Hou Yuanhui would end Lin Chen's life instantly.
This scene.
Filled Chen Fang's heart with despair.
There had been a glimmer of hope.
But now, trying to escape seemed impossible.
"Trying to fight me, you're too inexperienced, hahaha... You're one of Chen Fang's people, aren't you? You want to save him, right? Very good, then I'll let you witness Chen Fang being tortured. Come, pick up the dagger from the ground, and sever his tendons..."
Just as a subordinate was about to bend down to pick up Lin Chen's dagger.
Hou Yuanhui suddenly shouted, "You fool, wrap it in cloth, it's got this bastard's fingerprints."
Once that was said.
Everyone realized.
Hou Yuanhui not only planned to sever Chen Fang's tendons.
He also wanted to frame Lin Chen for it.
He was indeed a vicious and cunning fellow.
The subordinate wrapped the dagger's handle in a tissue.
Several other subordinates also pinned Chen Fang down.
His ankles were exposed.
The subordinate walked to Chen Fang's feet, wiped the dagger on his pants...
At this moment.
Hou Yuanhui's eyes gleamed with excitement.
He held Lin Chen, whispering in his ear, "Witnessing this, doesn't it feel helpless, hahaha... Chen Fang must be very important to you, watching his tendons being severed, doesn't it feel hopeless? Hahaha..."
"You will all die badly, you Hou Family people, will all die badly!"
Lin Chen gritted his teeth and said.
"Hahaha..."
Hou Yuanhui laughed heartily.
He asked, "You bunch of lowly ants, always playing word games. Unlike us, the Hou Family, we do as we please; no matter how many schemes you have, against absolute power, are they useful? Huh? Are they?"
With a distorted expression, he finished speaking.
Hou Yuanhui shouted to his subordinates, "Do it, do it!"
The subordinate took a deep breath.
Pointed the tip of the dagger towards Chen Fang's tendon.
At that moment, even Chen Fang felt a surge of sorrow in his heart.
No one would come.
They were resigned to their fate.
Just then, Lin Chen suddenly shouted to Chen Fang: "Take care of the young miss for me, please!"
Chen Fang's heart shuddered.
Realizing something terrible was about to happen.
He struggled to lift his head from the ground to look towards Lin Chen.
Before Hou Yuanhui could comprehend what those words meant, Lin Chen suddenly turned around, his neck was slashed open, yet he didn't care, he embraced Hou Yuanhui with both arms, sneering, "Join me in death, Young Master Hou!"
In a flash.
Hou Yuanhui's hair stood on end.
But it was too late.
Lin Chen shouted.
Suddenly exerting force with his feet.
He clutched Hou Yuanhui's body, charging towards the window.
"No..."
Hou Yuanhui screamed hoarsely, but only managed to shout two words before, with a crash, the window was broken, and the two of them tumbled together out of the sixth-floor window, followed by a muffled thud, the sound of their bodies hitting the ground...
The other subordinates in the room were momentarily dumbfounded.
In a fraction of a second, they glanced at each other, no one knew what to do next.
A subordinate rushed to the window.
Looked down briefly.
Cried out "It's over."
And hurriedly ran out of the room.
The rest were in chaos too, their protected Young Master had an accident, and naturally, they couldn't fare well either. They ignored Chen Fang and rushed downstairs to check on the "master's" safety.
Chen Fang struggled to stand from the ground.
Enduring the dual pain of body and mind, he ran to the window and looked downstairs; after they fell, they had already separated, left and right, each with a pool of blood beneath, seemingly lifeless.
In the distance.
An armed police officer blew a whistle.
People were converging from all directions.
Chen Fang knew that staying here was not safe.
He hurried out of the room.
He dared not take the elevator, as people must be guarding downstairs.
He couldn't fall into the hands of the guards, or else he might not escape for a long time ahead, and he might even be blamed for this incident.
Upon reaching the first floor.
There were no longer conditions for a safe retreat.
The entire building had been completely surrounded by armed police.
The few people Hou Yuanhui brought were also controlled.
Just as he thought everything was over.
His shoulder was suddenly tapped.
He turned around abruptly, seeing a familiar face.
The person was Xu Jinxue.
"Come with me!"
Xu Jinxue said expressionlessly.
Then turned and walked toward the back.
Two armed police soldiers had already blocked the rear door.
Xu Jinxue wrapped her arm around Chen Fang's, whispering, "Act normal, I'll handle it!"
Chen Fang nodded.
Took a deep breath, puffing out his chest.
As they came around the corner, the two armed police noticed them.
Raised their hands, preventing them from leaving.
At this time, Xu Jinxue took out something akin to identification, slipping it into one officer's hand.
The officer looked and quickly saluted, respectfully saying, "Hello Miss Xu."
Xu Jinxue nodded.
Said: "Someone jumped off the building over there, I came to take a look, you're not going to even check me, are you?"
"Of course not, Miss Xu, but this man..."
The officer pointed at Chen Fang and asked.
Xu Jinxue smiled and said: "My boyfriend, brought him to see grandpa."
"Oh, oh, oh, please, Miss Xu!"
The officer naturally dared not trouble Xu Jinxue.
Hurriedly opened the back door.
Thus, Xu Jinxue led Chen Fang to safety.
About ten meters away from Building Six, they entered a small garden.
Xu Jinxue, seeing no one around, quickly let go, asking Chen Fang with concern, "Are you...are you okay?"
At that moment, even breathing was painful for Chen Fang.
With Lin Chen's death, he couldn't bear it all at once, both mentally and physically exhausted, he finally couldn't hold on, everything went black, and he collapsed weakly onto the ground...
