Chapter 943: Joining This Game
turned cold.Wang Zheng turned around to look at Li Qinglong’s parking spot. That tall, thin driver named Ah Dong was leaning against the Mercedes hood, looking provocatively at Wang Zheng. Moreover,...Chapter 943: Join This Game
Wang Zheng and Qiao Jing also got into the police car, but Director Gao was in the same vehicle with them.
"Miss, I'm sorry to trouble you. Could you please come with me to the police station It's just to prevent rumors from spreading. We'll be done shortly," Director Gao said respectfully, looking at Qiao Jing’s radiant face.
Train troops for a thousand days and use them when needed. If there was no one protecting him in Hong Kong, how could an inland rural boy like Director Gao have reached his current position It simply wasn't possible!
The reason being—years ago, he had been Qiao Jing's man!
Back then, when he was struggling at the bottom of society in Hong Kong and couldn't even speak up for his woman who was being bullied, it was Qiao Jing who helped him. She could be said to have paved the way for Director Gao’s success.
"It's fine. You've handled everything well," Qiao Jing said indifferently, her eyes devoid of emotions.
"These members of the Qiao family are influential figures in society. I can't keep them locked up for long; otherwise, higher-ups will intervene and public opinion would turn against us." Director Gao chose his words carefully before speaking cautiously.
"This is sufficient," Qiao Jing knew all too well how much influence the Qiaos had accumulated over the years in Hong Kong. Even if they were suppressed now, it was only temporary; their deep-rooted foundation would enable a powerful and swift counterattack.
Wang Zheng looked at Qiao Jing with a faint smile in his eyes. This woman finally found herself and her long-repressed courage. It seemed that the time for Qiao Jing to return to the Qiao family was not far off.
As for himself, when would he have the confidence to stand before Su Family's Lianxin Manor with an assault rifle in hand, leaving countless bullet holes on its magnificent gate
No doubt, that day couldn't be too far away either
The suburbs of the capital city, where a chill spring breeze blows.
A motorcycle was left by the side of a grass field. A man in a black jacket lay casually on the grass, wearing oversized sunglasses and chewing on a blade of grass with his arm propped behind his head, seemingly basking in the sun in a leisurely manner.
Half an hour later, a mountain bike stopped nearby. The rider was dressed in tight-fitting cycling gear and wore tea-colored goggles. He took off his goggles to reveal a face that was famous throughout the capital city and approached the man who had been lying on the grass. Taking a deep breath, he said, "The air out here in the suburbs is so much better than in the downtown area where the smog is heavy and unbearable."
"Then you should come to the suburbs more often," replied the sunglasses-wearing man indifferently. His voice was rich but carried a hint of laziness.
"Why did you choose this place as our meeting spot" The cyclist removed his goggles, revealing a face well-known in the capital city.
Su Tianran!
But what could Su Tianran be doing here Hadn't he been expelled from the Su family
"Because I like it," said the sunglasses-wearing man nonchalantly, which seemed rather dismissive of Su Tianran.
Su Tianran, however, didn't seem to mind: "That's quite a bold statement. But since I've already been expelled from the Su family, what could possibly remain that you would consider valuable"
"We're both smart people; no need for you to pretend to be clueless in front of me. Even if it looks like you’ve been kicked out on the surface, the fact is that your status within that family remains intact."
The sunglasses-wearing man took out a simple plastic lighter from his left pocket and lit himself an ordinary-looking red pine cigarette.
"What did you want to see me for Don't tell me it's just to bask in the sun, as I’m not one for that." Su Tianran waved away the smoke in front of him; he didn’t like secondhand smoke, especially when it was somewhat irritating.
"Have one, it's not bad. I've been smoking this all along," the sunglasses guy responded off-topic and then threw the cigarette pack and lighter onto Su Tianran without waiting for his response.
Su Tianran looked at the cigarette pack, took a cigarette out of it, put it in his mouth, and lit up.
If others knew that Su Tianran, who never smoked before, had started smoking, and was even quite skilled at blowing smoke rings, they would probably be shocked.
"How does it taste"
"It's a bit harsh, but very fragrant and strong," Su Tianran inhaled deeply again and watched as the smoke ring dissipated with the wind.
"Let's get to the point. No beating around the bush," said Su Tianran.
"Do you know about Hong Kong" The sunglasses guy looked at the rare white clouds in the sky, seemingly lost in thought.
"You mean Wang Zheng" Su Tianran shook his head with a smile, puzzled. "If I were to take action against him, there would be reasons, but you... I really can't think of why you would be interested in him."
"I'm interested because..." The sunglasses guy's lips curled into a slight smile: "...because he is one of the few people in this world who can pique my interest."
Su Tianran pursed his lips. "That doesn't make sense."
"In any case, I really want to play a game with him, a life-and-death game," The sunglasses guy pinched the end of his smoked cigarette and flicked it into the air; it drew an arc before hitting a little sparrow on the grass.
"Are you inviting me to join this game" Su Tianran seemed somewhat interested.
"Not bad, join me and you can help set the rules of the game," the sunglasses man was quite satisfied with Su Tianran's attitude.
"Alright, I'll join."
The moment Su Tianran finished speaking, he suddenly flipped over and sat up, taking advantage of the sunglasses man’s lack of attention to straddle him. With one hand grabbing his collar and the other clenched into a fist, he relentlessly struck the man's face!
"Bang!"
It seemed that Su Tianran had indeed used quite a bit of strength; with just a single punch, blood was already trickling from the sunglasses man’s lips!
"I knew it. The kidnapping of Xuanxuan in Las Vegas last time was done by you, right" Su Tianran angrily said as he tried to throw another punch but his fist was easily caught by the sunglasses man, rendering him completely immobile.
"Get off."
The sunglasses man twisted his body and kicked out with a foot, directly landing it on Su Tianran's chest. The latter was sent sprawling two meters away, clutching at his chest as he lay on the ground in pain, sucking cold air through gritted teeth.
"It was indeed me who did it," the sunglasses man wiped the blood from his lip with a casual smile, "You just figured that out"
"In any case, since you kidnapped Xuanxuan, I won't let you off easily," Su Tianran coldly said. In the previous incident in Las Vegas, he and Wang Zheng had almost met their doom trying to save Su Xuanyuan; it was all because of this person's machinations.
"But, don’t you think this is quite interesting Besides, your precious Su Xuanyuan didn't sustain any harm at all. Let’s just leave this matter buried and no one will ever speak about it again," the sunglasses man grinned: "I like games like these, so I invited you to join in; take ten minutes to consider."
"I'll join." After throwing that punch, Su Tianran didn't hesitate at all before agreeing.t’s not the Su Family, then who else could it be" Wang Zheng narrowed his eyes: "Who else knows that Chen Kang is a member of Dragon Scale Who else knows he's our comrade""Maybe others want to see us...
