Protagonist:

Lin Hao

He first furrowed his brow slightly, his face bearing a professional seriousness, his gaze sweeping over Jiang Tiansheng, Lei Gong, and the people standing on both sides one by one, then he spoke in a tone neither warm nor cold yet unquestionable: "Everyone, this is the conference room of Huang Di Jiu Dian, a place for guests to quietly discuss affairs. I hope you can keep it a little quieter and not make loud noises disturbing other guests. Our hotel has never welcomed uncivilized guests."

Hearing these words, Jiang Tiansheng raised his brow slightly, knowing in his heart that Huang Di Jiu Dian was not a place where they could run wild at will. Although he was a prominent figure in the underworld, the Dragon Head of Hung Hing, before this large hotel backed by deep forces, his identity did not carry that much weight.

Looking at Lei Gong's side, he also wore a displeased expression, his originally arrogant aura as if doused by a basin of cold water, immediately restraining himself quite a bit.

He likewise understood in his heart that in Ao Dao, Huang Di Jiu Dian held a position of great importance, the forces behind it intricate and complex, not something a Three United Tribes leader like him could easily afford to offend.

After all, before capitalists, they short mules were nothing but small fry, and Jiang Tiansheng and Lei Gong were at most slightly bigger fry.

Jiang Tiansheng understood in his heart that today's negotiation probably could not reach any consensus, and continuing to drag it out would only add embarrassment and tension.

He stood up, straightened his clothes, his expression carrying a touch of helplessness and unwillingness, looking at Lei Gong he said: "Lei Gong, it seems we can't reach an agreement today, but I still hope you can consider my words carefully. There's no need for us to make things so stiff between us; everyone takes a step back, which is good for both of us."

Lei Gong instead snorted coldly, also stood up, his face full of disdain as he responded: "Jiang Tiansheng, don't say these nice words here anymore. The conditions I raised are already very clear. If you don't agree, then there's nothing to talk about. Hmph, wanting me to make concessions is impossible!"

Jiang Tiansheng furrowed his brow slightly, knowing further talk was useless, so he gave Lin Hao and the others behind him a look, preparing to leave.

Just as they turned and walked toward the conference room doorway, Lei Gong suddenly said from behind in a sarcastic tone: "Jiang Tiansheng, I advise you to be careful when you go back. This Ao Dao is not your Hong Kong. Here, anything can happen. Don't end up not knowing how you died!"

Jiang Tiansheng's steps paused, a nameless anger surging in his heart. He turned and looked coldly at Lei Gong, saying: "Lei Gong, what do you mean by these words? Are you threatening me? I, Jiang Tiansheng, have roamed the underworld for so many years and have never feared anyone's threats. If you want to play dirty, then our Hung Hing is not easy to mess with!"

Lei Gong laughed heartily to the sky, his laughter full of wildness. After laughing, he slowly said: "I don't mean that. I'm just kindly reminding you. If you insist on understanding it that way, I can't help it. Haha, we'll see!"

Jiang Tiansheng took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, no longer paid attention to Lei Gong, and led Lin Hao and a group of brothers quickly out of the conference room.

After leaving the hotel entrance, Lin Hao couldn't help but say: "Mr. Jiang, this Lei Gong is too arrogant. He clearly doesn't take us seriously. Are we just going to let it go like this?"

Jiang Tiansheng's face was gloomy. Walking as he spoke: "Of course we can't just let it go like this. But now the situation is unfavorable to us. We need to think long-term. Let's go back to our lodging first and discuss countermeasures properly. We can't fall into his trap and be led by the nose by him."

Everyone nodded after hearing this. The group, carrying indignation and worry in their hearts, headed toward their temporary lodging. But because of this matter, the gloom hanging over their hearts grew heavier. No one knew what methods Lei Gong would use next, nor how they should deal with this increasingly complex and troublesome situation.

Night fell over Ao Dao, the entire city immersed in a riot of colorful night hues. But beneath this seemingly lively and prosperous surface, invisible undercurrents surged.

Jiang Tiansheng thought it over and felt he couldn't just swallow this anger. Being bullied like this by Lei Gong, he ordered his brothers to take people to various venues of the Three United Tribes to create some chaos, to give the other side a taste of their own medicine, to let them know Hung Hing was not easy to mess with and would not let them be so arrogant.

However, Lin Hao had his own plans and did not go with the brothers.

At midnight, Lin Hao alone quietly sneaked to the hotel where Lei Gong was staying.

Dressed in black from head to toe, he moved like a ghost. Under the cover of night, he nimbly avoided the few patrolling personnel in the hotel.

Coming to a relatively secluded corner, Lin Hao seized the opportunity, cleanly knocked out a passing waiter, changed into the waiter's clothes, and cleverly used the room card and other items he had stolen. All the way unobstructed, he actually arrived soundlessly at the doorway of Ding Yao's room.
