Chapter 313: The Aggrieved Fried Skewers

That night, Li Xin stayed at He Qiong's villa to rest.

The next day.

He returned to Xi Gong, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Line: Qiuti with red eyes, silently curled up on the sofa.

Li Xin sat beside her, put his arm around her shoulders, and said, "Alright, no one can take your share; I keep my word, in Xi Gong's household only you can come in."

Line: Qiuti rubbed her eyes, hugged Li Xin's arm, and took a bite.

After biting, she said, "I also want an engagement ceremony, to be held in Xi Gong."

Li Xin, this guy, held another engagement ceremony in Xi Gong.

Long Shu happened to rush back; this time the main force of the ceremony was the old man.

With Liu Bo as the head and Ge Taizi and Long Shu as assistants, they formed the Xi Gong Elderly Group.

Well, Long Shu and his crew in Xi Gong really aren't as useful as Liu Bo; this old man can scold anyone who displeases him.

Two days later.

Red Xin Building.

Previously Li Xin's office, now it has become He Qiong's office.

After the engagement ceremony ended, He Qiong took over Red Xin Electronics; looking at the documents in her hand, she was full of surprise.

"A Xin, this is a treasure basin! Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

"What are you talking about?"

Li Xin held her in his arms, smiling as he explained, "This is my trump card; what others can see is what I want them to see."

"You are now my housekeeper; from now on, this matter is yours to handle."

"Zhang Jiachao is a talent; you must give him full trust, let him freely develop, and once I open the market, I will no longer interfere with Red Xin Electronics."

He Qiong leaned against Li Xin's chest, feeling somewhat moved.

Even her father wouldn't entrust her with such a large enterprise, but A Xin could let her take charge freely.

This trust made her feel warm-hearted.

While Li Xin was arranging his enterprises, Prosperity and Victory and Harmony had already fought several times.

Fei Quan led his men and confronted Victory and Harmony's Ji Jiaohei in Western Ring.

This greatly affected Victory and Harmony's business.

You Bo sought out Tianhong to settle accounts, but Tianhong ignored him and still wanted to fight.

Having no choice, You Bo could only find Li Xin, hoping he would act as a mediator.

A teahouse in Prosperous Corner.

After Li Xin got out of the car, he smiled and said to You Bo, "You Bo, how dare you make me wait at the gate? That's rude!"

You Bo muttered inwardly, "If I weren't waiting here for you, I'd be rude!"

"It's only natural; A Xin, your status is different now—you are the Mountain Chief of Prosperity Development Mountain—how could I dare to take it?"

The two skipped the pleasantries and went straight into the teahouse.

After the waiter served the tea, You Bo lifted his cup and said, "Please have tea!"

"Please."

Li Xin took a sip of tea, set it down, and then said, "You Bo, you of Victory and Harmony's Ji Jiaohei, in one move you disabled Prosperity's Leader and Hall Master."

"Now Tianhong is furious; how do you of Victory and Harmony plan to compensate?"

You Bo said, "A Xin, aren't you being biased?"

"Ji Jiaohei and A Ji conduct business and have also paid their dues; this matter isn't Victory and Harmony's fault, demanding compensation would be excessive, right?"

"Excessive?"

"You Bo, you know I've already withdrawn from Prosperity; my coming here today is just to give you face."

"You ask me to be a mediator yet refuse to pay the price—who's being excessive?"

After Li Xin finished speaking, he lifted his tea cup and took another sip.

Well, these past two days have been so busy; these girls are ruthless in their actions, and their lips are a bit dry.

Watching Li Xin leisurely sip tea, You Bo felt a surge of suffocating anger.

This loser obviously just wants benefits, not to reason.

You Bo said, "A Xin, you should know Victory and Harmony's basics; if we make too big a fuss, none of us will gain anything—how about we call it quits?"

Li Xin snorted, "You Bo, don't overestimate yourself; if these gloves are torn, just change to another pair."

"Victory and Harmony isn't that important; in Gangdao, aside from that, there are plenty of gloves—no one cares which pair you use."

"You say, isn't that so?"

You Bo's face darkened; he couldn't refute Li Xin's words.

"Indeed, that's the case; without Victory and Harmony, there are still others, and many people are willing to make those gloves—it's still something hard to come by!"

You Bo sighed and said, "A Xin, state your terms; as long as they're not excessive, Victory and Harmony will accept compensation."

"That's right; Prosperity doesn't want territory, just benefits—whatever the price, you two can negotiate it yourselves; I won't interfere."

After Li Xin finished speaking, he rose and left the teahouse; this matter should also be over.

Having gained both face and substance, there's no benefit in being pushy.

After negotiations, Victory and Harmony gave Prosperity a nightclub as compensation, setting up eighteen tables with strong drinks.

After this, the jianghu were saying that Prosperity's Dragon Head, Mr. Luo, having just taken office, had polished Prosperity's sign until it shone.

Quite resourceful.

Tianhong heard this news and asked his companion Sha Zhi, "What tactics did I use? I myself don't even know."

Sha Zhi pondered, then said, "Big Brother, don't worry about the tactics—Victory and Harmony bowed their heads and admitted defeat; this is your achievement."

Having gotten back his face and gained some real benefits, those Leaders had nothing to say—this is just the method.

Aye rolled his eyes listening to that—is that really how it is?

What they said is, in this matter you've kept a proper advance‑retreat balance, not overdoing it, knowing when to stop after a gain.

Tea Fruit Ridge and United Victory's territory.

Feiji also heard the news, sitting in a chair with a grim face.

Damn!

Luo Tianhong didn't even lift a finger—he just sent a lackey to stir up trouble.

Does that count as being formidable?

Then he personally took action, fighting fiercely in the New Territories against East Prosperity's Jin Mao Hu Sha, the battle raging in full swing, causing East Prosperity to suffer a considerable loss.

Why isn't anyone praising him?

Are these people blind?

Feiji was feeling annoyed, Chuanbao felt even worse, because two old geezers were making fun of him.

They were all happy!

A tea restaurant in Prosperous Corner.

Yi Hai Gen Shu, Xin Ji Jiang Shu, and Chuanbao were having tea.

This time the three parties had a bit of a conflict in Prosperous Corner and came to settle accounts.

The accounts were settled, but these two old geezers started talking about them and the new Leader of United Victory, Feiji.

Gen Shu said with a smile, 'Chuanbao, I heard you and United Victory—your new Leader Feiji is really formidable! Did you personally lead the team into battle?'

Jiang Shu tried not to laugh and echoed, 'How could it be just formidable? It's too formidable!'

A Leader swept away the prestige of an East Prosperity hall chief; people used to say you couldn't fight the Leaders of United Victory, but from now on that won't be said anymore.

This Feiji is really good at fighting!

Gen Shu nodded in agreement, 'Indeed, he really can fight!'

This Leader does the job right—when a brother is in trouble, he's a genuine helper, personally leading people to act.

Chuanbao! You and United Victory chose this Leader really well!

You two have had enough!

Chuanbao let out a loud shout, slamming the table as he continued, 'It's not over, right?'

'I fucking didn't even notice—who knew this idiot would personally bring the Punishment Hall's forces over to support?'

What can I do?

Hmm, Chuanbao also feels wronged; he had repeatedly told Feiji, over and over, not to personally get involved.

Losing face!
