The beautiful CEO falls in love with me
Chapter 416 - 416 403 A Mob

416: Chapter 403: A Mob 416: Chapter 403: A Mob The crimson blood made everyone’s mind tense.

Life itself was at stake, and Chen Gang’s tactic worked wonders, instantly stopping anyone from daring to flee.

They all stood rooted to the spot, afraid to move.

Chen Gang bellowed, “Charge for me, today we take down Golden Coast, ten thousand yuan and a woman for each of you!”

Under the lure of money and women, the underlings went berserk, their eyes bloodshot, rushing forward with all the strength they could muster.

“A rabble of riffraff!” Feng Zhixiao stood atop a small mound, watching the enemy charge up.

He immediately waved his hand, and suddenly, a volley of sharp arrows flew toward them.

When the arrows pierced through their bodies, spurting out fresh blood, the gang members quickly came to their senses.

In that instant, they realized how precious life truly was.

These people were a disorganized mob to begin with, quick to gather and just as quick to scatter.

After Feng Zhixiao and his men’s first volley of arrows, the others panicked and howled like ghosts and wolves, their morale instantly shaken.

Initially, only a dozen or so were wounded—with some shot in the chest, others in the arm, the thigh.

For a gang conflict, these were light injuries, but to them, it seemed they were fatally wounded.

“Run for it!”

“Damn it, what’s the use of the money, what’s the use of the woman if you have no life to enjoy them!”

Instantly, the Alliance Gang dispersed, with over two hundred members running away, leaving just a few dozen desperately resisting; and these were the former loyalists of the Alliance Gang.

The disorganized mob had nearly all disappeared, except for those wounded lying on the ground unable to move.

Those who could walk were long gone without a trace!

“God, has my Alliance Gang really come to an end?” Chen Gang suddenly burst into tears.

Money spent, people gone—the few dozen brothers left were those who had risen through the ranks with him.

And on the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s side, it seemed like they had an endless supply of fighters, as if they could never be fully killed off.

Chen Gang kicked at his follower in frustration and raged, “Brothers, to live as people, to die as ghosts.

There’s nothing to fear, charge with me!”

“Charge!” The remaining men charged forward.

Liu the Tyrant snorted coldly and, clutching a large saber, pounced toward Chen Gang.

Wearing a camo outfit, he looked extremely fierce.

Wherever he went, the underlings made way.

Liu the Tyrant, with his military boots, stomped viciously onto Chen Gang’s chest.

That one stomp packed hundreds of pounds of force.

Puhui…

Chen Gang spat out a mouthful of blood and tumbled down the mound.

A few Alliance Gang underlings hurried to his side and held him up, shouting, “Boss Chen!”

“We’ve lost!” Chen Gang spat another mouthful of blood, opening his eyes wearily.

Despite the endless regret in his breath and the defiant look in his eyes, it had to be said that the Alliance Gang’s fate was sealed.

“Boss, we haven’t lost yet, let’s retreat quickly.

As long as we have the green hills we need not worry about firewood!” his underling urged.

“It’s no use!” Chen Gang understood that his original decision was a mistake.

He shouldn’t have gone against the Heavenly Reversal Gang but should have followed the old gang leader and surrendered to them.

Perhaps by following Heavenly Reversal Gang’s lead, they could have conquered the world.

But now, it was clearly too late.

Chen Gang shook his head helplessly and said, “The Alliance Gang is no more!”

“Chen Gang, are you willing to surrender?” Feng Zhixiao stepped forward, blocking Liu the Tyrant who would probably rush up and finish Chen Gang otherwise.

From Chen Gang’s imposing manner just now, the man was indeed a good catch.

If he could be recruited, he might be useful in the future.

Chen Gang was taken aback and quickly asked, “You’re giving us a chance?”

“Of course!” Feng Zhixiao nodded and said, “Our Heavenly Reversal Gang never kills the innocent wantonly.

We always give those willing to repent a chance!”

“Good, I am willing to lead these brothers to join you!” Chen Gang immediately nodded.

“Very well!” Feng Zhixiao stepped forward and pulled Chen Gang up.

Chen Gang inhaled a sharp breath due to the pain, as Liu the Tyrant’s kick had broken two of his ribs.

Feng Zhixiao quickly called two underlings, “Come here, take Brother Chen to the hospital.

The other brothers of the Alliance Gang, return to Golden Coast, there’s good food and meat waiting for you!”

“Yes!” The crowd nodded in agreement.

The Alliance Gang ceased to exist.

Some insiders, like several middle-aged men and some underlings, refused to join the Heavenly Reversal Gang and pledged their allegiance to the Qiao Gang instead.

From then on, the Alliance Gang was no more, and the underworld of Tongzhou City sighed.

From this point, Tongzhou City’s underworld once again entered an era of two powers.

Between Qiao Gang and Heavenly Reversal Gang, who would conquer the world?

No one knew.

However, after that incident, the Heavenly Reversal Gang entered a long stalemate with the Qiao Gang, who also waited for an opening, neither too aggressive nor too docile.

The Qiao Gang began to employ past tactics, including intelligence warfare, attrition warfare, espionage, and various other dark conspiracies and tricks.

Qiao Si was an extremely meticulous man.

He understood that a dyke can be destroyed by an ant hole; he believed that no matter how strong the Heavenly Reversal Gang was, as long as he took it one step at a time, he would eventually bring them down.

While on the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s side, there wasn’t much energy left to deal with the Qiao Gang.

Therefore, Tongzhou City immediately fell into a deadlock.

On the surface, the Qiao Gang and the Heavenly Reversal Gang seemed to coexist peacefully, but, in the shadows, the undercurrents were turbulent.

Various dark schemes…

Ye Chen returned to Jianghuai City with Feng Zhixiao and others.

After all, the Heavenly Reversal Gang was based there.

Now, the Heavenly Reversal Gang’s influence in Jianghuai City was growing ever stronger.

Because the Heavenly Reversal Gang didn’t involve themselves in prostitution or drugs, the government side showed support.

Back when the Flame Dragon Gang was in power, most of the drug trafficking passed through Jianghuai City.

After all, Jianghuai City was just a small coastal city, incomparable to the stringent customs checks of Shenzhen.

In Jianghuai City, almost all the docks and ports were under gang control, and drug transit was just a matter of a verbal agreement.

The Heavenly Reversal Gang had garnered not only the support of the government but also that of the citizens.

Now in Jianghuai City, people didn’t even need to lock their doors.

Although petty thefts happened occasionally, major crimes were rare.

And if they ever occurred, citizens wouldn’t call the police but would instead seek out the Heavenly Reversal Gang for investigation.

It might cost money, but it was much more efficient than the police.

Thus, the Heavenly Reversal Gang took up quite a business.

The citizens of Jianghuai named them the underground 110.

Naturally, the police department was very willing for this arrangement.

It not only helped share their burden and relieve pressure but also reduced the crime rate in Jianghuai City.

A city’s crime rate is calculated based on the number of cases filed with the police.

So, as long as citizens didn’t call to report crimes, Jianghuai City could potentially become a model city in the next term.

Before realizing it, it was already July.

The warm breeze of Jianghuai City blew comfortably.

Ye Chen drove his Infiniti to pick up Liu Momo from school.

In the past half year, the little girl had developed further; her buttocks became perkier, and her chest more prominent, which Ye Chen found very tempting.

“Brother Chen, our summer break is coming up!” Liu Momo smiled at Ye Chen and said, “I’m planning to take a summer job with Li Wen and the others!”

“Oh, where are you going to work?

Why do you want to take a summer job?” Ye Chen was surprised and said, “If you need money, just ask Brother Chen.

Why work?

I was planning on taking care of you for a lifetime anyway!”

Liu Momo blushed at Ye Chen’s words.

She felt very happy inside.

Pouting, she said, “Taking a summer job is a way to challenge myself!

I don’t want to be someone who’s useless to society.

I don’t want Brother Chen to take care of me for a lifetime.

I want to be the one who takes care of Brother Chen for a lifetime!

So, I need to work more, to experience life!”

“Alright, you make the call!” Ye Chen grinned and replied, “If you’re unhappy with the job, just tell Brother Chen, okay?”

“Mhm!” Liu Momo nodded her head.

Ye Chen stepped on the gas, and the car sped off.

At Tianya Group, Li Ruo was hard at work when she looked up and saw the calendar on her desk marked with a red label on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month.

Taking a deep breath, she said, “Dad, today is the Ghost Festival; I should go visit you.”

It was already mid-July, which in China is a day of remembrance for the deceased, a day to offer comfort to the spirits by presenting them with offerings.

Li Ruo stood up from her desk and dialed Ye Chen’s number.

At that moment, Ye Chen was having a meal.

He hurriedly went out to the balcony when he received the call: “Hello, Xiao Ruo, what’s up?”

“Are you not coming to work today?” Li Ruo hummed.

“Ah, haven’t I been tied up with the construction site lately?” Ye Chen laughed and added, “It seems I’m a deputy manager, but in reality, I’m just a foreman.

What a miserable life, eh!”

Pfft…

Li Ruo giggled; Ye Chen’s self-pity made her couldn’t help but laugh.

She hummed, “No swearing allowed!”

“Right, I’ll refrain from swearing in front of Xiao Ruo from now on!” Ye Chen immediately nodded in agreement.

“Good!” Li Ruo smiled lightly and said, “Ye Chen, today is the Ghost Festival, the fifteenth of July.

Come with me to visit my dad in the afternoon, will you?”

“The Ghost Festival already, eh?

Okay, I’ll come find you in the afternoon!” Ye Chen nodded right away.
