Chapter 117: Another Wave of Trouble
Wu Yifan didn't know exactly what plans Liu Qingyang had in mind. However, he had just managed to win the heart of Miss Liu. No matter what, she would surely help him, right? He thought about the tactics that Miss Liu used during the arranged marriage banquet, which caused great distress to Liu Qingyang and Chen Lirun, the couple. Although both of them were well-known figures in Beitian City, they were relatively less strict in their upbringing because they only had Li Mu as their precious daughter. After all, no matter what the other did, it was still their own flesh and blood, and they wouldn't dare to scold harshly. So Li Mu, although prone to causing trouble, mostly did things out of a sense of justice and selfless assistance, without any acts of oppression or lawlessness. This made them feel quite at ease and incidents of defending their pride occurred repeatedly.
How could I, Liu Qingyang, offend such a daughter? Besides, a young lady like her couldn't do anything despicable. Compared to that guy from the Song family, she was much more honest.
Wu Yifan finally sent Miss Liu away and rubbed his temples. Then he dialed a phone number for Song Mingjie. But just as he was about to connect, he heard a series of "um, um, ah, ah..." cries. Even a fool could tell what was happening over there. It made him feel extremely annoyed. He didn't expect this chubby guy to have such a taste for excitement. He was truly a person of a gentle nature, but he didn't know if his such a physique could last for even a few minutes.
After about five or six minutes, Song Mingjie gasped and said, "Hey, who is it? Ah, Brother Wu? It's you. What do you want from me?" There was also a feminine voice that sounded sweet and girlish: "Brother Song, who called? Please turn it off. You're needed now."
Song Mingjie immediately started cursing, "You son of a bitch, get the hell out of here. This is my big brother's call. How dare you speak up? If you don't believe it, I'll stab you to death with a stick!" The woman immediately shut up in fear. Although she was quite demanding of men, she didn't want to be stabbed to death.
Wu Yifan said with a smile, "Little Song, you have quite an intense interest. Doing such things at this time of the afternoon, you must be afraid of exhausting yourself!"
Song Mingjie said with a smile, "Brother Wu, I'm also bored and just happened to see a girl who was decent-looking. So I was tricked into bed by her. If you want, you can come to my place and I'll introduce you to a pretty girl who is still virgin. She's all genuine news, how about that?"
Wu Yifan shook his head helplessly. This Song Mingjie was good in many aspects, but he couldn't pass the test of being lustful. Every day, he was only busy chasing after girls, and he didn't want to exhaust his body. He said, "I wanted to talk to you about the internet matters..."
Song Mingjie's expression changed slightly and he hurriedly said, "Oh, Brother Wu, I'm going to the restroom first..." After about a few minutes, he heard his panting voice, "Brother Wu, I didn't expect you to see it so soon. I thought it would take a few more days for the matter to become widely known and then give you a surprise. I only asked those brats to post some true or false news to distract Qian Baocui's attention. Who knew that by the end, many people joined in the commotion. Anyway, everything is in a mess now. I don't know if that news was posted by us or others!" His words also revealed a sense of pride.
"You did well this time. I guess that old man Qian Baocui is now furious. But this is not enough. I need to thoroughly stir up this pool of water to make him have no time to consider us!" Wu Yifan spoke calmly, but his words contained a cold air. Because he couldn't forget the scene of that old man being killed. He wanted to take revenge!!!
"Angkor, don't worry. I can't do everything, but I can handle this situation. I promise that Qian Baogqing won't be able to cry out for mercy!" Song Mingjie smiled sinisterly, as if he had already imagined Qian Baogqing crying and begging for mercy.
"However, you must remember this: things can be done step by step, but you must never expose yourself. Once your identity is exposed, even your father won't be able to protect you!" Wu Yifan didn't know how powerful Qian Baogqing was at present, but he knew that this person had a deep background, so every step must be cautious and not careless at all.
Thinking of Qian Baogqing's tactics, Song Mingjie also broke out in a cold sweat. He had initially just been playing around with a casual attitude, but the other party was definitely not someone who could be easily dealt with. Maybe they would send several assassins to make him unknowingly go to tea with the Ghost King. He was fearless in doing things, always putting on an arrogant and domineering posture, but he was extremely precious about his own life. He nodded repeatedly, saying, "Wu哥 is right. I will definitely be more cautious!"
Wu Yifan asked some details about the online rumors that were circulating. He knew that all of this was under Song Mingjie's instructions behind the scenes and that he had not exposed his identity. Even if Qian Baogqing was extremely powerful, it would be very difficult to trace him. This made him slightly relieved. After hanging up the phone, a pair of young men named A Xin and A Long appeared in his mind. One was highly intelligent and the other was extremely brave. If these two helped him, it would definitely have a double effect.
Thinking of the powerful forces behind Qian Baogqing, he also had to establish his own power to be able to compete with them. Otherwise, not only himself, but even the Infinite, would be crushed by their heavy blows.
Wu Yifan thought about the sweet words and tender affection that Ye Xixun had just said to him, and the Infinite's warmth. His mouth curved into a smile slightly. Having such a woman could be considered the happiest thing in his life. No matter what would happen in the future, he couldn't let Ye Xixun suffer any pain, nor could he let the Infinite be ruined by him.
Throughout the afternoon, Wu Yifan was calculating how to defeat Qian Baogqing in the fastest and most stable way. For the first time, he didn't go to the neighboring internet cafe or the neighboring mahjong parlor to play. Ye Xixun was very curious and watched him several times. He even almost called a doctor, thinking that he might have a serious illness.
But now, outside of Beitian City, everything was in chaos. It felt like a storm was about to come.
Although the various rumors and gossip about the Eastern Coast had strong public opinion, the number of people who surfed the internet each day in China was still very small, probably less than ten percent of the total number. But every event that happened in reality was something that everyone could see, which was enough to make Qian Baogqing completely collapse.
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, a young man in his twenties ran wildly out of the Eastern Coast. Before he had run twenty or so meters, he fell face down on the ground, spitting out foam and losing consciousness.
This situation made many passersby look astonished. They didn't know what had happened. Then, a kind-hearted person called 120 for emergency services and brought in several doctors from the hospital. However, after the initial examination, a result that completely shocked everyone was obtained - this young man had this kind of situation because he had injected too much drugs.
Injecting too much drugs?
This young man seemed to have escaped from the Eastern Coast?
Could the Eastern Coast really be selling drugs? Many passers-by turned their gazes towards the magnificent and well-decorated nightclub right in front of them, which was also considered one of the top nightclubs in Beitian City. Doubt, anger, humiliation all flooded their faces. If possible, they would definitely smash this seemingly civilized nightclub and let Qian Baocui, that old guy, taste the sting of their fists.
Who could have imagined that this so-called top nightclub in Beitian City on the eastern coast would be such a filthy place? Once upon a time, they all proudly told people from other cities, "If you want to see what modern life in our Beitian City is like, go and see it in the eastern coast." But now? This scene, undoubtedly, is like a hard slap in the face on their faces, making them all feel their faces burning hot.
"I looked at the website of our Beitian City today. I didn't expect that there were so many news reports. They all said that there was actually a drug trafficking den in the eastern coast, and hundreds of kilograms of drugs were being sold every day."
"Really? Hundreds of kilograms of drugs? I remember that fifty grams of drugs would result in the death penalty. So, how many times would that be executed? If it were in ancient times, I'm sure they could have carried out a beheading punishment!"
"Who said it wasn't so? But look at how many incidents there have been in the eastern coast over the years?"
"It's true. If there were no support from the authorities, how could Qian Baocui do such a thing?"
"As they say, 'corruption between officials and businessmen, corruption between officials and businessmen,' that's what it means."
"So will the people of Beitian City be harmed?"
"Who's not to blame?" ...
Among the passers-by, there were a few who were bold enough to whisper their guesses, causing many around them to hear them. Their hearts jolted with a "thud!" and they were secretly startled. They never expected the matter to be so serious. It seemed that the Eastern Coast was far from being as simple as it appeared on the surface. Everyone's expression became solemn, and they remained silent.
Just then, four burly men emerged from the Eastern Coast area. Each was two meters tall and had a menacing look, as if they were demons or vampire gods. They strode over to the still unconscious young man and one of them even kicked him hard with his foot, roaring: "What kind of brat is this? How dare you stand in front of our Eastern Coast entrance? Do you think we will throw you to the middle of the road to feed the dogs? Damn it, even cats and dogs dare to be here. This is truly outrageous!" The other three men also had an imposing air, looking at people with slanted eyes, even more arrogant than those secret agents from the Republic of China era.
As soon as he said this, the faces of all the people in the audience changed abruptly.
Perhaps just a few people didn't believe that the Eastern Coast would do such a thing before, but now seeing these security guards-like people being so domineering and overbearing, who could doubt that there were shady dealings inside the Eastern Coast? As the saying goes, "What kind of boss has what kind of subordinates." They all felt humiliated. The Eastern Coast usually seemed very orderly, and Qian Baocui often appeared on TV, donating money here and there. Who would have thought it was such a place? They were completely enraged.
