Chapter 279 - 279 279 The Strategy of Attacking as Defense

279: Chapter 279: The Strategy of Attacking as Defense 279: Chapter 279: The Strategy of Attacking as Defense Because Luo Lin lost face at the conference due to Xiang Yu, he harbored an even greater hatred for him.

Originally, he did not believe that Han Guohua was killed by Xiang Yu, as in his opinion, Xiang Yu didn’t have the capability.

However, during the conflict, he witnessed Xiang Yu’s strength and noticed his habit of eating peanuts, so he became suspicious of Xiang Yu.

After a targeted investigation, he found out that Xiang Yu and his crew were indeed the most suspicious, and then he rushed over here.

Standing beside Miao Honglei, Pan Wenjie instantly perked up upon hearing this.

Not to mention that Han Guohua was his major subordinate, just the fact that Xiang Yu threatened his own status was enough for him to want Xiang Yu dead.

“Bring people over, and arrest the three of them,” Pan Wenjie shouted, seeing an opportunity to take Xiang Yu down.

“What evidence do you have that we killed him?” Xiang Yu calmly asked.

Luo Lin snorted coldly, then said, “I found peanut shells at the scene initially.

After investigation, we found you like to eat peanuts, and you were there at that time slot, so if not you, then who else could it be?”

After hearing this, Xiang Yu was speechless, then shook his head and laughed, “You idiot, just because I like to eat peanuts, you say I’m the murderer?

Then I might as well say it’s you.

They were shot dead, you carry a gun every day, so in my view, it’s you.”

Standing aside, Pan Wenjie didn’t want to listen to Xiang Yu’s nonsense and signaled his men to take down the three.

He didn’t care who killed Han Guohua; he just wanted Xiang Yu.

“Who dares?” That’s when Tie Zhuzi suddenly glared and stood out, saying.

Everyone around knew they were skilled in fighting, so for a moment, no one dared to rush forward.

“You useless bunch, I told you to arrest them,” Pan Wenjie roared furiously.

Seeing Pan Wenjie getting angry, those men had no choice but to reluctantly step forward.

“Stop,” just then, Miao Honglei finally shouted out and then looked coldly at Pan Wenjie and said, “I’m the one who calls the shots here.”

Feeling Miao Honglei’s gaze, Pan Wenjie’s heart skipped a beat.

He had gotten so carried away with wanting to kill Xiang Yu that he had forgotten about the boss.

At this moment, Miao Honglei looked at Xiang Yu with a serious face and asked, “Do you have anything to say?”

Xiang Yu coldly laughed and calmly said, “I’d like to ask Luo Ermu, you weren’t at the scene at the time, so how do you know there were peanut shells there?

Could it be that you were there at the time, or perhaps you went there later and placed the peanut shells?”

Hearing Xiang Yu calling him Luo Ermu, Luo Lin clenched his fists in anger, then glared at Xiang Yu and gritted his teeth, “Xiang Yu, don’t talk nonsense.”

Of course, Luo Lin wouldn’t admit to going there.

At that time, it was Miao Honglei’s subordinates who were dealing.

If Miao Honglei knew they were eyeing those goods, it might provoke Miao Honglei to go and settle things with Ding Yongwei.

Xiang Yu said calmly and confidently, “You know better than anyone whether I’m talking nonsense.

Are you jealous because you see me following Brother Miao Honglei?

Trying to stir up conflict, but you are underestimating Brother Miao Honglei.

Do you think the boss can be easily deceived?”

Xiang Yu spoke righteously and open-heartedly, successfully shifting their attention and moving the conflict from himself onto his accuser.

This was the so-called offensive as defense.

“You, you’re talking nonsense,” Luo Lin was so angry that he was lost for words and pointed at Xiang Yu, unsure of how to retort.

Seeing this, Miao Honglei snorted coldly and said, “You’d better leave.

Go back and tell Ding Yongwei not to worry about my affairs.

From today on, Xiang Yu is my brother, and no one can touch him.

Whoever crosses him is crossing me, Miao Honglei, and I will never let them off.”

Miao Honglei spoke bluntly, and even Pan Wenjie, who was behind him, was taken aback.

He detected a certain implication from the boss’s words.

No matter what Xiang Yu had done before, he didn’t care; he already considered Xiang Yu as a brother.

Miao Honglei was no fool; there had to be a reason Luo Lin came today to claim that Han Guohua was killed by Xiang Yu.

As Han Guohua’s elder brother, in theory, he should have avenged Han Guohua.

But the talent and rationality Xiang Yu displayed now completely surpassed Han Guohua.

Losing one Han Guohua and gaining a Xiang Yu was worth it.

So he took the opportunity while Luo Lin was at a loss for words to quickly state this conclusion, effectively silencing everyone.

“Big brother, but…” Pan Wenjie still wanted to argue, but with a look from Miao Honglei, the words he intended to say were swallowed back down.

“You will regret this.” Luo Lin glared at Xiang Yu with gritted teeth, then turned and left.

“Idiot.” Xiang Yu said disdainfully from behind, then paid him no further attention.

“Wenjie, did you listen to what I just said?” At this moment, Miao Honglei looked at Pan Wenjie.

Suppressing the frustration in his heart, Pan Wenjie replied, “Big brother, I remembered everything you said.”

Although Pan Wenjie said this, his hatred for Xiang Yu had only grown stronger.

Back when Xiang Yu hadn’t arrived, Miao Honglei would always speak to him as if negotiating, but now he was much colder.

“After this matter, no one is to mention it again; if anyone does, don’t blame me for being impolite.” Miao Honglei said, though in reality, this was meant for Pan Wenjie.

Understanding Pan Wenjie’s character, he was actually somewhat worried Pan Wenjie would secretly get rid of Xiang Yu.

After all, Xiang Yu had just arrived and he needed Xiang Yu to work for him.

“Xiang Yu, you haven’t made any notable achievements since your arrival, so you’ll need to start from the bottom and work your way up, do you understand?” Miao Honglei looked at Xiang Yu, then said softly.

“Big brother, I understand.

You just relax, I won’t disappoint you,” Xiang Yu assured him quickly.

Miao Honglei nodded in satisfaction, then glanced at Pan Wenjie, “Do we have a batch of goods coming in tomorrow?”

Pan Wenjie nodded quickly, “That’s right, big brother.

It’s provided by another client.

It seems like we’ve lost contact with those Thai guys from last time.”

That’s when Miao Honglei nodded and said, “Xiang Yu, you will be responsible for retrieving this batch of goods.

Wenjie will inform you about the specific timing.

Don’t let me down.”

Upon hearing about the deal tomorrow, Xiang Yu pretended to be very happy and said, “Big brother, rest assured.

With me handling it tomorrow, the job will be done beautifully to your satisfaction.”

“That’s good.

Once you handle this well, I will make you a squad leader, taking over Han Guohua’s previous role,” Miao Honglei said.

Xiang Yu was even happier upon hearing this, “Then I’ll definitely become the squad leader.”

Watching Xiang Yu’s foolish expression, Pan Wenjie sneered in his heart.

He was in charge of arranging this assignment; getting rid of Xiang Yu would be a matter of minutes.

Furthermore, given Miao Honglei’s obvious intent to groom Xiang Yu, such a person absolutely couldn’t be left alone—they must be dealt with swiftly and decisively.

“Xiang Yu, come with me.

I’ll tell you what you need to pay attention to for tomorrow,” Pan Wenjie said.
