Chapter 337 Greenwich
After the World Underworld Gathering, the L Family suddenly announced tragic news: the current head of the family had suddenly fallen ill and died. The old head of the family had returned to preside over family affairs.
The specific details were glossed over, and Rex's death was glossed over.
Everyone who watched the gambling game knew the hidden story behind it, but everyone chose to keep their mouths shut and keep the stories to themselves.
After all, if this kind of news leaks out and people find out that it came from your mouth, you might end up in fatal trouble.
The best policy is to keep it tacit.
A month after the underworld gathering, the two major gangs, the White and Green Society and Tavia, simultaneously announced that they would marry the two organizers of Hermes. In order to announce the marriage news, a press conference was specially held.
Now the gangs knew that these two gangs would probably never fight each other again.
A top wealthy family with a century-old foundation in Asia, and the most powerful mafia gang in Europe, these two underworld giants who can trigger an intercontinental war, will probably have to shake hands and make peace in the future.
But... the strange thing is that from the announcement of the marriage to the end of the press conference, there were only those two women at the press conference from beginning to end.
Moreover, a month has passed since the press conference, and so far, neither of the two big bosses has appeared.
This matter was widely rumored on the streets, with people speculating about where the two leaders had gone. Could it be that they were unwilling to see each other? But on closer inspection, that didn't seem to be the case...
The real reason behind this is probably only known by the protagonists of our story.
The dove of peace flew over the Thames, and the prime meridian passed through the center of Greenwich, where the world's longitude began.
The 0 degree longitude is the standard for defining time, and the four seasons rotate through time, remaining unchanged forever.
The minstrel continued to travel around with his accordion.
Every evening, you can hear them reciting poems in their old, out-of-tune voices, telling people that the Aegean Sea can be crossed on foot.
Horse-drawn carriages from the Governor's era can still be heard rumbling through the cobblestone alleys.
They come from stories that are old and termite-eaten.
"Tap, tap."
And at the moment when everything returned to calm, it disappeared again in the endless time.
——*——
London, UK.
Greenwich Mean Time, March 10, 10:00.
The main house of the L family, on the top floor of the castle.
In the center of a room full of people who are either cold and arrogant or solemn, there is a figure who is as arrogant as an emperor.
These dragon-like and phoenix-like characters surrounded this domineering man, all of them were respectful but also a little afraid.
"Master Cheng...that..." Lei Ya lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Cheng Yi. "Our boss, let me take you to find her."
The man's oppressive feeling was too strong. No matter how much time passed, Lei Ya didn't dare to look into his eyes.
"Got it," Cheng Yi waved his hand lazily, "I'll go there soon."
When everyone except Lei Ya saw Cheng Yi's gesture, they all retreated respectfully.
After the room was empty, he was the only one left in the room, with the shivering Reya waiting beside him.
However, it was only then that people realized that this wild and domineering man was actually sitting in... a wheelchair?!
In the gambling game two months ago, although the poison was removed, the neurotoxin remained in Cheng Yi's body for too long, causing some nerves to be paralyzed, and it will take some time to recover.
So that means our boss Cheng’s left leg is now paralyzed and he can only use a wheelchair.
Cheng Yi put down the documents in his hand and asked Lei Ya in a deep voice, "Where is your boss?"
It took so much trouble to find him, don’t you know that he has difficulty moving around now?
Lei Ya shuddered violently and answered hesitantly, "Our boss...she didn't say anything, she just asked me to take you there."
Cheng Yi pursed his lips and didn't ask any more questions, "Let's go, take me there."
Lei Ya pushed Cheng Yi to the lobby on the first floor of the castle, and coincidentally, ran into Takeshita Haru and Bai Yao.
The two men's eyes met in the air, and a flame as hot as boiling oil was instantly ignited.
Bai Yao sneered and Cheng Yi had a cold face.
Lei Ya and Takeshita Haru beside them were not so calm. Now they couldn't leave or stay, so they could only stay beside the two bosses and tremble in fear.
Bai Yao pushed his glasses and first withdrew his gaze, an inexplicable smile appearing on his weird face.
"Your leg won't be paralyzed for life, will it?"
Cheng Yi naturally did not give in. He raised his cold and arrogant eyebrows slightly and smiled very calmly.
"My case will be fine once the poison is removed, but you should be careful, as you could be crippled for life."
That's right, why did Takeshita Haru stay by Bai Yao's side? Because our boss Bai is also in a wheelchair!
At that time, he jumped off the cliff to save Qu Le, and Qu Le was unharmed, but Bai Yao was not so lucky. He broke his right leg in the process of survival.
He has been using a wheelchair for two months along with our boss Cheng, and will probably have to do so for another month.
Cheng Yi glanced at Bai Yao coldly and continued to attack: "From now on, you will not only be blind, but also lame."
Bai Yao's face twitched, and he suppressed the unsightly corner of his mouth, snorting coldly: "My injury is at least a bone injury, be careful of yours, it is easy to leave some unspeakable sequelae."
When Cheng Yi heard this, his expression turned ugly.
The two men continued to shoot cold blades from a distance, and neither of them showed any intention of retreating.
Takeshita Haru and Reiya looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
Neither of these two people let the other go.
