Chapter 272: Leaving a Name While Doing Evil Deeds
As soon as Lei Hui entered, he saw two bodyguards lying unconscious on the ground.
He paused in surprise, “Boss, what is this…?”
“No issue. I just went out to handle some business. Having them around was inconvenient. They insisted on following me no matter what, so I had no choice but to tie them up in this office.”
Lin Xuan took the rope from Lei Hui’s hands and began binding the bodyguards thoroughly.
He also took their walkie-talkies and phones, tossing them aside.
“Wait for my call before you let them out.”
“Yes, boss.” Lei Hui agreed.
The company had been founded for less than a year, and Lei Hui often worked overtime, keeping many clothes at the office. Lin Xuan directly changed into one of Lei Hui’s outfits.
He also messed up his hair a bit.
This was to evade the bodyguards Su Hua had sent to protect him in secret.
After leaving the company, Lin Xuan glanced at the black car parked nearby, raising an eyebrow.
Sure enough, they were still waiting for him.
Lin Xuan walked over to a car—it was Lei Hui’s—and opened the door to sit inside.
He even removed his mask, deliberately exposing his face to the two people who were tracking him.
“Bro, it’s Lin Xuan!” Cheng Er pointed in Lin Xuan’s direction. “Quick, follow him!”
They had been tracking Lin Xuan for several days and finally managed to find him—they couldn’t afford to lose him now.
Cheng Da stepped on the gas pedal.
And started closely tailing Lin Xuan’s car.
“Bro,” Cheng Er asked hesitantly, “why did he change cars and his outfit? Could it be that he noticed us?”
“It’s impossible,” Cheng Da said firmly. “We’ve all received professional training. How could someone like him, an ordinary person, possibly detect that we’re tracking him?”
“You’re right,” Cheng Er nodded.
“Bro, this is our first mission. We can’t fail,” Cheng Er added.
The organization Lin Li hired through the dark web had just received a big order, and they couldn’t spare any experienced members.
So, they sent two new recruits to capture Lin Xuan.
In their eyes, Lin Xuan was just an ordinary college student, so sending these two inexperienced individuals would be sufficient.
“Don’t worry,” Cheng Da smiled confidently. “Just look at him—a scrawny little thing with no strength whatsoever. Capturing him will be a piece of cake.”
Cheng Da was brimming with confidence.
Both Cheng Er and Cheng Da had explosive muscles, eight-pack abs, and could lift weights up to 180 kilograms. In their eyes, Lin Xuan was nothing more than a chicken-like figure.
Such a weakling obviously wouldn’t pose much of a threat.
Cheng Er felt completely reassured.
Lin Xuan intentionally drove to a secluded place.
Then he got out of the car.
He was giving them the opportunity to act.
Cheng Er frowned, “Why did he park here? Is there some kind of trap involved? It seems like he’s intentionally luring us over.”
“Just him alone, what kind of trap could he possibly set?” Cheng Da dismissed it casually. “Alright, stop being so jumpy and let’s move. If we miss this good chance, who knows when the next one will come.”
Lin Xuan walked toward a pitch-black house and pretended to take out a key from his pocket.
At that moment,
Cheng Da and Cheng Er appeared.
“Who are you?” Lin Xuan feigned surprise.
“People here to capture you, Lin Xuan. Just come with us,” Cheng Er said.
“Oh yeah,” Cheng Er continued, “we’re from the Black Tiger Gang.”
It was their gang’s rule that during every operation, they must let the other party know they’re from the Black Tiger Gang.
That’s called leaving a name while doing evil deeds.
“Black Tiger Gang?” Lin Xuan furrowed his brows. He had heard this name before—it was the day he died in his previous life, when Qin Ruoyao and Lin Li were together in bed. That’s when he overheard them.
Lin Li had mentioned hiring people from the Black Tiger Gang to capture him.
Qin Ruoyao had worried about the reliability of this organization.
Lin Li claimed it was a famous underground group that could do anything for money.
Lin Xuan became intrigued.
Interesting.
He wanted to meet these people.
“You’ve heard of the Black Tiger Gang, right? But don’t worry,” Cheng Er smirked, holding a blade of grass in his mouth. “You’ll soon see how powerful our gang is.”
Lin Xuan slipped into his acting mode.
His eyes were filled with fear. “Are you going to take me back to your gang?”
“That’s right,” Cheng Er nodded. “The bounty for your capture is high, and our boss wants to deal with you personally.”
“Enough, villains always die because they talk too much,” Cheng Da frowned. “Don’t waste time with him. Just tie him up already.”
Lin Xuan immediately extended his hands, resigning himself. “Fine, go ahead and tie me up.”
Cheng Er froze, suspiciously eyeing Lin Xuan. “What’s wrong with you? This is the first time I’ve seen someone willingly ask to be tied up. Aren’t you going to try to escape?”
Not escaping would make them seem utterly ineffective.
Lin Xuan replied with a world-weary tone, “With your physique, it’s clear you practice martial arts regularly. How could I possibly resist you?”
“I might as well just let you take me. At least this way, I’ll suffer less.”
Cheng Er nodded approvingly. “You’re quite sensible, kid. Don’t worry, we won’t make things difficult for you. Of course, what our boss decides to do with you is beyond our control.”
They put a sack over Lin Xuan and brought him to a village fifty kilometers away.
Inside stood a villa that looked ordinary on the outside but was extravagantly luxurious inside.
“Get inside!”
Cheng Da and Cheng Er escorted Lin Xuan into the villa.
Wang Ba was sitting in the living room on a wooden chair carved with dragons.
“Boss,” Cheng Da and Cheng Er respectfully greeted, “we’ve captured Lin Xuan. This is the order worth eight million yuan—to take his life and make him endure five days of unbearable pain.”
Wang Ba sat up straight.
There was indeed such an order, and since it involved severing the target’s vital part, it left a deep impression on him.
“Take off his sack,” Wang Ba ordered.
“Yes.”
Cheng Da removed the sack covering Lin Xuan.

Ah! I just made instant noodles, but accidentally dumped all the seasoning into the noodles before adding water. I was bummed for a while, and ended up eating it only with salt and soy sauce. Four-yuan Sha County-style noodles turned into one-yuan soy sauce noodles. Terrible (big cry).
Thanks to Yan Shi 123 for the five inspiration capsules.
Phew, recently there have been too few rewards. After three days, I finally had a chance to thank for the gifts at the end of the chapter~’
I can’t hold on anymore, time to sleep.
