After returning to his residence and washing up simply, Xiao Chen lay down on the bed.
He lit a cigarette, thought about it, and called Qiu Shangxi.
"Hello, Xiao Chen."
Qiu Shangxi was somewhat delighted when he received Xiao Chen's call.
At least, he didn't ignore her.
Moreover, as some news came out, she also had some vague guesses.
But if he didn't tell her, she wouldn't ask.
"Well, Fatty and I have discussed it, and we will go to Shouyan tomorrow."
"Really? Great! What time are you coming over tomorrow?"
Qiu Shangxi said happily, and as for the fat man, he was simply ignored by him.
"Tomorrow afternoon."
"Okay, how come you're here? I'll pick you up at the station?"
"We'll drive over and come straight to you then."
"Okay, I'll wait for you here."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Is there any news from the Nine Stars Gang now?"
"I don't know. I just stayed here and didn't dare to go anywhere. I didn't go out."
"Well, Fatty should know the news. Let me ask him."
"good."
After the two chatted for a few more sentences, Xiao Chen hung up the phone.
He put his cell phone aside, turned off the lights, and thought about random things.
I don’t know how long it took before I fell asleep.
He woke up around seven o'clock the next day.
He got up, washed, and left the room. The fat man had already bought breakfast.
"Get up, hurry up and eat. After dinner, we will set off."
The fat man was a little impatient.
Before last night, although he had confidence in Xiao Chen, he was more worried. After all, the Nine Star Gang was a behemoth, and Song Hongji was now in charge of this behemoth!
But now, he has more confidence!
Before, he was thinking more about how he would escape if he failed!
But now, what he is thinking about is how to enjoy life in the future, how many luxury houses he should buy, how many luxury cars he should buy, how many... no, how many beautiful women he should date!
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded and sat at the dining table.
"Nine Star Gang, any news?"
"Yes, after Song Hongji returned to the Nine Stars Gang, he said that Qiu Buyu was killed and Qiu Shangxi's whereabouts were unknown... The people in the Nine Stars Gang's Elders Council were skeptical of Song Hongji's statement and formed a revenge group, one to avenge Qiu Buyu, and the other to investigate the whole incident."
"The Presbyterian Church?"
Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment.
"Well, the Nine Stars Gang has an elders council, with a total of twelve elders! These elders are all veterans of the Nine Stars Gang, and they are the old brothers who followed the previous boss! Later, after Qiu Buyu took over, they joined the elders council. They usually don't take care of things, but any major events of the Nine Stars Gang will be discussed in the elders council!"
The fat man explained.
"So, this Council of Elders has considerable power in the Nine Stars Gang?"
"Well, Qiu Buyu is quite respectful to the elders of the Council of Elders, so the Council of Elders has considerable power... However, it must be noted that their power was granted by Qiu Buyu. Now that the Nine Stars Gang is headed by Song Hongji, it is not certain whether their power will be restricted."
"Even if they are restricted, they can't be restricted much! Song Hongji has just taken office and what he wants is stability. If he attacks the Council of Elders, the Nine Stars Gang will be even more chaotic, which is not conducive to his control! By the way, do the elders of the Council of Elders have real power? In other words, do they have people under their command?"
"Yes, they are all old brothers from the past, and they have their own group of people! The most important thing is that some of the current senior brothers of the Nine Stars Gang used to hang out with these elders! I think Qiu Buyu respected them very much in the past, and this was also the reason!"
Hearing what the fat man said, Xiao Chen's eyes lit up. It seems that this Elder Council is really awesome!
Well, that's a force that can be harnessed!
In addition, the fact that they remained skeptical and proposed the establishment of a revenge group showed that most of them supported Qiu Buyu, otherwise, how could they possibly investigate!
"Old Yin, wait for me to check the names and various information of the twelve elders of the Council of Elders. The more detailed the better."
"I see."
The fat man nodded.
"Besides this Council of Elders, what about other aspects of the Nine Stars Gang?"
"A new emperor appoints new ministers. After Qiu Buyu came to power, he promoted many people, including his trusted brothers! Now, after Qiu Buyu got into trouble, many of the senior brothers are clamoring to avenge him!"
"This Qiu Buyu is very capable. He was able to get rid of the old ministers and bring them to the Council of Elders, and he also satisfied them, and then promoted a group of new ministers..."
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"Well, Qiu Buyu is a very capable person! Back then, the Nine Stars Gang was not so big, and there was no force that could be its enemy! But after Qiu Buyu came to power, in just three years, he eliminated the Nine Stars Gang's biggest enemy and became a powerful force that dominated the country of South Korea!"
The fat man said with some admiration.
"Last time I heard Qiu Shangxi say that he and Song Hongji are sworn brothers, right?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked.
"Yes, Qiu Buyu had five sworn brothers back then. Four of them died in the war, leaving only Song Hongji! Therefore, Qiu Buyu trusted Song Hongji very much and made him the second-in-command of the Jiuxing Gang! But I didn't expect that this guy had such evil ambitions that he actually killed Qiu Buyu!"
"It's indeed a wolfish ambition."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"It was also because Qiu Buyu trusted Song Hongji too much that he was killed... Otherwise, Song Hongji would not have had the opportunity, nor the ability."
The fat man said in a deep voice.
"Qiu Buyu has been a powerful figure for many years, but he failed to judge people accurately, and ended up like this."
Xiao Chen shook his head, sighing.
The two chatted while finishing their breakfast.
After simply packing up, the two left their residence.
Before leaving, the fat man looked back and said, "I will never make a fake certificate again. This time, I will definitely be rich and prosperous!"
"Oh, I will."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Walk!"
The fat man stepped on the accelerator and sped towards Shouyan.
On the road, military vehicles would set up checkpoints from time to time, constantly checking something.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen was well prepared, and the two of them did not encounter any trouble and headed straight for Shouyan.
After a few hours' journey, at around three o'clock in the afternoon, they entered the territory of Shouyan.
"We have arrived at Shouyan."
The fat man said something.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded and gave an address.
After the fat man set up the navigation, he arrived at the place Xiao Chen mentioned in about half an hour.
"Is that so? That's the university town over there."
The fat man looked around and asked.
"Yes, this is it."
Xiao Chen nodded.
A few minutes later, the two parked the car in front of an apartment building.
Xiao Chen took out his cell phone and called Qiu Shangxi.
"Hey, Xiao Chen, are you here?"
Qiu Shangxi asked as soon as the phone was connected.
"Yes, we're here. We're downstairs. Which floor?"
"Wait, I'll pick you up right away."
"good."
Soon, Qiu Shangxi came out of the apartment building.
"Xiao Chen."
Qiu Shangxi looked at Xiao Chen and smiled.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. After not seeing her for a few days, the girl looked thinner.
Come to think of it, his father was killed and he was in danger, and he also had to think about how to get revenge. How could he not lose weight?
"Qiuzi, didn't you see me?"
The fat man looked at Qiu Shangxi and couldn't help but shout.
"Oh, Fatty, you're here too."
Qiu Shangxi nodded to the fat man, then looked away.
“…”
The fat guy was speechless. His presence was too weak!
"Where are Bai Sixuan and the others? Are you the only one here?"
Xiao Chen asked.
"Well, they went to school and won't be back for a while... Come on, don't stand down there, let's go upstairs and talk."
"good."
The three of them went upstairs and came to their residence.
This is a three-bedroom apartment. Bai Sixuan and Jiang Suoying each live in one room. Originally, one room was empty, and after Qiu Shangxi came, he moved in.
Xiao Chen looked around. Although the house was not too big, it was very clean and warm.
"Qiuzi, are you used to being here these days?"
"There's nothing to get used to. I'm from Shouyan."
Qiu Shangxi poured two glasses of water, placed them on the table, then sat opposite and looked at Xiao Chen.
These past few days, she hasn't been able to truly let go!
She was worried that Xiao Chen would ignore her.
Now that she saw Xiao Chen, she finally felt relieved.
This man is coming!
"Yeah, that's right."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Xiao Chen, where are your brothers?"
"They...returned to China."
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"oh."
Qiu Shangxi felt that Xiao Chen's mood seemed a little off, but he didn't dare to ask more.
"Qiuzi, let's talk business."
Xiao Chen took a sip of water and looked at the fat man.
"Tell me the latest news about the Nine Star Gang."
"good."
The fat man nodded and repeated the information he had found out.
After listening to this, Qiu Shangxi frowned: "So, Song Hongji has actually taken control of the Nine Stars Gang?"
"Well, you can say that, but there are still voices of opposition."
After the fat man finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Chen.
"Once Xiao Chen's plan is implemented, I think there will be more voices of opposition within the Nine Stars Gang."
"What's the plan?"
Qiu Shangxi asked curiously.
"It's actually very simple. Let the world know what Song Hongji did!"
Xiao Chen said lightly.
"Then what?"
"By then, your father's supporters and other ambitious people will definitely take action!"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Qiu Shangxi's eyes lit up slightly.
"Besides that, I also got the OC faction to join in."
"OC faction? What does that mean?"
"They will help you regain control of the Nine Stars Gang."
"Hmm? The leader of the Nine Stars Gang is Cui Shimin, right? He is a ruthless businessman who won't give up until he sees the rabbit. How could he agree to help me?"
Qiu Shangxi was surprised.
"He didn't want to help, but he had to."
The fat man said with a smile.
"What's the meaning?"
"Qiuzi, let me tell you what we did last night!"
The fat man grinned and recounted what happened last night.
Hearing this, Qiu Shangxi widened his eyes and looked at Xiao Chen.
Seeing Qiu Shangxi just staring at Xiao Chen, the fat man couldn't help but feel shocked. Why was he just ignoring him?
It seems like there’s no hope of hooking up with this girl!
Forget it, let’s not worry about Qiu Shangxi. I guess something must be going on between these two!
Once you become powerful, you can have as many beautiful girls as you want!
