Jiangzhou, Tangchen Villa District.
This place is the well-known luxury villa area in Jiangzhou, located in the golden district along the Huangpu River bank. The surrounding scenery and transportation are exceptionally beautiful.
But the prices of the villas here are also incredibly shocking. Even so billionaires may not afford them because the lowest-priced one currently is worth two hundred million.
The reason there's no highest price is mainly that once these villas are bought, almost nobody sells them. Each owner is a super-wealthy individual with a net worth of several billion.
That villa priced at two hundred million was sold low-key only because it involved the downfall of so major figures, and the owner himself went abroad, not daring to return, cashing in on the villa, which is why there's such a price.
It's said that just the annual property fee for these luxury hos here is enough to buy a pretty decent house in this tropolis, Jiangzhou.
At this mont, at the entrance of a considerably large and picturesque villa in the center of the villa area, a sturdy-looking man is kneeling in front.
The ground is paved with cobblestones, uneven, and a typical person walking a round on them barefoot wouldn't feel too much, but soone with a frailer body would definitely feel severe pain under their feet.
However, this man is on his knees, with his kneecaps directly on such a surface, so one can imagine the pain he is enduring.
Not only that, but even though it's past the New Year, the weather is still very cold, especially since Jiangzhou is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River. The intertwining river and sea winds make the temperature here frighteningly cold.
Yet, this man is only wearing a thin coat, which provides barely any warmth in this biting wind…
He has already been kneeling here for a long ti, and the wind blowing makes his slightly stiff body struggle. His face is deathly pale, and his lips are cracked, making him look like he might collapse at any mont…
"Green Wolf, co in..."
After a long ti passed, the door of the villa finally opened, and an elderly man in his fifties ca out, looked at the man kneeling on the ground, sighed lightly, but nonetheless said this.
Indeed, this man who has been kneeling here for so long is none other than the manager of Drunken River South, Green Wolf, also the Fen Tang Tangzhu of The Green Gang in Jiangzhou, intimidated by Qin Fang not to act.
In Jiangzhou, Green Wolf is considered a notable figure; he doesn't take ordinary people seriously, not even soone like Wu Tang, the captain of the city's police departnt, even with the Mayor's connections, he still dares to disregard.
But at this mont, such a powerful character had to kneel here, even almost frozen to death… one can imagine how formidable the identity of the villa's owner must be.
"Yes..."
Upon hearing the old man's call, Green Wolf slowly raised his head, responding softly, seemingly using all his strength.
The old man didn't say much more, nor did he order anyone to help. He directly turned and walked back into the villa, but the villa doors remained open, allowing Green Wolf to enter if he wished.
But the problem is… it's extrely difficult for Green Wolf just to stand up now!
His knees were completely numb from kneeling, his body was frozen stiff for so long, and he couldn't muster any strength at all…
Nevertheless, Green Wolf dared not act arrogantly. He almost gritted his teeth, pinching himself hard to force his legs to slowly stand upright. Only then did he manage to stand, although he still looked shaky, as if he might collapse at any mont.
He has been kneeling here for so long for this opportunity right in front of him. If he misses this chance, he will never get another.
Even though coming here to seek an opportunity didn't guarantee escaping this ordeal, if he gave up this opportunity, he definitely wouldn't escape. Perhaps by tomorrow morning, soone would find his body in the Huangpu River…
This is absolutely no joke!
Green Wolf might consider himself a figure, but in the eyes of certain people, he's nothing…
They can grant him such status and effortlessly strip it away, easily replacing him in his position!
Green Wolf gritted his teeth, stood straight, and without waiting to slowly adapt, he began to walk with stiff steps towards the inside of the villa.
The pace was not fast, but one foot followed another, continuously approaching the large door… it just required a bit of ti to get in completely.
However, while the villa door was open, no one ca to greet or block him, nor did anyone urge him, as if there was nobody inside.
As Green Wolf walked, he gradually recovered, his legs slowly returned to normal, though his face still looked quite pale from the extre cold outside.
Once Green Wolf's legs recovered, his speed increased significantly, taking large strides as he entered the door and walked into the villa's living room.
This villa is decorated in a classic Dragon Country style, and the interior looks more like an ancient grand house, with most of the decoration being wooden.
The tables and chairs have an ancient charm about them, appearing as if they are antiquities, clearly showing their age. Most are made of redwood, and so from huanghuali wood, all treasures worth a fortune, yet here they are rely ordinary furniture.
If any esteed collector had co by, they would certainly have cursed a few tis at this wastefulness; even the slightest chip or damage to any of these casually placed treasures would be heartbreaking.
"Boss Kui..."
However, Green Wolf's attention wasn't on these items. As soon as he entered, he imdiately walked to the center of the living room, where an old man was already seated leisurely sipping tea, and respectfully greeted him.
"We're all on the sa side here, no need for such formalities, have a seat..."
The old man didn't even lift his head, still savoring his tea, while the old man who previously opened the door for Green Wolf stood to the side behind him.
Though he hadn't looked up, he casually said this, gesturing to the chair beside him.
"Yes..."
Although nervous, Green Wolf sat down properly, almost like a child, appearing extrely obedient. Even as he sat, he only perched partially on the seat, not daring to sit all the way.
"Tell , what exactly happened?"
Boss Kui continued sipping his tea, his gaze shifting between the tea leaves in his cup and the ring on his finger, still not looking at Green Wolf as he spoke very calmly.
"Yes! Here's what happened..."
Green Wolf didn't dare be reckless, earnestly recounting today's events at Drunken River South, even investigating the events thoroughly.
Naturally, regarding how Qin Fang used a deadly aura to corner him into releasing soone, he didn't dare to conceal a thing.
Telling the truth might offer a sliver of chance, but if he dared to hide anything at this mont, the outco would definitely be unbearable... Of this, Green Wolf was more aware than anyone.
"Oh? I didn't expect such a young expert... Not bad, not bad! Just wonder which sect's young disciple he is..."
Boss Kui listened quietly, his expression unchanged, his tone also without significant changes, only when ntioning "sect" did his tone change slightly.
"Green Wolf, you did well in this matter, I know now, you can go back..."
Boss Kui lifted his head at this mont, waving his hand at Green Wolf, speaking very indifferently as if reluctant to see him stay here any longer.
"Yes, Boss Kui..."
Green Wolf's body a bit stiff, unclear of Boss Kui's intentions; having mixed in the Green Gang for so many years, Boss Kui's temper was famously unpredictable.
Though his words now seed pleasing, it might turn into direct confrontation... Such things had happened not just once or twice.
Despite knowing this, Green Wolf clearly didn't dare show any dissatisfaction, imdiately and respectfully bade farewell to Boss Kui, slowly walking towards the door.
"Sigh, leave it to fate then..."
Upon exiting, he closed the villa door again, but couldn't help sighing inwardly, as the consequences he might face next would depend on Boss Kui's mood.
"Alai, what do you think of this matter?"
Characters like Green Wolf naturally didn't catch Boss Kui's eye; the reason for sending him away was rely not to let him hear things he shouldn't.
"I can't tell..."
Alai, the old man standing behind Boss Kui, seed to be a trusted associate, similar to Uncle Fu at Gambling King He's side.
Yet, in response to Boss Kui's question, Alai slightly shook his head and replied.
"I can't tell either..."
Boss Kui didn't seem surprised by Alai's answer, even agreeing with it, clearly finding the whole matter sowhat elusive.
"The young master seems to have gone over, looking for the young man nad Qin Fang..."
Yet, Alai suddenly said these words unexpectedly.
"What's he going for?"
Boss Kui slightly frowned, showing quite a bit of dissatisfaction with this, his tone carrying a trace of displeasure.
"Rest assured, there's Ah Hu accompanying the young master, nothing will happen..."
Alai chuckled, seemingly not concerned, as if with Ah Hu around, nobody could possibly touch the young master...(To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote for it at Qidian (qidian) with recomndation and monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation.)
