The man in the suit watched the direction the family head had left, and sighed,
"Alas, a fox dies and its pelt is sold; when the birds are gone, the bow is stored away. Li Shengtian, you scoundrel, why did you have to go and kill Wang Youhai and his son? Now the sky over Jiangbei is about to change!"
Meanwhile, in a secret underground chamber.
The chamber, untouched by sunlight, was illuminated only by a single light bulb that flickered intermittently.
Li Shengtian lay on an iron bed.
Now, the entire Jiangbei region had a warrant out for Li Shengtian's arrest.
A murderer, who had killed the renowned father and son duo, Wang Youhai and his son, in Jiangbei City.
Li Shengtian was now a fugitive with nowhere to hide. This underground room was a location he had previously used for his subordinates to conduct illicit transactions.
He never imagined it would become his only refuge.
"Creak..." A door opened, startling Li Shengtian from his sleep. He leaped up immediately, watching the iron door slowly swing open.
"Who?"
As soon as Li Shengtian spoke, a voice echoed from the doorway,
"I never thought the esteemed Chairman Li of the Li Group would be reduced to this. Tsk tsk tsk, how pathetic!"
With that, a figure walked in.
"It's you?" Li Shengtian frowned upon seeing the newcomer,
"Jin Gong, how did you know I was here?"
Jin Gong, clad in a black trench coat, sat down on the only chair and said to Li Shengtian,
"Finding the whereabouts of a stray dog like you is just a matter of snapping my fingers."
Hearing this, Li Shengtian's taut nerves relaxed, and he sighed,
"I am useless now. What's the point of looking for me? Do you intend to turn me in for that meager bounty of a few hundred thousand?"
Jin Gong sneered,
"If it were for that paltry sum, you would already be behind bars."
"Then why are you looking for me? What value do I still have?" Li Shengtian retorted.
Jin Gong got straight to the point, standing up without any preamble,
"The murderer of my son and the one who caused your downfall are the same person. Moreover, as far as I know, your son is currently lying in the hospital. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Li Shengtian was confused, his brow furrowed,
"You mean to say..."
Jin Gong continued,
"I will definitely avenge my son's death. Therefore, I propose we cooperate."
"How can I cooperate with you in my current state?" Li Shengtian said, a flicker of dejection in his eyes.
"That's where you're mistaken," Jin Gong said, flicking his trench coat,
"You must be aware of my international standing. And in Jiangbei, you still have the Black Tiger Gang, don't you?"
Li Shengtian's eyes lit up at this.
That's right! He still had the Black Tiger Gang!
"How do we cooperate?"
Li Shengtian had originally sought revenge for his son, but he had been pushed to his current predicament step by step. Now, he wanted a comeback, and more than that, he wanted to eliminate Qin Xuan!
"How do you want to proceed?"
Seeing that Li Shengtian agreed to cooperate, Jin Gong smiled sinisterly,
"That brat is somewhat capable, but at most, he's just an ordinary martial artist. I haven't been around for so many years for nothing. I know some people..." Da Feng Novel Network
Qin Xuan, as usual, went out to pick up Tantai Yue from work.
However, the location had changed.
Previously, it was Hong Yan Company, but now it was Wang Group.
As soon as he arrived at the group, the receptionist's face instantly showed a hint of disgust upon seeing Qin Xuan.
Everyone in the building now knew Qin Xuan.
He was President Tantai Yue's husband, who took her to and from work every day.
If it were any other time, people might have thought this couple was deeply in love.
But rumors had begun to circulate from somewhere.
They said that President Tantai Yue's husband was a good-for-nothing, idle bum, living off his wife's earnings, his only task being to drive her to and from work.
The first time he came, the receptionist didn't know Qin Xuan was Tantai Yue's husband and had even had security escort him out.
Qin Xuan's notoriety had indeed spread from Hong Yan Company to Wang Group.
