Chapter 252: Chapter 252: What a Peculiar Ugly Name

"Jin who?" Shen Lu asked.

"Jin Dalang."

"What a uniquely ugly name."

Xue Can: "..."

’Is that really the point?’

Shen Lu said seriously, "I don’t know him. I’ve only met Mr. Sun and General Manager Chen from the Commerce Association. I think the Xiangmantian Chain Restaurant belongs to them."

"They’re so arrogant. When they couldn’t ruin me, they decided to just kidnap and teach me a lesson?" Shen Lu fumed. "If they’re so capable, why don’t they just fly to the heavens?"

Xue Can pondered for a moment. "That’s a possibility."

But he felt there had to be a deeper reason.

...

In the small Western-style house, Boss Jin had already learned of the failed kidnapping.

He angrily smashed another cup.

"Didn’t I hire three mercenaries? How could you still fail?!"

Jin San trembled with fear. "Everything was going smoothly at first. We even caught her. But who would have thought Xue Can would suddenly show up? He’s a Level 4 Superpower User, a higher level than any of us. We couldn’t beat him..."

"Useless!" Boss Jin glared, his brows furrowed. "You have the nerve to say that? I heard Xue Can joined the corps later than you, and now he’s a Level 4 Superpower User while you’re only a Second-level Superpower User! After getting kicked out of the corps, you didn’t even try to improve yourself. All you do is slack off and play cards every day. I ask you to do one little thing, and you can’t even do it right!"

Jin San was stunned by Boss Jin’s tirade and couldn’t snap out of it for a long moment.

Ever since he was kicked out of the Gale Mercenary Corps, he had faced repeated setbacks trying to join other corps. Left with no choice, he had come to find his big brother.

His brother had always been quite patient and pleasant with him. Jin San really thought Boss Jin was a good-tempered person.

Turns out it was all an act.

But he wasn’t the type to take abuse lying down, and he exploded on the spot.

"I’m useless? And you’re so much better? I gave you that crucial piece of information, but you were too scared to do this, too hesitant to do that. If you had just done what I said from the start and interrogated her after catching her, we’d be honored guests of the government by now! You’re the most useless one, timid as a mouse!"

"Jin San! Say one more word and see what happens!" Boss Jin, who was rarely defied, had a face as dark as water. He wished he could strangle this brainless little brother with his own hands.

"I’m done with this! Do whatever the hell you want!" Jin San flung his arm and stormed out, fuming.

Boss Jin wasn’t the only person with power and means. If it weren’t for the fact that they were brothers, Jin San would never have told him about that matter.

Now that they had fallen out, Jin San planned to find a new partner to cooperate with.

Someone decisive and ruthless. And most importantly, someone stronger than Xue Can.

But Boss Jin knew his brother all too well; he could tell what Jin San was up to with a single glance. He had a bodyguard who usually stayed hidden in the shadows, only appearing when Boss Jin was in danger.

At that moment, Boss Jin gave the bodyguard an order: stop Jin San.

Jin San was no match for the bodyguard and ended up with his arms twisted behind his back, completely subdued.

"Jin Dalang! Are you insane?!" Jin San shouted in a rage, using Boss Jin’s real name.

Boss Jin despised his own name, Jin Dalang. It sounded incredibly unlucky. Since becoming a boss, he hadn’t heard anyone call him that in a very long time.

"Lock him up," Boss Jin ordered coldly. "Don’t let him out without my command."

"Yes, sir."

Jin San was shoved into a dark room, cursing and swearing the whole time.

A servant came forward, cleaned up the broken shards on the floor, and brought a new cup of tea.

Boss Jin lit a cigarette in frustration. The chance to become a man above all others was right in front of him—he could see it, but he couldn’t grasp it. The feeling was agonizing.

No, it wasn’t that he couldn’t grasp it.
