"Hello, Uncle, it’s ."
Before he even reached the hospital, Cheng Wanfeng couldn’t wait to call Cheng Debiao to report, "I’ve found out! Xiao Wei’s injury was indeed provoked by soone!"
"I’ve seen the surveillance footage. Xiao Wei was confessing to a girl, which wasn’t a big deal, but then out of nowhere, this guy shows up, obstructing and mocking Xiao Wei, making a complete fool of him. That’s what caused Xiao Wei to get so angry that he crashed his car into a utility pole!"
On the phone, Cheng Debiao’s voice was cold, "Who is that guy? Have you found him? Do you know his background?"
Cheng Wanfeng had been waiting for this question. Clearing his throat and with a sobbing tone, he said, "We’ve found the person. His na is Mo Han, and he’s the son-in-law of Luo Shanchuan, the second son of the Luo Family."
"This son of a bitch is nothing but a loser, with no real skills to speak of, but sohow he knows Brother Chen from the Jucail Comrcial Association. It’s because of him that my left leg..."
He went on to recount the day’s events at AoXiang Investnt Company, exaggerating details but omitting certain information.
On the other end of the phone, Cheng Debiao rubbed his chin, feeling the na "Mo Han" was very familiar, but he couldn’t rember where he had heard it.
As he searched his mory, he admonished his nephew, "You wanted to use Yang ifeng to get close to Luo Ning, and then discuss with Ling Yuzhu about cooperating on the project in the eastern part of the city. The thod is viable, but you were too hasty and overplayed your hand."
"Jiangling City is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers with many formidable people. Take this as a lesson. Now go to the hospital and get yourself properly treated."
Cheng Wanfeng got anxious, "Uncle, so I just get beaten for nothing? Not only did He Chen beat , but he also extorted 70 million from . With the power of the Cheng Family, can’t we teach He Chen a lesson?"
"Even if we can’t take on He Chen, we should at least be able to handle a re son-in-law of the Luo Family, right?"
He himself had no power to challenge He Chen, but his uncle was the Family Head of the Cheng Family, and he certainly had the power!
On the phone, Cheng Debiao said disdainfully, "He Chen? He’s just a small fry who doesn’t count for much!"
"The real trouble is the Wen Family behind him. We’re planning to enter Jiangling City, and it’s inevitable that we’ll clash with the four major families here over interests. If we act rashly, the ga I’ve carefully set up will be ruined, and the Cao Family is..."
The Cao Family!
Cao Yunwei and his son!
A lightbulb went off in Cheng Debiao’s head; he suddenly rembered that in the incident where Cao Yunwei and his son died, there was soone nad Mo Han implicated, apparently that waste of a son-in-law from the Luo Family.
Piecing together the whole incident, it was said that Cao Xiongbin drugged Mo Han’s wife with ill intent. When Mo Han learned of it, he rushed over and a conflict ensued, which landed Cao Xiongbin in the hospital. Then Cao Yunwei sent n to the hospital to capture the culprit, but they accidentally kidnapped the young miss of the Tang Family. After that, news spread that Cao Yunwei and his son died from a drug-induced murder-suicide.
It was clear to anyone with eyes that the Cao father and son were wiped out by the Tang Family, and there was no problem with that—who told them to dare capture Old Tang’s precious pearl.
But Cheng Debiao always felt that there was sothing unusual about it, as the Tang Family tended to act cautiously and wouldn’t be so reckless. Why would they risk offending the Cheng Family to eliminate the Caos this ti?
Could it be for soone’s sake?
He thought and thought but still couldn’t figure it out. The only thing he was sure of was that this Mo Han was definitely not as simple as he appeared. It seed necessary to test the waters.
With this in mind, Cheng Debiao said in a deep voice, "Wanfeng, what do you know about this Mo Han?"
"Mo Han? Just a loser!" Cheng Wanfeng blurted out, "Used to have a company but then went bankrupt and beca a penniless bum. Not long ago, his daughter almost died from illness. I heard he even resorted to fraudding for his daughter’s treatnt, a downright scumbag."
"How he got lucky enough to know He Chen, I have no clue..."
Even now, Cheng Wanfeng couldn’t understand how Mo Han could know He Chen, a big shot in the murky world; their statuses were worlds apart.
"It’s not that simple," Cheng Debiao said gravely, "This Mo Han, don’t provoke him for the ti being. I will have soone deal with him."
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Debiao paced back and forth in his room.
Jiangling City was not Jiangnan City; the connections of the Cheng Family there were limited. Once they made a move, it would surely anger the Tangs, the Wens, the Zhus, and the Zhous—the four major families.
It seed that the Cao Family had to continue being used as pawns!
...
At this mont, at the Cao Family Villa in Clear Water Bay.
Cao Yunwei’s younger brother, Cao Yunkang, was lounging in a Brazilian rosewood chair with a cigar in his mouth and an Internet-famous girl with a captivating figure in his arms.
In his left hand he held a glass of tequila, and in his right, he caressed the soft parts of the online celebrity, gazing at the three-hundred-square-ter swimming pool in front of him.
All these belonged to his late brother, but unfortunately, he could only enjoy them briefly, as the Cao Family’s assets belonged to his sister-in-law and not to him, Cao Yunkang.
Thinking of his sister-in-law, Cao Yunkang’s lips curled in disdain.
This woman was truly naive, always talking about avenging her husband and son at the expense of all the Cao Family’s assets.
Revenge?
On whom?
The Tang Family? That would be like asking for a beating.
Buzz, buzz, buzz...
As he was deep in thought, suddenly his phone on the table vibrated. It was his sister-in-law calling.
"Hello, sister-in-law, what’s up?"
An icy female voice ca through the phone, "Cao Yunkang, do you want the Cao Family shares I hold?"
Cao Yunkang gave an awkward smile, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? You are my brother’s wife, how could I..."
"Mo Han, the son-in-law of Luo Shanchuan from the Luo Family! He is the indirect murderer who caused the deaths of Yunwei and Xiongbin!" the woman said coldly. "Two days. If you can kill him within two days, I will transfer all of Yunwei’s shares to you!"
Without waiting for a reply, she hung up the phone.
"Mo Han?"
Cao Yunkang pushed the online celebrity away and stood up, squinting his eyes in thought. After so ti, he picked up the phone and dialed a number, "Help look up soone, the son-in-law of Luo Shanchuan from the Luo Family—Mo Han!"
