Old Gou withdrew his gaze from Wang Xiaofa, secretly grinding his teeth. Since Wang Dafei was gone anyway, one day he would crush this little brat.
Then, he turned to look at Xing Zhaozhao, and a sharp glint flashed in his slightly narrowed eyes: "Sister Xing? Big Sister? It seems I am indeed ignorant. I didn't know when Lanyuan produced someone like you, someone that even Wang Dafei is willing to call 'Sister'."
Xing Zhaozhao: "..." It's over. With Wang Xiaofa publicizing this, she's probably stuck with the title of "big sister." She genuinely just wanted to save up some money for her three children. However, things have already developed to this point, and the atmosphere has reached this level. Even if she wanted to deny it, probably no one would believe her, so she has no choice but to admit it.
"Now you know." Xing Zhaozhao looked at Lao Gou expressionlessly and said, "If you have something to say, say it quickly. If not, please leave. You've brought so many people here, which is delaying our business."
"Will it interfere with your business?" Old Gou smiled and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, it won't."
“Why not? When I came over just now, I saw that the street ahead was empty, everyone had run away,” Xing Zhaozhao said coldly.
"Because this place won't be your business anymore, you won't have any business to do, so why would you be delayed in your business?" Old Gou laughed smugly and said.
The people behind him immediately burst into laughter.
Xing Zhaozhao and the people behind her both frowned.
"This isn't our business, so how could it be yours?" Xing Zhaozhao asked.
"Of course." Old Gou looked at Xing Zhaozhao and said, "Otherwise, what do you think I brought so many people here for? To visit relatives? Without Wang Dafei, you don't think you can still keep your business here, do you?"
Xing Zhaozhao's heart sank. She thought this old guy had brought so many people to cause trouble, but it turned out he was here to seize territory.
She looked at Lao Gou, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said, "Putting aside the fact that you brought so many people here, you might not be able to take away the business here. Even if you do manage to take it away, Fei Ge is only temporarily away. He's not dead. He'll come back eventually. You don't think you can hold onto it then, do you? You only dare to try to take it when he's not around."
When Xing Zhaozhao exposed him in public, the old man, who was no match for the young and vigorous Fei Ge, was a little embarrassed. However, when he thought about it, he realized that although he was old, he was still alive and well, while Fei Ge, who had always been suppressing him, had died long ago. His depressed mood instantly improved.
"Looks like you don't know yet," Old Gou said, looking at Xing Zhaozhao with ill intent.
Xing Zhaozhao's heart skipped a beat, and she had a bad feeling about it: "What do you know?"
"Wang Dafei is dead." Old Gou grinned, his smile smug.
"This is impossible!" Xing Zhaozhao exclaimed in shock, turning sharply to look at Zheng Ping'an. "Didn't you say it was just an accident? How could he..." be dead?
"Death is just something happening," Old Gou said with a wicked grin.
"No way!" Wang Xiaofa, who had just been dragged away, couldn't help but run out again, spitting at Lao Gou's face and saying, "I told you you're an old dog, but you still won't admit it. Sure enough, you can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth."
After saying that, he turned to Xing Zhaozhao and said, "Sister, don't listen to that old dog's nonsense. My brother just fell down the steep slope. Although he may not be alive, he may not be dead either. My brother is so strong, I believe he will survive."
When Lao Gou saw Wang Xiaofa, his anger, which had just subsided, flared up again. Before he could even lash out, he noticed something amiss in Wang Xiaofa's words. He narrowed his eyes, looked at him, and asked, "Wait a minute, how did you know what happened to your brother? Where did you hear that from?"
He got the information from Ling Yongde. Logically speaking, there shouldn't have been anyone else present besides Ling Yongde's men. How did Fei Ge's men know?
Old Gou felt a chill run down his spine. Something was wrong here.
“I am…” Wang Xiaofa was not very shrewd and was about to speak.
Although Xing Zhaozhao was unaware of what was going on inside, she sensed something was wrong and immediately covered Wang Xiaofa's mouth, signaling to Zheng Ping'an.
Zheng Ping'an nodded in understanding, grabbed Wang Xiaofa, and dragged him back to the small house at the back, locking him up. He also specifically asked Sun Liang to go and keep a close eye on him, lest he cause any more trouble. This kid is really too much of a troublemaker.
Wang Xiaofa was unhappy and pitifully clung to Zheng Ping'an, saying, "No, Brother Ping'an, I want to watch the show."
Zheng Pingan ignored him completely, closed the door, and left.
Wang Xiaofa had no choice but to reluctantly press his ear against the door to listen.
After seeing Wang Xiaofa off, Xing Zhaozhao looked at the old man with a deep gaze: "I'm also very curious. Fei Ge only went to Qingxi Town yesterday, and you're in Lanyuan Town today. How come you found out about Fei Ge's accident faster than Xiaofa, who is a relative? Where did you hear that from?"
Old Gou thought to himself, "This is bad," and said stiffly, "I have my own sources of information, and I don't need to report to you."
Xing Zhaozhao stared at Lao Gou for a moment, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said, "Brother Fei's accident, could it be related to you?"
Old Gou's expression immediately changed, and he glared angrily at Xing Zhaozhao: "Don't make baseless accusations without evidence."
Xing Zhaozhao raised an eyebrow and said, "It's alright, I believe the Public Security Brigade will be interested in helping me investigate the evidence, as well as your source of information."
Old Gou's face was ashen, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Then you can try. Without evidence, they'll just call me in for questioning, and at most detain me for a couple of days. But for you, it's a different story..."
Old Gou's gloomy gaze slowly swept over Xing Zhaozhao and Fei Ge's men behind her: "Wang Dafei is dead. You can't hold onto this business on your own. Even if it's not me, someone else will come. If you know what's good for you and are willing to follow me, I can give you another chance. But if someone else comes, it's hard to say. You'd better think it through."
Without a second thought, Xing Zhaozhao gave him a single word: "Get lost."
"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences." Old Gou said coldly with a stern face, taking two steps back. "Throw them all out, just don't kill them."
The men behind Lao Gou immediately shouted and swarmed forward.
Old Gou brought a lot of men with him this time to cause trouble, and almost all of them were strong and capable fighters. Since he couldn't gather that many people at once, he borrowed some from Ling Yongde.
Fei Ge's side was completely unprepared, and they were significantly outnumbered. As the enemy surged towards them, they didn't show any fear on the surface, but they were all a little worried inside.
The guy on Lao Gou's side, the one in the lead, immediately spotted Xing Zhaozhao with a malicious smile: "Sister Xing? And she's the one Wang Dafei willingly acknowledges as his sister? I wonder what she's got up her sleeve? Maybe it's her skills in bed?"
The people around him then let out a knowing laugh.
"I have to give it a try." The man said, and then reached out his groping hand to Xing Zhaozhao.
Upon seeing this, Zheng Ping'an and Wang Dashuang's expressions darkened, and they stepped forward together, trying to protect Xing Zhaozhao behind them.
Xing Zhaozhao reached out and stopped them. Seeing the man's groping hand reach out, a cold glint flashed in her eyes, and she grabbed the man's wrist.
The man froze instantly, his head filled with confusion: Huh? That's strange, why can't I move?
The people around him stopped and looked at him in confusion: "Hey, Lao Xian, why aren't you moving?"
"I...can't move..." Old Xian's forehead was covered in sweat.
"What are you pretending for? How could you not be able to move?" Someone nearby didn't believe him and tried to pull him away.
Xing Zhaozhao grabbed the old man's wrist expressionlessly and twisted it hard.
"Crack." What a crisp sound of bone breaking.
"Ah..." A pig-like scream then echoed through the sky.
