Outside the business premises.
After Lin Xiawei led Jiang Family’s people away, Tang Huoyang stood in front of Pei Jinye, staring at him intently, as if he were seeing Pei Jinye for the first time.
Pei Jinye couldn’t help but laugh, “What’s the matter?”
Tang Huoyang, with a complex expression, said, “I used to think these kinds of plots in novels were too pretentious, but experiencing it in real life is truly thrilling. However, Old Pei, you’ve been hiding your claws!”
Pei Jinye chuckled, “That’s why reality is more fascinating than fiction, who would have thought such things could still happen in today’s world.”
“Indeed,” Tang Huoyang sighed, “This time, if it wasn’t for you, the Jiang family would have had me pegged. I had heard of such incidents happening at Jiang Family Business before, and thought I had some ‘friendship’ with Jiang Lingsu, but now it seems…”
He gave a self-deprecating laugh.
“They never took me seriously… It was all my own wishful thinking.”
Pei Jinye didn’t comfort him, but shook his head and said, “I suggest you take a proactive approach, strip the Jiang family of public support first… Also, have you thought about the compensation?”
Tang Huoyang was taken aback.
The middle-aged man beside them, filled with gratitude, almost knelt before Pei Jinye.
“Young Master Pei, you truly are a noble person. I misjudged you earlier, underestimated you, that’s my fault…” The middle-aged man made as if to slap his own face.
But Pei Jinye stopped him with a laugh.
“Alright, you handle the compensation matter yourselves. Don’t worry about the pressure from the Jiang side, the higher-ups will keep an eye on this. They won’t let you suffer losses… I’ve got other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first.”
“Thank you, Young Master Pei, please take care,” said the middle-aged man, his expression changing faster than a turned page. However, seeing his loyalty to Old Tang, Pei Jinye didn’t make things difficult for him.
But Tang Huoyang’s father was a step too late; by the time he arrived, Pei Jinye had already left, leaving behind only a messy scene and the sealed entrance of the business premises.
He stared straight ahead, utterly shocked.
“I was just a minute late; can someone tell me what happened here?”
Upon hearing the full story, he felt both anger and astonishment.
But he also felt fortunate.
“This time we owe a lot to Young Brother Pei.”
Tang Huoyang felt a bit confused.
Why did he feel like he had suddenly dropped a generation?
…
In the villa area of the Jiang family’s main branch.
Suddenly, the sound of teacups being smashed could be heard from inside a house.
Not long after, the Jiangs began to search for connections everywhere.
However, the Night Patrol Department provided no news whatsoever, and even the city government had no idea which organization had responded earlier that day.
The few who were high-ranking enough to know seemed wary of someone and dared not speak recklessly.
…
At the Jiang ancestral home.
In the back hills.
Pei Jinye slowly finished gathering his powers.
These days his connection with the Silver-White Small Sword had grown increasingly strong, and he even had a hunch… that in a few days, he would be able to safely remove the Silver-White Small Sword.
In the evening,
Pei Jinye continued to enjoy nourishing foods while using the identity of Jiang Qingcang.
The middle-aged butler stood by, respectfully reporting the day’s various events, including a mention of Jiang Family Business, quietly waiting for the old master’s instructions.
Pei Jinye chewed slowly on the Spirit Meat in his mouth, “Leave them, they are an embarrassment.”
After finishing his words,
He looked up.
“Can you take over the business premises?”
The middle-aged butler was taken aback and looked at him oddly, “I’m willing to try.”
Pei Jinye said nothing more, bowing his head to continue dining elegantly.
The middle-aged butler bowed and took his leave.
About ten minutes later,
Tang Huoyang called.
Pei Jinye raised his hand in a wave.
The maids waiting in the dining room subsequently exited the room.
Only then did he answer the call using an encrypted method.
“Old Pei, you’re not in any trouble, are you?”
“I’m fine. Why do you ask?”
“The Jiangs are looking everywhere for you. They just came to my house, threatening openly and covertly, but my dad sent them packing. I’m worried they might trace you, so I wanted to give you a heads up.”
Actually, Tang Huoyang was also curious about where Pei Jinye had taken that Young Master Jiang Xiqing to, given that even the Jiang family, with all their methods, couldn’t find him.
Suddenly, he realized the junior brother he had gotten to know at the Bronze Association had somehow become unfamiliar and awe-inspiring.
When Pei Jinye hung up the phone, he pondered for a moment.
Using his Ability of Heavenly Calculation, he began to search for his parents’ whereabouts.
He specifically checked the circumstances around both of his parents.
If the Jiang family could reach Tang Family’s place, they would likely come looking soon.
Given the current circumstances, they would certainly be wary of his side’s power, and thus wouldn’t dare to act rashly.
Indeed, it was just as Pei Jinye had speculated.
The network of connections that the Jiang family’s main branch had established, using or abusing Jiang Qingcang’s reputation in Da Peng City, were of no use at the moment, and this inevitably made them begin to suspect whether Jiang Xiqing had been captured by a law enforcement squad from another city.
“Search!”
“Thoroughly search for me!”
…
Some suggested leveraging the Jiang family main branch’s connections, but this proposition was ultimately dismissed.
For the moment, no one could swallow their pride.
Especially when Uncle Jiang Suhu, looking relaxed as he watched the drama unfold while eating melon seeds, was a sight that stung the pride of those in the main branch even more deeply.
“Jiang Pinghe, I can help find your son, but you’ll have to give me 5% of your business shares.”
“Did you arrange for someone to abduct my son?”
Uncle Jiang Suhu only revealed a cold smile, “Keep slandering me, and you’ll find that the shares you hold in the business will turn into a pile of worthless paper!”
“You want a stake in the business? Dream on!”
Uncle Jiang Suhu left after a barrage of cold ridicule, his face clearly struggling. It was only after he had thoroughly been trampled upon that he left with a sense of relief.
…
Just like that, two days flew by.
The issues of the Jiang Family Business were the talk of Da Peng City.
But what was shocking was, was the Jiang family not planning to search anymore? Or had they been searching for two days without finding anyone?
Jiang Xiqing’s fair-weather friends were also keenly following the matter.
“Has Brother Qing not come out yet?”
“Have they looked for me, or for you guys?”
“I’m guessing Brother Qing has really hit a wall this time.”
“Wasn’t it said the other party was just a workshop-style small family?”
“I heard there was a big shot at the scene who couldn’t stand by and intervened… Didn’t expect the method to be so powerful, even my uncle at the city hall hasn’t caught the slightest wind of it.”
“The Military Department also didn’t get involved, saying they were unaware.”
“Otherwise, it must be a secret unit, which means Jiang Xiqing is in big trouble.”
…
…
“People say there are two Jiang families in Da Peng City, and indeed the older brother isn’t as capable as the younger one. It seems it’s not without foundation…”
Inside the general manager’s office of Dahailao, Father Pei was enjoying the drama unfold.
Mother Pei, not understanding these intricacies, was looking down at the bills.
Pei Jinye sat on the sofa, smiling naively at what Father Pei had said.
Suddenly, his eyebrows lifted.
A few cars arrived outside Dahailao.
At the same time.
Pei Jinye’s phone rang.
Incoming call alert—
From Jiang Lingsu of the Bronze Association, that “good senior sister.”
Pei Jinye’s eyelids slowly tightened.
The Jiang family had lain low for two days without daring to disturb him, and now they had finally come to him, with Jiang Lingsu leading the team, it seemed they had done their “homework” on him.
Too bad, Jiang Lingsu’s face wasn’t enough.
Pei Jinye pressed the decline button.
“Is there something at work?” Father Pei gestured for him to go if he was busy, there was no need to keep them company.
Pei Jinye smiled, “It’s not a work call, just an irrelevant person, it doesn’t matter.”
He got up to pour himself a cup of hot water.
The phone vibrated gently with a notification.
Jiang Lingsu sent a message, words filled with sincerity, indicating her unawareness of the initial incident and stating that her visit this time was to offer an apology.
She also stated that if Pei Jinye didn’t come out, she would keep waiting.
Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow.
Father Pei, thinking he was in a romance, teased him with a laugh, telling him not to let the girl wait.
Pushing and hustling, Pei Jinye was “shooed” out of the office.
A face of helplessness.
“You really are thinking too far ahead.”
From behind the door, he said, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll bring two kids home at the age of eighteen?”
“Bring ten home, I’m not afraid. I can afford to raise them!”
“…”
Pei Jinye shook his head, pocketed his phone, and took the elevator downstairs.
He was immediately faced with Jiang Lingsu and her entourage waiting at the reception.
“Junior brother.”
As soon as Jiang Lingsu saw Pei Jinye, the smile on her face became much brighter.
“Young Master,” the receptionist didn’t recognize Jiang Lingsu, but seeing her entourage’s attire… especially the fearsome-looking bodyguards, was truly frightened.
“Go on with your work,” Pei Jinye nodded and indicated.
With that, the receptionist hurriedly scurried away.
He looked up at Jiang Lingsu with a half-smile, “Miss Jiang comes with great pomp, failing to reach me by call, you even send threatening messages. Are you planning to drive my family out of business?”
“Junior brother!” Jiang Lingsu quickly protested, grabbing onto half of Pei Jinye’s arm and cooing, “Sister has never been bad to you, right? Back in the association, I took such good care of you, and now that you’re successful, you keep calling me Miss Jiang, it’s quite disheartening.”
Pei Jinye didn’t pay attention to her pretense, “Let’s talk outside, don’t disrupt my business here.”
Jiang Lingsu didn’t let go, clinging affectionately to Pei Jinye’s arm, while her bodyguards dispersed.
By the stairwell.
Two heads peeked out.
“How come the girl with Jinye has changed again?”
Father Pei couldn’t work it out, but actually, he preferred that girl surnamed Sun, who was both obedient and sensible.
…
At the entrance.
Three luxury cars were parked by the roadside.
With a face full of coquettish pleading, Jiang Lingsu said, “Dear brother, I’ve already heard about the business complications from my family. Jiang Xiqing, he’s my brother but not by blood. You might not know about the shareholding structure of the business, my uncle owns the majority, and our family just holds a minority… The family also disapproves of my cousin’s actions… Can’t you be generous?”
Pei Jinye laughed, “The ones who went too far were people from your Jiang family, they were the ones who stopped me and caused trouble, it was he who asked me to make the call and said that unless I satisfied him, I wouldn’t be let go. All these were your own choices, and now it seems like I’m the one pressuring you?”
Jiang Lingsu looked at the junior brother who used to be close to Li Xiaoyin, and she admitted she had indeed misjudged.
If she had known this junior brother could grow to such an extent today.
Even if Li Xiaoyin threatened her with a knife, she would have never let go of this junior brother.
After all, even her granduncle was helpless…
If this power could be harnessed for herself, then in the future, the main branch of the Jiang family and even the entire Jiang family would lie at her feet.
“Junior brother…”
This address of “junior brother” almost melted the nearby bodyguards.
Too bad she was dealing with Pei Jinye.
The untouchable, heartless Pei, the Big Demon Head!
