Upon learning about Zhao Sihai calling the police, Wu i had been on edge, because she knew Zhao Sihai would definitely face backlash, and if that happened, she would also be caught.
Although she hadn’t been involved in any criminal activities, she knew that the necessary procedures would be followed, and she would definitely be taken in for questioning.
Last night, while she and Lin Yiren were soaking in the hot springs, they heard police sirens.
At first, she thought they were coming for her.
Then she noticed that the police cars all withdrew.
At first, she didn’t understand what was going on, but now it seed it was all because of Xu Wendong.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have said to let the Black Dragon Hall’s core mbers gradually return.
"Brother, your abilities are even stronger than I imagined!" Wu i’s eyes glittered with humor.
Xu Wendong felt uneasy under her intense gaze; he sensed aggression in her eyes, as if she wanted to strip him bare and see what he was made of.
Wu i started the car again, a hint of lancholy in her eyes, "Even if the mbers of the Black Dragon Hall return, it’s useless. The Black Dragon Hall simply can’t compete with the Shengpeng Group."
"Five years ago, the Shengpeng Group secured the project to build the East City New District, which shows their imnse financial resources and connections."
"Not to ntion, they have successfully completed the East City New District project; their reputation and financial power have significantly improved. What can we possibly use to fight them?"
Xu Wendong offered his perspective, "If I’m not mistaken, it wasn’t just my blade that killed Zhao Sihai, there should be another person."
"After the midnight showdown on the overpass during the rain, did Chen Ping’an contact Zhao Sihai?"
"No... how...how do you know everything?" Wu i had a bitter smile, amazed by Xu Wendong’s tactical mind.
Just as Xu Wendong had said, after he defeated sixty-eight experts from the Black Dragon Hall, Chen Ping’an had called to mock him.
At first, Wu i hadn’t thought much of it, but now it seed there were indeed many doubts about the matter.
Chen Ping’an’s call played a catalytic role in the whole affair.
Without that call, Zhao Sihai wouldn’t have gone to such lengths to get rid of Xu Wendong.
Xu Wendong smiled, "Qingyuan’s four bosses, though seemingly in harmony, Zhao Sihai and Chen Ping’an have been secretly competing for years. This is already common knowledge."
"So, when the Black Dragon Hall suffered a major loss, Chen Ping’an’s mockery could drive Zhao Sihai to lose his rationality and bear a grudge against ."
Wu i was full of admiration, "I never expected, at such a young age, you’d be so incredibly wise. I am truly convinced by you."
"Though not won over physically."
Xu Wendong was at a loss for words, feeling that Wu i was starting a new mode of conversation, but lacked evidence.
Xu Wendong continued, "Chen Ping’an isn’t the type to be used; this ti, we two parties can totally collaborate once. Even though the Shengpeng Group has abundant resources and connections, shouldn’t we be able to confront them?"
Wu i licked her red lips suggestively, "Why don’t we try confronting each other first?"
Xu Wendong was exasperated, "Hey, can you be serious for once?"
Wu i grinned mischievously, "Then first get my forgiveness."
Xu Wendong’s mouth twitched.
Grovel?
I really can’t do that!
"I’m like your sister-in-law, also a White Tiger, I promise no stubble." Wu i’s smile grew broader.
Xu Wendong was speechless.
Wu i knew when to stop and focused on driving, "Chen Ping’an is arrogant; even if we want to join forces with him, he wouldn’t agree. Unless we let him taste the benefits, but what’s in it for us then?"
Xu Wendong spoke softly, "I will persuade Chen Ping’an to join us."
"Useless, even if we join forces, there’s no guarantee we can beat the Shengpeng Group." Wu i’s eyes hinted worry, the Black Dragon Hall and Chen Ping’an were significant figures in Qingyuan, but ultimately could not see the light of day.
However, the Shengpeng Group was different; securing the East City New District project, they had successfully gilded themselves, entering another circle.
Xu Wendong showed a hint of a cold smile, "The Shengpeng Group has connections, don’t we?"
Wu i fell silent.
After Xu Wendong was captured last night, he was then released, demonstrating his connections.
Especially when the anti-riot squad went to Di Hao Nightclub intending to arrest Zhao Sihai, it showcased his importance thoroughly.
He surely had a powerful backing.
"If you can persuade Chen Ping’an, cooperating wouldn’t be bad." Wu i’s lips curved into a smile, "But there’s a precondition: you must first obtain my forgiveness."
Xu Wendong almost cried, "Sister i, I apologize, sincerely apologize. Please, don’t joke with like this!"
Wu i had a serious expression, "I’m not joking with you."
Xu Wendong felt a headache coming on, "Why... why are you fixated on ?"
"Handso? Strong and mighty?" Wu i shook her head, "No, none of those, mainly because you resisted my Bewitching Technique, not losing yourself to it."
Xu Wendong suddenly understood; no wonder Wu i appeared so alluring and seductive, she really had cultivated the Bewitching Technique. Luckily, he had stepped into the Yin-Cultivating Realm, otherwise, he would’ve been srized by her Bewitching Technique.
Wu i continued, "You are my heart’s tribulation, only by overcoming it can my Bewitching Technique advance."
"Overcoming this tribulation ans groveling to you?" Xu Wendong smiled bitterly.
Wu i eyed him aggressively, "Sixty-nine will do too."
Pfft!
Xu Wendong almost spat out blood; her words were just so blunt and straightforward that it caught him off guard.
"The hospital’s here; you can get off." Wu i stopped the car in front of the clinic building, her face sporting a charming smile.
Xu Wendong didn’t say much, opening the car door and stepping out.
"Finish considering my proposal; after all, this decision is in your hands." Wu i’s crisp voice echoed as she drove away from Xu Wendong’s view.
"Am I really that handso? Why do so many won want ?" Xu Wendong sighed inwardly, although doing that sort of thing with won could enhance his cultivation level, he had only t Wu i two or three tis.
If he agreed to her terms now, wouldn’t that be similar to soliciting?
In his mind, such matters were sacred, needing a certain emotional basis as a lead, only then could it co to fruition. Doing it without emotion was akin to animal mating, in his view.
"Take it one step at a ti!" Xu Wendong regained his composure and strode into the clinic building, taking the elevator to the third floor. Just as he stepped onto the floor and was about to enter the examination room,
he saw two middle-aged n in black suits and sunglasses standing expressionlessly there.
His heart leaped with joy, "Did the big fish take the bait?"
