Chapter 723: The umbrella is about to be lost, how can you have the courage to survive?

Wei Cheng was in so much pain from the wound on his arm that he didn't care about the property that was destroyed tonight. He was surrounded by people and rushed into the Wei Mansion.

Gui Sheng was cautious and didn't dare to interrupt. When Yan Jun was about to leave, he whispered, "Chairman, what do you think of the introduction you mentioned earlier?"

"No need."

Yan Jun narrowed his eyes in displeasure and said, "Gui Sheng, in the Jiangnan area, our Nanxun Chamber of Commerce has always had the final say."

“Although it is said that seeking common ground while reserving differences is the old man’s way, a sideways couch cannot accommodate another’s sound sleep.”

Gui Sheng thought that it was not up to you or me to decide whether others wanted to sleep soundly. Maybe they were going to chop up even your bedside table with a knife, so where would you get a couch for sleeping on?

A newly dug grave?

Seeing that Gui Sheng didn't respond, Yan Jun sneered, "This person is hiding his true identity and doesn't know how to behave. He really doesn't know the rules."

"This won't work, understand?"

Gui Sheng was stunned for a moment, then whispered, "What does the leader mean?"

"In the Jiangnan region, on the territory of our Nanxun Chamber of Commerce, any outsider who comes here must be coiled like a dragon or lie prone like a tiger!"

Yan Jun sneered: "No rush."

"Tomorrow, I'll take down the owner of Sanyou Trading Company. Then, without your help, he'll naturally come and ask to see me."

After saying this, Yan Jun was too lazy to talk to Gui Sheng and just ordered his men to drive away.

Gui Sheng was left there with a confused look on his face. He looked around, clenched his fists, and sighed frequently, walking away with a sigh every three steps.

Gui Sheng's reaction was reported to Wei Cheng, who gripped his concubine's wrist tightly and gritted his teeth, "Gui Sheng is just a spineless loser. What great things can he accomplish?"

"Today I was careless and fell into that bitch's trap. I'll definitely remember this knife!"

"Once I've completely busted that bastard Sanyou Trading Company and that bitch is in my hands, I'll have countless ways to torture her to the point where she'd be worse off than death!"

This night in Nanyun City was destined to be a sleepless night for many people.

Sang Zhixia did what he said, and all the other buildings of the Wei family in the city were completely destroyed overnight.

When the sun rises in the east, the fire remains unquenched.

When Sang Zhixia sat down after a busy period, she found that Sang Yanyou was still wearing the pink dress that gave people a headache when they saw it.

Sang Yanyou and Xu Mingyang no longer had their previous domineering attitude. One served tea and the other handed out porridge. They lowered their brows and looked very well-behaved. No one who saw them could imagine what kind of situation it was that these two people kept calling each other "little master".

Sang Zhixia took the tea and said with a smile, "Not crazy anymore?"

The two shook their heads and said in unison: "Not crazy, not crazy, we are very good!"

"Oh."

"good?"

Sang Zhixia rolled her eyes in annoyance: "I'm too lazy to talk to you guys."

"Wait until Nuonuo's father comes back, then you can go and talk to him yourself."

An hour ago, Xu Yu sent someone to convey the news to Sang Zhixia, and he was happy to see the big show after dawn.

The fire tonight was just right.

Xu Mingyang and Sang Yanyou have made great contributions.

But you can't brag.

These two guys are both prone to getting cocky. Once they are praised, who knows what kind of shocking and tragic drama they will make up for themselves next time.

Sang Zhixia suppressed her laughter as she watched the two being so cautious, and waved her hand in disdain: "Go away, stop getting in my way and go back to rest."

"Sister-in-law."

Xu Mingyang stammered, "We don't want to rest yet."

"Well...can we go check on Sister Xue?"

Many abducted people, both men and women, were found in several secret rooms of the Wei family.

The oldest is no more than sixteen years old, and the youngest is less than two years old.

More than sixty people were found in these places, and all of them were sent to a house temporarily vacated by Xue Liu for resettlement.

Tian Ying'er couldn't sit still for a moment and went straight over there.

Sang Zhixia raised her eyebrows.

Sang Yanyou grunted, "Sister, we promise not to cause any trouble. We're just going to see if there's anything we can do to help. Is that okay with us?"

Sang Zhixia had a faint smile in her eyes. After a moment of silence, she said helplessly, "Go if you want to."

"But there's been some commotion in the city today. Don't run around or make any noise except at Sister Xue's place. Remember that?"

The two young men nodded vigorously to show that they understood, and after getting Sang Zhixia's permission, they turned around happily and were about to run away.

Sang Zhixia pressed her brows together, unable to bear it any longer: "Sang Yanyou."

"Go change your clothes first, kid!"

It's okay late at night.

It's now bright outside. If we let this kid go out dressed in pink again, we will be embarrassed!

Sang Yanyou suddenly let out a cry of realization, then quickly grabbed the hem of her skirt and ran away.

Chen Jingan, sitting on the side, laughed out loud: "Oh, don't say that."

"This soft pink really suits him!"

"Did I forget to compliment you on your good taste?"

Sang Zhixia couldn't help but laugh, saying happily, "He's just young. When he grows up a few years, I'm afraid you won't be able to fool him anymore."

Chen Jingan felt no guilt for his evil deeds. He chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, if I don't trick them, they will do the good deeds anyway."

"Besides, doesn't that pink dress look pretty on you?"

Sang Zhixia shook her head and ignored him. Chen Jingan waved her fan and said softly, "By the way, did Xu Yu succeed?"

"Um."

Sang Zhixia directly handed the secret letter sent back by Xu Yu to Chen Jing'an's hand: "He has come in person, plus the news sent by Yan Jun during the day, Qian An will definitely take the bait."

Qian An was already worried about his future, and he also suspected that Hao Liang and others had turned against him.

It was like a pillow appearing when one was sleepy, so he naturally agreed to wipe out the pirates.

Qian An thought that Xu Yu's personal visit was a great honor to him and a sign of his appreciation for him, so he agreed to all the conditions proposed by Xu Yu.

I am also very happy that I will be able to devote myself to Lingnan soon.

The work is done very hard.

Chen Jing'an scanned the secret letter and asked subtly, "Hao Liang also knew about this early on?"

"Know."

Sang Zhixia sighed and said, "In fact, when Yan Jun decided to discuss with Qian An about clearing out the pirates, Hao Liang already knew their next move."

"So, when we were seeking justice at the Wei family's gate that night, Qian An thought he was acting covertly and gathering his men, hoping to demonstrate his strength in front of Xu Yu. Unexpectedly, he ran head-on into the well-prepared pirates. Now..."

"They should both be hurt and have completely fallen out, right?"

After all, neither of them could have imagined that Xu Yu would bet on both sides of the gambling table, which was exactly what he wanted: a dog-eat-dog effect.

None of the desperate criminals who got on this gambling table could get off in the end.

Chen Jingan thought about missing out on the dog-eat-dog drama and sighed with regret, "What a pity I didn't get to join in the fun."

"There was a big commotion in front of the Wei family's gate last night. Everyone in the city was focused on it. Few people know about the heroic and invincible Lord Qian who personally led his men in a fierce battle against the pirates."

Sang Zhixia laughed out loud at the sarcasm in his words: "It's not a big deal if I missed the excitement of the nighttime bandit suppression."

"The pirates and the water transport bureau are at war to the death. Qian An has to fight for his own false future."

"When the Water Transport Bureau opens its doors today and the drums are beaten, the expressions on Weicheng and the others' faces will be quite eye-catching."

She wants to use this umbrella of protection for collusion between officials and businessmen temporarily.

As for those who were hiding under the umbrella and doing evil wantonly...

My umbrella is almost gone, how can I have the courage to still dream of living?
