However, as Xiang Zheng was left shocked by the news, he couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled inside.
Because he saw sothing deeper.
The news was simply too bizarre. The Huo and Rong Families, prestigious and well-known throughout all of Huaxia, were colossal entities in Hong Kong.
Yet, these two influential families were wiped out in a single night, which was utterly inconceivable!!!
What kind of power, or rather what kind of existence, could accomplish such a feat?
If it were the Li Family, but just a few days ago, the Li Family seed to be in a tough position due to the pressure from the Huo and Rong Families.
Logically speaking, if the Li Family had that strength, they should have dealt with the Huo and Rong Families long ago, rather than being in such a bad situation just a few days prior.
Thus, surely, so great figure intervened!!!
Moreover, one with the capability to overthrow these two families, a colossal figure of such influence!!!
The more he thought about it, the more puzzled Xiang Zheng beca, and, for so reason, he couldn't help but think of the mysterious earthquake that occurred a couple of days ago and then thought of Ye Qiu.
Could it be, Ye Qiu...?
No, it shouldn't be possible...
Xiang Zheng quickly dismissed this hypothesis because it was simply too unbelievable.
But on closer thought, the Huo and Rong Families had collapsed overnight yesterday, and Ye Qiu just happened to be visited by the Li Family brothers and then went out, the timing was just right.
So, if Ye Qiu was related to this matter, it wasn't impossible.
Just as Xiang Zheng was sowhat conflicted and anxiously speculating, people arrived outside the villa.
And those who arrived were precisely the three brothers of the Li Family!!!
This surprised everyone who was discussing the Li Family affairs. Wasn't this the saying, "speak of Cao Cao and Cao Cao appears"?
Lv Huan reacted the fastest. Seeing the three Li Family brothers outside, her eyes lit up, and she imdiately revealed a charming smile, greeting them in a coquettish voice, "Young Master Li, you've arrived~!"
"Young Master Li, may I ask what brings you here?"
At this mont, Xiang Zheng also quickly put aside his doubts and similarly ca forward, ingratiatingly fawning over the three Li Family brothers.
After all, the Li Family was now the top family in Hong Kong, and cozying up to the three Li Family brothers could not go wrong.
Lv Huan had the sa thought: as long as she could snare one of the Li Family mbers as a golden groom, she could certainly soar to the top and beco a Phoenix, the idea itself was thrilling.
Aside from Xiang Zheng and Lv Huan, even Song Sisi's other friends felt a bit nervous looking at the three Li Family brothers.
After all, the identity of the three Li Family brothers now put them under significant pressure.
However, Song Sisi's friends didn't know that, in fact, the ones under the most pressure upon arriving at Ye Qiu's villa were Li Hai and his brothers.
Because this ti, they had co with a mission entrusted to them by the patriarch of the Li Family, and the consequences of failing were unimaginable.
So, the three brothers of the Li Family, with a hint of nervousness, quickly asked Song Sisi: "Miss Song, is Mr. Ye ho?"
"Ye Qiu is in his room; I'll go and call him for you."
Since every visit from the three Li Family brothers was to find Ye Qiu, Song Sisi was not surprised and said this as she went upstairs to call Ye Qiu.
"Young Master Li, have so tea."
While waiting in the hall, Xiang Zheng and Lv Huan continued trying to please Li Hai and the others by serving tea.
Soon, Ye Qiu ca downstairs.
"Mr. Ye!"
"Brother Ye!"
Seeing Ye Qiu, Li Hai and the others imdiately stood up, nervously greeting him.
"So, have the matters of the Huo and Rong Families been settled?"
Looking at Li Hai and the others, Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow and asked calmly.
Upon hearing this, the three brothers of the Li Family quickly said to Ye Qiu: "We've basically taken over the overt enterprises of the Huo and Rong Families, but there are still many covert operations, of which we've discovered about half; the rest will probably take so more ti."
"And, here is the list of the industries we've taken over from the Huo and Rong Families. Mr. Ye, feel free to take whichever you like, as long as you leave a portion for our Li Family."
While speaking, Li Cheng took out a docunt, placed it on the table, and gave Ye Qiu a sincere smile.
Li Cheng didn't hide it; this was the Li Family's way of currying favor with and drawing in Ye Qiu, as instructed by the patriarch of the Li Family.
As long as they could win over Ye Qiu, never mind the Huo and Rong Families' properties, they would even be willing to offer half of their own family's industries to him.
After all, with soone as formidable as Ye Qiu, not only could they beco Hong Kong's number one family, but the Li Family could even advance further!!!
This was the Li Family's ambition.
However, the sincerity of the Li Family and Li Cheng's words left the nearby crowd utterly dumbfounded.
Did they hear correctly?
The docunt presented by the three brothers of the Li Family was what? A detailed account of the Huo and Rong Families' industries?
Ye Qiu could choose any he wanted? And there was no limit on the quantity?!! What did this imply, that they were gifting the imnse industries of the Huo and Rong Families to Ye Qiu as a present???
Xiang Zheng and the others felt their minds spinning a bit.
Especially Xiang Zheng and Lv Huan, who couldn't resist glancing at the docunt, and to their shock, each industry listed was several tis larger than Xiang Zheng's family business!!!
Moreover, there were a total of three pages of such industries, with a minimum of over two to three hundred listed...
What kind of concept was this, that the Li Family would offer hundreds of billions worth of assets to Ye Qiu?
Thinking this, Xiang Zheng and Lv Huan, and the others couldn't help but feel a bit breathless, nearly suffocating.
This was simply too overwhelming!!!
"The properties of the Huo and Rong Families?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu casually glanced at the docunt, showing little interest.
But as he spotted so industries listed, his expression suddenly turned cold.
Because among these industries, nearly half of the Huo and Rong Families' businesses involved casinos and drug trafficking in Southeast Asia, and many others were in collaboration with local and foreign underworld factions in Hong Kong.
However, it was no wonder, considering the Huo and Rong Families had beco established family dynasties in Hong Kong, they surely engaged in many such harmful dealings.
The Huo and Rong Families truly deserved their downfall!!!
