A Sweet Night: The CEO Loves His Wife Ardently novel Chapter 136

Inside an underground building on the outskirts of Peace City.

The headquarter of Tiger Gang was set up here.

In the large hall, Steven Lane, the leader of Tiger Gang, was sitting there dressed in casual clothes. The black tattoo of a tiger head on his chest was revealed through his low V-neckline. His expression was as gloomy as the tiger face on his chest. The long scar at the corner of his eyes made him look even more terrifying.

In front of him knelt a man named Paul. Paul did not dare to raise his head. He shuddered as he could feel the ferocious gaze.

"Trash, you're good-for-nothing!" Steven said it ferociously as he kicked Paul on his temple. Paul was knocked to the ground, and with a dull sound, his head was heavily smashed to the ground.

Blood flowed out of Paul's nostrils.

Paul was dazed, but he managed to get up and kneel in front of Steven.

"Mr. Steven, Mr. Steven, it was not my fault. Lance just disappeared. He's like a turtle, hiding in his shell. No matter how hard we tried to look for him, we couldn't find him, or he would have been dead!"

"Not your fault? Peace City is our territory. Even if he hides, he's still in the city."

Paul didn't know what to say.

For the past few days, he had found nothing about Lance. No wonder Steven would get angry.

Paul asked suspiciously, "Mr. Steven, what if he has returned to Pine City?"

"Impossible!"

"How can you be so sure?"

Steven coldly looked at him and said, "I have a mole around him."

Paul frowned.

No wonder Steven quickly found Lance when Lance just arrived in Peace City. It turned out that there was a mole. However, Paul couldn't understand why the mole hadn't contacted them for so many days while they were searching all over the city.

However, since Steven was angry, Paul didn't dare to ask this question, lest Steven would vent his anger on him.

"Mr. Steven, I will continue to search right now. I'll strengthen the search ability and find him."

"Then why are you still here? Go!"

"Yes, sir!" Paul struggled to get up and staggered out of the door.

However, before Paul could reach the door, someone showed up with a gun pressed against Paul's head, forcing him to raise his hands and slowly retreat.

Seeing that Paul coming back, Steven scolded unhappily, "Aren't you going to look for Lance? Why..."

Steven saw Raye, a trusted subordinate of Lance, pointing his gun at Paul, forcing him to retreat into the hall.

Seeing this, the gang members in the hall all took out their guns and aimed at Raye.

Steven looked at Raye vigilantly.

Raye had always been with Lance. If Raye was here, then Lance would also...

Then Steven saw Lance in a white shirt and suit trousers showing up behind Raye.

Lance didn't look haggard at all from being chased down around the city. He was refreshed and had a wicked smile on his face as usual.

Steven sneered secretly.

Lance was very bold that he broke into his territory just like this.

He must be here to seek his doom.

Steven looked at Lance mockingly with a smug smile, as if Lance was a sitting duck to him.

"Hey, look who's here! Mr. Bryson, what brings you here?"

Steven looked at Lance with hatred.

The scar at the corner of his eyes was caused by Lance in a fight. He kept this grudge and had been waiting to settle it with Lance one day. Now he had finally seized such a good opportunity.

Lance smiled and walked out.

Steven grabbed the snatcher of his pistol strapped on his waist. He was about to take it out to shoot Lance when Lance suddenly pressed something on his body.

Suddenly, the underground building began to shake. Everyone looked around in panic.

Steven looked at his subordinates, frowning.

"What happened? What was that?"

"I don't know."

"Go and see what was going on."

Lance smiled and took out something that looked like a remote control.

"No need. I came all the way here to bring you the gift. Oh, the direction of the explosion just now was wrong!"

Lance said as he pressed another button.

Then another rumble came from behind the hall. The ground trembled violently, and all the Tiger Gang members present were panicked.

Steven twitched his mouth in shock as he looked at Lance angrily and said, "You brought gunpowder?"

"I hope you enjoy it. But, this is just a dessert before the feast. I have prepared you a lot more," Lance smiled evilly and said, threatening.

Steven sneered and stared at Lance with hostility.

"Lance, don't be alarmist. This is Tiger Gang, not the place for you to joke around. This is my place. How much gunpowder could you place here? I don't buy it. Arrest him!"

Steven had wanted to shoot Lance to death, but because of Lance's threat, he changed his mind. Steven now wanted to torture Lance to death to vent his hatred.

Lance shook his head. Looking at the people approaching him, he pressed another button.

With an explosion, a hole suddenly appeared on the dome of the hall. The rubble fell to the ground, and several people were hit right on the head and began to bleed.

Seeing the horrified expressions on the gangers' faces, Lance gently stroked his hair at his temple.

"I told you I've prepared a big gift for you, but you guys didn't believe me. Do you believe me now?"

Even Steven was shocked.

How came... how came Lance had succeeded to place a bomb on the roof of the hall without being noticed?

Unless...

Lance smiled smugly at Steven.

"Looks like you've already figured it out!" Lance narrowed his eyes and said, "Come out!"
