Chapter 612 - 612 Kill Him for Me!
Wu Shao's brother-in-law!
Wang Botong!!
Chief Secretary to Chen Qing, the Chairman of Xijing Financial Group!!
A man of immense power in the entire Longxi Province, and Wu Shao had already called him!
This big shot was coming right away?!
"HAHAHAHA! Wu Shao! Wu Shao! Now we can rest assured!!" Ye Jinsheng immediately scrambled up from the ground, the fear and panic on his face completely gone as he ran to Wu Shao's side.
"Ye Jiajia! So what if this wild man of yours has great strength? Can he compare with Xijing Financial Group? Trash!" Ye Jiayi also stood up. She gave Ye Jiajia a contemptuous glance, then her gaze rested on Qin Heng as she sneered, "Trash! Now we're in modern society. It's not like you can do whatever you want just because you're powerful. Let's see how arrogant you can be when Chief Secretary Wang arrives! HAHAHA!"
「On the streets of Xijing City.」
An Audi was on the road, driven by a designated driver.
Actually, Wang Botong's arm had already been bandaged, but he was injured and couldn't drive, so he had to temporarily find a designated driver. This was for safety.
Chen Qing and his daughter, Chen Yuhan, sat in the back seat.
"Secretary Wang, was that Wu Liang, your young brother-in-law, who just called you?" Chen Qing asked calmly. "I hear he's been causing a lot of trouble using your name."
"Th-this... well, I can't really control him..." Wang Botong stammered, his body tensing in fear. "My wife lost her parents; he's her only brother. It's natural for her to dote on him."
"Originally, I was planning to start investigating you as soon as I returned today," Chen Qing said in a very calm tone, but it made Wang Botong break out in a cold sweat and tremble all over.
"Chairman, I..." Wang Botong was dying of regret. If he had known Wu Liang was so arrogant and that word had reached the Chairman's ears, he never would have backed him all this time!
"However, since you took a knife for me this time, I can make an exception, just this once." Chen Qing gazed at the passing scenery. "When we reach Nanwu Road up ahead, drop me and Yuhan off. You can go on by yourself."
He had already understood from the phone call that Wang Botong's young brother-in-law had gotten into trouble and wanted Wang Botong to go and handle it. Chen Qing didn't want to get involved in such matters. He had initially planned to replace this incompetent secretary upon his return and investigate him. However, since Wang Botong had taken a knife for him, he couldn't make a move against him right now. That would be unprincipled.
"Thank you, Chairman! Thank you, Chairman!!" Wang Botong felt as if he'd received a royal pardon. He had regretted taking that knife for Chen Qing earlier, but now he realized it was damn well worth it. After this life-saving act, he felt sure Chen Qing wouldn't move against him anymore.
So, he immediately began scheming how to deal with the person who had opposed his young brother-in-law! He had to get even for Wu Liang!
Despite his pitiful act just then, pushing all the blame onto his wife, in reality, Wang Botong had secretly received numerous benefits from his young brother-in-law—money, women, he had enjoyed plenty. The two of them were cut from the same cloth!
In cahoots!
「A moment later.」
The Audi arrived at Nanwu Road, and Chen Qing, along with Chen Yuhan, got out of the car.
Wang Botong sat in the passenger seat. After bidding farewell to Chen Qing and Chen Yuhan, his fawning expression immediately turned cold and harsh. Damn it! he seethed internally. Which little bastard dares to cause trouble for my brother-in-law on my turf? They're really fucking asking for death!
Chen Yuhan watched the Audi drive off, her delicate eyebrows knitting into a frown. She said to her father, "Dad, can you really not see it? Secretary Wang has no intention of repenting whatsoever."
"Haha, how could I not see it?" Chen Qing chuckled. "I just want to catch him in the act. Young Wang has been getting more and more out of line these past few years. If we don't deal with him soon, there will be serious trouble!"
"Yes! The wicked should get what they deserve!" Chen Yuhan nodded, her disapproval of Wang Botong clear. She had personally seen Wang Botong and Wu Liang taking high school girls to a hotel once! The memory filled her with utter disgust!
After the Audi had driven away, Chen Qing and Chen Yuhan hailed a taxi together.
"To the Ye Family's Grand Courtyard!"
「At that moment, at the Ye residence.」
"Master, what should we do?"
Ye Jiajia was visibly panicked, even more so than when she had faced Wei San earlier. She spoke to Qin Heng with extreme anxiety, "Master, Chief Secretary Wang is coming! He's the chief secretary to the chairman of Xijing Financial Group!!"
In the eyes of ordinary people, no matter how strong Martial Artists were, they could not openly confront a top-tier conglomerate like Xijing Financial Group. The vast majority still believed that large organizations held the greatest power in the world. Groups like Xijing Financial Group were among the most elite forces in Longxi Province; no one could afford to provoke them, much less dare to. Ordinary people were simply incomparable to such massive conglomerates; the gap was too great.
Therefore, in Ye Jiajia's view, even if Qin Heng's strength was immense and terrifying to the extreme, he would surely have to retreat before the chief secretary of Xijing Financial Group's chairman! No matter how powerful an individual was, they couldn't compare to such a top-tier conglomerate!! Xijing Financial Group virtually controlled the economic lifeline of the entire Longxi Province. The resources and power it could mobilize were terrifying, far beyond what any single individual could hope to match.
"Getting nervous now?" Wu Liang cackled, sprawled on the ground yet feeling immensely pleased. He looked at Ye Jiajia and Qin Heng, saying, "You two, just you wait! When my brother-in-law arrives, he'll make you pay! HAHAHA!!"
"Ye Jiajia, you should have known this would happen! Why did you even bother?" Ye Jiayi sneered, her face a mask of mockery as she looked at Ye Jiajia. "Since you decided to sneak around with a wild man, don't blame the Ye family for being ruthless!"
"I didn't!" Ye Jiajia said, her pretty face flushing with anger as she clutched Qin Heng's arm. "Master, you better leave quickly, or it'll be too late once Secretary Wang arrives."
"Who wants to leave? And why would it be too late when I arrive?"
Just then, Wang Botong suddenly walked through the entrance of the Ye residence. After glancing at Qin Heng, he turned his attention to Ye Jiajia. Upon seeing her stunning beauty, his eyes lit up as he said, "Little beauty, would you like to spend the night with me?"
He was so direct and blunt, shamelessly asking Ye Jiajia to sleep with him, without any attempt at concealment—completely brazen and arrogant to the extreme!!
"HAHAHA! You're done for! You're done for!" Wu Liang pointed at Qin Heng, laughing uproariously while pounding the ground with his other hand. Then he looked at Wang Botong and yelled excitedly, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law! You're finally here! It's that guy, that little bastard! Get him for me! Kill him! Kill him!!"
"You don't need to tell me that!"
Wang Botong waved his hand dismissively, his chin lifted arrogantly as he looked at Qin Heng, about to rebuke him. But upon getting a clear view of Qin Heng's face, he suddenly froze!
THUMP!
Wang Botong's legs went weak, and he dropped to his knees on the ground, his eyes wide open, staring at Qin Heng in disbelief, his body trembling as he stammered, "You! You!! How could it be you?!?"
