  “Alright, that’s enough! He’ll be dead if this continues!” Tang Hao shouted.

  Then, he took out his phone and gave Captain Zhou a call. He briefly explained the situation so that Captain Zhou could come and arrest them.

  Then, he gave Sis Xiangyi a call.

  Captain Zhou arrived shortly after. His mouth was agape when he saw the condition in the nightclub.

  Knowing Tang Hao’s extraordinary abilities, he was not too surprised.

  Tang Hao sent Ma Fangfang to the police station. After she recorded her statement, he sent her home.

  “Everything’s OK now. Take a good rest! I’ll take care of the old bastard,” Tang Hao said.

  “Mm,” Ma Fangfang replied gently. Then, she suddenly took a step forward and hugged Tang Hao tightly. “You don’t have to leave tonight if you don’t want to,” she said softly.

  Her tone of voice carried some coyness. The implications were crystal clear.

  Tang Hao scratched his head, feeling a little awkward.

  It was a tempting invitation, but Tang Hao dared not accept it.

  “I’m just saying. I know that you have a girlfriend.” Ma Fangfang laughed after a while.

  She had overheard the phone call earlier.

  “However, as long as you’re willing, you can come to my house any time. I’ll be waiting for you!” She smiled cheekily. Then, she tiptoed, hugged Tang Hao’s neck, and delivered a kiss on his lips.

  Tang Hao was stunned. The warm, tender sensation on his lips caused him to go into a daze.

  After a long while, she let go of him. Her cheeks were burning red.

  “I’ll… I’ll be going in!” She said gingerly, then turned around and headed into the house.

  Tang Hao stood on the spot for a very long time.

  When he came to his senses, he guiltily touched his lips.

  His phone started ringing when he was downstairs.

  “Hello, Brother Tang! I’ve found that old bastard. He’s trying to make a run for it. He’s on his way to the long-distance bus terminal now,” Wu Bao said over the phone.

  “Got it!”

  After the call ended, Tang Hao’s face became icy cold.

  Zhou Delong was a hardened criminal. With the kidnapping and attempted rape charges, he would be locked up for decades. However, that old bastard would only be sentenced to a few years in prison if caught.

  After that, he might still return to harass Ma Fangfang. He had to be removed completely to prevent any future troubles. Tang Hao did not have any mercy for people who were worse than animals.

  He immediately rushed toward the bus terminal.

  A few minutes later, Tang Hao found Huang Haijiang in an alley near the bus terminal.

  He carried a big bag with him. He wore a hat and moved suspiciously.

  Tang Hao grunted coldly and walked toward him.

  Huang Haijiang turned to look. He was scared out of his wits when he saw Tang Hao. “Why… Why are you here?”

  “Thinking of running away? It’s not that easy!” Tang Hao smirked.

  “What… What do you want? Go away! Let me tell you, I’m Fangfang’s father. If you want to be with her, you’ll have to call me father-in-law!”

  Huang Haijiang looked around him and saw that no one else was around. He was beginning to fear for his life.

  “Father-in-law?” Tang Hao burst out laughing. “Do human scum like you deserve to be called Fangfang’s father? What kind of father would sell their own daughter?

  “You don’t deserve to be a father. No, you don’t deserve to be alive!” Tang Hao roared as he took a few steps forward.

  Huang Haijiang was red with anger. “None of your business! What right do you have to scold me?”

  Tang Hao narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “You shouldn’t be left alive in this world. Fangfang can only be free of you when you’re dead.”

  He flicked his wrist, and a jade talisman flew out of his hand.

  Boom!

  The jade talisman exploded into a burst of fire and light, burning Huang Haijiang to ashes.

  Chapter 128 - Another Idiot Appears

  Late at night, at the rooftop of a skyscraper.

  Tang Hao was sitting there with an alchemist’s furnace in front of him. Fire was burning brightly within the furnace, and the popping wisps of flame illuminated his face.

  Ever since he obtained the alchemist’s furnace, Tang Hao had been studying the art of pill-making.

  Making pills was harder than crafting talismans. Even in ancient times, not many cultivators dabbled in the art of pill-making.

  There was a shortage of resources in modern times, making pill-making harder than ever.

  Even if it might be difficult, Tang Hao was still eager to learn it. There were many types of alchemical pills. Some improved upon one’s level of cultivation, and some caused great harm. Another type was called medical pills.

  Even as alchemical pills, medical pills had miraculous effects. The most amazing ones could restore flesh to the bone and return life to the dead.

  The potions he had made before: Weight-loss potions, aphrodisiac potions, and others were nothing compared to medical pills.

  Furthermore, with his current level of medical skills, he could only cure certain ailments. He was still helpless against certain terminal diseases. With the help of medical pills, there was no earthly ailment that he could not cure.

  Tang Hao focused his energy to control the flames in the alchemist’s furnace.

  He was practicing the art of flame control. Controlling the intensity of the flame was one of the most important factors in making alchemical pills.

  His practice lasted through the night.

  Some time after three o’clock in the morning, Tang Hao returned to the mansion and took a short nap.

  After breakfast and seeing Sis Xiangyi off, Tang Hao rode on his little three-wheeled motorcycle as usual and went to Dragonrock Village to tend to his secret plantation.

  Then, he went to his company.

  At work, he noticed that his assistant was not very attentive. It was the first time that Tang Hao had seen her behave like that.

  “Assistant Han!”

  Tang Hao put away the documents in his hand and called her.

  Han Yutong was standing there with a pile of documents in her hands. She was in a daze and did not hear Tang Hao call her.

  Tang Hao became even more curious. “Assistant Han!” He called out again.

  Han Yutong came to her senses and said urgently, “Is there something, President Tang?”

  Tang Hao examined her. “What’s up with you today? You’re not very attentive… You didn’t sleep well last night?”

  Han Yutong smiled and flicked her hair. “Nothing! I’m fine, President Tang!”

  Tang Hao could see that her smile was rather forced, and there was a hint of unease between her brows.

  Tang Hao did not probe further since she did not say anything.

  A long while later, Han Yutong said abruptly, “President Tang, I might be resigning in a few days.”

  Tang Hao was surprised. He looked incredulously at her. “What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly resigning? Is your salary not enough? That’s easy, I’ll give you a raise immediately.”

  He was very satisfied with Han Yutong’s work performance. Furthermore, he was used to her work style. It would take some time to get used to a new assistant if she resigned.

  “No!” Han Yutong shook her head and said apologetically, “It’s not because of you or the company, President Tang. It’s for personal reasons. I should be leaving Westridge District in the next few days.”

  “You’re returning to Provincial City?”

  Tang Hao knew that she was not local.

  “It’s not that either. I plan to travel to other places,” Han Yutong said.

  “Is that so!” Tang Hao sounded disappointed.

  He could not stop her if she wanted to resign, though he felt a little sorry.

 
; Han Yutong smiled again. “Don’t worry, President Tang. I’ll still be working here for the next few days, and I’ll do my best to complete my tasks. To be honest, I’ll miss you.”

  Han Yutong felt a little sentimental when she said that.

  At the start, she thought that the boss of hers was rather weird. She thought that she had walked into a trap. However, half a month later, her opinion on Tang Hao started to change as they got to know each other better.

  The boss was a weird one. He dressed casually and often went into the mountains on his little three-wheeled motorcycle. No one knew what he was there for.

  Other than that, she had no complaints about other aspects of his personality. He was an easy-going person, and unlike other men, he did not lust over her.

  “If you miss me, then you shouldn’t leave!” Tang Hao said helplessly.

  Han Yutong smiled but did not reply.

  All the work was complete in the afternoon, and Tang Hao was prepared to go home. Han Yutong went downstairs with him.

  Tang Hao rode on his little three-wheeled motorcycle and prepared to leave.

  Suddenly, the violent rumble of a sports car engine was heard at one corner of the street. A sports car drove along the road as fast as lightning toward the building, where it stopped with loud screeching brakes.

  Everyone’s attention was drawn to the sports car.

  The area was a bustling commercial center with office buildings all around. It was the evening rush hour and people were leaving their offices to go home. They looked and pointed at the sports car and exclaimed in admiration.

  Tang Hao was not very well-versed in sports cars. From the discussion around him, he knew that it was an expensive sports car worth tens of millions.

  A car door opened. A tall man in a trim business suit stepped out. His entire body screamed nobility.

  He was in his mid-twenties. His sculpted face was extremely handsome, and he carried the air of a wealthy person.

  The street immediately boiled over with intense activity. Some women shrieked.

  “Look at him, he’s so handsome and rich!”

  Meanwhile, all the men around looked at him with envy. Some were lamenting their fate, while some resigned helplessly.

  That person obviously had rich parents. They were not ‘typically rich’ either.

  That man stood next to his car and looked around him. His eyes sparkled when he noticed something, then walked toward a particular direction.

  Tang Hao was surprised when he saw where the rich person was heading.

  Standing there was none other than his assistant, Han Yutong.

  Han Yutong’s face was pale at that moment. Instead of love and admiration, her face was replete with disgust when she saw him.

  “I’ve finally found you, Yutong!” That man said romantically as he walked in front of Han Yutong.

  Han Yutong was unmoved. “What do you want, Luo Feng?” She said angrily.

  Luo Feng was taken aback. “What do you mean, Yutong? I’m not asking for a lot! I only want you to return with me to Provincial City. Isn’t that better than living in a crummy town like this?

  “Look at the company you’re in. It’s so small and run-down. It’s not a match for you. How can I bear to see you suffer in a run-down company like that?”

  As he spoke, Luo Feng lifted a hand and pointed at the signboard of Haotian Co. Ltd.

  Tang Hao was angry beyond words when he heard that.

  Someone was saying that his company was run-down in front of him. That was a slap on his face!

  His face darkened and veins bulged on his forehead. His gaze on Luo Feng turned hostile.

  He guessed that Assistant Han’s subpar performance today must have had something to do with that idiot named Luo Feng.

  Chapter 129 - Overdosing On Idiot Pills

  Han Yutong stood there with an icy expression.

  “Luo Feng, where I choose to live and work is none of your business. I’ve already told you to never look for me. Can’t you understand?”

  Luo Feng’s expression stiffened. “Yutong, why can’t you appreciate what I’m doing for you? I am whole-heartedly devoted to you. Can’t you see that?”

  Han Yutong furrowed her brows and assumed a disdainful expression.

  “Please return with me, Yutong. You wish to work? Sure, you can pick whatever position you want in Luo Enterprises. Isn’t my Luo Enterprises a hundred times, no, a thousand times better than this run-down company?”

  Everyone exclaimed in surprise when they heard that. The people around them looked shocked.

  “Oh my god! Luo Enterprises?” The people exclaimed incredulously.

  Luo Enterprises was one of the biggest business conglomerates in Province Z. It was renowned throughout Huaxia and was a behemoth compared to any company in the district.

  “Luo Feng? Right! He’s the second son of the head of Luo Enterprises,” someone shouted.

  The crowd went wild again.

  The females in the crowd looked at him with eager eyes.

  He was so handsome and cool, and he was one of the heirs to Luo Enterprises. He was the Prince Charming in many women’s dreams.

  They looked at Han Yutong with envy.

  Tang Hao raised an eyebrow when he heard the discussion among the people around him.

  He naturally had heard of Luo Enterprises before. It was renowned in the province and was as big as Tai An Group.

  “Are you done with making a fool of yourself, Luo Feng? I don’t want anything to do with you. Also, in my eyes, your Luo Enterprises isn’t any better than the company I’m in now,” Han Yutong said coldly.

  Luo Feng was shocked, then broke out laughing. He pointed at the building behind Han Yutong and said, “Haha! How can a small building like that compare with my Luo Enterprises?

  “What a joke! Run-down companies like this one are nothing more than ants in my eyes. I can crush a few of them with my finger.

  “If you don’t want to leave with me, then I’ll go look for your boss and ask her to fire you. I’ll see how you can continue surviving here.” Luo Feng’s face darkened and turned sinister.

  “Save your breath. I’ve already prepared to resign,” Han Yutong said coldly.

  “Good timing! You can follow me home then!” Luo Feng reached out to grab Han Yutong’s arm as he spoke.

  Han Yutong took a step back and evaded him.

  She was livid. “Luo Feng, I’ll never follow you.”

  Luo Feng gritted his teeth. “You’re not following me back? Fine, then don’t ever think of working again. Whenever you get a new job, I’ll ruin you. I’ll see how you can survive.”

  “You… Luo Feng, you’re shameless!” Han Yutong said angrily.

  “Shameless? It’s nothing!” Luo Feng smirked. “I suggest that you resign your current job now. Otherwise, I’ll look for your boss and ask her to fire you!

  “If she doesn’t, then I’ll wreck her company. The company will go bankrupt and shut down.”

  Luo Feng’s handsome face flashed with viciousness.

  Tang Hao was livid when he heard that.

  ‘Is this guy overdosing on idiot pills? Why is he being such an arrogant douchebag? He says that my company is run-down, and now he’s threatening to shut me down.’

  How could he tolerate that?

  Muttering angrily, Tang Hao pushed his little three-wheeled motorcycle and went to Luo Feng. He pointed a finger at him and started cursing.

  “Hey, you bastard! Yes, I’m talking to you! What’s wrong with you? Do you have a hole in your brain? Can’t you see that she doesn’t like you? Do you have any self-respect left?

  “And what’s up with those empty threats? Are you still a man? Tsk tsk, you look like a man but behave like a dog.”

  Luo Feng was stunned when he heard someone talking to him like that. He stood on the spot with an incredulous face.

  With his status, no one had dared to talk to him like that. Those were unusually harsh words, too.
/>
  Even the crowd around them also looked incredulous.

  They knew that Luo Feng was the Second Young Master of Luo Enterprises. Was that guy crazy to cross himself with him?

  Han Yutong turned to look at who was speaking. She was stunned too.

  “You… You dare speak to me like that?” Luo Feng finally came to his senses. He was trembling with anger and his face was ashen.

  “Yes, I’m talking to you! You’re harassing my assistant. Don’t you have any self-respect?” As he spoke, Tang Hao pushed his little three-wheeled motorcycle next to Han Yutong.

  Luo Feng was taken aback, then he said, “What do you mean by ‘your assistant’? What are you saying, you poor loser?”

  He looked at Tang Hao with abject disgust.

  The person in front of him was dressed so shabbily and rode on a shabby three-wheeled motorcycle. What was he, if not for a poor loser? How was he related to Han Yutong?

  “President Tang!” Han Yutong called.

  Luo Feng was stunned when he heard that.

  How is it possible?

  That shabby kid with a three-wheeled motorcycle was Haotian Co. Ltd.’s boss? What a joke!

  A poor kid in shabby clothes could not have been the boss of a company, no matter how small or run-down the company might be.

  His expression changed drastically.

  Before this, Han Yutong had always worked at companies with female bosses. Why was it a male this time?

  “He’s really your boss?” Luo Feng asked sternly as he looked at Han Yutong.

  “So what if he is?” Han Yutong said coldly.

  Luo Feng’s facial muscles twitched and contorted. “How shameless can you be to work under a guy like that?” He cursed as he pointed at Han Yutong.

  “You too. You’d better fire her and leave her alone. Otherwise, you’ll see what I can do to you!” Luo Feng pointed at Tang Hao and yelled.

  Tang Hao chuckled. Then, he roared, “Who the hell are you to ask me to fire her? Why should I listen to you? Let me tell you, she’s an employee of Haotian Co. Ltd. now. I’d like to see you try laying a finger on her.”
