The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this!
Everyone's expression changed drastically, and they were no longer chatting and laughing as before; a tense atmosphere quickly spread.
Apart from Ye Chen, everyone's eyes were on Hong Sihai.
Especially those guys who secretly have close ties with Hong Yi.
They understood perfectly what Hong Sihai meant by those words.
The situation tonight is definitely on the verge of exploding and cannot be resolved peacefully.
A cold glint flashed in Hong Yi's eyes, then he smiled and said, "Godfather, I don't quite understand what you mean by that."
Hong Sihai stared at Hong Yi and snorted coldly, saying, "The literal meaning is that someone is not content with the status quo and wants to take my place."
Hong Sihai glanced around at everyone, emanating a powerful aura.
"Who is it? Who has the audacity to try to replace my godfather?"
Hong Sihai sneered and his gaze fell on Hong Yi.
“Hong Yi, besides you, who else here has such audacity?”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes turned to Hong Yi.
A fierce glint flashed in Hong Yi's eyes, followed by a loud laugh.
“Hong Yi, you’ve had this idea of replacing me for a long time now.”
"The blood jade you gave me was problematic in itself."
"I must say your plan was very meticulous; I didn't even notice it."
"If it weren't for Master Ye's intervention, I would have died a violent death."
At this point, a cold glint flashed across Hong Sihai's face.
"Master Ye ruined your plans, so you sent someone to assassinate Master Ye."
“If Master Ye hadn’t come to me to explain this matter, I really wouldn’t have believed that you could be so vicious.”
"I am your godfather."
The expressions of those present changed, especially those on Hong Sihai's side.
They were furious and glared angrily at Hong Yi.
"Later, I sent people to investigate secretly, and it turned out that some people in the Sihai Group had been bribed by you."
"So I know you're trying to force me to resign."
"I stripped you of your power and transferred you away from the Sihai Group, all to make you uneasy."
"It seems to be working quite well tonight."
Now that his plan had been exposed, Hong Yi simply stopped pretending and coldly laughed, "Godfather, I didn't expect you to find out in the end."
"Hongyi, I have always treated you well, why would you do this?"
Hong Sihai looked at Hong Yi and said coldly.
"Why? How dare you even ask why?"
"I, Hong Yi, have made outstanding contributions to the Sihai Group."
"But how did you treat me?"
"You've never let your guard down around me; you've always been on guard against me."
"On the surface, I am your adopted son, but in reality, I am just a pawn in your game."
Why should I remain subservient to you for so long?
"So I want to replace you, I want to completely control the Sihai Group."
"I want to be the king of Jingzhou's underworld," Hong Yi said menacingly.
At this point, Hong Yi glared at Ye Chen.
"If it weren't for you ruining my plans, I would have taken control of the Sihai Group by now."
"I originally planned to kill my godfather before settling scores with you."
"I never expected my godfather to invite you to tonight's farewell party."
"Perfect timing, I'll wipe you all out tonight."
“Hong Yi, you are a truly ungrateful wretch, your heart is despicable.”
“Hongyi, if it weren’t for Fourth Master taking pity on you and adopting you as his son, you would have died a violent death in the wilderness, with no place to be buried.”
Hong Sihai's side angrily denounced him.
Hong Yi sneered. He had long since lost his humanity; everyone thinks that if a person doesn't look out for themselves, they will be punished by heaven and earth.
"Shut up, all of you!" Hong Yi roared angrily, his eyes radiating a chilling aura.
"It's no use saying all this now."
"Those who obey me prosper, those who oppose me perish."
"If you submit to me, I may spare your lives."
"Or you can all go to hell."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Yi smashed the cup in his hand.
"Godfather, you can't blame me for all this. It's all your fault for being ungrateful."
Hong Yi burst into wild laughter.
He and his conspirators had agreed that he would smash the cup as a signal, and all those lying in ambush would rush into the room.
However, after a dozen seconds, apart from the people Hong Yi had with him, there was no sign of any other ambushers.
Hong Yi immediately frowned; something seemed amiss.
Hong Sihai sneered, adopting a posture of being in control of the situation.
"Hong Yi, aren't you wondering why the person who promised to help you hasn't shown up?"
Hong Sihai looked at Hong Yi with a cold smile.
"While you were plotting, I was also plotting."
"You think I'm a sitting duck, but little do you know you're the one in the duck's nest."
"Don't even imagine those people will appear."
"Because I have already sent people to deal with them, so why don't you just surrender?"
Hong Yi's expression changed, his face turning as black as charcoal.
He never expected that Hong Sihai would completely resolve the issue of his assistance.
"Hong Yi, kneel down now!"
Wang Biao pointed at Hong Yi and shouted angrily.
"And you traitors too."
Those high-ranking officials who secretly associated with Hong Yi panicked, their legs went weak, and they immediately knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Fourth Master, this has nothing to do with me. It was all Hong Yi's doing."
“He framed me and then used that to blackmail me.”
"Fourth Master, it's not that I wanted to betray you, but Hong Yi threatened me with the safety of my family, so I had no choice but to do this."
The high-ranking officials kneeling on the ground begged for mercy.
They placed all the blame on Hong Yi, and angrily denounced him as insidious and despicable.
