But things were far more complicated than he had imagined.
Xia Hanyue continued, "However, I will have the Tang family find someone else to take over the territory you temporarily occupied in Dongcheng. Now, take your people and get out of here immediately."
"This..." Chen Hu was dumbfounded, but seeing Xia Hanyue's unfriendly expression, he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Miss Xia, I'll leave now."
Chen Hu and his group slunk away, leaving Li Changsheng alone inside.
Li Changsheng was so frightened that his face turned pale and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
"Li Changsheng, do you have any other tricks? If so, use them all at once to avoid trouble." Xia Hanyue turned to look at Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng forced a smile: "Ms. Xia, it's a misunderstanding..."
*Slap*... Xia Hanyue slapped him across the face: "Misunderstanding? You think slapping me is a misunderstanding?"
"Yes, it's a misunderstanding. If Miss Xia isn't satisfied, please slap me a few more times." Li Changsheng looked at Xia Hanyue with fear. Even when she slapped him in the face, he didn't feel that angry.
Clap clap clap.
Three slaps landed in quick succession, leaving Li Changsheng dizzy and disoriented. He fell to his knees with a thud, still managing to force a smile.
"You're such a despicable person," Xia Hanyue said coldly. "I can't even talk business with you seriously, but you insist on playing dirty tricks on me."
"Now look what's happened, kneeling on the ground crying and begging for forgiveness. Don't you think you're shameless?"
"I'm shameless, I'm shameless to the extreme." Li Changsheng said with a mournful face, "I promise there won't be a next time. I've prepared your contract and will personally deliver it to your company tomorrow. What do you think?"
“Okay, but the contract needs to be changed.” Xia Hanyue sneered, “As for how to change it, that’s up to me.”
"Yes, Miss Xia's word is final. Everything is based on what Miss Xia says." Li Changsheng nodded repeatedly, now he didn't even have the courage to refute.
"Let's go." Xia Hanyue finally felt relieved and left with Ye Xingchen.
Li Changsheng slumped on the sofa, on the verge of tears.
"Weakening Chen Hu's strength was something you did intentionally, wasn't it?" Ye Xingchen said with a smile after they left.
The underground forces in Yanjing are all controlled by the Tang family.
And since the eldest daughter of the Tang family, who is in charge of the household, has such a relationship with her own aunt, the affairs of the Tang family are also her affairs.
Since the previous bigwig's rebellion failed, Chen Hu has temporarily taken control of his territory.
However, Chen Hu's power is now expanding, subtly putting considerable pressure on the other individuals.
"If we don't take this opportunity to weaken his strength, when will we?" Xia Hanyue smiled slightly and said, "Chen Hu comes from a humble background, and his achievements today are inseparable from his abilities."
"But the stronger this kind of person is, the more arrogant they become. If we don't take this opportunity to teach them a lesson, they might just become incredibly arrogant in the future."
"Auntie, you've really thought this far ahead." Ye Xingchen nodded. "But this person's loyalty shouldn't be a problem."
“There’s no need to worry about loyalty; he’s a smart man.” Xia Hanyue said leisurely, “Besides, he’s also a smart man. After this warning, he’s come to his senses. Otherwise, if things continued like this, something terrible would happen sooner or later.”
"Understood." Ye Xingchen nodded slightly.
"How did you resolve Jiang Yongkang's situation?" Xia Hanyue asked.
"What else can we do? Send him to hell, of course." Ye Xingchen smiled faintly.
When he said he was sending Jiang Yongkang to hell, he meant sending him to hell in the truest sense.
Jiang Yongkang has repeatedly committed acts against Heaven, and his good karma and blessings have long since vanished. His name has long since appeared on the soul-collecting tablets of the underworld messengers.
Ye Xingchen was merely creating an opportunity for the soul-capturing underworld messengers, but this guy was captured along with his physical body.
However, the path to the underworld is extremely cold and gloomy, and is teeming with evil and wicked creatures. He fears that before he can even reach the halfway point, his body will be completely devoured, leaving only his soul to be forcibly taken into the underworld.
Ye Xingchen only had a superficial understanding of the underworld, and the little information he knew came from the Supreme Jade Purity Dao Scripture, since he had never been there.
However, it would be difficult for someone like Jiang Yongkang to enter the cycle of reincarnation.
"Alright, I wonder if that old man from the Ye family will be so angry he'll vomit blood if he finds out about this." Xia Hanyue smiled slightly. "But if he sincerely repents now and entrusts the Ye family to you, would you save him?"
"Why should I want the Ye family?" Ye Xingchen sneered. "The Ye family may be a wealthy and powerful family, but I, Ye Xingchen, am just as capable as any wealthy and powerful family."
"Besides, what's the point of me going to the Ye family if my father isn't there? However, if he sincerely repents and considers our blood ties, I can help him."
"Really?" Xia Hanyue looked at Ye Xingchen in disbelief, after all, she knew that Ye Xingchen was definitely not the kind of person who would repay evil with kindness.
“He has been taking Jiang Yongkang’s medicine and undergoing various poison treatments by the Ghost Doctor. His physical potential has already been almost completely depleted.” Ye Xingchen shook his head: “Since it is I who am taking action, I cannot save him. At most, I can only extend his life by about three years.”
“Three years is too lenient for him,” Xia Hanyue said calmly. “That old bastard deserved to die. He was ruthless to you and your son back then.”
"I didn't do this for nothing," Ye Xingchen sneered. "I'm determined to make him lose face completely. He has to bear the consequences of what he did back then."
Several days later, at the Ye family's villa.
"Where did Doctor Jiang go? Find him, go find him quickly." Ye Taihe's face turned ashen, displaying the deathly pallor of someone who is dead.
He roared hysterically, "If we can't find Doctor Jiang, no one should come back! Go find him now!"
"Dad, I've already sent people to look for him, but for some reason, we can't get in touch with Doctor Jiang." Ye Chengen said hypocritically, "You know, these kinds of experts are always elusive."
"Perhaps he's gone into seclusion somewhere on a whim, but don't worry, I've already sent someone to ask his junior brother, Chen Zhengde will definitely know his whereabouts."
Ye Taihe mustered all his strength and grabbed Ye Chengen.
"You should know that I have already made a will. If I die, all of the Ye family's assets will be donated to the country, and the Ye Group will be dissolved." Ye Taihe said through gritted teeth, "So if I die, you will get nothing."
"Dad, I know. Don't worry, I will definitely find Doctor Jiang. Even if I can't find him, I will find a way to cure your illness." Ye Chengen was truly panicked.
He then realized that the old man wasn't joking with him; now, the old man would rather die than believe him.
The old man believed that Ye Chengen had deliberately refused to treat his illness in order to seize the Ye family's property. This made Ye Chengen extremely uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do about it.
