Guangshi.

Inside the opulent private room, men and women who appeared to be bosses sat on round sofas, occasionally standing up to report on the progress of events to the short man sitting opposite them.

Zhu Gui flipped through the data and analysis reports in his hand, his expression indifferent, showing no joy or happiness. It was precisely this indifference that made everyone's hearts pound with anxiety.

During this period, they used every means, money, and connection to suppress and block the companies under the clan, even stirring up the stock market and extending their reach to other provinces and cities. They suffered considerable losses, but they also saw initial results.

Many of the shopping malls and shops under the Fu family's control began to experience zero sales and closures. Most of the Fu family's partners also began to withdraw their investments, terminate contracts, and cut off supplies. As far as they know, some old customers have also terminated their contracts. Of course, this is not just something they are doing. The Huashi Chamber of Commerce has played a significant role in this. They contacted chambers of commerce in various places to collectively suppress the Fu family.

When the Fu family came to their door, they avoided them, preferring to stay out of sight and avoid trouble.

At first, Fu would try to persuade them through connections, but later, Zhu Gui did something, and before long, even the people trying to mediate disappeared.

They went from being wary and hesitant at the beginning to becoming unscrupulous later on.

Zhu Gui said that as long as the Fu family declares bankruptcy, all their losses will be returned double.

"So far, things are going well." Zhu Gui was fairly satisfied with the recent business data of the Fu family. "Shenzhen, Nansheng, and Xisheng are the provinces and cities where the Fu family has developed well. The concentrated crackdown has been quite successful. We can't feed those local bullies too much, lest they become too greedy and unable to work. We haven't withdrawn yet, so we need to intensify our efforts. There are also the Southwest, Nanshan, Fudong, and Bazhou areas, where the results are not very good. You all need to work harder. We only have six months. Any longer and we'll run into trouble. Everyone here has a family. If things are too slow, the life of having a wife and children and a warm bed will be gone. Wouldn't that make me, Zhu, look like I haven't led the way well? Hmm, I'll feel guilty."

Zhu Gui's narrow eyes swept over every face, his sinister gaze undisguised, his threat palpable.

Whether Zhu Gui can advance further at Huazhong Normal University depends on these idiots. If they mess things up for him, he won't mind sending all the women in his family to his territory to drink and sing.

After the party ended, everyone left the hotel and dispersed quickly.

“Brother Su, that little bastard Zhu Gui is too ruthless. He’s willing to do anything. If we really do what he says, we’ll be in jail sooner or later. This little bastard only cares about achieving his goal and doesn’t care how we clean up the mess afterward. The Fu family used to be such a powerful family. I thought even a fallen camel is bigger than a horse, and we would definitely have a fierce business battle with them. But now it seems I overestimated them.” Qian Sijiu and Su Chang have been friends for many years. They came from the same village and got along well. When the city first opened up in the early years, they came to Guangzhou. With mutual support and their determination to return home in glory, they both developed their own businesses and have now amassed considerable wealth, living a happy life together.

But then the Huashi Chamber of Commerce suddenly went crazy and tried to bankrupt the Fu family. Since they were under the Huashi umbrella, they were forced to get involved. What was infuriating was that this gangster, who had risen from the underworld, was ordering them around. Last time, he even killed someone in front of them. Whether it was the fear of his methods or the resentment from being coerced, he couldn't eat or sleep properly.

They were all self-made businessmen, and although they had connections in both the legitimate and criminal worlds, they were nothing compared to Zhu Gui, who was ruthless and rose to power through the underworld.

The people who were killed on the spot last time were cremated the next day. Their families didn't dare to utter a word, sold off their assets, and disappeared without a trace. But Zhu Gui got away scot-free and is still as arrogant as ever.

"Let's wait and see." Su Hao remained silent for a few seconds before speaking.

Among this group, their assets were the least, and they were the least favored. Therefore, every time they made a move, it was only a small-scale, insignificant action. Zhu Gui, being an outsider in the business world, couldn't understand the financial statements even when given to him. He was just going through the motions for now, but perhaps there would be a turning point later.

"Wait for what? How do we wait?" Qian Sijiu didn't understand what this meant.

At the hotel entrance, Zhu Gui watched Su Zan's car drive away, his eyes blazing with murderous intent.

Spitting out the toothpick, Zhu Gui sneered, "Go, kill them." Two lazy idiots, so self-righteous, thinking that he, Zhu Gui, had been a fraud all these years.

Since they dared to outwardly comply with him but inwardly defy him, they should be prepared to die. He wouldn't mind sending them on their way.

"Brother Zhu, why don't we bring all the women from their families over first? Otherwise, like the previous families, they all ran away, and we got nothing." The bald man with the long face smiled wickedly, his face full of lust.

They knew those two old men. They started out in the department store business and now own several large supermarkets. They were known for loving their family, wife, and children, and they didn't usually hang out with people in the industry, so they were looked down upon by many.

But he had the good fortune to meet their wives; they were really beautiful, hehe.

Finally, it was their turn. The thought of bringing those two hot women over and doing whatever he wanted made Baldy Scar's heart flutter with excitement.

"Kill them first, the rest are up to you." Zhu Gui wiped his hands with a handkerchief, threw it on the ground, and turned to go back to the hotel.

With the eldest brother's approval, the bald man with the scarred face grinned lewdly, "Third brother, fourth brother, you two each take three and come with me. Tonight, we'll all go to the bridal chamber together!"

"Thank you, Scarface. You're so kind!"

"Following Scarface means you'll have food to eat! Scarface is awesome!"

"Hahahaha... Follow me, work hard, and you'll live the high life. Whatever I have, you'll have plenty of..."

Scarface and his men got into two unlicensed vans and sped off.

The red light is on.

The black Mercedes stopped. Su Zan clutched his chest, feeling unwell. His right eyelid twitched violently, and he had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.

"Brother Su, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Qian Sijiu quickly noticed that Su Zan was acting strangely.

Su Zan didn't reply, but turned to look out the back window.

Just then, a car turning right turned on its high beams, shining them on the front of a van that was only one car's distance away from them. In the passenger seat, the ugly, pockmarked bald man was looking in their direction with excitement and a twisted smile.

Clearly, they're targeting them.

Su Zan shuddered violently and said to the driver, his face pale, "Xiao Lu, turn left ahead to the police station."

As soon as he finished speaking, the red light turned green, and the car started again. Xiao Lu didn't say anything, but continued driving towards home.

"Brother Su, what's going on?" Qian Sijiu asked in a terrified voice. "Xiao Lu, Brother Su is talking to you, can't you hear me? Huh? Hurry up, turn left! It's okay to go the wrong way!! Hurry up!!"

The driver never turned around, but in the rearview mirror, a hint of ruthlessness appeared on his handsome face, which Su Zan saw clearly.

Suddenly, Xiao Lu turned his head and met Su Zan's gaze in the rearview mirror. "I'm sorry, boss. I'm just an ordinary person. I can't afford to gamble, and I don't dare to gamble."

"What? Xiao Lu!! What do you want to do? Huh? You bastard!! You little bastard! Stop the car! Stop the car!!" Qian Sijiu also noticed the van following behind. It was obvious what they wanted to do.

That bastard Zhu Gui, we've discovered they're two-faced!

No...no...he doesn't want to die...he doesn't want to die...

Stop! Stop! Only by stopping the car and blocking the road, and with traffic police coming and cameras watching, will they absolutely not dare to do anything! They all live in suburban villas, which they bought for peace and quiet, but now, the advantage of fewer people in suburban villas has become a disadvantage!

If they go home, not only will they themselves face certain death, but their wives and children will inevitably suffer the same fate! Perhaps even…

I dare not think about it anymore, it's driving me crazy...

Unable to suppress his thoughts, Qian Sijiu lunged at Xiao Lu like a madman. A car accident could save their lives! A car accident would bring the police! He didn't care anymore! He was going to gamble; they had to get back alive! They had to survive today! As long as they could get through this, they would go home and immediately take their families and run away. Once they were safe, they would come back to deal with their assets.

Just in case, Xiao Lu floored the accelerator to prevent the people behind from acting recklessly. At that speed, no matter what they hit, the chances of the people in the back seat dying were too high if an accident occurred.

Who knew they would actually dare!
