The Genius Sweetheart of the Abstinent Goblin Boss

Jingying nodded firmly at him.

Zeng Yichen clenched his fists, unable to make up his mind, and could no longer feel the pain from the wound on his hands.

"How sincere you are!" Zeng Nian covered his bleeding forehead and gave the group a very strange smile.

The three of them turned around at the same time, their faces each more ashen than the last.

"Zeng Nian, let them go," Jing Ying said.

Zeng Nian, his face covered in blood, grinned menacingly as if he'd heard a joke: "You think you're qualified to negotiate with me?!"

As he spoke, he raised his pistol and pointed it at the three men: "None of you will escape!"

Upon seeing this, Zeng Yichen immediately stepped in front of his mother, his once bright eyes now completely dimmed.

"Stop it, stop doing this."

Zeng Nian's hand, which was holding the gun, began to struggle once again.

They had once regarded him as a glorious son, but now they saw his completely distorted soul.

He really wanted to destroy him immediately, to destroy the shame of stripping him naked, to destroy the uncomfortable embarrassment he felt.

His hand trembled wildly once again, as if the bullet was about to be released.

"Don't touch him!"

An Lian roared and, without thinking, forcefully stood in front of Zeng Yichen.

"sister in law……"

Zeng Yichen was startled. Even though he had a good relationship with his sister-in-law, he was still deeply moved when she actually stood in front of the gun for him without hesitation.

Seeing this, Zeng Nian seemed to have found an outlet for his frustration.

Because of that bitch An Lian, Zeng Yan rebelled against her, and Zeng Yichen betrayed her after learning the truth.

It's this bitch! She's the one who caused all of this today!!

She must die!

The next second, Zeng Nian frantically pressed the trigger, repeatedly, even after firing the two bullets in the gun, he continued to press it as if venting his anger.

But a figure was faster than him, rushing out from the side with lightning speed and lunging towards An Lian, taking the two bullets with his body.

A moment later, everyone snapped out of their shock.

"Zeng Yan!!!"

"elder brother!!!"

An Lian and Zeng Yichen's voices rang out almost simultaneously.

The two then rushed forward in a panic to check on Zeng Yan's condition.

Even Jingying was stunned, staring wide-eyed at Zeng Yan lying in front of her, seemingly unable to believe that the person who rushed out to take the bullet was actually him.

Zeng Nian's eyes were full of gloom, without a trace of worry or heartache, only anger at Zeng Yan for repeatedly disobeying him and ruining his chance to get rid of An Lian.

He held out his hand, asking his subordinates to give him a fully loaded gun.

But at this moment, Zeng Yan struggled to his feet and raised his gun, pointing it at Zeng Nian.

Immediately, all of Zeng Nian's men sounded their alarms and raised their pistols, aiming them at Zeng Yan.

Zeng Nian, however, scoffed and mocked:

"What? You beast, are you planning to kill your father?"

Zeng Yan was panting heavily, his face pale.

"Isn't it normal for a beast to kill its father?"

Zeng Nian's face darkened rapidly. He grabbed a pistol and slowly walked forward:

"Fine, since you insist on courting death, then you and your sweetheart can become a pair of ghost lovers."

"I'll kill you first, then kill An Lian, and send her down to join you. That way, our father-son relationship won't have been in vain."

As he spoke, he stopped two meters away from Zeng Yan:

"Anyone who dared to oppose me is dead."

Zeng Yan narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the other person's hand movements. His mind was already starting to feel dizzy, but he still gripped the gun tightly.

Zeng Yichen clenched his fists tightly, staring fiercely at Zeng Nian. If Zeng Nian really dared to shoot and kill his brother and sister-in-law, he would really die with him today.

Zeng Nian also raised the arm holding the gun and slowly aimed it at Zeng Yan's forehead.

"What a boastful tone!"

A voice, completely out of place with the oppressive atmosphere, came from the doorway, breaking everyone's nerves.

Everyone was startled, including Zeng Nian, who turned his head sharply.

To their horror, they discovered that the visitor was none other than the leader's secretary.

Although the leader's secretary did not have as much real power as he did, everyone knew that he was the one with the most say in front of the leader.

"Secretary Lin..."

Zeng Nian's hand went limp, and the gun fell to the ground.

Secretary Lin glanced at Zeng Yan and his group of four, then looked at Zeng Nian, whose face had been gloomy just a moment ago but whose lips were now pale, and said coldly and mockingly:

"General Zeng, I have some curiosity after hearing what you said."

"When did this country of China come to be surnamed Zeng?"

Zeng Nian's whole body stiffened, and he forced a smile:

"Oh...oh, no, Secretary Lin, please don't make fun of me."

"Hehe~" Secretary Lin chuckled coldly: "I heard that General Zeng is having some trouble dealing with his family matters."

"No!" Zeng Nian chuckled awkwardly, "Such a small matter wouldn't bother Secretary Lin..."

He then lowered his voice slightly and said in a slightly ingratiating tone, "Please, Secretary Lin, do not disturb the leader about this matter."

Secretary Lin looked at his hypocritical demeanor, a flash of disgust crossing her eyes:

"I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help with that."

Zeng Nian was annoyed that he refused outright. He had only given this lackey some face out of respect for the leader, but the lackey really thought he was something special.

But this person was someone you couldn't afford to offend, so Zeng Nian immediately suppressed the resentment and disdain in his eyes and tried to persuade him further.

But Secretary Lin didn't even glance at him. Instead, she took the phone from her assistant, her expression immediately becoming respectful.

"Chief, please give your instructions."

Zeng Nian was stunned, as if struck by lightning, and stood there dumbfounded.

"Please invite General Zeng back for a visit." Sure enough, Chief Luo's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes," Secretary Lin replied.

The call ended, and Secretary Lin handed the phone back to her assistant before taking two steps toward Zeng Nian, whose face was ashen.

"Let's go, General Zeng, Chief Luo invites you."

Zeng Nian's legs went weak, and he slid to the ground, his face filled with terror.

Secretary Lin ignored him, turned around, and addressed the Nationalist Army commander he had brought with him, giving the order:

"General Zeng is probably unable to walk upright right now. Find two people to help him. Also, handle the situation at the scene as it should be handled."

The military leader nodded and accepted the order.

With that, Secretary Lin left with her assistant.

Zeng Nian was also taken away by two Nationalist government generals.

The military leader led his troops toward Zeng Nian's equally pale-faced subordinates and coldly commanded:

“Take all of these people back for investigation.”

"Yes!!" his soldiers replied in unison.

After dealing with that group of people, the military leader headed towards Zeng Yan and his group of four.

Before he could get close, Zeng Yan could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.

"elder brother!!!"

"Zeng Yan!!!"

An Lian and Zeng Yichen's voices rang out again in unison.

Without even processing what had just happened, the two of them rushed forward and surrounded Zeng Yan.

Apart from Jingying, she remained standing there blankly, as if she didn't recognize the person lying on the ground in front of her.

Upon seeing this, the Nationalist Army Commander-in-Chief quickly stepped forward and knelt down to check Zeng Yan's condition. He then discovered that Zeng Yan had been shot and was bleeding, and was in critical condition. He immediately took out his mobile phone to call for help.
