"Boss Fei, Ye Feng isn't affiliated with those people, I was there when he saved Miss Zhang; if not for him, I would be dead, and Miss Zhang would have surely been kidnapped by them!"

At this moment, hearing Fei Zhong continuously doubt Ye Feng, Zhang Zhan, one of the bodyguards, couldn't help but speak up.

His gaze towards Fei Zhong was filled with fear, and even as he spoke, there was a trembling in his voice.

But in his heart, he was even more grateful to Ye Feng. If not for Ye Feng, he would have long been a corpse, unable to stand here!

Hmm?

Zhang Zhan spoke out in defense of Ye Feng, a move that caused the other bodyguards to twitch, and it furrowed Fei Zhong's brows into a tight knot:

"Zhang Zhan, since when is it your turn to speak here? Is this how I usually teach you?"

Fei Zhong himself was once a Mercenary King, having killed no less than a thousand men, or at the very least several hundred. His presence unconsciously emitted an Evil Qi, instilling fear in others.

Especially for Zhang Zhan and the other bodyguards who had been disciplined by Fei Zhong countless times, they harbored an inherent fear of him.

Now, faced with Fei Zhong's unfriendly expression, Zhang Zhan shivered all over, his face somewhat pale, but he still mustered the courage to say:

"Boss Fei, I, Zhang Zhan, am just a lowly bodyguard with no right to speak! But it's true that last night, Ye Feng saved Miss Zhang and me! If not for him, I, Zhang Zhan, would have long been dead on the streets! I believe he is definitely not sent by those from the collateral families!"

Zhang Zhan had witnessed Ye Feng's abilities last night, especially how he faced a hail of bullets with the ease of a leisurely stroll and burst a head with a single punch. Such terrifying capabilities he had neither seen nor heard of before.

How could he believe that such a demonic figure was merely a pawn manipulated by others? Zhang Zhan wouldn't believe it even if it cost him his life!

Zhang Zhan didn't believe it, but that didn't mean Fei Zhong didn't!

At this moment, hearing Zhang Zhan still daring to contradict him, Fei Zhong immediately became enraged. With a strike as fast as lightning, he punched Zhang Zhan hard in the chest.

Crack!

A crisp sound followed by Zhang Zhan's body flying like a kite with its string cut, thrown back five or six meters before crashing to the ground.

Thump!

As soon as Zhang Zhan hit the ground, he spat out mouthfuls of fresh blood. At least three or four of his ribs were broken, leaving his face ashen white as paper.

"Hmph! Trash!"

Fei Zhong, looking at the pitiful state Zhang Zhan was in, felt not an ounce of pity, his eyes filled with cold indifference and disdain:

"I have always taught you, as bodyguards of the Zhang Family, to act in the best interest of the Zhang Family! Right or wrong, anyone who threatens the safety of the Zhang Family must be eradicated in the bud! And now, you even stand against the Zhang Family just because someone saved you!"

"You no longer deserve to be a bodyguard for the Zhang Family. You are fired!" Fei Zhong's gaze fixed on Zhang Zhan as he said harshly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhan's complexion turned even paler, his expression one of unwillingness, but without a trace of regret.

At that moment, Ye Feng's expression turned cold. Zhang Zhan had been severely injured and expelled from his duty as a bodyguard for speaking on his behalf; he couldn't just stand by and watch.

Just as Ye Feng was about to speak, Zhang Zihan suddenly stepped in front of him, berating Fei Zhong with a delicate voice:

"Enough! Uncle Zhong, I respect you as my elder, but this time, you've gone too far! I'm going to call my father, I don't need your protection anymore!"

Right then, Zhang Zihan was truly angered. Usually gentle, quiet, and reserved, but now, involving Ye Feng, she was provoked to the extreme!

Seeing Zhang Zihan furious, Fei Zhong was taken aback, his face becoming extremely unsightly. It was the first time in three years that Zhang Zihan had spoken to him that way.

"Miss, you don't have to call anymore! I've already spoken to your father just now, and his instructions were that during your stay in Mingzhu, you are not to contact anyone, including Ye Feng!"

What!

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zihan's pretty face instantly paled, and she quickly pulled out her phone to call her father, only to discover that his phone was switched off.

"Your father is busy right now. You will only be able to contact him tomorrow morning!" Fei Zhong said immediately.

Zhang Zihan's pretty face became even more sullen as she heard these words, knowing her father was avoiding her—it was clear that what Fei Zhong had said was true!

"How could father..."

Zhang Zihan still found it hard to believe, her father had always been full of praise for Ye Feng, especially since she had been infatuated with Ye Feng for three years, and he had never opposed or stopped her.

And now, having been reunited with Ye Feng, how could he stop her, even forbidding her from meeting Ye Feng!

"Miss, you must understand the current situation of the Zhang Family! Your father is doing this for your and the entire Zhang Family's sake!" Fei Zhong said somewhat helplessly, then waved at the bodyguards:

"Put the guns down, we're taking the miss back!"

"Yes!"

The bodyguards didn't dare to delay and immediately put away their guns.

However, Zhang Zihan turned to look at Ye Feng, her beautiful eyes filled with reluctance.

Ye Feng was equally loath to part with Zhang Zihan, but he knew that if he insisted on being with her, things would definitely get worse:

"Don't worry, I'll come to find you!"

"Mhm!"

Zhang Zihan nodded her head, gave Ye Feng a kiss on the cheek, then turned to leave.

Just then, it seemed Ye Feng remembered something, he took out his cellphone, dialed a number, and his gaze fixed intently on the bodyguards, cold and unyielding.

As he dialed the number, the sound of a vibrating phone suddenly rang out, causing the face of one of the younger bodyguards to change.

"Wait!"

Ye Feng immediately stopped Fei Zhong and the others, then pointed to the bodyguard from whom the vibrating sound had come:

"You can go, but he must stay!"

Hmm?

This scene made Fei Zhong and the others stunned, their expressions instantly as dark as water.

The man Ye Feng pointed at was the kindest among the bodyguards and had strong relationships with all of them; even Fei Zhong had considered taking him as a godson.

Now that Ye Feng had singled him out to stay, how could the bodyguards agree to this.

"Ye Feng! I am letting you off because of the deep affection our miss has for you! Don't make trouble for yourself!"

At this moment, Fei Zhong's gaze gradually became hostile; his left leg slightly bent, right leg extended, his whole body like a leopard ready to pounce at any moment, filled with murderous aura.

But Ye Feng's eyes turned cold as he said, "He cannot leave!"

"Impertinent!"

Fei Zhong was furious, and as soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, he exploded into action, akin to a fierce beast, lunging forward.

Fei Zhong's entire body took flight between steps, spinning like a top, aiming a kick at Ye Feng.

Fei Zhong's offensive was extremely vicious—if it were a steel plate in front of him, it would probably be kicked through.

If it landed on a person's body, even if it didn't kill, it would break several ribs!

Watching the ferocious flying kick coming his way, a cold smirk surfaced on Ye Feng's lips:

"Since you like hurting people so much, then let's give you a taste of being hurt!"

After Ye Feng spoke, his entire figure flickered erratically, dodged Fei Zhong's kick in an instant, and sent out a sweeping kick, slamming hard into Fei Zhong's chest.
