We have received a lot of business from the Wu Family, so we have a cooperative relationship. Wen Ge (Li Liangwen) doesn’t want to ruin this relationship and affect future earnings.” Lin Chen said with a laugh: “So, the Wu Family is the financial backer of Heizhu, right?” Lai Yiliang shook his head: “No, Heizhu and the Wu Family only have some cooperative relationship. Heizhu is actually backed by Aotian Group.” Lin Chen frowned: “Aotian Group?” Looking at Lin Chen’s expression, Lai Yiliang carefully asked: “Big brother, have you never heard of Aotian Group?” Lin Chen smiled: “I’ve been in Pingjiang for less than ten days.” Lai Yiliang quickly explained: “Aotian Group is the leading real estate company in Pingjiang. Although the Wu Family is also in real estate, it is like a child compared to Aotian Group. Heizhu is a labor service company in name only, but in reality, it is Aotian’s private enforcer, handling various matters Aotian can’t be seen dealing with, such as relocation, debt collection, and threatening competitors.” Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Lin Chen frowned: “So, Li Liangwen is Aotian Group’s watchdog?” “Yes.” Lai Yiliang answered without hesitation: “Li Liangwen was originally affiliated with Aotian Group’s Chairman Zhao Yiheng. After Zhao Yiheng became powerful, he let Li Liangwen open Heizhu to recruit thugs and help him with some private affairs. On the surface, Zhao Yiheng would give Li Liangwen some projects, but Li Liangwen would not carry them out himself. Instead, he would subcontract them out and directly earn the difference in price.” “Li Liangwen is indeed Zhao Yiheng’s watchdog, biting whoever he commands. Li Liangwen and the Wu Family have a cooperative relationship, helping the Wu Family resolve many troubles. In return, the Wu Family lets Li Liangwen contract some projects. The reward from Zhao Hengyi is gratification, while the exchange from the Wu Family is a transaction.” Lin Chen stared at Lai Yiliang: “To kill a dog, you have to look at the master’s face. Now that I’ve killed Zhao Yiheng’s dog, will Zhao Yiheng seek revenge for Li Liangwen?” Making a bitter face, Lai Yiliang said: “Big brother, I don’t know about this. After all, only Zhao Yiheng himself knows how he feels about Li Liangwen.” Lin Chen didn’t make things difficult for Lai Yiliang because what he said was the truth. Lin Chen asked: “Are you planning to kill Wu Jiajun?” With gritted teeth, Lai Yiliang said: “Give me three days, big brother. In three days, I’ll definitely kill Wu Jiajun!” Lin Chen nodded: “Alright, since you’ve said that, I’ll give you a chance. In three days, either you die or he dies. Of course, you can also buy a plane ticket tomorrow and escape as far away as possible, I won’t have the idle time to chase after you.” Lai Yiliang let out a sigh of relief, at least he wouldn’t have to die today. “Big brother, everything I have is in Pingjiang. Unless I die, I won’t leave Pingjiang!” Lin Chen got up, pulled at his clothes, and gave out his phone number: “Call me if there’s any news.” Lai Yiliang immediately agreed: “Yes, big brother!” As Lin Chen walked toward the door, Lai Yiliang quickly opened the door that was closed earlier, respectfully standing by the door like a doorman. A dozen or so thugs in the corridor outside all looked over. When they saw Lin Chen appear at the door, confusion appeared on their faces. How did this guy come out alive? Didn’t they hear gunshots in the room just now? What’s going on? Did Wen Ge let him go? Seeing a group of people blocking the path, Lai Yiliang sternly yelled: “Make way, all of you!” Everyone moved out of the way with a splash. As Lin Chen walked forward, Lai Yiliang sent Lin Chen to the elevator with a diligent expression: “Big brother, I won’t send you off. I have to go back and clean up the mess.” Lin Chen nodded and pressed the button for the first floor. The elevator door slowly closed. As the elevator went down, Lai Yiliang’s shoulders sagged, sweat dripping from his forehead, his heart racing, and a feeling of relief after a narrow escape surged in his heart. This man is terrifying! Iron Fist and Evil Ghost were killed in seconds! A real expert who kills without blinking an eye! Lai Yiliang wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned around, and called out the names of a few confidants: “You stay, everyone else, leave.” After the thugs left, Lai Yiliang said in a deep voice: “Come in.” His confidants followed Lai Yiliang inside, and their expressions changed drastically at the sight of the corpses on the floor. Lai Yiliang commanded in a deep voice: “Dispose of their bodies properly, don’t alert anyone.” “Yes!” After his confidants silently cleaned up the corpses, Lai Yiliang took out his phone, noted down Lin Chen’s number, and then called Aotian Group’s Chairman Zhao Yiheng. “Director Zhao, this is Xiao Lai. I have something to report to you.” Zhao Yiheng’s voice was authoritative: “Speak.” Rather than mentioning the three-day agreement he made with Lin Chen, Lai Yiliang described everything else that had transpired and asked for guidance: “Director Zhao, what should I do now?” Zhao Yiheng coldly said: “A-Wen has been with me for many years, and I won’t let him die in vain. I’ll find someone to kill that kid. Also, Heizhu can’t collapse. You’ve been assisting A-Wen for so many years, and you’re familiar with the business. For now, you’ll manage Heizhu temporarily and report directly to me if there’s any issue.” Lai Yiliang responded with both respect and excitement: “Thank you, Director Zhao! I will do my best!” After hanging up, Lai Yiliang’s excitement disappeared momentarily. He narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and made another call. “Brother, I have a favor to ask. Help me keep an eye on someone, I need his specific whereabouts…”
