Chapter 548: Chapter 549 Greediness_1

"So, aren’t we about to strike it rich!" Upon hearing Brother Cao’s analysis, Xiao Shan immediately got excited, "This time, Young Master Jiang and Young Master Yan have put out a reward of 300,000 units. If we find Li Changlin’s whereabouts, then isn’t that..."

Thinking of this, Xiao Shan couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.

Truth be told, as small-time hoodlums, they only earned about 30 to 50 thousand a year.

If they could get the reward from Young Master Jiang and Young Master Yan, that would truly be a large sum!

"Look at you all giddy!" The lead thug snorted coldly and then patted Xiao Shan on the shoulder, "Li Changlin himself has tens of millions on him. A reward of 300,000 is peanuts to that."

"Oh right, how does that guy have so much money!" At this realization, Xiao Shan’s eyes widened in shock, having completely forgotten about this detail.

"Hehe, who cares how he got so much money; he’s offended both Young Master Jiang and Young Master Yan, Li Changlin is definitely in for a bad time. But before we deal with him, we’ve got to figure out how to get our hands on the money he’s got!" The leader of the thugs too swallowed his saliva and then pondered, "But Li Changlin is tough, on our own, we can’t take him down."

"Then, what do we do?" Xiao Shan was immediately dumbfounded upon hearing this.

Yeah, Li Changlin was too formidable, and they were no match for him.

"It looks like we must get the boss involved for this matter," the lead thug stroked his chin, thought for a bit, and soon had an idea.

Therefore, the lead thug hurriedly called his boss Zhou Jian.

Zhou Jian, one of the bosses of the West City Thirteen Constructions gang, was currently playing cards with a few other bosses. As soon as he got the call from his subordinate with information on Li Changlin’s whereabouts and the suspicion that Li Changlin was carrying tens of millions, he immediately pushed his cards away and laughed loudly, "No more playing, no more playing. We’ve got work to do."

"Big Ten, what’s up that’s got you so happy?" Old Eight Chen Jian, who had the closest relationship with Zhou Jian, saw him push away his cards and hurriedly asked with a smile.

"It’s about Li Changlin," Zhou Jian didn’t conceal anything as they were all brothers. Even he wasn’t sure he could pull it off alone; they needed to strategize together.

"Looks like Li Changlin isn’t simple," the others began analyzing immediately after Zhou Jian finished speaking.

"Since Cao Qing has already identified that taxi’s license plate, let’s start by tracking down clues from the taxi driver," they quickly discussed and reached a conclusion. Since this was an opportunity discovered by Zhou Jian’s subordinate, the task of tracking down clues also fell on him.

"Alright, I’ll head over to the taxi company first," Zhou Jian didn’t refuse. As per usual, if this worked out, he’d be able to take half of Li Changlin’s funds.

That kid Cao Qing had some merit, and of course, he’d get a share too.

But the lion’s share would go to Zhou Jian. Stepping up a bit more now was only natural.

Unbeknownst to him that he was being targeted, Li Changlin went back home by taxi with Ye Xiyao. At this moment, Qian Ziwei and Luo Tianyi were out.

"Business hours haven’t started yet, where could they have gone!" Li Changlin didn’t think too much about it and quickly put it out of his mind.

After finding a suitcase in the bedroom, Li Changlin began packing.

"Brother Changlin, let me handle the packing. You book the plane tickets," seeing Li Changlin busy, Ye Xiyao took over the task of organizing.

Li Changlin didn’t object, he pulled out his phone, opened the website and started booking flights, "Xi Yao, when shall we leave?"

"Let’s leave tomorrow, it’s too late for today," Ye Xiyao suggested while sorting clothes.

Li Changlin responded, and then asked Ye Xiyao for her identity information before booking two plane tickets.

Soon, Ye Xiyao had her luggage packed as well, and Li Changlin boiled some hot water in the kitchen, preparing to give Ye Xiyao her medicine.

After they finished their work, the time had reached a little past eleven, and Li Changlin guessed that Qian Ziwei was about to open the restaurant, so he took Ye Xiyao downstairs.

Upon exiting the residential complex and arriving at the food store, they saw that the door was still firmly shut, so Li Changlin took out his cellphone and dialed Qian Ziwei’s number.

"Ziwei, why haven’t you opened the door yet? Where did you and Tian Yi go?" The call quickly connected, and Li Changlin hurriedly asked.

"I’m on my way back. I just dropped Tian Yi off at Ziyu’s place." Qian Ziwei’s voice held a hint of disappointment, but Li Changlin didn’t think much of it.

"Then hurry back, Xiyao and I are hungry," Li Changlin urged and then hung up the phone.

Afterward, he proceeded to take Ye Xiyao back home.

"Li Changlin." Suddenly, someone shouted.

Li Changlin was slightly startled and instinctively turned his head, looking in the direction of the voice.

At this moment, Li Changlin was not wearing a mask.

"It is you indeed."

"Haha, that’s Li Changlin."

"Quick, quick, don’t let him get away!"

A group of people approached with aggressive momentum, there must have been at least dozens of them.

Li Changlin, upon seeing this, unconsciously furrowed his brow.

He had recognized the two leading figures; they were two of the three thugs he had encountered outside Jinguang Plaza before.

Since one of them had had his arm dislocated by a kick from Li Changlin, the injured thug had gone to the hospital for treatment and therefore didn’t come along.

"Brother Changlin," it was Ye Xiyao who also recognized the two leading figures. Seeing that about a dozen thugs had arrived all of a sudden, panic immediately surged within her, "Brother Changlin, let’s call the police!"

"It’s useless, by the time the police arrive, they would have already run away," Li Changlin gently patted Ye Xiyao’s shoulder to reassure her, but he didn’t show any intention of calling the police.

"Then you should run fast, there are so many of them!" Ye Xiyao’s face was stricken with panic; with the enemies in such vast numbers, she didn’t believe Li Changlin could handle them.

"Why should I run? They are just a bunch of thugs, there’s nothing to be afraid of." Seeing the panicked look on Ye Xiyao’s face, Li Changlin quickly wrapped his arms around her, saying softly.

"But, but they have weapons." Ye Xiyao had noticed that among those people, many were holding steel pipes and iron rods as weapons.

She even spotted that two people were carrying controlled items.

The sight of those meter-long machetes turned Ye Xiyao’s face pale with fear.

"It’s my fault, if we hadn’t gone to buy clothes, we wouldn’t have run into them." Ye Xiyao clung tightly to Li Changlin’s arm, her voice choking with emotion.

"It’s okay, they are no match for me," Li Changlin gently patted Ye Xiyao’s shoulder, his expression unchanged, appearing very composed.
