"Are you sure?"
Among those present, a person suddenly spoke up with a grim expression.
"Uncle Chen, do you think I could joke about this? All of this was said by Ye Haolong, I’m not too clear on the specifics myself, I only know that it was Ye Haolong who caused this. So, after we made a decision, we left the follow-up matters to Ye Haolong."
"I only found out about this morning’s events after my dad called , clearly, they were targeting us stewards. It’s just that in Tian Nan, they couldn’t reach , and haven’t set their sights on yet."
Luo Xiang was also feeling a bit scared at this point. That Li individual was just too ruthless; it never crossed his mind that the other party might still have the ability to struggle, let alone that not only did they take out the sent private guards, but they also almost wiped them all out while dressed in the guards’ uniforms.
As mbers of the top ten Families, they had never been so embarrassed before.
"Alright, understood."
After ending the video call, Luo Yuandong looked up at Chen Liang: "Old Chen, what do you make of this?"
The others also looked over.
"Why are you all looking at ? The truth is out, the youngsters are making a fuss. Do you really think we need to step in to solve this?"
Chen Liang took a cigarette out of his pocket, lit it, and took a puff, his face full of speechlessness.
"It seems your son wasn’t the one who got kidnapped."
"Old Nie, can’t you tone down your temper a bit? You’re just as hot-headed as when you were young, and it’s not like your son was the only one kidnapped."
"Alright, in my opinion, what does it matter if they were kidnapped? That Li Family kid wouldn’t dare do anything to your son. I think right now, it’s not us who should be worried, but the old Li Family."
"I think we should resolve this matter as soon as possible. Also, we need to find out the reason imdiately; did that Li Family kid have his brains kicked by a donkey, to provoke our top ten Families out of the blue like this?"
"Mm, we need to investigate the reason, but we also need to hurry up and resolve this. I’m not so worried about the few kids who got snatched. What I worry about is that club."
As Chen Liang started speaking, the other Family Heads also fell silent. This club had been established by them originally, just following a trend and to increase their bond, but who could have predicted the club would continuously develop into a behemoth.
Now, this club had grown to incorporate a vast network of connections, with extrely complex interests involved, such that even they were starting to lose control over it.
And this club was not sothing everyone approved of.
The reason there had been no trouble so far was that the club had yet to cross the tolerance threshold, and with the support of their ten big Families behind it, naturally, no one would rashly make a move without solid evidence.
There were no fools present, all were figures who had been through over twenty years of political struggle. Even though they had long since detached themselves from this club, it was still their own family mbers who managed it, and they were all very clear about any under-the-table dealings within the club.
Many things remained unexposed, causing no trouble, but once uncovered, it would be like a volcanic eruption.
The yard fell into a kind of silence.
"Cough."
At this mont, Chen Liang coughed, "I had soone look into Li Feng’s background."
"This Li Feng is Li Mingrui’s illegitimate son, though he has been raised by his mother since birth. His mother was once a doctor who passed away when Li Feng was ten."
"Li Feng was then brought back to the Li Family and stayed for less than two years before he ran away from ho back to Huacheng, where he lived with his maternal grandfather. After that, his university and postgraduate studies were all quite ordinary until after his postgraduate graduation, he married into a woman’s family."
"Married into a woman’s family?"
"The Li Family’s young master beca a live-in son-in-law?"
"Is that true?"
"Old Chen, you really shouldn’t joke about this!"
