Jia's usual work requires him to be ruthless and decisive, and to rely on his hard skills.
He had never seen Xu Zhi handle things in such a "green tea" way before.
Listening to Xu Zhi's words, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Being seen crying by Xu Zhi, a grown man, only made her more annoyed.
Adhering to the principle that "violence can solve everything," Jia raised his fist to strike again, and didn't forget to yell at his henchmen:
"Get them to hell!"
Upon receiving the order, Jia's men took the lead and immediately began a chaotic battle.
Some people kicked at the glass display case, some picked up antique vases, and some grabbed whatever was at hand to smash it...
Suddenly, a series of clanging and banging noises erupted.
The show is over; it's time to stop this farce.
Having just suffered a major financial loss at Chuanliu's place, Qianchuan couldn't bear to go through that pain again and immediately said:
What happened?
Everyone subconsciously stopped moving, and the whole place became a little quieter.
He walked down the stairs, putting on an official smile.
"When did my place become so lively? Two big shots have arrived at once."
Xu Zhi wiped away non-existent tears, put on a forced smile, and spoke first: "I'm sorry to have made Sixth Brother laugh. I will take full responsibility for all the losses your family has suffered today."
Jia was so angry he was grinding his teeth. "I don't need your charity. I'll pay for it myself!"
"No, I shouldn't have said things that Brother Jia wouldn't like to hear. It's all my fault."
Xu Zhi got up from the ground, stumbling as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind.
Jia felt like he had punched cotton, and his mood became increasingly agitated, even his breathing became somewhat unnatural.
He said to Qian Chuan, "Have your men organize the bills and send them to me."
The twitching of the nose became more and more intense, and it began to spasm with each breath.
The beautiful woman beside him also noticed that something was wrong with him, and could only try her best not to tug at his last thread.
He stubbed out the cigarette, which had already been smoked to the end, with his palm, and hurriedly left with his men, as if in a great hurry.
Xu and his party were left behind.
Only after all of Jia's men had gone far away did the fake Xu dismiss his subordinates and tell them to wait outside.
Having achieved his goal, the real Xu Zhi smiled at Qian Chuan, revealing a triumphant expression.
"How about we talk privately?"
The woman crossed her arms and stroked her man as she spoke.
Qian Chuan nodded and led her and her male companion to the VIP room.
Xu Zhi sat down, crossed his legs and swung them back and forth, looked around and said, "Your place is nicely decorated, even I'm jealous. No wonder those people in Red Peach who are used to luxury like to hang out with you."
“I can’t compare to you. Your winery is worth a fortune,” Qian Chuan replied.
Xu Zhi curled the corners of his lips and looked directly at Qian Chuan, "Brother Qian Liu doesn't think I'm just here to exchange pleasantries, does he?"
After hearing about the incident involving "3 of Diamonds", she immediately went to find the money string.
Now that "Cube 3" has been destroyed, the man in front of her has become the only variable in her plan.
"So you came to my house specifically to provoke him and give me a good show?"
Qian Chuan looked like he didn't understand, and brazenly revealed the woman's purpose.
Xu Zhi never bothered to hide his intentions, nodding frankly and saying, "And as it turns out, I succeeded. Of course, it wasn't just to drive him away; I also wanted you to see if someone who easily loses control of their emotions deserves to sit in the 'Ten of Diamonds' position."
Perhaps someone lacks temperament but possesses exceptional professional skills, allowing them to sit in an equal position among the "clubs," "hearts," or "spades," but they would never sit in the "diamonds" position, where ranking is based on intellect.
Because "mind" is the ability of "square".
Qian Chuan remained noncommittal, but still replied, "Brother Jia has been in this position for so long for a reason; what you want to do is your business, why drag me into it?"
Xu Zhi: "Why do you think I am? By not choosing a violent solution, I'm already considering the well-being of Cube City. Do you really want me to fight to the death?"
Qian Chuan: "Have you ever thought about who will suffer if you succeed and Jia becomes the 'Nine of Diamonds'?"
Xu Zhi said solemnly, "I can guarantee that once I become 'Square 10,' I will ensure your safety."
Qian Chuan retorted, "Is that so? But you chose to sacrifice yourself to the river for your own safety. Now it's my turn. How can you expect me to trust you?"
When Xu Zhi invited Chuan Liu, she must have already anticipated that Jia Zuowei would target her. However, she didn't warn him because of her grand ambitions.
If Chuanliu hadn't foreseen this, he would probably be long gone by now.
Xu has been traveling around lobbying these days, and apart from knowing that "Cube 3" was destroyed, he hasn't really paid much attention to the Chuanliu incident.
For a moment, she was speechless after being confronted by the money.
Selfishness is inherent in everyone on Bliss Island. Or is it simply human nature?
No one has the right to judge anyone else.
Unwilling to give up, Xu Zhi stood up and continued to plead, "I know what you're worried about. You want money, and I can split 'Square 10's' assets 50/50 with you; you want a peaceful life on the island, and I can guarantee you that without any worries."
After a long silence, as if he had made up his mind about something, Xu Zhi looked up and said, "If I get elected and remove Jia Zuowei, will you vote for me?"
Qian Chuan sneered, "You've been planning this all along, so don't pin the final decision to murder on me... Besides, Miss Xu, don't you think it's a bit pointless to kill someone after being elected?"
Xu Zhi was getting a little anxious. She knew that Qian Chuan understood what she meant, but he just wouldn't go along with what she said.
“That’s not what I meant! Now is the time when Jia is most wary of me, and I might easily alert him; if I am elected, he will definitely turn defense into offense…”
“Miss Xu, I’m not interested in your plan. If there’s nothing else, let’s end our conversation here for today.”
Qian Chuan interrupted her and asked her to leave.
Regarding the vote, neither agreement nor disagreement was stated.
Jia and Xu will definitely visit again; this matter probably won't be over until Xu has officially collected all the votes.
After more than ten days of lobbying, threats, inducements, and intimidation, Qian Chuan became extremely agitated. After settling his men, he went to the Red Peach Casino alone to "take refuge."
As luck would have it, I ran into someone I had just met this morning.
"Brother Qian Liu? We really are destined to meet."
