Chapter 436: Chapter 436 It must have been done by Situ Xin (2)_1

"You fool. Didn’t your parents ever tell you that Capital City isn’t just any other small place? In Capital City, you might just pull someone with a powerful backing. You’ve only been in Capital City for a few days to study, and you’ve already caused such a big trouble for me," Old Master Xiao was infuriated after hearing what Liu Yuhan had to say. His anger surged out of control, no matter how he tried to suppress it. "If I had known, I wouldn’t have helped you secure a spot at Capital City University. You might as well have stayed in some small place."

Never in her life had Liu Yuhan seen her grandfather this furious. She was frightened by his fierce demeanor, and tears streamed down her cheeks incessantly, but she didn’t dare to make any more crying noises.

Xiao Yanlei hadn’t expected his sister Liu Yuhan to lie to him, and even worse, to make him cover for her with the family. He was deeply disappointed in Liu Yuhan. However, when he thought of Situ Xin’s face, he felt it was unlikely for someone with her appearance and family background to steal someone else’s boyfriend.

Xiao Yanlei was initially very disappointed in his sister Xiao Yanlei and was also angry with her. But seeing Liu Yuhan’s pitiful state and remembering how for so many years she had been the sister he had cherished and coddled, he began to feel a tug of sympathy. Just as he was about to say a few words in defense of his sister Liu Yuhan, his phone rang.

As soon as his phone rang, Old Master Xiao stopped scolding Liu Yuhan. Instead, he turned and glanced at Xiao Yanlei, saying, "Your phone’s ringing, aren’t you going to answer it quickly?"

"Yes," Xiao Yanlei hurriedly pulled out his phone and pressed the answer key.

Just as he pressed the answer key, before he could even bring the phone to his ear, he heard an urgent voice from the speaker: "Xiao Shao, you must save our Green Gang,"

Hearing the words from the other end of the phone, Xiao Yanlei cautiously glanced at his grandfather, and seeing Old Master Xiao frown, his heart involuntarily tightened. However, his actions did not pause, and he quickly put the phone to his ear: "Shi Tou, why are you coming to me with your Green Gang issues? I’m not involved with The Underworld."

"Xiao Shao, you must help me with this matter. Our Green Gang’s current plight is all because of the task you gave me today," said Shi Tou, the Leader of the Green Gang, as he looked at the challenge letter laid on the table by Dragon Society. He was filled with regret.

He knew the power of Dragon Society all too well; it was not something his small Green Gang could compare with. Further, the fact that several gangs had been defeated by Dragon Society and then expelled from Capital City was well known in The Underworld of Capital City.

"How is it related to the thing I asked you to do today?" Xiao Yanlei’s brow furrowed tighter.

"The girl you told me to send people to disfigure today has ties to Dragon Society. Now Dragon Society has sent a challenge letter, threatening to wipe out Green Gang from Capital City. Xiao Shao, you have to help us no matter what," Shi Tou was desperate, casting about for help. He felt that since Green Gang had drawn the ire of Dragon Society because of Xiao Yanlei, Xiao Yanlei was obliged to help him resolve the issue. "Besides, Xiao Shao, I don’t think you’d want the shady dealings we did together for Green Gang to be exposed, right? If those things come to light, I think it would ruin your future prospects." Shi Tou was laying everything on the line now for the sake of Green Gang, completely burning bridges with Xiao Yanlei.

"I understand. I’ll figure something out," Xiao Yanlei’s grip on the phone tightened, as if he were about to crush it altogether.

"What’s going on with Green Gang?" The Xiao Family had ties with Green Gang. Any matters that couldn’t be dealt with openly by the Xiao Family were handed over to Green Gang to handle.

"Before I personally went to the university today, I made a call and asked Green Gang to send a few people to Yuhan’s school to slash the face of the person who bullied her, as she requested. Now Dragon Society, because of this affair, has issued a challenge letter to Green Gang, threatening to make Green Gang disappear from Capital City," Xiao Yanlei paused before asking, "Grandfather, what’s the relationship between Situ Xin and Dragon Society? If it turns out that Situ Xin does have ties with Dragon Society, it would mean that she’s connected with the Gang, and we could leak this information. By then, Situ Xin, the Situ Family, the Loo Family..."

"Idiot. What do you usually do all day? Don’t you know who Situ Xin is? Even if you say she has ties to the Gang, it wouldn’t affect her in the slightest, nor the Situ Family or the Loo Family," Old Master Xiao glanced at Cao Mengqi in the hospital bed but refrained from revealing Situ Xin’s identity as the Dark Division Leader.

Situ Xin was the Dark Division Leader. The Dark Division was a special entity. It worked for the nation, but it wasn’t affiliated only with the legitimate side; it also had close ties with The Underworld. And these were matters even the highest leaders couldn’t openly discuss.

At this moment, Old Master Xiao’s head was throbbing with concerns. Now that Dragon Society had begun targeting Green Gang, did this mean that Situ Xin was angered and ready to unleash her sharp claws, dealing with those who had crossed her?

"Sir, you have a call," just as Old Master Xiao was entangled in thought, his bodyguard walked in, knocking on the door with a phone in hand.

"Who is it from?" Old Master Xiao asked with a frown.

"It’s Chief Situ’s call," said the bodyguard, who glanced carefully at Old Master Xiao, hesitating about whether to inform Old Master Xiao that Old Master Situ on the phone was clearly in a foul mood. When the bodyguard had answered the call, he had been met with a tirade from Old Master Situ before he could even speak.

"Situ?" Old Master Xiao repeated, taking the phone from the bodyguard. He hadn’t expected Old Master Situ to call him at this moment. It was known that he, Old Master Situ, and Old Master Loo were adversaries. Besides battles of words during meetings, they usually didn’t exchange a single word in private. Whenever they encountered each other, everyone’s faces would turn aside as if they hadn’t seen each other at all.

"Yes, it’s Chief Situ. His mood seems to be rather poor," the bodyguard decided to share his concerns.

Old Master Xiao was initially surprised to hear that his arch-nemesis, Old Master Situ, was calling him, but he quickly had an inkling of why Old Master Situ might be calling this time. He nodded to the bodyguard, indicating he had understood the message.
