Chapter 44 – In short, the advantage was his!
Longya's legs went weak, and he almost fell off his chair.
Twenty years?
He, the eighth war general of the Dragon Soul organization, was going to be locked up in a place like this for twenty years?
At this moment, he deeply regretted coming to China.
Damn it, if only he hadn't meddled with that stupid hotel!
"I'll keep trying to find a way. Don't worry, you might be out sooner than you think," Ye Chen comforted him.
Once he had control over all of Suzhou and Hangzhou, would it be that hard to get someone out of prison?
The conquest of the four major families was already nearing completion!
Although there had been some minor issues with the plan to control the Wang Family, it was still within his grasp.
Things were going smoothly with the Qin Family, and results would be seen soon.
With Chi Yin and a few other pawns in the Tang Family, it was only a matter of time before they fell as well.
Once the three families were taken down, the weakest Su Family would be easy to conquer!
In short, the advantage was his!
Before he controlled Suzhou and Hangzhou, Longya would just have to endure a bit longer.
Longya sighed, "Young Master Ye, I'll trouble you then. I hope I can get out soon and serve by your side again, just like before, making those little burgers for you."
"Alright, we'll see each other soon, brother," Ye Chen gave Longya a firm look before leaving the visiting room.
...
On Antique Street, in a shop called Debao Pavilion.
This shop was one of the top antique stores in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and it was owned by the Tang Family.
The person in charge of the shop was Zhao Gaoshen, a long-time employee of the Tang Family.
He had been working in this antique shop since he was a teenager, for over thirty years.
In terms of ability and various other aspects, he was quite outstanding and deeply trusted by the Tang Family.
"Young Master Tang, take a look at the ledger. This is last month's revenue. Our shop has been doing quite well these past few months," Zhao Gaoshen handed a ledger to Tang Yu. Despite the changing times, antique shops still preferred to keep records in ledgers.
"Alright, thank you for your hard work," Tang Yu smiled as he took the ledger and casually flipped through it.
He had just turned a couple of pages when a man and a woman walked in from outside.
Tang Yu glanced up, then quickly closed the ledger and hid behind a display cabinet, deliberately turning his back to avoid being recognized.
She looked around but didn't see anyone talking to her.
But the voice sounded familiar, like someone she knew.
What caught her attention more was the content of the words.
Throwing a snake into her house and playing the hero?
The Qin Family's feng shui problems were his doing?
She knew these words were pointing at Ye Chen beside her.
She glanced at Ye Chen, a trace of doubt in her eyes.
Could this seemingly harmless guy really be the culprit behind all this?
Or was she just hallucinating from lack of sleep?
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.
Ye Chen saw Qin Kexin staring blankly at him and thought she must be captivated by his handsome face.
So, he smiled more confidently and said, "Miss Qin, from my observation, your home's feng shui is indeed problematic, attracting negative energy."
"Relying on these antiques to improve feng shui isn't realistic. Here, I have a talisman. Take it home and see if it helps."
He took out a yellow talisman from his pocket and handed it to Qin Kexin.
"This talisman was taught to me by a master. It took me three months to make. As long as you wear it, it will protect you from negative energy."
[You're really good at lying. Three months to make this? More like three minutes.]
[This thing is just random scribbles, but it needs your blood.]
[Since you caused the negative energy, your blood will naturally repel it.]
[Sigh, poor Qin Kexin, falling for this scam, thinking this man is her knight in shining armor sent to save her.]
Hearing the voice again, Qin Kexin was finally sure she wasn't hallucinating!
Someone was talking to her, but only she could hear it.
She didn't understand what was happening.
But she felt a surge of anger.
If all this was true, she wouldn't let it slide!
However, without concrete evidence, she wouldn't confront him just yet.
