Chapter 706: Chapter 654: Storm Brewing
“Liu Hun! It’s my fault! I didn’t instruct the brothers properly!” Zhong Xiao said from the side.
Liu Hun waved his hand, “It’s not your fault! If it weren’t for your foresight to have soone keep an eye on the nursing ho, we probably wouldn’t even know about this incident.” After saying this, Liu Hun paused, then asked Zhong Xiao, “Have you found out about those guys from Wan Chai? Why did they take away the director and Qi Gongru? Is it related to Lin Feng and his group?”
“I imdiately had Wang Laizi call you as soon as I received the ssage, and I instructed all the branches to gather information. It’s been about half an hour now, so we should be hearing sothing soon,” Zhong Xiao said to Liu Hun, his schedule was very tight.
Liu Hun knew that Zhong Xiao had done everything he could, all they could do now was wait patiently, but it had been a long ti since last night, and he was most concerned about whether Qi Gongru might have run into trouble in the anti.
“Ding ding ding… ding ding ding…” At that mont, Zhong Xiao’s phone began to ring.
Zhong Xiao answered the phone and demanded, “Speak!”
“Brother Zhong! At four o’clock this morning, a client from Wan Chai visited Lan Hua on Temple Street. He complained about the client’s violent tendencies which were overheard by one of my n. Not sure if this is the person you’re looking for,” the voice of the person in charge of the Temple Street branch ca through the phone.
“Do you know where this Wan Chai guy is now?” Zhong Xiao asked through the phone.
“I’ve sent brothers to check; we should know very soon,” the person in charge told Zhong Xiao.
“Hurry up! You know my patience is limited!” Zhong Xiao said, then hung up the phone, and recounted the entire conversation to Liu Hun verbatim.
The three of them continued to sit at the table waiting, and after about seven or eight minutes, Zhong Xiao’s phone rang again.
“Did you find him?!” Zhong Xiao asked as he picked up the phone.
“We found him! One of my guys saw the Wan Chai guy entering a private club called Ming Shi,” the person in charge said on the phone.
“Ming Shi Club!” Zhong Xiao imdiately hung up and said to Liu Hun.
“Exactly, exactly! That’s the club those three entered!” Wang Laizi told them.
“Liu Hun! I’ll call people right away!” Zhong Xiao said, standing up and imdiately starting to make calls.
“Wait!” Liu Hun, who was initially anxious, suddenly cald down and said to Zhong Xiao, “This matter isn’t suitable for you to handle, I’ll have the police deal with it! You take people and block the Ming Shi Club! Don’t let even an ant escape!”
Liu Hun pressed Zhong Xiao, then imdiately called Yang Xinrui, instructing her to raid the Ming Shi Club on kidnapping charges. With Zhong Xiao’s help, Yang Xinrui led the police to catch the club unawares. What Liu Hun didn’t expect was that the private club was registered jointly by Lin Feng and Qu Jiaron – obviously a den for their indulgence.
Yang Xinrui’s raid not only captured two illegally smuggled individuals from Wan Chai but also rescued Qi Gongru and the director, saving Qi Gongru from a cruel fate while the director remained unhard. Yang Xinrui also made another significant discovery: contraband drugs, entertainnt paraphernalia, and several won in the Ming Shi Club.
“I didn’t expect it to be so filthy here,” Yang Xinrui said with a stern face to Liu Hun, “Should we detain and arrest them now and proceed with the lawsuit?”
“No! Hold off! Gather all the evidence first!” Liu Hun told Yang Xinrui, he already had a comprehensive plan and deploynt in mind.
Gongru, looking disheveled, was escorted to the police car. Liu Hun arranged for Yang Zihuan to temporarily take care of her, hoping the cheerful Yang Zihuan could comfort her. Once Gongru was settled, Liu Hun then found Wen Li, unclear why the Wan Chai were targeting her.
After seeing Liu Hun, Wen Li felt much more settled and then Liu Hun asked, “Director Wen, why would the Wan Chai target the nursing ho?”
“It’s not just those Wan Chai! It’s that real estate group!” Wen Li said with a bitter smile, seeing so confusion on Liu Hun’s face, she continued, “I’m talking about our nursing ho’s relocation.”
“Oh!” Liu Hun imdiately understood, suddenly asking, “You an that plot of land! Are you saying this has to do with that land?!”
“Yes! It’s about that land! The issue of that land has been pending, and I still hold the deeds. Now they’ve barbarically started so construction work and want to get the deeds from .”
So that’s how it is! Liu Hun imdiately understood and thought to himself that the drama needed a bit more spice. He then said to Wen Li with a smile, “I wonder if Dean Wen would be willing to sell that land to ?”
Wen Li forced a smile and replied, “Mr. Liu, please stop joking. I don’t even own that land. If you bought the deed, you’d only be digging your own grave.”
“This deed might be useless or even a hot potato in your hands,” Liu Hun told Wen Li, “but in my hands, it has significant value! All you need to do is nod in agreent to sell it to . Don’t worry, Dean Wen, I won’t let you suffer any losses.”
Wen Li pondered for a mont but still worried about implicating Liu Hun further and asked, “Mr. Liu, are you serious?”
Liu Hun earnestly nodded and replied, “Of course, I am! I, Liu Hun, always an what I say!”
Considering that Liu Hun insisted on buying the land and that she could resolve the matter, Wen Li finally nodded and agreed, “Mr. Liu, you are a good man! I hope this land won’t bring you any trouble!”
“Don’t worry! It definitely won’t!” Liu Hun assured Dean Wen with a smile. He felt that avoiding trouble for others was a good deed, who would dare cause him trouble.
Two days later, a notable wedding was held between the Lin and Qu families, prominent groups in Hong Kong, celebrating Lin ixin and Qu Jiarong’s union.
In the groom’s resting room, Qu Jiarong, Lin Feng, and Tony were having a lively conversation.
“Brother-in-law! You wouldn’t believe how many journalists and dia outlets ca today! They really honored our families,” Lin Feng said, standing beside Qu Jiarong.
Qu Jiarong, thrilled, barely held back his laughter and said, “After the wedding, I will have complete control over Liheng Group’s future ventures — married and imdiately head of the family! It’s ti we changed the na of Liheng Group!”
Lin Feng never anticipated his future brother-in-law’s imnse ambition, but being from another prominent family, he could relate to the difficulty of living under his father’s shadow.
Tony, sipping his wine, watched Qu Jiarong gloating. The sight nearly made him laugh, but one thing had been troubling him, he couldn’t understand why, since their engagent day, Lin ixin had consistently rejected him.
Hmph! Won are so cheap! Once I take over both groups, I’ll control all these won! Tony thought bitterly.
“Tony, when is Josephine arriving?” Qu Jiarong asked, eager to et this exotic beauty.
Tony glanced at his watch and replied, “She should be here soon!” He wasn’t particularly interested in his own wife; he always thought wildflowers slled sweeter than ho blossoms.
“Brother-in-law, these dia folks were invited by your family, right?” Lin Feng asked Qu Jiarong, more concerned about getting his chance in the lilight.
“Of course! Our families’ union has shaken all of Hong Kong! Who wouldn’t pay attention? Plus, the “Skies and Waters” project is a cornerstone for our families’ progress! We must create great montum!” Qu Jiarong responded, becoming more excited and increasingly assured of a bright and smooth future.
As the three of them were enjoying their chat, suddenly a flurry of hurried knocks sounded at the door.
“Who’s panicking like that? Absolutely unseemly!” Qu Jiarong exclaid irritably, feeling quite the part of the sect leader, always needing to maintain certain standards.
Qu Jiarong opened the door with a scowl, heart skipping a beat, “Big Black! What are you doing here?!”
The figure standing before them was Big Black, who helped Lin Feng and Qu Jiarong manage their private club, usually soone who wouldn’t appear here nor contact them directly. His presence indicated trouble.
“Boss! Sothing terrible has happened!” Big Black wiped the sweat from his forehead as he spoke.
Qu Jiarong, alard, imdiately pulled Big Black inside then checked for any followers before shutting the door.
“Big Black! What are you doing here?” Lin Feng was also shocked to see Qu Jiarong pulling Big Black inside.
Big Black, visibly distraught, explained, “Bosses! It’s a disaster! The police raided our club! The Dean and Qi Gongru were both saved by the police! Our… our usual stuff has been seized by the police!”
“What?” Tony, although not an owner of the club, had been there and knew what was inside. Such items were illegal in any country.
“I… I don’t know what happened! The cops just stord in! We were blocked from both ends, no way to run!” Big Black explained to the threeso.
“When did this happen? Why are you only telling now?” Qu Jiarong shouted at Big Black.
Big Black awkwardly told Qu Jiarong, “It happened two days ago! Everyone was caught, I only escaped because I ran into a cop friend!”
