Chapter 65: At Death’s Door
Commander Hu’s face was clouded with displeasure as he looked at Su Yang with a cold gaze, "I have always been reasonable in my actions; there is no such thing as protection for the sake of protection, but rather acting according to reason. Su Yang, you are young and promising, with limitless prospects ahead of you. Is it necessary to risk everything over such a trivial matter?"
With a cold laugh, Su Yang replied, "Commander Hu, as a person of status, is it necessary for you to risk everything over such a trivial matter?"
This statement caused an uproar among the crowd. This was Commander Hu, and yet, Su Yang dared to threaten him like this. Was he tired of living?
"Commander Hu, Su Yang didn’t mean that..." Hou Shilin hastily tried to explain.
But Commander Hu had already slammed his hand on the table and rose, shouting angrily, "A mere jumping clown, you dare threaten me!"
"Heh..." Su Yang chuckled coldly, "Commander Hu, I know why you are protecting the Li Family, because Li Weixian has helped you control your chronic illness, making you suffer less."
"In gratitude to Li Weixian, you have specially come to back him up this time. Moreover, you protect Li Weixian even though you know that he has set me up. To put it bluntly, you are just protecting yourself!"
Without changing his expression, Commander Hu said coldly, "Even if I am protecting him, what can you do about it?"
"Commander Hu is truly unreasonable and domineering!" Su Yang scoffed again.
Commander Hu angrily retorted, "Kid, I’m holding my temper now. Ten years ago, I would have killed you on the spot!"
"Unfortunately, it’s not ten years ago..." Su Yang said with a light laugh, "And, Commander Hu, your health probably won’t last much longer."
