<strong>Chapter 711: Chapter 0713: Oblivious to Life and Death</strong>


    Men don’t see the advantages of other men.


    The strong man clicked his tongue and said, “I don’t think this Chu Ge is that great either. Why do you women like him so much?”


    He muttered to himself.


    His voice wasn’t loud, but Mu Bingtong heard it clearly.


    She nced sideways at the strong man and curiously asked, “Us women?”


    The strong man nodded, pointing to Nangong Man Sha at the entrance, “Look, you see that woman? The darling of the Six Major Families of Capital City, the Nangong Family’s jewel in the crown, Nangong Man Sha, the most sought-after socialite in Capital City. So many men can’t even catch her eye, yet ever since Chu Ge came to Capital City, he’s been seen dining with Nangong Man Sha quite often. You should know that dining with Miss Man Sha is a feat harder than reaching Heaven.”


    Speaking with excitement, the strong man’s words were filled with jealousy towards Chu Ge, but he failed to notice the darkening expression on Mu Bingtong’s face nearby.


    So, there were such outstanding women pursuing Chu Ge.


    Mu Bingtong would be lying if she said it didn’t bother her. Right now, her heart felt like it had been pricked by a needle, leaking out sourness continuously.


    She hadn’t paid much attention to the girls around Chu Ge until now. After the strong man’s words, she turned her gaze to Nangong Man Sha.


    She had to admit, this girl was indeed outstanding. At this moment, Nangong Man Sha was gazing at Chu Ge with affection, the emotions in her eyes undeniable.


    Mu Bingtong curled her lips, suddenly feeling thating to Capital City was a mistake.


    At this moment, Chu Ge had finished speaking, and the time hade for the ribbon-cutting.


    Mu Bingtong watched him quietly, her eyes filled with sorrow.


    Suddenly, someone from behind bumped into her unexpectedly. Mu Bingtong turned to look and saw a young man holding a knife, silently making his way forward.


    Mu Bingtong’s heart skipped a beat. She didn’t dare to breathe too loudly as she saw that not only one person was armed with a weapon; around her, four or five people with an intimidating appearance were all carrying knives and clubs.


    Mu Bingtong anxiously watched Chu Ge speaking. She realized that these men were targeting Chu Ge’s store, intending to cause trouble at his opening ceremony.


    But there were too many people around; she couldn’t rashly shout out a warning to Chu Ge. She had to think of a way.


    Those people, all eagerly watching in Chu Ge’s direction, hadn’t noticed yet that troublemakers had infiltrated their midst.


    Mu Bingtong could only watch helplessly, fretting internally.


    Those were the men sent by Lin Zhao, who at that moment was also in the crowd. Due to time spent in prison, his face looked much more haggard, a stubble around his mouth.


    Lin Zhao watched Chu Ge with eyes brimming with hatred. It was all because of Chu Ge that he had ended up in prison. If he hadn’t gone to prison, his father wouldn’t have had to plead with everyone, and he wouldn’t have offended powerful people, leading to their framing and death!


    Lin Zhao had long been burdening Chu Ge with all his grudges. He hade to hate Chu Gepletely.


    Knowing that Chu Ge’s gambling stone field was opening today, he had specially called up a bunch of his brothers. These brothers were different from the ones who hadest time to collect protection money; they were all brawlers hired for a high price, each with a history of crimes, fearless of any consequences.


    Just waiting for the right moment and they will rush up to create chaos for Chu Ge!


    Lin Zhao has it all figured out; he will take advantage of the chaos to confront Chu Ge directly!


    After Chu Ge finishes speaking, the next step is the ribbon-cutting ceremony. It’s a simple ritual to bepleted by him, Nangong Man Sha, and Jian Chunqiu together.


    During the ribbon-cutting, a wave of excitement sweeps through the crowd. Of course, Chu Ge knows all too well that the cheers and apuse are not for him, but for Nangong Man Sha.


    After the ribbon-cutting, it is time for the ceremonial fireworks, and Chu Ge, as the behind-the-scenes boss, needs to set off the first firework himself.


    And Lin Zhao has chosen this moment for action.


    At this time, although Mu Bingtong doesn’t know when these people will make their move, her heart races when she sees Chu Ge walking down from the entrance.


    She wants to step forward, but because they are making way for Chu Ge, they are forced to step back a few paces instead, and she can only watch helplessly as Chu Ge approaches closer to the fireworks.


    As Chu Ge walks down from the entrance, he senses the unusual nces cast towards him, filled with scorn, envy, and even a few indifferent, show-watching expressions.


    These gazes, to Chu Ge, seem inconsequential; however, among them are a few dangerous res that make him feel like something is about to happen.


    But there are too many people on the scene and Chu Ge doesn’t have the time to seek out the source of those few dangerous nces.


    Chu Ge believes that these dangerous looks arise from misunderstandings about his rtionship with Nangong Man Sha, so he doesn’t take them to heart.


    A small path opens up in the crowd, and Lin Zhao stands beside it, his knife hidden in his sleeve. The crowd is toorge and jumbled for anyone to notice.


    Had it not been for Lin Zhao identally bumping into Mu Bingtong when he arrived, she would not have be aware of these developments.


    In the midst of the crowd, Mu Bingtong’s gaze is fixed tightly on Lin Zhao and Chu Ge, fearing that Lin Zhao might harm Chu Ge.


    Everything is unfolding just as Lin Zhao anticipated. Watching Chu Ge move towards the artillery, his hands involuntarily tighten, not able to conceal the fierce excitement in his eyes. Today, he’s determined to make Chu Ge pay.


    When the first firework goes off, Lin Zhao almost leaps towards Chu Ge in one bound.


    At the same time, the other ruffians scattered in the crowd also pick up their weapons and shout loudly, “Charge in and smash it for me!”


    Most of the people present are men, but there are also quite a few women. Seeing this, they are already terrified. There are also men who are cowards; because of the actions of these people, the scene suddenly bes chaotic.


    Mu Bingtong is extremely nervous; the crowd starts jostling, and she can no longer see clearly whether Chu Ge is okay or not – even his figure has disappeared in the crowd.


    Mu Bingtong really wants to go forward, but no sooner does she take a few steps than her arm is caught by the courteous man who had saved her earlier, “Miss, it’s dangerous ahead; we better run.”


    With that, he pulls Mu Bingtong aside without further discussion.


    The crowd surges, and the scene is extremely chaotic.


    Only Jian Chunqiu and a few people, including Nangong Man Sha, who stand at the entrance, look very calm.


    “These people really don’t know whether they are dead or alive to cause trouble at such an event!”
