Chapter 287: Chapter 253: [Victorious King, Defeated Bandit, Two Pairs of Fathers and Sons]
"Let... let me go!"
As they walked, Su Yuxin in Zhao Meng’s hands seemed to notice the shocked gazes around her. She suddenly snapped back to reality from the shock, struggling and roaring at Zhao Meng.
Whoosh!
Without a response, Zhao Meng simply released Su Yuxin.
Thump—
Caught off guard, Su Yuxin fell to the ground in an embarrassing face-first tumble, looking absolutely wretched.
"Uh..."
The people in the hallway first came to their senses and then stared at Zhao Meng in horrified shock, as if asking: How much confidence does one need to dare to treat Su Yuxin this way?
Feeling those astonished glances, Zhao Meng couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. For him, if Ye Fan hadn’t dug this hole to completely bury Su Yuxin, even if he had grievances against the Ye Family, he would never have treated Su Yuxin this way.
"Zhao... Zhao Meng..."
Just as Zhao Meng sighed, Bai Luo scrambled up from the ground and glared at Zhao Meng with fury.
Zhao Meng completely ignored Bai Luo’s anger and scoffed, interrupting him: "Director Bai, I told you earlier, to save your face, to walk by yourself. But you didn’t, and I had to take you along. As for just now, you asked me to let you go."
"You..." Bai Luo pointed at Zhao Meng, nearly passing out.
"Let’s go, Director Bai."
Zhao Meng made a please gesture with a smile, polite in appearance, but Bai Luo knew all too well that if he didn’t follow Zhao Meng, he would undoubtedly be taken away by force.
Realizing all this, Bai Luo didn’t make a scene in front of his subordinates. Instead, he followed Zhao Meng with a fierce look on his face.
At the office entrance, Wang Zhong saw this scene, felt something stir within him, turned back into the office and took out his cellphone to make a call.
"Hello."
"Master Lin, is Secretary Bai with you?"
"Yes, what’s up?"
On the other end of the phone, Lin Tong, who doubled as Bai Guotao’s chauffeur and assistant, drove while frowning and asking.
"Lord Bai is in trouble, I need to talk to Secretary Bai," said Wang Zhong, aware of the urgency, cutting straight to the chase without a moment’s delay.
"Uh... Okay!"
Startled, Lin Tong quickly agreed, slowed down the car, handed the phone to Bai Guotao, who was resting with his eyes closed in the back seat, and said, "Secretary Bai, Wang Zhong said Lord Bai is in trouble and wants to talk to you."
Whoosh!
At the sound of bodyguard Lin Tong’s words, Bai Guotao’s eyes snapped open and his expression changed suddenly, he took the phone with a frown and asked with tightly knitted brows, "What’s happened to Xiao Luo?"
"Secretary Bai, Lord Bai was just taken away by the head of the Yanhuang Organization East Sea Branch, Zhao Meng," replied Wang Zhong, somewhat anxiously.
"What... what?"
Bai Guotao was shocked, then immediately thought of something, but asked in disbelief, "Why would Zhao Meng take away Xiao Luo? Did he break Yanhuang Organization’s rules and retaliated against Ye Wenhao’s son?"
"Yes, Secretary Bai."
"That bastard!"
Despite being somewhat prepared, Bai Guotao was so enraged by Wang Zhong’s confirmation that he cursed, his face turning ashen. He then demanded, "What exactly happened?"
"Secretary Bai, there are three videos about Lord Bai online. You’ll understand once you’ve seen them," said Wang Zhong, intending to explain, but realizing the complexity of the matter was too great to make clear in a short time, so he suggested Bai Guotao watch the videos himself.
Videos?
Bai Guotao’s mind raced, without a second word, he ended the call, opened the browser on his phone, entered the search page, and typed in Bai Luo’s name with a slight unease.
Whoosh—
With a clear sound, the screen flashed, and the search results appeared.
"Public servant colludes with foreign powers to poison the chairman of Dong hai Group."
"Government official in cahoots with foreign underground forces, where is the law?"
...
Seeing the two top search result titles, Bai Guotao felt his blood rush to his head and nearly fainted from anger.
Then, with trembling fingers, he clicked on the first link and immediately saw three video links.
Without hesitating, Bai Guotao clicked on the first video.
After brief buffering, the video opened with the scene of Bai Luo recklessly calling Chen Feilian, the conversation echoing through the previously quiet car via speakerphone.
"Uh..."
Dumbfounded by the conversation between Bai Luo and Chen Feilian, Lin Tong, the chauffeur, gasped and nearly drove into the greenery as he was caught off guard.
"This... This idiot!"
Meanwhile, Bai Guotao cursed through gritted teeth, so furious he almost smashed his phone.
After watching the first video, he forced himself to calm down and watch the second and third videos.
Hissss~
When he saw the Shi Ling and Shi Feng brothers testifying in the third video that Bai Luo had hired Chen Feilian to assassinate Ye Fan, Bai Guotao’s breathing quickened and his expression darkened to a terrifying degree, his brows furrowed together in a ’川’ shape.
He knew very well that with this third video, the irrefutable evidence of Bai Luo’s collusion with foreign forces to hire assassins would be set in stone!
Besides this, with his vision and pattern, he naturally could see that if this matter wasn’t handled well, it could implicate the entire Ye Family!
"Go to the Yanhuang Organization East Sea Branch, quickly!"
Having realized this, Bai Guotao, burning with rage, tried his best to control his emotions and urgently said to Lin Tong.
"Yes, Secretary Bai!"
Although Lin Tong hadn’t seen the video, through the conversation in the video, he had also judged the seriousness of the matter, and without hesitation, accepted the order, flooring the accelerator and heading straight for the Yanhuang Organization East Sea Branch.
Ao Xiang Villa.
Su Yuxin, Su Liuli, and Situ Ruoshui had left early in the morning after the danger was eliminated, among them, Su Yuxin went to the Tianshan Group’s East Sea branch, whereas Su Liuli and Situ Ruoshui both went to school, only Chu Ji stayed behind.
In a villa of the mountain villa, Chu Ji stood on the balcony, looking at Ye Fan’s villa, and answered a phone call.
"Do you know what happened to Xiao Fan?"
The caller was Ye Wenhao, who had just learned about Bai Luo scheming with Qinghong to assassinate Ye Fan. He tried to call Ye Fan but couldn’t get through, so he called Chu Ji.
"Of course, I am at Ao Xiang Villa." Chu Ji laughed.
"Whew~"
Hearing Chu Ji’s response, Ye Wenhao subconsciously assumed that Chu Ji had helped Ye Fan deal with Shi Feng and Shi Ling, and he breathed a sigh of relief, asking, "Did you set this trap, or was it Xiao Fan?"
"It was him."
Thinking about the trap Ye Fan had set, Chu Ji couldn’t help but secretly marvel, praising without cease, "After that girl named Su Liuli had an issue, he started setting this trap—using his enemy’s own strategy against the daughter of Guan Yi, Guan Lin, in order to provoke Bai Luo, luring Bai Luo into the trap and kicking him into the abyss. This trap was linked in every aspect, with deadly stakes at every turn!"
"The trap may be exquisite, but it’s also very risky. If you hadn’t been there, it would have been very dangerous for him." Ye Wenhao voiced his admiration, but he also felt a bit anxious.
"Dangerous?"
Chu Ji smiled bitterly, "Your son isn’t as weak as you think—he set the trap, he executed it, and I was merely a spectator."
"Spectator?" Ye Wenhao was startled, "You mean that Xiao Fan personally dealt with those two Black Dragon Guards?"
"Correct. At first, I was also worried since those two not only had a Combined Attack but also knew Chen Daozang’s supreme skill ’Shadowless Yin Demon Slash.’ But he confidently told me that he could handle it, so I let him do it."
Remembering the fierce battle Ye Fan had with Shi Feng and Shi Ling last night, Chu Ji clicked her tongue, "He not only defeated those two Black Dragon Guards, but he also used the High-level Technique ’Puppetry Technique’ to control them and create ironclad evidence!"
"——"
Ye Wenhao was stunned; he simply couldn’t imagine how Ye Fan had gained such strength in such a short time.
After all, according to Chu Ji, Ye Fan was now vastly stronger than on the day at Ao Xiang Villa when his Dantian was destroyed by Lu Wen.
"Although he did it, I plan to take the blame for him." Seeing that Ye Wenhao didn’t speak, Chu Ji smiled slyly.
"You mean?" Ye Wenhao was puzzled.
"In a while, I plan to join him at the Yanhuang Organization to make a statement." Chu Ji smiled like a fox.
Ye Wenhao suddenly understood, "You plan to let the Yanhuang Organization and the outside world think that those two Black Dragon Guards were defeated by you?"
"Hmm, to let Xiao Fan shine in next year’s Qing bang competition, I’m planning to let him keep a low profile."
At this point, Chu Ji’s smile grew even brighter, "By then, whether it be those so-called martial arts geniuses, or those old monsters hoping to gain face through their disciples, seeing Xiao Fan dominating all around will certainly produce priceless expressions!"
"That’s a good idea. Let’s not talk about the Qing bang competition for now; standing out too much is never a good thing." Ye Wenhao agreed with Chu Ji’s suggestion.
"He’s about to arrive here, do you want to talk to him?" Chu Ji, seeing Ye Fan driving that Rolls-Royce Phantom Presidential Edition toward the villa, suddenly asked.
"Forget it."
Ye Wenhao, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but recall the day he met Ye Fan at the entrance of Tan Palace Villa; after a long silence, he ultimately refused the tempting offer and hung up the phone.
"Sigh..."
Chu Ji sighed softly, then after thinking for a bit, made a decision, put away her phone, and with a leap, jumped down from the balcony, gracefully landing.
Soon after, Ye Fan drove up, parking the car in front of Chu Ji.
"Ye Wenhao just called me to ask about your situation. He was worried you were injured. He originally tried to call you, but couldn’t get through, so he called me."
Chu Ji got into the car, saying with mixed intentions, "When he found out you weren’t injured and that you had defeated those two Black Dragon Guards, he was shocked and thrilled."
"Oh."
Ye Fan, upon hearing this, was silent for several seconds before responding lightly.
He seemed unconcerned, but the frantic twitching of the muscles around his eyes and his hands trembling slightly on the steering wheel betrayed his truest feelings!
A few minutes later, that Rolls-Royce Phantom Presidential Edition left Ao Xiang Villa and headed towards the Yanhuang Organization East Sea Branch.
In the car, Ye Fan, while driving, recalled his first visit to the Yanhuang Organization East Sea Office.
That time.
He was brought there as a suspect, and Ye Wenhao didn’t follow, but behind the scenes, he made the decision to give up everything and have a showdown with the Bai Family to save him.
Today.
As a victor, he went there again, and Ye Wenhao was proud of him!
