Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 202 - 202 198 The True Crisis Approaches

202: Chapter 198: The True Crisis Approaches 202: Chapter 198: The True Crisis Approaches Xiao Yichen left the Yun Qi clubhouse, drove home, and waited for the good news from Zhou Hongzhi.

But no matter how long he waited, Zhou Hongzhi didn’t call.

Around midnight, he finally lost his patience and called Zhou Hongzhi.

“What’s going on?

Weren’t you supposed to call me after you taught Ye Fan a lesson?” Xiao Yichen asked, slightly annoyed.

Zhou Hongzhi, having been slapped five times by Ye Fan and forced to send Ye Fan and He Lian Bobo ten million, was feeling depressed and angry about how to explain this to his father.

Now, with Xiao Yichen calling and questioning him so high-handedly, Zhou Hongzhi’s anger flared up.

“Damn it, I always go along with you, and you think you’re the Crown Prince, ordering me around!

If it weren’t for you fanning the flames, would I have been so unlucky tonight?

I might have lost face, but don’t think you’ll get off scot-free!” Zhou Hongzhi thought, full of resentment and anger.

Then, he suppressed his anger and said, “Xiao Shao, I lost track of that guy.

Searched for half the night and couldn’t find him.

I was just about to call you.”

“What?

You lost him?” Xiao Yichen was stunned and then burst out, “Are you a pig!

You can’t even handle a simple task!”

Zhou Hongzhi felt a surge of fury and retorted through gritted teeth, “If you’re so capable, why don’t you do it yourself!”

When Xiao Yichen heard Zhou Hongzhi’s retort, he became furious, but just as he was about to lash out, he suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly calmed himself, “Hongzhi, sorry, I lost my composure just now.”

“Heh, it’s no big deal.” Zhou Hongzhi didn’t dare to completely fall out with him and forced a laugh, “If there’s nothing else, I’m going to hang up and rest.

It’s been a tiring night.”

“Alright.

Good night,” Xiao Yichen said.

“Good night.”

After hanging up, Zhou Hongzhi snorted to himself, “I’m not going to tell you that Ye Fan is very skilled!

Others say you’re magnanimous, but I’ve seen through your petty-heartedness long ago.

Go and find trouble with Ye Fan; I’ll be waiting to watch your drama!”

On Wednesday morning at 9:10, Ye Fan suddenly received a text message.

Checking it, it was a bank notification showing an additional ten million in his bank account.

Holding his phone, Ye Fan stepped out of the office toward the safety staircase at the end of the corridor and dialed He Lian Bobo’s number.

The call connected quickly, and a pleasant, giggling voice came through, “Hehe, Brother Ye.”

“Hmm,” Ye Fan responded, smiling, “Zhou Hongzhi has transferred the money into my bank account.

Send me your bank details when you’re free, and I’ll transfer five million to you.”

“Hehe, you don’t have to.

That money was meant to compensate you, why give it to me?” He Lian Bobo laughed playfully, “Besides, I’m not short of cash.”

Ye Fan smiled, “Brothers should settle accounts clearly.

If it weren’t for you last night, Zhou Hongzhi would never have been willing to part with so much money.

And if you hadn’t stood up to him, he might have turned around and accused me of extortion by calling the police.

I wouldn’t have gotten a dime.

I’m already taking advantage of you with the five million I’m getting.”

“Really, you don’t have to,” He Lian Bobo sincerely thought of Ye Fan’s interest, “Keep the money for yourself.

Then consider investing it or using it to start a company or business.

That way, you won’t have to work for others.”

Hearing He Lian Bobo actually considering his future path, Ye Fan felt warmth in his heart and smiled, “I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you.

I’m the laziest person around.

Thinking of starting a company and doing business gives me a headache.

I prefer being a white-collar worker, getting a salary every month, and not worrying about the company closing even if I slack off.”

“Send me your bank details, or next time I see you, I’ll just give you five million in cash,” Ye Fan said in an undeniable tone.

“Okay then, I’ll send it to you later,” He Lian Bobo reluctantly agreed.

After that, the two had a casual chat and then hung up.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan had just stepped out of the safety staircase when his cell phone suddenly rang.

Taking it out, he saw it was from Nie Yuling.

So, Ye Fan went back inside the safety staircase.

“Heh, Nie Yuling,” Ye Fan answered the call with a light chuckle.

From the phone came Nie Yuling’s crisp and indifferent voice, “Ye Fan, after tonight, my people will withdraw from the Heroic Bar.

Have you found someone to replace them?”

Reminded by Nie Yuling, Ye Fan remembered that he had acquired Heroic Bar almost a week ago.

“Not yet.

After your people leave, just shut the bar down for the time being,” said Ye Fan.

“Tell the staff to stay on, awaiting notice to resume business.

In the meantime, their wages will be paid as usual.”

Lu Chengqiang had already entered semi-house arrest in Hua Hai military district and would need a few days for the review process.

Regarding the security team of the Heroic Bar, firstly, he didn’t have the energy to recruit people, and secondly, the security team would be the foundation for Lu Chengqiang in the future.

It wasn’t his place to interfere.

“That’s fine,” said Nie Yuling.

“But I must remind you that even if the bar is closed, the Green Wolf gang might still break in and vandalize the place.

You can still back out now, at most you’ll lose two million.”

“Heh, I’m not afraid of the Green Wolf gang,” Ye Fan said indifferently.

“Fine then.

But you need to transfer the balance into my account today,” Nie Yuling continued.

“No problem,” Ye Fan replied.

After a moment of silence, Nie Yuling said, “If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up.”

“Wait,” called Ye Fan.

“What is it?” asked Nie Yuling.

Ye Fan said earnestly, “I still hold to my word.

When you need help, call me, and you’ll be in for a surprise.”

“Thanks,” Nie Yuling replied, unimpressed, and then she hung up.

At almost the same time, in the general manager’s office of Sky Wolf Security Company, Liu Tianxi received a call from Zheng Hu.

“Brother Xi, I’ve found the person you asked me to look for,” Zheng Hu said.

“He’s asking for thirty million.

He won’t kill, just cripple the target.

But there’s one condition: you must eliminate Ye Fan immediately afterwards, leaving no survivors.”

Liu Tianxi laughed heartily, “No problem!

We’ve been wanting to take him out!

But, are you sure your guy can handle Ye Fan?

I remember you saying that Ye Fan is pretty tough.”

“Heh, don’t worry.

There won’t be any issues.

The guy I found is two levels higher than Ye Fan in martial arts and has plenty of combat experience,” Zheng Hu confidently stated.

The ancient martial artist he found was a master of the later stages of hidden energy, around forty years old which is the peak of a martial artist’s power, both strong and experienced in combat.

Liu Tianxi burst into laughter, “With your word, I’m relieved.

When will this master arrive?”

“In a week!”

After finishing the call with Zheng Hu, Liu Tianxi immediately called another big shot of the Green Wolf gang, He Youchang.

Upon receiving the news, He Youchang was overjoyed and laughed loudly, “Excellent, I’ve been waiting eagerly.

Since that kid Ye Fan is as good as dead, then I’ll continue to take over and absorb the Qingmu gang!

Heh heh, Nie Yuling, that little chick looks quite enticing.

Once I get my hands on her, I’ll definitely train her into a sex slave!”
