Unexpected Second Chance at Love [3]

CHAPTER 417: Ghost

If it had been the younger him from the past, he would have killed Xu Zheng on the spot instead of having him hang like a pig in a slaughterhouse.

However, he is different now.

After the former leader of Fate left this world, he had decided to leave Fate too. Of course, if Yue Ling ever needed his help, he would not hesistate to lend a helping hand to her.

During his time of traveling, he understood life better and came to realize that there is more out there in the world instead of staying in one place.

From his journeys in life, his patience now is different from the past him when he was still the Gold Fist, Zhi Jian Hong.

Now, he is simply Uncle Zhi, the treasure hunter.

He sighs a deep breath and waves his hand to the other two people in the room.

"I'm too old for this. I'll leave the rest for you two to decide on what to do with him."

Saying this, he turns the doorknob and push the door open. His figure then disappears from the room and silence returns with the faint sound of metal clanking.

"W-Who's there?"

Xu Zheng asks with a trembling voice after hearing Zhi Jian Hong's words. He had been so focused on the man that he had forgotten about the other two sets of footsteps he heard.

What are they planning to do with him?

However, no one answered him, but the quietness inside the room.

"Who's there? I know someone is still in this room."

"Ghooost."

"..."

Xu Zheng froze from the ghost like voice, but just as he was about to pee himself, a chuckle sounds with the echo of footsteps approach him from behind.

The two people slowly made their way around the man hanging so that he can see their faces.

However, what Xu Zheng saw shook him. Why is he seeing two figures with the same face? Is he still drunk?

His eyes squeeze shut multiple times to adjust his sighting. He needed to make sure his conscious was not playing with him.

"Zhongmin, I think he thinks he's seeing things."

Gui Tian Lan spoke a chuckle as he stares at Xu Zheng. Taking a few steps closer, he squats down to be at eye level with the man hanging from the ceiling.

A faint smile curls on his lip and he asks.

"How are you hanging?"

Hearing the question, Xu Zheng was dumbfounded. He is being hung from the ceiling and this son of a bitch still has time to joke with him?

If he was tied up here, he would have killed this stupid man of asking such a stupid question.

Gui Zhongmin shook his head at his older twin brother. Turning away, he walks to one of the walls in the room.

"Let's hurry up and finish here."

They were ordered to take care of this fat pig and return to join everyone else. Hopefully by the time they are done, they haven't missed out on any of the actions outside.

"W-What are you guys p-planning to d-do?"

Xu Zheng trembles his words when he heard Gui Zhongmin. He looks at Gui Tian Lan, then at Gui Zhongmin, but the man was no longer in sight.

Seeing the fear not only in Xu Zheng's eyes, but also on his face, Gui Tian Lan smiles with his eyes closed.

He slowly lift his right hand and reveals a long thin needle between his index and middle finger.
