Chapter 744

I pressed the answer button, and Li Jia's voice came through: "Mr. Zhao,"

- Li Jia appears (Li Jia) -> Li Jia (provided). Mr. Zhao -> Mr. Zhao (provided). So include Li Jia, Mr. Zhao.

I have already arrived in Zaocheng. I am safe.

- Zaocheng appears (Zaocheng) -> Zaocheng (provided). So include Zaocheng.

"Great, Li Jia, is anyone following us on the road?" I asked.

- Li Jia again.

"No. I'm driving really fast, all over the speed limit, and I haven't seen any following vehicles on the road. Besides, once we entered Zaocheng territory, there were people arranged by Secretary Qin to meet us. Nothing happened along the way." Li Jia said.

- Zaocheng again, Qin Secretary (Secretary Qin) -> Secretary Qin (provided). Li Jia.

"As long as you're safe, I can relax. Have Secretary Qin arrange someone to specifically check if that money has a tracker." I instructed Li Jia.

- Qin Secretary again, Li Jia.

"Okay, Mr. Zhao. I'll take care of it right away. What should we do with the money?" Li Jia asked.

- Mr. Zhao, Li Jia.

"Just give it to Secretary Qin; he knows what to do. Then we can treat it as the startup funds for our Xue County tourism project." I said over the phone.

- Qin Secretary, Xue County (Xue County) -> Xue County (provided). Also maybe 'our Xue County's tourism project'. So include Xue County.

"I understand, okay, Mr. Zhao. I'm safe, and you in Huaihai should also take care." Li Jia said.

- Mr. Zhao, Huaihai (Huaihai) -> Huaihai (provided). Li Jia.

"Okay, Li Jia, goodbye." I hung up the phone.

- Li Jia.

I came out of the garage,

- No named entities.

I returned to my room, and my phone rang,

- None.

I saw it was a message from Kang Yali: the money has been paid, and we'll go together to Da Heng Group tomorrow at nine.

- Kang Yali (Kang Yali) -> Kang Yali (provided). Da Heng Group (Da Heng Group) -> Da Heng Group (provided).

I replied with an affirmative.

- None.

The next morning, Kang Yali and Xu Feng arrived on time to pick me up.

- Kang Yali, Xu Feng (Xu Feng) -> Xu Feng (added).

We were happy to see each other and shook hands.

- None.

My car had already been driven away by Li Jia.

- Li Jia.

I then got into Kang Yali's car. Xu Feng was driving.

- Kang Yali, Xu Feng.

Kang Yali asked me in the car,

- Kang Yali.

"Jianqiang bro, that money, you really feel safe leaving it at the Tianlong Hotel."

- Jianqiang (Jianqiang) -> Jianqiang (provided). Tianlong Hotel (Tianlong Hotel) -> Tianlong Hotel (provided).

"Don't worry, nowadays it's a society ruled by law; who would dare cause trouble?" I laughed calmly.

- None.

"Jianqiang bro, I advise you to still be careful; with that much cash, if criminals get any ideas, it'll be trouble." Kang Yali added worriedly.

- Jianqiang, Kang Yali.

"Hmph, nobody here dares to touch my Zhao Jianqiang's money. Rest assured, Ya Li, anyone who has designs on my money is already dead." I looked out the window and stopped chatting with Kang Yali.

- Zhao Jianqiang (Zhao Jianqiang) -> Zhao Jianqiang (provided). Ya Li (Ya Li) -> Ya Li (provided). Kang Yali.

We soon arrived in Zaocheng,

- Zaocheng.

After arriving in Zaocheng, Kang Yali gazed out the window, wondering what she was thinking.

- Zaocheng, Kang Yali.

We were back in a familiar place again.

- None.

We arrived at Da Heng Group.

- Da Heng Group.

After the security guards registered us, I had them contact Zhao Xiaohua, saying his brother had come.

- Zhao Xiaohua (Zhao Xiaohua) -> Zhao Xiaohua (provided).

Kang Yali and I entered the lobby of Da Heng Group.

- Kang Yali, Da Heng Group.

I let out a long sigh,

- None.

"Ah, I'm back again. I never thought returning would be to settle accounts."

- None.

Kang Yali smiled,

- Kang Yali.

"Jianqiang bro, you really just gave up Da Heng Group that easily."

- Jianqiang, Da Heng Group.

"What can I do if I don't give up? Didn't you tell me before, we're just ordinary people; we should let go when it's time to let go."

- None.

"Jianqiang bro, but you've put so much into Da Heng Group; I feel letting go like this is too not worthwhile." Kang Yali said.

- Jianqiang, Da Heng Group, Kang Yali.

"Ya Li, what is worthwhile, what is not worthwhile."

- Ya Li.

"You still want to come back as the financial director, don't you?" I said, laughing.

- None.

"Jianqiang bro, I really don't mean that." Kang Yali's words had just finished.

- Jianqiang, Kang Yali.

Zhao Xiaohua came downstairs with Xiao Shitou.

- Zhao Xiaohua, Xiao Shitou (Xiao Shitou) -> Xiao Shitou (provided).

Zhao Xiaohua saw Kang Yali and was stunned, then immediately questioned: "How did you come here?"

- Zhao Xiaohua, Kang Yali.

"How could I not come? Humph, I've also contributed a lot to Da Heng Group." Kang Yali stared at Zhao Xiaohua.

- Kang Yali, Da Heng Group, Zhao Xiaohua.

"You disgusting woman, Da Heng Group was almost ruined by your hands. Get out." Zhao Xiaohua yelled at Kang Yali.

- Zhao Xiaohua, Da Heng Group, Kang Yali.

"Zhao Xiaohua, today I'm a guest; you can't treat me like this, or you'll bear the consequences." Kang Yali said angrily.

- Zhao Xiaohua, Kang Yali.

"What, what kind of guest are you? You woman are terrible; if it weren't for you, Sun Dajun could have clashed with my brother."

- Zhao Xiaohua, Sun Dajun (Sun Dajun) -> Sun Dajun (provided).

"If it weren't for you, Niu Ju could handle my brother."

- Niu Ju (Niu Ju) -> Niu Ju (provided).

"If it weren't for you, Kong Shi could act against my brother."

- Kong Shi (Kong Shi) -> Kong Shi (provided).

"Brother, am I right? Why did you bring this woman today?" Zhao Xiaohua finished speaking and looked at me.

- Zhao Xiaohua, Zhao Jianqiang (Zhao Jianqiang) -> Zhao Jianqiang (provided).

I looked at Zhao Xiaohua, smiling, and said,

- Zhao Xiaohua.

"Alright, Xiao Hua, that's all in the past; don't bring it up."

- Xiao Hua (Zhao Xiaohua) -> Zhao Xiaohua (provided).

This time, Kang Yali didn't come alone; she also brought her husband Xu Feng.

- Kang Yali, Xu Feng.

"Bringing up those things would make Ya Li lose face."

- Ya Li.

"Kang Yali, you still have the cheek to live, what, you brought your man here. This is your man, how does he look like a traitor?"

- Kang Yali, Xu Feng (Xu Feng) -> Xu Feng (provided).

"Yo, do you know what kind of woman your wife is?"

- Xu Feng, Kang Yali (Kang Yali) -> Kang Yali (provided).

"Let me tell you, your woman first slept with Sun Dajun, and then she had an affair with Niu Ju."

- Zhao Xiaohua, Sun Dajun (Sun Dajun) -> Sun Dajun (provided), Niu Ju (Niu Ju) -> Niu Ju (provided), Kang Yali (Kang Yali) -> Kang Yali (provided).

"Don't you know, your hair is all oily green; did Kang Yali dye it green?" Zhao Xiaohua mocked Xu Feng.

- Zhao Xiaohua, Kang Yali, Xu Feng.

Even a man with a strong inner self can't withstand such mockery.

- None.

"Mr. Zhao, we've come to discuss the main matter; please respect my wife and me." Xu Feng said.

- Mr. Zhao, Xu Feng, Kang Yali (as my wife) -> Kang Yali (provided).

"Respect you? What do you have to be respected for? Come, security, throw this dog couple out." Zhao Xiaohua directly ordered the security at the door.

- Zhao Xiaohua.

The security guards immediately surrounded them.

- None.

"What are you doing, Zhao Xiaohua? This is the group company. I know very well what you've done in the past; if you continue to be unreasonable, I'll expose your dirty secrets."

- Zhao Xiaohua, Group Company (Group Company) -> Group Company (provided).

I'm not a good person; could you be a good person?

You betrayed the brother who raised you for many years, and you rallied outsiders to deal with him.

Why does Da Heng Group have what it has today? You cannot escape responsibility.

You teamed up with Kong Shi—hah, don't think I don't know anything.

You want to swallow the whole Da Heng Group.

Sun Dajun told me everything.

What kind of person are you, Zhao Xiaohua? Brother Jianqiang, I believe you know yourself better than I do.

Now you're pretending to be a good person—what were you up to back then?

Let me tell you, Zhao Xiaohua—I still have your old evidence, how you colluded with Kong Shi, how you used Sun Dajun…." Kang Yali retorted at Zhao Xiaohua without mercy.

Zhao Xiaohua's face went from red to white.

He could no longer control himself,

He raised his hand and slapped toward Kang Yali's face.

Kang Yali couldn't dodge in time, and the slap landed on her face.

Five clear fingerprints were imprinted on Kang Yali's face.

Xu Feng saw this, immediately felt heartbroken and protected Kang Yali, not letting Zhao Xiaohua hit her again.

Zhao Xiaohua now feels he has the upper hand, so how could he let Kang Yali and Xu Feng go?

I didn't expect this turn of events.

"Brother Jianqiang, say a few words quickly.

"What is this? Zhao Xiaohua dares to hit me. If something happens to me, Mr. Liu will definitely not let him off." Kang Yali immediately grabbed my hand and said.

Kang Yali is right—I can't let Zhao Xiaohua offend the Liu family over a verbal spat.

I then stepped up to Zhao Xiaohua,

"Xiaohua, what are you doing? Don't fight anymore—let's talk it out. Hear me out for a couple of sentences, and have those guards step back." I gestured not to let Zhao Xiaohua get worked up.

Zhao Xiaohua then said harshly,

"Brother, move aside, let me kill this bitch—everything is her fault, the whole Da Heng Group is her doing."

Actually, Zhao Xiaohua's past deeds are no better than Kang Yali's.

He just wants to show off in front of me right now.

Xu Feng then pulled out his phone, preparing to make a call.

I can't let the situation escalate further.

So,

I shouted, "Zhao Xiaohua, Kang Yali, calm down—today we're here to discuss the real matter, not to rehash old scores.

Zhao Xiaohua, have the onlookers step back.

Xiao Shitou, have the guards return to their posts.

Kang Yali, don't let Xu Feng make the call.

We're not here to have people fight.

Hearing this, Kang Yali immediately stopped Xu Feng from making the call.

Xiao Shitou also had the guards withdrawn.
