Chapter Index

    “Young Master Xu it’s my fault for not managing my subordinates properly. I’ve made a fool of myself before you. Please have a seat.”

    The young man at the head of the conference table stood up inviting Xu Shaochen to sit down.

    “Young Master Xu this is the chairman of our Sheng Qin Group Liang Chuan.”

    Jiang Yaohai introduced from the side.

    “Nice to meet you Chairman Liang.”

    Xu Shaochen greeted with a smile then sat directly opposite Liang Chuan.

    The conference table was long with quite a distance between Xu Shaochen and Liang Chuan but it still allowed them to converse face-to-face.

    The others were seated on both sides of the conference table.

    “Young Master Xu I heard you’ve been having some unpleasant dealings with the Xiao Family recently?”

    After Xu Shaochen sat down Liang Chuan was the first to break the silence.

    Xu Shaochen smiled noncommittally: “It’s fine just some minor friction but still within a solvable range.”

    Hearing this the others all twitched their mouths.

    The Xiao Family’s second young master was now in the hospital between life and death and this was what he called minor friction?

    “Ahem ahem.” Liang Chuan coughed a few times then continued “It’s like this Young Master Xu we know the Xu Corporation is very powerful but in Jingcheng the Xiao Family might have the upper hand. So I think we could actually cooperate in some aspects.”

    “Do you all have a grudge against the Xiao Family?” Xu Shaochen asked in return.

    Liang Chuan shook his head: “No but we belong to different factions. That doesn’t prevent us from kicking them while they’re down.”

    “The Xiao Family is an old established family while we are the nouveau riche. Does Young Master Xu understand what I mean?”

    Hearing this Xu Shaochen chuckled lightly: “Is Chairman Liang asking this because you’re treating me like that fool who just left?”

    Faced with Xu Shaochen’s unexpected response Liang Chuan felt a bit awkward: “Of course that’s not what I meant. It’s just that Young Master Xu might not be very familiar with Jingcheng so I asked that question.”

    “Tell me how we can cooperate. I personally prefer straightforwardness.” Xu Shaochen skipped over the topic.

    Hearing this Liang Chuan’s expression turned serious: “Actually there’s not much to discuss. It’s just about reaching an agreement to join forces and distribute the benefits according to our contributions.”

    While Xu Shaochen and Liang Chuan were discussing how to divide up the Xiao Family’s assets.

    Wang Xun who had just been kicked out of the conference room after overcoming his initial fear was feeling more and more indignant.

    Was he really just kicked out of the Sheng Qin Group like that?

    The more he thought about backing down the more he felt cheated the more he thought about retreating the angrier he became.

    And then there was that traitor Zhou Qing who had slept with his sister. Not only did he not help but he even hit him for an outsider.

    No he couldn’t let this go.

    If he just left like this Jiang Yaohai would probably laugh his head off.

    This is what they call “the sCar has healed the pain forgotten.”

    Wang Xun took out his Phone scrolled to a number and said through gritted teeth: “Damn that Xu if I don’t get revenge for this I’m not human!”

    As he finished speaking he dialed the number.

    Soon the call connected.

    “What’s the matter?”

    Hearing this voice Wang Xun said pitifully: “Young Master Zhao I’ve been beaten up. You must help me get justice!”

    “What! Who did it? Who’s so bold! Don’t they know you’re with me?”

    “I don’t know him either. I’m at the company entrance now. Young Master Zhao you can’t just stand by and do nothing.”

    The more Wang Xun spoke the more wronged he felt his voice carrying a hint of tears.

    “How dare they! Wait there I’m coming right over!”

    “Beep~ Beep~ Beep~”

    Listening to the busy tone from his Phone Wang Xun’s eyes flashed with a cold light.

    Damn it Zhou Qing you won’t help me so you think I can’t find anyone else huh?

    These days who doesn’t know a few powerful people?

    Wang Xun seemed to already see that Xu guy kneeling before him begging pitifully feeling a surge of excitement in his heart.

    “Hiss-”

    As he got excited it pulled on his facial muscles making his swollen face hurt again along with his forehead which had been bruised from kowtowing.

    “Damn that Xu I’ll make sure you kowtow until you crack the street tiles later!”

    Jingcheng First Hospital.

    Looking at the unconscious Xiao Yan on the hospital bed Xiao Li’s face was so dark it seemed water could drip from it.

    There was no need to mention Xiao Huang that troublemaker who only knew how to cause problems.

    Xiao Ye and Xiao Yan were his most prized sons.

    But now Xiao Yan had ended up in this state making his heart fill with murderous intent.

    “Yan’er don’t worry Dad will definitely avenge you! The Deng Family deserves to die!”

    Xiao Li almost squeezed these words out through his teeth.

    After speaking Xiao Li with an iron-grey face walked out of the hospital room without looking back.

    “Find him! Dig three feet into the ground if you have to to find that Deng guy. Wasn’t he almost beaten to death by Huang’er? This time I’ll make sure he dies completely!”

    We already know about the grudge between Deng Tianwen and Xiao Huang but now these things were no longer important. What mattered was how to kill Deng Tianwen and destroy the Deng Family.

    Watching Xiao Li leave Xiao Ye didn’t leave but looked at Xiao Yan on the hospital bed with an indescribable expression.

    He had just asked Xiao Ye had a fifty percent chance of waking up. If he didn’t wake up he would be a vegetable for life.

    “Fifty percent Second Brother you know your older brother. Not to mention fifty percent even if it was five percent Big Brother wouldn’t want to gamble.”

    “You’re unconscious now so you probably won’t feel any pain right?”

    Xiao Ye muttered as if talking to himself. As he spoke his face grew colder the killing intent in his eyes intensified and he slowly took out a pre-prepared handkerchief and folded it neatly.

    Slowly bending down he covered Xiao Yan’s nose and mouth with the handkerchief gradually applying pressure.

    Xiao Yan’s face turned paler and paler.

    Suddenly the intense feeling of suffocation made the unconscious Xiao Yan open his eyes.

    Seeing Xiao Ye’s ferocious face Xiao Yan’s eyes flashed with fear. He wanted to struggle but couldn’t muster any strength.

    “Second Brother don’t blame your Big Brother. You dying is the best outcome the best!”

    Xiao Ye said through gritted teeth his face becoming more and more hideous and terrifying his breathing gradually becoming heavier.

    Finally after who knows how long Xiao Yan took his last breath with unwillingness.

    “Huff~ Huff~”

    Xiao Ye let go stepping back two steps and leaning against the wall breathing heavily. His face was covered in cold sweat and he felt parched.

    After a while he seemed to come to his senses hurriedly picked up the handkerchief and quickly walked out of the hospital room.

    Walking in the hospital corridor his steps became faster and faster. He felt as if everyone around was looking at him.

    Several times he almost bumped into people.

    After walking out of the hospital looking at the blazing sun in the sky his repressed mood finally eased a bit and a smile appeared on his face.

    The most competitive second brother was dead and the useless third brother was not a threat.

    From now on no one in the Xiao Family could threaten his position anymore.
