"Very good." Ye Xingchen nodded approvingly: "A weak person should hide their weakness, show their teeth, and make those who get close to them feel threatened."
"This is the way to survive in this world. Tonight I will go to Qilian Manor, destroy the Shengshi Chamber of Commerce, and kill Huang San and his son."
"I want to go with you. I want to kill Huang Shih-hao with my own hands." Liu Qingwan bit her lip.
“Okay, I’ll break his limbs and throw him in front of you so you can kill him yourself,” Ye Xingchen said.
Liu Qingwan nodded slowly, her gaze resolute. Since fate had brought this to be, and since she could not change what had already happened, she was determined.
Then let yourself become a madman. In this world, kind and weak people will only be bullied forever. Only when a madman is covered in sharp thorns will others dare not approach you.
Gu Manyun is particularly busy today; she needs to prepare for all the contingency plans for tonight.
After tonight, the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce will cease to exist. She will use all her strength to seize the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce's territory.
In the evening, she drove to a pavilion in the suburbs. Ye Xingchen sat inside the pavilion, with a tea table in front of him.
She parked her car in front of the pavilion, then went up the steps and sat down opposite Ye Xingchen.
Still dressed in leather, his explosive physique exudes an untamed wildness.
She picked up the cup of tea that Ye Xingchen had just drunk from and drank it down in one gulp, completely disregarding the fact that Xingchen had just drunk from it.
"Ready?" Ye Xingchen asked.
He had just drunk that tea. Did this woman want to kiss him?
"We've made every effort to plan this. Once Qilian Manor is breached, my men will seize the Shengshi Chamber of Commerce's key stronghold immediately," Gu Manyun said. "This is the maximum manpower I can mobilize."
“That’s enough,” Ye Xingchen said. “Once the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce is destroyed, it’s like cutting off one of the Liang family’s arms, which will put them in a much more passive position.”
“But in doing so, he will take the initiative to win over the Cheng family of Hedong,” Gu Manyun said. “After all, the Liang family has some shady businesses and dirty work that someone has to do.”
"Then let's wipe out the Cheng family as well," Ye Xingchen said with a slight smile.
“If you do this, you’ll throw Jinling off balance.” Gu Manyun glanced at Ye Xingchen. “The people above won’t stand idly by.”
"You don't need to worry about that. Since I dared to do this, it means that the higher-ups have tacitly approved it." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly.
"Who exactly are you?" Gu Manyun had no idea.
“You don’t know me well enough yet. Once we get to know each other better, you will,” Ye Xingchen said.
"I suspect you're driving, but I have no proof." Gu Manyun rolled her eyes at Ye Xingchen and put down her cup. "When do you plan to make your move?"
"At midnight," Ye Xingchen uttered two words: "I promised to give them, father and son, three days, and that time must be no more or less. As soon as midnight arrives, I will rush into Qilian Manor ahead."
Gu Manyun nodded, glancing at the time: "One more hour."
Inside Qilian Mountain Villa, Huang San was already in a state of rage.
My son's arm can't be reattached. He's currently lying in the hospital, waiting for the wound to heal.
He waited anxiously for news at Qilian Mountain Villa.
Xu Er was also helpless. He mobilized all his resources to investigate Ye Xingchen's background, but so far he has found nothing.
He even used his connections within the bureau to check Ye Xingchen's household registration, but what was shown on the household registration was only superficial; no matter how many connections he used, he had no access to the real files.
"Third Uncle..." Xu Er said, "I have used all my connections to investigate, but the results may not be so quick because Ye Xingchen's file is very special, and our bureau's connections do not have the authority to investigate it."
“That’s a big problem.” Huang San suddenly stopped in his tracks, his pupils contracted, and his eyes flashed with a sharp light.
"The power dynamics in Jinling are relatively stable, and there won't be any large-scale armed conflicts over territory. So, generally speaking, the higher-ups don't want the balance here to be disrupted."
"But Ye Xingchen's arrival is not friendly. He seems to be up to something big. If we don't have the authority to investigate his identity, then there is only one possibility: the higher-ups want to make a move against Jinling and the Liang family."
"This..." Xu Er was taken aback. He had also considered this possibility. If that were the case, then these things were beyond their ability to resolve.
"We must inform Second Master immediately and tell him... someone is going to make a move against the Liang family." Huang San made up his mind instantly.
"Third Uncle... have you thought this through? If these matters alarm Second Master, the situation will be different." Xu Er composed himself and said, "Second Master has always been very suspicious. If things are not as we think, he will feel that we are using him."
"At this point, there's no time to worry about anything else," Huang San said coldly. "I never expected that a mere young man could throw us into such disarray."
"Ye Xingchen, who exactly are you? How should I treat you?"
Huang San paced back and forth in the room several times, the two jade beads in his hand spinning rapidly.
Finally, he made up his mind: "Don't hesitate any longer, inform the Second Master immediately."
"Yes." Xu Er nodded.
But just then, with a loud bang, the door exploded open, and several figures tumbled in.
These people who rolled in were the thugs of the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce.
Qilian Manor is where Huang San lives. Because of Ye Xingchen's situation these past few days, there are a lot of guards around this place.
These people broke down the door and came in; clearly, someone had already stormed in.
"Who goes there?" Xu Er stepped forward and shouted, as a large group of people surrounded him.
Ye Xingchen stepped in and said calmly, "Huang San, it's time."
"You are Ye Xingchen?" Huang San walked out of the house with his cane and stood in the square in front of the manor, staring intently at the young man in front of him.
You can tell from their posture that they have ill intentions.
This was, in fact, the first time he had met Ye Xingchen, and Ye Xingchen had only been in Jinling for a few days.
He never dreamed that he would be forced into this situation by a young man he had never met and who had no influence in Jinling.
"It's me, Uncle Huang. I've heard so much about you." Ye Xingchen nodded and walked in. His steps were calm and unhurried, but the aura he exuded caused the thugs in the manor to retreat.
"Stop! If you go any further, I'll shoot!" Huang San waved his hand, and dozens of his men pointed their guns at Ye Xingchen.
Facing hundreds of people and dozens of guns, Ye Xingchen's expression remained unchanged.
He said with a smile, "If I were you, I wouldn't send these people to their deaths. They're just cannon fodder in your hands, Huang San."
"Ye Xingchen, don't be so arrogant. I don't believe you can take on dozens of guns by yourself." Huang San stepped forward and said coldly, "Killing you would be as easy as turning my hand, but I want to know what deep-seated hatred we have that makes you target me like this?"
