Unexpected Second Chance at Love [3]

CHAPTER 428: Which hand?

Gongi's bottom lip began to tremble uncontrollably. He could feel the hard and cold tip of something metal touch his back. The touch alone was enough for him to tell that it was a gun.

"W-What is this? Are you betraying boss?!!"

He shouts in rage but was not willing to turn and see who it is. The reason why he assumed it was the same man who interrupted him because the man only took one step back. He (the unknown man) did not leave.

Thinking that there is a traitor amongst them, he looks at Man 1 who had not moved a muscle since their arrival.

"Why the fuck are you still sleeping? Fucken wake up!!"

He roars at the top of his lungs but could feel the tip of the gun press more against his back.

A shiver shot through his entire body. It felt like the gun had turned into a snake and was slithering on his spine.

Before he could think any further, Man 1 slowly, but finally moves from his spot.

Gongi's eyes glisten in relief knowing that he will be saved. Man 1 is a capable and strong person, he will definitely take down whoever it is that is behind him.

However, Man 1 did not stand up like Gongi had hoped for. His body slowly slides towards Gongi and lands on the cold floor with his head coming to view under the light.

"..."

It was then, Gongi finally saw the ripped hole on the mask. The blood that stained Man 1's forehead can be seen despite the mask still on. His eyes were wide open even after death.

"Ahh-!!"

Terrified by the sudden greeting, Gongi jumps back in horror. Only this time, he was the one who pressed his own back deeply against the gun. He groan at the sharp pain and remembers the man holding the gun to him.

"W-Why are y-you doing this? Aren't w-we brothers?"

He stuttered his words but cursed inside in wonder of where the other two bastards went. Can't they see that he is being held at gun point?

"You touched her."

A deep and cold voice answers from behind. It sounded like a low growl, but Gongi could only focus on the three words that were spoken.

Each word felt like the weight of a giant mountain place on his shoulders one after another.

However, his brows furrow in confusion. Did any of the three men have such a deep voice like this? How come he doesn't remember?

As he spoke to himself, the sound of rustling awoke him back to reality. What he saw shook him even more by surprise.

"Y..."

Yue Ling, who was tied to the chair was now standing up. The rope that was once around her is neatly placed on the chair behind her.

She was taller than him by a full head as he stares up at her and she down to him.

However, Gongi could only ask more questions inside his head. When did she free herself? And was she always this tall?

Seeing him so confused about the situation, Yue Ling gives him a smile that reach her eyes. She lifts her hand to reveal a very simple black pen.

Just as Gongi was contemplating at why she would have a pen, her thumb presses the end cap. It sounds a click and Gongi's voice sounds again. His recorded words echoes inside Uncle Zhi's shop on repeat.

"Y-You fucken bitch! Give that to me!!!"

Gongi lash out in rage and tries to grab the voice recording pen. However, Yue Ling was quicker than him. She calmly turns away and avoids his claw like hand as she walks away like the man was never there.
