Chapter 82 Pei Jiuyan is in trouble
Looking at the group blocking several escape routes, Pei Jiuyan calmly said:
"Your Young Master Chen is being a bit too unscrupulous, making you risk your lives on days like this."
He recently shut down several of the Chen family's establishments. On the surface, it appeared that only a few clubs and bars belonging to Chen Boxu were investigated, but in reality, he cut off some of the Chen family's shady businesses.
He knew the Chen family would definitely cause him trouble, and he had been waiting for it, but he didn't expect Chen Boxu to make his move today.
"It's not easy for Ninth Master to be alone."
"That's what the burly man at the head of the group said."
It's not that they didn't want to take action during this time, but Pei Jiuyan was too cautious. On the surface, he appeared to be alone, but in reality, he was always accompanied by others.
Neither of them expected to have this opportunity today, after all, given Pei Jiuyan's cautious nature, she would never be without someone by her side 24 hours a day.
But today, I don't know if he's gone mad, he actually gave everyone around him the day off.
When they discovered this problem while keeping watch, they were shocked. How could people in their line of work celebrate the New Year? Isn't this ridiculous?
You should know that Pei Jiuyan is even more ruthless than their young master. How could someone like that let his subordinates go home and rest?
Although they didn't know what was wrong with him, they only had one chance like this, so they chose to make their move at this time.
"Ninth Master, don't blame us on your way to the underworld. It's your fault for cutting off our brothers' way of survival."
The Chen family suffered losses, and those who couldn't be seen in the light of day were the ones most affected. They relied on those businesses to make a living, and their hatred for Pei Jiuyan was no less than that for Chen Bo.
Hearing the big man's words, Pei Jiuyan scoffed. These people were talking too confidently.
He threw his coat on the ground, stretched his wrists, and said, "Come on."
He hasn't taken action in a long time. The last time was when he was saving the documents, which almost made Yun Zhaozhao break up with him.
Actually, it wasn't what he told Yun Zhaozhao at all that time.
It's true that he rescued the document, but it wasn't because the document was being bullied or anything. Rather, it was because there was a problem with one of his goods, and someone was trying to double-cross him.
At that time, many of his businesses were shady, and he had to resort to unorthodox methods to quickly accumulate capital.
That time, he almost died. He didn't dare to fall asleep before being sent to the hospital. He and his clerk rehearsed their statements before he agreed to receive treatment.
Therefore, when he later learned of the document's explanation, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. However, at that time, he didn't know that Yun Zhaozhao had almost gotten into trouble as well. Sometimes, a moment's lapse in judgment can lead to a major mistake.
Just as he was thinking this, he felt a sharp pain in his chin, and the punch instantly brought him to his senses.
"Ninth Master, you're distracted while fighting. You're really not taking your brothers seriously."
The burly man said unhappily.
Pei Jiuyan spat out a mouthful of blood and slowly said, "I really don't take you seriously."
None of them expected him to be so arrogant, and they all drew their knives.
Everyone says Pei Jiuyan is refined and elegant. Yun Zhaozhao was initially attracted to his appearance, but none of them knew what kind of person was behind that appearance. Even Chen Boxu and Xing Shangye, who considered themselves his best friends, did not know that he was quite skilled in martial arts.
Half an hour later, Pei Jiuyan picked up her coat from the ground, glanced at the person lying on the ground convulsing, made a phone call to have someone handle the situation, and then continued walking back unsteadily.
He wasn't completely uninjured, but they were all minor injuries. After not moving for a long time, he wasn't as agile as before.
It's almost midnight now, and fireworks are going off everywhere.
The previously deserted streets have become lively again, with many people setting off fireworks and many beggars also coming out. At this time, people generally won't refuse if you say some nice things, after all, it's the first day of the new year.
People also came to beg around Pei Jiuyan. Pei Jiuyan was in a good mood, so he took out his wallet and gave them large bills. Because of this, more and more beggars came around him.
He only had a little money in his bag, which he quickly distributed. However, the beggars didn't believe him and blocked him from leaving. Pei Jiuyan thought he was too good-natured; otherwise, how could these people dare to act like this?
Just as he was about to say something, his wallet was snatched from his hand, and the group of beggars scattered in all directions.
It would be fine if it were just an ordinary wallet, but this wallet was a gift from Yun Zhaozhao. Even though it's the age of electronic payments now, he carries it with him every day, and has been carrying it for many years.
He naturally couldn't allow his wallet to be stolen, so he immediately gave chase.
Finally, he grabbed a teenager and saw that his precious wallet had been crumpled up like that. His expression changed instantly, and his warm face turned somewhat frightening.
The beggar was terrified and suddenly pulled out something and stabbed it into Pei Jiuyan's stomach. Pei Jiuyan felt a pain in his lower abdomen and looked down to see that his clothes were already soaked with blood. He looked at the half-grown child.
The child was terrified and pushed Pei Jiuyan hard, causing Pei Jiuyan to fall into the snow.
He had walked a long way and had been in a fight, leaving him exhausted. Now, having been stabbed in the back, he couldn't get up no matter what he tried.
When his consciousness was fading, he had only one thought in his mind: if he died, would Yun Zhaozhao forgive him?
"ah!"
In the darkness, Yun Zhaozhao suddenly sat up, covered in cold sweat. She had just had a dream in which Pei Jiuyan lay motionless in the snow.
She knew it was a dream, but she still couldn't stop being afraid.
Finally, she couldn't resist dialing Pei Jiuyan's number, but no one answered for a long time.
It was normal for Pei Jiuyan to be asleep at this hour, but for some reason, Yun Zhaozhao felt uneasy, and in the end she went to find Assistant Qin.
"I'm sorry to bother you at this hour, Assistant Qin."
Yun Zhaozhao didn't mention that she had just had a bad dream, but only said that Pei Xiaobao was not doing well and that she couldn't get through to Pei Jiuyan on the phone.
Assistant Qin's expression immediately changed: "I understand, Madam. I'll go check on President Pei right away."
Yun Zhaozhao didn't know, but he knew in his heart that ever since Pei Jiuyan went down the mine and missed Yun Zhaozhao's call, he had never let his phone out of his sight. Even when he went to places without signal, he would get a satellite phone, just in case Yun Zhaozhao called him and couldn't find him again.
Pei Jiuyan would never miss Yun Zhaozhao's call, so something must have happened to President Pei.
After making the call, Yun Zhaozhao felt no relief; instead, she became even more worried.
She went to the living room and poured herself a glass of water.
A scourge can live for a thousand years. Someone like Pei Jiuyan is lucky if he doesn't kill others; how could anything happen to him?
Just then, the phone rang.
