Chapter 745: Change in Plans
***************
CHAPTER 745
POW!
Her eyes flew open the moment his hand landed on her cheek.
The force had sent her not stable body falling to the side as her head almost touched the ground.
“Bitch!”
One of the men beside them spun around on his heels as he noticed the loud smack that landed on their victim and his eyes flew open.
.....
“Dude! What the hell,” he began but stopped when he noticed the man lifting his hand to land her another deafening slap.
Immediately he bridged the gap between them and pushed up to him away from Li Jing, clutching at his collar hard.
“What’s the meaning of this?!” The second guy hollered, seeking answers as he scanned the other guy’s eyes for it.
CLICK!
To Li Jing’s surprise, they heard the sound of a gun click from behind them as the third man stepped forward pointing his gun at them.
“Hey,” the second guy called out without looking at the man behind him. “Call the others and let’s have him subdued. This was never part of the plan.”
Instead of doing as he was told, he heard footsteps coming closer to him and soon the cold moth of a gun was pressed firmly against his head.
Li Jing gasped but had it surprised by her restraint as her already shocked-filled eyes widened some more, staring at the scene before her.
“What the hell is the meaning of this?”
“Take a step away from him,” the third man instructed in a cold voice, keeping his eyes on the second guy.
“What the hell is the meaning of this?” The second man inquired, defiantly.
“Stop asking questions and do as you are told,” he stated squarely. “Now.”
He pressed the gun against his head firmly, waiting for the second guy to obey.
Immediately he let go of the guy’s shirt and raised his hands in a surrendering manner.
“Guys, what is going on?”
“I said, shut up. Take three steps back and no funny business,” the third guy ordered again.
“Okay. Okay. As you wish.”
Li Jing watched from the side as he took the three steps accordingly and did not do anything funny.
With each step he took back, the third guy followed after him, creating a bit of space between them.
“Can you guys tell me the meaning of this? If it is a joke, stop it now, there is still time to laugh over this,” he suggested.
“Shut up. We head this operation now that the hostage is under our jurisdiction. Whatever we say go.”
‘Hey. That was not the plan. The boss ordered we treat her well and not let anything happen to her till we receive a signal.”
‘That was a signal for your escape and to flee, leaving her behind when the police or whoever arrives,” the first guy pointed out.
“So? We get the cool cash in the end.”
“Is that what your lousy brain can cook up? Or did you never really ask and was kept in the dark?” The first guy questioned with a mug expression.
“Laugh all you want. I follow orders and do the right thing.”
“As do we. Sadly, we get our orders from different people.” His eyes darkened as he took a big step forward.
“I doubt your orders are good but you cannot override us.”
“Hahaaa,” a bitter cruel laughter that sent chills running down Li Jing’s spine tore through his throat at once.
POW!
A punch was thrown across the face of the second man who seemed like Li Jing’s only hope at this point, sending his head to the side but he maintained his stand and looked back up.
“This is no longer a joke,” he spat out with more cruelty in his voice as he stared the first man down.
“It never was. Our goal is to beat her up baldly she would wish to be dead. Your mission was to capture her to steal her from our grasp. Sadly, my boos knew better than to follow through leaving the hiring of men to your boss,” the first man explained crackling his fingers, ready for another bullying.
And the others? Do they work for you too?”
“Well, we all are three here, amongst the general six of us that did the kidnapping. I think my convincing skills worked out well.”
“For how long?”
“Since the day I knew the names of the men involved. I took my time visiting them and offering a much better deal and here we are today, taking your men from you.”
“Funny. You cannot get away with hurting her,” the second spat out, ignoring the spite in those eyes of his.
“Well, we only live once. Orders are orders. Not my cup of tea. If I kill you now, I can easily get away with anything at this point, he pointed out.
“Yeah right.”
“I suggest you keep quiet or I pull the trigger,” the thirst man reminded him of his presence, stepping close and letting him feel the gun solidly behind him.
“Thanks for that gentle reminder mate,” the second man stated and to their surprise, he leaned forward, kicking the groin of the man holding the gun shocking the first man.
Swiftly he raised his head and punched the first man hard in his face, causing him to stumble.
The second man turned on his head and grabbed the hand of the man holding the gun and yanked it away from him while he held his crotch twisting his face in a contorted expression.
“Damn it.”
The first man retaliated, throwing a punch but the second man ducked easily to the side sending his elbow right at his side and using his weight to push him away from him.
Merely looking at him, Li Jing could tell he was less bulky in nature than the other two but that gave him an advantage as he was lighter on his feet and even better, he was swifter.
To the other two men’s dismay, he landed them equal punches and pushed them together as he quickly scrambled from the gun that had fallen and before either of them could lift their head, he pointed the gun at them.
“On your knees, now!”
