33: Chapter 33 Sacrificing Zhao Tianba's Entire Family! Earning Millions

The entrance door to Cloud Top Palace was pushed open with a soft "click."

The lighting in the room was excellent; the afternoon sun streamed in unobstructed through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating the spacious living room brightly.

Lin Yue was sitting on the sofa with her knees hugged to her chest, looking at the plate of breakfast that had been prepared long ago.

The fried eggs and bacon on the table had long since lost their heat.

Hearing the door open, she snapped her head up, and her eyes, which were red and swollen like peaches, instantly lit up.

"Brother Feng!"

Lin Yue practically sprang off the sofa, not even bothering about the slipper she had kicked off, and rushed over barefoot, crashing into Qin Feng's arms.

"Are you okay? Did they give you a hard time? Did they...?" Lin Yue's voice was laced with tears as her hands frantically patted him down to check on him.

"I heard it's very dark in there, and they also... they also turn the air conditioning down low..."

"What are you thinking about? This is a society ruled by law, and they enforce the law in a civilized manner. I told you to stop watching those brain-dead TV dramas."

Qin Feng smiled and smoothed her hair, which was glowing golden in the sunlight, then casually picked up a piece of the cold bacon from the table and popped it into his mouth.

"The taste is not bad, though it would be better if it were hot."

"When is it that you're still cracking jokes!" Lin Yue was so angry she punched his chest, though her tears couldn't help but fall eventually.

"You scared me to death... If you hadn't come back, I was prepared to sell this house and then go..."

"Sell what? If you sell the house, where am I supposed to go back to?" Qin Feng swallowed the bacon and carried her back to the sofa.

"I just went to cooperate with an investigation, had a cup of tea, and talked about life."

"Look, didn't I come back completely unscathed? In broad daylight, could they have possibly eaten me?"

Lin Yue sniffled and was about to say something when an emergency news bulletin suddenly interrupted on the massive LCD TV in the living room.

The headline, in white text on a red background, was shocking.

【Breaking News in the City: Police Launch Thunderous Strike, Zhao Corporation's Organized Crime Gang Uprooted!】

On screen, dozens of police cars surrounded the Zhao family villa and the headquarters of Zhao Corporation.

The big shots who usually commanded the wind and rain in Sea City were now wearing black hoods, their hands cuffed behind their backs, being shoved into SWAT vehicles.

Especially Zhao the Tyrant, who was being held up by two people; even through the screen, one could feel the desperation of his dead-end situation.

"Upon investigation, Zhao Corporation has long entrenched itself in Sea City, suspected of organizing a mafia-style syndicate, money laundering, bribery, illegal detention, and many other serious crimes.

The police have already seized tens of billions in assets under its name..."

The anchorwoman's voice was passionate and powerful.

Lin Yue covered her mouth, her eyes wide with shock: "Oh my god... The Zhao family... That Zhao the Tyrant, is he really finished?"

That was a mountain that had pressed down on the heads of ordinary people in Sea City for over a decade. Yesterday, they were still arrogant and untouchable, and today they have completely collapsed? This reversal is faster than any TV drama!

Qin Feng leaned back against the sofa, watching the scene on TV, and said calmly:

"Those who commit many injustices are doomed to self-destruct; when heaven decides to take someone, it never checks the calendar."

He turned his head to look at Lin Yue, who was still dazed.

"Alright, stop watching. From now on, there will be no Zhao family or Li family in Sea City." Qin Feng took out his phone and tapped his fingers rapidly on the screen a few times.

"I scared our Teacher Lin just now, so take this money to calm your nerves.

Don't cook for the next few days; order takeout for whatever you want to eat, or go to the mall and go on a shopping spree, buy a few bags."

"Ding-dong."

Lin Yue subconsciously picked up her phone.

That long string of zeros made her pupils instantly dilate in shock.

【Alipay balance received: 1,000,000 Yuan】

"One, ten, hundred, thousand... One million?!"

Lin Yue's hand shook, and the phone slid directly into the crevice of the sofa.

She picked it up in a panic and looked at Qin Feng with a horrified expression,

"Brother Feng! Have you lost your mind? You transferred five hundred thousand just a moment ago, and now you're giving me another million? I can't possibly spend it all! Or is it that..."

She suddenly imagined that perhaps Qin Feng had embezzled the Zhao family's dirty money, which was why he was taken in for questioning this morning, and her face instantly turned pale.

"What are you imagining?" Qin Feng pinched her soft cheeks,

"This is investment income. Precisely because the Zhao family fell, my stocks rose, so we must celebrate."

It was a terrible excuse, but the money was real.

【Ding! Detected that the host has spent 1,000,000 Yuan on the goddess Lin Yue, triggering the wealth roulette!】

Qin Feng took a deep breath and silently recited the incantation engraved in his DNA.

"I am the King of Luck, sacrifice Zhao the Tyrant's whole family, explode for me!"

In his mind, the golden roulette wheel spun rapidly, accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder.

The pointer swept past the areas marked with only "1x" or "2x," but its speed did not slow down in the slightest.

Finally, it stopped steadily on a tiny golden sector.

【10x】

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for a burst of good luck! Triggered 10x cashback!】

【Cashback amount: 10,000,000 Yuan!】

【The funds have been safely transferred to the host's account in the form of a family fund.】

Ten million!

Although Qin Feng appeared as steady as an old dog on the outside, he was throwing punches wildly on the inside.

This is freaking snowballing! Fighting to support fighting, the more I fight, the richer I get!

Now, holding over twenty million in cash, in this territory of Sea City, as long as I don't court death, I can basically walk sideways.

Just at this moment, the phone placed on the coffee table started to vibrate.

Caller ID: Zhou Zhen.

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow; this old fox had smelled the scent and arrived.

He answered and put it on speakerphone.

"Qin... Young Master Qin." Zhou Zhen's voice came out of the speaker, carrying a hint of cautious probing, and even a bit of trembling,

"Are you... still resting at home?"

"Yeah, watching the news." Qin Feng's tone was lazy. "Brother Zhou, are you calling at this hour because you want to share your thoughts on the Zhao family's downfall?"

"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare!" Zhou Zhen gave two dry laughs; even through the phone, one could feel him wiping away sweat,

"I just wanted to ask, now that the Zhao family has fallen, they've left behind quite a lot of fat. There are many people outside eyeing it right now, and if you..."

Zhou Zhen didn't finish his sentence, but he was already imagining it: The Zhao family's downfall was definitely Qin Feng's doing!

Since it was an empire conquered by Qin Feng, Qin Feng must have had a purpose.

Qin Feng walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the city beneath his feet.

In the distance, in the heart of the CBD, at the top of a skyscraper reaching into the clouds, the four glittering golden characters "Zhao Corporation" looked exceptionally glaring at this moment.

"I have no interest in the Zhao family's messy accounts."

On the other end of the line, Zhou Zhen clearly breathed a sigh of relief. He wasn't afraid of Qin Feng eating the meat; he was just afraid that Qin Feng would take the whole pot and not even leave the soup for others.

"However—" Qin Feng changed the subject.

Zhou Zhen's heart immediately jumped back into his throat: "Please speak?"

Qin Feng reached out and pointed at the landmark building in the distance, even though Zhou Zhen couldn't see it.

"That building, the headquarters of Zhao Corporation, has a good location and is close to Cloud Top Palace. Brother Zhou, you have wild connections, help me work on this; I want to buy it."

Zhou Zhen was stunned on the other end for a full three seconds.

"Buy... buy it?" Zhou Zhen's voice changed pitch,

"Young Master Qin, that's the Zhao Corporation building! The landmark of Sea City! Even though it's been seized now, it's valued at at least several billion...

Of course, I know money is not an issue for you, but are you buying it to use as your new group headquarters?

If that's the case, I can help you contact the city..."
