In Beijing, a silent yet thrilling battle quietly came to an end. Several powerful families worked closely together, gathering evidence that, like sharp blades, pierced the Liu family's vital core. Faced with irrefutable evidence, the Liu family's vast influence in Beijing collapsed instantly. Liu Xiangquan and many core members of the family were arrested by the police, and the once invincible Liu family's glory in Beijing vanished like a mirage.
However, Li Jin, far away in Guangzhou, did not let her guard down. She knew that although the Liu family's influence in Guangzhou was managed by collateral branches, it was deeply entrenched, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, ready to launch a fatal attack at any moment.
"Ah Jin, the Liu family's influence in Beijing has been completely eradicated. But we can't let our guard down in Guangzhou. As far as I know, Liu Zhao'an, the head of a branch of the Liu family, is even more insidious and cunning, and he will stop at nothing to do things," Gong Moze said solemnly on the phone.
Li Jin nodded slightly, her eyes firm: "I understand, Mo Ze. You must still have a lot of work to finish in Beijing, so leave things in Guangzhou to me. I'll work with Brother Chen and the others to handle things carefully."
After hanging up the phone, Li Jin immediately summoned Chen Yu and Chen Xiaoyan to their secret hideout to discuss countermeasures.
"Girl, although the Liu family has fallen in Beijing, the situation in Guangzhou is still complicated. Liu Zhaoan must have already heard about the news in Beijing, and may be plotting revenge against us," Chen Yu analyzed with a serious expression.
Chen Xiaoyan chimed in, "That's right, Ajin. And as far as I know, Liu Zhaoan is also colluding with some local criminal gangs in Guangzhou, so we need to be extra careful."
After a moment of contemplation, Li Jin said, “We can’t just defend passively; we have to take the initiative. Xiaoyan, you’ve worked with the Liu family before, so you’re familiar with their businesses and connections in Guangzhou. You’re in charge of collecting evidence of Liu Zhaoan’s illegal and criminal activities, especially evidence of his collusion with organized crime. Brother Chen, use your connections to keep an eye on Liu Zhaoan’s every move. If you discover any unusual activity from him, notify me immediately.”
"Okay, don't worry, sister, I'll keep a close eye on him," Chen Yu assured, patting his chest.
"Ah Jin, what about you? What are your plans?" Chen Xiaoyan asked with concern.
A resolute glint flashed in Li Jin's eyes: "I'm going to meet Su Yue. She collected some evidence to protect herself before, and perhaps she knows other secrets about Liu Zhaoan. In any case, I'm going to try and dig out more useful information from her."
The three then went their separate ways. Li Jin, after making inquiries, learned that Su Yue was currently hiding in a villa on the outskirts of Guangzhou. She took several skilled bodyguards and drove to Su Yue's hideout.
When Li Jin appeared at the villa's entrance, Su Yue looked panicked. She looked at Li Jin with a mixture of fear and hesitation in her eyes.
“Su Yue, I’m not here to cause you trouble today. The Liu family is finished, and you should know your situation. Rather than continuing to be implicated by the Liu family, why not cooperate with me and tell me everything you know? Perhaps we can negotiate a lighter sentence,” Li Jin said bluntly.
Su Yue remained silent for a long time, her heart filled with intense struggle. After a while, she slowly spoke: "Li Jin, I... I do know some things about Liu Zhaoan. But I'm afraid, I'm afraid he'll retaliate against me."
Li Jin stepped forward, looking directly into Su Yue's eyes: "Su Yue, the Liu family has already fallen in Beijing. How much longer can Liu Zhaoan keep jumping around? Our major families have joined forces and are determined to completely eradicate the Liu family's influence in Guangzhou. By standing up now, you are not only helping us, but also helping yourself. Besides, your father and mother don't know about your activities in Guangzhou, do they?"
For a moment, Su Yue was terrified and asked, "How did you know?"
"How should I know! Don't you know that the first people the Liu family wants to deal with are your maternal grandfather and aunt?" Li Jin asked, somewhat speechless!
Su Yue stared wide-eyed and asked, "When did this happen?" Li Jin snorted coldly, "It happened two years ago. At that time, the Liu family didn't directly intervene, so we didn't suspect them. Now, it's clear that it was the Liu family's doing!"
Su Yue's face turned deathly pale, her body trembling uncontrollably. "So...so they've always been this ruthless." Su Yue's voice trembled, her eyes filled with despair and regret. "Li Jin, I'm willing to cooperate with you. I'll tell you everything I know about Liu Zhao'an." Su Yue took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind. But she didn't know much!
