Chapter 620: Rumors and Gossip

~14 min read 2,704 words

"Big Brother, thank you so much this time!" When the few young people saw Chen Jiajun also helping to deal with that Xia jie, they hurriedly came over to thank him. However, upon seeing Liu Youguang in Chen Jiajun's hands, they asked curiously, "What happened to him?"

Chen Jiajun sneered and said, "What happened? Scared out of his mind, that's what!"

Chen Jiajun threw Liu Youguang onto the ground, then said to Lin Fengqiao, "Jiu Shu, you seem to have an opinion on my methods?"

He had just realized that Lin Fengqiao was somewhat displeased with his way of doing things.

Although Chen Jiajun had always done things without explaining himself to others, he still needed something from Lin Fengqiao after all, and did not want to make his relationship with this old guy too stiff.

This world was too strange; what if this old guy set him up? Lin Fengqiao also spoke to Chen Jiajun without any avoidance: "You seem to have forgotten that besides being a Daoist, I am also a Police officer! What difference is there between what you did and murder?"

Chen Jiajun suddenly laughed, and his expression was quite strange: "Jiu Shu, if you were to go to this Liu Youguang's villa with me, you might change your mind."

Just now, while Lin Fengqiao and the others were looking for Xia jie's corpse, Chen Jiajun had dragged Liu Youguang to his villa for a tour and quickly guessed the whole story.

Lin Fengqiao was clearly stunned for a moment: "Could there be an inside story?"

"Blegh!"

At Chen Jiajun's invitation, the few young people still helped support Lin Fengqiao as they arrived at the villa.

As soon as they entered the door, they were stunned by the bloody scene before them.

Those young people, in particular, immediately began to vomit in large mouthfuls.

Lin Fengqiao said with a look of shock, "What on earth is going on here?"

Chen Jiajun sneered and said, "What else could it be? The corpse in the room is a high-ranking government official who was in charge of Liu Youguang. This guy invested in building a holiday resort in Jishan, but unfortunately, he didn't get government approval, so he sought out this high-ranking official to grease the wheels for his business."

"This official wasn't a good person either, so he took a fancy to Liu Youguang's girlfriend. That is, Ye Yuzhi, the woman Xia jie possessed, and forced her into a sexual transaction for power!"

"Who knew that an accident would disfigure Ye Yuzhi, so Liu Youguang brought in an evil sorcerer from Nanyang to use dark arts to help Ye Yuzhi restore her appearance, and killed Xia jie! As for what happened after that, I believe you can guess it?"

Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, everyone was shocked.

Seeing the now-demented Liu Youguang, the few young people were furious: "Damn, there's actually such a despicable man in this world! If we had known, we should have let that Xia jie kill him!"

The two girls also chimed in; after all, they had lost a companion to the tragedy, and now their eyes were burning with rage as well.

Chen Jiajun looked at Lin Fengqiao with a smile and said, "So, Jiu Shu, compared to what this guy has done, my actions are not excessive!"

Lin Fengqiao's expression was complex, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Although he was a practitioner of the Dao, he was not without a temper. After hearing Chen Jiajun's account, he almost couldn't help but beat this bastard up.

After clearing up the misunderstanding, Chen Jiajun directed the few young people to help collect the corpses of the deceased.

After all, leaving bodies exposed in the wilderness was not a good thing.

As for that bastard Liu Youguang, he had already been scared into a state of dementia, which could be considered his retribution, so he couldn't be bothered with him anymore.

After being busy for a whole day, the sun had already come out.

Everyone bid farewell to Lin Fengqiao, and as they were leaving, Lin Fengqiao also gave his junior fellow apprentice's location to Chen Jiajun.

"Although I am dissatisfied with your methods, I am not the type to hold a grudge. I wish you a smooth journey!" Lin Fengqiao said to Chen Jiajun.

"Then farewell, Jiu Shu!" Chen Jiajun boarded the boat and cupped his hands in farewell to Lin Fengqiao.

In another space-time, Chen Jiajun's mansion.

Chen Jiajun had been missing for a long time.

The few women in the house were extremely worried.

For this reason, as Chen Jiajun's first woman and the big sister of the house, Guan Jiahui had Lao E brought over.

Although Guan Jiahui could not be considered very smart, she knew that this matter could not be publicized.

She remembered Chen Jiajun saying that Lao E and the others under his command were trustworthy, so she had Lao E brought over.

Lao E frowned and said, "Although the Boss is missing, there is no need for you to worry!"

Guan Jiahui said in low spirits, "How can you tell me not to worry?"

Lao E sighed and could only tell Guan Jiahui some secret matters: "We, as a group, have a connection with the Boss. If the Boss really had an accident, we would definitely feel it."

"Really?" Guan Jiahui's face was full of surprise.

Guan Jiahui was not like the other women; she had no special skills, and Chen Jiajun was her everything.

If something happened to Chen Jiajun, she couldn't even imagine what would follow.

Lao E could understand Guan Jiahui, so he nodded and said, "How would we dare to lie to you about such things? Just treat it as the Boss having gone abroad on a business trip, and wait quietly for him to return. You don't need to worry about anything!"

Reassured by Lao E, Guan Jiahui finally calmed down. She wiped her tears and said to Lao E with embarrassment, "I'm sorry, I've made a fool of myself, and I even made you come all this way."

Lao E shook his head and said, "It's fine. You should rest first; I still have some things to attend to!"

After Guan Jiahui saw Lao E out, Lao E's expression turned gloomy.

Although what he told Guan Jiahui was the truth—that the few summoned entities had a connection with Chen Jiajun and that Chen Jiajun was indeed fine at the moment—

Chen Jiajun's empire already had people with other intentions because Chen Jiajun had not appeared for a period of time.

After a moment of silence, Lao E dialed Lao Yu's number and said, "You need to rush to Hong Kong."

Lao Yu didn't even ask what for; he rushed directly from Brunei to Hong Kong.

After arriving at the Hung Hing headquarters, Lao E took Lao Yu into the office and shut the door.

"You already know about the situation, right?" Lao E said to Lao Yu.

The news of Chen Jiajun's sudden disappearance had been quickly suppressed by Lao E, and even the driver who drove for Chen Jiajun had been placed under control.

So, besides Chen Jiajun's few women, the only ones who knew were these people.

Lao Yu nodded: "Boss's connection with us hasn't been broken, so he must still be alive."

"I know, but some people here in Hong Kong are already unable to sit still!" Lao E smoked a cigarette and said, "What should we do now?"

After a long silence, Lao Yu said, "I will hold down the fort, and you will do the killing!"

Lao E nodded and said, "That is my intention as well. You should take full control of Guojun Group now!"

That's right, after Chen Jiajun went missing, rumors and gossip had indeed spread.

Although it is unknown where it spread from, there are indeed some people who are becoming restless.

Today's Guojun Group is no longer as simple as just a business enterprise.

There are hundreds of thousands of people who rely on Chen Jiajun for their livelihood. And that is not even counting the people of Hung Hing. With Lao E holding down the fort at Hung Hing, naturally, no one dares to harbor improper thoughts; otherwise, the blade in Lao E's hand is certainly not just for show.

However, as for those people within the company, it is hard to say.

When Chen Jiajun is present, they naturally do not dare to harbor any thoughts.

After all, regardless of the underground forces, Chen Jiajun's methods and schemes are things others can hardly reach.

Moreover, with Chen Jiajun's ability, he can legally and reasonably play those who harbor evil intentions to their deaths.

But if Chen Jiajun is not here in Hong Kong, no one can guarantee the loyalty of people like Wei Li, Xu Jiawei, Su Xingbai, and Zhuo Yu.

It was precisely because Lao E realized this point that he planned to summon Lao Yu to suppress those restless bastards with thunderous means.

Lao Yu nodded: "Tell Sila that the Information Department in Hong Kong is to stop all other activities!"

"I understand!" A sharp glint flashed in Lao E's eyes: "Special times call for special methods; for every one you investigate, I will kill one!"

Although Lao E's words were plain, the chilling murderous intent in his tone was enough to make one shudder.

……

On the other side, Chen Jiajun returned to the outlying islands from Jishan.

The money extorted from Chen Shao was certainly enough for travel expenses.

So Chen Jiajun just treated it as sightseeing and was not in a hurry at all.

After saying goodbye to a few kids, he casually hitched a ride and slowly headed toward Hong Kong Island.

After arriving at a village, the old man driving the car had to head in another direction.

Chen Jiajun simply stopped in this village, preparing to eat something before leaving.

Although this small village has very few people, it has places like restaurants and inns.

Chen Jiajun walked into a restaurant, ordered a few dishes at random, sat down, and blew on the electric fan.

Just as Chen Jiajun was resting, he suddenly heard a burst of noise coming from nearby.

Turning his head to look, he discovered that it was actually an acquaintance.

It was none other than Yafang, the dance hostess who had intended to dress up as a ghost to scare him at the inn that day.

However, her situation now could not be considered good; she was covered in dirt and was pulling along a chubby little boy.

Her fierce appearance remained the same; even though she was in such a sorry state, she was still yelling at someone at the top of her lungs.

After having a row with the other party, she dragged her chubby son into the restaurant and happened to see Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun looked at Yafang with a smile and said: "How did you end up in such a state after not seeing you for a few days!"

"You bastard!" Yafang was furious, grabbed the restaurant Boss's kitchen knife, and slashed it toward Chen Jiajun.

If it were in the past, if anyone dared to pull a knife on him, Chen Jiajun would have already killed her.

But considering her chubby son was pulling on her for dear life, Chen Jiajun would not go so far as to kill a mother in front of her son.

So he simply tapped with his chopsticks, and Yafang felt a pain in her wrist, causing the kitchen knife in her hand to fly out.

Yafang looked at Chen Jiajun with a look of shock and suspicion, not daring to make another move.

Chen Jiajun said indifferently: "We are acquaintances after all, don't always be brandishing knives and guns; sit down and eat together! Looking at you, you probably haven't eaten for a few days, right?"

Yafang was not an ordinary woman either; she glared fiercely at Chen Jiajun and then sat down to eat.

Watching the mother and son wolfing down their food, Chen Jiajun shook his head and asked the Boss to add two more dishes.

Seeing that both of them had pulled knives earlier and were now sitting down to eat together, the Boss could only shake his head and go to cook.

There were not many people in the restaurant; apart from a dazed and foolish old man, there was only a young man wearing glasses who looked refined.

They also frequently looked toward their table.

However, seeing Chen Jiajun and the others sitting down and eating quietly, they did not bother with it anymore.

Chen Jiajun looked at the mother and son with some amusement and said: "Yafang, a woman like you with a 'drag-oil-bottle' son in tow, I'm afraid it won't be easy to find a new partner!"

"Bastard, is it any of your business!" Yafang remained fierce, but a trace of reluctance flashed in her eyes as she looked at her son: "I am going to find my brother to help take care of this kid!"

Chen Jiajun glanced at Yafang, shook his head, and said: "Tsk tsk, you're on the run after committing a crime, aren't you!"

"You... how did you know?" Yafang's eyes widened immediately, and she said with obvious panic.

Chen Jiajun pointed to her wrist and said: "You hacked someone, and you don't even know how to wash the blood off your wrist; be careful about getting caught by the cops! Tsk tsk, you woman are quite fierce, actually going to hack someone!"

Only then did Yafang notice that there was an obvious bloodstain on her wrist, clearly left by the fresh blood that had stained her sleeve earlier.

After she hurriedly covered it up, she said to Chen Jiajun: "You guy... you probably aren't a good person either!"

"Would a good person invite a woman like you to sit down and eat?" Chen Jiajun sneered and said: "You don't think I really took a fancy to your looks, do you?"

Yafang really could not see through this mysterious man in front of her.

Knowing how he had played them both like fools with his elusive behavior at the old man's inn earlier, she knew this man was definitely not to be trifled with.

It was just that Yafang could not suppress her temper, which was why she came up to find trouble with Chen Jiajun.

Otherwise, having encountered someone like Chen Jiajun, she should have stayed as far away as possible.

Yafang said coldly: "It's useless even if you took a fancy to me, my man will beat you to death!"

Chen Jiajun smiled, shook his head, and said: "Looking at you, you've found a new partner! The other party must be a robber, right!"

"How do you know that too?" Although Yafang acted fierce, she was, after all, just an ordinary woman who started as a dance hostess.

She was tricked into revealing it by Chen Jiajun in just two sentences.

Chen Jiajun smiled without saying a word, only saying indifferently: "Following such a person, living a life of displacement, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see your son for the rest of your life!"

If it weren't for the fact that Yafang's chubby son was quite likable, Chen Jiajun would absolutely not have said these words.

"None of your business! Bastard!" Yafang glanced at her son, then said fiercely to Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun did not care about the woman's words, but threw a few hundred dollars on the table and said: "If you want what's best for your son, take him and leave now! This place is not simple!"

Yafang was stunned for a moment, then let out a scoff: "Acting all mysterious, do you really think you're some kind of ghost-catching celestial master!"

Chen Jiajun was naturally not a celestial master; Lin Fengqiao had already said he did not have a shred of natural talent, and learning it would just be a waste of time.

However, Chen Jiajun had indeed learned a few small tricks from Lin Fengqiao, for instance... Feng Shui Qi Observation. (End of chapter)
