Chapter 490 Assassination
Zhou Zijue, holding a glass of champagne, walked over to Lianyi in a pretentious manner when he had some free time.
"Congratulations, Sister Yunyi, for becoming the new leader."
While speaking, he raised the wine glass in his hand towards Lianyi.
Lian Yi was very considerate and clinked the wine glass in his hand with the other party, then said with a smile:
"It's my luck."
"Zeng Hongliang had been suppressing Sister Yun before. Now that he's gone, you've made the entire group even stronger."
Zhou Zijue said meaningfully.
"It's not that we're suppressing them, it's just that everyone has different business philosophies. Now is an era of informatization, networking, and internationalization. Zeng Hongliang's way of beating and killing is no longer popular."
Lianyi shook the wine glass in her hand and skillfully retorted.
"How could it be! Some methods, no matter how old, are very effective. For example, I don't know how to return the goods that Sister Yun forcibly borrowed from the Zhou family to us."
Zhou Zijue asked directly.
"I am not interested in your Zhou family's other businesses. I just want to take back all the arms trading lines. From now on, only my family can deal in arms."
Lianyi did not pretend not to know, but went straight to the point.
"You want to dominate the market alone! I saw the Shan and Jian families hand over their businesses, but you didn't show any mercy!"
Zhou Zijue snorted coldly.
"You're wrong, they didn't hand it over voluntarily, I snatched it from me!
Do you know how many assassins they hired to deal with me? Why should I show them mercy? Winners take their place. They don’t know the reality. I can only teach them how to do things.”
Ripple said with a faint smile.
"They are stupid. Our Zhou family has always been low-key, and our main business is not in arms. Perhaps we can try another way of cooperation."
Seeing that Lian Yi was unmoved, Zhou Zijue simply extended an olive branch, which was also the purpose of his attending this banquet.
Before coming, he went to visit his father, Zhou Hongyu, the former head of the Zhou family. He told Zhou Zijue that Yun Yi was now in great power and had used the police to bring down the Shan and Jian families, thus creating obstacles for the Zhou family.
In this game, they are already at a disadvantage. Since continuing the confrontation will do no good to the Zhou family, they should join Yunyi. However, the word "join" is in quotation marks. What they need to do is to be flexible and take it step by step.
Zhou Zijue only made such a straightforward invitation after receiving his father's instructions.
"Mr. Zhou, if you have any good suggestions, please share them with me."
Lian Yi also said along the way.
At this time, Zhou Zijue led Lianyi to a corner of the banquet hall. Some things he said were definitely not convenient for a third party to hear.
Lianyi did not refuse. She walked slowly to the floor-to-ceiling window and signaled the other party that he could speak. Shizi, Gong Fan and Malu stood three steps away from the two of them, forming a semi-encirclement, temporarily separating the two of them. This not only prevented others from getting close, but also made it easier for them to protect Lianyi.
The female companion brought by Zhou Zijue looked at the two people who were talking happily, stomped her feet in anger, raised her head to drink the red wine in the glass, and left with her skirt lifted.
"Sister Yun, our Zhou family buys more arms for our own use than for selling, so it's better not to do this business. It's just that our white transportation channel needs the support of force, so."
Zhou Zijue spoke cryptically, but Lianyi understood. She nodded thoughtfully and said:
"You mean you won't do arms business anymore and only buy arms from me?"
"Of course. When we ship the goods, we can also ask Sister Yun's people to help escort them and give you 20% of the profits. What do you think?"
"Aren't you afraid that I might take away all the goods?"
Lianyi asked with a smile.
"Sister Yun, every business has its own ways. Just like you are in the arms business, you can get in touch with Europe, and our Zhou family also has our own ways. You can borrow our goods once, but you can't borrow our goods every time.
Besides, the Zhou family failed to deliver the goods on time, and the buyer would not let it go. If he knew that the goods were in Sister Yun’s hands, I’m afraid.”
Zhou Zijue didn't finish the rest of his words, but Lianyi understood what he meant.
"You are threatening me!"
Lian Yi had just finished speaking when she heard the sound of a mortar:
"You've been targeted!"
"where?"
"The building across the street!"
Zhou Zijue looked at Yun Yi opposite him with a gloomy face, then turned his head to look out the floor-to-ceiling window. The next moment he heard a "puff" sound, and then saw that there was suddenly a hole on the floor-to-ceiling window glass that Yun Yi was looking at, with a bullet embedded in it. He subconsciously lowered his body.
The man holding a sniper rifle in the opposite building saw through the scope that his target was still standing. The glass in front of her was not cracked, and the red-dressed woman's line of sight was right in front of him. He frowned and whispered:
“It turned out to be bulletproof glass!”
Then, he loaded the bullet again. If one shot didn't work, he would shoot twice. He pulled the trigger decisively, aiming at the same position as before. He was confident that he could penetrate the bulletproof glass this time.
Lianyi looked at Zhou Zijue, who was shrinking and retreating, preparing to leave the floor-to-ceiling window, and kicked him directly, kicking him far away, directly knocking over a row of buffet tables. Then the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window where Lianyi was standing shattered with a "crash".
A series of unexpected events immediately caused chaos in the banquet hall, with screams from female guests rising one after another.
While Lianyi was kicking Zhou Zijue away, he dodged behind the pillar next to the French window, completely concealing his figure.
But the "puff puff" sound of bullets hitting the ground never stopped. Unlucky ones were the guests in the banquet hall who were running around like headless flies.
Shi Zi and Xuan Si came to Lian Yi's side as soon as possible, while Gong Fan hid on the other side. All three of them held pistols in their hands.
"Lion, take Xuan Si with you to evacuate the guests. Don't let them become targets."
"Gong Fan, we need to kill that killer. Let Malu bring the weapons over."
"Got it, be careful!"
Shizi and Xuansi immediately responded that if anything happened to these people, this naming ceremony would be a joke.
"Everyone, don't panic. Find cover and stay where you are. I will be responsible for getting everyone out of here. If you run around, you will become a target!"
The lion's voice was very penetrating and everyone heard it. In order to save their lives, they immediately found something to cover their bodies and either lay or crouched on the spot. They were extremely obedient.
At this time, two gunshots were heard at the door of the banquet hall. Everyone was so scared that they lowered their heads lower, fearing that the bullets would fall on their heads.
"Bang" the door was kicked open and Malu came in. He had a gun box in his hand and he immediately threw the box in the direction of Gong Fan.
With a "puff", the gun magazine was hit and deviated from its original direction, falling right in front of the floor-to-ceiling window that was already wide open.
Shizi and Xuansi have already started to move, taking the guests near the gate away first.
Gong Fan looked at the gun case that was so close to him. Just as he stuck his head out, a bullet flew past his ear.
"Fan, find a way to kick the gun box to me!"
