Extraordinary Soldier King in the City

Chapter 1717: A Man’s Responsibility

"What do you mean?"

Zhong Siquan’s face darkened, his eyes nearly spitting fire.

"You’re nothing but scum, and Chen Feng is a good man who can provide a sense of security in a crisis. How can you compare yourself to Chen Feng, huh?"

Tang Yuxin mocked.

"You..."

Zhong Siquan was about to explode.

"Don’t give me all that ’you this, me that’ nonsense. I’m stating facts!"

Tang Yuxin rolled her eyes at Zhong Siquan and continued, "Let’s put other things aside and just talk about a man’s responsibility. Compared to Chen Feng, you’re worlds apart. It’s like you’re on the ground and he’s in the sky. Although I haven’t gone through much with Chen Feng, take what happened the first day we met, for example. When that fierce beast charged at Yaoyao, you chose to run away, but Chen Feng chose to step up and rescue her. Just from that, Chen Feng outshines you in terms of responsibility by a mile!"

"Hmph, that’s because Chen Feng has the ability. That’s why he dared to fight the fierce beast. I know I don’t have the strength, so how could I go save Lin Mengyao? If I did, not only would I fail to save her, but I’d also get myself killed. I acted with reason. What do you know?"

Zhong Siquan snorted, thick-skinned.

"Fine, you acted with reason in that situation. But what about the day before yesterday on the cliff?"

Tang Yuxin sneered.

"What about the cliff?"

Zhong Siquan asked in confusion.

"Even if we go by your account that Yaoyao wasn’t pushed by you, at the moment she fell off the cliff, what did you do, and what did Chen Feng do? Chen Feng was willing to jump off the cliff to save Yaoyao. That’s a man’s responsibility. Do you have it?"

Tang Yuxin asked contemptuously.

"That was reckless. Jumping meant certain death. Why should I jump?"

Zhong Siquan stubbornly replied.

"Heh, that’s why I say you’re nowhere near Chen Feng. He’s a real man—any girl would fall for him because he makes them feel safe and secure. And you? You only rely on slick talk and excuses, never daring to take responsibility like a real man. So, on what grounds do you compare yourself to Chen Feng? Are you even worthy?"

Tang Yuxin coldly laughed, disdainfully.

"Tang Yuxin, that’s enough!"

Zhong Siquan glared fiercely at Tang Yuxin and shouted angrily, "In your eyes, am I really that worthless? Just for Chen Feng, someone you’ve only known for a few days, you belittle me like this?"

"It’s not that I belittle you, but when you’re in front of Chen Feng, you indeed seem worthless. Don’t tell me about your wealth or your family; it all seems ridiculous to me."

"Do you think Yaoyao and I would care about those things when looking for a boyfriend? We both want someone who can protect us, truly love us, and take responsibility. And that’s Chen Feng. As for you, without your rich second-generation status, who are you really?"

Tang Yuxin said disdainfully.

"I see. So you’re saying that you and Lin Mengyao both like Chen Feng and would rather die than choose me, right?"

Zhong Siquan’s face turned gloomy as he asked coldly.

"That’s right. Yaoyao and I made the same choice. Even if it means dying, we would never choose you. Our hearts already belong to Chen Feng."

Tang Yuxin nodded firmly.

"Ah!!!!"

Zhong Siquan roared in anger on the spot.

"Boss, what’s wrong?"

Li Dagang, who was standing guard outside the tent, heard the commotion and quickly entered, asking with concern.

"I’m fine. Leave now. From this moment on, no one is to enter my tent without my permission, including you!"

Zhong Siquan said with a livid face.

"Huh?"

Li Dagang was stunned for a moment. Seeing Zhong Siquan’s murderous gaze, he dared not ask further, nodded, and quickly retreated.

After Li Dagang left,

Zhong Siquan turned to look at Tang Yuxin, his eyes gleaming with a sinister light, and said coldly, "Tang Yuxin, you’ve pushed me. Remember, you’ve forced me!"

"Zhong Siquan, what do you intend to do?"

Tang Yuxin’s face changed as she asked coldly.

"What do I intend to do? Haha!"

Zhong Siquan laughed coldly, looking at Tang Yuxin with a twisted expression, and said, "I wanted to have a proper talk. If you were willing to be my girlfriend, I would treat you well, with good food and drinks. But you’re so obstinate and have humiliated me. I can’t stand it anymore. Today, I’ll have you, even if I have to force you to be my girlfriend!"

"Zhong Siquan, you dare? If you touch me, I’ll bite my tongue and kill myself. You’ll end up with just a corpse!"

Tang Yuxin said with a furious face.

"A corpse? That’s fine. If you have the heart for it, go ahead and bite your tongue then!"

Zhong Siquan sinisterly smiled and then got up to approach Tang Yuxin.

"Don’t come near!"

Tang Yuxin’s face changed, glaring at Zhong Siquan with a tough exterior but trembling inside, "Zhong Siquan, if you dare touch me, I’ll have my dad destroy your Zhong Family!"

"Oh, oh, oh, Tang Yuxin, I know the Tang Family behind you is no joke, but can you do anything you say now? Don’t forget, we’re on an isolated island. We can’t get out, and the outside world can’t reach us. After we’ve sealed the deal here and return to Coastal, even if your dad is unwilling, he will have to accept me as his son-in-law. The prestigious Tang Family wouldn’t want the scandal of their little princess being pregnant out of wedlock, right? Hahaha!"

Zhong Siquan laughed heartily with arrogance.

"You... Zhong Siquan, you’re utterly shameless scum!"

Tang Yuxin’s body trembled with anger.

"Call me whatever you want, but today, whether you agree or not, there’s no one to save you!"

Zhong Siquan said haughtily.

Then he directly reached out to untie the ropes on Tang Yuxin’s hands and feet.

"Bastard, don’t touch me! If you dare touch me, I’ll kill you!"

Tang Yuxin struggled violently and shouted in rage.

"Kill me? Let’s see if you have the capability!"

Zhong Siquan sneered, ripping off Tang Yuxin’s ropes, and proceeded to reach for her clothes.

Just then,

Li Dagang’s panicked voice suddenly came from outside the tent.

"Bo... Boss, something bad happened!"

Li Dagang then rushed into the tent in a flurry...
