Hearing Murong Fei’s words, Qin Tian was startled.

"President Fei, I was actually about to discuss something with you," he said. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Qin Tian, if you’re scared..."

"I want to take charge of the security for the East Park project."

"Hmm?"

As Qin Tian’s words fell, Murong Fei’s beautiful eyes blinked, a surprised expression emerging on her lovely face.

The office fell silent for two seconds.

"What did you say?" Murong Fei asked as if she hadn’t heard Qin Tian clearly.

In her mind, Qin Tian was ignorant and unlearned, especially within the company, only knowing how to idle his time away. Confronted with such formidable forces, particularly after seeing Sun Shuai badly injured, she had expected him to be scared and to proactively request a transfer away from the Security Department.

But to her surprise, Qin Tian actually volunteered to go to the most dangerous East Park.

Murong Fei’s shock was truly very unusual.

"I said, I’ll take responsibility for the security of East Park."

This time, Qin Tian’s tone changed, not sounding like a negotiation, but as if he had made the decision himself.

"You, you’re going? This..."

Murong Fei was a bit at a loss for words, not knowing how to respond in the moment.

"Sun Shuai couldn’t handle it, and you?" she looked at Qin Tian.

"Heh, you’re comparing me to Sun Shuai?" Qin Tian laughed, "It seems in your heart, I’m even inferior to Sun Shuai."

"That’s not what I mean. I’m saying, Sun Shuai’s social network is wider than yours, if you go... Qin Tian, don’t be impulsive. If something happens to you, I..."

"You’ll become a widow?"

"Cut it out; I’m trying to be serious here."

Taken off guard by Qin Tian’s joke, Murong Fei glared at him and said, "If something happens to you, I can’t face my grandfather."

"No worries, if something happens to me, that will just fulfill your wish. Then you won’t have to marry me," Qin Tian said with a smile.

"You... you don’t know what’s good for you," Murong Fei was a bit speechless. At such a serious moment, Qin Tian could still crack a joke? Didn’t he realize how dangerous East Park was?

"Just kidding, hehe." Seeing that Murong Fei seemed a bit angry, Qin Tian quickly changed his tune.

"Then why would you volunteer to go?"

"Because you’re my wife."

After saying that, Qin Tian stood up and actually left Murong Fei’s office.

Murong Fei wanted to get angry, but as she saw the carefree way Qin Tian walked out, she was momentarily stunned, watching him leave without saying a word.

...

That afternoon, the adjustments to the Security Department were announced on the official website of Murong Group Company.

Qin Tian was promoted to acting Security Team Leader, and he was assigned to take charge of security matters at East Park.

As for how many people Qin Tian would take with him, it was completely up to him to decide.

However, two of the security guards Sun Shuai had taken last time were injured, and the remaining seven had returned to the company’s headquarters due to Sun Shuai’s severe injuries.

That afternoon, an entire meeting of the Security Department was held, chaired by the newly appointed acting Security Team Leader, Qin Tian.

All fourteen members of the security team attended.

"I’m preparing to go to East Park. Who among you is willing to go with me voluntarily?" Qin Tian asked pointedly at the meeting.

This had to be voluntary; those unwilling would not be forced by Qin Tian.

However, as soon as he had spoken, he saw the security personnel below, all looking down and staying silent.

"None of you are willing to go with me?" Qin Tian asked again.

"I’m willing to go."

Liu Ping’an stood up and said, "Wherever you go, team leader, I’ll follow. I’m with you."

"Who else is willing to go?" Qin Tian gestured for Liu Ping’an to sit down and asked again.

Even with Liu Ping’an setting an example, no one else responded.

These ordinary people, earning a security guard’s salary, why would they risk their lives? No one wanted to take the risk.

"If you won’t go, I won’t insist. Since that’s the case, then it’ll just be me and Liu Ping’an..."

"I am willing to go."

Qin Tian hadn’t finished speaking when he saw a security guard stand up from the back, looking at Qin Tian, "I’ll go."

"Good, then it’ll be me, Liu Ping’an, and Li Guolin. We three will go. The headquarters here will be in charge of Chen Chao," Qin Tian said, nodding to Li Guolin who had stood up. He was a bit surprised by this brave young man.

On the way to East Park in the car, Qin Tian asked Li Guolin, "Guolin, why are you willing to go with me?"

"Because you dealt with Huang Zhenggang and Huang Zhengxiong last time. They bullied me every day; I hate them. You helped me get revenge," Li Guolin said nonchalantly.

"I think you, Captain Qin, will do better than the previous team leaders. I want to work with you," Li Guolin added at the end.

The three of them arrived at East Park and settled down.

Over there, there were nine security guards who had already received the notification, all coming under Qin Tian’s command.

The next day, construction at the site proceeded as usual, with Qin Tian arranging for Liu Ping’an and Li Guolin to each lead a team, two people per team, to patrol different areas. Additionally, all the monitors in the surveillance room were turned on to fully grasp the surroundings of the construction site.

The morning passed without incident, but even as the afternoon sun blazed down, security remained vigilant.

"Boss, someone’s coming!"

Just as Qin Tian was resting in the temporary office, Liu Ping’an rushed in, his expression grave as he addressed Qin Tian.

Qin Tian went to the surveillance room and saw two Chang’an cars pull up and stop on the concrete road outside the construction site. About a dozen people got out of the vehicles.

"Damn, they really dared to come!"

Seeing the group exit, especially upon recognizing the leader as Old Nine Cigarette Butt, Qin Tian not only showed no sign of nervousness but instead a smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Boss, what should we do? Should we call the police?" Liu Ping’an asked anxiously.

"Call the police? No need, today I’m going to meet them properly."

After Qin Tian spoke, he walked straight out of the surveillance room. "Fatty, gather all the security guards, we’ll block them."

"Yo-ho, is it you?"

Seeing Qin Tian, Cigarette Butt was taken aback, then broke into laughter, "Boy, fate really does bring enemies together. Last time you had the upper hand with numbers; this time, heh heh, fortune has turned, and you’re in for it!"

"Cigarette Butt, last time you showed me your amazing act of swallowing cigarette butts alive, mmm, not bad. What performance have you prepared for me today?"

Although Liu Ping’an and the others were very nervous, Qin Tian was confident and chuckled.

Hearing Qin Tian bring up the last time he was humiliated, Cigarette Butt’s brow furrowed and his facial expression grew even uglier.

"Hmph, kid, you call yourself Qin Tian, right? I heard you’re the boss of the Fire Dragon Gang? Since when did the Fire Dragon Gang become so low-level, letting a greenhorn kid be the boss? Just with you here today to keep the field?"

Cigarette Butt glanced over Qin Tian’s men behind him, who were all trembling in fear, and he became even more arrogant.

"Cigarette Butt, I told you to walk around me. Did you take my words for the blowing wind?" Qin Tian stood with his hands behind his back, his fists already gripped tight, ready for action at any moment.

"Walk around you upon seeing you? You overestimate yourself!"

Cigarette Butt grinned ferociously, quite confident in his own fighting skills. He might have been wary if Wild Boar was there, but today, with only Qin Tian and more of his own people, was there anything to fear?

"Initially, I came here just to take a look and leave, but now that I’ve seen an old acquaintance, I guess I’ll have to say hello first. Brothers, just go for it and beat them up!"

With a sinister sneer, Cigarette Butt waved his hand, and more than a dozen of his men, clutching steel pipes, charged straight towards Qin Tian and his group.

"Fatty, you guys stick together and hide behind me; I’ll take them on!"

Qin Tian knew that Liu Ping’an and the others were not strong fighters, so he warned them to be cautious.

"Boss, do you need a steel pipe?" Li Guolin offered two steel pipes he was holding.

"Heh, Guolin, you’re going to make them cough up blood!"

Qin Tian let out a faint smile, took the steel pipes handed to him by Li Guolin, turned around, and faced the oncoming Cigarette Butt and his men.

Clang clang clang!

It must be said, these men were ruthless and quite experienced in fighting, with a fierce momentum. Qin Tian’s first three moves were all defensive.

However, to Cigarette Butt watching, this was laughable. It seemed this guy was just this skilled?

Thereupon, holding a steel pipe, Cigarette Butt charged directly at Qin Tian: "Kid, you think you’re so tough? It’s time for Brother Cigarette Butt to take care of you!"

As he spoke, Cigarette Butt rushed towards Qin Tian, wielding the steel pipe and violently attacking him.

Qin Tian, with quick reflexes, easily dodged Cigarette Butt’s attacks.

As a goon from behind tried to sneak up on Qin Tian, Qin Tian knitted his brows and struck down with his club!

Clang!

As the steel pipes collided, the goon felt his arm go numb, and then, the steel pipe fell to the ground—Qin Tian’s strength was ten times greater than he had imagined!

"Get out of the way!"

In the moment, the goon tried to pick up his steel pipe, Qin Tian struck down with a thud, hitting his back, and the goon was slammed to the ground.

"I’ll show you wild!"

Cigarette Butt charged up again, furiously attacking Qin Tian.

"Just with you? You think you can take me on in a one-on-one? Way too confident!"

Seeing Cigarette Butt’s confident demeanor, a chilling smile crossed Qin Tian’s lips.

That chilling smile often heralded the start of his rampage!

"Come on then! I’ll let you hit me!"

Qin Tian switched from defense to offense, suddenly, with a ferocious momentum, he turned the tables and launched a fierce attack on Cigarette Butt!

Cigarette Butt was a bit dazed, originally thinking he had the upper hand. Turned out Qin Tian had been holding back, and now that his full strength came into play, Cigarette Butt felt somewhat overwhelmed.

"Hiss!"

After taking two strikes from Qin Tian in succession, his arms were incredibly sore.

But now, there was no room for backing down; Qin Tian’s attack like a violent storm followed one after another!

"I told you, in front of me, you Azure Dragon Gang members are trash!"

With a heavy blow from Qin Tian, Cigarette Butt felt his arms go numb, barely blocking Qin Tian’s strike, but his steel pipe shook out of his grip and he staggered back two steps.

"Someone, block him for me!"

Seeing Qin Tian swinging the steel pipe towards him, Cigarette Butt panicked, his face turned pale, and he cried for help loudly.
