Volume 1 Chapter 316 I'm Waiting
Qiao Family Compound.
Qiao Changming lifted the white cloth and saw the horrific body of Qiao Ruanliang. His brows couldn't help but frown.
Rather than calling it a corpse, it would be more accurate to say that it was corpse residue and body parts, so bloody and fleshy that not even a trace of human form could be discerned.
"The three experts responsible for Ruan Liang's safety have lost contact. Preliminary estimates show that they ran away because they were afraid of losing their lives." Qiao Zishi is the second in command of the Qiao family, equivalent to the chief steward of the ancient emperor.
"Asshole, traitor!"
When the heads of the Qiao family heard the news that the three masters had escaped, they were so angry that they shook all over and cursed loudly.
Qiao Changming's face was gloomy. He covered himself with the white cloth, signaled the guards to lift it up, and then slowly sat back in the main seat.
"Dad, Shen Wansan called." Qiao Qingsheng then handed him a satellite phone with both hands.
"Answer it!" Qiao Changming said in a deep voice.
Qiao Qingsheng then connected Shen Wansan's call.
The huge conference hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Everyone was looking at the satellite phone with sullen expressions, as if Shen Wansan was right in front of them.
"Qiao Changming, I know you suspect that I sent someone to assassinate the head of your Qiao family, but I, Shen Wansan, have something to say here. What is happening in Shangjing now has nothing to do with my Shen family. I say this not because I am afraid of your Qiao family, but because I don't want to take the blame for no reason!"
After saying that, Shen Wansan hung up the phone.
There was no need for any response from Qiao Changming. He just wanted to distance the Shen family from this matter. He knew how crazy Qiao Changming was. Although the Shen family was not afraid of the Qiao family, it was better to avoid disasters if possible.
In the meeting hall, everyone showed a puzzled expression. Since Shen Wansan had said so much, it was hard for them not to believe it.
If it’s not the Shen family, then the only possibility left is Li Tian’s master.
"Is there anything unusual at Shangjing Hospital?" Qiao Changming asked Qiao Zishi with a calm expression on his face.
Qiao Zishi shook his head: "No, I didn't find any trace of Master Li Tian."
"Then force him out!" Qiao Changming said coldly.
The Shen family of Southern Guangdong.
Shen Wansan was lying on a recliner in the villa compound, next to him was his younger brother Shen Wanlin.
"I never thought that Li Tian would have such a protective master."
Shen Wanlin was secretly delighted. The Shen family lost a Binhai spokesperson and thirteen masters. The Qiao family suffered even greater losses, with twenty masters killed by Li Tian. Although Li Tian was killed, the master behind Li Tian was forced out. "Qiao Changming is courting death this time. As long as Li Tian's master is not found, the head of the Qiao family will definitely encounter accidents one after another."
"Crazy Qiao thought he had Li Tian in his grasp, but ended up breaking his own teeth. How ridiculous." Shen Wansan's face was also full of smiles.
“So he is courting death.”
Shen Wanlin was in a very good mood. "By the way, what about Binhai? Are we just going to give up like this?"
"Don't act rashly. Let's wait and see how far Li Tian's master can push the Qiao family." Shen Wansan said.
Shen Wanlin nodded, thinking it made sense. This time it was a fight between gods, it was none of his business so he should just stay out of it and be a spectator. The outcome now was not a wise move.
At this time, the housekeeper came over.
"Master, three masters from the Qiao family contacted me and expressed their desire to follow our Shen family. One of them is a first-rate master, and the other two are second-rate masters." The butler bowed and saluted.
"What's going on?"
Shen Wanlin was shocked. It was unbelievable that such a powerful master would abandon the Qiao family and come to join their Shen family.
"The head of the Qiao family, whom they were responsible for protecting, was killed. If they continue to stay in the Qiao family, they will only be buried with that head." said the housekeeper.
"Sure, sure. You're very careful about your life." Shen Wanlin said with a smile.
Shen Wansan waved his hands and said, "Tell them to go back to where they came from. The Shen family has enough masters to serve, and we can't afford to serve them."
The butler nodded like a machine that only obeyed orders and had no thoughts of its own: "Yes."
Turned around and walked out.
"Brother, these are first-rate and second-rate masters."
Shen Wanlin reminded that such masters are extremely rare in the world, are you sure you don't want to accept them?
"No matter how powerful they are, they can betray the Qiao family today and they can betray our Shen family tomorrow. Besides, I just called Crazy Qiao to distance myself from him. If I accept them, wouldn't I be involved again? Right now, it's best to sit back and watch the fight between tigers, and not get involved." Shen Wansan said firmly.
Shangjing Hospital.
"Mr. Wen said that he wrote a report on your two actions and submitted it to the leader of Department A." The young doctor said to Li Tian.
Li Tian shook his head and laughed, thinking that Wen Guoliang was really persistent and was determined to send him to Department A.
Suddenly, he heard noisy footsteps outside. A large group of people were rushing here, and he could tell from the footsteps that they were coming in a powerful force.
"Bang~"
The door of the ward was pushed open heavily.
A greasy, burly man walked in with an angry look on his face.
Li Tian had read the information of the head of the Qiao family. All the information of each person was imprinted in his mind. He recognized him at a glance. This was Qiao Wenhao, the head of the Qiao family, who was in charge of managing the Qiao family's security company.
A group of people followed Qiao Wenhao in, with unfriendly faces.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" the young doctor asked loudly.
Qiao Wenhao ignored him, waved his hand forward, glared at Li Tian and said, "Hit me!"
A group of people pushed the young doctor away, threw Li Tian off the bed, and beat and kicked him.
Li Tian really wanted to kill all these people, but the four bodyguards of the Qiao family were like four mountains, and he was currently unable to fight against them. If the Qiao family knew that he had not become a useless person, he was afraid that the four bodyguards would kill him again.
Tolerate!
At this stage, he has to endure.
He couldn't even tense his muscles to defend himself, because to the Qiao family, he was now just an ordinary person, a useless person.
The guys were very heavy-handed. After a few seconds, he was bleeding from his mouth and nose and his body was in great pain.
Qiao Wenhao came up and stepped on his face with his foot.
The hard sole of the shoe stepped on his left cheek, while his right cheek was pressed tightly against the ground, and his nose could smell the smell of dust on the ground.
The endless feeling of humiliation surged into his heart again, causing Li Tian to clench his hands involuntarily.
"Let go of my patient!" the young doctor shouted.
“Pah~”
A strong man slapped him and said, "Shut up, it's none of your business, don't make trouble!"
Qiao Wenhao ignored the young doctor and said to Li Tian with his head down, "Little Thief, remember, my name is Qiao Wenhao. If you have the guts, ask your master to come to me. If not, I will come to you every day to loosen up your muscles!"
In Beijing dialect, "xiaozheyi" means similarly to "little bastard" and "little bastard".
Li Tian'e glared at him fiercely: "Okay, the next target is you."
Qiao Wenhao felt a chill, but thinking of the big net prepared at home, he calmed down and said, "I'll wait."
