Chapter 465: Discussing with Wen Han

~8 min read 1,405 words

I quickly arrived at the Fighting Fun Hall.

The person who opened the door for me wasn't Xiao Yan, but a young man named Xiao Liu.

This indicates Xiao Yan's injury is severe; he hasn't recovered even now.

Xiao Liu hurriedly brought me into the courtyard.

The courtyard was full of people, each holding something, vigilantly looking all around.

Wen Han came out of the house at that moment, quickly walking up to me,

"Brother Jianqiang, you've arrived, that's great. Now there's nothing going on in the world.

This night has worn me out."

I looked at Wen Han; sure enough, his eyes were bloodshot from a sleepless night.

I said, "Mr. Wen, I heard that last night Sijiucheng wasn't idle; the Zhou Family is finished, right?"

"Come inside and sit, let's talk indoors." Wen Han ushered me into the inner room.

Wen Han and I sat down.

"Brother Jianqiang, sigh, this matter, with Brother Wang's help, the superiors finally decided to act against the Zhou Family.

We won this time so easily,

mainly because you, Brother Jianqiang, captured Shen Honghong, Zhou Fuhai, and Liu Shiru.

These key witnesses,

are the strongest means to overthrow the Zhou Family.

Faced with human and material evidence, even if the Zhou Family had great abilities, they couldn't overturn things." Wen Han said happily.

"Mr. Wen, you flatter me. I only contributed a little; really it's thanks to you and Brother Wang. Without you, my evidence would be useless.

Who would believe me? I'm just an ordinary civilian." I hastily demurred.

"Alright, Brother Jianqiang, don't be modest; your merits are real. Sigh, the Zhou Family is finished, but the only regret is that we didn't catch Zhou Jie—at the last moment he actually escaped from the Jinghe Guesthouse.

How did this guy escape,

I still can't figure it out." Wen Han sighed.

"Zhou Jie ran away. Oh, Mr. Wen, do you need my help to look for him? We must eradicate the roots when we cut the grass, otherwise this guy might become a threat later." I said.

"No need. He can't become a threat; I've already removed his roots. Zhou Renfeng has been toppled, so even alive he can't amount to much. We don't need to worry about him for now.

"Brother Jianqiang, I don't know if Miss Xiao Fang has been rescued." Wen Han asked.

Wen Han still worries about Xiao Fang.

I said, "She's already been rescued. Mr. Wen, after we left the Fighting Fun Hall that day we went to Yanbei County, where we captured Zhou Jie, then exchanged him for Xiao Fang. If I'd known the Zhou Family would fall so quickly, I wouldn't have released Zhou Jie."

"You can't say that; Xiao Fang's safety is more important than anything—after all, she's the daughter of your deceased friend. You have a duty to protect her.

At the time, exchanging Zhou Jie for Xiao Fang was unavoidable.

But we didn't do it well, letting Zhou Jie slip through the net.

"Where is Xiao Fang now?" Wen Han asked again.

"Xiao Fang, I've already sent her back to the Provincial Capital. Next, I plan to let her return to Zaocheng.

As long as we overthrow the Zhou Family, the dark clouds over our heads will disperse. We won't have to fear anything anymore."

"Or let Xiao Fang come to Sijiucheng. This Fighting Fun Hall is still short-staffed." Wen Han said, glancing at me.

"Mr. Wen, I need to ask Xiao Fang about this; if she agrees, I'll let her come to Sijiucheng. But it wouldn't be suitable for a young lady to fight crickets in the Fighting Fun Hall, would it?" I laughed.

"Haha, Brother Jianqiang is joking; how would I let Xiao Fang host cricket fighting here? She used to be a host,

a word from me to the TV station and she could get in.

Let's do this: see what kind of programs she likes to host.

Let her choose; how does that sound?" Wen Han said.

"In that case, I still need to consult Xiao Fang. Everything will follow her choice."

"Exactly, we'll follow her wishes; we can't force this." Wen Han took out a cigarette and tossed it to me.

I caught it and lit it,

"How's Shen Honghong doing?"

"She's been handed over to Brother Wang. She turned against the Zhou Family and became a witness; she'll likely need to stay detained for a while. I believe she'll be out soon.

"Brother Wang appreciates Shen Honghong. Brother Jianqiang, you understand." Wen Han didn't elaborate further.

Shen Honghong has also caught Brother Wang's eye.

This woman is formidable.

She dreams of finding a powerful backer.

This Brother Wang is a major backer.

This also fulfills her wish.

A woman like Shen Honghong—actually Brother Wang likes her; really, to each their own.

I don't need to worry about these matters either.

"Mr. Wen, the Zhou Family has already been eradicated.

We're safe now; why does your Fighting Fun Hall still need such tight security?" I asked deliberately.

"Brother Jianqiang, you don't know. Although the Zhou Family tree has fallen, its roots run deep,

the people the Zhou Family associated with are all officials and nobles.

Among them, there are bound to be those loyal to the Zhou Family.

At this time, we must be extra cautious.

As for me, I'm weak and frail, unable to withstand anyone's murderous schemes." Wen Han laughed.

Mr. Wen, you're joking. I came here today just to say goodbye to you.

I want to return to Zaocheng as soon as possible." I said.

Brother Jianqiang, you certainly need to return to Zaocheng. Zaocheng there can't do without you; Kong Shi has Zhou Renfeng handle it.

Actually, my father's impression of Kong Shi is still not bad.

This guy does things quite seriously.

Just let Zhou Renfeng handle it in advance.

Forget it, Zaocheng will have a new leader.

After you get to Zaocheng, he will contact you.

Those are all our people.

Wen Han patted my shoulder.

"Then I can rest easy. Okay Zaocheng, I will definitely meet the new leader. Mr. Wen, I want to ask, what about Zaocheng's Da Heng Group?" I had to bring this up.

"This? You first arrange people to manage it. The Da Heng Group matter, didn't Wang Ge already tell you about it?" Wen Han looked at me and asked.

No need to ask Wang Ge about that four hundred million and tell Wen Han.

I nodded,

"Mr. Wen, Wang Ge already said about the Da Heng Group, he holds nearly half of the equity here. This matter, I need to protect Wang Ge's assets. The Da Heng Group now no longer belongs to me, Zhao Jianqiang; it belongs to Wang Ge and Mr. Wen."

Hearing me say this,

Wen Han laughed,

"Brother Jianqiang, you're a sensible person.

"All the world's hustle is for profit,

all the world's bustle is for profit.

Between you and me, we have never talked about profit.

But, between us we cannot avoid speaking,

we have expended effort and manpower, using various connections,

everyone has been busy for so long,

originally we planned to get some benefits from the Zhou Family.

As a result, it might turn out to be for nothing.

This Zhou Renfeng is too clever; it seems he knew in advance and cleared out all his assets.

We found nothing on him.

"Sigh, Brother Jianqiang, do you understand what I mean?" Wen Han looked at me, half-smiling, and said.

I cursed in my heart, "Grandson, I still don't understand your meaning."

I don't know what benefits the Zhou Family got, and I also don't know. You definitely won't tell me the truth.

Furthermore, dealing with the Zhou Family, could it be only for me, Zhao Jianqiang?

You Wen Family and Zhou Family are mortal enemies.

You, Wen Han, understand even better than I do in my heart.

You use me, I use you, we just mutually exploit each other.

From that meeting with Wang Ge, I knew you would definitely open your mouths wide like lions,

to take things from me.

So I went ahead and seized Zhou Jie in advance.

As for that Da Heng Group, I guess Wen Han also has ideas.

These people are all insatiably greedy.

The Zhou Family and the Wen Family have no difference.

If you only rely on them, you can only let them slaughter you.
