Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Despair


    Liu Dahong followed Zhang Qiqi’s gaze towards Apartment 3202 and said,


    “3202? I remember this unit seems to be reserved for offsetting the construction expenses. The owner is the construction unit that built thisplex. I just don’t know if it has been rented outter?”


    Jiang Yan was actually a bit curious too.


    Was there someone living in 3202?


    In her recollection, she had never seen the residents of 3202.


    Apartment 3203 housed He Chunmei’s family, which she knew about.


    As for 3204, it seemed to be a loving young couple.


    She had bumped into them once when she first moved in and went downstairs to throw out the garbage.


    Beyond that, she didn’t know.


    After all, she had prepared herself to stay put in her own home for the long haul and wasn’t very interested in her neighbors.


    While they were talking, the property management staff had already gone up and started pounding on the door forcefully, “Is anyone there?!”


    The steel door didn’t budge, but the dust on the door frame silted down.


    “If there’s someone inside,e open the door quickly. If you don’t open it, I’m going to break in!”


    “Bang, bang, bang!” While the property staff was speaking, they swapped for a sledgehammer to smash the door lock.


    “Creak—”


    Next door in 3203, He Chunmei pushed open her door and peered out, wearing a look of schadenfreude as she said:


    “Wow, what’s blowing the wind today, bringing Manager Liu and the boys up to the 32nd floor? Wow! Such a spectacle, such momentum, isn’t that a bit too fierce?”


    After that, she didn’t forget to viciously side-eye Zhang Qiqi.


    She hadn’t noticed Liu Dahong and the othersing up earlier.


    It wasn’t until Liu Rui went to check the power and let out that high-voltage scream that she and Zhou Guangfu realized what was happening.


    However, seeing Zhang Qiqi, Zhang Qiming, and Liu Dahong with a bunch of menacing people, she thought they had finallye to seek revenge on Apartment 3201.


    She hid behind the door’s peephole and watched for a while, feeling it necessary to join in the posse against Apartment 3201.


    After all, everyone knew that Liu Dahong now had manpower and resources, and she wanted to use the opportunity to curry favor.


    So, without a second thought, she opened the door.


    Her husband, Zhou Guangfu, couldn’t hold her back.


    Liu Dahong paid no attention to her sycophantic praise but gave her a cold re and said indifferently: “He Chunmei, since you’ve alreadye out, don’t go back in.”


    He Chunmei’s heart sank, “Manager Liu, what, what do you mean?”


    Before her wordspletely fell, Pot Lid Head and two other property staff had already stepped forward and ripped her door open.


    He Chunmei lost her bnce and got dragged out.


    Inside, Zhou Guangfu, who had been eavesdropping at the entrance, was startled, “Brother Liu, what are you doing?”


    Next to them, Zhang Qiqi looked at him with a coquettish smile, “Brother Guangfu, of course, it’s your ce that our Brother Liu has taken a liking to. Hahaha!”


    “Zhang Qiqi! You shameless vixen!!!”


    Seeing her making eyes at her husband, and recalling her betrayal in front of Jiang Yan, He Chunmei’s rage erupted, and she raised her palm to p Zhang Qiqi’s face violently,pletely missing thetter half of her statement.


    Zhang Qiqi agilely dodged her p, loudly jeering:


    “Sister Chunmei, I’ll take that as apliment! After all, since ancient times, no ugly woman or old woman has ever been called a fox spirit! Like you, no one would ever call you that in their lifetime because you just don’t fit the bill!!!!! Hahahahaha!”


    “You! If I don’t rip your mouth to shreds today, my name isn’t He!” Upon hearing this, He Chunmei, with eyes zing with unrestrained fury, charged towards Zhang Qiqi.


    Zhang Qiming and another property staff member immediately reached out and blocked her.


    Inside, Zhou Guangfu was moreposed than He Chunmei.


    He suddenly realized something was amiss from Zhang Qiqi’s words and the ill-intentions in everyone’s eyes. He frowned, turned, and ran towards the kitchen to grab a cleaver.


    He hadn’t expected Pot Lid Head, who stood at the door, to be one step ahead, wielding a blood-stained sledgehammer that smashed down on the back of his head.


    “Thud!”


    @@novelbin@@


    “Crack!”


    “Daddy!”


    “Daddy—”


    On the sofa inside the apartment, two children who had been sitting “whooshed” to their feet and screamed heart-wrenchingly as they rushed out.


    He Chunmei turned around at the sound and saw Zhou Guangfu lying in a pool of blood, unrecognizable. Her pupils contracted, her legs gave out, and her shrill voice was full of despair:


    “Husband!!”


    “How can you be so cruel andwless?! I’m going to fight you with everything I’ve got!!!” He Chunmei, her eyes bloodshot with rage, iled her arms and charged at Pot Lid Head.


    Little did she know, the unarmed her was no match for them.


    “Thud!”


    A hammer blow aimed directly at her forehead.


    Zhang Qiqi looked at He Chunmei falling and couldn’t help but smirk with a mocking, coldugh:


    “What’s the point of saying that at this time? Our Brother Liu is thew, he is the sky!”


    “Mommy!”


    “Thud!”


    “…”


    Less than a minuteter, the entrance of Apartment 3203 was drenched in blood.


    The bodies of the family of four, as usual, were mercilessly thrown out the window by them.


    The thick scent of blood soon permeated the entire floor’s corridor.


    The white ceramic-tiled floor was also streaked with curving, intermittent red lines and falling blossoms.


    Those lower-floor residents who hade up to seek revenge on Jiang Yan were now several of them scared to the point of wetting themselves.


    But they didn’t dare turn and leave.


    Fearing to offend Liu Dahong and his entourage, they couldn’t afford the consequences.


    Gao Dazhuang looked at Pot Lid Head with a somewhat displeased expression and said, “Actually, it would have been sufficient to make them move down to Apartment 2003. There was no need to kill them right away.”


    After all, there were two children involved.


    He was a parent himself.


    Despite his usual harshness, he could never bring himself to harm children.


    But Pot Lid Head, without blinking an eye, had wiped them out entirely.


    Utterly inhumane, reaching the depths of immorality.


    He thought of himself as a man of resolute action, but today he realized he was nothing.


    So, Zhang Qiqi and Pot Lid Head, these two, had to be watched out for in the future.


    “Brother Dazhuang, it’s the apocalypse already, might makes right, why are you suddenly so merciful like a saint? If a problem can be solved neatly in a minute, why bother bickering with them for half a day?!” Pot Lid Head, now with bloodshot eyes, spoke dismissively.


    Gao Dazhuang furrowed his brow and took a deep breath, not responding to his words.


    On the other side, they had already smashed open the door of Apartment 3202.


    The door creaked open, releasing a strong, musty smell.


    Everyone looked inside and were stunned.


    There was no one inside, nor was it habitable.


    A leaking roof had raised the wallpaper and the living room’s floorboards.


    Cracks mottled the ce, and the musty odor was strong.


    But it was still good it was the top floor.


    The bathrooms in the middle and lower floors had already started to backflow sewage.


    “Holy shit! This is supposed to be the offsetting unit given to the construction unit! Just look at this! Damn, the developers are really heartless!” Someone cursed angrily.


    Liu Dahong nced around inside and said, “Alright, enough talk, let’s get down to business.”


    Liu Rui stepped forward to direct:


    “This wall is load-bearing, so when you break it down, try to do it in a smaller area, forming a passage just big enough for one person to get through.”
