How can you ascend to heaven when you are a star?

Chapter 295 Vulnerable

Zhang Wen left the manor after saying goodbye to the three old ladies.

When he thought of two more customers, the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably.

The seeds planted at Mrs. Zhou’s birthday party finally bore fruit today after a month of growth.

And, it’s delicious!

The car drove from the small road into the main road. Perhaps because it was too late, there were not many cars on the road. Zhang Wen unconsciously stepped on the accelerator deeply, hoping to get home earlier.

However, not long after driving along the main road, he saw a man on the side of the road in the distance under the light of the headlights. His familiar clothes made him recognize at a glance that this was one of the people who had surrounded him before. His name seemed to be Xia Zhengbiao.

When the other person saw a car behind him, he immediately stopped, raised his arm and extended his thumb, as if wanting to get a ride.

Zhang Wen narrowed his eyes slightly. What was going on?
Chasing and intercepting doesn't work, so try chance encounter instead?
It would be better to arrange a female actress. That's too insincere.

and many more!

Aren’t there other people lying in ambush around here?
As soon as he got out of the car, those people would immediately surround him, and then... what were they going to ask him to do this time? Could it be to help fix the car?

Zhang Wen was particularly interested in the purpose of this group of people and the mastermind behind them, so he slowed down the car and stopped next to the man.

This time, without waiting for the other party to knock on the window, he pushed the door open and got out of the car. In order to quickly see the conspiracy of this group of people, he walked around the front of the car, walked up to the man and asked, "Brother, what's the matter?"

After saying that, he looked around. There were vegetable fields on both sides of the road, and not a single person in sight.

what's the situation?
only one person?

It seems that she didn't take him seriously.

At this time, Xia Zhengbiao was also confused. He just wanted to take a ride back to the company, but he didn't expect to stop his target for tonight.

and many more!

Just now, Ma Ge called his boss. Because he didn't complete the task, he was scolded by his boss. He said some very nasty things, such as "good-for-nothing" and "idiot", and threatened to deduct their wages.

If he could find the life essence from the target car now and bring it back to the company and hand it over to his boss, not only would his salary not be deducted, he might even get a bonus.

What is this called?
This is called: There is no road ahead and the heart is lost, but flowers at the corner reflect the sunlight.

Thinking of this, he suppressed his excitement, looked at the target in front of him and said, "Can I take your car? I'll pay."

As he said this, he took out his wallet, but in order to successfully get on the bus, he directly took out two pink bills from it.

Zhang Wen glanced at the pink ticket, then looked at the person in front of him and asked, "Why are you alone? Where are your companions?"

"They followed the trailer. I was not going the same way as them, so I didn't go with them." Xia Zhengbiao began to make up a story.

The truth is, Ma Ge asked them to walk back, but who would really walk back to the company for dozens of kilometers?

So after waiting for Ma Ge to leave, everyone returned along the same route and tried to stop cars going back to the city.

Several people were playing rock-paper-scissors, and whoever won went first. As a result, he lost again and again, and his companions got on the bus one by one, and in the end he was the only one left.

Originally he thought he was extremely unlucky, having lost four times in a row, but now that he saw the goal, he felt that he was not unlucky but lucky, and that God was helping him.

"You didn't go with them in such a remote place?" Zhang Wen asked in surprise. No wonder he didn't see other people just now. It turned out they were not here.

"I thought it would be easy to call a taxi with the taxi app, but it turned out the distance was too far and no one wanted to come," Xia Zhengbiao said with a wry smile.

"Oh." Zhang Wen pretended to believe it, and at the same time, there was a hint of smile in his eyes.

Since the other party is alone now, shouldn't he make good use of this opportunity?

Since ancient times, anyone who is alone will be regarded as a lamb to be slaughtered.

Thinking of this, he smiled and nodded.

"Okay, get in the car."

"Thank you!"

Xia Zhengbiao was secretly delighted.

Just as the target turned around, he attacked.

He quickly raised his right hand and slashed at the back of the target's neck.

"Snapped!"

Xia Zhengbiao smiled and waited for his target to fall to the ground. He had practiced this move for many years and used it many times without fail.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

He looked at his target who was still standing upright, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a look of confusion.

Why didn’t it fall?
It clearly hit the opponent's carotid artery.

Zhang Wen stopped, slowly turned around, looked at the dazed thug and asked, "Were you the one who hit me just now?"

"Uh..." Xia Zhengbiao opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't know how to defend himself.

After all, there are only two of them here, who else could it be if not him?
Could it be a ghost?

"Why did you hit me?" Zhang Wen asked with a frown.

He was originally planning to attack the other party in the car, but he didn't expect the other party couldn't wait and attacked him before getting in the car.

"I……"

Xia Zhengbiao gritted his teeth and decided not to pretend anymore. He reached out and grabbed the other person's collar and said viciously, "You, hand over the life essence, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."

After saying that, he raised his other hand, clenched it into a fist, and made a threatening gesture.

However, Zhang Wen was slightly stunned after hearing what the thug said.

He originally thought that these thugs went to such great lengths, chasing him, blocking him, and knocking him unconscious, all for him, but he didn't expect it was for the essence of life.

I've heard of people robbing money and people robbing people, but I've never heard of people robbing juice.

and many more!

Since this group of people came for the Essence of Life, then the mastermind behind this incident tonight must be a boss who can't buy the Essence of Life.

Maybe it was someone at Old Lady Zhou’s birthday party who decided to take a risk because he couldn’t buy the essence of life.

Are today's rich people so crazy about their health?
"Did you hear me? Speak quickly!" Xia Zhengbiao said impatiently with a fierce look on his face.

Zhang Wen didn't get angry but laughed instead.

High-end hunters often appear in the form of prey.

The other party beat him, robbed him, and threatened him. No matter what he does now, is it self-defense?
"What are you laughing at?" Xia Zhengbiao asked with a frown.

"I like to laugh. Don't you like to laugh?" Zhang Wen asked back.

"I asked you to take out the essence of life, not to laugh here!" Xia Zhengbiao exerted force with his arms. He wanted to lift up the target and teach this man a lesson.

However, despite exerting great strength, the man was like a tree rooted in the place. Whether he was lifted with one hand or pulled with two hands, he would not budge. "Is this what you want?" Zhang Wen said as he grabbed the man's neck and lifted him up.

Xia Zhengbiao suddenly opened his eyes wide, a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. He weighed 160 to 170 kilograms, and he could lift it just like that?

And it's just one hand?

He couldn't believe it, but the feeling of suffocation that followed forced him to believe that everything was true.

"Uh……"

Xia Zhengbiao wanted to speak, but the words seemed to be stuck in his throat. Even breathing became a luxury, and his chest felt so stuffy that it seemed like it was about to explode.

His feet were flailing around uncontrollably, but he couldn't find any foothold. He felt like a person who couldn't swim and fell into the water.

Gradually, he began to see stars in front of his eyes, and fear quickly filled his consciousness like a surging tide. He forgot all the Sanda and boxing he had learned before, and his mind was blank.

Zhang Wen saw the thug in his hand start to roll his eyes, so he quickly threw him into the vegetable field beside the road.

Playing is playing, making noise is making noise, but it would be terrible if someone died.

He walked over and looked at the thug lying on the ground gasping for breath, a sneer appearing on his face.

Is this the Sanda elite?
He originally thought that the other party could resist a few times, and he was even prepared to compete with this master with 67 points in Sanda skills.

But who would have thought it would end just as it began.

Vulnerable!
"Tell me, who sent you here?" Zhang Wen asked the thug, looking down at him.

"vomit……"

Xia Zhengbiao knelt on the ground and retched a few times, then shook his head and said, "No, no one sent me here."

"Hey? You're quite tough." Zhang Wen smiled, then raised one foot and stepped on the thug's back.

Xia Zhengbiao only felt a huge force coming from his back, as if a mountain was pressing on his back. Even if he used all his strength, it was of no avail. His body fell straight to the ground, coming into close contact with the vegetable field.

"what!"

The pain from the compression of his chest made him scream out, and he felt like his bones were about to break.

"I'll give you another chance to answer my question just now." Zhang Wen's voice gradually became colder, and even the air around him seemed to drop a few degrees.

"Really not." Xia Zhengbiao said gritting his teeth.

He knew very well that if he revealed his boss's name, not only would he lose his current job, but he would also have no chance of staying in Beijing in the future.

"Good, you're a real man!" Zhang Wen praised loudly, then took out a cell phone from the other person's trouser pocket and checked the people he had contacted recently.

The last person I contacted was my wife.

Next is a guy called Brother Ma, and there’s also my father-in-law and mother-in-law… Unfortunately, there’s no title like “boss” or “manager”.

I think this thug is too low-level and can't get in touch with big shots like the boss.

In order to find some useful information, he entered the other party's WeChat again, and sure enough, there was what he wanted.

"Hengya Group Security Department? It seems that you are from Hengya Group. What's the name of your boss?" Zhang Wen asked while looking.

"I won't tell you, just forget it. But you'd better let me go quickly, otherwise my boss won't let you go. I believe you have heard of the name of Hengya Group." Xia Zhengbiao said gritting his teeth, still threatening.

Zhang Wen exerted a little force on his feet, and Xia Zhengbiao immediately grimaced in pain.

"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I can find out." Zhang Wen said slowly.

It is not difficult for him to investigate who is the legal person of a company. He can do it by simply going online to the National Enterprise Credit Information Publicity System.
It is even easier to find a large company like Hengya, you can just search it online.

"A loving family? Brother, what will happen if I strip you naked, take photos and send them to this group?" Zhang Wen asked with a smile.

This wicked thought gave Xia Zhengbiao a shudder. That group chat belonged to his wife's relatives. If his naked photos were posted there, how would he ever face returning to his mother-in-law's house? How would his wife explain this to those relatives?
"XX Primary School, Grade 2021, Class 3, is this your child's primary school class group? If I send your photo to this group, guess what will happen to your child when he goes to school tomorrow?" Zhang Wen said again.

Xia Zhengbiao's eyes turned red as he thought of his lovely son. He suddenly began to struggle violently, shouting, "Let me go, let me go, and fight me one on one if you dare."

"Aren't we always fighting one-on-one? Or you were the first to start?" Zhang Wen said lightly, then bent down and grabbed the security guard's T-shirt and exerted force. With a "rip", the T-shirt was torn into pieces, and his upper body was naked.

Although it was summer, Xia Zhengbiao still felt chilly.

"Next is the pants." Zhang Wen muttered as he grabbed the other person's pants.

"Tear!"

Pants become shorts.

"No, I'll tell you, isn't that enough for me to tell you?" Xia Zhengbiao said loudly.

He was in his thirties and was so anxious that he was about to cry. All his toughness was gone and he looked like a sissy.

You can beat or kill him as you please, and if you shout "it hurts," he's rubbish. But what about taking nude photos and posting them in the group?

So despicable and shameless!

If he were single, he would have given it to him, but he is married and has children.

He didn't want his naked photos to appear in his child's class group. How would the child go to school? People who didn't know him would think he was a hooligan.

"Why didn't you say it earlier? Why suffer so much?" Zhang Wen sneered. Even the toughest man has his weaknesses. As long as you find the weaknesses, you don't have to worry about the other party not speaking.

"I can tell you, but you must keep it a secret for me and you can't say that I said it." Xia Zhengbiao said.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I won't listen." Zhang Wen began to increase the strength of his feet.

"Our boss is Cui Heng. He ordered our security department to monitor you and find ways to get the life essence from you." Xia Zhengbiao said.

"Cui Heng..." Zhang Wen wrote down the name and then asked curiously, "Why didn't you attack me when you stopped me earlier?"

Why didn't so many people gang up on him then, but now they want to fight him one-on-one? Isn't this crazy?
"That's because I had no intention of attacking you at the time. Ma Ge's plan was to use the cart to buy time while Xu Gang searched your car to see if he could find the Life Essence. As a result, the car was pushed away, and Xu Gang was unable to enter your car, so..."

After hearing this, Zhang Wen showed an expression of sudden enlightenment. It turned out that the person who knocked on the car window and pretended to hurt his arm was the protagonist. It was a pity that the time was too short and the protagonist's role ended halfway before it officially began.

No wonder none of the people with more than 60 points in Sanda and Boxing took action. It turned out that they were planning to outsmart him.

Zhang Wen lifted his foot off the security guard's back and walked toward the car parked on the side of the road, saying, "I haven't seen you before."

Xia Zhengbiao spat out the dirt in his mouth twice, then rolled and crawled to his feet, gritting his teeth and saying, "I haven't seen you either."

Zhang Wen got into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and soon disappeared into the night.

Xia Zhengbiao looked at the torn T-shirt in his hand, feeling like crying but unable to do so.

If I had known that man was so powerful, I would have said nothing about it and would not have done anything to him.

Now, how can I stop a car without even a piece of clothing?
It seems I have no choice but to walk back.
