Chapter 1918 1919: Xiao Nantian Hanging by a Thread
Threat!
Yan Jingchu's words were nothing but a blatant threat.
However, given Yan Jingchu's current threat, Xiao Nantian found it powerless and unworthy of consideration. Instead, he dismissively said, "Little girl, if your grandfather or your father were still around, your words would carry weight. But now, don't you think your words are just nonsense?"
As he spoke, a sneer slowly surfaced on Xiao Nantian's face. "But I'm still quite looking forward to you making me pay a considerable price!"
With that said, Xiao Nantian stood up directly, preparing to leave.
The next moment, as if he remembered something, Xiao Nantian slowly returned his gaze to Yan Jingchu and said lightly, "By the way, if you hand over the Tenglong Group to me voluntarily, I can let your Yan family continue to thrive under my Xiao family's protection. Otherwise, there might no longer be any Yan family in this world!"
Yan Jingchu's face changed slightly, and a wave of anger gradually surfaced in her heart, but she pressed it down hard.
Then, without saying more, Xiao Nantian turned and left directly.
As soon as Xiao Nantian left, a young man emerged from a small bedroom meant for guests to rest inside the private room.
This young man was none other than Yan Qingjun.
Seeing Yan Qingjun come out, Yan Jingchu immediately got up and said to Yan Qingjun, "Brother..."
"I heard everything!" Yan Qingjun said calmly. "Xiao Nantian's tone is really getting bigger. He's so arrogant just because my Yan family currently has no one!"
Although the Xiao family is a recent rising star in the capital, when Yan Zhengrong and Yan Haohan were alive, Xiao Nantian and the Xiao family always played second fiddle to the Yan family.
But now, with Yan Zhengrong and Yan Haohan both forced to death by Ye Xunhuan, what do they have to fight with?
Therefore, Xiao Nantian scorned Yan Jingchu, not valuing her at all.
"Brother, I've already told you that Xiao Nantian absolutely won't let things rest. You wanted me to find him, there's no point..."
Before Yan Jingchu could finish speaking, Yan Qingjun slightly raised his hand, signaling Yan Jingchu not to continue.
Seeing Yan Qingjun's gesture, Yan Jingchu wisely swallowed her words and silently watched him.
"Whether Xiao Nantian will let things rest is one matter; warning him is another. The two are not the same!"
"But, brother..."
"Jingchu, do you know why the Xiao family could rise?" Yan Qingjun interrupted Yan Jingchu again.
Yan Jingchu shook her head in confusion.
She had been at Mount Emei before and knew nothing about how the Xiao family rose.
"Xiao Nantian is quite a figure, extremely perceptive, and able to avoid all risks appropriately. But at the same time, Xiao Nantian is a very cautious man!" Yan Qingjun said lightly. "Precisely because of Xiao Nantian's caution, the Xiao family became what it is today!"
"However, if a person is too cautious, they become suspicious. Once suspicious, they become indecisive when doing anything or making any decision!"
Upon hearing Yan Qingjun's words, a gleam immediately flashed in Yan Jingchu's eyes. "Brother, you mean..."
"Although you didn't talk much with Xiao Nantian today, with Xiao Nantian's cautious nature, he will definitely overthink things!" Yan Qingjun said confidently. "If Xiao Nantian starts becoming indecisive, then it's my chance."
"Moreover, I am fully prepared now!"
As he spoke, a sinister intent slowly curled at Yan Qingjun's lips.
Yan Jingchu noticed the shift in Yan Qingjun's expression, appearing uneasy, and said, "Brother, do you mean to kill Xiao Nantian directly?"
"Kill?" Yan Qingjun chuckled. "It's not as easy as that!"
"Then you..."
Yan Qingjun chuckled again. "Naturally, I want him to be more uneasy, unable to fathom what you're up to or what you intend to do!"
"Once he becomes indecisive, his end will come."
A ruthless glint flashed in Yan Qingjun's eyes as he spoke.
However, this ruthless glint vanished instantly, as if it had never appeared.
Meanwhile, Xiao Nantian was completely oblivious to Yan Qingjun's return nor knew that everything he said to Yan Jingchu had been heard in full by Yan Qingjun; additionally, Yan Qingjun was secretly making arrangements.
After leaving the hotel, Xiao Nantian chose to drive away.
Inside the car, Xiao Nantian appeared deep in thought.
Just as Yan Qingjun said, the overly cautious Xiao Nantian indeed began to overthink.
Previously, Yan Jingchu had been quite honest, supporting her family bitterly. But now, Yan Jingchu dared to challenge him, making it impossible for Xiao Nantian not to think more deeply.
Suddenly, Xiao Nantian's expression began changing unpredictably inside the car.
What did Yan Jingchu mean by saying those things now, and who gave her the courage?
What exactly does Yan Jingchu want to do?
Was it a desperate gambit?
Even though the Yan family was waning, if Yan Jingchu intended a desperate gambit, it would still warrant early precautions!
After all, the Yan family still possessed the Tenglong Group, capable of doing many things.
As Xiao Nantian mused anxiously, a black sedan, like a flash of black lightning, roared past from the opposite direction.
Because the car was on another road, Xiao Nantian didn't think much of it. But, unexpectedly, as the two cars were about to pass each other, the black car suddenly swerved, as if the steering wheel had gone out of control, charging directly at Xiao Nantian's car.
The sudden change made Xiao Nantian's expression change drastically. He urgently tried to turn the wheel to avoid the collision!
However, the black sedan was moving too fast, making evasive action impossible!
"Bang!"
A muffled sound immediately echoed around, followed by the black sedan slamming heavily into Xiao Nantian's vehicle.
The immense impact sent his car flying while the door was crushed inward, and the window glass shattered from the terrifying collision!
After sending Xiao Nantian's car flying, the black sedan didn't stop and crashed into it again.
After another collision, the black sedan finally drove away, leaving Xiao Nantian's fate unknown!
