Chapter 548: 546 Chapter - At All Costs

"Are you going alone?"

Situ Qingfeng’s eyes widened as he looked at Xiao Yi, "Otherwise, boss, if you don’t want Xiaomei to know your identity, I can make a call home and have them send some experts to help you. You can rest assured, they will definitely keep your identity a secret."

"No need, I’ve said it before, I prefer to work alone."

Xiao Yi waved his hand, refusing Situ Qingfeng’s earnest advice. Seeing Situ Qingfeng still looked worried, he couldn’t help but glare at him, "Don’t you know my strength yet? Don’t worry, it’s actually more convenient for me to be alone. Plus, unlike you, if I encounter danger, even if I can’t beat them, I can still run away, right?"

"This... That makes sense."

Listening to Xiao Yi’s words, Situ Qingfeng thought about it and felt it made sense. This time, had it not been for the need to ensure the safety of those police officers, he wouldn’t have gotten injured. With that in mind, he no longer insisted but still reminded, "Boss, just be careful, and call me anytime you need; my phone’s always on."

"Hmm, don’t worry. Oh, are you going to stay here to recover, or are you going back?"

Xiao Yi nodded; he had already planned to do as Situ Qingfeng suggested, although he liked to handle things alone and more efficiently, there were still some aftermath matters that would require the police’s help. Before, his way of dealing would be to use a public phone booth to make anonymous calls, but now with Situ Qingfeng’s high-ranking official status, things needn’t be so complicated.

"This... I should probably go back first."

Situ Qingfeng pondered for a moment and then decided to return to the place arranged for him by the Public Security Department of G Province.

It wasn’t that he felt uncomfortable here; he had no need to stand on ceremony with Xiao Yi. But he had rushed out so hastily this time, he was worried that Zeng Xiaomei and the others might be concerned. Moreover, staying at the Public Security Department seemed more convenient.

This house might look extremely luxurious, but from what he had observed since he entered, he believed that Xiao Yi lived alone without any housekeepers. Living here alone would just invite trouble.

He was unlike Xiao Yi, who was handy around the house. He was the typical type who couldn’t even cook fried rice.

"Hmm, it’s also more convenient to stay there. Then I won’t keep you. From tomorrow, just come here every evening for your medicine. If I’m not around, I’ll leave the medicine underneath."

Xiao Yi nodded and didn’t try to persuade him further; he also thought it would be more convenient for Situ Qingfeng to stay there.

Because in the following days, he probably wouldn’t spend much time here, and living alone in this unfamiliar place wasn’t very convenient.

"Okay!"

Situ Qingfeng nodded and then headed toward the door. After a few steps, he remembered something and asked Xiao Yi, "Boss, when do you plan to leave?"

"Tomorrow," Xiao Yi replied, a hint of strangeness flashing in his eyes but his face showed only a slight smile.

"Hmm, then be careful."

Situ Qingfeng once again solemnly advised Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi nodded, a slight smile appeared on his face. He was very confident about his own safety; with his current strength, unless he faced someone above the middle tier of the Condensation period, he would definitely come out unscathed.

This time, I will definitely uproot them completely!

Watching Situ Qingfeng leave, Xiao Yi’s gaze turned sharp and cold. He then turned and headed back into the villa. He didn’t walk toward the villa’s main entrance but instead headed directly towards the garage.

In just a moment, a long-stored, bright red Maserati slowly drove out of the garage.

"Young Master Xiao, are you going out this late!"

Seeing Xiao Yi driving the bright red Maserati, the security guard at the gate couldn’t help but show a look of surprise. In his memory, Xiao Yi seldom drove this car.

"Yes, I have some things to take care of," Xiao Yi replied. After a moment, he added, "I probably won’t come back tonight, I have to go on a long trip. Please keep an eye on things here."

"Please rest assured, Young Master Xiao. I will definitely take good care of the villa and the Miss."

The security guard nodded earnestly.

Seeing the serious expression on the security guard’s face, Xiao Yi smiled slightly, signaled to him, and said nothing further. He then slowly pressed on the accelerator. The bright red Maserati traced a vivid line, blending into the night ahead.

"Uncle Fei, are you sure that Situ Qingfeng was injured?"

In a villa in G City, a tall, handsome man with a shadowy gaze held a uniquely designed mobile phone that definitely couldn’t be seen on the market.

"Yes, I’m sure."

On the other end of the phone, a man with ordinary looks and a face exuding a peaceful and refined aura was holding a mobile phone. His tone slightly respectful, he said, "He should be lying in bed for a while."

The young man nodded, a sinister expression crossing his face. This Situ Qingfeng was truly detestable. Previously, when he heard that Situ Qingfeng had gone there, he thought that this young master of the Situ family might just take a look for some time, find nothing, and give up. However, he never expected that he would stay there and has been causing absolute chaos there, severely hindering his business from progressing.

Moreover, fatally, this guy was actually quite skilled at investigating. They had been extremely cautious, but as soon as he made a move, he had detected traces of their activities.

Hmph, just let him lie down for a while and he will learn that there are some matters he cannot control!

If it wasn’t for the fact that he was from the Situ family, this time, they would have dealt with him directly!

Hmph, consider him lucky!

In his heart, the young man snorted coldly.

"Young Master, doing this now, won’t it cause any trouble?"

On the phone, the middle-aged man hesitated and then expressed his concern.

"He’s not in any life-threatening condition, is he?"

The young man was silent for a while before he spoke gravely.

"No, I measured my actions; I just injured some of his meridians. It won’t endanger his life."

The middle-aged man quickly shook his head.

"As long as it isn’t life-threatening, that’s fine."

The young man sighed with relief and said dismissively before swiftly changing the subject, "Uncle Fei, how’s business going?"

"With that Situ Qingfeng constantly causing trouble here, I’ve instructed our people to lay low; they haven’t dared to make any moves, and up to now, we’ve only secured about 20 in total."

Upon hearing the young man’s question, the middle-aged man’s face immediately turned solemn.

"Only twenty?"

The young man almost thought he had misheard and it took a moment before he showed a look of disappointment and spoke.

"Yes, Young Master, we have barely made any moves during this period."

The middle-aged man’s face showed a look of shame.

"Uncle Fei, hurry up. They are putting too much pressure on us, and we don’t have much time left. If we can’t deliver on time, you know what kind of situation we will all face."

The young man’s face showed a worried expression as he spoke.

"Understood, Young Master, I will speed things up," Master Fei replied sternly, quickly nodding his head.

"Hmm, Uncle Fei, let’s execute a blitz in the next few days. Solve it quickly and then withdraw. Let’s get past this hurdle first, and we can talk about other things later!"

The young man nodded and was about to hang up the phone, but just as he was about to put the phone down, he seemed to suddenly remember something, bit his lip and his eyes flashed with a resolute expression as he spoke earnestly.

"Understood!"

The middle-aged man’s expression changed once again; he understood the meaning behind the young man’s words - they were ready to pay any price to complete the mission this time, even if it meant completely destroying the setup in G Province. It seemed that the pressure from the other side this time was indeed tremendous!

After a while, he took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.

After hanging up the phone, his expression fluctuated for a moment before he quickly picked up the phone again.

"Order everyone to go all out starting today. Within five days, no matter what, we need to gather two hundred units, otherwise, don’t blame me for being unkind!"

As soon as the call connected, he sternly issued the command, his face no longer showing any hint of his scholarly aura, but rather, it was replaced with a terrifying murderous and hostile aura.

The nightscape of G City had its own unique charm, especially when viewed from the city-circling highway above, the rows of streetlights neatly arranged, occasionally illuminated by the brilliantly decorated skyscrapers, and the river views of Red River on both sides...

Everything was showing another incomparable charm of G City at night...

However, Xiao Yi, speeding on the highway, had no interest in these beautiful night scenes. His mind was occupied with how to use the information provided by Situ Qingfeng to track down those utterly conscienceless bastards upon reaching his destination. (To be continued.
