"This was sent by Bai Yifan." Tang Yung replied.
"That makes even more sense." Lin Chuan slapped his thigh with an expression of regret, saying, "If it were before, you would have definitely refused without hesitation, but now... you're actually accepting his red roses, oh my..."
The more Lin Chuan spoke, the more agitated he beca, as if overwheld by unbearable pain.
"You really are sothing." Tang Yung glared at Lin Chuan and said, "What about red roses? Can't red roses represent a pure friendship?"
Lin Chuan blinked, turned around, took the red roses out of the vase, and with a flick of his wrist, threw them into the trash can.
"You..." Tang Yung was shocked as she watched Lin Chuan, saying, "How could you do that?"
"Tomorrow I'll bring you so even prettier roses," Lin Chuan said, "These ones are almost wilting."
"They were just delivered this morning." Tang Yung pouted her red lips, saying, "You're not romantic at all, you never think about giving flowers."
"I said I'll bring you so tomorrow," Lin Chuan laughed.
"Forget about it," Tang Yung cald down and smiled, "Let's not cause a huge fuss about it, otherwise everyone at the City Committee will know about us, which would be troubleso."
"Alright," Lin Chuan nodded.
Tang Yung glanced at Lin Chuan, her lips quivered as she was about to inquire if Lin Chuan was hurt, but realizing that Lin Chuan might not yet know her true identity, she ultimately didn't ask.

At the Eight Horses Tea House, Feng Taibao has really been down on his luck recently, as they say, losing the wife and the army.
Currently, in a tea room at the Eight Horses Tea House, a group of people was gathered, including Long Wu and so of Feng Taibao's most loyal subordinates. These people were all civil entrepreneurs from Jiangbei City. So had assets worth tens of millions, with the least wealthy among them still owning several million.
"Boss, can you really swallow this humiliation?" Long Wu gritted his teeth, "Lin Chuan is getting too arrogant."
"Yes, Lin Chuan has gone too far.
The other loyal subordinates voiced their agreent.
Feng Taibao allowed them to discuss, but he himself was sipping tea from his chicken heart cup alone. The cup was crystal clear and extrely beautiful, a rare sight. Feng Taibao found great pleasure in its beauty, completely disregarding Lin Chuan's matter.
"What do you think about this cup?" Feng Taibao suddenly asked.
The crowd was surprised, unsure of what he ant as they looked puzzled.
"Nice, beautiful cup."
"Yes, yes, this cup is a porcelain from the Ming Dynasty, the peak of China's porcelain history. Very beautiful."
They kept praising, trying hard to use all possible complints for the splendor of the chicken heart cup in Feng Taibao's hand.
Crack…
Unexpectedly, Feng Taibao set down the cup, and it hit the ground, imdiately shattering into pieces. The room fell silent, packed with people yet none dared to make a sound, all stared in disbelief.
"Boss, this..." Long Wu awkwardly looked at Feng Taibao and said, "What is this...?"
"This cup, no matter how beautiful it was, in the end, it was just a cup," Feng Taibao sneered, "I wanted it to break, so it had to break. Lin Chuan may be cocky and formidable, but he is just an ordinary citizen. If I want him dead, he has to die."
Wow...
The crowd erupted.
"Boss is mighty!" Long Wu was the first to shout out loud.
"Boss is mighty, Boss is mighty!" Everyone else joined in the chanting.
Feng Taibao raised his hand, and everyone imdiately quieted down. He looked around the room and said, "We shouldn't focus on an ordinary citizen. We need to look further ahead. Like... taking down the Northeast Tiger. Seizing his territory."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and said, "Boss, what should we do?"
"Now, with three forces balanced in Jiangbei City, starting a war with the Northeast Tiger won't be easy," Long Wu said awkwardly.
"Yes, indeed." Everyone nodded in agreent.
Feng Taibao smiled and said, "You all are really too naive. I was only making an analogy."
The crowd was taken aback, asking, "Then... what does Mr. Feng an?"
"Lin Chuan's existence is indeed a huge threat to us," Feng Taibao started, "So, what we need to do now is to first wipe out the gang from Changlin Factory. We must let them know that it's not that simple to be involved in our world. We must take back the transport market; Haiqing Pool must also beco ours."
"That's... great." Long Wu, overco with emotion, spoke incoherently, "Damn it, every day I'm cowering in that market buying vegetables, collecting so protection money, and now I'm almost suffocating from frustration. Mr. Feng, you are finally willing to take back the transport market for ."
In the past, just by monopolizing the transport market for sand and cent, Long Wu could make millions easily in a year. Now, he has been reduced to a re vegetable vendor. Though he still engages in monopolization, this path is no longer viable. In the eastern city market, he monopolizes items like ginger and garlic, earning hundreds of thousands a year, yet it's less profitable than sand and cent.
With items like ginger and garlic, if you price them too high, people won't buy them, preferring to shop at nearby supermarkets or even grow their own. However, sand and cent are different. In the entire eastern city area, there's only my business; if you don't buy from , there's nowhere else to go. If you buy from outside the area or from another vendor, the buildings in the whole eastern city area are manned by our own people, your trucks won't be able to enter. If you think of renovating, you can't do it. And if you sohow manage to get it done, our underlings are not vegetarians; they can glue your lock shut with super glue the next day, making it impossible for you to access with a key.
"But if we move against Lin Chuan, won't the Northeastern Tiger..." Subordinates worriedly asked.
"Rest assured about that," Feng Taibao smiled, "Although Jiangbei City is an arena of three contenders, we can use one force against another."
"Mr. Feng, what do you an?" The crowd looked at Feng Taibao curiously.
"The Feiying Gang from the provincial capital," Feng Taibao said with narrowed eyes, "If we can get the Feiying Gang to take action and help us. Hehe..."
"Then there's no problem at all." As soon as the crowd heard this, they excitedly said, "If we can collaborate with the Feiying Gang, we don't have to fear the Northeastern Tiger anymore. And Lin Chuan would be even less of a concern."
"We need to carefully consider this matter," Feng Taibao smiled.
"But why would the Feiying Gang help us?" the subordinates asked one after another.
The Feiying Gang is a mid-sized gang in the provincial capital. In comparison to others, the strength of the Feiying Gang might not be significant, but with their willingness to step forward, Lin Chuan's followers would be completely trivial, and there would be no need to worry about a sneak attack from the people of the Northeastern Tiger.
Feng Taibao revealed a sly smile, saying, "Let introduce soone to you."
At this mont, the door of the teahouse opened, and a man dressed in a beige suit walked in, his hair impeccable, appearing gentle, and very handso and dashing.
"Isn't this Bai Yifan?" the crowd exclaid in surprise.
"Mr. Bai." Long Wu quickly stood up, laughing, "I didn't expect it to be you."
"Yes." Bai Yifan nodded, then took a seat next to Feng Taibao and said, "I know the people from Feiying Gang very well. Besides, I have so connections with Feiying from the gang. I can persuade him to assist you in eradicating Lin Chuan, taking back the transport market, and seizing Haiqing Pool."
"What are your conditions?" Long Wu wasn't foolish; why would the other party help them willingly?
"My condition is simple; Lin Chuan must be killed," Bai Yifan coldly smiled, "As long as this person lives, I cannot be at peace."
Upon hearing this, Long Wu imdiately had an epiphany, saying, "I understand now."
"Understand what?" Bai Yifan curiously asked.
"Hehe, I heard Mr. Bai has long been smitten with Tang Yung, but Tang Yung has fallen for Lin Chuan..." Long Wu grinned widely, "It seems, Mr. Bai, that you plan to use this opportunity to get rid of Lin Chuan, am I right?"
"Correct," Bai Yifan nodded, saying, "Lin Chuan is too petty, you guys must be careful."
"Of course," Feng Taibao nodded, "Other than that, no further requests from you, Mr. Bai?"
"None," Bai Yifan shook his head, "I'm not short of money, and I'm not interested in the underworld dealings. This ti, my goal is simple: to kill Lin Chuan. As long as Lin Chuan is dead, I might even let the Feiying Gang help you eliminate the Northeastern Tiger as well. Then you can firmly secure your position in the eastern city area once and for all."
"Good, very good," Feng Taibao listened and his long-calm heart stirred with so excitent.
"However, Lin Chuan is not easy to deal with, how do you plan to make a move?" Bai Yifan asked.
Feng Taibao squinted his eyes, "No matter how skilled in martial arts, one fears a kitchen knife. Although Lin Chuan is formidable, I think as long as we have enough people, we can definitely kill the kid. Why don't we gather so capable fighters, take down Lin Chuan first, and then deal with the others?"
"Agreed!" Long Wu hurriedly nodded, "I approve of this plan."
"But Lin Chuan is so powerful, aren't you afraid that he might escape?" Bai Yifan who had witnessed Lin Chuan's prowess, fighting more than ten people single-handedly with ease, such a powerful figure could even escape from a hundred foes if he had to.
"Then we can set a trap."Feng Taibao narrowed his gaze, "As long as we lure him into a confined space and then use a swarm tactic, I refuse to believe he can still live and leave!"
"This thod isn't bad," Bai Yifan nodded, "However, Lin Chuan is quite cunning; luring him into the trap may not be that easy!"
