Jia Lin could not move a muscle as he stared with slightly widened eyes at Lin Hui. His expression held a mixture of shock and slight nervousness.

He had heard the commotion from inside Red Moon and came out to check it out. After all, it was his duty to scare away any uninvited guests lurking outside their territory.

Never did he think he would be at gunpoint. However, what shocked him the most was that this person knew him.

His eyes gradually move from Lin Hui to the muzzle, inches away from his forehead. He swallows a hard gulp. He had forgotten to bring any weapon with him.

He looks back at Lin Hui and tries to maintain a calm composure. He needed to make it look like he wasn't afraid of the gun that could kill him at any given moment.

"Who are you?"

He could partially see Lin Hui's face due to the helmet but not enough to recognize the person. However, he acknowledges the dangerous glow within Lin Hui's eyes.

"This is Red Moon. If you don't have any business here, I suggest you leave."

Lin Hui did quiver at the intimidating words thrown at him. He had heard plenty of things about Jia Lin and what he was capable of doing.

It was said that Jia Lin was once the strongest fighter in the underworld arena.

But that was until Liu Shan appeared.

"I do have business here."

His eyes leisurely blink, and he moves his foot from Liu Peng, but he doesn't forget to kick the man before putting his foot down.

"With him."

Jia Lin's eyebrows creased, and he looks down at Liu Peng. He quickly recognized the man as one of the people who owe his boss money.

"What business do you have with him?"

His eyes shifted to Lin Hui, but a chill ran down his spine when he made direct eye contact again. He didn't know why but his guts told him not to make any careless move.

Lin Hui smiles from behind his helmet at the bulky man's words. He shrugged one shoulder and turned nonchalant for a split second.

"I mean, we're not close enough to ask about each other's businesses. So why should I tell you?"

Hearing this, Jia Lin felt irritation crawl all over his body. He scoffs a sarcastic laugh and sneers at one side of his mouth.

"That attitude of yours will get you killed here. Don't be reckless. Once you shoot, every member of Red Moon will be at your neck in seconds."

Lin Hui made a long pause with one eyebrow arched. His silence was as if he was considering Jia Lin's words.

He was alone and standing in front of Red Moon. It was a reckless thing to do, and he would be outnumbered if the people inside the building came out.

However, both corners of his mouth curl up into a smile.

"Sorry to disappoint you, but Reckless is my middle name."

He moves the gun and aims at Liu Peng. Eyes locked with Jia Lin, he pulls the trigger.

* Bang-!

"Arrrrghhh-!!!"

The loud ringing of gunshot resonates throughout the sky, followed by Liu Peng's pierce-shrieking cry of pain. All the colors on his face turned white as veins formed on his forehead.

He rolls side to side on the ground with his left knee bent up. Both his hands grasped tightly onto his wound as blood spilled.

"Ahh!! You shot my leg! Ahh!!"

Jia Lin was in disbelief at what had happened. He stumbles a step back and stares down at Liu Peng.

He thought Lin Hui would heed his threatening words and leave. However, his words went in one word and out the other.

*click

Before his thoughts could travel further, a familiar click sounds next to his ear. He was quickly brought to his senses, and without turning his head, his eyes slowly looked at the source.

He could see a perfect view of the muzzle that was now aimed at his temple.

Sweat gradually forms on his forehead, and he swallows a gulp with difficulty.

"Y-you... you w-won't get away with this."

His fists clenched tightly at his sides, with his nails digging into his palm.

"You just alerted every member of Red Moon. They're all going to come out."

Just as his words fell, the sound of multiple footsteps came from behind. Relief washes inside him, and he sneers sinisterly at Lin Hui.

"See. What did I tell you?"

And it was just as he said.

Coming out of Red Moon were all the members. There was either a gun, a knife, or a baseball bat in their hands. Each person had a hostile expression like they had been woken up from a sound sleep.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Who dares to shoot in front of Red Moon?!"

Jia Lin's sneer widens as the street suddenly becomes crowded by the gang members. He ignores the gun aimed at his temple, and he laughs.

"You should have listened to me. Now you're going to die, kid."

Lin Hui's eyes never once left Jia Lin. He muted Liu Peng's cries and had an unfazed demeanor as the group surrounded him.

His eye blinks with a nonchalant expression as he listens to the bulky man. Once he heard enough of the man's words, the corners of his mouth arc upward.

He slightly reaches forward with his outstretched arm and the tip of the gun directly presses against Jia Lin's temple.

"But you'll die first."

Jia Lin stiffened in place. He felt the cold tip of the gun on his skin and a sweat van down his cheek.

Knowing that Lin Hui wouldn't hesitate to kill him, he could only pray inside that he would make it alive.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you point a gun at our brother?"

A member of Red Moon roars from the crowd when he sees Jia Lin at gunpoint. He raises his hand and aims his gun at Lin Hui.

All the men with guns did not waste any time following his steps and did the same.

If Lin Hui dares to shoot their brother, they will pull the trigger on him.

"Release our brother if you want to live!"

"This is Red Moon's territory. Make any careless move, and everyone here will shoot you."

Multiple voices resonated as an uproar rose. However, Lin Hui feign ignorance to each person's taunt Red Moon.

His eyes gradually move from the man in front of him to the direction everyone came.

"Tao Meng."

Just when the name escaped his mouth, the person appeared into view.

Tao Meng passed through the crowd with a big frown on his face. His subordinates made sure to step to the side and let him through. When he reaches the front, he glares at Lin Hui.

"How dare you show up at Red Moon and cause a ruckus."

In all the years that he had taken over Red Moon, there has been no gang besides Fate that would cause a scene in his territory.

HOW dare this unwelcomed guest show up here and point a gun at his men.

"You are outnumbered here. let my subordinate go, and I will consider sparing your life."

Lin Hui stares at Tao Meng with a long silence. His arm remained in place without a shred of care about the intimidating individuals around.

"Do you know this man?"

His question stupefied Tao Meng. He (Tao Meng) had just made it clear that Jia Lin was one of his men. Did Lin Hui not understand?

"Yes, that man is my people. Now, will you release him?"

Lin Hui chuckles a scoffs and then shakes his head before gesturing to Liu Peng.

"Not this man. Him."

Tao Meng's frown deepens, and his eyes glance down at the person on the ground.

Despite the man's disheveled appearance, he recognized the man right away.

He knew that Liu Peng was requesting to see him, but he didn't think the man would bring trouble to his territory.

Should he have just sent his men to kill Liu Peng since he is of no use anymore?

He looks away from Liu Peng and back at Lin Hui. He shrugs his shoulders with indifference and answers.

"And what if I do know him?"

"Then that would mean trouble."

Lin Hui answered without hesitation. He looks Tao Meng straight in the eye, and no fear can be seen in him.

However, in a split second, all the members of Red Moon rose into an uproar full of hysterical laughter.

No one took his words seriously.

"Hahaha! Did he just say we'll be in trouble?"

"Is think some prank? Does he even know where he is right now?"

"Hey kid, the only one in trouble is you. Hahaha."

Only Tao Meng and Jia Lin took Lin Hui's words seriously as the laughter continued.

Lin Hui was in silence despite all the mocking words. He didn't care about what they thought as he knew what would happen.

His shoulders tremble, and to everyone's surprise, he starts laughing and joins them.

When they heard him, everyone gradually ceased and stared at him with a mixture of alertness and confusion.

They thought he was going to cry, but why was he laughing?

Lin Hui's laugh continued for a long second before he quieted down. His eyes scan across the faces before him until he stops at Tao Meng.

He chuckles again and tilts his head to the side at the silent crowd.

"It's all so humorous until your fates are collected, hm?"
